WHEN AND HOW TO PRUNE,
In the summer Months-With Short

In the summer Months-With short
stnb nBd PerpeDdIcuiar Cut.
All persons familiar with birches
and naples know that If any limbs are
taken from them In the late winter OF
spring time the stubs will bleed freely
for number of weeks. and If such
limbs are large ones they seldom heal
over before decay has commenced in
them Apple and pear trees win bleed
more. or less when pruned at the same
seasons of the year, and for that reason
no pruning when large limbs are to be
taken of should be done at that time of
the year
When pruning Is done during the
three midsummer months, the stubs
commence TO heal over quite soon. and
they can be painted within n few days
after pruning II the weather Is warm
and dry, which cannot be done and
have the paint hold If the pruning Is
done before the bleeding has ceased to
flow. During the summer months the
sap Is thickenng for the making of
new wood and Is largely near the bark
and not in the older wood of the trees.

that fact ls Of great Importance when
the life and health of the trees are tax

Now. how should tree be prnnedr Z
Should the stubs pe left long or short
or with as little wood as the circum-
stances will permit? Any person who
has t9ken much notice of how others
have pruued as well as his own work
has noticed that the longer the stubs
are left the longer they are In healing
over. and In many cnses they never
heal over, but dry up or decay. which
in many cases Is the beginning Of the
| decay and death Of the tree.
One other error in pruning IL often
made in not saving the limbs of as
nearly as possible perpendicular with

| limbs from which they are taken. By
taking on the limbs perpendicularly

The Forcing Method and the Rntionn
UEed-GTound Oats Preferred

The Forcing Method nnd the Rntions
Used-Ground Oats Preferred.
Mr.. f. Cobb, an English writer on
poultry subjects, gives the following
rules observed in the large fattening
establishments in England:
When the purchased birds arrive,
they are placed by themselves IN coops
separate from those being forced. They
are called feeders"
After being cooped the feeders are
allowed 10 food for ~ hours.
After this short fast they are fed
from Y shaped troughs which are sus
pended In front OF their coops three
times per day all they can eat of a thin
mash composed of finely ground oats
mixed with half water and half milk
During the second week the water is
gradually replaced by milk.
AT end Of second week II little fat is
melted In the hot milk and mixed in the
food
At end of second week, perhaps a
short time before, the birds do not eat
as rapidly as they did, and the cram
mer' or forcing machine. is called into
requlsition
The ration as used In the "crammer"
is ground oats and skinmilk. sweet or
sour. the latter preferred. TO which is
added fat uallow In most cases. in pro
portion of n tablespoonful to each bird.
The mixture as used In the cram
mer' is OF the consistency of Cruel or
thin ponldge.S@
The same authority also says that
the feeders" should be kept going (by
hand feeding) us long as they continue
to put on weight. A bird should never
be placed on the "crammer" so long as
1t eats heartily. Experience has shown
that after ten days or II fortnight most
birds will not take enough food volun
turily TO make weight. 1t Is then that
the forcing machine Is brought into
requisiton.
English fatteners prefer finely ground
oats to any other Kind of ground grain
Ground barley has been found too heat.
ing. Cornmeal puts ON yellow fat and
tends to give tinge of that color to
the English buyer In the United
