SAVING THE GIRDLED TREES
Grating is Often Necessary Where
Mice and Rabbits Have Been at
Work-How IL 10 Done.

1t Is often necessary to resort to
grating to save tree that has been
girdled by mice or rabbits. This Ia
done by forming what is called a
bridge graft. The wound should first
be dressed by cutting away the rag
ged edges and painting the exposed
surface with lead paint.
Slender scions are used and are cut
thinly, wedge-shaped at both ends and
from one and one-half to two inches
longer than the wound is wide. Slip
the knife blade between the bark and
wood on one side of the wound. Start
one end of the scion under the bark
and push down firmly, then spring out
the scion and start the other end I'M
der the bark on the other side In the
same way.
The scion should now extend three
fourths to one inch under the bark on
each side. The bark Is tied tightly
over the scions and the whole, scions
and all, covered with wax. These
scions are to serve as a bridge
through which plant food may pass
and II growth starts on them 1t should
be rubbed off. They should be set as
close together al possible around the
stem

JUST WHEN TO PICK PEARS
Should Always Be Done Before Fully
Ripe, Without Brusing and With
Stems On-Aiso Graded.

Pears should always be picked care
ing, with the stems on. They should
be laid carefully in the picking bask-
cts. which should hold half bushel
or so. and then be hauled to the pack
ing-house or other convenient place
and at once sorted into grades. and
either packed or shipped or placed in
the ripening house for future ship
ment 1t is usually better. in most
cases. especially with summer fruit,
to pick the trees over two or three
times. although this is not absolutely
necessary, and unless the trees are
overloaded may not be worth while.
When the fruit has not been properly
thinned and the trees are overloaded
many growers begin to pick the fruit
long before it is full grown and send
1t to market. BY this means the trees
are not only relieved somewhat, but
the fruit that is left swells to the
largest possible bulk; moreover, salts
factory returns are often secured from

Favorite and Bartlett. Both of these
varieties will ripen up tolerably we'll
when they are not much more than
half grown. The same principle is
successfully used in handling LeConte
and Kieffer pears. but these should be
nearer maturity to be good.

Girdling or ringing consists in re-

Experiments With Strawberries.

Experiments made at the Pennsyl-
vania experiment station show that
hill strawberries are not larger and
better formed than those grown in
matted rows, provided the matted row
is a narrow one. Both hills and mat
ted rows produced fruit somewhat in
ferior to that from narrow matted
rows. 1t is evident that different soil
conditions and cultural methods, es-
pecially in the matter Of manuring,
would change these results somewhat
more favorably to the hill system.

CHIlD'S HEAD
A MASS OF HUMOR

Il think the Cuucura remedies are
the best remedies for eczema | have
ever heard OF. My mother had a child
who had a rash on its head when 1t
was real young. Doctor called 1t baby
rash. He gave us medicine, but It did
no good. In few days the head was
solid mass, a running sore. 1t was
awful; the child cried continually. We
had to hold him and watch him to
keep him from scratching the sore.
His suffering was dreadful. At last
we remembered Cuticura Remedies.
We got a dollar bottle OF Cuticura Re-
solvent, a box of Cuticura Ointment,
and bar Of Cuticura Soap. We gave
the Resolvent as directed, washed the
head with the Cuticura Soap, and ap-
piled the Cuticura Ointment. We had
not used half before the child's head
was clear and free from eczema, and
1t has never come back again. His
head was healthy and he had beau
