and this is the most convenlen
time for fruit growers TO do the
work, it is the season when mos
pruning is done In the vineyard.
A pair Of pruning saears Is the
only toll needed for this work.
CuUs should be made at least al
inch beyond a bud. While the
treIlis Is much to be preferred,
owing to greater convenience III
picking and cultivation, and larger
yields on account OF more space
for bearing wood, grapes are being
grown with profit all over the
irrigated re gion Of the west with
out support Of any kind. Our
common varieties are SO muchin-
clined to slender vining habit OF
growth that it is not practicable to
train them on the stump system,
as are some of the foreign varieties,
but they can be made to assume
rather the bush form and where
trained in that manner it should
be the aim of the primer to cause
them to become as stocky and self
sustaining as possible. A -ood
trellis should have strong posts set
every eighteen or twenty feet in
the row, the first wire fourteen
inches from the ground and the
other twelve inches apart, the top
wire being at least six feet above
the ground. If the slope Of the
land will permit, run the trellis
north and south. The first season
the vine cannot be expected to
make much growth above ground
and no treIlis will be needed. AL.
low only one cane to grow, which
should branch at about the height
of the first wire, one arm going il
each direction. From these hori
zontai arms upright canes should
shoot the second season which
should be trained up to the wires
until the top Of the trellis is reach.
ed. From the spurs. that will
start out along these upright canes,
quite a crop Of fruit should be OBJ
tanned the third year and the
fourth year the vines should be in
full bearing and will present the
following appearance after prun-
ing: From the root to the first
wire is single stem about one
inch in diameter; here it separates,
two strong arms running in OPP
posite directions along the wire
until each meets the one from the
next vine; every six inches along
these, upright canes run up to the
top wire, along them are the fruit
spurs shortened to three buds, that
are to produce the crop. of fruit
OF course the upright canes that
are at the outer ends Of the hori-
Zontal arms are one year younger
than those nearer the center Of the
vine, and the fruit spurs as they
perform their function and shoot
forth anew supply at the same time
will SOON make large accumula-
ton of wood in the older part Of
the vine. AS none but the last
seasons growth Of wood is pro-
ductive of fruit it is evident that a
system Of renewal must be adopt
ed or we will soon have a huge
vine of old and useless wood cover
ing the trellis and drawing nourish-
ment from the root. About the
fifth season we commence this OPP
peration by removing the first up

MONDAYS Republican contains very
able article from Rev. o. E. Ostenson in
defense of tho game wardens who recent
ly killed the Indians in Routt county.
He is well acquainted with the people
and general situation over there and we
think that he is perfectly right in up
holding the game wardens, who merely
did their duty as officers Of the law.
There is entirely too much maudlin
sympathy wasted upon law breakers who
get into trouble and court death by their
acts and the sooner people take to up
holding brave officers who fearlessly and
carefully do their duty the better the
rights Of the individual will be protected.

JuDoE HAYr was defeated largely be-
cause he failed to receive tho support OF

refused to support him partly because

politicians but We see in this district
