WORK ON MESA SEWER
 ID BE STARTED SOON

Bids for the work of constructing the new sewer, will soon be adVer- tised. The bonds are being prepared for signature, and as soon as this is finished the money will be available for use. It is understood several con tractors will bid for the work.
 The question of the depth at which the drainage pipes should be placed is still a matter of controversy. There are many who contend there will be no inducement to build a large. hotel here without a drainage system that will take in the basement; and there are other persons who believe that sewer system placed few feet un der the surface will amply provide for all of the necessary drainage.

CULTIVATION OF AN ORCHARD
Stirring Of Soil Helps to Conserve
Moisture Young Trees Given
Longer Period of Growth.

The apple growers are nearly all
practicing clean cultivation in their
orchards, says a writer in Indiana
Farmer. This indicates that cultiva'
ton Is the quickest method OF bring
ing young trees to bearing age and
perhaps 1t is the best method to pur'
sue in gaining annual crops. From my
own experience and knowledge gained
from growers in all parts of the coun-
try. am convinced that apple trees
set on rolling or nearly level land will
come into bearing two or three years
earlier If given annual cultivation.
Itmakes very little difference wheth-
er the land be Intercepted or not.
provided sufficient fertilizing material
is added to grow the extra plants. The
stirring of the soil seems to help In
conserving the moisture and gives the
young trees longer period of growth
each year than they have under sod
methods. II is well to remember that

the summer to afford the roots some

PRUNE RASPBERRY CANES
Object Should Be to Grow Berries, Not
Woody Growth--CIeanlng Out
Destroys Many Insects.

Though the two main varieties of
raspberry, black and red need slight
ly different treatment, the time and
manner of pruning are greatly similar
with both kinds.
The blackcaps do not put out new
growth from the root stalks, as the
led varieties do, but new plants are
started from tips of the old plants.
These are bent over and covered light
ly in August. after which they send
out rootlets and can be taken up the
following spring as new plants. to be
set out where they are needed.
These new plants need to be pinched
back to height of Is inches. so that
they will throw out more lateral
branches. These are the branches
which bear fruit, and 1t is very impor-
tant that they be numerous.
In addition to this first pruning, the
winter or early spring pruning should
be done to get rid of the old canes
