Our readers will remember that | we frequently referred to one of the former idols of the base ball fans Mr. Charles Cassel, who has been playing ball the past summer. Seems as though “Cass” struck his real stride or Dbaseballically his second time on earth. He was a member of the Payette team of the| Idaho-Oregon league. Mr. Cassel | was captain of his team, playing short and second all season. He had nine triples and quite a num- ber of two-baggers and lead the] league in batting with an average | of .472_a mark that would give Cobb, Mackson, or any of the big ones heart failure to look at. This will be very good news to Mr. Cas-| sel’s many friends here. DR.

CONTROL OF SMUT, HESSIAN FLY AND PROPER FEEDING PRAC. | appearance LATE SKEDING AND JUDICIOCUS FEEDING RECOMMENDED BY DE. PARTMINT OF AGRICULTURE. Methods for controlling the Hes- sian fly, the worst pest of the wheat | field, in the fall-wheat-growing sec- tions may be summarized as follows: Sow the best of seed in thoroughly prepared, fertile soil after the major portion of the fall brood has made its passed out of exist. and ence, and, if possible, sow on ground | not devoted to wheat the preceding year. TICALL. AND PROFITABLE. Farm practice on thousands of American and European farms, to- gether with the results obtained by more than 50 years’ testing by foreign experiment tations combined with more than 20 years’ work by American experiment tio have demon- strated that the and net profits from the United States’ wheat crop can be Increased many times. The | elimination of smut from wheat in the | United States would save American farmers from ten to fifteen million dollars annually. The control of the Hessian fly would save many times that amount. The use of a sufficient amount of a bal anced plantfood ration has added from 8 to 10 bushels per acre to the aver- age annual yield of a single com- munity. Sixteen Pennsylvania farm- ers, by the use of 500 pounds of fer- tilizer per acre, raised an average of 80 bushels of wheat per acre. Last summer 36 farmers in one section of Virginia averaged 38.1 bushels per acre. STAMP OUT THE FLY “Three things are necessary in wag: | ing a successful warfare against the Hessian Fly, viz.: thorough prepara tion of the soil, so as to form the best possible conditions for germina: tion; heavy fertilization, if the soil is not already in good condition, se as to insure a quick and rapid growth, and late sowing so as to compel the flies to go elsewhere to deposit their eggs.” This extract from Bulletin 194 of the Indiana Experiment Station econ: tains in a nutshell the main condi tions to be handled in the control of the pest. The Illinois Circular 146 al s0 makes a good point when it de clares: “A vigorous wheat plant is much better able to reaet against an attack of the fly, especially by stool ing freely or throwing out an abund- ance of new shoots from the root. Whatever tends, consequently, to give vigor to the plant reduces proportion: ally the percentage of loss.” This leads to the conclusion that a fertilizer containing at least 2 per cent ammonia and at least 10 per cent available phosphoric acid may be the salvation of the crop, and the exper} ence of many users bear this out How the Name Was Given The common name, “Hessian Fly,” was long ago bestowed upon this insect by Americans, because of its having committed some depredations on Long Ie land, New York, in 1779, in the vieinity of Lord Howe's old en- campment of three years before. The Hessian mereenartes who constituted a part of this army were much despised, both at home and in America, and, on the supposition that these sol- diers had brought the pest with them from their native country in the straw used for their bed- ding while en route, it was given the obnoxious name of “Hessian Fly.”—Farmers’ Bulletin, No. 640, U. S. Department of Agri culture. On Wednesday evening the ban-| quet was held. Covers were laid for 150.

While it may seem “far fetched” to bring forward as a preventive meas- ure the enrichment of the soil, a fer tile soil will produce plants that will withstand with little injury attacks that will prove disastrous to plants growing on an impoverished or thin soil. This is because a fertile soil will enable an infested plant to tiller freely, and these tillers will have suffi- clent vitality to withstand the winter | and send up head-producing stems in the spring. It is also chiefly on the | thin or impoverished soils that the difficulty of sowing late enough to | evade the fall attack and at the same | time secure a growth sufficient to withstand the winter is encountered, ! and whatever can be done to obviate | this difficulty will constitute a pre- ventive measure.—Farmers’ Bulletin 640, United States Department of Ag riculture.
