Flowing the Orchard.

That clean cultivation of orchards
that has been the rule in Colorado has
already been referred to in publications
from the Colorado Agricultural College.
But the system of culture has not gen.
orally included the use of the turning
plow. 1t was thought that if the sur
face was kept mellow and free from
weeds, all requirements had been met.
In fact, there seems to have been some
thing of n prejudice against the use of
the plow, as it was feared that the in
Jury to the tree roots would counteract
use of shallow cultivators tends to form
a hard pan and many orchards show
the effects. Roots need air, and lots
of it, in order to do their work effect.
lively. The root hairs are less abundant
and many are killed if the tree is COM
PEELED to live continuously in a hard.
compact soil. The effect on the tree is
much the same as though too much
water had been allowed to accumulate
about the roots. Some means should
be taken to loosen such soils, and this
can be done best with plow. particu-
larly if supplemented by some growing
crop or stable manure which is turned
under.
Peach growers in one of the hest sec.
tions of the state, up to about three
years ago, would scarcely allow plow
in the orchard; but since that time its
use has come to be nearly universal.
And we predict that it will not be long
until u system of green manuring will
also como into general use.
The time of year to use the plow is
now agitating the minds Of many. The
spring has been adopted in the East,
where for fifteen years great deal of
study has been devoted to the subject
of orchard culture. The orchard land
is broken up rs early as the weather
will permit. and clean culture is given
till the end of the growing season, when
q cover crop is sown. Convenient rains
usually start the crop into growth,
The Delta independent. [volume] (Delta, Colo.) 1886-19??, 1907-10-11

when it helps mature tree growth by
using surplus moisture and protects the
soil In various ways until the following
spring, when it is turned under to sup
ply vegetable matter and fertility to
the soil.
The practice of irrigation brings up
many problems which are unknown to
the eastern orchardists, consequently
their practices cannot always be adopted
here. We are now pretty well agreed
that the turning plow should be used,
but extended inquiries among orchard
lists show that in general they have had
better results by turning the land over
in the fall. The main reason advanced
for this preference is that if the land
is plowed in the spring, and particularly
il . green crop has been turned under,
it 10 nearly impossible to get water over
the ground without the most of it get
ting much too wet. The result is yellow
foliage and setback to the trees,
from which it takes them some time to
recover. This experience will probably
be found to be true of most soils.
We conclude, then, that the use of
the turning plow is very desirable, if
not essential, where clean cultivation is
given. and in the present state of our
knowledge the fall of the year. after
the leaves are off, is the best time for
its use. w. PADDOCK.

The School Law.

The Colorado School law states that
every parent. guardian or other person
having charge OF any child between the
ages of eight and sixteen years, shall
send such child to school for the
entire school year during which the
schools are in session in such district.
Any child over fourteen years of age
and under sixteen years of age whom
the parents shall keep out of school to
work because of needy circumstances
must make application to the superin-
tendent of city schools and obtain a
written permit for absence from school.
Otherwise the child and his parents are
liable to arrest. fines and ether penalties
of the law.
Any person. company or corporation
employing a child under the age of
fourteen years shall be fined not less
than $25 nor more than 500.
II parents are not able to clothe their
children properly, it shall be the duty of
the board of education to furnish the
necessary clothing and pay for same
out Of school funds of such district.
TRUANCY.
A few of our boys are inclined to
play truant. Realizing the evils that
result from truarcy the Board of Edu-
cation, the city superintendent and all
of the teachers are determined to break
it up.
The Hoard has appointed Mr.. H.
Hammond truant officer. 1t will be his
business to look after all cases reported
TO him, and all children he sees out of
school during school hours when not
satisfied that there is a good reason for
their absence from school.
Sec IS of the revised school law
reads ITO aid in the enforcement of
this act" (referring to the Compulsory
attendance law "the board of school
directors in districts of the first and
second class shall have power, and it
shall be their duty, to appoint one or
more truant officers whose compensa-
ton shall be fixed by the Board appoint
ing HIM. The truant officer shall be
vested with police powers, and shall
have authority to enter workshops,
factories. stores and other places where
children may be employed. and in the
way Of investigation or otherwise, to
enforce this act" etc.
Truancy soon leads to moral degen-
eracy The boy who habitually plays
truant becomes unreliable in every way.
With scarcely an exception boys who
are in the habit of playing truant swear,
lie, smoke and become public nuisance.
1t is our hope that each citizen will
assis, those in authority by their moral
support and in such ways that may
come to hand in keeping our boys in
the schools and Strengthening the senti-
ment against all evil tendencies.
Very respectfully,
PHILIP NJ. CoNpIT,
City Superintendent of Schools.

October.

The following paragraphs have
been compiled and are going the
rounds credited to October:
''The autumn nights inspiriting
shall grow a little longer, and the
breath of fall on cider sweet
shall grow little stronger. The
husbandman shall sell his hogs
and think to prosper on it, but
the good housewife will take the
dough and buy a winter bonnet.
~
The hunting season will keep
the rabbit on the wing and the
quail on the jump. The crack
shot from town will range into
the country with his burr-proof
gun and his hammerless cord
uroys. He will flush a bird and
almost hit a COW, and then buy
his game from a native who
sports a bored out army musket.
-
The baseball fan will lose his
job, the highball fiend is broke,
the mothball crank is now abroad
spreading odors thick as smoke.
The ice cream soda has fixed out,
the ice man slacks his pace, the
small boys save their nickles now
to buy comic face. For hallow-
cen with pumpkins, spooks and
pranks, and if the hoodlums pass
us up we surely may give thanks.
Be glad, be glad, the worst is
past.
County fairs will be in full
blast. The heavy fragrance of
roasted peanuts will decoy the
cautious nickle from the pants
pocket of the swain. The toy
balloon will drag the small boy
around the grounds. The man
with the long awning on his cap
will sit on the tail of the winged
footed trotter and slap her around
the track with a barrel stave.
The man in red underwear will
rise in a balloon hanging by his
toe-nails, and the family that
Roosevelt is enthusiastic about
will weave through the crowd
tied together on long clothes
line.
The football rooter, full of root.
will go off on his autumn toot;
the player with the college hair,
the while the horns and trumpets
blare, will butt around till he is
thrown and someone breaks his
collar bone. The rusty sound of
rah-rah-rahs will urge the fell
and bloody cause; the girls in
mass and colors come, will sing
and scream and swallow gum.
The giant fullback, fierce and
stout, will pick little fellow out,
kick in his Stats and change his
face, and maui him up and down
the place, and when the foe shall
cease to breath, will proudly
claim the victors' wreathe."
