These facts were brought out by about 600 replies to an Inquiry ad dressed to farmers in central Elinols by the office of farm management, United States department of agricul ture.

Lor^-st and Acacia Build Up Poor Soil ^ iT.rough NitrogeiLQathering Bac teria In Root Nt^ule.—Small Guinea Checked^ (Prepared by the United State. Depart ment of Agriculture.) Timber is essentially a poor-land crop. Steep slopes, poor soil, rocky land, unusual comers, gullied 'and wooded tracts—all these'afford oppor* tunities for growing timber profitably. A careful survey of the average farm will reveal a surprising number of spots of this sort which can be ntlllzed to advantage. If they do not already have trees, planting them with the proper varieties will materially in crease the value of the land. Certain kinds of trees, like the lo cust and the acacias, build up poor soil througli the nitrogen-gathering bacteria in the root nodules, accord ing to the forest service. United States department of agriculture. The soil building power of trees on slopes is a fact which the fanner should not overloQk. Steep lands, which have been cleared of timber at much ex pense, after being cultivated for a few years often become gullied, and the rich lands adjoining are covered with deep deposits of sand. The surest and cheai)est method of protecting such slopes is to maintain forests on them. Small gullies can be stopped up by/* closely packed brush and treetops, an.

INSURE RAPID TREE GROWTH Sod-Mulch Method Is Not Intended for Trees Just Planted—Aim to Conserve Moisture. The conditions for young trees should be made so favorable that they will start rapidly Into growth so that a good, well-rlpened growth will be assured before winter. While the sod- mulch method of growing trees gives very good results under certain condi tions It Is not Intended for trees which have just been planted. When the sod- mulch' piethod Is adopted It Is usually after the trees are well established, when the ground Is seeded do\vn to grass and when sod Is formed the grass Is cut and a pile put about each tree. This kills out the sod about the tree, allows air to penetrate readily and conserves moisture. The drawback to this system Is that very often there la not sufficient material grown In the orchard to make enough mulch for each tree, an^ the sod Is not conserved. ADD FERTILIZER TO MANURI Yield of Corn Increased by Eleven Bushels Per Acre In Experiment at Ohio Station. The fact that manure Itself Is not a balanced plant food, but may, wltlr profit, be reinforced with phosphate, li becoming more and more a matter of general knowledge. At the Ohio experiment station fer tilizer added to manure, increased the yield of corn by 11 bushels per acre. The residual effect of the fertilizer Increased the wheat crop which fol lowed the .mrn by five and a half bush els per acre. The clover crop, follow ing the wheat, showed a gain of 1,100 pounds of hay per acre. The fertilizer paid for Itself three times.

BUILT MANY CENTURIES AGO Florida's Shell Mounds Believed to Date Back to Before Beginning of Christian Era. 0' Florida’s shell mounds, which are found In different portions of the state, are unquestionably of human construction, and were probably built by some race of people who Inhabited the country about the beginning of the Christian era. These mounds were found overgrown with herbage and forest as long ago as when the first, red man .set foot In Florida, and the fact that the deposit of earth above them was .sufficient to give place to the root of trees proved their great age. There have been found in all these mounds pieces of pottery Imbedded ia the shell conglomerate, as well as ar ticles made of shell and bone, rude stone implements and many bones of fish and animals, such as deer, terra pin, rabbf?&>> alligators and others. There are in the entire ‘ state about forty mounds, the most important of which are those of King Phillip’s town, near the outlet of Lake Harney, which are 450 feet long, from 100 to 150 feet broad, and with an average height of eight feet. fer.
