This starts the growth of volunteer wheat and tends to bring an early emergence of the fly. It also makes plowing much easier at a later date. Three or four weeks after disking the ground should be plowed at least six inches deep and all volunteer wheat and stubble buried. This will ‘also bury practically all the fiies.” The agronomy deépartment has shown that where the ground is prepared in this manner it not only produces maxi- mum yields, but that the crop may be planted” with safety later in the sea- son. The sowing of the crop should be de- layed until the fly free date, which the entomology department will furnish any farmer for his particular section of the state. The date of safe sowing in average years is at least as early as the date on which wheat should be sown to make maximum yields. To obtain the best results in controlling the Hessian fly farmers should co-op- crate in fighting the insects. That many farmers are successful in preventing serious damage by the Hes- sian fly is well illustrated in the east- ern part of McPherson county and the western part of Marion county this year. In this section the control meas- ures advocated on the “Hesslan fly spe- cial” conducted by the agricultura] col- lege in co-operation with the Santa Fe Railway company in June, 1915, were put into effect by the majority of the farmers. PLANTING PEAR TREES. Good Distance Is Fifteen by Thirty Feet. A good distance for planting stand- g i lmlllllllllllllll!l I LOSING A i Our entire stock of Men's, Ladies’ and Children’s Low Shoes must ard pear trees is 15 by 30 feet—that is, the rows are thirty feet apart and the trees fifteen feet apart in the rows. The object of this method Is to obtain larger crops of fruit from the same ground until the trees become large enough to interfere with each other; then each alternate tree in the row is cut out, leaving the trees in the entire orchard at a distance of thirty feet each way. This system has the advan- tage of more fully utilizing the land for fruit production until the thinning out becomes necessary. Another plan is to plant the-trees twenty feet apart: each way. This distance will afford free circulation of air and abundance of sunlight, both of which are essential to well developed and highly colored fruit. be disposed of to make room for fall stock of high shoes Sale Starts Sat., July 22, KRE-ME-KUTS The Ideal Summer Macaroni.

It sometimes happens that land gets very lumpy or full of clods, and to get the best results these clods should be mashed or ground up. To do this a homemade clod crusher will be found to do the work in a most satisfactory manner. The accompanying drawing shows how such a crusher can be made at home with but slight expense.
