 vent th^ support from coming in violent 

 contact with the bark of the tree. A large 

 pad of hay or straw, fixed so that it will 

 remain in place between the stake and

 the same purpose. R. R.

FALL TRANSPLANTING OF TREES. 



TTie recent heavy rains in many parts 

 of the country benefited nurserymen im- 

 mensely. The soil will now, where such 

 rains occurred, be in good condition for 

 the planting of evergreens, and if the 

 work of transplanting was deferred, it 

 should now be pushed steadily until ev- 

 ery one that will be benefited by moving 

 is set out. Although it is a distinct ad- 

 vantage to have as much soil adhere to 

 the roots of evergreens as possible while 

 moving them, it is not a necessity, es- 

 pecially in the case of small stock, but 

 if young trees are moved now without 

 soil adhering to the roots, and the soil 

 into which they are set is dry, it will be 

 absolutely necessary to water after they 

 are planted, in the event of no immediate 

 prospect of rain. 



Apart from the time gained by trans- 

 planting trees in the fall, it will be 

 found that the work can be carried on 

 much more expeditiously then than in 

 the spring, and that for various reasons. 

 In the spring most nurserymen are so 

 busily engaged in the shipping of stock 

 that the work of transplanting is very 

 apt to be more or less neglected. 



I do not think it is desirable to trans- 

 plant deciduous trees without balls of 

 earth adhering to the roots late in the 

 fall, particularly if the ground where 

 they are intended to be planted is not 

 well drained, but I think that such trees 

 succeed fully as well when moved during 

 the latter part of September and up to 

 the middle of October as when trans- 

 planted in spring. In moving deciduous 

 trees it is very important, at any time of 

 the year, that every root broken or in- 

 jured be cleanly cut with a sharp knife 

 or pruning shears, in order that, instead 

 of such roots decaying in consequence of 

 the injury, they will send out fresh roots, 

 which will immediately do service in 

 the sustaining and feeding of the tree. 

 Another very important point is to 

 spread the roots straight from the trunk

FORESTRY AT AMES. 



H. P. Baker, professor of forestry at 

 the Iowa State College, has resigned to 

 accept a similar position at the Pennsyl- 

 vania Agricultural College. He leaves at 

 once, in order to get his work in hand 

 for the fall semester, which opens at the 

 Pennsylvania institution the latter part 

 of September. 



Professor Baker was the first instructor 

 to take up forestry work at Ames and 

 has occupied the position of professor of 

 forestry since the department was estab- 

 lished, in 1904. His work has been unu- 

 sually successful. A number of his grad-

uates have passed the civil service ex- 

 amination for positions in the United 

 States forest service in competition with 

 the graduates of the Yale Forest School 

 rind other leading institutions. 



Professor Baker says he likes the spirit 

 of the west and greatly regrets to sever 

 his connections with the work at Ames, 

 but feels that the large forestry interests 

 of Pennsylvania offer a wider field for 

 labor. The new position also means an 

 increase in salary from $1,800 to $2,500 

 per year to start with and a liberal ap- 

 propriation for forestry investigations.
