WHAT WE AE LOSING
8 one of the higgest musical en-.

j. H. Catron, Jr., of the Corbin
Buick Co., in speaking to his broth
er Frank, of this city, stated that
droves of tourists are going via
Williamsburg and Jellico and that
they are anxiously enqulring as to
this route. Money being spilled else
where that might be coming to
Knox y.-Barbourville Advo-
cate.
4 Barbourville is not the only town
along the route of the Dixie High
way that is losing business. Pine
vile Middlesboro and Cumberland
Gap would be getting a share of
this business. The most condemn
ing fact to Barbourville and Knox
county is that they are responsible
for the business they are losing and
also causing other sections to lose
on the account of their neglect to
complete the road thru their county
The people of Bell county are hop
ing that the Advocate will be able
to wake them up to action down in
Knox county and have this road com
pleted before another year Is gone.

CULTIVATE ALL FRUIT TREES
Just as Essential in Orchard as for
Any Other crop-Tends to
Conserve Moisture.

1t Is just as essential to cultivate
fruit trees as any other growing crop.
Sometimes the trees are plowed In the
spring and left the rest OF the year
without any further care so far as
cultivation Is concerned. An excep-
tion Is where cultivated crop is
growing between the trees, says D. c.
MoOring, extension hort1culturtst,
Oklahoma A and NJ. college. While
crop may be grown between the trees
so long as 1t does not compete with
the trees for the same moisture and
plant food. Therefore, each year as
the trees grow. move the crop fur
ther away from the trees and when
the trees are well into bearing cease
growing a spring crop among the trees
at all.
A soil that is well cultivated Will ~
catch much more moisture. including
rains and SHOWS; (2) conserve the
moisture; (3) keep down grass and
weeds; (4) aerate the soil, that is,
permit OF free air circulation, which
Is necessary to the life and develop
ment of the roots.
The first cultivation In the spring
should be four or five inches deep with
whatever available tool Is at hand. Be
careful not to skin the trees.
In case your trees are growing In
the yard, where 1t is not practical to
use horse power In cultivation,
spade, shovel or hoe may be used.
Where a hand tool Is used. loosen the
soil under the tree and at least a foot
or two beyond the extent Of the limbs.
The cultivation should begin In
March or early April and continue un-
til midsummer under normal condi-
tions, and during the dry season the
cultivation should continue until the
last Of the summer. After the first
cultivation. which is the deep one, the
other CIVILIZATIONS should be merely to
establish a soil mulch.
