Care Needed to
Plant Windbreaks


The extension hofiieullurisl OF the
Nebraska agricultural college, in an
article on the planting OF wind
breaks, recommends the following
procedure:
The evergreen type oi tree Is
The best variety ior planting, al
though Il requires certain amount
OF patience in getting this type
started. The evergreen makes the
best wind break about the house and
abou, the feed lot as Il gives pro-
lection during winter, which the de-
eiduous trees do not Three yafie-
ties are recommended. all oi which
are rapid growers aud vary IN choice
according 10 the section OF the state.
I'm preparing 10 plant trees. the
ground should be thoroughly plowed
and disked where tlhe windbreak Is
10 go. One row OF trees is sufii-
cient. though two rows arc better,
In plowing the width OF the slri6
should be decided by whether one
or two rows are 10 be planted.
"'rhe trees should he planted 10 to
Is feet apart. and II two rows are
planted the second row should be
spaced the same distance bu. the
trees placed in the spaces between
the trees in the other row. II a
quick effect is desired temporarily.
row Of dcciduous trees such as
cotton wood. poplar or mulberry
might be planted 10 or Is feet to
the south OF the cvergrcens.
Care must be taken as few
minutes OF exposure to dry winds
or bright sun at planting will coagu-
late the pi,chy sap and the trees will
rot grow. The roots should be
protected, either in muddy water or
in moist dirt or moss. They may
be planted just as any other trees,
care being taken to tap the earth
about the roots. During the first
few years they may be handled in
various ways. either cultivated
thoroughly during the summer, or
with four or five inches OF
straw. The latter is better for the
average farmer.
"ln purchasing trees, the smaller
sizes, from eight to ten inches in
height. are preferred, as there will
be a smaller loss in transplanting."

Fourteen Varieties Of Corn
in Gage County Test Field

Bcatrice.-Fourtcen types and
varieties OF corn will be planted
side by side on the farms OF c. L.
Thornburg and Joe Scheve by the
Gage county farm bureau, in order
to determine the values OF the Diff
fcrent kinds, in tests planned by
Boyd Rist, county extension agent,
and P. H. Stewart OF the agronomy
department Of the agricultural col
lege. The different varieties will be
harvested separately in the fall to
determine the yields, says Mr.. Rst.
There are as many types OF corn
as there are ideas regarding their
merits" states Mr.. Rist. "Some
farmers favor the rough shoe peg
kernel and others the dimple dent,
or smooth kernel. Many also in
sist on the fancy ear, the one that
is well-filled over the tip and is
smooth and uniform throughout. The
tests are expected TO develop the
choicer types"

ing coil rod. From the last named

the insulation. q
When a sensitive spot is touched
on the galena crystal in the detector
by the hair wire that comes with

TellProperW Way
toPlant Trees
Careless Handling Partly Re
sponsible for Large Pro.
portion Of Newly Plant
ed Trees Dying.

Lincoln, Improper planting OF
careless handling OF trees before
planting Is partly responsible Tor a
large proportion of newly-planted
trees dying the iifs, year, according
TO horiiculluris,s OF the college OF
agriculture. The roots oi the trees
should be protected from exposure
10 sun and wind during the plant
ing operation. these horiieulturisis
say. which may be done by wrapping
them IN wet gunny sacks or placing
them in barrel OF pail OF thin mud.
The important things TO bear IN
mind in planting trees. according TO
the hor,ieulturists. are:
Need Large Hole.
The holc must be large enough
10 receive the roots without cramp-
ing aud deep enough SO ,ha, tho
tree will stand three OF four inches
deeper than il was in the nursery.
Some loose. moist. surface dirt
should be placed in the bottom OF the
hole.
"fhe trees should be inserted in
the hole so that the lowest pcrman-
ent branch would be on the south
west side Of the tree and the tree
leaned so that side 10 coun,eract the
tendency TO grow 10 the north.
"The dirt should be iirmcd by
stamping at least twice during plant
ing process. In order to pack the
soil firmly about the roots, at least
two or three inches should be left
as a mulch"
Pack Soil Firmly.
The mistake frequently is made in
planting trees and other plants OF
not getting the soil firmly packed
about the roots or allowing al.
spaces about the roots, state the hor-
'iculturIsts. This may be prevented
BY shaking the tree up and down as
the first is applied.
Turning to tree pruning, the hor-
.iculturitsts advise that pruning
should begin when they are planted,
eaving two or three branches in ad-
lition to the central leader. The
owest OF these branches should be
or the southwest side 10 prevent sun
;cald and should be four or five
nches apart and OIL different sides
,f the trunk in order to avoid

For the benefit OF radio enthusiast sts

For the benefit Of radio enthusiasts
who care to build their own recciv-
ing sets, The Bee today begins
series of instructions, on how to
build the necessary parts. With d.
rections followed carefully, the anna
teur should be able to receive from
40 to 50 miles with crystal detcctor
set all the broadcasting OF market
and grain reports, musical entertain-
ments and latest news.
This crystal detector set requires
no batteries and may be built at q
nominal cost. The following ma
terials are needed, as explained by
Fred Swain, radio expert Of Onla-
ha:
One tube. 8 inches diameter. s inches
Two wood blocks, 4x4li.
Two round wood pieces to fit in ends
Of tube.
One X inch square brass rod inches
long. @
One slider.
one-half pound No. 20 cotton covered
wire
One crystal detector.
One wood block Sx3xts.
Four pieces Of tinfoil 2x4 inches.
Oil or tissue paper to separate foil.
six binding posts.
Receivers.
Directions.
Mr.. Swain's directions follow:
Wind the tube with the No. %
wire, leaving one inch margin at
each end; then fasten ends Of wire
securely. Nail the round pieces of
wood i'll the center Of the two square
blocks and fit them on ends of the
tube, glueing them securely.
The slider may be purchased for
few cents or it may be made by
cutting a quarter-inch grove in one
side Of small block Of wood and
fastening a 3-inch strip Of brass Or
copper over the groove, allowing
two inches to project. over which
should be bent downward at an
angle so as to press on the coil. The
slider should be placed on the rod
and the rod fastened to the top and
in the center of the wooden blocks.
This will allow the slider to be
moved freely back and forth along
the coil. Then scrape the insulation
off the coil along the path the point
Of the slider moves so that it will
make a connection with the wire.
A binding post should be mount
ed on the Side of one Of the blocks
and the end OF the wire fastened to
mains unconnected A second bind
ing post should be fastened to the rod
at the end opposite to the other
binding post.
q The detector should be purchased
from a dealer, together with the ga
lena crystal.
Condenser
The condenser is made by sep
arating each piece Of tinfoil with a
piece of oil or tissue paper. Each
piece OF oil or tissue paper must be
little larger than the tinfoil so
that no two pieces of tinfoil will
touch. However, the top and third
piece should protrude from one side
and the second and fourth should
protrude from the opposite side and
allowed to touch. The condenser is
then placed on the 6x3xH block and
strip OF wood tackled across to
hold it firmly in place. A binding
post should be mounted on
each of the protruding tinfoil
edges and fastened into the wood.
Connections.
Connection of the simple apparatus
is as follows:
Aerial lead-in wire. should be at
tachcd to the binding post on the
side Of one of the blocks of the
turning coil. From the same bind
ing post attach wire that will lead
to one Of the posts of the detector. |
