Wacklnstn ltt Collet a, Pullman. Pullman, "April 25 This week the Washington Stats Collegs experiment station received the following inquiry from W. L. B., who resides ia Ssattls: "I wish some practical suggestions from you rslativs to the best grasses or grains to sow en 'upland' in Kitsap County, on sandy loam, which dries out too early in dry seasons to produce most crops. After having been cleared off, this land was allowed to grow up with young fir and ferns. Sowing rye in the fall, and plowing ths rys under in the spring to plant potatoes has beea rec ommended to me, but o far as I know little experimenting has been done in Kitsap County on upland soil. Thers are beds of muck near the land. Would it be advisable to pile and dry this muck and later use it as a dressing for straw berry plants, small fruits, aid in start ing apple trees I" Professor Elliott replied: "I believe that the best grass for ths region you menion is orchard grass, although I have found Italian rye grass doing quite well. Ths land is much benefited by the application of land plaster, or gyp sum. I doubt very much if you could use muck as a fertiliser, unless it was worked over quite thoroughly before using. Most muck soils' are in a con dition that we call inert; that is, they are dead so far as practical crop-growing is concerned, and need first to be acted upon by the weather and sunshine and bacteria, which are efficient in re deeming land. Much of the land in Kitsap County, as well as swamp lands, are in this eonditioa. Tou will find the application of barnyard manure very beneficial also, but l believe the best way is to treat the land with lime and land plaster; then follow with clover and such ether sreps as may be de sired." .. G. T., residing near Cevs, Wash., writes: "Can you give me any infor mation as to whether chioken manure is too strong, and will thus burn and in jure strawberry plants, if put directly on the crown of the plantf In this re gion Very little livestock is kept, se that manure for fertilizing purposes is rather scarce. ''Another point I wish to bring up is the care of a .eow before calving, where milk fever is suspected. I lost one . . ... m. m i good animal rrom miiK lever last iaii, and do not wish to take any more ,v,n.., i4 r hain jt n enance, 11 1 cftn ne,P The Station replied : "In using chicksn .- . f;i- ;t. manure as a fertilizer it is better to apply it in liquid form. This form of .t ;i; itrnTn " T Y V "rf content, and also contains a consider able quantity of potash.1 Jrut the ma- nure.in a barrel or trough, then throw water on it, later applying the liquid to the ground about the plants. Do not touch the plants with the liquid. This would give you better results than if used in the dry form, "As a preventive of. milk fever, we advise a reduction in the amount of grain feed, and an increase in food of a succulentnature. Boots, grasses, or silage would all be good, but too much train food might induce milk fever You had better make a study of the means of checking milk fever by the in jection of oxygen with a small syringe." "Dodder is destroying my elover," writes J. O. C, from Bochester. "Ho may I check itt" Professor Elliott replied: "Dodder is usually .planted with clover, and after becoming established in the sou, las tens its tendrils to the clover, or other plants which may be growing. Finally it !oses its attachment to the plant, and becomes- a true, parasitic plant. It aps the life of the 'host plant' upon which it lives, and if it becomes very strong in its growth, will eventually destroy the .host. To control it, cut where it gets its first start. Smother ing by heavy applications of straw, or nanure, is a fairly successful method, but cutting it off only makes it grow more rapidly. It is probable that a eutting before the application of the mulch would be advantageous." Milo M. Hastings, physiological chemist of Christian's School of Ap plied Food Chemistry, of New York City, writes as follows: "I am collaborating with Professor Suzuki, of the Agriculture Department of Japan, with the view of furthering the introduction of the soy bean into this country. I wish to obtain the most reliable aui latest data as to the 'results thus far obtained in soy beaa culture in the States.

Our experiments have been tried only on the plot scale, hence we have no data regarding the cost of production. "4. We have used these beans as forage, and also have made an effort to ute them for grain feed for swine, with only moderate success; and (5) I do not think any experiments have been made looking to their use at food for the human race." " . WHT AILS THE MILKf Also ft Sure Test for Tuberculosis In ths Cow. By Dr. K. W. Stoudar, Aaalstant Proseior f Sur- g-erp. Washing-ton Agricultural Collega. "Will you tell me what is the matter with milk when it turns thick and slimy, resembling a mixture of hot water and starch," writes A. from Chelan Falls. "Whenever my eow misses being milked, her milk for sev eral days thereafter has this appear ance. It tastes' all right, but to me it seems queer that milk should act this way. Also, tell me how to find out if an animal has tuberculosis." Dr. K. W. Stouder, assistant pro fessor of surgery, replied: "The coagu lation of the milk you refer to is no doubt due to a Blight inflammation of the udder, due to the retention of the milk too long, coupled with some bac teriological change in the milk, the lat ter possibly being due to an infection passing through the milk duct of the teat. The milk might, or might not, be wholesome, depending upon the organ ism causing the coagulation. Senti ment, however, would revert against the use of such milk. "In order to test an animal for tu berculosis, we use a biological product, or taxine, known as tuberculin. This must be injected by an experienced op erator, hypodermically, and a careful record kept of the temperature for sev eral hours botl before and after the in jection. The (est is very reliable, but in order to perform it, a person must have had specific instruction, as well as KOREA WAKINQ UP. Begins to Realize the Importance of Maintaining; Forest Area. Korea, ths Hermet Kingdom, is wak ing up to the necessity of protecting its remaining forests and replanting de nuded tracts on important watersheds. Japan is furnishing the inspiration and part of the money whieh will produce the change from the old order of things to the new. A school for training Korean foresters has already been put in operation. The two governments drew up a to operative agreement last spring and outlined a plan for the wise use of tho forests in the Yalu and Tumen Valleys, and as a result a national forest policy for Korea' has been developed. The new Korean forest laws are similar to those of Japan, according to United States Consul-General Thomas Sam' mons, of Ssoul. Although Korean forests have been exploited and neglected, and the eoun try has suffered severely from drouth, floods and erosion, the denudation is less serious than in neighboring prov incea of China. One of the first meas ures to be taken up will be the preser vation of such wooded tracts as yet re main. In order to do this, the govern' ment has taken all forests under its care, whether they are publicly or prl vately owned.. The owners will not be deprived of their property without com pensation, but the government will reg ulate the cutting of timber, and in cer tain cases may prohibit all cutting on tracts which ought to remain timbered "to prevent floods, drouths, landslides, and to preserve unimpaired the scenic attractiveness of places of public re sort." All owners of timberland and all leaseholders are required to report to the government their holdings in or der that the property may be listed and eared for. Failure to report Within s year subjects the forest to forfeiture. The forested area of Korea is about 2,500,000 acres, which is only one-tenth of the land on which forests ought to be growing. Extensive timbered traets remain ia the northern part of the coun try on the waters of the Yalu and Tu men Rivers, and lumber operations are carried on in the mountain districts. But in the agricultural sections of ths country wood is very scarce, and the fuel problem is serious. Coal and other mines have been opened by Americans, and one of the most pressing needs is timber for use in and about the mines. In that country, as elsewhere, large quantities of timber are necessary in developing mining property, and it is noteworthy that a country as backward industrially as Korea can put into prac tice the principle that the only sure way of getting timber is to grow it.
