Cut Out Crossed Branches.

There Is no better time to remove
crossed branches than the summer
when the twigs are in foliage. and
fruit and the branches touch If they
ever will The orchard should be gone
over thoroughly during the summer
and whenever two branches are
found rubbing against each other one
should be removed
The constant chatting of the bark at
the point OF contact not only makes
an unsightly scar. but affords an Cd
portunity for bacterial diseases tc
gain foothold- The best time to d.
rect branches SO that they will no,
cross is when the tree is young. The
proper shaping of the tree contem.
plates the prevention of crossed
branches.
An experienced pruner notes the di.
rection OF growing branches and
prunes accordingly.

Market Hous Early.

How should We manage the hog
marketing proposition? 1t is a simple
proposition. but few farmers have
backbone to carry 1t out. We would
advise a farmer with thrifty shoats to
purchase corn during the summer
months. If it does seem high. and
crowd his hogs on the market at the
earliest possible moment AS to the
exact date of profitable marketing we
would suggest early September as
the most propitious season. the wealth
er being about the proper tempera-
ture to promote the fattening process.
Simply begin to push the fatteners at
once and about the time farmers be-
gin to hog down their corn or to feed
1t to their hogs in various ways you
dispose of yours. avoiding the drop
that invariably follows the fall ship
ment of fat hogs.
