LAND NOT FITTED FOR
CROPS GOOD FOR TREES

Growing trees on land that is not
used for ordinary farm crops is ad-
vised by Parker Anderson, forester
with the agricultural extension serv-
ice of the University of Minnesota.
This practice will bring such lands
into a productive state and delay the
time when resources will approach
exhaustion.
There are many reasons why
states and municipalities should ex-
tend their ownership of forest lands,
especially as many villages have idle
tracts near by" says Mr.. Anderson.
"But the greatest contribution to this
movement can be made by individuals
who own most of the land and are
therefore in position to attack the
problem on the largest scale.
Forest planting should become a
part of land use on farms having
acres of a non-agricultural nature.
If forstery becomes a part Of agrlcul-
ture or land use, the increase in the
volume and value of wood grown
as farm enterprises should be OF

GARDENERS WILL TEST
MULCH PAPER METHODS

Extensive experiments in the use

the coming season. At University
Farm paper covering for spaces be-
tween rows will be used on all the
main vegetable crops. Market gar
deners are planning to test the system
to determine if it is worth while.
One gardener is said to be preparing
to use mulch paper on ten acres.
Mulch paper can be bought In IL
and 36-inch rolls for approximately
quarter of cent square foot.
Use of the paper conserves fertility
and moisture and saves materially on
cultivation. Usually the paper must
be renewed yearly.
Experimental results so far show
a wide variation, says University OF
Minnesota gardeners. In tests made
last year over the country the results
were favorable in instances, and un-
favorable in others, even to the ex-
tent of apparently reducing yields.
Only in a few cases have the results
seemed to justify the cost, says a
garden authority.

Crop Reporting Service Shows
That Wheat Aceage Will
Be Reduced Oen-Third

Minnesota farmers, according to
their March l expressed intentions
made to the federal statistician for
the Minnesota Cooperative Crop Re-
porting Service, intended to plant a
larger acreage of corn oats and bar
ley, compared with the acreage har-
vested last fall. Intentions for other
crops were for a decreased acreage,
with the exception of tame hay which
remained the same.
This report does not indicate the
acreage to be actually seeded, but
is merely an expression of what
farmers as a group intend to plant
this spring. The acreage which will
be planted will depend upon the
change in acreage which farmers may
decide to make after having studied
the State and United States intentions
O plant reports. Weather conditions,
seed prices and labor supply are
other factors which will tend to
change their previous plans.
Intentions to plant, if carried out,
indicate a SO per cent decrease in
durum wheat acreage and 5 per
cent decrease for other spring wheat.
The two spring wheat carieties, dur
UNI wheat and other spring wheat
combined, show a decrease of II per
cent. This would indicate a spring
wheat acreage of 1,265, 1000 acres, COM
pared with 1,434,000 acres harvested
last fall
Indications point to 5 per cent
increase in corn acreage over last
years harvested area, or 4,293 900
acres compared with 4,089,000 acres
harvested in 1928.
The average to be devoted to oats
is 2 per cent over last years acreage
or All, 900 acres this year, compared
with 4,0S9,00O acres harvested last
fall.
Intentions to plant barley point to
an s per cent increase over last years
record acreage. This would mean
100000 acres this year, compared
with 100000 acres harvested in
1928.
The intended flax acreage of $4,000
acres is only So per cent of last years
acreage of 10000 acres.
1t is the intention of Minnesota
farmers to decrease their potato acre
age about IA per cent this year or
plant total of 100000 acres, COM
pared with $4,000 acres harvested
last year.
Indications point to about the same
acreage for tame hay as in 1928, OF

PLANT SHIPPING RULES
VIOLATERS FACE FINES

Now that the season for the ship
ment of nursery stock is here again,
A. G. Ruggles, state entomologist,
and J. D. Winter, chief deputy in
the division of nursery inspection,
both of University Farm, are notify
ing postmasters and express agents
that permits or certificates of inspec-
ton must be attached to certain
plants before they can be legally
transported.
A permit is required on all ship
ments of trees, shrubs, and woody
vines; perennial roots such as peonies
and iris; small fruit plants such as
strawberries and raspberries; her
baceous perennials such as holly
hooks; cuttings, buds, gratis, scions,
etc. Shipments may be made without
permits of greenhouse or homegrown
plants; herbaceous ANNALS such as
asters; vegetable plants like cabbage
and asparagus; tubers such as dah-
lias; and bulbs such as Gladiolus.
For shipments within Minnesota a
permit, for which no charge is made,
may be issued without inspection.
Application in such cases should be
made to the Division of Nursery In
spection, University Farm, st. Paul,
stating the destination and contents
of each package and whether the
plants are being sold. The laws of
other states usually require actual
inspection of the plants before entry
is permitted. Definite information
as to this feature may be obtained
by writing the division.
Dealers in nursery stock are de-
fined by the attorney general as any
person, firm or corporation offering
for sale stocks not grown by them
selves, except agents for nurseries
and landscape contractors and others
who furnish nursery stock and plant
it according to contract or agreement.
The state entomologist reports
many violations of these shipping re-
gulations in the last four years. I'm
der the law violations are character
lied as misdemeanors and fines not
exceeding 500 can be levied. Sew
eral dealers were arrested and lined
last year.

Mrs. Tewksbury, who in her ca
pacity of his mothers best friend,
sat with the family, whispered that
never in the history Of Tarkio had
so many people attended a funeral.
Howell would have silenced her,
but his mother, as if considering the
remark a tribute, pressed her hand.
There was something his mother
and Agnes had in common with
these others that he did not share.
He was alone. Outside in a soil
tude where none could follow him.
He watched the coffin sink into
the fioWer-lined grave, with hot,
brown eyes. There was more than

there.
Yet only Howell knew it. He held
mis- mothers hand and with an in
sight sharper than his pain, felt
that now at last he had put away
childish things"
Not so easy to explain this knowl-
edge to his mother and sister. Back
in the orderly living room listening
to the reading of a will which was
pathetic in its brevity, Howell dis
covered the battle was before him.

Lstic, confidence and simplicity that

should be considered too great to
procure for him his professional
training. Tears burned in HowelTs
eyes at the reading of that will.

as the worlds which fell from his
lips.
