wood is removed, the tree still seems
too thick, some thinning may be done,
but too much wood should not be re-
moved at one time. More satisfactory
results will be obtained II three years

into satisfactory shape. II possible,
however, some Of the center branches
should be taken out to give the sun
light an opportunity to get down into
the tree and color the fruit.
"As the tree grows In its natural
state, there is a balance between the
root system and the crown, or that
portion above the ground. When O
large amount Of wood is taken from
the tree, as in the case Of heavy prun'
ing, this balance is disturbed. The
root system remains the same, but
there is not enough wood above ground
to utilize the plant food which the
roots have stored; consequently, in
the following season a large number OF
watersprouts will be put out by the
tree.
"n the tree has been high-headed
with most of the bearing wood at the
top, and this you have removed in
heading the tree back, it will be neces.
sary to start some new bearing wood
in the lower part Of the tree. This can
be done by making use of the water
sprouts. Unless they are too thick, II
is well to leave most Of them for the
first year, but they should be cut back
to three or four buds. By this method
you will provide leaf surface enough
to take care of the plant food which
the roots are sending up, and the cut.

cause them to develop fruit spurs
Thus the bearing wood may be
changed to the lower part of the tree
'"The second year the undesired
waterSprOuts may be removed. Those
which you wish to save for permanent
bearing wood should be left about II
inches apart. The watersprouts which
later appear and are not wanted, may
be rubbed off when they are small
buds. Clipping the ends Of the
branches will force out new growth
further back ON the limb and will also
have a tendency to make the branch
thicken, thus enabling it better to sup
port the weight of a crop Of apples
Every branch should be cut as close
as possible to the limb from which II
is being removed. The greatest care
should be taken not to disturb any
more Of the fruit spurs than neces
sary as it takes a long time for these

CONTROL OF CLOVER

Light Pasturing viii Dispose Of

The Pennsylvania department Of
agriculture has received several in

eastern counties about a worm work.
ing upon the clover. The specimens
submitted with these letters show that
the damage is being done by the larvae
of the clover leaf weevil.
As yet there Is no successful meth
cd of controlling this pest, but the fol-
lowing methods will ALLEVIATE the trOu-
BILE to some extent.
Lightly pasturing the clover will dis
pose Of many Of the insects, for they
will either be eaten by the stock or
be killed by tramping. Lightly clip
ping the clover with the moving ma
chine will also help, but it has the dis
advantage that it is possible for the
worms to live some time or until new
growth has started, by feeding upon
the clippings that have fallen to the
ground.

WORKS OF ART FROM EUROPE
American Collectors Gathering q Vast
Number Of Them as q Result
Of the War.

An authority on antiques and old
furniture estimates that within the
last four months more than $6,OO0,OOO
worth of furniture and objects dart
have been sold by European owners
and dealers to Americans. And II Is
expected that the process furniture
auction every week in London and
Paris for the benefit Of American col
lectors-will go on through the re-
mainder of the war and after 1t, un-
dOubtedly doubling this figure.
Pinched nOblemen and others posses
sing old houses in Europe are clearing
them Of their hefrloOms, which Ameri-
cans are buying and transporting to
this land of the free. EurOpe's extrem-
lty, in this regard, Is Americas OppOr.
tunlty; and American houses, In city
and country, are filling up with beauti-
full old furniture, pictures and decOra-
tiOns. In a sense, Europe is paying for
bOmbshells with old furniture, for the
gentry are heavily taxed to buy the
shells, and when the shells are paid
for the Americans, who sell them, put
the money, to this remarkable extent,
into furniture, fabrics and objects Of
art. It is a curious process. Bomb
shells have no intrinsic value, no value
Of use; they represent mere destruc-
ton. Nor does antique furniture
bought at a price far beyond its mere
value for the purpose Of sitting
down upo ! possess intrinsic worth.
A chair for which "a is paid may be
exactly as good for that purpose as a
rare Chippendale worth $1,000. So
the process is an exchange of luxuries
the luxury Of death for the luxury
Of refinement. But how vastly to the
advantage of America it is--that we,
in return for, say, $12,OOOOOO worth"
Of engines of destruction, which may
be razing' European towns to the
ground, should scatter through all our
homes Of wealth the most beautiful
furniture that the world ever pro-
duced.-BostOn Transcript.

District Court of Chicago. before Judge
Carpenter and a federal jury, the jury
found the American Medical Associa-

as a "nOstrum."
This is a vindlcation Of the medicine
and a proof that 1t has merit, which
was recognized by jury after a trial
Of three months, one Of the longest
civil cases on record.
Many doctors and chemists testified
on both sides and the evidence totaled

KEEPING UP THE MILK FLOW
SiIage, Grain and Hay Should Be
Fed to Cows When Pastures
Begin 20 Run Down.

In order that best results may be
secured, silage, grain and hay should
be fed to dairy cows, now that the
pasture fields are furnishing less feed.
Corn is cheap and efficient addition to
grass, if the pastures are dry when the
corn is green. If the milk flow once
goes down it is almost impossible to
raise it again before the next freshen-
ing period. If good barn is used less
feed will be required and better re-
suits will be secured.

fruit is the breakfast Of the average
person. 1t is the meal which most
housewives complain about the often
est, being hard to give variety.
Grapes are one Of the fruits most
enjoyed in the fall and are most
wholesome fruit; apples, pears and
peaches all have a wholesome acid
very beneficial to the digestion.
Plain boiled rice makes a welcome
breakfast cereal; omelets of various
kinds give a change from the every.
day shell-coOked, pOached or fried egg
A most appetizing method Of serving
eggs is to drop them into individual
ramekins, cover with cream, dot with
bits Of butter and season with salt
and pepper; place In the oven in q
dish of hot water and bake until the
eggs are set.
Where fresh mackerel is obtained
no more tasty dish can be- offered than
broiled mackerel or the fish backed In
cream. Place it in a dripping pan
with a little water, skin side down
and place in the hot oven; when the
water has evaporated pour over the
flsh a cupful Of good cream; heat
through and serve, adding the season
ings at the last, not to curdle the
cream, although that need not entirely
spoil the dish, but it does detraet from
ltS annearance
Chops, liver and bacon, sausages Of
various kinds, are all meats used fol
breakfast. Only a small portion should
be served, as it is much better for the
health to eat meat but once day and
that at the heavy meal, or dinner.
Hot breads are liked for breakfast
and griddle cakes the year round
never seem to lose their popularity
For the Sunday breakfast 1t is wise
to have an entire change. As 1t is q
meal Of more leisure than everyday
breakfasts, it may be a little more
elaborate.
A fruit that is subacid Is best t.
serve in the morning; a cereal with
cream is given, though the practice d
serving acid fruits and cereals with
cream is quite general.

New Fish Bait Declared Good.

The United States bureau of fish
cries reports that on the last cruise
of the Fish Hawk in Chesapeake bay
samples of grayfish meat, put up in
brine, were distributed among crab
fishermen and dealers, to test it's value
and the possibility of introducing it as
a substitute for some of the bats now
on the market. Fishermen who have
tried the grayfish say that it is a very
good bait.
