Intensive Dairvinr.

Intensive dairying is that kind OF
dafrying that tries to make the great
est use of the farm and farm equip
ment. In the United States we have
formed the opinion that man cannot
AFFORD to dc dairying on land that is
worth more than 500 an acre. There
must be soIne fault with this conclu-
sion. The European dairymen are
working upon land worth $500 to $500
an acre. They are importing feed
from the United States, especially
bran and cotton seed, for the feeding
of their cows. Then they are sending
their butter 20 England to enter into
competition with American-made but
ter. We cab only conclude that these
European dsirymen are working upon
a more intensive plan than the Amer
lean dairymen. We know that many
of them have cows of far higher quail
ity than have the farmers of this
country. Certainly an American farm
er trying to produce butter at a profit
from land worth $500 an acre will be
compelled to use only the very best
cows. II he is to realize a profit.

PRUNING NEWLY SET TREES
Advice Of Prof. E. p. Sandstein Given
Before Wisconsin Horticul-
tural Society.

The first thing to do il to decid,
upon a shape or ideal the grower
wishes to follow. If open or followed
conferred trees are wanted, the leading
shoot should be cut out entirely and
the strong secondary branches pruned
back to about four to six inches, de-
pending upon their size. From foul
to five strong secondary branches
should be left and these should be 10.
Gated little above each other and be
distributed around the trunk.
If, on the contrary, we wish to main.

the leader from twothirds to three
quarters Of the past seasons growth
and the secondary shoots proportion.
ately. 1t is seldom advisable to pruns
back to the old wood when planting,
excepting peaches and apricots. These
may be cut back very severely with
out danger.
The pruning of the trees a second
year after planting is an important
operation. IL the pruning has been
lone carefully the first year, It will
be much less the second, consisting
mostly In the removal of shoots which
cross or interfere with other shoots
or shortening In some of the branches,
which are growing with undue rapid
ty so rs to give the weaker ones a
chance to develop. The subsequent
pruning of the trees should be along
the sane line as indicated. No severe
pruning, as rule. is necessary, for II
the trees have once attained a proper
form, and yearly judicious pruning
done. there is little occasion for So.
we're cutting.
The best time to do general prua-
ing is from February Is to April 1.
WOUNDS made at this time will heal
very feadily and there Is little de-
vitalizing effect on the trees. Il
should be remembered that pruning
at this time acts as a stimuant and
tends to encourage greater wood
growth Hence winter and spring
pruning should be practiced ON young
trees during their formative period
and on old, run down trees, which
have become weakened and unproduc.
tive from the lack Of young wood.
All heavy pruning should be done at
this time. as there is AGs danger Of
the wound becoming diseased, and be.
sides the healing process Is most rapid
in the early spring.
AS a rule, heavy wood growth ia
not conducive to fruitfulness. while
slow wood growth encourages fruit
Light summer pruning is
employed to check the wood growth
and induce the formation of fruit
buds. In order that summer pruning
may be effective, 1t should be done |
rom June Is to July Is In our eli. |
nate. The young shoots will have
crown to the length of eight to twelve
inches and should be pinched back
wo to four inches. Now and then
leading shoot should be left to
row. The buds below the pinched
'ortion will, as rule, begin to swell
