Il FARM HAND.

Periana5 the biggest problem to-
day In feeding the American people
-at a fair price, is the difficulty of get
ting farm help. The agriculture de.
partment has just issued a bulletin
stating that The wages Of farm help
has increased "a per cent in 10 years.
Yet farm help Is scarcer than ever
The average price for farm labo,
shown by this bulletin is s1.S7 at har
vest, and S147 at other times. The
expense Of living is less in the coun.
try, but these only place the laborer
on a par with the latest freshman
from Italy. He gets 81 to $3.50 a day
merely for digging earth. A farm
hand should be a skilled workman.
Something has been done in recent
years to keep the farmers boys al
home. Many OF the schools arc rca
Iizing that ii Is much better TO teach
about the soils and farm ANIMALS
than to fit aim for the department
store ribbon counter But there are
"a OF i. attached young fe
lows, who through misfortune cr
other causes cannot forward to in.
,heritgng any farm property. How
keep these restless boys at homo?
Probably the farmers daughter
could answer that question about as
well as anyone. If you persuade her
10 keep away from the department
stores and the stenography schools
OF the cities, to help mother keep
house and cheer fathers days Of de
cline, there is something doing in the
silent old cross roads halls where
formerly the boys and girls used 80

the boys win stay, too.

THE PEAR AND HOW TO
R 1T.
BY C. B. BRAcKETT. PomolOgia.
Bureau Of Plant Industry. United
States Department Of Agriculture.

sTMEAR trees are more difficult to
maintain in a hefaslly, produe-
tive condition than apple trees
and cannot be grown with the
same degree Of success over so wide
an area Of country.
Trees p~ropagated by budding the
pear upon ounce stock are known as
dwarfs. The Anglers variety of ounce
is principally used for this purpose.
Such trees develop a fbrous root sys-
TEN. are dwarfed in habit and gener-
ally productive and come into bearing
early Some varieties succeed better
on ounce stock than on pear stock.
The dwarf type OF tree may be adj
vantageously used on small city lots,
but in some Of the eastern states there
are many large and profitable com
mercial pear orchards Of small size.
Trees produced by grating or bud
ding Improved varieties on Seeding
pear stock are known as standards.
They are comparatively longer lived
than dwarfs and in time become lar
ger trees. capable of yielding heavier
crops of fruit. but they usually come
into bearing more tardily.
The Tipping Process
A method Of converting dwarf trees
into half standards, often practiced
with good results, is known as the
Tipping process 1t consists in max
ing a slit with Il sharp knife through
the bark and slightly into the sapwood
of the tree in an upward direction just
above the union with the ounce root
on which it has been worked. At
these lips a callus forms from which
roots grow, and these in time become
strong enough to sustain the tree after
Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1913-03-22

the ounce roots become inactive. The
treatment must be given at the time
of setting the trees, and they must be
planted deeper than usual, so that the
point of union will be several inches
underground.
Pears do not certainly reproduce
themselves well or true to variety
when grown from seed; hence the ne
cessity for budding or grating in or
der to obtain the variety desired. But
if seedlings are desired good pear seeds
terminate readily when saved from
healthy, well matured fruit
The seeds should be s~tratifed--i. e.,
mixed in alternate layers Of moist sand
in a b~ox-covered securely to guard
against rats and mice. and the box
should be placed on the north side of
some building where it will be exposed
to freezing and thawing throughout
the winter until the time for planting.
If the seeds are planted in rows three
feet apart in good soil and given thor
ough culture they will make a SUM
cient growth in one season for budding
Or grafting. If wanted for root graft.
ing the seedlings should be taken up
In the fan and stored in a cellar. where
they will keep fresh and beiaccessible
at any time during the winter. If
wanted for budding they may be bur
led in the soil outside until the time of
planting in the spring.
Directions for budding, grating. etc.
require extended space. which cannot
be given here. They can be obtained
from agricultural experiment stations
and from experienced pear growers.
Most Desirable Soil.
The pear succeeds on a variety of
soils. For standards a clay loan hay
Ing a deep. porous subsoil. such as may
be found in forest clearings. into
which the roots win naturally pene-
trate, is most desirable. A clay loan

THE FIRST SEASON WITH
THE A RICHARD.
By MAURICE Al BLAKE Of the
New Jersey Agricultural Expen-
ment Station.

FT<HE selection Of the site for the
orchard Is one Of the FIRST con
siderations IN the planting Of
a peach orchard, and a very
important one, for 1t may mean success
or failure according to the character Of
the soil, exposure and elevation which
is chosen.
Most fruit growers realize the i'm
portance OF selecting a site which is
somewhat elevated above the sur
rounding land level. A site which is
severely exposed to strong prevailing
winds. however. should be avoided, as
the young trees are likely to be blown
over or loosened from the soil during
the first season OF growth. If one
plans TO develop extensive orchards
he should choose a site that will permit
of uniform and economical develop
ment and avoid areas with distinct ir-
Irregularities.
Selection OF a Site.
The selection of q site also involves
the selection of the soil, and this is Of

upon restricted sareas have
been very generally overlook
ed. with the result that many
persons who own a city lot, a suburban
home or eve "a farm now look upon
fruit as a luxury. This can all be
changed, but 1t must be remembered
that a fruit plantation must claim the
attention OF its owner from early
spring TO late autumn. Its products,
too, must be so planned as to cover
the greatest possible portion of the
seasons between frosts.
The soil at the disposal Of the grower

the newspaper inch means an inch

Fish is not only seasonable just at
present, and with few exceptions is
less stimulating and nourishing than
meat, but easier of digestion. Salmon,
for instance, should not be eaten by
those of weak digestion. Whitefish,
which is in market now, is most eX-
cellent and especially desirable for
for those of sedentary habits. Many
people have been told flshsis a good
brain food" on account of the large
amount of phosphorus which it con-
tains, but it is really on account Of
its easy digestibility, and should be
eaten when fresh and IN season.
Fish which are easy to cook in the
home and which are fresh now are
white, trout, shad roe, shad, bluefsh,
halibut and soft-shelled crabs and
clans.
Brciling and baking are the best
methods for cooking fish. Hallbut is
in season the year round; trout from
April to August, blueflsh from May
to October, and shad from January
to June. HOLSTERS will be the finest
from June to September, but are OBJ
taina0le all the year. Grabs are in
season during the spring and summer.
Never let fish stand in water, but
scale, clean and wipe with a cloth
wrung from cold water.
