only a very few good hickory
shafts can be produced from ev

of course, gives some golfers
better clubs than others. 1t also
gives every golfer a different

however, provides every golfer
with practically the same quality

gives the 100 and over player
just as good clubs as the PROBES

Golfers say that these new
steel shafts make their clubs feel
good and hang right. They are
lighter than hickory 50 that the
weight of the club is brought
lower and the balance is consc-
quently more perfect. This nice

Mice and rabbits often do serious

drying out and dying by packing with

TWO RARE ORCHID SPECIMENS
Central America Can Boast of Two
of the Most Perfect Of Beau
tiful Flowers.

A quaint little orange orchid, odor-
less, very common in Central America,
is the Spidendrum Radicans, locally
called the Dutch Shoe" because of its
fancied resemblance to tiny sabot.
The Monkey" orchid, more curious
than beautiful, has greenish, small
flowers growing in thick clusters, sus-
pended from whorls of glossy leaves.
Great quantities of it grow on the
dead stumps of the overlooked land
forming lagoons in Gatun lake. A
popularity of the Monkey orchid is
that when domesticated its flowers do
not develop fragrance until they are
three days old. Another odd species
mimics q white violet, not only in
size and shape, but in the exquisite
violetlike fragrance which the bios
som gives out in the late afternoon
only. 1t has no fragrance at any 9TH
er time and the tiny flowers last sew
eral days.

CREOSOTE TREATMENT
is MOST ECONOMICAL
Treated Posts Are Sign of Sound
Judgment.
Large Saving is Made in Replacement
Where Short-LiVed Timber is
Used-Decay Is Less Rapid
in Northern States.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture)
Although more expensive at the out
set, creOsoted posts are generally more
economical to use than many kinds
of untreated, short-lived woods, be-
cause of their much greater lasting
qualities, the forest service of the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture has determined. The exceptions
would be i'm remote localities with
cheap wood and labor, and where it
would be expensive TO obtain creOsote
The large saving in the replacement
charges which ordinarily mount up so
high i'm maintaining fence, and the
use of cheap and inferior kinds of
woods i'm the first place, much more
than Offset the increased cost Of
thorough treatment with creosOte.
Treated posts are good investment
and their use where lasting woods are
scarce or expensive is sign Of sound
judgment in farm management.
The best treatment is that which
results in the deepest penetration into
the wood with the least absorption Of
creosote. The butts of the posts
should he placed for one to two hours
I'm creosote heated to a temperature of
$50 degrees to 800 degrees f. 1t is
important to treat the wood to a height
Of foot above the proposed ground
line. In the southern states the entire
post should then be submerged into
oil, at so degrees to 100 degrees f.,
for one or two hours, or for such n time
as Is necessary to get good penetra-
ton. In the North. where decay is
less rapid the hot treatment Is APP
piled only to the butts, which are
allowed to remain for two or three
hours in the cooling process, the tops
being treated by painting or dipping
in creosote.

ORCHARD
CLEANINCS
TROUBLES IN APPLE STORAGE
Faulty Construction Of Houses Can Be
Remedied by Making Few
Slight Changes.

prepared by the United States Department
or Agricultural
Trouble with apples spelling in COM
mon storage many times Is traced to
faulty construction of the storage
house that can be overcome by slight
changes or better management, the
United States Department OF Agrlcul-
ture has found. The first considera-
ton. 1t Is said, is the condition of the
fruit when Ii is stored. Apples that
are bruised or diseased, too green or
overripe, or that are of a variety
known to keep but a short time can
not be stored satisfactorily.
Even If the apples are carefully Sc
lected, the fruit may not keep because of
certain conditions in the storage house,
particularly those relating to tempera-
ture. The storage house must be like
a thermos bottle, keeping the heat out
during the warm days and holding 1t
in during the very cold ones. This re-
suit can be obtained only if the build
ing Is properly ventilated and In
sulated. Insulation is effected by fill
ing the hollow walls with ground cork,
mineral wool, shavngs, or other ma
terial that will keep the heat from
passing through. SO that there will
he no leak, the doors are insulated the
same as the walls, and there should be
as few windows as possible.
Ventilation Is provided by means Of
openings near the ground, under the
floor, for cool air TO enter and air
shafts leading upward from the ceiling
to carry off the warm air These are
kept open during the night or the
cooler part Of the day-in the fall
and are closed during the hot hours.
The arrangement Of the boxes In the
storage house has much to do with
proper ventilation. The best arrange
ment is one that permits the air to
circulate around each separate box.

When the buds burst and the bark
slips easily or may be peeled. in the
spring, the bridge CRAFTS may be In
serted. Healthy shoots from last years
growth should be used for the pur-
pose. Make the scions little longer
than the injured places, with long
slanting cut at each end. Fit them
closely against the side of the tree,
under the bark, and spring them into
position. If scions are long. fasten
the ends to the tree with half-lnch
brads.
Cover the edges Of the wound around
the graft with grating wax and tie
with strips OF cloth. Smear the en-
tire region, covering all the injured
and grated parts with the following
mixture: Clay and fresh COW dung,
equal parts, softened with water to
make a paste. Bank with sods and
earth. If the injury goes too high for
this wrap with old carpet, burlap or

more extensively throughout the corn

Purchase Price is Half of Cost.
In fattening steer the combined
operating expenses usually more than
equal the original purchase price Of
the feeder. The factors considered In
operating expenses are feed, labor,

of this expense. All the other items
are generally balanced by the manure
