How One Girl Carried Out Idea as to
the Furnishing and Col
oring.

Her brown study was the name q
girl gave 10 little room she had
made into a snuggery of her own,
where she could read and work and
have coy chats with her friends. II
was the brown study because brown
was the prevailing color, enlivened
with yellow. This girl did most OF the
work herself, tinting the walls a soft
yellow tan, with a picture molding
painted cream color near the ceiling.
The floor was stained slightly dark
er shade than the walls, and ON 1T were
laid rag rugs of browns, tans and yell
lows. The girl branded these rugs
from white material she had dyed her
self so that they would be just the
shades she wished.
SO far it was all plain brown, cream
and buff Now for variety and color
she chose a lowered cretonne with a
design of little yellow roses. With
this she made a slip cover for a little
low rocker. valance for the top Of
her window with side curtains just to
the sill, curtain ran on brass rod
instead of her cupboard door which
she had taken off, and slip cover for
her lounge. She preferred the slip
covers for her chair and sofa because
they could be sent to the wash occa-
tionally, SO keeping her room fresh
and bright. She framed an oblong mir
ror in the yellow rose cretonne, and
painted bureau, small kitchen
table, and two kitchen chairs in cream
colored paint. On the table she placed
her blotter with it's dullbrown cor
ners and over the table hung her book
shelves, well filled. Then she felt she
had a room to enjoy.

pass them around to the kids, he re-

easier to train in the desired direS-
ton.
Plum trees should be trained about
the same as apple trees. Keep the
center well opened to let in air and
sunlight, cut out broken and diseased
branches. and paint over the wounds
caused by pruning. Early in the spring
is the best time to prune plum trees,
though many very successful growers
do considerable pruning during the
month of June. When plums are
grown on a commercial scale it will
pay to introduce a definite system Of
Npruning, but on the average farm it

On an farms where it is practicable
| would advise the planting Of plum
trees in poGltry yards. The poultry
will eat up most Of the curculios and
give the soil paItial cultivation by
scratching and keeping down weeds.
They also solve the Nertilizer prob
lem, for the droppings\ afford an
abundance of suitable plant food for
the trees. Plum trees and \poultry
make an excellent combination both
fee profit and pleasure. If necessary
to apply fertilizers a mixture carrying
fair amount of potash should be
used.
The Japanese varieties are less sus-
ceptible to black-knot, but they are
not immune. Spraying helps to check
the disease. but proper pruning will
do more to hold it in check. Cut out
and burn every black-knot as soon as
it is discovered. BY persistent effort
there will be no difficulty from this
source. Spraying with Bordeaux and
hand thinning will help to check the
brown rot or ripe rot The plum
curculio is considered by many to be
ruinous to the plum crop. Some years
it greatly reduces the yield, but dur

ments show that it may be held in

during an average season will give

-
The ability OF the plum to adapt
Itself to various conditions of soil and
climate makes il one of our most
valuable fruits. There are many diff
ferent varieties of this fruit, some or
which are adapted to one soil and
climate and some to- another, so that
plums may be chosen that will thrive
in every locality in the temperate
regions Certain varieties can be sue.
cessfully grown in every state. In
spite of all its good points, this fruit
Is sadly neglected; in fact, a gond
plum orchard is rarity. The aver
age group of plum trees is merely a
breeding place for black-rot; only a
few trees ever bear fine and perfectly
shaped fruit.
When properly grown and well
ripened on the tree the plum is one
Of the most luscious fruits. AS a des-
sert fruit and for eating out of the
hand it is second only to the peach
For canning it has but one Superior
the peach, and for making jelly 1t
completes with the currant for first
place.
There are so many different yarie-
ties of plums that the problem of Sc
lecting those which are best suited to
particular soils and climate conditions
Is a difficult one. Many failures are
due TO the selection Of varieties that
Charlevoix county herald., 1913-05-31

are most desirable where they can be
successfully grown. They are slow
TO come into bearing and are more
susceptible TO attacks OF blackknot
The best varieties of European classes
are the Bradshaw, Lombard. Italian
Prune and Grand Duke. OF the other
favorite varieties the Green Gage
should not be forgotten. 1t is an ex-
cellent large plum and somewhat later
than some OF the other varieties. The
Yellow Egg plum is another choice
variety, bat it is comparatively diff
cult to grow. The Dawson is one of
the best market plums and in some
sections 1t is the best variety for
home use and for market.
Nearly all varieties of plums bear
better crops of fruit when a number
of varieties are growing near each
other. When the trees are planted in
gardens the varieties should be set In
close proximity or in alternating rows.
When planted for commercial orchards
not more than two or three rows of
one variety should be planted togeth-
er. 1t is important to plant varieties
which blossom about the same time
and place such varieties together that
better results of Disqualification
may be obtained.
The majority OF successful growers
prefer to plant one-year-old Japanese
trees because they are easier to ham
die and train in the way they desire
them to grow. On the other hand, In
buying the European varieties, two
year-old trees usually give the best re-
suits. These facts should be kept In
mind when buying nursery stock.
Cut back the trees severely before
planting. Cut OF all of the long roots
within eight or ten inches Of the main
root. Remove all Of the side branches
and shorten the main stem to about
two or three feet In order to secure
low heads. Low heads are preferable.
Trees prunsd In this manner are
