obvious to any one competent to study

That if all industry, through the in

Peach Fuzz Slows Attack
of BOthersome BroWn-ROt

Rubbing the fuzz off peach makes
it more attractive and more pleasant
to eat, but it also makes it easier for
the organisms which cause brown-rot
to enter through the broken hair sock
cts and start decay, according to tests
by the United States Department of
Agriculture.
Elberta peaches, placed in damp
chamber containing the spores that
cause brown-rot, became infected about
twice as quickly when the protective
hairs had been broken by brushing.
Minimum time for infection of the
brushed peaches was four and half
hours; for the unbrushed, eight hours.
At large packing centers attachments
on brushing machines spray fine sui
phur dust over the peaches to protect
them in transit to market against
brown-rot infection. In orchards the
disease is controlled by spraying or
busting the trees during the growing
season and just prior to harvest.

Bryn went upstairs to the south
wing where his own room lay. He en-
tered, sat down at the small writing
table before the window, lifted the
leather case from the floor beside him,
unlocked it, took out writing paper,
and began letter to Tubby. After the
usual jocular greetings Bryn asked him
to procure ten pounds Of jasmine tea
from an old Chinese friend of theirs, a
cook from an employment agency, three
housemaids and a butler.
With the letter sealed in his pocket,
Bryn went down the stairs in search
of Deborah. He heard from the
front of the house the sound of the
piano. He went slowly toward the
drawing room, listening. The piano
was being banged with fury. Either
Deborah or Grandmother was playing

Indians Grew Much Corn

The great age of corn culture in
America is witnessed by the fact that
the first explorers found Indians grow
ing corn practically everywhere that
it can grow on this continent, from
the forested regions of New England
and Ontario, through the rich Midwest
and the irrigated pueblo lands of the
Southwest, rising to climax in the
high Indian civilizations of the Next
can plateau, Yucatan, and the Andean
uplands of South America, out again
finally among the more primitive tribes
of the Pampas, far to the south. Only
desert, extremely poor soil, or too
short growing season could discourage
an Indian tribe from adopting corn as
mainstay food plant Successful

SYNOPSIS

Bryn (James Brynildson 1ID, tall
bronzed young man of wealth, and his
chum, Tubby. Forbes, are discussing
Bryn's coming marriage. Tubby believes
1t a scheme to get Bryn's wealth from
him. Should the girl, Deborah, whom
Bryn had met at the office of his at
torney. Ted Holworthy, marry Stuart
Graham before her twenty-first birth
day, she will inherit vast fortune
from her grandfather. Stuart had great
ly displeased Deborah, who refuses to
marry him. Bryn, posing as an unem-
ployed engineer, offers to marry Deb
orah, as Stuart, for $4,000, they not
to live as man and wife. Twenty three
years previous Anne Larned had eloped
with an adventurer on the day set for
her wedding to Courtney Graham. Two
days after the birth of her daughter,
Anne died. Shortly after, the father
died. The Larneds, grandparents, took
the child with them to Oregon where,
without child companions, Deborah
grew up. To safeguard her from some
fortune hunter, her grandfather had
arranged for her to marry Stuart, son
of Courtney Graham, when of age, be-
lieving the alliance would be a happy
one. When Deborah was fifteen, her
grandfather died. Securities had been
set aside to keep the family, but
market crash left scarcely enough for
them to live on. This was unknown to
Deborah's grandmother, an invalid,
Gary, a servant, managing the finances.
At twenty, the thought of marriage
greatly frightens Deborah. 1t had been
planned that Deborah meet Stuart in
Frisco, where they were to be married.
Tubby and Bryn await Deborah in
hotel in Frisco. Over a period of one
year the groom is to prove he is no
fortune hunter and can make Deborah
happy to the satisfaction of her grand
mother. Otherwise the fortune is to
go to charity. The will is somewhat
ambiguous as to whom Deborah is to
marry. The girl arrives with Holworthy.
Tubby is surprised to find her charming
and sweet. The wedding over, the couple
arrives at the home of Deborah's grand
mother. The grandmother and Bryn,
who she believes to be Stuart, take to
one another, which somewhat displeases
Deborah who foresees difficulty when
they are to separate after year. Deb
orah demonstrates with Bryn for his
familiarity and insincerity. Bryn de-
clares he is sincere. Deborah believes
Bryn has sweetheart waiting for him.

