Economy In F

Wai deuhtisss Bs Os? sf the Lee?
United States, Not Only Be,
But of Probable Shortag
Special te Tho Intelligencer.
WASHINGTON, I). C., Oct. 31.
Doubtless ope of the lessons of 1914
to th? farmers of the United States
will be ,economy ih fertilisers as Wei!
as in ? ot nor lines. This is likely not
only becauso' of enforced economy as
In ali; lihou, 'but because of a probable
shortage' and corresponding advance
in price ot fertilizer ingredients which
have been customarily Imported from
Germany." Besides, it is weil known
that among the most serious "leaks" I
in the average farm ls the waste ot ?
refuse that would, if properly han
dled, make good fertiliser.
Having this idea in view, tho de
partment of agriculture has just Is
sued a statement legardlng the value
of thu wood lot or woodpile as a fer
tilizer producing cheney, and indicat
ing ho\v tho supply ot both fuel and
fertiliser may be conserved by tho
Improvement of the wood lot It says:
"Every farmer needs fuel; every
farmer needs fertilizer; and every
farm wood lot. needs Improvement,
Why not kill all three birds with one
BICUP?- Wy Judiciously planned thin
ning th? condition of the wood lot can
be greatly improved; tho material re-1
moved fn tho-thinnings' can be burned j
as firewood, and the wood lashes letti
are so rich, in potash ss tb m ak o a'val
uable fertilizer.
"Tbs wood, lot lp, perhaps, tho only
farm crop to. which the farmer has
not coneidorod it necessary to devote
any c*rer His grains are sowed on
carefully prepared soil: his vegetables
are cultivated, and bis fruit trees are
pruned and sprayed; his forest trees
alone are. left to look out for them
selves. This ls tho more remarkable
when it'is taken into consideration {
that any labor expended on the wood
let bot only improves the final ?crop,
but ordinarily pays for Itself aa well.

No detailed technical knowledge is re

"It is obvious that thc trees in any
wood lot aro not ail of equal value.
Some are taller, straighter, thriftier,
and of species which jrMd moro val
uable wood than others. It is also ob
vious that there ls a conBtant struggle
going on between the trees for light
and growing space. The object of
thinning is simply to givo the best
trees the advantage in this strugglo
by removing the poorer ones which in
terfere with their development.
"First of all defective trees should
be removed. This Includes trees at
tacked by insects or fungi (conks)
trees with file-scarred butts, with tops
broken off by wind or lightning, and
in general all trees which are un
thrifty from any cause. Next como tho
trees of poor form, such as very
crooked or very branchy ones, which
aro interfering with the growth of
butter formed neighbors. And finally
aro tho trees of loas valuable species,
such as dogwood, ironwood and horn
beam. These not only lake up opaco
that might better be occupied by such
species as bah, hickory, and ash, but
reproduce themselves at the expense
of more desirable trees.
"While the wood removed tn these
thlnings is frequently ot no value for
other purposes, it can practically al
ways be used to advantage for fuel. In
this way the work cab be made to pay
fdr . itself, particularly when the fu
ture use ot tho wood ashes for fertil
izer I'B borne hi mind. The essential
point to remember in making such
thinnings is that the wood lot is a tree
society. In which tho best trees should
be given every chance to attain tho
greatest possible development by the
removal and utilization of the unfit.'
