The Wealthy is a standard apple for early fall, but unless you have facili ties for cold storage do not plant it largely south of the latitude of south- ■em- WisconsInj-central-Iowa-and- cen tral Nebraska. North of that it has some keeping quality and the farther north'it can be grown the better it keeps. Even in central Iowa if picked In early maturity—just as the seeds turn brown—it will keep until mid- \wlnter. Plant Ben Davis, N. W. Greening, Salome, Minkler or Black Annette and you will have fruit which will keep until you have time to sell it. But take another hint—do not take the INSECT PESTS EASY TO KILL IN WINTER Destroy Trash and Litter When ever It Has Accumulated— Cut Out Dead Limbs. VBy T. J. TALBERT, Missouri Agricul tural Experiment Station.) Take advantage of the bugs in their Winter quarters, the remnants of old plants, the trash and litter about the garden and orchard. Burn out the fence rows, destroy the trash and litter wherever it has accumulated by burn ing it or plowing it under. . Cut out the dead trees and limbs in the orchard and make them Into firewood.' This cleaning up about the orchard and garden will destroy a dozen or more of our most destructive pests. For example, the plum curcullo is now wintering as a full-grown beetle In the trash and litter along the fence rows or about the trees; the codling moth will be found in the worm stage within a silken cocoon tucked away under the shelly bark o f dead trees and dead limbs; and the fruit tree bark beetles cr shot hole borers will also be found wintering mostly as adult beetles in dead or dying trees.- Under the old stalks and .rubbish in the garden and about the borders wifi be -found the. adult asparagus beetle, bean-leaf beetle, harlequin cabbage bug, flea beetles, the striped cucumber bee tle and the .chrysalis of the cabbage worm. 'I f you want to kill these pests, :plle and burn dead tomato and pea vines and other remains of vegetation In the garden and along the border. Deep fa l l ' or early winter plowing will also destroy many insects. . This is especially true of the cutworms,' po tato beetles, white grubs and/ wire worms which are now hibernating in the soil. Late fall or early -winter plowing will turn these insects up near the surface and expose them to an at tack, o f birds, poultry and other ani mals. At tliis season of the.year the Insects are in a dormant or semidor- 'fli&nt'condition, and when brought up number to twenty. Get good, thrifty two-year-old trees and set .them 23 feet apart. The ground may be plant ed with coca or potatoes or soms other hoed crop for the first fiv* years. — If-ybu are-planting simply for home use, not intending to market, one tree of the Wealthy is enough. If the Jon athan and Delicious succeed in your neighborhood, by all means include them in your list, fîlack Annette and Salome are good- keepers and are hardy In tree in the north middle sec tions of apple growing; and they are also very good apples in quality. Then, with the N. W. Greening and the old reliable Ben, you will be sure to have fruit, if anybody has fruit. near the surface of the ground they are unable to go deeper in the soil or td construct new cases or cocoons and they are killed by being subjected to excessive weather conditions and to the alternate freezing and thawing. Fall plowing and cultivation will also enable you to have vegetables a week or ten days earlier next spring, because .you. •will be able to plant earlier on-fall-plowed ground. SWINE IN ORCHARDS CAUSE MUCH INJURY Never Safe to Permit Hogs or Cattle Among Fruit Trees Un less Grass Is Plentiful. The question Is often asked, “Is it safe to let hogs run in. an orchard?” It will be safe if you will watelf'two or three important points. One* is to be sure and see that the hogs do not get to rubbing the trees hard, as in the process of scratching themselves. Sometimes when hogs have Hce they will rub against the trees and thus cause considerable damuge or injury to the tree. This damage may finally end in collar blight of the apple, and by this means the hogs also aid in spreading the collar blight or rot which is far the most serious disease of the apple tree. Another point to watch is that hogs do not root out the roots of the young trees. If there are white grubs ia the ground close to the roots the hogs may root there to obtain them and by tear ing out the roots they would of course do considerable damage. The last point is the possible dam age to the lower branches or low-hang ing friilt, but if such Injury Is observed at the beginning it is easy to prevent it from going further by removing the hogs from the orchard. In general, It may be said that it is never safe to let hogs or cattle run in any kind of orchard young or old, un less, there Is plenty of pasture or food .therein. When the supply runs low, look out (By E. HASEMAN, Missouri Agricultural Experiment Station.) Judging from the numerous . com plaints being received by the Missouri agricultural experiment . station,' it' seems evident that the chinch bug Is threatening next^year’s crops. Over., the state generally the chinch bug’s day was brought to a- close, by the heavy rains of 1915, hut as usual, there were enough “for; seed” this last spring, and with the unusually dry summer just passed these increased abundantly. They seem to be most abundant in the central part o f the state. Through out most of the. corn-and wheat belts of the state -there afe-probably- enough bugs to cause severe outbreaks- next year, if weather conditions should be especially favorable for them. A dry fall, mild winter»,, with but little snow and -rain,—foilow'ed_by,'-a__dry_ spring and summeiLare-the-’conditicms. which will favor the pest. The. chinch bug is abundant now, due to the. favor able summer just - passed, but with plenty of rainfall and snow during the fall, winter, and spring, the chances will be decidedly against outbreaks next summer. Since it Is not possible to know what the fall7~wintefr~iHd~sprlng_may“ have In store in the way of favorable or unfavorable ‘ weather, every farmer should do everything possible to re duce the chance of chinch-bug in juries next summer by getting rid of favorable winter quarters. They winter in dry, protected places, such as mead ows, pastures, and waste lands, In woods, neglected fence rows, and sim ilar places. Very few winter in corn fields or in wheat fields. After killing frosts have come, select-a dry day when there is not too much wind and burn over fields, woods, and other fa vorable winter quarters. The heat will kill many of the bugs and' expose the rest to the winter and to natural enemies.. This pest can be fought sue- cessfufiy at only two times during the year, namely: while-clustered- in - win ter quarters, and while migrating 'from wheat to corn in the summer. Now is the time to get ready to fight the pest while in winter quarters and prevent it from proving destructive next year. A recurrence of this pest like the out breaks of 1912, 1913, and 1914, which imaged Missouri crops at least $5,- ©’,000, should he prevented if possi ble. COULD TRUST HIS MEMORY ‘HOLDING WOOD IN SAWBUCK Illustration Shows Device for Prevent ing Stick. From Rolling While Being Sawed. Anyone who has used a sawbuck knows how inconvenient it is to have a stick roll or lift up as the saw blade .is pulled back for the next cut. With the supplementary device, shown In the sketch, from Popular Mechanics, which can be easily attached to the Stirrup Holds Wood. sawbuck, these troubles will be elim inated. It consists of two cross pieces hinged to the back uprights of the sawbuck and a foot-pressure stir rup fastened to their front ends as • shown. Spikes are driven through the i crosspieces so that their protruding ends will gouge into the stick of wood being sawed. The stirrup is easily . thrown back for -laying a piece o f wood in the crotch. Mr. Wanamaker Able to Turn at Once to Any Book on His grilles of Shelves. A couple of weeks ago John Wana maker did somellilng which he sdldhe had not done before In his 55 years’ ex perience as a merchant. He opened his store on Sunday.\* That will Inter est you even less than something else ' which Mr. Wanamaker did that after- nobn and which was told me by one of the dozen persons who were present, writes “Girard” In tlie Philadelphia Public Ledger. There had been a din ner for a party of distinguished Jap anese visitors, and Mr. Wanamaker volunteered to show the oriental gen tlemen the inside of his store. Before departing from the big gran ite building Mr. Wanamaker said to the chief guest: “Baron, there Is a book here I wish you to have.” Naming another book, Mr. Wana maker walked to another case and got it. Then he proceeded to present to each gentleman present a volume or two, in each Instunce naming what he Intended to give before he went to a bookshelf to ' get it. Which feat of memory caused my Informant to re mark when he related the Incident to me: “I have seen John Wanamaker do a great many extraordinary things In 40 years, but his ability to pick here and there a ba6k out of many thousands amazed me the most.” Paradoxical Effect. ~ “They say the habit of motoring pro duces a fixed, set expression.” “Yes; it seems strange, doesn’t It, that an auto face shouldn’t be also a mobile one?” BEWARE OF THE CROWN-GALL Considerable Danger In Using Rasp- - berries as Fillers Among Fruit Trees in Orchard.

It is therefore now considered the safer plan to use the blackberries for fillers among fruit trees rather than raspberries. Mystery. “What did Rastus git married for?” - “Lnwd only knows, chile.
