EVERYDAY ORCHARD WORK

A man may be a good Woodchopper,
but that is no sign that he knows how
to prune trees.
ignorant man cause more damage to
the fruit crops of this land than all the
birds that are Matched.
Some people imagine that all that is
necessary to have good orchard is to
plant a variety of good trees and "let
'em rip" 1t generally takes years to
discover their mistake, but they finally
discover it.
W. c. Buell., New York state farm
err, has about 100 apple trees, which
previous to 1898 bore little or no fruit.
That year Mr.. Buell. woke up and be-
gan cultivating his orchard. In seven
years thereafter they yielded 1,450
barrels, an average of 20T barrels per
year. Does cultivating pay?
Fruit sells best when properly grad
ed. The best will bring better price
and the lower grades will generally
bring as good a price as the entire lot
would if mixed.
Don't wait another day to prune your
grapevines.
A good test of a mans Christianity
is to examine his apple barrel from top
to bottom.
For summer pruning Of trees the
best time is from the 18th of June to
the 10th of July, just when the sap is
running freely. When the tree is in
leaf you can tell better what to cut
out.

WINTER OATS A GOOD CROP

have received many inquiries con-
corning winter oats since the publ
cation of my little item on chat sub
ject.
Some inquire whether they are a
real winter variety of oats; others in
quire whether they would be likely to
ers have something else they want to
know about the winter oats
OF the winter oats Professor Hunt
has the following to say in his recent
book, Cereals of America: "There
are spring and winter (falD varieties
of oats.
'"The winter varieties are principally
grown south of the southern boundary
of Virginia, Kentucky, Missouri and
Kansas, or about 81 degrees north lat
itude, where they are the chief varie-
ties grown.
THE area of cultivation Of winter
oats is gradually extending northward
Where successfully grown they are to
be preferred to spring varieties. be-
cause of their more vigorous, early
growth in the spring and their earlier
ripening,
AS above stated, Professor Hunt
gives 81 degrees north latitude as the
northern boundary of the successful
growing of winter oats; however, he
says that the boundary is continually
pushing northward
We have been growing winter oats
in Nicholas and Fayette counties, West
Virginia, for about twenty-five years
and we are near the seth degree oil
north latitude and at an elevation OF
1900 to 1900 feet above sea level
While fall sowing usually does best
some farmers sow them in February
and early March and get better results
than they do from the spring varie.

what a struggle these same clerks, who
work in stores or offices, have to pay

Neither does he realize that a clerk

The majority of clerks are poorly

never rise any higher. Few people

HAVE COWS FRESH IN FALL
September Best Month for Heifer
to Drop First Calf to Get
Fullest Development.
BY PROFESSOR H. E. AIvoRp,

S"itou Statos department OF ABr1oultuIosss=55
II is a well-known fact that by far
the greater number of milk cows are
allowed to follow the most natural
course, and either by indifference or in
tention they come in in the spring.
The producer of milk for sale. II he has
an even trade, may want to have about
an equal number of fresh COWS In
every month of the year.
If the bull is kept up and service
controlled this can be regulated, as
a rule, although unpleasant irregulari-
ties In breeding will sometimes occur
and stubbornly resist correction, But
II the prime object is to produce the
greatest quantity of milk of the best
quality and at the greatest profit from
any given number of cows within
year evidence is overwhelming that
the cows should be managed so as to
calve in the autumn months.
For like reasons September Is the
best month in most parts of the coun-
try, for a heifer to drop her first calf
In order to best develop as a COW. and
this almost regardless OF the age of the
animal at first calving.
Calves born in the fall are easier
reared and make better cows than
/ those born in the spring or summer
It seems needless to rehearse the stock
arguments on this subject. based upon
the long experience of successful dairy
men, but brief reorganization may be
useful.
The COW or heifer calving In the
fall needs the most healthy and nutri-
tious pasturage just following the
strain while coming into full flow.
Just at this time when some falling
off is likely to occur the animal is
brought to the stable and receives good
| care; the winter feeding and the re-
turns from 1t may be depended upon
to exceed the midsummer results for
any like period.
At the stage OF milking and OF gestS-
ton, when another dropping off in the
milk yield may be- looked for, the frcah
4 pastures induce fresh flow, lengthen
4 the milking season and increase the
years total product.
December and January are good
4 months in which to control and SUI
pervise the service of the bull Mid
time for the COW to be dry and prepar-
!, ing to calve again,
!: With fall fresh cows the greatest
product and the richest comes at the
season when milk and butter are al
, ways comparatively high in price Ii
actual practice four fall fresh COWS
have been found equal to FIVE which
calved in the spring in twelve months
product, and at about four fifths the
cost.
