RECORDS WILL
co THIS YEAR

TN HOSE in position to know are
unanimously predicting that
the 1913 State Fair will sur
pass anything of its nature
ever before staged in Michigan by an
enormous margin. 1t Will be Michi
gan's greatest agricultural and indus
trial exposition AL the pleasing fea
lures of last years Fair will be EN-
phasized to greater degree and new
ones introduced that cannot help but
meet with the sound Endorsement OF
progressive Michiganders. Fair week
will be from Sept. 10 to 20.
The educational efficiency of the Faii
will be elevated to a far greater extent
than in previous years. and the enter
tanning and instructive standards will
be higher
All of the big attractions are not
ready for announcement as yet, but
there is positive assurance that 1913
State Fair visitors will be furnished
with the most sensational and at the
same time most instructive entertain
ments ever exhibited in the west.
There will be actual working demon
strations at this years State Fair
which will be of great practical value
to every class Of people. These exhibi-
tions will convey knowledge to thou
sands OF persons who could not posi-
bly, obtain it without the expenditure
of thousands of dollars.
No matter in which direction vis-
itor cares to focus his view at the com.
ing Fair. he will observe something
worth seeing and thinking about. Ii
will be the states show window stock
richest commonwealths in the Union.
100000 Premium List.
The premium list alone, that of $780,
600, is in itself enough to justify the
success of the 1913 Fair This amount
Is far in excess of that offered by any
similar institution OF the same size in
existence.
This huge sum of money will be de
voted toward encouraging production
along the lines which will help solve
the many problems which confront
farmers and the business interests
which are dependent upon agricultural
productions.
IL Is the resolve of a thoroughly or
sanized and smooth working manage
ment to make the 1913 Fair powerful
factor in the Improvement OF i've
stock, farm efficiency ard country
citizenship. Clean. substantial informa
ton and entertaiument for all classps
and all ages will be the lofty ailn Of
those in charge of Michiglns CREATES,
Fair.
The number oi exhibitors. which cnn
be taken as Il good barometer OF
healthy growth, Is now far ahead OF
last years array With the premium
list just circulated The heads of the
various departments are confident OF
bigger and better exhibits. Even this
early adequate space FOR exhibitors is
problem,
In short. the management will en.
Geavor to suppant the idea that the
Michigan State Fair, Sept. 10 to 20.
Is going to be superficial entertain
ment or a home Of country vaudeville
and show the visitors that it does and
will continue to exert broadening
influence throughout the length and
breadth OF the fairest state in the

the bud stick to a depth OF perhaps

knife to a point above the bud a
long downward cut is made which
meets the lower end of the first cut
and the bud is removed with a chip

ed from the stock and the desired
bud is put in its place. This should
be carefully wrapped with such
material as will hold the ca1nblum
LAYERS of the stock and the bud

No attempt to bud the trees
should be made on rainy days Or
in early mornings following heavy
dews. Hot days should be avoid
ed, especially if accompanied by
drying winds. Moderately cool,
cloudy days without wind or rain
are the best for pecan budding.

'ANNULAR, PATCH AND CHIP
BUDDING
AS Applied to the Propagation and
Cultivation of Pecan Trees.

WHICH is attached q qua or the Qe-
sired variety from a bud stick to
the trunk or branch of another
tree in place of a similar ring of
bark previously removed. Special
ly designed tools have been devised
for the purpose of cutting the
rings. Two ordinary propagating
knives having single blades may
be fastened together and made to
answer the purpose. although they
are less liable to make Uniform in
cisiOns.
Cut a ring of bark from the
stock with one of the tools, slit it
with a single bladcd knife, and lift
from its bed or "matrix," as it is
technically called. Discard this
bark and from the bud stick re-
move a similar ring, in the center
of which is a dormant bud. The
bark of the bud stick should be slit
OH the side opposite the bud. I'M
mcdiately place this ring III the
space left by removing the bark
from the stock and wrap at once
with waxed cloth, taking care not
to cover the bud.
When the annular method is
used it is obvious that the stock
and scion must be of nearly the
same size. If the bud stick is
slightly larger than the stock, a
portion of the bark to which the
bud is attached, may be cut away
SO that the two ends Of the ring
just meet around the stock. If the
bud stick should be smaller than
the stock a strip of bark on the
latter may be left in position to
complete the ring.
In actual practice, rings which
extend only partly around the
stock are commonly used. Such
process. however, is not true an
nular budding, because any bark
which extends only partly around
the stock is merely a patch. 1t is
this deviation from the annula,
of budding that the term patch
budding" has been applied.
\ cut is made in the bark of the
bud stick about half an inch II
width by three times as long, in tn,
center of which is the bud. TIL,
piece of bark SO outlined is resnoy
ed from the bud stick and laid owe
that of the stock. Using this as
pattern, incisions are then mad
around it in the bark of the stock
The pattern is then removed, tn
section of bark outlined in tn
stock is lifted, and the bark fror
the bud stick is put i'll its place.
The buds best suited TO annula
or patch budding are those in tn
axis OF the leaves at the base {
the current seasons growth. 1t
we'll worth the time required ,
clip the leaves away. close to II

RABBITS AND HARES.
An Enormous Amount OF Damage
to Young Fruit Trees is Done
Every Year by Rabbits

present 10 IdDDIl> diiu *
lciallv on account of the great dain-
age which they may commit upon
cultivated crops, and also OH &C
count of the profits which may be
secured under favorable conditions
from the breeding of some races,
especially the Belgian hare. Rab-
bits and hares are universally hunt
ed for game and their meat makes
IA very pleasant and desirable
change in the diet.
Tn localities where these ANIMALS
have bred in the wild state to such
an extent as to become an agrlcul-
tural nuisance they have been kill
ed in great numbers and their meat
fused in canning. Large shipments
are annually made from California,
Colorado. and other western states
where the jack-rabbit has multi
Piled in large numbers.
Perhaps the most serious injury
is done by rabbits in gnawing the
bark of unprotected fruit trees in
| winter. When other food is scarce
rabbits may destroy whole orch
ards by girdling the trees. Vari-
Gus methods have been adopted for
the determination of rabbits in
such localities, and for the protec-
ton Of fruit trees against their at
tacks.
The methods employed for this
purpose include hunting with FIRE
arms or with ~ferrets, trapping, and
driving into corrals by means Of
regularly organized parties of
mounted hunters. The latter meth
tod has proved most successful in
California, Oregon, Utah, Idaho
and Colorado, where hundreds of
jack-rabbits have been captured in
this manner, as many as 10000
having been captured in a single
drive.
The attempt to destroy rabbits
by spreading contagious disease
among them has thus far not prov
EN- very successful. The use of
poisons, such as strychnine and
phosphorus, has certain disadvan-
tages, on account of the fact that
the 1ack-rabbits do not burrow. and
consequently the poisons must be
scattered on the surface Of the
ground and be a source Of danger
to other animals.
