Restoring an Orchard.

In an endeaVOr to furnish an object
lesson, Ernest Walker of the Arkansas
experiment station took charge OF
neglected apple orchard and soon
brought it around all right. He made
I'D his mind that the trees needed the
knife and started in on his surgical OPP
erations. The early fall pruning was
only moderate, as heavy pruning Woulu
have tended to cause swelling OF the
buds, or even a late growth. The re-
moval of large branches was avoided
wherever possible; yet if a limb was
weak or circumstances made 1t deSlra-
BILE to remove it, it was promptly tax
en- out. When the top branches were
weak or the head thin, or the tree grow
ing lop-sided, topping was done. Care
was observed always to make the cut
in this case Just above a good side
branch-a very important matter, as
this avoids the danger of the dying
back, frequently deemed an inevitable
consequence of topping in trees. Where
much twiginess was noted considerable
thinning out was done. On the south
and southwest side of the trees, how
ever, less pruning was done, as shade
in that, as in this, country is desirable,
and so much thinning is not necessary.
The spraying was looked after assidu-
ously and the invalided orchard was
soon doing business again.

Chickens that are poor and not be

best egg producers. To have the best
results with a quick spring growth
necessary for the establishment of size
