FALL SPRAYING IS FAVORED
When Possible Select Warm Day for
Operation, as insects Then Crawl
Out for Sunlight.

After all rotten apples, pruned
limbs and other refuse have been
cleared up about the orchard the trees
should be given a thorough spraying.
If possible, one should choose a
warm day for the operation. SO most
of the insect pests crawling out to life
in the sunlight will be exposed to the
action of the spraying solution.
Special attention should be given old
knots and rough and rotten spots
about the trees, as in these places the
fruit pests deposit their eggs for next
seasons crop and at the same time
many of these pests themselves are
harboring in safe retreat till winter is
over.
There are several reasons for this
fall spraying. 1t not only destroys
the insect pests. but their eggs, also,
which have been laid.
After the spraying, the trees will be
left healthy and clean and free from
the pests while they are developing
their next seasons fruit crop. Another
light spraying next spring will not
come amiss, but this fall spraying will
insure the work being done-not neg
lected next spring, when the rush sea
son is on and the field turns the farm
er's attention from the orchard.

GLTANINGS
COVER CROPS FOR MULCAING
One Of the Best Means Of Protecting
Roots Of Apple and Cherry Trees
Keeps the Soil Moist.

The relation of soil moisture and
soil cover to root killing of apples and
cherry stocks has been studied at the
experiment stations. The results
showed that straw mulch, or a cover
crop that mats down like straw
mulch. tends to prevent freezing and
alternate freezing and thawing. and
thus reduces injuries to the roots.
Any method of culture that leaves
the ground perfectly bare in the fall,
thus fayoring deep freezing and al
ternate freezing and thawing. is not
to be recommended where root killing
is at all common. cover crop is one
Of the best means for protecting the
roots of trees. Likewise, any means
of culture that leaves the ground moist
in fall has an advantage over methods
that leave the ground very dry.
In this regard, clean cultivation
might be expected to be ahead of cover
crops. The best allaround method OF
culture for young orchards is thor
ough cultivation in early summer. fol-
lowed by a cover crop in the fall, so
far as tests covering only few years
can prove any method best. A mulch
Of straw is known to keep the soil
moist during the summer, and it also
protects tender roots in winter, but its
use will surely increase winter injury
to tender tops of trees by prolonging
fall growth. Besides a mulch induces
a shallow root development, which
may result disastrously in later years,
and its use is out of the question in
large orchards.
Thorough cultivation protects trees
against drought as well as mulching,
and keeps the roots from forming near
the surface of the ground When cul-
tiyation is given in early summer, all
that is necessary to furnish winter pro-
lection is to stop cultivating in mid
summer, grow cover crop (weeds be-
ing better than nothing), which will
dry the ground in fall, causing the new
wood growth to ripen early in prep
. aration for winter and which will, by
holding the snow out by mating down
to form mulch, protect tender roots
during winter. Good cultivation in
early summer can often be given
young trees by growing some culti-
yated crop in the orchard.

BUSINESS MEN ARE JOINING m
THE PROSPERITY CHORUS.

1t is true that hope deferred max
eth the heart SICK or something to
that effect, according to an eminent
authority who was unquestionably
more or less right about 1t, and it is
also true that the optimisfs have been
sighting better times for several
years. The prosperity train has been
scheduled to pull in and has been
momentarily expected for many moons
but about the time the crowd gathers
at the station to witness its arrival,
the man comes out and posts bulle-
lin announcing that it is delayed. But
all this is no reason for believing that
the train has jumped the track and
been busted into smithereens and
consequently will never come. II is
fact, as our sagacious friend ST might
observe. that as far back into the misty
past as tradition and history extends
good times have always succeeded
periods Of depression and il would
seem to be safe TO assume that this
sort of thing will continue to the end
OF the chapter.
Within. the past few weeks the big
business men of the country have becn
bearing down hard en- the optimistic
notes until their basso profundo tones
are beginning to swell up in a grand
chorus. There must be something to
it. For one thing the stock exchange
