Suceesa With Alfalfa.
Previous to five years ago most of
the attempts to grow alfalfa in Illi-
nois and neighboring states had re-
sulted In failures, but since that time
there have been many successes, and
these successes have led many far-
mers to embark gulte heavily in the
growing of alfalfa. To a large extent
perhapa the successful growing of this
depends on the proper Inoculation of
the soil with the bacteria that makes
the nodule In which is gathered the
ultrogen from the air to be changed
Into a form that can later be used
by the rootlets of the plants for food.
The sending out by the Illinois ex-
periment station of large quantities
of inoculated soil has been a step in
advance and has commenced the ino-
culation of the soil In many widely
separated sections. In the meantime
the apparent fact that the bacteria
that works on sweet clover Is the
same that works on alfalfa Is another
sign pointing to the successful grow-
ing of alfalfa la states where it has
been little grown In the past
There are many sections of Illi-
nois and Michigan where the writer
has seen aweet clover growing In
abundance, and it is very likely that
alfalfa on such lands will prove suc-
cessful. Perhaps one reason why al-
falfa has not In the past done well
on such lands Is that the bscterla on
the sweet clover did not come into
contact with the roots of the alfalfa.
Sweet clover does not in the main
grow In cultivated fields, but by the
hard roadside. In fact it is sverse
to cultivation. We would suggest to
our readers that those living In
region where sweet clover grows
thickly by the roadside should sow
some alfalfa in a cultivated field and
carry some soil from the roadside
where the sweet clover grows for Ino-
culation, and at the same time plant
a patch of alfalfa In a plsce distant
from the places where the sweet clov-
er and other alfalfa are growing, but
on the same kind of soil. This latter
will be a check plot by which the
success of the other treatment can
be Judged.
A few cases of this kind will prove
of little value,' but there should be
several hundreds of farmers that are
In a position to make this experiment
this spring. The results may be far
reaching, for If a way la found to
grow alfalfa successfully In the coun-
ties where It Is not now grown It will
add immensely to the profits of the
farms in such localities.

Crepe for ths Orchard.
When the orchnrd ls young and the
soli Is rich. It will genernlly pay to
grow either corn or vegetables for ths
years during which the trees ars
reaching the stage of fruit bearing
Corn is one of the best crops to grow,
for the reason that much of Its sub
stance is mads up of starch, which Is
taken from the air. Then It requires
cultivation and is generally manured,
especially when it is grown in a email
way. It does not form a mat to keep
the moisture from the roots of ths
trees. It has the additional good qual-
ity of being largely grown, and, ao
matter how large the orchard, the
corn crop can always be used to ad-
vantage. Then the stalks of the corn
plant are serviceable for blading
around the trees for protection agalast
rodents and sunacald. In the case ol
growing cora the rows should not be
run too close to the trees, as It Is un-
desirable to draw the fertility from
immediately around the trees, and it
Is also undeslrabls to cultivate close.
In this day of low heading of fruit
trees it will be dlfflcult to drive very
close to the trees without injuring
the low drooping branches.
Potatoes and tomatoes are two
classes of vegetables that may be
growa In the orchard to advaatage,
as both require to be clean cultivated,
and uaually receive good applications
of manure in some form. Frequently
the growing of these crops pays al)
the expenses of keeping up the orch
ard, and when the latter comes lntc
bearing it starts in without being a
debtor to the man that owns It. Noth-
ing, however, should be done or grown
that will in any way Injure the futur*
usefulness of the orchard.

