Must Prunes Be Dippsd9


Pomona Progress: A rancher living
near Lordsburg, who is making a sue.
cess of fruit growing, says that the idea
that prunes must be dipped in lye and
other solutions in the process of drying
ia all delusion. So long as people
think prunes are better treated in that
way and the trade demands it they will
have to be dipped, but he has cured
them for his own use several years with
out dipping and will not have them any
other way. He dries them as soon as
they come from the tree. and when
cured, before packing, dips them into
hot salt water to kill any insect egg that
may possibly be deposited on the fruit.
Treated in this way the fruit is
6rner and looks brighter and does
not cook to pieces as it does
when it has been dipped in the lye, etc.
He says further that it is not fact in
his experience that the skin of the prune
is tougher when cured in this way than
it is when treated by the common
method. He has had comparative tests
made by several persons and the un-
dipped fruit has been pronounced supe-
rior on every occasion. 1t would be q
great saving of labor il prunes could be
cured without dipping in several solu-
tions and drying several times. as is the
present custom. This subject is being
agitsted by the fruit growers of Other
sections, also, and something is likely tt
come of it before many seasons.

A Sure Cure for Roup.

A subscriber whose old chickens have
q white substance around the entrance
to the windpipe and become wheezy,
while the young pullets are affected with
swollen eyes, asks for cure.
From the syetoms described, it is i'm
possible to say whether or not it is a
case of true roup. Roup proper is a
contagious disease and appears to be IL
duced by cold, damp, dark and filthy
quarters. Even drafts of cold air de-
scending on the fowls while at roost
seem to bring on the malady. But 80
similar are the symptoms of roup and
several throat and nasal troubles caused
by the Eeme bad hygienic surroundings
mentioned, that it ia difficult to tell the
true nature of the disease. For this
reason we can place but little reliance
on most of the cases where it is claimed
that roup has been cured.
The symptoms of true roup are dull
ness and general languor, rutfled feath.
ere, loss OF appetite and rapid, wheezy
breathing. There is watery discharge
from the nostrils, which later become
thick and foul-smelling. When the nos
trils become closed, the discharge ex
udes from the eyes, thus causing blind
ness and the head to swell. In severe
cases, sores form under the thick, vel
lowish, cheesy matter in the throat ant
on the face. / have consulted with DIR
James Law as to the best treatment fol
roupy fowls. He recommends as fol
lows: Spray and swab the throat
mouth and nostrils thoroughly with {
solution of one ounce hyposulphite o
soda to one quart of water. The hous,
should be thoroughly disinfected to xii
all germs of the disease which may b,
lodged about the walls and floor. To d.
this, spray with solution OF chloride
OF lime four ounces to four quarts O
water. Provide the fowls with warm
dry, sunny quarters, and feed warm
nutritious food in good variety, alwayl
keeping pure water and grit accessible

To Prevent Trees From Splitting.
Farm and Fireside: 1t seems to be
the nature OF some varieties Of apple
tree to grow in crotches, or forks. With
some varieties this makes but little diff
ference, as the forks are solid and never
split, but with Others, such as the Bel
mont Golden Gate), the fork is never
solid, and when loaded with fruit is apt
to split, and often fine, large trees are
ruined. This can be avoided in differ
ent ways, but the best way is to take q
sprout that is growing on one branch OF
the tree and graft the upper end OF it
into the opposite branch. If this is done
when the tree is small the sprout will
grow with the tree and make a strong
brace, and the larger the tree grows the
stronger will become the brace.

ed Mr.. Ferguson, ''prefer to

turkeys that had to swim from the place
they were Matched in. The old hen
never moves after the chicks are Matched
for four days, and there is not particle

their habits, and what say is correct.
North America is the natural home OF
the turkey. II left to themselves, the

that after the beginning of July the
gobbler can't gobble any more until he

When Horses should Drink.

When Horses Should Drink.
New York Tribune: Starting for q
drive with an acquaintance, noticed
that his spirited young horse was so
anxious to 60 as to be scarcely manage
able. Before we had gone quarter OF
a mile he stopped at water.trough and
allowed the animal to drink unreason-
ably. At once all the spirit vanished /;
he became a tame driver, and for miles
had to be urged with whip, being ss
uncomfortable as he appeared and more
30 than slight thirst would have made
him. This folly have often seen COM
mitted by men at work in the field.
Too much water Ito say nothing OF
other drinks) would unfit them for
activity during an hour or two because
OF depressing fullness. On long over
land carriage drive with my wife, she
thought it hard not to let the horse
drink largely every mile or two,
but at the end OF the first day
she changed her opinion. Sweat
ing profusely he could scarcely
be urged out of a walk. Follow
ing days. with reasonable drink and
light hay rations except at night, he
proved himself different horse. Drivers
ought to remember that horse cannot
derive nourishment from food or drink
while in motion, and that these things
only cause misery after the momentary
qualification Of appetite. The strength
must be accumulated or fat laid on while
at rest, and it is economical otboth to
give the horse but little food and only q
swallow or two of water frequently while
performing his duty. Arabs of the des-
ert, the worlds best horsemen, never
feed except at night. Their beasts are
universally noted for soundness of wind
and limb, fieetness and good disposition.
This is not considered cruelty, but kind
ness, aud their horses are treated with
extreme humanity in every other wav.
Use reason with the horse, both on the
road and in the stable. While he is
idle don't let him eat more than two
hours at mealtime. Horses that eat all
the while soon become diseased or USE
