THE THlRE LARGEST
 CROP ls PREDICTED
14,266,000 Bales of Cotton From 35,994,000 Acres of Govern ment Estimate of Cotton for This Year.

Washington, July 1.-High prices of cotton and cottonseed has encour- aged farmers in the cotton belt to in- crease their acreage this year sub stantially over last years area re- sulting in a total of 35,994,00 acres, according to the official estimate of the Department of Agriculture an- nonnced today.
 The condition of the crop, S1.1 per cent of normal on July 25, indicates that the total production of lint this year will be about 14,266,000 equiva- lent 500-p pound bales, the Bureau of Crop Estimates calculates. That yield would place this years crop the third largest ever grown, being smaller than those of 1911 and 1914.
 In a statement reviewing the acre age and the condition of the crop, the Department of Agriculture Bureau of Crop Estimates said:
 Departments Statement
 "Acreage-Ther has been gener- al increase in the acreage planted to cotton over the entire belt. There Is a decided increase in the northern por- tion of the belt west of the Mississip- pi river and in the states of Louisiana and Mississippi These states, long boil weevil strongholds, are gradually recovering their acreage. Several hundred thousand acres in south Texas will produce no cotton this year on account of extreme drouth which has lasted for more than six months. The heavy producing Mississippi river bottom lands (both sides) has heavy increase, partly accounted for by new lands going into cultivation. Ala bama and Florida are suffering from 'weevil panic and there is not much increase in the acreage in the infested territory. In Georgia and the Caro- linas there is a substantial increase. Cotton is the main money crop of the South. The staple and seed are bring ing high prices, and this has encour- aged farmers all over the cotton belt to increase their acreage substantially over last year.
 Condition of Crop.
 "Condition-The chief complaints this month are boil weevils and wet weather. Weevils are numerous over much of the cotton area of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama and in a smaller area in Arkansas and Georgia. In sections where there has been too much rain in the weevil in fested area the prospect is for serious damage from this pest. In northwest Texas and western Oklahoma severe hail and wind storms did local dam age. The northern portion of the belt from Oklahoma to North Carolina and many points in the interior have had too much rain. Some sections have had too much cool weather Outside of weevil damage and a few lice there is little complaint of insect pests, Stands are better than usual, but in the Carolinas and Georgia there is much irregularity in the size of the plants because of dry weather in May. A small quantity of fertilizer, gener- ally of low grade, was used this year, Taking the belt as a whole the crop will average at least two weeks late"

so interferes with another one that it
must be cut OFF, then do it. l have in
jured more trees by trimming them in
the earlier days of my plum raising
than from any other cause.
Spray the trees just before the buds
open with lime-sulphur one to ten, thin
after the fruit has set with linies

pounds arsenate Of lead to the bar
rel, which will be beneficial to destroy
the brown rot. This spraying may BE
repeated every ten days, but must not
be used within four or five weeks Of
ripening Of the nuit.
Cut down or dig up old trees when
they have lost their vigor and set out
new ones, Dig a hole as big as a bush
ell basket at least in which to set the
tree. Put some good rich loan in the
hole, and half-peck of wood ashes
turned in after the small roots are
covered will be found beneficial.

pruning is done, the effect on tree
growth will be the same. However,
there is a certain advantage in delay
ing the pruning until late winter.
There is always danger of a certain
amount of winter killing Of twigs and
smaller limbs. Pruning after this dan
ger is over will obviate any necessity
Of pruning twice. Then, too, where

dered and sometimes prevented.
In case trees are making too vigor-
Gus a growth, it is sometimes desir-
able to prune them in summer. How
ever, summer pruning, to be effective,
must take place just after the terminal
buds have completed their growth.
This is usually during the latter part
Of June. Later pruning simply starts
new wood growth and defeats the
pruner's objects.
These general principles of pruning
apply to all fruit trees of all classes
and ages.

BEST TIME TO PRUNE TREES
Delay Work Until Danger Of Winter
Killing Is Past-Sometlmes Desir-
able TO Prune in Summer.

Questions are often asked about
the desirability of early winter prun+
ing of orchard trees. Some people
have a notion that early pruning
causes more watersprouts and heavy
growth than will be the case if the
pruning is delayed until late winter.
Others are fearful of cutting limbs
after the sap begins to flow or after
buds have started
The horticultural department at the
Ohio College Of Agriculture states that
as a general rule winter pruning pro-
notes wood growth, while summer
pruning checks growth of trees. Il
makes no difference, then, at what
time during the dormant season the
