ISEEDLING GROWTH IS
RETARDED BY BRUSH
1
Ittose Spacing Desirable to Pro1
duce Best Timber.
H -{When Tops of Trees Begin to IntMfr
jKJamlngle and Crowd Each Othar
Some of Them Should Be Cut
Out for Best Results.
|||j i<P**pared by the United States Depart*
ment of Agriculture.)
When cut-over land is planted 'n
m hard -wood seedlings, it may happen
P that a natural bushy growth will for
a few years outgrow the planted trees,

Interfere seriously with their development.
To insure the proper development
of the seedlings, forest specialists
of the United States Department
of Agriculture say in Fanners' Bulletin
112.1. "Growing and Planting
Hardwood Seedlings on the Farm," It
is necessary to cut down the brush
for two or three years. When old
trees with wide-spreading crowns
threaten to shade the seedlings so
they will not develop properly, the
bulletin suggests that such trees be
^]|t out a few .years after the new
planting has been started.
To produce clean-bodied timber,
closo spacing Is desirable. When the
tops of the trees begin to intermingle
and crowd each other, however, they
become like overcrowded vegetables in
a garden. Growth is stagnated. A
good gardener will pull some of the
vegetables in a garden that have
reached this condition. When trees
have reached a similar stage, some of
them 6hould be cut out. In both cases
the result is the best development of
the remaining part rather than a poor
development of the original number.
The best formed and most healthy
trees should be permitted to remain,
and the others that are likely to interfere
with their growth should be removed.
Thinnings are usually necessary
when a plantation becomes twenty
years old, sometimes sooner. The
openings in the crown-cover of the
stand made by removing trees should
not be too large to prevent the growth
of the remaining tree tops from covering
the gaps in from three to five
years. When poles ar^ cut for farm
uae, a crude form of thinning may be
accomplished by care in the selection
of trees with a view to the Improvement
of the stand.
Pruning of tree branches la usually
unnecessary, and, because of the cost
labor, undesirable. If a tree Is
pruned too far up It may become topheavy
and easily broken by severe
winds. The catalpa, ash and black
cherrv are known to have suffered
from this, and it seems likely the same *
Is troe of many other species. If, because
of wide spacing, pruning is necessary,
It should be conducted In late
winter or early spring, and should not
be overdone.
' DEVICE FOR CLEANING GRAIN
South Dakota Man Has Invention for
Improving Grain Which Is Simple
In Construction.
The Scientific American 1^ Illustrating
and describing an invention of C. la
liettler of Menno, S. D., says:
This invention relate? to a device
for cleaning, cooling and drying grains
by air blasts. The object Is to produce
a device hy which various grains
A Vertical Longitudinal Section of the J
Cleaner. a
may be cleaned, cooled, dried and oth- J
erwlse Improved, which Is simple In *
construction, easy to make and car- 3
ries no mechanical parts to get out of *
order, or require lubricating. 2
SPRAYING KILLS HONEY BEES J
Discovered That Solutions Applied te *
Apple Trees Are Destructive to Lit- H
tie Insects. i
A series of tests to determine th? \
effect of spray solutions on honey bees <
Is to be undertaken by the California u
College of Agriculture, following the J
discovery that heavy spraying of ap- a
pie trees when they are In bloom has Jj
resulted in great loss to bees seeking , <4
nectar. It is pointed out that be?s ?
are tne oroiaruisis uesi menus, n? i
they help pollenization.
SOIL IS IMPROVED BY LIME
In Caustic Form It Flocculates Land,
Bringing About More Ganular
Condition.
ESj^^The tilth, or friable condition, of
H soil is improved by the presence of
PPPthBe. Lime, especially in the caustic
torn,. fccculates the soil and ^thereby
brings about a more granular and
parous conditio^
Mark Twain's Elephant.
Most of us receive white elephants
at Christmas, minus trunks and tails, ^
but Mark Twain, the American humorist,
actually received an elephant <
one Yuletide. Just before the festive
season a great friend wrote and
told him if he was willing to accept an
elephant as a token of his regard, it I
would arrive in due course. Whether
Mark looked upon the whole thing a9
a joke or not one cannot sav, but he
answered the letter by return mail,
thanking his friend for the offer, and
agreeing to accept the animal. First,
a huge supply of hay was delivered,
then an elephant trainer was announced
to inspect the premises, to
see that there was proper accommodation
for the beast, and finally, the animal
itself appeared upon the scene. It
was a very fine specimen, and, to the
oasuul observer, it might have come 1
straight from India. However, on its
new master closely inspecting it, he
found his Christmas present was most s
beautifully modeled of cardboard. An 0
amusing practical Joke, but somewhat c
expensive. ' I
a
New Airplane. ^
Builders of the "bat-wing" airplane j
have designed the new craft to over- t
coine the resistance of struts, wires t
and fuselage that in the usual type I
of machine consumes almost three
quarters of the engine power. The ?
new design, says Popular Mechanics
Maeazine. is a great double cambered
airfoil that terminates at right and t
left in the conventional ailerons and i
that tapers In the rear to a tall that o
has the usual elevator and rudder. ?
The aerofoil measures 100 feet from
tip to tip and swells in the tront to a ^
thickness of seven feet. In that bulge is
a cabin 30 feet long, eight feet wide
and six feet in height. The new plane
is an Internally trussed cantilever
structure covered with wood veneer
bo tough that the wing surfaces can ^
be walked upon. J
Faulty Diet *
In an Investigation of 227 diets sup- J
posed to be typically American, Prof. B
H. C. Sherman of Columbia university 3
has found that only one was deficient
In protein, while 37 were lacking in
calcium. If each of the low-energy
diets was Increased to 3,000 calories,
none would lack protein, but seven ^
per cent would still have too little cal- j
clum. The needed calcium carbonate (
or phosphate can best be supplied by )
foods rich in lime. Of these milk has I
the advantage of Increasing the highgrade
proteins and providing the es- ~
sential fat-soluble vitamine.
