Buckwheat, for e.xample, often pro- duces too much straw and too little grain on rich soils, especially those •oils which are very high in nitro- gen. On the other hand, a fertik- soil is essentia! for profitable yields of wheat and b.-.iley. Rye will grow well on rich soils bu't it is also a particularly good crop for light in- fertile soiLs but, if the soil is un- balanced in its fertility by having an over-abundance of nitrogen in comparison with other elements of fertility, there will be luxuriant tops but small roots.

This is especially true in orchards under sod culture, although even orchards under clean cultivatien are frequently subject to considerable damage from thi-3 cause. The amount of damage Grace Poole, Frances ^jaused by these animals varies great- ly from year to yea:-, depending largely upon their available supply of food. Galvanized wire screen makes the most effective protection. The init- ial cost is high, but as it only ha-s to be placed once and will last for a large number of years, it will be found cheaper in the long run. This wire should be cut into pieces large enough to encircle the trunk and leave room for expansion of tht trunk, as the ti-ee grows. The lowei end should be buried about one inch in the soil, in order to prevent mice from working underneath. â€" E. M.
