It, HarneM of the Minne sota experiment station. "A Hock of chlckeiiH, domiciled In one or more movable 'colony Ihhihch,' will feed to a large extent on the In- HectH ami l.irvae of Innectn found In the ground. Knpeclally will they do thin If the ground In cultivated an It nholild lie for the bent renultn In or chardlng. Many of tliene lnnectn at future Htagen of their existence, If not thun dent royeil, may become agentH of Injury and destruction to treen and fruit. Chicken will also devour the wormy fruit which falln from t lie trees, thus again assisting In the destruction of the codling moth and Home other pests. We read much of the valuable work done by Insect IveroiiH birds in general, lu this ill rectlon. They certainly do enough to merit protection against the shot gun, even though they do occasion ally "take toll" of the fruit. Hut the faithful hen dues (he same work, and w ithout taking anv toll. The con stant scratching helps maintain the moisture-conserving 'dust blanket.' Meanwhile, if the feed they gather from the soil Is properly supplement ed with grain rations, their produc tion of eggs In as large an any where else, and they can be fattened for the market with equal facility. "The presence or absence of bees in an orchard Is often of sutliclent Im portance to determine whether the fruit crop shall be large or small. "Since practically all fruit blos- soins are fructified by the passing of pollen from one (lower to another, and since the wind too frequently falln perfectly to perform the otlice of a pollen bearer, great numbers of bliissniun must remain unfertilized but for the friendly otlices of the bees, w hich seldom skip a blossom as they pass from one to another In search of nectar."

ISSUES BULLETIN ON SOILjERTILITY "If In a matter of considerable In terest and Importance to know the demands which particular crops are making upon the soli. esjeclall.v when plans are being made an t in y are lu modern methods of farming to meet these demandrt y appropriate fertll Izatlon," nay b Prof. C. E. liradley of the Oregon Agricultural Collegechem Istry department. In a new bulletin on "The Soil of Oregon" (No. Ill') "The lossen of mineral foods uud nitrogen by leaching and the loss of nitrogen by direct oxidation are of course, additional demands which come to the cultivated soil," he con tluuen. He theu gives a table of fer tility of wheat, vetch, hay, alfalfa, timothy, potatoes, apples, fat cattle, milk, butter and fresh kale showing the composition anil market value. "The value of the plant f'iod In out' acre oi wheat equals $11,411, says Prof. Bradley. "In like manner f.'4 2.i worth of plant foods go Into .'tOO bushels of apples. The large amount of nitrogen and consequent high market value of plant food In alfalfa and vetch In offset by the storage of atmospheric nitrogen In the soil by these plants, so that the real nitrogen draft does not come on the soil. The mineral foods which these leguminous crops carry, how ever, are large and represent real losses when they are sold an hay from the farm. The values for kale are extreme and represent the real demands on an acre of soil by un av erage kalecrop, which, by experience, is known to be 'hard on the land.' The small amount of fertility enter ing Into dairy products and live stock explain the well known fact that these Industries do not deplete the soil " FIFTH LIST OF HOOD RIVER LIBRARY BOOKS These lists.
