poultryman is prone to regard the cul- ture of fruits too laporious and expen- sive to combine with poultry farming; and while this may be true in very many instances there are manysother persons who could we'll afford to plant an orchard, but do not because of the belief that the two could not be prof. tably put on the same ground. Others think they don't know enough about poultry culture to dabble with hens, Pand bv the same token many such know as little of horticulture as they do of poultry culture.
 Readers of the Cultivator have been told time and again of the advantages that each one is to be to the other. They have thought over the matter and concluded to attend strictly to one thing and become expert in that one thing is better than to try to work two things. But little investigation along this line will surely convince the most skeptical that with but little more expense poultry could be put into the orchards at double income to be returned from the same soil.- California Cultivator.

Horticulture and Hens

The hen returns more money to the people of the United States than do all the fruits compined-than does the horticulturist. Notwithstanding this there are perhaps ten dollars expended in the culture and marketing of fruits where there is one invested in poultry culture and marketing poultry pro- ducts. Still, they ought to be culti- vated together. The orchard is a benefit to the hen and the hen is a great benefit to the orchard. And withal they can occupy the same space of ground, or as much of the orchard as may be needed for the fowls. And yet we see hundreds and hundreds of orchards without the fowls, and as many fowl plants without the orchard.
 It would seem hardly necessary to enumerate the different ways in which each benefits the other, as they are quite obvious to any and all discerning minds. As1 have only called atten- tion to the fact that the horticulturist is prone to look upon poultry in the orchard as supplement to the main edition, whereas it should constitute as much of the "main cheese" as does the orchard.

A special to the Denver News from Meeker, Col, says the wounding of State Game Commissioner Harris has greatly excited the settlers in the vicinity of Rangely where the shooting occurred.
 A special messenger rode into Meeker from that place Thursday and reported chat about four hundred Utes have been in the vicinity of Rangely fol some days slaughtering!game. He says that since the fight with Harris the bucks have sent their squaws and papooses back to the reservation, which is taken to mean that they in- tend to fight and hold their ground. Many of the settlers feeling certain that therel will be trouble, have sent their families to Meeker. The courier brought orders to all the Meeker stores to send all the guns and ammunition they have in stock. The cowboys at Meeker are mobolizing to go to the scene of trouble if necessary.
 It is believed that one of the Indians was killed by Harris in the fight Mon day night.

A Tunnel Caved In

San Rafael-The large tunnel half a mile south of Females caved in on a work train Thursday and one of the worst railroad accidents of the county occurred. One of the men is dead. another is dying, four others sustained injuries the full extent of which tie doctors are at present unable to deter mine. The train started north in charge of Engineer Ritchie. It was made up of the heavy steam shovel car and flat car following. In going through the tunnel the heavy steel arm of the steam shovel caught in the roof of the tunnel and before the train could stop, over forty heavy timbers were torn out and thrown back upon the fiat car, upon which six of the shovel crew were sitting. As soon as the timbering gave way, earth and rocks commenced falling from the roof, and soon the tunnel way caved in for a distance of over eighty feet.
 The scene was one of terror. In the darkness the noise of the falling earth and the cries of the dying and injured added to the confusion of the moment. Word was immediately sent to To- males and help secured. A telegram to Sausalito brought perintendent F. H. Shoemaker and wrecking train and crew to the scene. Before their arrival, however, many of the injured had been removed and taken to town,

Pruning Apricots

The time of pruning apricots depends upon the age of the tree and the local climate. In the cooler parts of the State, where growth is moderate. or even in the hotter parts of the state, if.moisture is scant ard growth re- duced by ithis lack, young apricots should be pruned after the leaves have fallen, for this process promotes wood growth. Where heat and moisture are ample and growth riotous. overerowth can be checked and good form quickly secured by summer pruning, followed by thinning out of shoots after the leaves fall, so that the tree may not become too dense or bushy. In your district we should rely upon winter pruning of young trees. Bearing april cot trees everywhere can be best prun- ed just after the fruit is gathered. This checks excessive wood growth. which is not desirable in bearing tree, and it promotes bearing, which, with some varieties, is very desirable. But pruning just after fruit gathering is most desirable in the state where growth is greatest, and in the Coast region some growers rely upon winter pruning for both young and bearing trees. Recently, however, even near the coast, summer pruning of bearing trees has become wide practice, and we believe it the best course. Fall pruning of apricots after the leaves be- gin to droop is perfectly admissible. It IS :; hastenlng of winter pruning, which does not injure the tree and is desirable because the days are longer, the ground dry and the work can be done at less cost. Spring pruning of trees which have been neglected through the winter is better than to allow the trees to overbear and pro- duce mass Of small fruit. At this time of the year much hand. d.trimming can be avoided by pruning out surplus shoots and by shortening those which are setting too much for their strength. Thus it appears that you can prune the bearing apricot at almost any time of the .year-it submits very gracefully to the maxim of some old horticulturists that "the time to prune is when your knife is sharp.

 Did you ever stop to think that if you should weed out the unprofitable hens you would reduce your focks one- half and make more money than is now being realized? asks Main Farmer. This is fact and the load of dead wood now being carried in our poultry yards and pens is something appa Hing. What is needed is a thorough weeding out. Some hens produce close to 250 eggs yearly, others but 25, and the difference in the cost of feed is but trihing. Kill off the loafers. Study the broods and focks. Know indi- viduals. Here is the only solution of the difficulty. The hen business does not receive its share of intelligent attention.
