carefully tested by experiment Sta
tlons for years, and uniformly those
trees that received large amount OF
pruning for twelve or fifteen wears
are smaller than those that received

to observe this in the Missouri Ey-

Fhe advantages of the open head are

In working over the old orchard
) trees that are hopelessly weak

many limbs and some of these

Causes A Young Woman To

A. Strange Occurrence A
DanViIle On Wednesday

DanviIIe Ohio, March 4-An unfor.
tunate mishap occurred to Miss Ina
Banbury of this place "Wednesday af-
ternoon while visiting at the home Of
a neishbor. She was startled when a
small hoy burst a paper sack. which
was inflated, and entirely lost her
voice. Miss 6anbury can speak in a
very low whisper, but cannot utter a
sound that can be heard any distance.
She is entirely free from a cold.
Miss Banbury was visiting at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Judson Loney
when Master Dwight Loney suddenly
and without warning burst an inflated
paper bag. Being naturally of ner-
vous tendency, she was rendered in
serious condition for time but
rapidly grew better. Her voice. how
ever, mad deserted her mysteriously
and had not returned on Thursay af.
ternoon.
