Repairing Damage Done Shade Trees
Farmers’ Bulletin Outlines Methods to Be Followed
in Mending Breaks.
{Prepared bj the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
The extensive injury imd destruction of trees of all kinds during recent storms has brought many inquiries to the United Stales Department of Agriculture regarding the proper methods to be followed in repairing the daui«ge | done. The following suggestions are | made by the department. The first tiling that should lie done is , to remove such large broken branches | as are now, or may become, a menace j to life and property; this is usually 1 best done by cutting at the point where oroken. Attention should then he given to injuries on the main trunk. If limbs have been split, or partially split, from the main trunk, all splintered wood about the wound should be removed with a sharp gouge and mallet if not so situated that it can be
sawed off. The scar should b® smoothed in the manner indicated in Farmers’ Bulletin 1178, Tree Surgery, and treated ns an open cavity, or as n large surface wound, as the case (
may necessitate.
Attention to Branches.
Attention should next lie given to . repairing the injuries on the larger brnnehes in a similar manner, and Inst of all to the smaller branches. Some- 1 times when 11 limb is broker, away the ; tree Is so weakened at the point of breakage that it may again break in a severe wind, and to obviate tills the top must be pruned back more or less ; severely. In ease of split crotches, 1 the advice given in Fbrinera' Inilletiu j 117S should he followed regarding the general treatment. Including bolting !
through and above the crack.
In cases of estates where a great j amount of Injury has occurred, and ,, ,
only n comparatively small force ts, 1,lia y WIth >Slt) Koe
available for repairing the damage, | the (Inal cutting of long stubs can lie conveniently left for a time, but wounds or breaks on the main trunk, or close to It, should be attended to promptly, In any case before warm
weather arrives.
It Is not necessary to fill cavities. It Is better In most eases to leave them oi>en. All final cuts should be Immediately covered with some good antiseptic and waterproof palm

Sweet Clover of Great Value as Pasture Crop The advantages of suqet clover are; It Is easily grown, does well on poor, low’, washed land ; Improves soil; withstands drought; yields big first fear; starts up early second year; provides pasture throughout the season; is high In protein; does not bloat; and does not winterkill readily. The disadvantages of sweet clover are that it encroaches on and reduces yield of the grain nurse crop, and that It produces rather coarse hay in second year. Where n finer quality of hay is desired. one should cut the sweet clover with 'the grain the first year. It Is comparable to first cutting of alfalfa with respect to quality at that stage. However, we have found sweet clover of greatest value to us ns pasture because of Its earliness and because of the fact that It remains sweet ap 1 green when blue grass fails, says a writer In an exchange. In contrast to other years we have practically not toucher] our hay supply during summer or fall, as twenty-five acres of splendid sweet clover were available to the cows at the dose of the grain harvest.

Burning: Cornstalks and Straw Is Wasting Humus Gradually farming prosperity has moved from east to west. No'soil can long stand such wasteful methods ns burning cornstalks and straw. Ash is a good fertilizer, to be sure, especially for potato land, but humus Is wasted when plant substance Is burned. Sods are more In need of humus than of s-sh. especially In the old farming sections. One can buy fertilizer to supply the soil with the elements found In ashes, but one cannot afford to buy humus. That must be grown and worked Into the soil. Humtis makes the soil retain Its proj>er working consistency. It helps hold moisture In a drought It helps take ®ff surplus water In a flood. It prevents SOU from baking bard. Nofhfng sub Qffce the ptace of boanis' Work the screw sad awnstalks &1S0 toe sot.

If a farmer raises nothing but wheat 1 ^iIlll l _ l iilli lllllllllllll ' l »»»imiHIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIimiIllimillllimilllllir
and has a poor crop, and a cheap j market, it follows that he has 110 j chance for a profit from his opera- ; tions that season. The farmer who i devotes all of his time to corn may ' have the same trouble. Dairy products sell at a good profit- Poultry products are in demand throughout [ the year. If a farmer has a plot of ground that he can convert into an orchard he can make it a source of revenue. The farmers who have gone in for more than one crop or product are mostly in fair shape financiallyIf they have failed to get returns from one part of the farm they have found some other profitable and in 1 that way their balance sheets may show a gain, despite general adverse conditions. Diversified farming may I call for more capital, more held and a more businesslike management of the farm, but it promises better results | than sticking to *ne thing and facing ' a situation where, if it fails, all it
lost.—Indianapolis News.
