LOAMY SOIL IS PREFERRED 3roxlmity to Farm Dwelling Is Deslr. able Because Rodents Are Not Abun dant-Transplant Seedlings When , Ten Inches High. (Prepared by the United States Depart merit of Agriculture.) Perhaps the cheapest and frequent ly the best way to start a forest plan tation is to collect seed from hard wood trees and grow seedlings, say forest specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture in Farm ers’ Bulletin 1123, Growing and Plant ing Hardwood Seedlings on the Farm, just published by the department. The collected seed, says the bulletin, will be fresh and the seedlings grown from it should be thoroughly accli mated so far as climate is concerned. Should Be Collected in Autumn. Seed should not be collected before they are ripe, and this means for moct kinds of seed that the work should be done during autumn, usually after frost. Collecting may be extended into the Winter for such species as ash, catalpa, honey locust, sycamore and others which -etain the seed on Well-Managed Timber Stand Is Source of Fuel and Shelters Farmstead From Severe Winter Winds. the trees until that time. A few varie ties of seed, such as elm, silver maple, red maple, willow and poplar ripen during the spring and summer and should be gathered promptly before they are scattered. Middle-aged trees growing In the open, where they have been permitted to develop broad, spreading crowns, ordinarily produce seed in greater abundance than trees growing in a dense forest The fruit of some hard wood trees requires special treatment to separate the seed from the fleshy covering, pod or hull before they .are planted. The best tlm.e to sow seed, either In the nursery or in the permanent plant ing site, is soon after it is ripe, but when this is not possible the seed must be stored until spring. If thia is done, the seed must not be allowed to dry out excessively, because this impairs its power to germinate. Seed should be stored in a cold place. Loamy Soil Preferable. When the seed are to be planted a good, well-drained, preferably loamy soil" should be selected. Proximity to the farm dwelling is desirable, . be cause rodents are less likely to be abundant there. Preparation of the seed bed should be similar to that of getting the soil reedy for u vegetable crop. Except on commercial plant ings, where the seed are sometimes sown broadcast, it Is best to plant with a drill in rows sufiicientiy far apart to permit horse cultivation. With small o'r thin seed, such as that of birch, elm or sycamore, best re sults will be obtained by sowing broadcast father thickly over the beds, pressing the' seed into the loose soil with a board and covering it very lightly with soil and a light mulch of leaves or straw. When the seedlings are ten or more Inches In height they are large enough to be transplanted to the field. Most of them reach this size in one growing season. In dig ging them care should be taken to In jure the roots as little as possible. Injured portions of the roots should be cut off with a sharp knife. The seedlings should not be dug until the time for planting them in their per manent location, for exposure of the roots to the air for any length of time ’ will kill them. WELL-KEPT DIARY IS VALUABLE TO FARMER Profit Gained From Record of Daily Happenings. Many Farm Problems Encountered Every Year That Might Be Solved More Easily if History of Property Was Handy. (Prepared by the. United State* Depart ment of Agriculture.) A well-kept diary Is the most Inter esting and valuable volume in its owner’s library. For the farmer, the diary will preserve a record of form happenings and personal experiences which will be valuable In the future conduct of his business. If, when he finds his alfalfa field swarming with grasshoppers, he can look back in bis diary to a summer ten years before and find the poison-bait formula that controlled the Insect then, he will save much valuable time. He may wish to know the exact location of a tile drain that was laid down when he was a youngster. If the event was noted in his own, or his father’s diary, a ten-minute perusal will give him more definite Information than a day’s digging with a spade. There are dozens of farm problems encountered every year that might be solved more easily if the farmer bad access to a complete chronological history of his property. The diary may be given a promi nent place in the bookkeeping records of the farm business. Generally speaking, there are three purposes to be served by farm accounts: (1) To determine the farm invest ment, receipts, expenses, and the net Income of the business. (2) To furnish the net returns from any individual farm enterprise and to supply specific Information as to its details. (3) To obtain a memorandum of what other people owe you and what you owe them. The blank forms necessary for a simple accounting system can be worked out by the farmer himself, or he can apply a system recommended by his county agent. He also can ob tain information direct from the office of farm management and farm eco nomics, United States Department of Agriculture. The chief advantage of a farm accounting sysiem, which is a part of the farm diary, is in the addi tional interest furnished by the per sonal items. The diary supplies items of supplementary interest which usu ally are left out of the accounts. Without the diary the task of keeping the books of the farm business be comes dry and uninteresting. Only persistency and practice will make one an adept at writing a diary. GROW SOY BEANS WITH CORN Combination Will Produce Larger Amount of Dry Matter Per Acre Than Com Alone. There is a decided advantage in growing soy beans with corn for silage purposes. The combination will pro duce a larger amount of dry matter per acre than corn alone, and the beans, being rich in protein, help ma terially In improving the feeding value at the silage. Less high-priced oil mea£s9r cottonseed meal will be need ed balance the ration when the silage contains a goodly proportion of soy beans. Improve Quality of Flock. , Improve the quality of your flocks by purchasing some good fowls or eggs from a heavy^aden strain of pure breds. It will be money well spent. Grit for Ducks. Grit should always be before the ducks, as well as plenty of drinking water. PLAN FOR CLEANING HARNESS Warm Water, Neutral Soap and a Stiff Brush Are All That la Neo essary for Good Job. Warm water, a good neutral soap, such as castile or toilet, and a stiff brush are all that Is require? to clean harness. When the harness has dried until It is only slightly damp, a good coat of neat’s-foot or castor oil, or a mixture of the two, should be applied. Harness should net be thoroughly dry before oiling. Too much oil will col lect sand and grit on the harness and Increase the wear. Make Pork From Corn. A bushel'of com will make eight to twelve pounds of pork ordinarily, sometimes fifteen, depending on the hogs. Experience teaches when com Is mosf profitable. Like Begets Like. It never pays to expect 200-egg pul lets from 100-egg hens. Remember that "like begets like." i ASPIRIN AY Name “Bayer” on Genuine " 't'i Warning!
