VATICAN CITY. October Is (N.A.
N.A).-The Pope regrets that lack of
space in his small sovereign state makes
it impossible for him to build an airport.
Cardinal Hlond, primate of Poland,
has the distinction of being the first
churchman to visit the Vatican by air,
and when he landed at the Littorio
Airport there were all sorts of doubts
as to the propriety of a flying cardinal.
But His Holiness warmly approved.
Indeed when Chinese bishop came
to see him recently the Pope, in wish
ing him good-by, expressed the hope
that he would see the bishop again
next year" That prelate was surprised
and protested that his diocese was very
distant. Said the Pope, To-day, yes
but in a years time you will no doubt
be able to fly most of the way from
China" And His Holiness added that
he would like other bishops in distant
places to avail themselves of this new
est and fastest mode of travel.

Pasture Plays Big Role
in MANAGEMENT of Farm

Pastures are receiving more con-
sideration in recent years than for
merly," said G. E. Young, farm man
agement specialist of Indiana. 'This
increasing Importance of pasture in
our farming system has back of 1t a
number of important economic inf1u-
ences:
"First, the Importance of pastures
in a rotation to maintain soil fertility
and to prevent soil erosion;
Second, the importance of produc-
tive pastures in economical live stock
production;
''Third, the Importance Of pastures
In offering economic utilization for
thousands of acres of land not well
enough adapted to efficient crop pro-
duction to compete successfully for
that purpose with better grades of
land.
1.-THE gradual changing of our farm
ing to commercial basis has placed
an increasing premium Of greater effi-
cheney on the use of the land, labor
and capital resources at the command
of each farmer. Our present type OF
agriculture forces on each farmer the
problem Of how much labor and how
much investment to each acre of land
will yield the greatest return for
wages and interest"

Much Phosphate Wasted
in Manner of Applying

Farmers who desire to get the full
dollar values from phosphate fertiliz-
ers are warned by members Of the
soils department at Michigan State
college that the method Of applying
this plant food Is very important on
some soils.
On many heavy, upland soils, broad
cast applications of phosphates will
not be effective, the specialists say.
The character of such soils prevents
the free movement of surface water
into and through them and the phos-
phorous which has been sown on the
surface does not penetrate to the soil
depths where the plant roots are talk
ing up food.
Broadcast applications of phOs-
pilates are successful on light, porous
soil where the free movement Of wa
ter carries the plant food to the
proper depth.
Tests made by the soils department
have shown that when phosphate fer
tilizers are sown at depth of four to
six inches proper distribution Of the
plant food will follow, even on heavy
soils. Fertilizer drills will get the
material into the ground at the proper
depths.

Ventilation in Storing
Fruits and Vegetables

Fruits and vegetables put in stor-
age this fall should have lots of ven
tilation during the first few weeks.
Fruits ripen even after being picked,
and should be given every opportu-
nifty to breathe. A shaded shed or
corn crib is as good a place as any
available on the ordinary farm for
fall storage.
If the fruit or vegetables begin to
wilt or shrivel, the air is too dry.
Moisture may be added by placing
pans Of water in the room or by
sprinkling the floor every day. Dry
heat will cause spelling more rapidly
than any other condition.
Before freezing weather comes, car
rots, beets and similar root crops can
be buried in an outdoor pit. The dirt
should be removed for about foot
down into the ground, and this pit
lined with straw. The roots are then
piled up in a peaked cone and COW
cred with about six inches of straw.
The straw is covered with four to six
inches of dirt excepting at the top
where kind of chimney or fiue is
made by letting the straw stick out
through the dirt. This will give VEN
tilation during the early part Of the
winter. If the weather becomes very
cold another layer of straw and dirt
may be added and the ventilator may
be closed up almost entirely. The pit
should be opened up early in the
spring.

Chemical Checks
Mexican Beetle
Magnesium Arsenate as a
Spray. Is Most Effective
Control Measure.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
The Mexican bean beetle will cause
serious damage to the bean crop of
many of the eastern states this season
unless bean growers control the pest.
says the bureau of entomology, United
States Department of Agriculture.
After testing many different chemicals
over period Of nine years the federal
entomologists recommend the applica-
ton Of magnesium arsenate as spray
as the most effective control measure.
Applying Poison.
The poison is applied at the rate OF
about two pounds to the acre. The
spray is prepared by mixing two
100 gallons of water. In small guam
titles, use one ounce Of the chemical
to three gallons of water. Agitate the
mixture before spraying, and also
while spraying.
Magnesium arsenate is also effective
as dust. For busting, entomologists
recommend a mixture of one part of
magnesium arsenate to three parts Of
hydrated lime. Dust first as soon as
the beetles or young are noticed in the
bean fields For effective control it is
absolutely necessary to apply the
spray or the dust to the under sur
faces of the leaves. Three or four
applications at ten-day intervals may
be necessary.
Life History of Beetle.
The Mexican bean beetle, which has
invaded the greater number of the
states east of the Mississippi river,
passes the winter in the adult or
beetle stage. The beetles appear in
the fields when the first beans are
from three to four inches high and be-
gin to feed upon the leaves of the
plants. After feeding for a short time
the females lay their eggs on the low
err sides of the leaves in groups of
from 40 to 60. The time required for
the eggs to hatch will vary somewhat
according to weather conditions, but
on the average it requires about ten
days. After Matching, the larvae feed
on the lower surfaces of the leaves,
completing their growth in from three
to four weeks. They then enter what
Is known as the resting or pupal stage,
which lasts for about ten days. From
this stage the adult beetle energies,
and another generation starts an at
tack upon the bean crop. From two
to three generations Of the insect may
appear each season.

Soy Bean Increases
in Use for Forage
High Feeding Value for All
Kinds of Stock.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Extensive use of the soy bean for
forage and increased use of the beans
for oil, meal and human food have
resulted in a phenomenal increase in
acreage and production of the crop,
says the bureau of entomology,
of Agriculture. The feeding value Of
soy bean seed compares favorably
with that of other concentrates. Soy
bean seed will furnish, at moderate
cost, at least part of the high-protein
concentrates necessary for stock feed
ing and milk production.
Soy bean hay can be fed profitably
to all kinds Of live stock. It makes
an excellent winter ration for young
cattle, sheep, horses, and mules, and
can be used to good advantage for
hogs and poultry. AS pasture, the soy
bean is valuable for all kinds of stock.
Hogs CLEAN a maximum of profit from
soy bean pasture when it supple
ments a corn ration. Soy bean pas
ture may be used in late summer. and
early fall when perennial pastures are
short.
The fertilizing value of soy beans
compares favorably with that Of other
legunes usually grown for green
manure. Straw from soy beans is
valuable as roughage for wintering
dry dairy cows and beef cattle 1t is
also good roughage for sheep.
