Systems of Pruning.

The systems of pruning adapted to
vineyards in California may be divided

the length of the spurs and fruiting
canes.

snort stems. Cd With spurs of two
OF three eyes only (short pruning: (2l
with spurs Of one or two eyes and
long fruit spurs Of four to six ewes

branch or continuation Of the trunk

spurs of one or two eyes and fruit spurs

The Quarantine BiII.

The fruit tree qarantine bill intro.
duced by Representative Barlow of
Los Angeles has had very smooth sail
ing until it was recently held up by
the requests and representations of a
lot of florists from New York and New
Jersey. The pith of the bill provides
for the inspection, under the direction
OF the Secretary of Agriculture, of
fruit trees that are sold and shipped
from one State to another. The ad-
mirable idea is to prevent the spread
of trees which are diseased or in apy
way unhealthy. The bill secured a
hearing before the House Committee of
Agriculture the day it was introduced.
Representatives Of all the horticultural
societies in the country appeared in its
advocacy. The committee at once re.
cognized its merits and were readily
inclined to report il favorably.
The bill was received with equal
favor by the Agricultural Committee.
The sa me delegations that had advo.
Gated it before the House appeared be.
fore the Senate Committee in similar
cause. They even went so far as to
pass a resolution asking that the bill
be not amended in any way whatso.
ever, but be passed just as Representa-.
tive Barlow had drawn it.
The horticultural Board of Los An.
geles has highly endorsed the bill BY
resolution and has written letters to
Washington begging that it be passed.
The Horticultural Commissioners of
Massachusetts,, South Carolina, New
York and other States have written
Representative Barlow strong letters
In its commentator. He has received
scores OF letters of similar tenor from
prominent fruit men all over the
country.
Florist people from New York and
New Jersey. who opposed this bill be.

ness, have only succeeded in delaying
Its progress. 1t will come MP again in
few days before the committees OF
both houses of Congress and the
finances are that 1t will be favorably
reported.

There is NJ intention to recall a single
word of praise said OF the Easter costumes.
They are just as pretty as they can be, and
the woman who could not find something
TO please her among them is really too
particular for this world. It is just a

and if you know some milliner, some
swell one, we'll enough to get in behind
the scenes your breath will be fairly takeu
away by what is shown you. Probably
you will not have money enough to in
dulge in the beautiful creations you see
but then you know there is always the
satisfaction OF realizing that the less ex-
pensive gowns are nothing in the world
but com binations OF ideas gained from
effect on bank account or g lonely purse.
Skirts are not going to be so full. Not
that there is going to be an approach to
that abomination known as the ''pull-
back" but the volumlnous has been re-
tired and the gowns will not con tain yards

of ones back. Sleeves, too, have really
diminished, and only a comparative full
ness is retained at the shoulder, modifi-

than last season, and are generally quite
fiat in front. They have wide tabliers and
gored back breadths mounted in two or
three hollow plaits.
