SUMMER PRUNING.

The writer now and then receives
inquiries as to what course TO follow
with fruit trees which put out crop
of leaves each spring, but set no
fruit buds and thus give no return in
way of fruit. 1t is quite likely that
such trees are suffering from too much
kindness-from too rich a soil or too
much fertilizer scattered on the ground.
For such trees summer pruning is
recommended, and this may be done
from now up to the 10th of August
This should consist in cutting back
somewhat recent growth and taking
out a number of limbs where the head
seems too thick. The philosophy of the
summer pruning seems to be that, done
late in the growing season as 1t is, the
surplus vitality furnished the fewer
branches remaining. instead of being
consumed In the further growth Of
twigs and leaves, Is used In the forma-
ton of fruit buds for the succeeding
season. The average tree will doubt
less stand this much pruning IN any
event. while the owner can determine
whether the method is effective In pro-
ducing the desired result.

AUTOMOBILES.

The automobile question which uneX-
pectedly and rapidly has became promi-
nent throughout the world within few
years is still unsettled, and source
of many accidents, and much i'll feeling
wherever they are used.
In nearly every civilized country, so
far as permitted, they have pre-empted
the peoples highways, with the same
result in every case, that they have
killed many persons, injured many, and
largely destroyed one of the greatest
sources of health and pleasure which
mankind is heir to, the safe use of their
highways to visit among themselves,
or to travel among natures beautiful
scenes.
AS Mayor Gaynor, recently so bru-
tally shot, in answer to a very eXtens-
i've protest by the automobilists of the
country against his exclusion of auto
mobiles from one of the Brooklyn parks,
said:
"You automobilists think you own
the world, but you don't. | am going
to give the horses chance" And this
he did, and the same has been done
quite extensively at different localities
over the country.
The automobile in some form has
doubtless come to stay, but we believe
it will be to stay upon its own roads
wherever that is possible, and where il
is necessary for them to use roads that
necessarily also are used by other
vehicles, it will be under such regula.
tons as will insure so far as possible
the safety of all.

crack team from South Hadley Falls,
Mass, and the Washington company of
Middlebury. The contest was won by
the Fountains, which threw a stream
of POP feet and 10 inches.
The Middebury lads did their best to
equal it but on the second try their ma
chine, which was somewhat antiquated
broke down just as they had accom-
plished stream of ia feet, fiat. Con-
sequently the South Hadley compay was
the victor. The record, for hand en-
CINE stream is 284 feet and seven and
half inches, so the Massachusetts lads
did not break a record although they
made remarkable try. The first prize
in the contest was $3.50 and the second
$3.50.
In the hose contest the first prize OF
$3.50 went to the Durkee company OF

AUTOMOBlLlSTINCO COURT.
n. &. Southworth Fined for TAX
ing Wheel off Minister'S Car
riaoe.

H. E. Southworth, of Winooski, was
fined So and costs of SIG 20 in city court
on Saturday for negligent automobile
driving. Mr.. Southworth also agreed
to reimburse the Rev w. F. Weeks for
damages caused to the carriage by his
automobile.
The accident happened last Tuesday
on the Shelburne road opposite the Tay-
lor residence. Both Mr.. Weeks and Mr..
Southworth were driving south Mr..
Weeks being ahead. A trolley car was
coming north at the time of the acct
dent and another team was also pass
ing on the east side of the road Mr..
Southworth testified that he endeavored
to pass Mr.. Weeks team by passing
around to the east, when the clergy
mans animal became frightened by the
car and bolted in front of the machine.
He managed to get by but was unaware
that he had caused any damage.
The machine took off one of the real
wheels of the wagon and the horse rar
into a neighboring yard. The court
thought that Mr.. Southworth was neg
ligent and should have trailed the car
riage until the car passed. Burlington

