GOOD HANDLING I IS AID TO HAY August Clipping Benefits Most Adams County Legume Crops » The proper handling of spring seedings of alfalfa, red and alsike ' clovers or mixtures containing these legumes, along with weed ‘ growth that occurs in many fields, . is one of the vexing problems ahout which Indiana farmers now . are seeking information from Purdue University extension agronontlists. These crops, excepting sweet : clover, will almost always be benefitted by clipping some time lu August, which provides at the same time practical weed control. The most good can be done by .! clipping these weeds before they have set seed, but not so early that ! they will sprout again from the stems to compete with the new growth of legumes. Setting the mower to cut low rather than high, as once recommended, is the best means of destroying rag i weed, lambs quarter, foxtail and similar summer annuals. Low cutI ting does not injure the alfalfa or ' red clover since these crops send up new growth from the crown. Therefore high Cutting favors the weeds instead of the legumes. Hay Making Where the field of legumes to be. clipped is not too weedy the question of making hay is also raised. This legume growth may be removed tor hay if worth saving, or if there is danger to the stand i from smothering. In some cases ' these legumes give promise of a I seed crop, and there is no objecI tion to harvesting them for seed if it seems profitable to do. Such i practice does not destroy the plants and should not interfere ; with production next year. Clipping these legumes after . September 1 will seriously injure ' red clover and to a lesser extent I alfalfa, especially in early October. Clipping daring this period reduces the storage of reserve food material in the root system, as ! well as the amount of new growth ithat serves to protect the plants from excess freezing and heavy injury during the winter. Young sweet clover must be handled differently from these other crops, since it does not make new growth from the crown when clipped, and usually is seriously injured if cut after August. Therefore, young sweet clover should not be clipped unless endangered by weed growth and if it is cut, ! clipping should be high. If it is necessary to cut new stands of i sweet clover for hay the later the ; harvest the less the damage to the | stand. HO BSE \ € smE Concrete floors in poultry houses are easier to keep clean thau other types. The Indiana seed law will protect fall seed purchases only if the buyer studies the seed tag attached to the seed and buys on the I basis of the analysis shown there. Some Indiana apple orcharde will never be profitable. They started out with two strikes against them because the soil was poor and the site was all wrong. It you want an orchard to pay its way, plant it on a deep fertile soil with good air and water drainage. Clearing the ditch is one of those jobs that you never get done if you put. it off until all other farm work is completed. Make it the first order of business some morning and by noon you'll have a ditch that you can proud of for preparing small or less tender cuts a year. Cut down kitchen fuel bills in of beef, veal, and pork by cooking them over surface burners ratber thau in the oven. Early dropped iambs still on the farm had better be sold now. Its a 99 to 1 shot that they'll never bring you any more money. Rye pasture saves feed, lowers cost of production and provides a good cover crop, and help to con-

| How Wheat Crop insurance worKs ' i FARMER BUYS INSURANCE —RAYS PREMIUM INTO RESERVE e-,®* iv] aadlMfe y J; M 1 I 1 < 1 /ivum rW PIL IF CROP IS LOST FARMER IS PAID FROM RESERVE

In response to the stores of requests for information on crop insurance. which will be available to Adams county farmers until Aug. 31, County Agricultural Agent L. E. Archbold today briefly explained how the insurance plan operates in the accompanying illustration. As shown in Figure 1, Adams county farmers will apply for the wheat crop insurance through the county crop insurance supervisor, wording with the county AAA comtrol erosion. Further information on any of | the foregoing topics may be obtained by writing to the Depart- ( meat of Agricultural Extension,; o AVERAGE BEET YIELD FORESEEN • Good Weather Condition May Bring Better Than Normal Yield Prospects in Adams and surrounding counties are for at least an average yield of sugar beets, according to reports from a number of farmers Should the remainder of the season be favorable it is expected that the crop would yield above average. The beets this year are maturing earlier than any year in recent history and have suffered only a normal amount of damage from weather. Rains in the early part of this mouth caused some infestation of blight on the early beets, but apparently did no damage to the late beets. How serious this will be can not be determined at the present, but it is not believed it will cause near the injury to the crop it did last year. A large acreage and a small per cent of loss will enable the Central Sugar Company to make one of its longest runs in history, it is hoped but this is dependent upon future weather conditions. Weather conditions’ will also determine the opening date of the Central Sugar Company’s annual fall campaign. — —o I Uncle-Jim Says pi O/ id Si '■'4WW I rv® "I believe Uncle Jim was right, , John, when he said ample supplies of pork are insured by the Agricultural Adjustment Act which l seeks to double the average corn reserve. I have noticed less variation in the prices of meats."

