Widespread Treatment of Different Peete Has Made Necessary Test ; Ing of Many Remedies ? Many Olle Are Injurious. - (By V. w, MOOHKJ ..... We have at different times had oo caaion to observe injuries to shade trees brought about by various causes, la many oases resulting from treat ment applied by careless or Ignorant persons. The present , widespread treatment of different pests has made necessary the testing of many reme dies, Bome of which have proved to be more Injurious than the pests themselves. These materials have not only been used by careful people trulned In the use of different meth ods for controlling Insects and fungi, Effect# of Spraying Heavy Oil on Tre^s ? The Oil Penetrated the Bark and Killed the Tieeue. but by others who are reckless to the point of seeming to delight in taking chances. Many kinds of oils have been used for spraying Insect peBts, some of which have proved reliable and others injurious. Kerosene oil ctfh be used on some plants under certain, condi tions without causing injury, while In other cases it will kill them. We have seen quite a few shade trees killed by spraying with kerosene and water to exterminate w.oolly aphis; the oil soaked into the bark, reached the cambium and sapwood, destroying the tissue. Gas oil, a heavy oil used In the manufacture of water gas, is very in jurious to trees when used as a spray. A few years ago several hundred shade trees were severely injured in one of the eastern cities by spraying the trunks with this oil to kill clusters of gipsy moth eggs, it being used with out any knowledge whatever of its adaptability to this purpose.-" Ordinary house paint has some times been used on smooth-bark trees with great injury. Occasionally commercial oils used for spraying fruit trees for the San Jose scale cause local Injury, and some shade trees have been known to be affected by their uae. / OlUa and other/ materials to keep down the. dust In roadbedB are now much in use, and we have observed i sbme injury from this ssrarcfc, when the trees were located cloae to the highway and the buttresses of the roots were exposed. Salt used on sidewalks, in gutters and trolley lines In winter has been known to injure the root systems of I trees. ' Arsenate of soda, potassium ! cyanide and other chemlcaU are ex tremely poisonous to trees and will cause death.

More feed can be stored in a given space in the form of silage than In the form of fodder or >ay. 2. TJiere is a smaller lose of food material when a crop la made into all age than when cured utt fodder or hsy. 3. Corn Milage In more eflclent feed than corn fodder. 4. An a<-re of corn can he placed In the silo at less cost than the same area can be bunked and shredded. 5. Crops can be put in the silo dur ing weather that could not be utilized in making hay 6r curing fodder. \6. More Htock can be kept on a given si'Va of land when silage Is the basin of the ration. 7. There Is less waste in feeding silage than in feeding fodder. Good silage properly fed is all consumed. 8. .Silage 1b very palatable. 9. Sijage, like other succulent feeds, has a beneficial effect upon the diges tive organs. 10. 8ilage Is the cheapest and best form in which a succulent feed can be provided for winter use. 11. Silage can be UBed for supple menting pastures more economically than can soffjng crops, because It' re quires less labor, and silage Is more palatable. 12. Converting the corn crop Into silage clears the land and leaves it ready for another crop. ? RACK FOR AIRING MILK PANS 8latted Device Put on Poete ae Illus trated Will Prove Quite Efficient ?

FEED DRY GRAIN TO CALVES Digestive Organ of Young Animal Is Small and Frequent Feedings of Small Amount Is Best. I In feeding skim-milk calves the, grain needed to supply the missing fat may be corn, barley, oats or a mix ture. Occasionally a feeder has skim milk or alfalfa or clover hay on hand, and to these he adds Unseed meal, cot-., tonseed meal of gluten feed. These are all high in protein, and when any one of them Is combined with skim milk and alfalfa ? both high in protein ? an unbalanced ration results and scours or other digestive troubles fol - low. The digestive tract of a calf is small -and - frequent feeding of email amounts during the first month 1b best. During the first month, it is better to grind the grains fed.. At the end of this period either oats or corn may be fed unground. Hard grains like kaflr and mllo give best results when ground. ' All grain should be fed dry in a trough. Mixing feeds with milk Is not recommended, as calves chew their feed better when fed dry. _ ? ? .... GOOD RULES FOR DAIRYMAN Nebraska Station Favors Feeding All the Roughage That the Cow ?
