1 1 RIGHT DEPTH FOR PLANTING PAT CROWE GETS J0B Character of Soil and Climate Should Govern—Roots Get Started If Planted in Fall. The character of the soil and the climate of a region should no doubt govern the depth to which the roots of a fruit tree should be set. For most sections it is generally recommended that the roots be set a little deeper than they stood in the nursery. Very deep pluntl_ng has been emphasized in the prairie states of the northwest, where there is danger of root injury by severe winters. Deep planting is also preferred in the plains where rain- fall is very limited and the ground he- comes very dry in winter. No doubt the roots should be set deeper in loose, sandy solls than in heavier soils. Mest Missouri growers of long experience advocate setting a little deeper than the trees stood in the nursery. Many who have had limited experience cet shelr trees much deeper than this, with the idea that the trees will stand straighter and firmer and that the roots are thus secured against dying out, At the University of Missouri Col- lege of Agriculture shallow planting has given better results than deep planting. This point has been tested repeatedly in different years and thc results of deep and shallow planting have been observed in many orchards of the state. The results indicate that a majority of the trees set In Mis- souri are planted too deep. Deep set roots, especially if spring planted, start growth glowly. The trees usual- ly sway in the wind until a funnel- shaped cavity is formed in the molst sofl about the base of the trunk. Borers enter the trunk below ground more readily where such a cavity is formed than in shallow planted trees around which a dust mulch may be re- tained in close contact with the base of the trunk. Mice find shelter in the soil cavity about a deep-set tree and often girdle it. “Root rot” occurs much more frequently in trees set deep. If trees are set in autumn they may be set an inch or so deeper than they stood in' the pursery. The soil at this season is aired an¢ warmed to a great- er depth. . New root growth starts in early winter on the lower réots which become established for early spring growth. If trees are transplanted in spring they should be set no deeper than they stood in the nursery. It the soil is heavy, spring-set trees should stand a little shallower than they stood in the nursery. In the case of spring-set trees, new root growth starts first on the roots near- est the surface of the soil, which is bet- ter aired and which warms up first. PITS NOT GOOD FOR STORAGE Makeshift Quarters Are Not Satisfac- tory for Keeping Apples—Ven- tilation Is Lacking. (Prepared by the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture.) Pits, caves, and other makeshift quarters do not provide satisfactory storage for apples because it is impos- sible to ventilate and insulate such : 0 Apples, Piled, Graded and Ready for Storage. structures. Hence, it s almost im- possible in them to hold the fruit at a low temperature such as is necessary to prevent deterioration. The temperature of the earth a few feet below the surface remains at ap- proximately 55 degrees throughout the year, and in pit or basement storages which are not properly insulated and ventilated heat is constantly given off from the surrounding earth, and it is difficult to reduce the temperature be- low 40 degrees. The standard temper- ature for the storage of practically all varieties of apples ranges from 31 to 82 degrees Fahrenheit. ¢ NEW CROP OF RASPBERRIES It Will Pay Farmer to Root His Own Plants—Tips Should Go Down Soon as Possible.

O. 2mo123 Thomas Jennings Makes An Actual Gain of Seven- teen Pounds “The best proof I can give that Tanlac was the right thing for me is the way it has relieved my suffer- ings and built me up,” said Thomas Jennings, the well known transfer engineer employed at the Rock Isl- and railroad shops, living at 501 C avenue, North, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, while discussing the medicine, re- cently. “At the time I began taking Tan- lac,” he continued, “I weighed only one hundred and twenty pounds, but I now balance the scales at one hun- dred and thirty-seven, making an actual gain of seventeen pounds, all from the use of five bottles of the medicine. 1 was suffering from a bad case of stomach trouble and a general run down condition, and the results of a severe spell of typhoid fever last fall. In fact, for about two years I had been suffering from gas on my stomach and pains all through my body. I could not eat without suffering from indigestion afterwards and I had lost weight un- til I was almost a living skeleton. I had gotten to the point where I could hardly keep going. “Seeing Tanlac so highly endorsed I got a bottle and had not taken but a few doses until there was a de- cided change in my feelings. I have taken five bottles now and am simply feeling like a brand new man. My pains have all left me and I can eat just anything I want without the least trouble with my stomach. I am feeling just fine and no one could see the wonderful change Tanlac has made in me and doubt it being a great medicine. If I ever need medi- cine again I will certainly get Tanlac for I know now what it will do. I am telling all my friends about it and gladly recommend it to anyone who wants the best.” Tanlac is sold in Bemidji by the City Drug Store, in Kelliher by Mrs. R. Sterling, in Blackduck by French & Moon, and in Baudette by J. Wil-; liams. | FOR ANY kind of rea: estate deal, see or write E. J.
