In spite of the calling of or the

weather yesterday, the North side peo-

both because of the hopes of good
meet today and because many feel that
a good showing has been made by the
First ward to the visitors.
These outsiders were all struck with
the appearance of the business houses
and residences of this section of To-
pelxa, Many of them could scarcely be-
Heve that so much progress could have
been made in the few years since 1888
Remarks like these were heard from
those who passed along north Kansas
avenue on the Seeing Topeka" cars
this morning.
Real estate men report that they re-
ceive many enquiries asking about To-
cations, the rent and price of homes,
the prospects of the North side.
Among other business houses the
Firth g. Short garage, with it's press
ed buff brick front and with its fresh
psint attracted considerable notice and
much favorable comment.
After the aviation meet which was
scheduled to begin on the Taylor tract
north of Garfield park Tuesday after
noon had been called off for the after
noon, members of the national guard
were stationed at the park end OF the
bridge across Soldier creek and IN
struoted to prevent anyone's passing.
THE strictness to which the orders
were adhered to is exemplif1ed by the
following incident:
e e, Olinger, secretary of the civic
club. and one of the directors of the
stock company which controls the Tay-
Tor tract, also one of the most instru-
mental in securing the land for the
aviation meet, was not permitted TO
step on the ground.
Mr. Olinger wanted to see some OF
the directors of the stock company
mentioned who had gone on the tract
previous to the issuing of the ORDERS

The Annie He Didn't Find.

A visitor to the orchard of Secretary
Huson of the Pa. State Horticultural So

garding what he saw:
"As we walked along Was challenged
to find an apple that was injured by the
codlipg moth worm and Mr.. Tyson said,

aud felt real spiteful because just
ached at that time to push wormy
apple under the nose OF the secretary OF
the State Horticultural Association, but
the apple was not to be found and had
to smile and say was not looking for q
wormy apple anyway. But what docs
this mean? First 1t means that some
mighty careful and intelligent spraying
with the right kind OF material at the
right time was done. The moths are

Orchard Work and Pruning.

Spring and warm weather are fast
coming with q smile that will gladden.
the hearts of the fruit growers and farm
ers of Maine. Most every farmer has q
job that has been staring him in the
face for many years and now the time
has come to look after 1t and you find
this sadly neglected place is your apple
orchard which now demands your close
attention. Many orchards in our state
are just dying for the want of some good
live man with lots of love for, brains and
ambition to prune the orchard. II moth
ing else is done, prune by all means,
but spraying and plant food are needed
Just as badly in order to grow good
fruit. A combination of pruning, spray
ing, and plenty of plant food will pro-
duce all you are looking for, first'class
fruit.
know it looks like an everlasting
job to prune those old trees that never
had their hair cut, or a shave. How
would we look il we had never had our
hair cut, or a shave, and had the same
old suit Of clothes on that We had worn
so years? We would look poverty strick-
en-. Now this is just the way many OF
the orchards are looking to-day. There
is more money in good, well-cared-for
orchard, than any other crop that can be
grown upon the hills Of Maine. Maine
has the climate, soil, trees, markets, all
close at hand and still many fruit grow
ers are getting out of the orchard that
is within their reach just simply because
of those terrible looking old trees. Now
the right time has arrived for this prun-
ing work. Don't do this pruning the
old way; climbing into the tree on a
ladder, by which you are liable to get
bad fall or broken bones. Now there Is
a much better, safer and faster way.
Get pruning saw, attach to . long pole,
and a pruning chisel attached to pole,
and stand on the ground, and you can
see what to do and how to do 1t, and
have a good view of the tree all the time
and shape it as you see fit. Now these
pole pruning tools will do more work In
one day than the old hand saw and lad
der in three days. This is my expert
ence in pruning fruit trees. We all
want to do and get the most from the
least labor. Use the pole pruners and
di scard the old methods of slow work In
the orchard and get out of the old stunt
ed way of growing fruits.-A. A. East

why Maine b. New York.

Il
The above was the title of very in
teresting address by Professor Dodge at
Cornell University during farmers
| week.
That the New York farmers are wax
| ing up to the fact that Maine does beat
them aud that they are anxious to learn
| be it was done was shown by the
crowd of eager listeners which filled the
hall to overfowing.
That Maine does head the list for yield
per acre was shown by few statistics.
In Maine in 1908 the average yield Of po-
tatoes per acre was 225 bushels; in New
York, 50 bushels, very little more than
one-third, while the average Of the
whole United States was 80 bushels.
You may say that 1908 was an exception
al year. Well, so it was to a certain ex-
tent, but for the past ten years Maine
has doubled New York's figures, the
average for Maine for the last 10 years
being III bushels, while New York was
only IS and all the United States 80.
The lecturer stated that there was no
reason why New York should not grow
as many bushels to the acre as Maine;
the soil and climate were just as good.
There is no reason except just careless
ness, as We have men all over New York
state that are growing just as many bush
els per acre as they do in Maine, but 1t
is the careless, shiftless men who bring
the yield down to one-half that of Maine.
Some of the reasons are as follows:
In New York there is very little clover
grown and rotation of crops is neglected,
while in Maine they make q practice of
a three-year rotation-clover one year,
potatoes, oats seeded to clover.
Fall plowing is general 10 Maine, but
very little practiced in New York.
This gives the thawing and freezing
of the winter chance to mellow up the
soil. There is very little economy OF
labor in New York, where the bulk OF
the potatoes are still dropped by hand
aud dug with fork. New York farm
ers are not sufficiently careful about
selection Of seed. Often many will buy
the culls and small potatoes for seed.
With more care New York's reputation
for seed potatoes would rank just as
high as Maine.
The lack of fertility in the land cuts
down the yield of New York. Here the
most Of the potatoes are grown on sta
BILE manure and often very little of this.
When fertilizer is applied the average
farmer is afraid of burning the seed II he
puts on more than 500 pounds of low
grade goods. In Maine it is common to
see from 1000 to $500 pounds Of high
grade fertilizer used per acre.
The New York farmer does not cult
vate or spray his potatoes as thoroughly
as is done in Maine.
The Maine farmer has much better
advantages in the way of storage houses.
The dealers make practice of shipping
out potatoes gradually for eight or nine
months, while for the lack of these
facilities in New York the potatoes have
TO be sold as soon as harvested regard
less of market conditions.
BY the interest shown and questions
asked it is evident that there will be a
great number of farmers trying to bring
the average of the Empire state up a
little higher than one-half that of the
Pine Tree state.-G. +. Marsh.