CAN HARVEST GAME
LIKE FARM CROPS,
SPECIALIST SAYS

Fish and game could be harvested
like any other farm crop if the pub
lie would cooperate in complete
program of conservation, according
to r. e. Trippensee, professor of
wildlife management at Massachu-
sets State college. But unless
program is carried out, hunting and
fishing by the common man will dis
appear.
Under the harvesting program,
farmers, sportsmen, and the general
public would cooperate in improving
the environment and establishing a
plan of game management for each
area which would increase the sup
ply of game by improving natural
conditions and by restricting the kill
of game to the number which repre-
sents the annual surplus of each spe-
cies.
"The land owner" he said, sis real
1y the key to wildlife conservation.
because he controls the food supply.
Generally each farm has some waste
land that could be used for wildlife
production. Land owners could fence
in these waste areas to keep out
farm animals and predatory dogs.
They can plant shrubs that will hold
fruit during the winter-wild grapes,
barberries, oriental apples, bitter
sweet. And if they left little grain,
it would help to carry through more
breeding stock for the next years
crop.
Contrary to widespread belief,
wild game will reproduce quite rapid
ly if given a chance. The trouble is
we don't give them half a chance.
In an experiment in Michigan, six
deer-three does and three bucks
were put in a 1,200-acre enclosure in
1923, and in seven years they had
multiplied to 252"
"As citizens" he said, tive must
discard the idea that a hunting H.
cense fee of 1925 entities us to $50
worth of meat and $500 worth of
pleasure. It's one of those things
that can't be DONE"

Time for Seeding
Summer Pastures
Sudan Grass, Mixture, Will
Provide Feed During the
Critical Months.
BY DIR. HOWARD B. sPRAGUE, Agrono-
mist New Jersey Experiment
Statinn-WNU Service.

Station.-WNU Service.
There is still ample time for seeding
temporary pasture crops to PROVIDE al
ditional feed during the critical sum-
mer months. The planting Of Sudan
grass, or a mixture of Sudan grass and
soy beans will insure sufficient feed
to keep cows in production without the
use of expensive barn feeds.
According to the Bureau of Dairy In
dustry, approximately $50 pounds of
fresh grass daily is required to COM
pletely satisfy cow producing 80
pounds of milk. Since permanent pas
lures are usually short in midsummer,
1t is necessary to provide additional
pasturage during this period. Even
the best permanent pasture will pro-
duce only half as much feed as during
the most favorable periods. Sudan
grass which has reached height OF
eight to ten inches, or mixture of
Sudan grass and soy beans, adequately
fill the need for increased pasturage
in midsummer.
Sudan grass seeded alone should be
planted at approximately 30 pounds
per acre. The mixture of Sudan grass
and soy beans may be seeded at the
rate of Is to 20 pounds of Sudan and
80 to 40 pounds of soy beans. This
mixture is higher in protein and some
what better feed than Sudan grass
alone. However, straight Sudan grass
is excellent pasturage, as many farm
ers who have tried the crop will tes-
tify. Both crops will be favored by
the use of lime, If the soil is strongly
acid, and the application of 300 or 400
pounds of complete fertilizer per
acre. Sudan grass and soy beans may
both be planted with grain drill, al
though care should be taken to prevent
planting too deeply Seeding soon aft
er rain on a we'll prepared seed bed
Is ideal.
The amount of pasture needed will
depend on the number of cows, APP
proximately one acre for every four
cows usually being adequate. If the
crop is not needed for pasture, it may
be cut for hay. Sudan grass is supe-
rior to other summer crops in ability
to make new growth after it has once
been graZed down.

Value of Manure

Nitrogen represents 70 per cent Of
the worth of manure. Moist, packed
manure undergoes the same fermenta-
ton as occurs in silos. Acetic, butyric
and carbonic acids are produced. The
acids combine with the ammonia and
prevent nitrogen loss as long as ma
nure Is moist. Manure hauled in dry
ing weather loses the volatile acids bv
excessive drying. The ammonia goes
also. Stored manure should be hauled
and spread in cool moist weather, or
worked mte soil soon after spreading.
