Thera Not Necessary to Wait Life- time to Realize Returns From Trees. Contrary to the does not have to realize tions. current belief one wait a lifetime to returns from forest planta- In fact, continues E. L. Scovell, specialist In farm forestry at Rutgers university, trees established on idle lands next spring will yield the owner a very substantial profit in six to ten years. Interplanting Favored. Interplanting of pine and Norway spruce or Douglas fir is the answer. In a plantation of this sort Norway spruce is planted at intervals of six feet in rows six feet apart. Pine, preferably white or red pine, is then planted in the alternate intervals. As the pine grows much more rapidly than the spruce during the first few years, it is best to postpone the planting of the pine at least two years from the time the spruce is set. This allows the spruce trees sufficient time to become firmly established and to assure their not being crowded too quickly by the pine. When planted at this spacing, 1,200 trees of each species are required on an acre. Under the conditions ordinary spruce will be suitable for Christmas trees when six to ten years old. Trees of this size are now bringing 50 cents to $1.50 per tree delivered at the market. If (S00) of the planttwo-third- ed s trees reach l turity the mortality is generally much lower the harvested crop per acre at present market prices would be worth from $400 to $1,200 delivered. Profit From Thinning. The pine is left to grow to timber size. When harvested at forty years of age it will yield 20,000 to 25,000 board feet of lumber per acre, worth $150 to $250 at present market prices standing in the field. In addition it will yield a small profit when the first thinning is made, usually fifteen to twenty-fivyears after planting, and substantial returns from thinnings at regular intervals thereafter. The total investment, including r taxes and compound interest for a period, when the Christmas trees are harvested, will not exceed $35 an acre. The additional cost of carrying the pine to maturity is practically negligible. e ten-yea- Farm Inventory Is Very Simple Form of Record An inventory can be taken on the average farm in less than half a day, and for the time spent it shows the farmer the most about his business of any records he can keep. This statement is made by Frof. V. B. Ilart of the farm management department at the New York State College of Agriculture. "A farm inventory is the simplest form of farm financial record that can be kept, he says. The inventory shows the farmer his net worth above debts, and a comparison of two successive annual inventories will show him whether he got ahead during the year. This is the first step to take in putting a farm on a good business basis, and from such an inventory a credit statement can be made to be filed with the bank where the farmer does business. Any farmer borrowing money from a bank should file a credit statement with his bank once a year. The banker is a custodian of the funds of his depositors and should not make loans He to any but responsible persons. is entitled to and should have the information which a credit statement gives and this statement also generally gives a farmer a better credit standing at the bank." The state college at Ithaca has copies of a form for taking an Inventory, with spaces provided for all the items. It also contains complete directions for taking the inventory and for making a credit statement, with blanks for two such statements. This can be had free from the college by writing for it. Winter Green Feed Very Important for the Hens if one has cabbages or mangels stored in a cellar where they may freeze, it often pays to keep a thermometer in the cellar and give it additional protection, or use a lantern to bring up the temperature if the mercury begins to stand close to 32 degrees. Frozen green feed is not good for hens, and constant freezing and thawing is not good for the keeping qualities of the feed. Hens do not like rye grain, but they will eat sprouted rye, and It seems to be a satisfactory green feed. Sprouted oats are generally used. If you make a homemade grain sprouter with wooden trays, heated with a kerosene Incubator lamp, be sure the fire risk is not greater than the value of the sprouted oats. In most cases, I think the metal sprouters are a good investment, because the fire risk is greatly reduced. When mangels are sliced and thrown in the litter, they pick up more or less dirt and straw. Cutting them in halves and laying them in wooden troughs may be a better way. TJien the hens can peck out the succulent feed more readily than when the in the litter. pieces are half-burie- d Barley Used in Laying Mash Meets With Favor Farmers with barley to be used as poultry feed, might use it to ihe best advantage by adopting the Cornell scratch grain and mash mixture for laying hens. The scratch grain formula consists of 500 pounds of cracked corn, 200 pounds of wheat, 200 pounds of barley and 100 pounds of heavy oats. If good heavy oats are not available, they advise leaving the oats out of the scratch grain mixture. In the laying mash 100 pounds of ground barley Is used in place of the ground oats usually recommended in a ration of that type. The mash consists of 100 pounds each of yellow corn meal, ground barley, middlings, bran and meat scrap containing 50 to 55 per cent protein. Three pounds of fine table salt should be thoroughly mixed in each 500 pounds of the laying mash. Water Supply for Live Stock in Cold Weather Live stock frequently suffer from lack of water during freezing weather. When the only water supply available Is a- stream or spring, daily attention is necessary to be sure that the ice is broken. Often the approach to such a water supply becomes so slippery that it is almost impossible for the cattle to get to and from water without falling and floundering around a great deal. After such an experience animals will avoid going to the water hole just as long as they can possibly get along without water. Live stock need plenty of water all the time.
