Hot Fatal

Round Hay
Bales Lead
To Argument
Farmers r hnvlna quite
bit to y for and gainst binditiR
hay Into round ball. Mum artiu
ment aitatnt seems to be the
trouble in ucknn. and nome pre
paration Is definitely required to
facilitate this.
Argument tor tne ivund bales
Include the word that dmrymfn are
paying more tor round than square
bales; agriculture college com
mend the round for retaining more
of the allalfa leaves vhich contain
vitamuu; one man on a tractor
can handle the baling for the en
tire crop alone uh the round ba
ler. Weeds and &agebruAh In the fteld
can be handled with the round ba
ler right m with the hay. suck
ing arrangements should be made
first, then neat windows left for
the baler to scoop the hay troru.
A field where the round baler has
been used looks like a vacuum
cleaner hu been run over it. by
the lack or debris left.
Round bales are tied with heavy
twine In three places by the baler
which scoops the loo hay off the
ground as it is pulled by a trac
tor, driven by one man. It winds
the hay Ug h Uy in a "bobbin "
shape, ties u and ejects It. Twine
la less expensive than baling wire.
Round bales can be made any
slse and weight by adjusting the
machine. A popular size Is 18-33
inches in diameter, three feet long
and 1-5 pounds in weight.
Geary brothers started using the
roto-baJer year and liked It so
well they got another this year.
The Geary ranch ' la the largest
small seed producer In the world
and alter the seed Is cured and
thrashed the roto-baler la set up
in a stationary position next the
thrasher and operated with a pow ,
er unit, especially attached for this
purpose.

Wild Plums
Easy To Grow
Wild plums can be grown on the
home ranch with little trouble
farmers say, and if you are will
ing to wait a little for fruit you
dont even need to graft on peach
trunks!
Friends of the Wlllard Duncan.
Henley ranchers, had dumped wild
plum pita when they were canning
last year and covered them with
earth and mulch so as not to at
tract flies. This year a fine crop
of seedlings sprang up. The Dun
cans took a share of them and
planted a row about M yards long
on their ranch near Btukel moun
tain. The little trees art flourishing
and will be thinned later. There
are some older wild plum trees
which are already bearing In the
nest field so there should be no
trouble with pollination from varied
species. The new plants are in a
fenced area so danger of wild ani
mals Is cut down alihough the wild
foothills are Just across the road
