Vacuum Clothes Washer,

newest invention to save labor in the
laundry. 1t operates on the vacuum
suction principle. supposedly releasing
the washwoman from the necessity OF
rubbing the garments. All the clothes
to be washed are merely put in the
clothes boiler with shaved soap or
washing powder and water, and the
vacuum washer. When the water
reaches the boiling point it is drawn
automatically from the bottom of the
boiler and forced up in a stream
through the clothes.
The vacuum washer is made of
zinc which is polished, so that it will
neither rust nor corrode. 1t is in fun

easier to train in the desired dir-c-
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 definite system of
pruning, but on the average farm it
is we'll 10 use the apple tree as q
guide in pruning plum trees.
On all farms where it is practicable
l would advise the planting of plum
trees in poultry yards The poultry
will eat up most of the curculios and
give the soil partial cultivation by
scratching and keeping down weeds.
They also solve the fertilizer prob
lem, for the droppings afford an
abundance of suitable plant food for
the trees. Plum trees and poultry
make an excellent combination, both
for profit and pleasure. If necessary
to apply fertilizers 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
ing the average year it is not seri-
Gus menace to the crop. 1t seldom re-

yards. The San Jose scale is the most
dangerous insect to plum tree. 1t
multiplies rapidly and trees once at
tackled are quickly ruined. Expert
! ments show that it may be held in
| check by the use of the lime-sulphur
spray. Plum trees require about the
same spraying as apple trees. Good,
thorough spraying three or four times
during an average season will give
good results. Reduce the Bordeaux
mixture to half strength for plum
trees. Too strong Bordeaux will be
injurious to the foliage of plum trees,
more especially the Japanese varie'
ties.