Sprsylng for Potato Blight.
Where there has been trouble with
potato blight, spraying has been re-
sorted to successfully for the checking
of this fungus disease. It has been
found that some varieties of potatoes
are more resistant to blight than are
others, and that as a general thing the
early varieties are first attacksd. This
may be due to the possible fact that
the early potato vines reach a partly
mature stage before the others.
Spraying will delay the attack on all
varieties but will not entirely prevent
the attacks. But always the spraying
will give results thst will more than
pay the cost, and will frequently stop
the blight altogether. The spray used
Is the well-known Bordeaux Mixture,
which ls made as follows: Four
pounds copper sulphate, four pounds
lime and fifty gallons of water. Dis-
solve the copper sulphate in hot water
or from a coarse bag suspended In
cold water. 81ake the lime separately.
Dilute the copper sulphate to about
twenty gallons and dilute the lime to
ten gallons. Pour the diluted lime
Into the diluted copper sulphats. Stir
ths mixture while the mixing ls being
done. Then dilute to 60 gallons. 8ome
mske It stronger by diluting only to
forty gallons. The sprayings should
bs done about July, but this will de-
pend on the time of planting. Three
sprayings should do the work. But
It is well to keep a good watch over
the vines till the middle of August.
Some of our potato growers that
have had heavy losses from the pres-
ence of blight have rscclved great
benefits from the use of this spray and
have Increased the yield of their po-
tatoes from SO to 60 per cent, the
comparison bslng made with plots left
unsprayed. The spray mentioned Is
not expensive and can be quickly
used. Its benefits are for la excess
of cost and labor.
When to Stop Cultivation.
Cultivation of the orchard should
generally be stopped by the end o1
July. This is especially the case with
old orchards that are being cultivated
for the first time. In the case of ac
orchard that has been cultivated right
along there can be little or no harm
In cultlvntlng at any time of year. Ii
will then stop growing in mld-summei
and will spend the rest of Its tlm<
iHd^nergy In hardening up ita wood.
But the orchard that baa not beer
much cultivated or even that has not
been cultivated in the spring of thlt
year will be Injured by giving It extra
atteation of this kind In the lata
summer and fall. If, however, ths
trees are carrying a heavy crop of
fruit, cultivation may be continued
later than if ths trees are bare or
have little fruit on theas. The
amount of plant food set loose
then go Into the fruit that is
produced and the late d<
of buds and of wood will not occur,
la fact, In dry climates sad dry sea-
sons the Iste cultivation may prevent
the fruit-laden trees from becoming
weakened from lack of moisture. Then
aa there ls a great deal of loas of
molature from the uncultivated ground
and the fruit on the trees Is requiring
a great deal for its development there
ls sometimes Injury to ths tree from
the supply of moisture being lessened
or cut off. i
Tobacco for Weoly Aphis.
Tobacco dust can be obtained from
the great tobacco manufacturing es-
tablishments for about one cent per
pound if purchased in large quaatltles.
Some of our best investigators of In-
sect troubles of the orchard say that
thla dust is a destroyer of wooly aphis
and can be used to advantage around
every fruit tree that la or has been
affected. The usual mode of tppU-
cation is to dig away the soil froi
around the tree to a distance of two
feet each way and to a depth of ssy
four inches. About five pounds of the
tobacco lost Is spread ovsr this place
and the dirt put back. This Is to
prevent the dust b*lng blown away
by the winds or washed away by the
ralna. The rain that falls will carry
the nicotine from the tobacco to all
parts of the roots of the tree affected
by the aphis and they will be killed.
It will also prevent the coming of
other broods of the aphis. The to-
bacco ls worth for fertiliser all It
costs, sift Its lnssctlcldal value Is an
absolute gain. The work of applies-
tlon may therefore be set down as
the only cost of the protection it nf-
fords.

Nurse Crops for Clever.
The agricultural world will be In-
terested In noting the results of some
experiments being carried oa this
summer by Professor Olio of the
Iowa Agricultural college. Mr. Olla
has arranged with Mr. Cook, the pro-
prietor of the Brookmont farms, near
Cdeboit Iowa, to seed 1,*20 acree
with clover with various nurse crops.
On a part of this area clovsr was
seeded with oats at seeding time, on
another part with barley, aad the
third part will be plaated to corn, aad
the clover will be sown Just ahead of
ths cultlvstors ths last time the e
Is cultivated. Mr. Cook furnishes all
seed aad labor, while the lows experi-
ment station supervises ths work aad
makes saturate observations on the
growth of the clover.
