Thinning Is Important
Operation With Apples

An apple crop of 100000 barrels Is
in prospect for this year, compared
with 100000 bushels in 1927, and
growers should thin apples so that
none but the highest quality will reach
the market, according to r. S. Marsh,
University of Illinois. Apple growers
of the Northwest who produce the
fancy ten-cent apples consider thin
ming an important operation in the
growing of fruit.
thinning varieties Of apple so
that only one fruit is left on each spur
is standard Middle Western recon-
mendation," he says. "Apples of vari-
cites like Northwestern Greening and
Wolf River get big enough without
thinning. Yellow Transparent, Dutch
ess, Jonathan, Delicious, Grimes, Ben
Davis, 'Gano, Winesap and others are
varieties that respond proftably,
through size increase. to thinning"

Agricultural Hints

The leading potato growing state
is now Minnesota.
In the United States there are ST.
100000 acres of idle land fit only for
growing trees, that must be put to
work.
Many successful pig producers add
tankage or linseed meal to the mineral
mixture to make it more palatable to
the growing pigs.
Soy bean plants are somewhat more
tolerant of frost than corn, but other
wise the temperature relations of the
two crops are very similar.
Soy beans prefer soils which are In
good filth and well supplied with or
garlic matter and moisture, but they
will make very good growth on sandy
or poor soils, if fertilizer is used ami
the soil is not too acid. The crop re-
spends to lime, but is fairly tolerant
of acid soils.

Farm Business
Analysis Helps
Reviews Are Source of Valu-
able Information for
the Farmers.

prepared by the United States Department.
of Agriculture.b zf
Economic reviews by state agricul-
tural colleges and the United States
Department of Agriculture in which
the farm situation and general supply
and demand factors that affect agri-
culture are analysed are becoming an
important new service for farmers.
The reviews are prepared by trained
farm business analysts. They present
facts and interpretations intended to
guide producers in adjusting produc-
ton to market demands.
A survey just completed by a COM
mittee of the outlook conference of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture shows that Is state agricultural
colleges in addition to the federal De-
partment of Agriculture now are is
suing, monthly, or more frequently,
publications which make economic in
formation available to farmers in
more or less popular form. Several
additional states are contemplating
the issuance of similar publications.
Start of Service.
The application of this type of serv-
ice which is freely used in the in
dustriaI world, by furnishing farmers
with economic analyses of agricultural
conditions, was started shortly after
the termination of the war with the
issuance by the Unietd States Depart
ment of Agriculture of publication
called ''The Agricultural Situation"
The publication, brief monthly sum-
mary of economic conditions and pros
poets affecting farmers, was in quick
demand as presenting basic facts
which could be used by farmers to
make readjustments to changed eco
nomic conditions in domestic and
world markets.
Demonstration of the need by farm
ers for this type of information led to
the establishment of similar service
by the state agricultural colleges, until
now more than One-third of the col
leges are issuing economic reviews
dealing with farm conditions. The
characteristic common TO most or
these publications is an effort to pre-
sent the basic factors which make up
the current picture of production, move
ment, consumption, and price of farm
products Some states hold chiefly to
the presentation of their own re-
search results; others interpret the
current data of worldwide origin.
Part of Broad Plan.
The economic reviews are part of
broad program in which the United
States Department of Agriculture and
the state colleges are linked together,
and which seeks to help the farmer to
adjust his business as proftably as
possible to the requirements of the
market. The educational aspects of
these publications, says the committee.
have been and should be strictly adj
hered to.

Find Harmful Worms on
Several of Bush Fruits

Currant worms damage currants and
gooseberries, according to information
which has been collected by r. s.. Her
rick of the Iowa Horticultural society.
These worms injure the crop by eat
ing the leaves on the bushes, thereby
causing the berries to be small due
to lack of proper nourishment. Where
these worms are present, spray the
bushes with a solution of one-half
ounce of lead arsenate per gallon of
water. If there is mildew on the
leaves, one ounce of dry lime-sulphur
should also be added.

Delicacy for Cows

Good pasture grass holds place in
which no other feed can quite fill. The
ability of grass to produce milk is gen.
orally overestimated, and COW can
not maintain heavy flow Of milk on
grass alone. Cows giving more than
% pounds of milk day or recently
fresh cows should receive grain in pro-
portion of production.