THE BOY AND THE SLUNGSHOT.
The other morning the writer found
the remains of two pretty bee martins
(king birds) in the corner of his or
chard and learned on inquiry that
some small boys had been in the To-
cality with slungshots the day before
and had found the birds easy victims
because of their loyalty to a nestful
Of f1edgelings placed on the archway to
a gate near the sidewalk. 1t is posi-
BILE that this offense was the result of
thoughtlessness and not because the
boys in question were bad at heart,
but the result was the same for the
birds. If highwayman had come
along when one of these boys was a
helpless babe in the cradle and had
wantonly killed both father and moth
er. resulting in the starvation of the
child, we would have an exact coun-
terpart of what happened to the birds.
Putting it in terms which every boy
who has spark of manlinesS and
fairness in his makeup can under
stand. the boys who killed these birds
did not give them square deal. Par
ticularly was this the case because
they were killed at nesting time, when
not only their own lives, but the lives
of their young. were at stake Fire
away boys, at red squirrels. English
sparrows, blackbirds, bluejays and
crows, but grant all useful birds free
dom from attack. but especially during

EIGHT DOLLAR LOSS PER cow.

The Wisconsin Dairymen's associa-
ton recently had a census taken Of
twenty-five herds Of common dairy
cows in a certain section Of the state,
and the data collected by the census
taker lin some instances he might we'll
have officiated In the capacity Of COW

degree, so much so that they will hold
In any section Of the country where
dairying Is followed. OF the twenty
five herds there was q variation in re-
turns running all the way from $35
profit per head to loss Of $500 per
head. not counting the value Of the
fertilizer or the calf. and it is likely
that calves from such cows wouldn't
amount to much for any purpose. One
man who MIXED eighteen cows
through the year realized the magnifi-
cent sum of 70 cents a head net for
his labor; another who MIXED eighteen
head was out Of pocket 80 cents a head

Of the dairyman who netted $35 per
head were grade Jerseys and Guern-
seys, while those who lost money in
their operations or made but little
were scrubs or grades of beef rather
than a dairy breed. In a majority of
cases scrub sires Of unknown or beef
parentage were used, and little or no
effort was made to improve the milk
! ing capacity of the herd. as the results
above noted clearly indicate. But five
silos were used in these twenty-five
cases. and with these the results were
vitiated because the silage was fed to
cows of no pronounced milk capacity.
The pointers to be got from a census
Of this kind are plain for any man
who has the primal sense to compre-

each animal in the herd so that the
owner may know just what return she
is giving; third, silos should be in
stalled to get the most value out of the
corn crop, and lastly, as large pei
cent as possible of the protein requir
ed in the ration should be furnished
by home grown clover, alfalfa or othel
legumes. Other things should be KEEP

EXTRAVAGANCE IN AUTOS
CAUSE OF A MONEY
STRlNGENCY.
Many Buyers Can't Afford Luxury
Says Chicago Summary of
Country's Condition
Crops are Salts
factory.

Chicago, Aug. 1.-THE Continental
and Commercial National Bank of Chi
cago has just issued its annual sum-
mary of financial, commercial and in
dustrial conditions. 1t contains some
very instructive and optimistic informa-
ton regarding the outlook. The sum-
mary, which is based upon reports
from the correspondents of the bank,
says the tendency of the future is
toward better times as a result of
present prosperity. The author points
out the necessity for central bank
reserve and shows that much of the
present stringency of money is caused
by the extravaganza of people in buy
ing automobiles which they cannot af-
ford.
Concerning the condition of the crops
the summary says:
"Our reports indicate total wheat
crop of 657, 900, 900 bushels, or 80, 900, 900
bushels less than last years record pro-
duction, but equal to ten years aver
age production. Corn promises yield
of 5000, 900, 900 bushels, or 225, 900, 900
bushels above the previous season and
25 per cent. over ten years average
crop. The oats yield will exceed last
years excellent production with total
| OF LUZ, OOO,O0 bushels, ZOO OOO,O OU
bushels over the ten-year average.
Barley will equal last years crop of
1913, 600, 600 bushels, and rye will exceed
the previous season, being 81, 500, 00C
bushels, comparing with 10000, DOC
bushels. The total production of these
grains, as reported to us, is 4, 1906, 600, 00C
bushels, while the ten-year average is
4,431, 900, 600 bushels. Cotton conditions
indicate crop of 100000 bales, or
700, 900 bales above last year.
Comment upon the extravaganza OF
people in buying automobiles, the sum-
mary says: cat any period prior to
ten years ago the expenditures upon au.
tomobiles during the past year would
have been inconceivable. There is ar
overwhelming volume of opinion that
even now this enormous outlay is ar
extravaganza that the country can il
afford. 3"
