DISFIGURING THE LANDSCAPE.
An agricultural pupor makes a
strong protest against tho too com
mon practlco In tho rural districts ol
"disfiguring fonceB, barns and other
buildings, trees, etc., with glaring
slgnB," Thero might havo been In
eluded In tho list of great sprawling
billboards which aro to bo seen along
railways and highways at frequont In'
tcrvnls, says tho Loulsvlllo Courier
Journal. A largo amount of pictur
esque scenery Is marred In this way.
Nothing Is sacred to tho enterprising
advertiser who Is Interested In keep
ing his wares beforo tho public cyo.
It requires tho consent of tho prop
erty owners to dlsflguro buildings and
beautiful landscapes In this way, but
so somo farmers and landowners find
It to bo a sourco of somo small rev
cnuo, thoy aro moro than willing to
, permit tho advertiser to work his will
in such matters. I)ut tho farmer gets
very llttlo money out of tho transac
tion, and only succeeds In detracting
from tho nppcaranco of hln property.
Thero aro many farmors who do not
realize that thero Is a money valuo to
thorn In keoplng their farms and build
IngB In good order. A good beginning
In that direction 1b by keeping tho
premises clear of things whlchVaro
likely to bo dlstastoful to passursby.
Tho uso of tho nutoinobllo has In
creased with great rapidity, and It has
boon inovltnblo that with tho In
crease In usb thero would bo an in
crcaso In tho number of accidents,
ovon though thero should bo, as n
rulo, an incrcaso In tho caro exercised.
Fatalities from horse-drawn vehicles
yavo so long been a matter of courso
that thoy liuvn attracted loss attention
than fatalities caused by automobiles,
although until recently tho number of
tho formor has greatly, exceeded tho
latter. In Now York city thus far this
yoar tho fatalities recordod aro 138,
year tho deaths caused by wagons
number 117. Last year, In tho samo
month, wngonB cauBod tho death of
111 persons, whllo automobiles kill
ed only 70. It will thus bo seen that
(ho fatalities caused by automobiles
In Now York city havo Increased near
ly 100 porcoht., whllo tho number
chargeable, to wagons was nearly sta
tionary. These, however, aro tho flg
uros for a "densely populated city, and
It 1b altogether probablo that If tho
figures could bo compiled for tho en
tire country they would show that nc
cldonta to horso-drawn vehicles still
outnumber thoso to Automobiles, as
was ascertained to be tho caso liuEng

IRRIGATION FOR GOOD CROPS
Maximum of Production Usually At
tained In Gardens With Moderate
but Frequent Waterings.
After all has boon said -and done,
tho limit of production Is set, othor
conditions being equal, by tho supply
of moisture at tho right time, and
thoso who depend on rainfall can hard
ly havo tho exact optimum .condition.
Dry weather is needed to work tho
corn, wet weather for tho pasture, and
only under artificial application of
moisture can thoso two conditions bo
rcullzed, says a writer in tho Denver
Weekly Post. It Is truo that wo some
times havo wot weathor when wo do
not want It hero. In fact, this sea
son wo havo had rathor more than
was necessary, but as a rulo wo can
roRulu'o things, and with us the crop
wo Bhall grow is a matter of our se
lection. Somo states havo sections
of a hundred miles or moro almost
wholly In wheat, because hot winds
bako tho corn. In many othor sec
tions fall crops, such as cabbage or
potatoes, aro oxtrom.ely risky. Long
winter months of cold nnd wet re
duco profits, which, howover, nrc fair
ly easily assured on largo farms
with us, ovon If lesB per acre.
No section of tho country has all
tho advantages, but for tho smallor
farmer irrigation with an assured sup
ply of wator certainly seems best, for
his production Is practically only lim
ited by tho fortuity of his land. Wa
ter will mako crops grow and sunslilno
1b here In quantity. So far nstljere Is
a missing link in Irrigated agricul
ture It Is tho lack of manure to re
placo tho great tonnago sold, and it
is nfter this lino that wo must look for
Improvement, Besides furnishing good
plant food, tho organic matter holds
moisture between Irrigations and Iobb
ens tho need of such froquent appli
cations, which aro both expensive nnd
rcduco tho strength of tho soli soup,
oven In our rich boIIb. Tho fact that
wo got qur highest production In tho
years of greatest rainfall points to
tho valuo of a moro constant and less
heavy application of water whero tho
supply Is sufficiently constant.
Tho maximum of production Is usu
ally attalnod In tho garden with mod
erato but frequent waterings, though
caro should bo taken that tho ground
doos not becomo crusted at the riopth
of a fow Inches nnd the subsoil remain
dry nnd tho top soakod, Inducing
sourness and shallow rooting. In tho
Held, as a rulo, with its deop cultiva
tion, thoro Is a tendonc for tho wa
tor to eonk too doop and run too long
in covering long rows, whllo on tho
small patch tho tendency Is tho oth
er way. I'armorB Bhow much skill in
cultivation which presorves tho Irriga
tion waters, chocks tholr evaporation
at tho Burfnco whllo It encourages
capillarity, which roturns tho water to
the roots, oven after It has passed low
down in tho soli.
Thoro Is, of courso, an exact longth
of row run for water, which varleB
according to tho soli, to attain tho
beBt result from tho smallest amount
of wator. Tho looser tho soil tho short
er tho row should be, so far aa tho
application of wntor Is concerned,
whllo on heavy soils wo must con
stantly try tho ground with a shovel
to sco that tho water soaks doop
enough. Perhaps on light soils rather
.than suffer tho inbonvonlonco of short
rows It pays to run a packer, no a
corfugator Is run over grain and al
falfa crops on tho western Blopo, or
sometimes llko tho samo effect may
bo secured on sultnblo land by using
smallor ditches. On othor soils, on
tho contrary, a largo hoad of wator
will run n short tlmo with loss waste
than n Binaller one. Somo of thoBo