mittee. The county office will prepare the application and recommend it to the state crop insurance supervisor, working with the state AAA committee with headquarters at Purdue University. The state office will send the application to the branch office at Kansas City for approval. After examining the application, the branch office will prepare pretnittfii notices, which will be sent to the farmer. The farmer will pay TREATMEHTTO TREES GIVEN I Ornamental Tree Care Outlined By New Hampshire Man (By T. A. Marsden, University of New Hampshire gard- ' oner.) So many requests have come in for information on how to treat wounds or rotted sections of ornamental trees that I shall consider it briefly in this article. Those having major problems should consult a commercial tree surgeon. Every broken limb and every other kind of external wound that penetrates to the inner bark may allow parasites or diseases to e'uter unless these injuries receive proper treatment and care. Care of smaller wounds is simple and comparatively Inexpensive. If a

World’s Poultry Congress Scenes z ■ - _ -s*---. lit • ’ ' I i L * '3SU 9 -r~ ■ i IMHihjdW ~* r

In the above pictures are shown some of the scenes where the World's Poultry Congress will be held in Cleveland, July 28 to August 7, 1939. The central picture above shows the Cleveland Museum of Art and grounds surrounding it where some of the activities of the World's Poultry Congress will center. Below are two of the buildings which will house the exhibits. On the right is shown the Hall of Live Poultry and on the left is shown part of the Hall of Nations and States. The two lower buildings cover about four acres and will give room for a great many exhibits. The bird shown on the right above is a mottled Chabo of Japan, while on the left is a Japanese Frizzled Bantam. Over 200 varieties of fowl will be shown at the Congress and almost as many varieties of pigeons. Already several nations have definitely applied for exhibit space and wore than thirty have announced their mt?ution of planning an exhibit.

The policy will be prepared in the branch office and sent with the premium receipt to the county office for delivery to the fanner. If the crop is lost, then the farmer will be paid from the wheat reserve. treated for some years decay producing organisms enter and produce a rotted area. The damage is . I so extensive that a violent wind |! tnay break the tree at the decay- ! ed spots. Do not neglect decayed ' portions that are difficult to reach. ! All decayed tissue must be removed before treatment or your purpose is defeated. In severe cases of trunk injury it is often advisable to remove the entire tree and set a health one in its place. 1 A recommended procedure after cleaning a rotted spot on the tree is to coat the cleaned area with , i ordinary shelac. After the shelac has set, a coat of ordinary commercial creosots, a coal tar product, sometimes called creosote oil ’ may be applied. It is one of the i best preparations for destroying and preventing the growth of wood rotting fungi. This can be applied to a tree wound with an ordinary paint brush. Then the entire shelaced and creosoted surface may ! be painted with a thick, coal tar 1 or asphalt. A cloth swab or a brush 1 made of broom corn is good for

NEW WEEDS ARE ' NAMED NOXIOUS 1 ■l■ It — '■ II 1 Seed Tags To Bear Revis- i ed List Os Weed Seeds ; This Year In 1921 when the Indiana seed J law was passed. 19 weeds were designated as noxious and since that time seedsmen have been required to state on the Indiana seed tafi the maximum number per pound of each of the uoxious weed ‘ seeds present in all agricultural 1 seeds sold In the state for seed- 1 iug purposes. During the last few years, sev- 1 eral new weeds have entered the s state and some of them are threatening to become a serious • menace to Indiana farms. In view t of this fact, Dr. H. R. Kraybill. |t State Seed Commissioner, with I headquarters at Purdue, after a * series of conferences with seedsmen, farmers, and farm organize-' tion officials, decided to revise the ' original list of uoxious weeds. The revised list which becomes effective September 15 includes bindweed, Johnson grass, Perenni-; the following new weeds: Field: al sowthistle, Field peppergrass, | and Bitter winter cress. Os the or-| iginal noxious weeds, the following are also retained on the revised I list: Bracted plantain, Buckhorn,l Canada thistle, Common plantain, | Corn cockle. Curled dock. Dodder Horse nettle, Mustard, Oxeye dai-1 sy. Quack grass. Red sorrel, Wild. carrot, and Wild garlic or wild onion. Indiana state seed tags with the new list of noxious weed seeds' have already been printed and are | now available to those desiring' them. While it wili not be compulsory for these new seed tags to be used prior to September 15, 1938, such tags may be used now if the ! seedsmen so desire.
