The Hardest Schedule.

WITH the announcement Of foot ball
~ schedules for 1890, there Is no pa
rade offered yet that carries IS many
knotty spots as Notre Dame has taken
on. &c..
The opening with Southern Method
ist, one of the strong teams of the
Southwest, is a tip-off. Ray Morrison
will have a better team next Fall than
he had last year, where he ran into a
snarl of four tie games. He had to plug
up a number of open gaps in 1929, but
he will have a stronger nucleus back.
The Army and Navy, Southern Cali
fornia and Pittsburgh would be con-
sidered a ranking schedule, but in adj
dition to these, Notre Dame has South
ern Methodist, Indiana, Wisconsin,
Pennsylvania, Carnegie Tech, Drake
and Northwestern.
One can never tell in advance, but
this looks to be the hardest schedule
any team ever tackled, with the chance
that at least eight of the 10 games will
be hard to win.
Notre Danes biggest loss will come
In the middle of the line, where Moyna-
han, Cannon and Law will be missing
These three were about as fine center
and guard trio as foot ball has ever
known. There may have been others
as good, but probably no others that
were better.

beginning of outdoor activities, more
than ever this year on account of the
unusually delightful weather.
The Takoma Horticultural Club held

the club, Edwin C. Powell, showed how

the Takoma Park branch of the Public

desirable conditions is certain to bring
disappointment But how is one to
know good seed? Principally by max
ing purchase through a regular seed
house, whose principal business is the
handling of seed. The life and sue
cess of such business depends on giving
satisfaction to the grower. No pains are
spared by the large seed business to
procure seed from the best producing
large firms own their own seed farms
in various favorable locations. These
large seedsmen employ well trained
growers to keep the seed stocks pure
from mixture and it stands to reason
that they are the safest source of
garden seed for every one. Their prices
are often no higher than their less
reliable competitors who employ no
such standards. It is true that quite
often packets of seed gathered here
and there at random give satisfaction,
but for security the gardener should
not chance his time, labor and salts
faction on doubtful seed.
Garden seed, as a rule, loses its value
rapidly with age, especially If kept
under ordinary home conditions of con-
stantly changing humidity and heat.
Hence last years remnants are of
dubious value and should be tested be-
tween layers of moist blotting paper
or cloths to ascertain termination
Often weak sprouting is not guarantee
that the remaining vigor is sufficient
to push the young plant through the
soil or even enable it to withstand cold,
vet conditions which usually occur In
the open ground.
The sensible plan of procedure is to
draft some sort of simple plan of
the proposed paintings, estimating fairly
closely how many feet of each kind of
vegetable or flower is desired. Then
by reference to seed catalogue one can
ascertain how much seed will be needed.
In this way there will be no large
surplus stocks of expensive seed left
over at the end of the season and one
will have the satisfaction of proceeding
in buSineSs-like manner. Seed
catalogues are easily procured at this
season; postal card to the scotsman
will bring one. The seed catalogue of
today can be very material help to
the gardener, not only in selection of
varieties, but in planning the garden.

GARDEN NOTES.

Whenever the soil is in condition TO
spade or pillow is now the proper season
to get it into shape for planting, even
though actual sowing Of seed may not
occur for several weeks. AS rule the
more care spent in preparing the soil
the better the crops and the less clll-
tural care required to bring them
through. On the other hand, it does
not pay to work sticky clay soil at this
season unless it crumbles readily under
q blow of the spade.
Home gardeners. need not worry II
daffodilis, tulips and hyacinths begin
to thrust their leaves above the soil
The flower buds are still beneath the
soil and it is astonishing what resistance
to freezing is shown by young leaves at
this season.
Snowdrops are not much in them
selves, but have a great deal of signifi-
canoe as the first harbinger of a new
season. The humble little bulbs have
great persistence when once established
and are much more enduring than
crocus or tulips. Without care and in
competition with grass, the snowdrop
will hold its own and increase. There
are two or more species of snowdrop,
with considerable difference in size of
bloom, but at the best the flowers are

SPRAYING.

