WHEN TO PRUNE THE GRAPE
Work May Be Done From Dropping of
Leaves in Fall to Swelling of
Buds In Spring.

(By u. p. HEDRICK, Massachusetts Ex-
pertinent Station.)
Grapes may be pruned from the
dropping of the leaves in the fall to
the swelling of the buds in the spring.
Pruning after sap begins to flow is
devitalizing. 1t is seldom advisable
to prune when vines are frozen. as
the brittle canes are easily broken
during handling.
Summer pruning is far less practiced
now than formerly, with a tendency
to do less and less of 1t. II is used
to remove surplus shoots and in head
ing back canes to keep them within
limits.
Very often shoots grow from weak
buds on the fruiting canes to the detri-
ment of the fruit-bearing shoots. These
weaklings should be rubbed on. So,
too, shoots often break from arms,
spurs or even the trunk where they
are not wanted. These should be re-
moved. Secondary shoots sometimes
appear on fruiting shoots, especially in
the axis of the latter; these should be
rubbed off. Here, for the most part,
summe pruning should end.

WESTERN CANADA
SEEDING FINISHED
Wheat and Other Grains Have
Had an Excellent Start.

The seeding of spring wheat was
pretty general this spring about 7th
Of April or about as early as in Illinois
and Iowa. Oats and barley followed.
Information is to hand that on first
of May all seeding was practically fin
ished. Farmers will now be busy at
their breaking, and the land for sum
mer fallow will be entered upon. Some
who did not get their land prepared
last fall, will be later than the others,
but as the spring in Western Canada
has been very open they will be only
a few days later. At the time of
writing rain would be welcome, but
at seeding time, the ground contained
a splendid lot of moisture and the
lack of rain at the present time will
not be serious. The number Of farm
ers who have gone into the raising of
cattle has been considerably in
creased, and the preparation for ex-
tensive cultivated grass pastures is
in evidence everywhere. The culti-
walton of fodder corr is being largely
entered upon in Manitoba there be-
ing upwards of 25, 1000 acres in corn.
In Saskatchewan there will be a
large increase in the area planted, and
In Alberta many of the more progress
sive farmers are taking hold of it.
The yield varies according t. the cul-
tivation it receives, and runs from
five to nine tons per acre. In some
portions of Manitoba where it has
been poor for some years, success has
been achieved in ripening and it is
expected that a variety will soon be
developed that will provide seed for
the entire West, that will at an early
date give to Western Canada a fame
for the growing of a marketable corn
equal to that it has now for the
growth of smaller cereals.
A trip through Western Canada re
veals field after field of alfalfa, the
growth of which in any portion o.
the country is now absolutely assured
When these facts are made known tt
the farmers of the orn and alfalfa
growing states, where their value a:
wealth makers is so well known, there
will be no hesitancy in taking advan
tage of the splendid gift of 100 acres
of land made by the Government o
the Dominion of Canada, where equa
opportunities are offered. Beside,
these free grant lands, there are tn
lands of some of the railway com
panies and large land companies, tina
may be had at low prices and o.
reasonable terms. During the montl
of February a large number of in
quiries were received, asking for farm
lands.
An encouraging feature of the farm
land situation in Canada is the larg'
percentage of sales made to settler
in the country who desire to increas
their holdings or to others who vii
take up farming in place of differen
occupations previously followed.-Ad

CHOICE KINDS OF POTATOES
Green Mountain is Medium Late Tu-
Der and One of Best of Early Fall
and Winter Varieties.

The Haulton Rose is one of the best
of the early potatoes either for mar
ket or for family Jse. Beauty Of He
bron is equally good, pure white flesh,
productive and ea:ly. Irish cobbler is
an early variety, a heavy cropper, flesh
white and of excellent quality. Green
Mountain is a medium-late potato, one
of the best of the early fall and win
ter varieties.
Bovee is said to be the earliest po-
tato; it is not only early, but a produc-
tive and profitable potato. 1t requires
a rich soil, heavy fertilizing and extra
culture. These are popular and profit
able varieties either for the wholesale
or for the retail market. There should
be no delay now in planting the whole
of the crop. The early and the mid
summer crop is the most profitable.
Our summers are too hot and dry for
June-planted potatoes. Select clover
and grass sod ground; thin sod ground
should have a dressing of long manure
spread over the sod and then plowed
under. If the n is well rotted
and fine, it should be spread on top Of
the plowed ground and well narrowed

TO PRODUCE SANITARY MILK
Some oId-Fashioned Farmers Con-
tinue to Use Open Pail-Brush
Cow Thoroughly Daily.

Only those back-number farmers who
either fail to profit by the lessons
taught in producing sanitary milk, or
who have never learned such lessons,
continue to milk in the old-fashioned,
open pail, into which falls filth FROM
the cows TANKS, and which allows the
milk to absorb all the odors that sur
round it.
By the use of sanitary milk pals,
dirt can be kept out of the milk, and
that is the main thing.
1t is much easier to produce pure
milk by keeping the dirt out of 1t than
to attempt to take it out after it has
fallen in.
But the sanitary milk pail alone will
not give us clean milk. The cows must
be thoroughly brushed every day, and
their udders washed and dried just be-
} fore milking, The milking must be
done in absolutely clean sheds, or in
the open, preferably on a grass plot,
and the milk removed to a clean
house. where it can be quickly cooled.
One of these things is good enough
in its way, but all must be observed
If we produce an article that is no
near" but absolutely clean.
