HORTICULTURAL NOTES.

Manure the orchard and fruit gar
den.
One of the best methods for growing
better apples is to prune your orchard.
Slow decay is just what proves best
for a supply of potash, phosphorus and
lime for the trees.
The production of apples is 42.5 per
cent. of full crop. compared with
43.4 per cent in 1908.
Unless a tree is given a great deal
of attention by pruning it often be-
comes very crooked and unsymmet-
rical.
A young peach tree needs vigorous
pruning. but a bearing tree in good
soil needs little, except to remove
dead and surplus branches.
The object of pruning is to short
en- the new growth leaving approxi-
mately the amount of fruiting wood
which the vine can safely carry.
Nursery wires may be choking
young trees planted last spring. They
should be carefully examined and such
vines removed before growth starts.
An operation Of orchard culture
which Is rarely practiced in the home
orchard, but very essential to the de-
velopment of good formed trees, is
pruning
The old orchard that has trees 12
to IS wears old and older, and already
in bearing, will be benefited by heavy
applications of stable litter or other
fertilizer.
Secretary Wilson says that the most
practical way to fight plant disease
is to use natures method and secure
or breed up disease-resistant or i'm.
mune plants.
Can you spare some of the barn
yard manure for the orchard this
winter? Draw it out now, mulch the
trees we'll and see II you do not get a
good crop Of fruit next fall.
Grape vines, planted for foliage as
we'll as fruit, should have the arms
evenly placed about two feet apart on
the trellls, and the cones cut back TO
two or three buds.
While woodpeckers are among our
most useful birds on account of their
destruction Of boring and other inju'
rious insects, yet there are three spe-
| cies known as sapsuckers, which,
while they eat many insectsi more
than offset the good they do by Dor
ing into the inner layer of the bark
OF trees for the sake of the sap which
exudes from the wounds.

Feeding Draft Colts.

Feed the draft colts strong for all
the growth and development possible
in the early maturity to get into the
big gelding market as soon as pos
sible, where prices are high, but do
not feed corn and oil meal to fatten
the colts and young horses as you
would to a fat steer. Horses want
bone and muscle along with their
largo size. With the run Of the pas
ture every day for vigorous exercise,
and as soon as old enough give them
careful work; then you can increase
the feed and get them in good show
condition, and with work enough to
keep them in the best condition the
buyers will pay you S25 to $50 more
than for the thin horse.

Parks and Politics.

II has been demonstrated by expert
ence In many cities that the park sys-
TEN more than any other Of the un-
dertakings Of a city should be man
aged independently Of the council or
legislative body OF the city govern
ment. The reason for this is. OF
course, that the majority Of the mem
bers OF the city government is COM
posed OF practical politicians or OF
men who have about the same educa-
tion, the same impulses and ideas
ard about the same tastes It should
be clearly understood that no blame
is meant 10 be cast upon practical
politicians. It is simply fact that
when they control the management OF
parks, the results attained from the
point OF view OF art are poor, some
times very bad indeed.

DRY FARMING Is ANALYzED
Proposition is Simple and Takes Into
Account Four Thlngs-All tho
Work implies Water.

The dry farming proposition is al
bottom very simple 1t takes account
Of four things.
Get a Deep watef Reservoir.-To
get this, plow deep, or put subsoll
plow after the stubble plow.
Make a Firm Seed Bed.-To secure
this use some system OF packing the
soil, preferably the sub-surface pack
er This provides the grain with the
best opportunity for termination.
Keep a Dust Mulch.-This is the
cork that bottles up the water held in
the reservoir, and that is given to
the plant through the medium of q
well-prepared seed bed.
Get Plenty of Rain.-Dry farming
enthusiasts frequently forget TO men
tion this item, but II really Is impor-
tant. Dry land produces nothing. All
the work done implies water. Get
water, or fall!
This is the dry farming gospel in
nutshell The rest is amplihcation.
There can be no hard and fast rules
laid down, cropping systems differ,
and in order to meet the conditions
above laid down, methods must differ
locally. Which leads TO the final re-
mark that when man is betting his
time and that of his family against a
new country and limited rainfall, he
neds a whole lot OF common sense
or an inordinatc amount Of luck

IN SCHOOL COURSE
English Children Are Now Required TO
Do Certain Amount Of Practical
Work.

Gardening is now Included as co
dal subject for English school chill
dren. There are two courses in the
year. each consisting of at least twen'
ty hours practical work.
"The boys are quite keen about II"
said the head teacher Of Sutton
schools. Each of the fourteen lads
who form the class for gardening has
his own little plot of ground for
which he is responsible and at which
he works under my supervision The
produce Is his. and great is the Joy OF
taking home the first spring radlshes
of his own growing, a fine head Of let
tuce. or basketful OF marrowfat peas.
"As to the education benefit, garden.
ing teaches the boys TO do the right
thing at the right time and induces
habits Of method and observation. II
also creates love of outdoor life--a
splendid counter.attraction In later
years to the public house and music
hall"
Two hours and half week is all
the time that can be given to garden
ing, but so keen are the children tha'
they put In a good many spare minutes
on their own account Even the In
fants, under the kindly care of the
schoolmaster's wife, have their own
special allotment, which they zeal
ously rake and weed and generally
look after. The mysteries of digging
trenching. potting, grating, etc.-ir
fact, a good. all-around training In
the growing of vegetables, herbs
fruits and nowers-is impaired with
most happy results.
| The cultivation Of peas, lettuce anc
tomatoes proves perhaps more attrac
tive on the whole than that OF roses
and carnations, but flowers are by nj
means neglected. A fine chrysanthe

garden, the splendid blooms OF whicl

many man becomes disgusted when

bunch of males that he cannot dispose

to dispose Of them later on as stays

1t must be admitted that there are
exceptional cases and sometimes the
best profits are realized in handling
a new breed. A good example Of this
could be found in popularity Of the
Hampshire hog. On account of the
growthiness of this breed. their pro-

FOR PARKS AND BOULEvARDS
Constitute a Commercial Asset That
No Progressive City Can
Afford to Ignore.

In fifteen years Kansas City has
built up system of forty-hve miles
of boulevards and more than two
thousand one hundred acres of parks.
According to recent article in the
Outlook. George e. Kessler, the land
scape architect for the park board,
says the parks and boulevards are a
distinct commercial asset. While the
system has cost $40 100000 the prop
erty fronting on these boulevards has
been advanced by them more than
that amount"
When It was first proposed to es-
tablish such a system the proposition
aroused fierce opposition and long
and hard fight was necessary in the
courts before the improvements could
begin.
No city is likely to make a mistake
in spending literally from its rev.
enues for the maintenance OF parks
and drlveways. There are different
plans OF making these improvements.
Kansas City has made them by as
sesslng the cost against the property
benefited by the Improvement. Other
cities have issued bonds. and others
still have made special tax levies.
In whatever way, provided II the ex.
pense be not utterly out OF reason,
parks and boulevards are a good in.
vestment and "a commercial asset
that no progressive city can afford to

matter Of little importance.
AS a matter Of fact, trees are giving

though 20 much less extent, OF

warm, sunny days in winter, there is
a considerable loss of moisture

furnish this loss, though the soil about
them be frozen. The ability to do this
is naturally less II the soil be dry or
frozen very hard. In that case, tho
loss of moisture results in q more or
less complete drying up of the tissues
OF the plants and this often results In
the death OF the tree.
What is known as rootkilling may
in some instance be due to the imma'
ture or unripe condition OF the plant
when winter begins, but in most cases,

when applied to a community whose
