With more than twice the number of
bushels yet in the granaries, the price
is now 92 cents where il was 800 a
year ago.
oats have been marketed closer
than year ago and the price has been
correspondingly increased from .33
one year ago to sac now.
Corn has also been delivered closer
than year ago, only 80 per cent be-
ing left on the farms against 3S per
ent at this time last year, and there
is an increasing price offered to the
producer of &C cents as compared to

Tools.

Every man has suggestions to make
as TO the best tools; in pruning all Will
agree that the best results come from
using sharp saw, because il leaves
smoother surface to heal over. Those
who have used a double egded saw
find as an objection to il that the up
per edge frequently cuts into the bark
where il is not intended that IL should.
A swivel saw is on the market now
and makes very convenient tool be-
cause 1t can be drawn back and forth
in "a different plane from that Of the
blade. For work on other places
where one is not cramped for room
the back saw makes a rigid tool that
will not buckle and wear out mans
patience. A key hole saw will be
found worth while if one has any con-
siderable amount of work to do.
AS a rule the long primers on the
end of pole are not very satisfactory.
One should plan on using ladders and
pruning at close range, to get the
neatest results. Hand primers are
used more than any other tool on the
trees that receive attention every year
especially. 1t a man is watching his
trees properly, ii ought never to be
necessary to take off a limb four or
more inches in diameter, because he
will have foreseen the need of its re-
moval before it attains any such size,
barring unexpected diseases.
Time for Pruning.
One of our neighbors who has
grown apples for thirty-three years,
selling one orchard in Van Buren,
County for 100000 an acre, was ask
ed his opinion as to the best time to
prune apples, His answer was ANY
time when the knife is sharp" He is
an old man, and let's the boys do the
heavy work, while he strolls around
the trees and takes pride in their care.
He never goes through the orchard
without seeing a limb here or a shoot
there that needs a nip with the knife
or shears. If we cannot watch our
trees all the time, however, and have
TO do considerable pruning at once, it
makes some differences what time of
the year il is done. The effect of
pruning in summer when the trees
are in full foliage would be to lessen
the vitality Of the tree for wood for
nation and bend all efforts the plant
put forth into the directions Of fruit
production. AS a rule we recommend
pruning while the trees are dormant
and preferably in late winter or early
spring. Wounds made at this time will
have the shortest possible period of
waiting until growth and healing over
of the wounds starts in the spring.
Trees pruned while dormant tend to
Belding banner. (Belding, Mich.) 1889-1918, 1914-03-18
HORTICULTURE E, H. Brown
TIMELY SUGGESTIONS REGARDING PRUNING

wood production, because none of the
food which is stored in the roots over
winter has been lost by the operation,
while on the other hand there is less
top for the tree TO support than for
mefly. This does not mean that the
fruit buds which are left will receive
any less nourishment, however.
Lowering the Top.
The temptation in pruning is to
work from the ground and trim the
trees up. A better method, if we wish
to pick the fancy fruit that grows in
the top OF the trees instead of shaking
il down, is to start with a ladder and
aim to prune the top out and trim the
trees back and down, rather than up.
A low. broad, flat topped tree, as far
as possible for the variety, is on the
whole the most desirable shape to
work towards as an ideal If we allow
foot of new growth to remain each
year, removing any in excess, we will
not be accused of having headed back
too much by the time the trees are
twenty years old. OF course there is
always the objection to low headed
tree that il is difficult to work under,
but the implement dealers are hand
tons. and the inconvenience of dodg-
ing around the limbs at cultivating
time will be more than offset at spray
ing and thinning and picking time.
Training Young Trees.
Trees that have not as yet any indi-
cations of scaffold limbs being Sc
lected and a head formed should be
trained in a more careful way than
older trees. There should be from
three to five scaffold limbs springing
from the body of the tree. These
should be distributed over a space of
about two feet along the body of the
tree; if they arise at a common point
there will tend to be a splitting down
of the tree at that point later on when
! loaded with fruit or a winter load of
snow or ice. furthermore, these scat
fold limbs should point into different
directions, with balance in favor of
the west, the direction of our prevail
ing winds.
The new growth Of young apple
trees may reach a length of three feet
or more. If il is not cut back every
year to ten or twelve inches the re-
sulting trees will be tall and willowy,
with a few side branches. In doing
this heading in, il is desirable to make
the cut about three Fights of an inch
above bud that points in the drec-
ton which you would like to see the
new growth take. AS a rule, the last
bud left on the shoot will become the
leader for the next year, so with this
fact in mind one can train for form
and head back at the same operation.
