Spray of Early Harvest Blackberry.

For many yoars tho Early Harvest blackberry has maintained Its place as the loading standard extra early blackberry all over tho United States, and so far no rival lias ever been able to displace it. It Is endowed with somo qualities that will not bo easy to surpass and which havo fairly won it its position as a ronlly groat market and family berry, says Orange Judd Farmer. In productiveness It is unexcelled. It loads Itself with fruit in an astonishing way that must be soon to be believed. It is no uncommon thing for a picker to gather a PROTECT TREES FROM RABBITS Many Fruit and Shade Ornaments Are Lost -A.nnuu.lly by Being Girdled by Little Animals. BV J. K. MUXDELL.) Many fruit and shade treos are lost annually by being girded by rabbits. The season in which most or the damage is done is during the winter months. With regard to remedies, there are several advocated and these aro usually of two forms. The trunk of the tree is either painted with some solution or wrapped with some material. Many patent protectors are on the market, such as wire colls and thin sheets of wood. The wire coil protector slips over the tree and can be left on the year around and until the tree gets too large for the coil. Then it must be removed. When the sheets of wood are used they are put on the tree In tho fall and are removed in tho spring. A strip of the wood sufficiently large to extend around the tree is used. It tied on with some kind of cord, care being taken to tie It firmly so it will stay. There are many other methods of protecting treos than the above, two of which are here described. These are as follows: Paint the trunks of tho trees with limo wash made rather thick, to which has been added about one-half pound of arsenate of lead to each pailful of wash. The lime wash is made in the usual manner by mixing

TEMPORARY FENCE FOR SHEEP

gallon of berries without moving from his tracks. With all that it is a vigorous grower, makes a largo, well-shaped bush of ideal tree form, Is adaptable to almost any soli and climate, and is always roady to reward tho grower with a heavy crop of fruit that is always the first of its kind on tho market and, therefore, brings h'gh prices. Its sizo and flavor depend much upon its general treatment. When closely pruned to prevent overbearing and well fertilized, the berries are of good size, a shiny, attractive black, juicy and well flavored.

lime and water. After adding tho arsenate of lead the whole mixture should be thoroughly stirred to mix tho poison with the wash. This wash is put on with an ordinary paint brush and the trunk of the tree should bo covered as high as the rabbits can reach. It should be renewed if there is any Indication of injury to the trees by rabbits. One-half pound of paris green may be substituted for the arsenate of lead. The trunks of tho trees are wrapped , with paper, the paper being tied on with corn to hold It in place. Old newspapers may be used for the above ' purpose, the care necessary being to ' see that tho paper entirely covers the , trunk of the tree high enough to prevent the rabbits reaching the exposed portion above the paper. Adopting a Lamb. In case an ewe loses her Iamb she should be made to adopt a twin, and this is often a difficult thing to do. One of the best methods is to strip the skin from the dead lamb while It is yet warm and place It over the body of the lamb that is to be adopted, tying it on by wrapping a light string about it many time. Then if this little orphan in another's clothing is placed with the mother, nine times out of ten she will adopt it without protost. As soon as the lamb has suckled two or three times the skin may be removed and no further difficulty will be experienced. Breeds of Hogs. There are many breeds of hogs nnd all have their partisans; but any hog is a good hog that will keep on growing Into money every day. However, no breed will do this without intelligent care. fence three and one-half feet high will tarn most flocks. The Orchard. You can double tho value of your orchard in ono year when properly treated.

90,000 AMERICAN SETTLERS GO TO CANADA

THE YEAR 1909 HAS SHOWN AN INCREASE OF OVER EIGHTY PER CENT IN AMERICAN SETTLEMENT. Recent advices from Canada, our next door neighbour, tho neighbourly country across tho boundary line, are that upwards of ninety thousand settlers from the United States went into Western Canada during the past year, most of them for tho purpose of taking up an settling upon tho vacant lands, 1C0 acres of which are given free by the government, and lands adjoining held by railway and land companies are selling at from nine to fifteon and twenty dollars per acre. Even If thirty and forty dollars per acre were paid, tho price would be low, as the lands produce wonderfully, and at these higher figures there Is a largo interest on the money and labor invested. Tho ninety thousand settlers of last year, followed about sixty thousand of the previous year, and for several years the number has been running into these large figures. There must be a reason for it It may bo found In the singlo phrase, "they are satisfied." Nothing attracts people more than the success of others, and the news of this reaching other thousands, causes them to Investigate. Tho investigation in this case Is always satisfactory. The splendid land of Iowa, of Indiana, of Nebraska, Kansas, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio and other States has risen to a high value, and it is worth every dollar asked for it But there is not room now for all on these lands. With the ever increasing demand for grain, there comes tho ever increasing demand for land. Canada is the only country on the continent in a position to supply it. Land there that costs, say fifteen dollars an acre, produces on a reasonable calculation, 25 bushels of wheat to the acre, or about $20.00. The most liberal calculation as to cost makes the cost to produce $7.50 per acre, leaving a balance of $12.50 per acre. The $7.50 carries good wages for the farmer, and all other conceivable contingencies. With conditions like this, covering the entire area of about 500,000 square miles, it is readily understood why 90,000 Americans should follow tho sixty thousand of the previous year. Canadian Government Agencies at different points in the Union are always ready to give information regarding the free homestead lands, ready to advise the settler as to tho districts which would suit him best.

Rich Territory Opened Up. The development of tho Brazilian Amazon valley must in time amount to untold wealth. In the states of Para and the Amazonas and the federal territory of Acre there are near the water's edge 10,000,000 rubberbearing trees of the Hevea variety. These trees, if properly tapped, will live indefinitely and steadily increase their yield. The state of Para is considerably larger than Texas, and much of it will grow excellent cotton.
