Grating Is Most
Satisfying Task
Scions Should Be Taken Be-
fore Buds Begin to Start
Leaf Growth in Spring.

One Of the most satisfying jobs that
one can engage In at this season is
grating fruit trees. 1t is not diff
cult operation and the increased pro-
duction OF good fruit will repay the
cost many times in coming years,
says the Ohio Farmer.
The scions should be taken from
wood of the previous seasons growth,
of trees of good variety and good
thrifty condition. They should always
be taken before the buds have begun
TO start leaf growth. If the sclons are
TO be taken some distance or kept for
any length of time before being set,
the earlier in the spring they are cut
the better. If they can be set at once
they may be cut and set the same
day. This may be done during the first
warm days of spring.
Trimming the scionS for setting de-
mands some care. Leave either two or
three buds on the scion-rnree pre-
ferred. The top should be cut smooth
ly and close 10 the top bud. In trim

Spring Ideal Time for
Fertilizer ApDlicatiOn

Fruit trees should never be fertilized
in the fall unless done late enough to
have no effect upon their growth or
maturity. The ideal time for fertilizer
application is In the spring before
growth begins. 1t Is at this time that
the trees need their greatest stimula-
tion and also the time that the avail
able plant food in the soil is present
In the least amount.
According to the great majority of
fertilizer experiments, it has been
found that young fruit trees are very
little benefited by any kind Of fertil-
izer except those containing nitrogen.
For this reason it would not be a good
plan TO use a mixed commercial fer
tillzer. The results secured from nj
trate Of soda alone will more than
justify the cost and on weak soils its
use can hardly be profitably spared !!
Manure or legumnous cover crops
turned under also supply nitrogen and
humus.

Value of Pure Bred
SireS Demonstrated
Scrub Steer Without Breed
ing Brings Low Price.

prepared by the United States Department
OF Agriculture.)
The utility of pure bred live stock
was impressively demonstrated at the
Myron Straton Home Farms of Colo
RADIO Springs, Colo, recently, according
TO reports to the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture The demon
stration was supplementary to the ed
ucational tour through Colorado Of the
Pure Bred Sire Special" over the lines
of the Colorado & Southern and the
Burlington railways.
Two two-year-old steers fed alike
for five and One-half months in the
feed lots were slaughtered and n com
pariSon Of thepcarcasses made. One
dressed carcass weighed 715 pounds
this steer came from a herd headed
by pure bred Hereford sire. The
other one weighed 470 pounds il was
a common steer without breeding.
When marketed, the better animal
brought 10 cents a pound wholesale,
while the scrub brought only u cents.
This difference in price, together with
liLS hllltIcilCe III weight, gave the
Hereford steer money value more
than double that Of the common steer.
The dressing percentage Of the Here
ford was 81 per cent and that of the
scrub was only AZ per cent
The butcher in charge of the dem
onstration said 1--WE have to peddle
beef such as this from the scrub, and
force 1t on our trade because we can
not get enough Of the better kind to
supply the demand
Superintendent ]. M. Gould of the
Straton Home Farms said IF we
could get the better grade steers, bear
ing the stamp Of quality that comes
from pure bred sires, we would take
them in preference TO scrubs. They
make more economical gains and bring
more per pound, and more pounds per
steer"

Number Of Remedies Are
Useful in Killing Lice

Calves infested with lice do not
thrive. Any one of q number Of RENE
dies may be used to rid calves of lice.
The most effective treatment is wash
ing or dipping. There is little danger
from colds when the calves are
washed with a coal-tar dip solution.
OF course, one must use judgment and
pick warm day and after washing
the calves, dry them by rubbing with
dry cloths or blanketing until they are
dry. The dip has a warming effect
which helps keep the calves from
taking cold.
A scrubbing brush is good to apply
the dip solution with. Make up the
dip according to the directions Of the
manufacturer. This washing should
be repeated In ten days or two weeks
to get the second brood after II
matches.
Some may object to washing the
calves or the weather may NOT be IA
vOrable. In such cases q. powder NAV
he used until the lice can be totally
destroyed by the use of LIQUID. So
dunn fluOride may be busted on the
affected parts. The lice are found
along the neck and back. Louise pow
ders are all right for temporary relief
and should be repeated in ten days
for the second hatch. A good powder
can be made as follows: Sulphur. two
pounds; sabadilla seed, one pound,
and pyrethrum powder, one pound.
This should be busted on and repeat
ed in two weeks. Another remedy is
linseed oil applied occasionally dur
ing the winter.

Ration Recommended by
Iowa Dairy Department

A COW, in order TO produce well dur
ing her entire lactation period, must
get some grain while dry. The thin.
weak COW that has rustled in the corn
stalks all winter, is not going to give
q very generous supply of milk when
she freshens, nor will she give any
milk very long.
While dry, feed plenty Of alfalfa hay
and silage. Ground oats, three parts
bran, two parts; oilmeal, one part and
as much corn as the condition OF the
SOW demands, Is a ration highly recon-
mended by the dairy department Of
Iowa State college. In case the COW
gets too fat and just before calvlng,
cut out the corn.

Location of Windows in
Hog House Is Important

A hog house placed in an east and
west position makes more efficient use
of its windows than If placed in a
north and south p1ltion. That is to
say. that each square foot Of glass in
an east and west house will furnish
more hours Of direct sunlight on the
pen floors than in north and south
house.
The location Of the windows has
much to do with the success Of q
hog house. In making plans for a hog
house. the approximate farrOwing date
for the spring litters should first be de.
termined and the windows placed &C.
cordingly.

thicker than the other. Then place
the thick part at the outside Of the
cleft in the stock. This Is to afford O
better pressure at the point Of con-
tact Of the growing bark, or cambium.
of both scion and stock, and result in
a better union.
Cut the limb to be grated either
squarely or with sloping cut. Use q
saw with fine teeth. A meat saw, or
special pruning saw is best for this
work. Then split the stock with the
grating chiSel, making clean cut
down as far as the scion is to be set.
With the point Of the wedge shaped
part Of the tool wedge open the split
and insert the sciOnS, being careful to
see that the growing bark comes in
contact with that Of the stock. This
may be assured by leaning the scion
slightly outward at the top in such q
way that the line Of growing bark
will cross that of the stock at one
point.
Then apply the grating wax, cover
ing the cleft, the top of the stock. the
sides Of the cut and the tips Of scions.
Set two in each stock and later in the
season, or during the following winter
cut off the weaker one Of the two
This remaining graft will soon become
as large as the branch in which ii is

Grating wax is made in several
ways, but the following formula is ex-
cellent: Common resin, lbs. bees
wax, 2 lbs; beef or button tallOw, l
Id. Melt all together and pour into a
bucket or tub Of cold water until cold
enough 10 pull like taffy. Grease the
hands well and pull II until 1t is q
straw color. 1t should be kept warm
so as to work better. On cold day
the bulk Of 1t may be left inside, and
only taken out as needed
While removing the limbs to be
grated trim out other nearby branches
so that the young scion may get plenty
Of sunlight, but still not so much as to
expose the tree unduly.
