Cut Price Paid On Wool Tied With
Binder Irvine

Losses as high as seven cents on
each pound of wool were experienced
last year by Kentucky farmers who
tied their wool with ordinary binder
Irvine, instead of using paper Irvine,
according to L. ]. Horlacher, in
charge of the College of Agriculture
sheep work. who is suggesting that
farmers take steps to obtain a supply
of the proper kind of Irvine before
about three million pounds of wool
the shearing season opens. With
being produced annually, losses of
this kind amount to a considerable
item in the States sheep industry,
il is said.
Paper Irvine costs from 20 to 25
cents a pound and since each pound
is sufficient to tie about 40 fieeces,
the cost averages about one-half
cent a fleece or one-tenth of a cent
pound of wool. No more Irvine
should be used than is necessary to
go around the fleece once each way,
Mr.. Horlacher said.
In the past, buyers have been in
clined to discriminate against wool
tied with binder Irvine because fibers
from it adhere to the fleece and can
not be removed except with the use
of expensive machinery. If left in
the wool, these fibers cannot be dyed
and appear in the cloth as white
stripes which must be picked out by
hand. Wool containing these fibers
is classed with that containing burs,
ii is said.

Crop Growth Is Stunted When Colds
Lock Up Food

Crop Growth Is Stunted When Colds
Lock Up Food
Ciods are the most common cause
of poor seed beds and the resulting
decrease in the yields Of many crops,
r. E. Stephenson, soils specialist at
the College of Agriculture, is telling
Kentucky farmers in suggestions be-
ing given on soil tillage. They not
only prevent the termination of
many seeds but also result in stunt
ed plant growth because no clod
gives up its plant food to the grow
ing plant until pulverization takes
place, it is said. No matter how fer
tile the soil is, field of clods can
never give the maximum crop yields,
Mr.. Stephenson has pointed out. The
ideal seed bed is one made Of fine
soil properly firmed, he says.
Flowing is an important opera
tion in the preparation of the seed
bed and the prevention of clods.
Early blowing is best provided it
can be done when the soil is dry.
Good blowing not only will turn
under everything that is on the field,
in the way of manure and plant
growth, but also will crumble and
break the soil so that it will yield
readily to tillage.
LAS a general rule, clods are
caused by tramping over wet field,
blowing or cultivating when the soil
is too wet, and by lack of suffici-
ent tillage. Working a soil when it
is too dry also may cause clod forma-
ton. Tillage operations that give
best results are performed when the
soil is moist but not wet.
= "Since poor soils usually are
cloddier than fertile ones, one way
to rid a field Of these chunks is to
use manure and grow more legumes
for soil improvement. A clover sod
nearly always is friable and easily
cultivated. Organic matter and the
roots of plants tend to cause the
crumb formation necessary to good
tillage.
Freezing and thawing tend to
pulverize clods while the use of
limestone and wood ashes makes it
easier to crush them. Thorough
drainage improves the filth of wet
lands and makes it easier to get rid
of clods."

Good Spring Care OF Bees Will In
crease Honey Crop

Mild weather experienced through
out Kentucky during the past win
ter promises successful wintering Of
bees in practically all sections but
the harvesting OF a good crop OF
honey later in the season will depend
largely upon management of the
bees during the early spring. special
lists at the College of Agriculture say.
In case they have been packed in
winter cases, the bees should not be
unpacked until settled warm wealth
er, II. II. Jewett. one of the special
lists pointed out. When the winter
packing is removed too soon, sudden
changes in the weather often will re-
suit in the death OF a part OF the
young brood through chilling.
AS soon as the weather permits,
IT is well to clean the hive and make
sure that there is plenty OF food
available since the rearing OF a
brood requires large quantities.
Clean water also is necessity for
brood rearing. Each colony should
