FOR THE YOUNe PEOPLE

Prof. Robertson was In Lexington
on Thursday the 18th, attending the
summer meeting of the Executive
Board Of the Young Peoples Society
of Christian Endeavor for Kentucky.
The meeting was exceptionally well
attended and the greater part of the
cay was spent in careful consdera-
ton OF the work and of plans for the
year.
provided for was a travelling secre-
tary to be in the field most of the
year. The watchword for the present
is greater efficiency in organization
and the work of the secretary is
to be mainly along this line. There
is need OF better organization in each
local society and in the grouping Of
Societies into districts. A stand was
also taken for greater attention in
the purposes of the society to the
various lines of social service. It
may not be known to many that the
Kentucky Endeavor leads all the
states in its work for the young men
and women in the prisons. The recent
introduction of Sunday baseball and
moving picture entertainments on
Sunday has interfered somewhat with
the work of the society and this
was prominent subject of discus
sion.
IL was also the sense of the meet
ing that the temperance movement is
at present time the one that makes
for good citizenship and that special
attention should be given to that.
The committee on Good CITIZENSHIP
vas made to include temperance.
A new movement of great signif.
canoe was the provision for sending
visiting delegates to the Conventions
CT the Epworth league and the Bap-
fist Young Peoples Union with the
purpose of creating a more friendly
cooperation among all of the young
peoples societies and lessening thu
denominational lines, The initiative
in this was taken by member of
the Board who is himself a member
OF the Epworth League
The president of the State organi-
cation is Mr., Martin of Nicholasville,
ar energetic young business man,
aud the secretary is Mrs. c. +. Evans
Of Lexington, a young woman who
gives to the work a great deal Of
time and exertion purely as a service
10 young people of the state.
The next convention of the So
ciety will be held at Mt Sterling
in May of 1913. As this is in Eastern
Kentucky the readers of The Citizen
should be especially interested in II
aud look forward 10 attending and
extending the work of this society
more widely among the young peo-
pie of Eastern Kentucky.

RULE FOR PRUNING SHRUBS
Operation Should Be Performed After
They Flower, Except In Case
Of Hydranoeas.

All Towering shrubs but hydrangeas
should be pruned after they flower.
Most people who spoil the Towering
shrubs do so because they prune them
at the wrong time Of the year.
The expert gardener who really
knows what he wants, and how to at
tain 1t, can prune at any time Of the
year, but for the inexperienced anna
teur 1t is wise to follow this safe rule
-prune after Towering. This is stat
ing the idea in the shortest terms. and
In practice Is the same as the rule
commonly given, viz, to prune spring
Towering shrubs In the early sum-
mer. and the late Towering kinds. like
the hydrangea. in the winter.
Pruning is done for three definite
objects: First, to keep the bushes in
proper shape; secondly. to keep them
within bounds; thirdly. to insure an
abundance of bloom next year. These
three objects can be attained at the
same time. but generally the third fea-
ture is sacrificed to the other two. The
broad principle to observe Is to re-
move all branches which have flower
ed. This causes other buds to push
out and the new wood is made for the
next crop OF flowers. All dead wood
or overcrowded branches will OF
course be removed In the ordinary
course Of events.
All the common or popular spring
blooming shrubs flower from buds
made on the shoots Of the previous
year; they have the buds all ready to
develop as soon as there Is sufficient
warmth. BY pruning as soon as now
ering is done room Ia made for full
growth of the new shoot which will
flower next season. These shoots are
strengthened by this exposure to
plenty of light and air. and are In
every way better. Moreover. the anna
teur can see just what he is doing.
The expert horticulturist. who can
tell the old wood from the new. will
prune In winter or early spring, and
De quite successful, and he will get
more profuse blooming.-Garden and
Farm Almanac.

Movable School of Agriculture Arouses
Interest Of Farmers at the
State Convention.

An interesting feature of the recent
annual State Grange convention in
the state of Oregon was a movable
school of agriculture" that attracted
widespread attention. The Oregon
Agricultural college had the exhibit
in charge and the farmers were
nightly interested
The exhibit consisted of a small
model school, with a suggestive pro-
gram of practical information which
the farmer could use in everyday
work, while members of the college
faculty were present to explain the
exhibits and apparatus.
AS an outgrowth of the farmers in
stitutes there has developed an urgent
demand for more extensive educa-
tional system for the farmer. The
movable school is suggested by the
college as solution of the difficulty
80 that, practically in their own
homes, all who desire may have the
advantage Of moderately equipped
laboratories for technical study and
practical work In problems relating to
the farm and home.
The one-week program suggested by
the domestic science department in
cludes sewing, bread making, meats
and vegetables, home nursing, invalid
diet, and like subjects. The horticul-
ture department outlined three days
work In pruning, grating, budding,
spraying, apple packing, and similar
topics. The poultry department sug-
gests teaching the housing of fowls,
incubation and brooding, and the solu-
ton of other problems Of the poultry
farmer
The college planned to conduct
these schools at least three days at a
time in each place, with three or more
departments of instruction, such as
domestic science, dairying, poultry
husbandry and horticulture. But few
can be sent out at present. since the
