To realize this we have only to look at any orchard showing the effect of wind on the trees. Looking at these trees from the south or north they are symmetrical see bow they look enough, but yo from the eaat or west. While corn In orchards Is considered ordinarily a poor method of occupying the ground It has some good features from the windbreak point of view. I believe that no better method can be devised to keep the young trees growing straight than to plant several rows of corn east and west between the rows of trees. Space should be left to Insure good light to the ground and I would not plant any corn between the trees in the rows: -- This will gl ve good circulation of air, and garden crops to be cultivated can be planted If the ground Is to be used for crops at all. If there Is danger of crabgrass encroaching It Is advisable to stir the soli thoroughly after each rain and oftener If necessary to keep It down. Mulberries are excellent for orchard windbreaks both for the north and south lines. They will form a pretty good winter windbreak where planted close so the limbs Intertwine, and their fine limbs ami thick foliage Is Ideal for summer windbreaks. They have another feature of no small value.

Two Varieties Described. The single-ea- r type la described as having resulted from continuous selection toward one large ear per stalk, although under favorable conditions two ears may be produced. As contrasted with the single-ea- r type, the prolific la distinguished by the normal production of more thanone ear per stalk. The ears usually are smaller. As both types are grown extensively. It Is of agronomic Interest to know which yields more efficiently under ordinary field conditions where 'the production of the plants Is likely to be Influenced by Irregularity of stand and by the Inequalities of germination, soli, and growing conditions. The purpose of the present investigation was to study the reaction of theae types under conditions that provided a wide range In the environment, obtained In this case by altering the spacing of the plants. Prolific More Productive. In these experiments the prolific type was more productive than the single-ea- r type. It also was more efficient In Increasing the yield per plant and In Increasing the number of ears per type was plant. While the single-ea- r more efficient In Increasing the weight of the ear, the prolific type produced a larger yield per acre because Increasing the number of ears was more effective than Increasing the weight of the Individual ears. The experiments Indicate that in sections to which both types are adapted In genernl the prolific will be the more productive under conditions of general field culture because of Its better adjustment to varying conditions.

In 1921, there were "less than 80,000 purebred bull calves registered by the breed associations. But this probably does not represent half the purebred bulls born In 1921. The 80,000 or more that were not registered, were probably slaughtered because their breeders were not able to market them profitably. This is because the average farmer is not yet convinced of the advantages to be derived from the use of purebred sires. If every purebred bull calf born in this country were raised, it would take a three or four years' crop of calves to replace the grade and scrub bulls (numbering approximately ce.000) that are being used In dairy herds. When It is considered that not all purebred calves are worthy of .be--, lng used, even on grade herds, and allowance Is made for the normal death rate and other factors that enter to cut down the number of purebred bulls raised, the above estimate of three or four years could safely be Increased to five or six years as the time that would be required to replace the scrub bulls. Only 3 per cent of our dairy cattle are purebred, and the supply of purebred bulls would be wholly inadequate If the farmers of the country could only appreciate the benefit It would be to them to head their producing herds with pt ebred sires of good producing strains. Use of Acid Phosphate Does Not Injure Soil Not Infrequently the fear Is expressed that the continued use of acid phosphate on land will Increase the sourness of the soil. Experimental evidence, however, shows that this In fact, there Is fear is unfounded. evidence to show that it has a slight A tendency to reduce the acidity. number of experiments have been conducted In which heavy applications of acid phosphate were made on certain plots for a long period of years. The results show that these plots are not as sour as plots receiving no treatment. The term "add phosphate" Is primarily a trade name; derived from the fact that It Is made by treating raw phosphate with sulphuric acid. This name has been largely responsible for the erroneous opinion. There Is nothing In the material which will Injure the soil. Its use may confidently be expected to produce entirely bene ficial results. self-feed- Watch for Anthracnose.

Sour milk or buttermilk In many cases actually proves a remedy for coccldlosls, the most dreaded of all chick diseases. As lone as the chicks can be kem growing rapidly they are less suscep tible to disease or any mna, nut especially to coccldlosls and It Is largely on account o? Its aid in warding off this disease that many poultry raisers have come to consider milk as being essential for chicks during the first eight weeks. Concentrates Necessary to Insure Thrifty Sows The amount of concentrate necessary to Insure a thrifty sow and a thrifty litter Is small. And only In rare cases will It he neoewary to buy supplements.

Kill Kill Unworthy Chicks. on sight and destroy chicks that are weak, unthrifty show signs of "pasting up behind.'' The real meaning of the term "sports," as applied to fowls. Is not quite understood by a good many Now, la breeding poultry keepers. many varieties there will often com a chicken that Is contrary to the parent birds, and the reason for this sometimes seems very strange. For example, those who have bred Silver Laced Wyandottes know that frequently a white one, and occasionally a black one, will be produced, and It was the breeding together of these sports that gave as the two distinct colors, the White Wyandotte and the Black Wyandotte, as we know them today. Where very lightly laced birds are used to there Is a greater tendency white, and just the opposite when a very heavily laced bird Is used, the sport here coming black. Partridge Wyandottes will also throw a few white ones, and those who breed them In big quantities will produce perhaps four or five white ones during the year. Another common example of "sports" Is found in the fact that oftentimes a rose comb breed will throw a single comb fowl. There is always an occasional tendency In this direction, and It does not prove that the parent stock Is bad, nor that It does not measure up to the required purebred standard. Many of our preeent-da- y are the results of working breeds from Bports. The black Plymouth came first from the barred, and for years no one ever heard of a male chicken coming black, these being all females. Today we have a distinct breed known as the Black Rock. It Is probable that all of our more than a hundred modern varieties of poultry descended from the one kind of original Jungle fowl. In fact, most of our now numerous varieties have been created during the past 40 or The old breeds, Ufee the 50 years. Black Langshans, do not often produce sports, for the reason that they have been bred pure for many hundreds of years, perhaps for thousands of years. But modern breeds, such as the Orpingtons, Rhode Island Reds, etc., are given to producing sports. rt Cull Out Wek Ewct. out the weak and unthrifty ewes Just sfter shearing.

To meet this re- quirement, poultrymen use what are known as roosting coops. These are structures about six feet long, three feet wide, three feet high In front and two feet high at the rear. They have waterproof roofs, but the front side and one end, or the front side and two ends, are covered with wire so that the air can circulate through freely In warm weather, but hostile animals cannot get in. To keep out driving rains or for U3e in cooler weather, particularly when the chicks are first put In and the nights are chilly, curtains of cloth or burlap are attached to the tops of the open sides so that they can be rolled down and fastened to protect the chicks when necessary. The curtain covering each side is made separate frgm the others so that much or little space may be left ojfen according to requirements and according to which way the wind blows or the storm drives. Thes little buildings should be mov- able and It Is a good plan to place them on skids with roundtej ends so that they can be drawn from place to place, thus affording a fresh, new location every day or two. Many poultry keepers block up these little houses so that there is a space between the floor and the ground which affords a cool, shady "place for the chicks during hot days. HURT!
