PROPER PRUNING OF

er pruning of II consists OF four dis.
tinct operations. First. remove some
Of the superfiuous shoots, In order that
there may not be too many canes to
n hill. Second, during the summer the
buds OF the remaining shoots should
be nipped back in order to induce a
stocky growth of the laterals. Third,
the laterals should be headed back the
following spring. Fourth. all old canes
should be cut out after they have pro.
duced one crop of berries.
As n general rule, from three to six
shoots to the hill is sufficient. accord.
ing to the variety and fertility OF the
land. The shoots which are to be re-
moved should be cut out as soon as
they have started growth. so that all
OF the food may go into those shoots
to be left TO produce canes. As soon
as the plants reach q height OF "a to
2s inches. they should be nipped back
by pinching on the tip OF the shoot
or bud. This can be done with the
fingers or with = small pair of prun.
Ing shears. II is very important that
the shoots be pinched on as soon us
they reach the proper height. rather
than let them grow to . greater height

they are massed by the thousands on
the bark of either the trunk or the
twigs. They are all injurious to 3
greater or less extent, though the
property owner may not be aware of
the danger.
There may be several new kinds
which, if not found out and identified,
might prove to be very injurious. The
circular scale on the trunk and
branches of your red naples may be
the common maple scale; it may,
however, prove to be scale new to
science. The white scale found on

scale, but it might be one which, If
not discovered and controlled, may
become as dangerous as the San Jose
scale.

THE RoUMAN1AN CAMPAIGN

The ability of the Teuton-Bulgar
forces to penetrate Roumania is, on the
surface, rather curious. Roumania took
such a long time in making up her mind
to fight that she had ample time to
equip her army and ample opportunity
to fortify her Bulgarian frontiers. But
she made only feeble resistance to the
first Bulgar onslaught, and, apparently
unconcerned about this theater of war,
calmly proceeded with her Transylvan-
ian campaign.
It is probably fair to assume that
Bucharest is in no danger. Persons
who claim to know something of the
diplomatic doings of the allies, say that
Roumania s course was shaped by poll
tical reasons. Roumania desires Tran
sylvania, .and for many generations the
Russians have wished to obtain posses
sion of Constantinople Russia decreed
that her own armies must proceed
against Bulgaria and fight their way
through to the Turkish capital. Rou-
mania would like Pennsylvania? Very
good. Let her take that territory and
it is hers forever Moreover, an inva-
sion of Hungary is likely to end in the
dissolution Of the Austro-Hungarian
duality.
Such is the situation outlined by the
diplomats, and their theory is a
plausible one. The Teuton-Bulgar army
struck harder and more quickly than
the Russians expected it would There
is no doubt of that. But when the
Russo-Roumanian operations get well
under way, the Bulgarian offensive will
very probably stop. The most impor-
tant thing is for Russia and her ally to
check the Bulgars before the latter are
able to seize and fortify the Danube
bridgehead.
The Bulgarians are now beset from
the rear. The British, French, Italians,
Serbs, etc., in Macedonia have launched
a strong offensive movement. which, if
it develops successfully, will place Bull
garia in supremely unpleasant posi-
ton. She is attacked from the north
and from the south, and as the two army
lines come closer together Bulgaria will
be squeezed out of the war.

KEEP GUNS
AWAY FROM
SMALL BOYS

Sentiment toward hunting seems to
be undergoing a decided change in
America. A few years ago no one
thought of protesting against the plac-
ing of a gun in the hands of a small
boy except on the ground of danger to
humans. Now the argument is fre-
quently seen that hunting tends to
brutalize the boy

PROHIBITION HOPES

The Prohibitionists have adopted
new war cry: :" A million votes for pro-
hibition."
If they should poll half a million
however, they would go around, after
election, with beaming faces.
For they have never got much above
the quarter-million mark. The figures
of their recent presidential polls are as
follows: 1900 (Woolley), 208,914; 1904
(swallow), 258,84o; 1908 (Chafn) 253,-
$40; 1912 (Chafn), 2O7, 1928.
This year they are relying on the fact
that their presidential candidate is an
ex-governor. When Governor st. John
ran in 1884 he increased the party vote
from ten thousand to 151 ,8O9.
They also hope that some of the dis
affected Progressives will vote for
Hanly and Landrith. Perhaps they
will. But when the figures are all in
it will be surprising if we find they are
much above the best cold-water record
of the past.