Corn Stalks for Protection.
(By F. II. BALT.OU.)
, Mico rarely injure trees except

or trash of somo kind nbout tho base

they prefer to perform their depre
dations undor covor. In mounding
fruit trees, llrst cloar away tho grass,
trash or mulch from tho base of tho
treo for a foot or moro In all direc
tions. With tho foot, or, better, with a post
tamper, thoroughly firm tho soli about
tho baso of tho tree. This breaks down
and fills any runs or burrows that may
be Just below tho surface.
With two' shovelsful of fresh soil

14 Inches iti diameter nt tho baso nnd

atom of tho troo, firming tho soil well.
Tho tops of these small mounds are
usually kopt qulto baro by tho swoop
ing forco of tho wintor winds, even if
thoro bo sovernl inches cf snow on tho
ground. Mico will not venture out In
theso exposures to feed on tho bark
of tho trees "and burrowing Into tho
frcBhly packod soil Is not likely to bo
nttomptcd In tho wintor ovon In open
weather.
TJio mounds may bo loft throughout
thtf-ycar, but thoy should bo tamped

Ono-lnch mesh poultry netting will
protect tho troos against rabbit, but
not from mico, but In combination
with a Blight mound of soil about tho
baso of troo, mice will rarely provo
troublesome.
Thoro is no dovlce superior tn ef
fectiveness against rabbits and ground
hogs as corn stalks, and certainly
none cheaper for tho farm orchard. A
good plan is to tnko tho bundles of
stover ns thoy como from tho field,
squaro oft the butts and cut oft a two
foot length of tho lower ends of tho
stalk.
Thoso sections may bo fed to tho

It Is difficult to treat young trees
successfully that havo boon barked byj
rabbits or other predatory animals.
Whether any treatment will succeed
or not depends largely on how bad
tho girdling Is. If tho bark is taken
off clear nround tho treo so ns to ex
poso tho wood, tho only remedy la to
bridge graft. This is done by insert
ing a Bdon both above and below tho
wound, and, of courso, cannot readily
bo dono except in spring. Whllo this
can bo dono successfully, It 1b im
practical for a young tree, nnd the
chances are that It would bo more
profitable to pull out the troo and ro
set with new stock.
If tho girdling ia not particularly
severo it can be helped by trimming
tho ragged edges of tho bark with a
sharp knlfo; then covering tho sur
faco with grafting wax or othor ma
terial to keep tho wood from drying
out Ull new bark grows oyer and
heals tho wound.
A great many nowly planted trees
die because of carelessneus In filling
tho hole. It Is Important that this,
work bo carefully done. If tho soil
which was removed from tho bottom
of tho excavation be hard and lumpy,
It should bo placed to ono sldo and
tho surface soil used first in filling.
The main thing to romembor In fill
ing is that overy part of tho root
system should bo In contact with tho
soil. Unless it is, tho exposed areas
will bo points for tho loss of molBturo
and the drying out of tho roots.
.Tho soil surrounding the roots must
be flno if they aro to bo well covered.
Glther loosen the soil in the bottom
or. tho holo or throw in two or three
spadeBful of loose earth bo that when
the treo Is put in it will sink suffi
ciently Into tho Boll bo that all under
surfaces will bo in good contact with
It, The soli may then be filled In, us
ing tho flno soil first and compacting
it woll around tho roots.
Thoro la llttlo danger of compacting

two Inches being left ns Ioobo and
flno as possible.
Don't Lose the Eggs.
As ducks lay during tho night, or
early morning, nil tho eggs can be
saved -by proper management. To in
Buro this, It becomes necessary to
shut them In their rooms or pens at
dusk for tho night, and an thoy aro
caroless about where they deposit
tholr eggs, It Is best to have (besides
tho neBt) tho floor woll covered with
dry soil, which, in addition .to obsorb
lng all molsturo nnd keeping tho floor
cloar of filth, will protect from Injury
oggs that might otherwise bo lost.
Ducks aro quito regular layers oftor
thoy onco bogln, usually laying an
egg overy 24 hours. To lnduco thorn
to como In at nights it is best to feed
thorn at that tlmo, and in tho morning
boforo thoy aro let out. Treated thus,
thoy will soon learn to como homo at
sundown for tholr nccustomed food,
and nro readily secured. At tho proper
tlmo in tho morning tho oggfl are col

ed their freedom for tho day.
Two or More Varieties.
Do not plant an orchard ot ono va
riety only. Even good Bolf-pollenlrero
will probably bo more satisfactory if
two or moro varieties are set together
than whon tho orchard is limited to
