Ihe location of Il canning factory Is
determined by the suitability uf the
section for the growing of peas and
equitable prices, sufficiently large
crops in the vicinity to run the plant
at its full capacity for Il reasonable
length of time. The pea crop is
usually grown under contract The
canning company usually specifies the
varieties and acreage TO be planted,
often provides the seed. and decides
the time to harvest. From 10 to 10
acres Of peas will maintain fair ro-
thti"n balance for farm of 100 acres
Such crops as alfalfa and clover
may be sown rs companion crops with
peas. In many sections of the country
where the early types of peas are
harvested during the first part Of June
the land may he fitted Immediately
for Some other crop. often q poor
crop of peas may be deliberately
turned under without harvesting to
get the secondary effect upon any sue
ceedng crop. The increase with wheat
following this practice has been noted
in New York state as varying from
I" IS bushels per acre. Some farm
ers believe that marked improve
ment is also seen on the hny crop and
on the pasturage which follows the
wheat.
General Suggestions.
Good drainage is very important
Fall blowing is recommended where IT
can he practiced without injury to the
land, and thorough filming of the top
layer of soil ut planting time. Weeds
are partly prevented by the early
working of the ground, by the heavy
cover formed by the pea vines, and
also by the early harvesting CT the
crop. Stable manure, when available,
may he applied with advantage. Many
growers prefer to apply the manure
to the previous crop rather than d.
rectly to the peas. Manure mixed
with decayed pea vines should not be
used as this practice Is liable to
spread diseases affecting the crop.
The growing Of peas increases the
nitrogen content OF the soil. Iuocula-
! ton Of the seed will often give an
increase Of 100 to 700 pounds Of peas
per acre.
Seed should be procured from a
reliable source. 1t should be from
the crop Of the previous year and
not a blending Of new and old seeds.
The time for planting and harvesting
is determined by the locality. Methods
Of harvesting and practices followed
in diSpOSing OF the pea vines are dis
cussed in the bulletin, which is avail
able on application to the Department
Of Agriculture, Washington, D. c.

MAGPIE A 'FEATHERED FlEND'

Although n great lover Of birds, I

from Acushnet, Mont, to the New

knew they were thieves, but l had to
live on western stock ranch before
realizing they were little demons.

the poor brute alive.
Two incidents came under my own
observation. We had an old horse out
at pasture that we valued for the
work she had done. After time we
discovered that the magples were
"working' on her and had already
made terrible sore on the poor crea-
ture just above her shoulder We put
her in the corral to give her extra feed
and wash and treat the sore. To our
establishment the magpies still kept
after her. They seemed to know we
would not dare shoot at them when
they were on the back OF the horse for
fear Of killing her. Time after time
we tried to get them when flying to
and from their dreadful feast, but

obliged to keep the horse in the barn
until the sore healed. 1t was the only
way she could get rid Of her tormen-
tors.

RATS MULTIPLYING RAPIDLY

This pest is one of the most serious
sources of loss to the farmer and poul-

fact that they seem to hold their own

4
strength shown by second division
clubs, notably Detroit in the American
and Cincinnati and Philadelphia in the
National, proved an outstanding fea-
ture Of the first week OF intersectional
clashes and noticeably frightened the
major league pennant races.
The New York clubs met stronger
opposition from their western rivals
as had been expected, but retained
their places at the top. st. Louis,
Pittsburgh and Chicago were closely
punched in that order behind the
worlds champs, while the Yankees
and st. Louis continued TO make it a
two club affair in the American, the
slim margin Of a half game separat-
ing the rivals as a result OF Detroits
second straight victory over Higgins
crew.
The Giants off 10 a flying start in
tho west, dropped the last two games
OF the st. Louis series and were
BANKED by Chicago Saturday but a
victory today over Alexander and the
Cubs while the Cardinals lost to Phil
adelphia increased their lead to four
games again.
Hard hitting and good pitching put
Pittsburgh back in the first division,
the Pirates collecting an average OF
~ hits per game, while the Phillies
displayed the greatest strength they
have shown this season by taking four
straight from the skidding Cubs. Chi
cage with it's pitching staff slumping
badly has lost six out of the last
ond to fourth place. Alexander, bank
ed upon as the mainstay OF the hurl-
ing corps lost his fourth straight
game today.
Cincinnati, behind improved pitch
ing and consistent batting, gained in
to race. The Boston Braves broke
even in the first week OF the invasion,
while Brooklyn unable to make its
hits count, lost six straight but won
today from Cincinnati.
Ty Cobb's Tigers batted harder than
any OF their American League rivals
taking four straight from Boston, MAX
Ing It two out of three today for the
Yankees and threatening to enter the
first division.
The Philadelphia Athletics with an
army of home run hitters, proved they
will be troublesome for any contender
this season, breaking even in a series
OF smuggling bees with Cleveland and
ST. Louis.
Washington was unable to stop the
Browns; iris Speakers tribe was
handicapped by ineffective hurting,
while Boston, after a disastrous series
with Detroit, came back TO take pair
from the White Sox who lost a hard
fought series with the Yankees.
Jess Barnes no-hit performance
against the Phillies, triple play by
Kopf Ford and Halke OF the Braves
against Cincinnati, and fresh earn
age OF home run hitting featured the
week. Ken Williams, st. Louis rival
for Babe Ruth's crown, increased his
total to II, while Ty Cobb showed that
his batting eye is undimmed by clout-
ing out homer, three doubles and
a single off F'aber OF the White Sox.
