PRurrNa APPLE TREES

Apple trees may be pruned any time
from late in the fall until spring Care
should be exercised in pruning to give
the trees an open head. This does not
imply that all small limbs should be
removed leaving lot of whipstocks. but
that such Of the larger limbs that are
parallel and close together, or those that
cross, should be cut out Half CT the
difficulty of pruning is avoided If one
decided to allow the tree TO take its
natural turn rather than to shape It to
some particular model.
Too many fruit growers think that
pruning a tree shortens its life. Theirs
is little reason for such belief other
than the general statement that 1t Is
unnatural to prune tree. However, ma
ture prunes more heavily than men and.
at all seasons and in the rudest m'anner.
BY this it should not be understood that
care is not necessary in the mechanical
operation of pruning. It is important
that large limbs be removed with great
care and the wounds painted to prevent
the entrance of fungi which win induce
decay.
Avoid all crotches that viii have a
tendency to split down or break when
the trees become loaded with heavy
fruits or sleet and ice If bad crotches
cannot be avoided they should be-
strengthened with iron bolts to prevent
them from breaking and running the tree.

rHr rxpERTnNcH on MANY

"A man who has gone into the poultry
business in the right way recently receiv-
ed jolt that surprised him. He paid a
good price for eggs guaranteed to be from
hens that had scored 100 points and when
his first flock of birds We're about year
old he had them scored by a local judge.
He was delighted when several of his
best pullets and cockerels scored 100 and
the rest ran up above IS. He was sure he
had champion prize winners until he sent
about a dozen of his best ones TO the
Chicago Poultry show. Then came the
jolt.
His birds were judged by men who
know their business and play no favor
ties and the result showed none of his
stock to be better than 49, while more
than half of the flock ran down below IS.
OF course his birds are pretty good at
that but not good enough to bring fancy
prices, while the eggs will bring little if
anything above store prices.
This mans experience Is too often re-
peated. The whole trouble lies in anna
teurs expecting too much of their flock.

gpREADrra 1rANURE.

A great many farmers argue that ma
nure must be spread during the winter
In order to be of any benefit to the
ground the following season. Our expe-
rience disproves this argument and goes
still a step further. proving that manure
spread even in the late spring will great
ly improve the crop that season,
Last spring after our corn had been
planted straw manure and refuse from
the feed lots were hauled out and spread
over the corn field Partly as an expert
ment we chose little slope where the
ground was thin and gravelly.
When the corn came up 1t soon took
on deeper and healthier hue where the
manure had been spread and the growth
of the plant was more rapidly promoted
than in other portions of the field.
Also, this particular spot was almost
entirely free from weed pests of any
kind during the whole season, the ma
nure forming a sort of mulch which
smothered out the weeds.
These favorable conditions were main
tanned till corn gathering when there
was a marked difference in the yield OF
corn in a certain portion of the field
the difference being several bushels more
per acre in favor of the ground on which
the manure was spread after planting

Here is a little woman who finds her
work in helping the states to be good
housekeepers. Mrs. Albion Fellows Ba-
con, a director of the National Housing
association. was responsible for the law
enacted by the last Indiana legislature
regulating the construction of tenements
in the larger cities. She Is attempting
now to foil any attempt to repeal the
law. and also seeks to extend its pro-
visions to smaller towns.
Slums-meaning cheap, unsanitary
houses in which the poor live crowded
together-are as common in the small
towns as they are in the large, she says.
A pressing problem in the middle west
and eastern states, she thinks, is to
check the growth of these civic cancers
by stringent building laws before the
cities become weakened by slum poisons
as have those older communities of the
east.

THE SUN


when all the skies are clear and blue
The sun has lots of work to DO
But when his rays by clouds are barred
He's not Obliged to work so hard;
Yet when he works, he works all day.
And never stops for food or play;
And even if he's in eclipse,
He does not cease his daily trips;
And when we think he's gone to rest
He's shining somewhere farther west
And while we fold our weary hands
His beams are lighting other lands.
He's not like men who work for pelf,
Ind has no evenings to himself,
For with the sun it's always light,
And where he goes there is no nlght'
If we could all be like the sun
How smoothly everything would run!
He is not gruff and rude, and thus
Is different from most of us.
He's never cross like you and me,
Though in July he seems to be.
He's happy when he does his best,
And brightest when he's busiest.

Systematic pruning and tree surgery
are very closely related. Tree surgery
includes the intelligent protection of all
mechanical injuries and cavities. Pruning
requires previous intimate knowledge
of the habits of growth of trees; surgery,
on the other hand, requires, in addition,
a knowledge OF the best methods for
making cavities air tight and preventing
decay. The caring for cavities in trees
must be urged as the only means of
preserving affected specimens, and the
preservation of many noble specimens
mas been at least temporarily assured
through the efforts of those practicing
this kind of work.
