BIG DIVIDEND IN
PRUNING
PRUDENT

The man with an apple orchard will
make money by the careful pruning of
his trees.
An orchard survey in an Iowa coun-
ty showed that it paid to prune trees
every year; that the orchards pruned
annually gave average net returns of
more than 1925 an acre, whereas Or
chards pruned occasionally or not at
all gave return Of slightly less than
500 an acre.
There are many unpruned trees in
Minnesota that need attention. The
pruning, however, should be moder-
ate. The trees have dead wood, the
tops are filed with crossing and close
ly paralleled branches, and they are
often tall and scraggly. Such trees
should have the dead wood carefully
cut out and a few Of the worst de-
fects remedied this year. In the next
two years more of the dead wood
should be cut out. In short, the prun-
ing should be spread over two or more
years.

BUSINESS FARMER TESTS HIS
SEED

The business farmer Of today tests
his seed grain. In farming, as in ev-
cry other business, elements Of chance
are being removed as fully as posi-
BILE.
After the farmer has selected his
seed grain by the use Of the tanning
mill, he should make tests for purity
and termination. If he is not pre-
pared to do this, he should communi-
cate with the Minnesota Seed Labora-
tory, University Farm, St. Paul.
The only safe thing is to remove
elements Of chance by selecting good
seed, and by testing for purity and
terminating power.

MATINEE IDEAL
FOR BASEBALL.

The score was to 4 and the sun was
slowly setting in the west when Clyde
! Mcbride came to the plate. Few of the
crowd noticed the batter, and the only
cries in the grandstand that were heard
was the insistent. Move on in front
there, and 'let us out, please" The
fans had apparently lost interest in the
game, and We're seemingly bent on getting
home to their belated dinners
Suddenly a roar rose from the right
field bleachers whose occupant had nos
deserted the game-M Mcbride had singled
Sharply to right field
Edison Hemingway approached the plate
and the pushing and jostling of the out
pouring crowd slackened somewhat but
still many persons were leaving the
grounds and these stopped and stampeded
back to the enclosures as another roar
announced that Hemingway had singled
through the box to center field.
By this time the crowd were on their
feet and throwing cushions all over the
field. Umpire O'Toole called time while
the police sought to quiet the fans. After
time, amid a deafening din, Pitcher
Gudger started to pitch to Captain Roy
ELAN, who was primed to make hit
and win the game. After tire balls and
two strikes had been called ELAN hit
a savs ge liner to Gudger, who was un-
able TO field the ball in time to get the
shortstop at first, and the bases were
full with none out. 1t was then that
bedlam broke loose
