BEST CROPS IN AN ORCHARD
Considerable Number of the More
Progressive Fruit Men Are Civ
ing Up the Practice.

Most farmers grow some crops be-
tween the trees for few years at
least. Potatoes, beans, cabbage and
corn are used extensively. The tree
rows are kept thoroughly cultivated.
1t is not uncommon 10 see hay crop
between the rows, but 1t rs an unusual
sight to see a young orchard planted
and kept for any time within the sod.
A good many OF the more progress
sive fruit men, who have kept rec
ords of expenses and sales on these
various crops interplanted, have come
to doubt the advisability of growing
field crops ia an orchard. and unless
it is necessary for financial reasons,
a considerable number are giving up
the practice and simply keep all the
soil between the rows thoroughly cul-
tivated except while cover crops are
growing.

EASY TO RAISE STRAWBERRY
Small Patch viii Produce More Fruit
Than Average Family Can USE
Plants Are Hardy.

A patch of strawberries, two or
three rods square, will produce more
fruit than a family Of eight or ten can
use. The work is just as easy and JUST
as simple as growing tomatoes, cab
bage or any other crop, says Frank ID.
Beatty. the strawberry specialist in
Farm and Home. Strawberry plants
are set just the same as tomato or
cabbage plant and after strawberry
plants are set. there is little &c do
but cultivate and give them an oeca'
sional hoeing, just the same as for
vegetables.
Strawberry plants are the hardest
OF all plants and succeed in all soils
and under all climatic conditions. The
chief essentials are strong. fruitful
plants. good drainage and plenty OF
manure.

JUST. WHY MUSICIANS wEpT
IN the Absence Of Newspapers Mu-
steal Critic, Star Reporter Wrote
Up Pianoforte Recital.

The musical critic was unable to
attend the pianoforte recital, but the
star reporter on the paper allowed
that he could do the thing easy
enough. And this is how he did it:
"Herr Diapason's recital last eve
ming at Acoustic hall was the most
recherche event of the musical sea-
son. Herr Diapason is a master in
cantilever, and both in his automo-
bile and in his tour de force he
wrought wonders of tonic stimula-
ton. He was especially potent in
his dolce far niente passages, and in
his diminuendo crescendo appoggia-
tura he displayed chronological skill
that was simply wonderful.
"There was also a marvellous mu-
sicianly abandon in the mute bars,
the instrument in these parts of the
score being forcefully impressive in
silent fortissimo. But it was per-
haps in andante capriccioso that he
excelled himself. Here he discov-
cred a coloratura, bravura and an
ensemble that fairly electrified his
audience.
"Herr Diapason, it is true, occa-
sionally erred in an overponderosity
of rutabaga, and again in too lam
bent lustspiel; but these lapses we're
hardly noticeable in his rendering of
cantabilious intermezzo. The recital,
upon the whole, was a marvellous ex-
hibition of poca hontas Instruments
ton and incandescent cavatina."
"Slug A." who takes lessons, said
there was something wrong about it,
although he couldn't say exactly
what, and the managing editor, upon
looking the critique over, was free
to admit that it was all Greek to
him; still he said it seemed to read
J all right, so far as he could discover
to the contrary, and it was quite in
the line of the regular critics com.
| pOsition-more luminous, indeed
and he did not see why it shouldn't
be printed. 1t was lucky, he said
that they had SO able an all-round

PRUNING IN SUMMER SEASON
Work Must BE Done After Terminal
Buds Have misunderstanding
Branches Should Go.

(By w. c. EDMUNDsoN. Idaho Ex-
pertinent Ststion.)
Nearly every fruit grower has his
own particular plan or ideal for shap-
ing his trees. The same type of tree
is not grown by all orchardists. and
should not be, since each typo Is es.
pecially adapted. for certain condi-
tons.
Most orchard men practice winter
pruning, as winter is the time to
prune to shape the tree. II heavy
pruning is done II can be accom-
plished in the early spring or dor
mant season with the least injury to
the tree. Summer and winter prun-
ing have their particular. advantages.
l wish to take up one point in con-
nection with summer pruning and that
is the pruning of bearing trees for in
creased color.
In some fruit-growing sections the
apples do not take on sufficient color
to make extra fancy fruit. We have
found that under such conditions by
practicing summer pruning we can in
crease the color from 20 to 40 per
cent.
Summer pruning cannot be done any
time the grower happens to have time
to do the work, but must be done at a
definite time. That time is after the
terminal buds have set.
At this time the trees have stopped
growth for the season and the wood
begins to ripen up for winter. II
pruncd earlier the trees will send out
a new growth after forming a rosette
at each cut, and this late grow tn will
often winter kill.
Summer pruning should not remove
the heavy branches but should take
out the interlocllng branches and
about one-half the present season s
growth. This oncns up the tree and
admits the sunlight at the rlpenine