There is plenty of fruit grown in our
local home gardens that never makes
the acquaintance of a protective spray
of any kind. Yet because of worm holes
and other blemishes no one would have
dlthculty in distinguishing this fruit If
IL were displayed in competition with
that which had been SPRAYED. Early
Spring is an important time in the
spraying business for two reasonS-treeS
are still inactive and certain pests are
at their most vulnerable stage Spray
Ing at this time of year is chiefly for
scale insects, those minute creatures
which guard themselves by depositing a
protective layer of wax over their bodies
or eggs as it may be. The San Jose
scale Is perhaps the worst of all in this
region and is perfectly able to destroy
whole fruit trees and plants. On the
mature apple or pear fruit, the scale
may be often seen as a small circular
Redeemed area. On the bark there is a
scaly encrustation scarcely discernibIe
TO the casual eye. So numerous are the
snsects that they may literally cover
every bit of surface and destroy the
apple or currant or japanese ounce, as
IL may be, by sucking out its sap.
Lime-sulphur, reddish brown liquid
compound or ordinary lime and sulphur,
has long been used for combating scale
and, although giving way to oils in some
locahtleS, IS still standard treatment
because of its greater safety. Lime
sulphur may be had at most of the
suburban hardware stores or at the
seed stores. Directions for dilution or
solution If in powdered form are on the
receptacle. The plant with its foliage
still inclosed in the bud scales can
Withstand a concentration at this season
which would kill it in the growing sea-
son. Line-sulphur Is a dual purpose
spray, for in addition to killing the in
sects, spores Of plant diseases are also
destroyed. The lime-sulphur spray is
perhaps the most important of the year.
Certainly II scale insects are present,
It is beyond doubt the most important
and, in any event, is helpful to fruit
trees and many shrubs.

Few people realize that leaves and
straw are of no immediate value in the
garden soil; in fact, are harmful be-
cause of their indirect competition with
the plants for nitrogen. The bacteria of
the soil that break down leaves or
straw or rotting wood use nitrogen and
draw on that available to the plant.
The proper way to handle leaves or
straw is to bury them in a pit or pile
them in an out-of-way corner to de-
compose. This breaking down can be
FASTENED by adding poultry manure,
sheep manure or other nitrogen supply
ing fertilizer and lime.

Survival of the Fittest

AAAQA Oull E GIGSSJ
Under the present competitive marketing system, east
ern North Dakota cannot compete with western North
Dakota, Montana and Saskatchewan in supplying the
market with wheat, Rex E. Willard, agricultural
economist, stated after visiting the western country.
Large farms and Sunmerfallowing with a duckfoot cul-
tivator enable the western operator to raise wheat SO per
cent cheaper than the farmers in the eastern part of
the state, Willard declares. Wizards statement proph-
estes the elimination of the famed Red River Valley
as a wheat production country.
The visit of Williams county farmers this summer to
Canadian points means the institution of the Canadian
plan of summerfallowing in this country. The drouth this
year has proven. the value of SummerfalloWing, Yields be-
ing consistently good on Summerfallowed land. In COM
putting the difference in the cost of raising the wheat
Willard takes into consideration that blowing is done
only about once every six years. the duckfoot being
used in place of the pillow. But in following out that
procedure IN cultivation of wheat, the small farm is
entirely useless.
1t would be questionable whether or not, and Willard
seems to think not, If sun1merfallowing would be prof
liable on the high-priced land in the eastern part Of
the state. To leave half the land lie idle each year,
would create a prohibitive overhead. Under the present
situation, the western land seems to be the only coun-
try that can survive as a wheat raising region in the
northwest. The low price of tillable land makes the
summerfallowing method profitable.
To cut OFT eastern North Dakota as a wheat raising
country would be another step in reducing the DOGGY Of
surplus. The passing of the Red River valley as q wheat
raising country would bring on a new epoch in the his
tory OF agriculture. Traditional as a wheat raising coun-
try, 1t looks most probable that the valley will some day
merely possess its tradition.

Today Is the
Anniversary of
BIRTH OF rOCH

On October 2, 1851, Ferdinand Foch
French general, and generalissimo OF
the allied forces during the World war
was born at Tarbes, France.
He joined the French army when
he was 10 and fought in the wal
against Prussia. In 1893 he was ap-
pointed lieutenant colonel and pro-
fessor of strategy and tactics in the
war college at Paris, of which he later
became cOmmandant.
In the early days of the invasion OF
France in 1914 Foch stopped the great
German drive toward Calais, and SUBJ
sequently won the, victories at Ypres
and La Bassee. The plan whereby
Joffre defeated the Germans in the
battle of the Marine was largely due to
Foch, who came to be regarded as a
master tactician among the allied
commanders.
Placed in command of the allied
