of the cross pieces, which push. the

be provided with shoes three feet
long and three or four inches wide.

carry when it passes over rise and
will unload when the two ends are

TT is common practice to keep the
cultivator going until late in July
4 in corn and beans, but many and
In fact most farmers and small frui,
growers do not think 1T necessary to
pay much attention to the cultivation
of the brambles. The most success
full growers, however, cultivate them
up to picking time and then cultivate
the ground after every picking. thus
making and keeping the soil mulch
which Is so necessary in order to
utilize all Of the soil water to the
very best advantage. Continue this
cultivation until about the first OF
August, then discontinue 1t, as 1t is
necessary to stop the rapid growth In
order for the canes to become well
matured before winter so that they
will not be so apt to freeze back.
Some growers place the rows far
enough apart-nine or ten feet--so
that a disk harrow can be used with
two horses throughout the season.
Pruning of the brambles differs not
only with the kind, but also with va
rieties, but generally speaking the
new growths of black raspberries and
purple cane raspberries should be tip
ped as soon as they reach height of
two to two and one-half feet, even
though 1t is necessary to do it picking
time. This causes the side branches
to develop quickly and gives them a
longer time to make strong side
shoots. The black raspberry should be
tipped as soon as 1t reaches a height
of eighteen inches to two feet.
The young shoots of the red rasp-
berry should not be touched until the
following spring, then all shoots OF. all
brambles should be cut back to the
point where the shoot begins to curve
toward, the ground. Many growers
put off" pruning out the old fruit
canes until the spring pruning, but
this Is wrong practice. The old
canes of all kinds of brambles should
be taken out just as soon as the canes
have stopped fruiting. In fact some
growers have them nearly all re-
moved by the time the pickers are
through the last time. These old
canesHi IL allowed to remain simply
spread disease. take up room and
shade the young growths. These old
canes harbor insect pests and they
are the ones most apt to have an
a disease which works on
the cane, girdling it, or nearly so,
causing the fruit to ripen prematurely
or dry up on the bushes. 1t can be
kept from spreading to the other new
canes to great extent by cutting out
these old canes as soon after harvest
ing as possible, then burn the prun-
ings; do not leave them in the row
for some future time, as they are as
bad there as they were on the bush.

O'ConnsIl's Wonderful Oratory.

Daniel O'COnnell. the Irish orator,
spoke In COyent Garden, London, many

English actor. pictured him as fol-
lows: The audience hung spellbOund
on the words of the great orator. His
resonant and magnificent voice, flavor
ed with its rich Hibernian accent,
held both soul and sense captive. As
for me, my Celtic blood took fire, my
heart throbbed With passionate indig-
nation or melted into tears as he
dwelt upon the wrongs of my beloved
country. Never, surely, was such a
born orator! Stern men cried one
moment and laughed the next Strange
to say, they meyer laughed in the
wrong place, though once at least he
afforded them a unique opportunity.
AS he approached the end Of his ora
tion. carried away by his theme, he
took his wig Off Ia brown jazey) put
It in his hat and mopped his beauti-
full bald brow with a great flaming
crimson bandanna. The action ap-
peared so natural and appropriate
that no one seemed to think 1t absurd
or even incongruous"

M erations Is the form of surface

makes machinery work with greater
difficulty. but causes the crop to be
spotted, due to uneven supply of
moisture and fertility. The little ele-
yations shed the water which carries
with it the readily available plant

level the manure will stay more even
