Timely Reminders from
The Pennsylvania State College
SCAB-—Apple scab is still showing up
in _ increasing quantity, and shows
signs of becoming a serious menace this
season. If it has been controlled by the
usual sprays thus far, one more applica-
tion should complete control, The lime-
sulphur spray should be made immedi-
ately.
LIVE STOCK-It is very essential
that proper shade be provided for sheep
and bogs that are on pasture. Serious
losses frequently occur during the hot
days of early spring and summer where
there is no protection from the hot sun,
Shade trees or any temporary shade pro-
vided at a small expense will avoid
heavy losses,
DESTROY WEEDS—Weeds are a
great menace to crops, robbing them of
plant food and moisture, They are
best killed just as they start to grow.
Land plaated to corn and potatoes may
be harrowed just before the plants come
up. Once over with a slant toothed
barrow in the nick of time is more ef.
fective in destroying weeds than when
they are well established, Kill them
early.
GARDEN~Twisted and broken as-
paragus tips make just as good winter
soup as the finest marketable shoots.
See that they are not wasted as there
are few palatable dishes than asparagus
soup.
DAIRY According to the last census,
Pennsylvania is the second state in the
Union in production of fabm cheese,
This is a large industry and a profitable
on many farms, Specific directions for
the manufacture of farm cheese may be
secured from the Dairy Husba:
