This form OF grating is often carried
to an extreme and becomes more specta.
cular than practical. Young trees are
planted about the base of fruiting trees
that have had their roots killed or
severely injured. The tops of the young
trees are cut away and the tops Of the
trunks are grated into the trunk of
the larger tree. If the work is care.
fully done the wood will unite and the
top OF the old tree serves as top for
the young ones and the roots of the
young tree serves as the roots for the
old tree. Trees of special value may
be saved for few years by this pro.
cess, but it is not practical for orchard
work.
Wakes.
A good grating wax is very i'm.
portant and should be prepared at some
leisure time before the grating is to
be done. The use of wax is to ex.
clude air and moisture and to keep in.
fections from entering the wounds. All
stubs should be waxed over immediately
after placing of the scions, and re.
waxed whenever the wax melts or
cracks so as to expose the wound.
A very good wax is made from one
pound of tallow, two pounds of beeswax
(Which need not be refined wax sold at
drug stores), and four pounds of resin.
These materials should be melted TO.
gether and while hot poured into a
bucket or tub of cold water. After the
mass has hardened sufficiently to han.
die with the hands, lift out and pull
like taffy, until it becomes tough and
turns light color, then wrap in creased
paper and lay away for use. Chunks of
this preparation can be melted as need.
ed and applied with brush.
A wax which may be applied with the
hands in warm weather without melting
is made from one pound of tallow, one
pound Of beeswax, and four pounds of
resin, prepared the same as for the form.
er wax. Another good wax that may
be applied with brush while warm is
made by melting together three pounds
Of resin, one pound Of beeswax and one
pint Of raw linseed oil.

Pruning Methods.

Pruning demonstrations were recently
given at Sutherlin, Oregon, under the
auspices Of the Fruit Growers Associa.

and farmers attended these outdoor
school lessons and engaged in the prac.

Interesting Large

blade of the leaf should be cut off as
soon as the twig is cut. The stem Of
the leaf serves as handle for the bud.
The buds are cut by placing the edge of
the knife about one-half inch below the
attached left stem and with a circular
motion cut up and into the wood SO
that at the point just beneath the bud
about one-third of the diameter Of the
twig will be cut away. The last cut
that removes the bud from the stock is
made about one-half inch above the
bud or even with edge Of the knife,
shown in Fig. 2. The stock is prepared
to receive the bud by longitudinal
split about one and half inches long
with cross-cut at the top, as shown
in Fig. 3. The point Of the bud is then
inserted under the corners Of the bark,
as shown in Fig. 4, and pushed as far
down the split will let it 60. 1t is then
wrapped, as shown in Fig. S. The bind.
ing should be cut in week or ten days
If the bud is still green and looks
plump at the end Of that time the bud
has grown attached to the wood and
the branch above should be cut away
before growth starts the following
spring. Irrigating just before the bud
ding is to be done will cause the trees
to start rapid growth and the work
can be done more successfully than at
any other time.
Budding is especially successful on
the stone fruits and grating is seldom
successful; grating is most successful
on the apple and pear and budding is
least successful.
Bridge Grating.
Orchard trees are frequently girdled
by mice and rabbits during tho winter.
Careless driving in the tillage work in
the orchard frequently results in marked
and injured trees. In all such cases

" EEP your trees which have been
N set a year, well opened up by
pruning to form spreading heads,
giving plenty Of space for sunlight
and the circulation of air through the
branches. More than rs per cent of
the bearing apple and pear trees in the
Coast section of the Pacific Northwest
have too dense tops to produce well
favored fruit of standard size and aver.
age quality. An experienced apple
growers plan is to have three main
branches start as low down as possible
instead of main trunk.
These should start from two forks
foot or more apart, and may be al.
lowed to fork again at a foot and a
half to two feet from the main trunk.
This makes six sub-branches upon which
the entire structure Of the top may be
built. OF course short twigs may be
allowed to grow out from these branches
and even from the trunk. Indeed, it is
advisable to encourage such growth to
prevent sunburn and promote more rapid
development Of the trunk, also these
twigs, if properly handled, will become

Don't Spare Tree.
In shaping young tree two or four
years old, the grower need not hesitate
to remove one-third to half of the top,
for this apparent loss will be quickly
made up and along the correct lines.
The pruning referred to is to be done
with the shears, no undesirable limbs
being allowed to grow large enough to
require saving.
The shaping of young trees can be
greatly simplified by summer pruning.
In this way the growth can be con-
tinually directed along the correct lines

If the wound extends only through the
bark and not into the wood and is dis
covered before the wood is dried, a
good dressing of wax or wet clay may
protect the tissue and a new bark be
formed. If the wound extends into the
wood or the wood is dried, or if the
bark and outer layer of the sap wood
has been killed by winter injury or by
disease the tree can often be saved by
bridge grating. This work can be done
best in the early spring just before
growth starts, but it can sometimes be
done with good results during the grow.
ing season. If the work is well done
the trees may not suffer noticeable
check in growth.
The edge of the bark about the
wound should be trimmed back to clean,
live tissues. Twigs of last year g
growth should be used for the bridge
than the width Of the girdle and sharp.
ened at each end in thin wedge shape.
The butt end of the scion is inserted
under the bark below the girdle and
the tip end is inserted under the bark
at the upper edge of the girdle. The
trunk is entirely surrounded by these
scions set as described and as close
together as they can be well placed.
The lines Of union are then walked over
and bound firmly with strips of cloth.
In two or three years growth, these
twigs unite and make a solid and com.
lplete bark.

Some Ideas On Tree Pruning Given

Have Too Dense Crops-Sunlight Is Needed

All the shoots should be nipped back
three or four times during the summer.
This will cause them to grow sturdy
and strong enough to resist the wind.
Undesirable shoots can be prevented
from growing by summer pruning, and
also much benefit will be derived from
frequent removal of mildewed and 9th.

Use Of Saw Saved.

By following out such system Of
summer and winter pruning, the young
trees may be developed to full bear
ing condition without the use Of the
saw, thereby avoiding the woodrot trou.
BILE and insuring profitable production
for so to rs years.
The points to be remembered are the
removal of undesirable branches before
they have become too large to cut with
the shears, and the pruning out Of all
diseased twigs, especially those covered
with mildew, moss or lichens.

the stub waxed over as in the cleft
graft. Care must be exercised to see
that the scions, which are cut as for a
cleft graft, are fitted firmly in place.
Bark Grating.
Bark grating is form of top graft
ing that is often used with success
on old trees or on large limbs on young
er trees. The branch is cut off the
same as for cleft grating and the edge
is smoothed down with sharp knife.
The stock is not split but, the scion
is pushed down between the bark and
the wood. The scion is cut to shoulder
on either side with very thin blade
like center to avoid breaking the bark
Of the stock. Several scions may be
set in one stub but the number of
branches developed should usually be
cut down to two after the old stub
is healed over. 1t is good plan to
wrap the stub with strip of waxed
cloth as soon as the grating is done.
Budding.
Young trees two or three years old
can frequently be top-worked by bud
ding in the largest limbs in midsum'
mer. The buds can seldom be set sue
cessfully on wood more than two years
old. The buds are cut from well ma
tured twigs not more than one-fourth
inch in diameter and twigs measuring
three. .sixteenths of an inch are better.

REV. 5. KIMURA !,
TELLS OF WORK
AS EVANGELIST
Central Union Congregation
Delighted With CIear-Cut
Story BY Worker

The audience which gathered In
Central Union church last Sunday
morning-an audience augmented by
a number Of Japanese visitors-heard
a nest naive and interesting life story
told with simplicity and deep feeling.
As the boyish young evangelist, Rev.
Seimatsu Kimura. stepped forward
with an appealing apology for his Eng
lish. he claimed at once the sympathy
and aloha Of his audience.
With humor and energy he sketched
the history of his education, CONVEX
sion and dedication to the work OF an
evangelist His story was unstudied,
graphic, conversational. His frequent
use of American slang at telling mo-
ments convulsed his hearers, as when
he said that on hearing of his con-
version to the Christian faith his
father fired" him out of the house.
But in spite of this familiar use OF
the yernacular, Mr.. Kimura's address
was most impressive and his enthusi-
asm for souls communicated itself to
his audience. His aim is to bring one
thousand souls in Hawaii to a knowl-
edge of Christ and his whole being Is
consecrated to the achievement Of
that purpose. When ne stamps his
foot and shakes his resciute head in
the excitement of his zeal. quivering
with the intensity of his desire to win
for his Leader. one can understand
how he has won the remarkable sue.
cess which was his in Japan and
which has followed him to these
islands.
One of Mr.. Kimura's ideals for his
converts is that they shall know the
Bible thoroughly, and 10 assist them
therein he has set the names of the
books CT the Old and New Testament
to Japanese melody, u translation
Of which he sang at the conclusion Of
his address.
