Disbudding and Summer Pruning.
Disturbing and pinching back of the
young shoots of fruit trees are the only
hope Of those who have neglected to
prune properly during the fall and win
ter and yet wish to control somewhat
the shape and fruiting habits of the
trees for the coming season. On the
other hand, many expert growers who
have properly attended to pruning,
study their trees carefully in the sum-
mer and by disbudding and pinching
are able still further to control their
growth. Some experts starting with
very young trees rely almost wholly
on disbudding and pinching, because
they say that it is more logical to di.
rect the strength of the tree than to
allow it to waste it's energies in form.
ing wood which only has to be cut off
by a pruning knife. These processes,
however call for even greater care
than ordinary pruning because, OF
course, it is easier to injure a growing
tree than to deal with dormant one.
In the case Of older trees, however,
disbudding and pinching, Of course, are
not substitutes for pruning and getting
rid of old wood. Once tree has es-
tablished old wood, disbudding simply
controls the development of new
shoots and the saw or pruning hook
alone will dispose Of interfering
branches or old growth.
Disturbing should begin when the
young buds are large enough to be
pinched out with the thumb and finger.
The process should be repeated rather
buds at time. The buds which are
left should remain where they will
grow up and close up the open tree
spaces and bring about a more com.
ticed on fruit trees grown under glass,
where the branches must necessarily
be kept within very small area and
where conservation Of the vigor of the
tree is of great Importance. Disbud'
ding is often practiced with advantage
on apples, peaches, pears and other
fruit trees and vines.
Summer pruning is similar in meth
cd and results in the control of growth
without the removal of foliage. 1t con.
sists in pinching off the extreme termi-
nal buds Of the growing shoots, result.
ing in checking and redirecting the
growth without injury to the vitality
of the plant. The injuries sustained
by a rude and careless destruction of
foliage are we'll eXemplified in the
management of grapes where the sum
mer pruning is delayed until it is con-
sidered necessary to cut from II to 20
inches from the tip of each shoot, so
checking the plants that further
growth will be slow and the fruit will
fail to mature. Full and perfect matur.
ity of fruit depends upon full growth
of healthy, mature foliage.

and disbudding may be secured by

All through his delirium Ralston
was family conscious of woman's
face bending over him, with look of
compassion that TRANSPORTED it. Again
and again, as he came weakly back
from the fog of delirium into conscious
ness, he would realize her presence
and feel the cool hand on his burning
forehead.
When at last he opened his eyes to
the realization of his position he saw
that the face had been largely the
Pigment of his dreams. 1t was a pleas
ant, motherly face, the face of a WON
an of thirty-fve, perhaps; but it was
not the face he had imagined.
Are you feeling better?" asked a
soft voice.
Ralston tried to answer, but he was
too weak to speak. And, lying there,
he began to remember the circum-
stances of the accident
He had gone West three years be-
fore to take up the homestead miles
away from the city, nursing in his
heart the remembrance of the girl
who had Tilted him and ruined his
life. He had abandoned everything,
his friends, his interests. Gradually

The cost of feed can be consider

More than 200 pounds of oil-soaked
rags, wood, and shavings were recently
ignited in steel passenger car by the
testing department of one of the east

what effect flames would have upon

burned with great heat, but without
causing distortion or serious injury to

Yet, with her woman's intuition, she
postponed the matter until Ralston
was convalescent, till he was able to
hobble about the house. Yet each
knew that the other was acting part,
and that it was only matter of time
until the words were spoken.
Did you know that l had a daugh-
ter?" she asked him one day.
"a daughter!" unused Ralston. He
had not thought of that. Somehow, it
seemed impossible-this sweet-faced,
youngish woman, with a child.
"She has been living in the city
until | could make home for her."
continued Mrs. Symon. She has been
here once or twice, and she is COM
ing to live with me next week" She
laid her hand on his arm. Il want you
to wait till you have seen her." she
continued.
Ostensibly the words meant that
Ralston was to postpone his departure
until Lillian had come; but, actually,
he knew they meant that until then
nothing was to be said of marriage.
Yet it was with difficulty that he
could restrain himself, for his love
had again given Mrs. Symon the as
poets of the woman in his dream, and
he felt that he could with her attain
that peace of soul which he had lost.
Lillian is coming tomorrow" Mrs.
Symon said one day. will you take
the horse to the depot and meet herr"
and your"
"Oh, l shall not have time if l am
to get things in order for her." an
swered Mrs. Symon with a little
laugh.
Ralston drove to the depot, and
presently fresh-faced young girl got
down from the train and glanced
about her. Ralston went up and stood
staring foolishly at her. 1t was the
girl of his vision. So she had been
there, had seen him while he lay in
his delirium!
She knew him, too; she put out her
hand, and mechanically he clasped it.
He helped her into the carriage and
they whirled away. And though not
word had been spoken Ralston felt his
heart leap up with ecstacy She was
his! He blessed his stars that moth
ing had been said to the mother She
knew-Lilian knew. He felt that with
perfect instinct. They we're born for
each other, each was destined for the
other.
And the mother was forgotten, and
two young people drove along alb
sorbed in one another. Their glances,
at first shy, became more ardent.
Ralston put out his hand and closed
it on the girls warm fingers.
do you understand" he STAN
mered.
She nodded shyly.
1T was you, then, whom I saw in
my dreams?"
She nodded again. And suddenly
he drew her to him and pressed his
lips to hers. And all pretense seemed
lud1crously absurd in the face OF this
elemental and overmastering passion
that had sprung up between them.
In silence they drove the last stage
Of the journey. When at last they
stopped before the cabin they de-
scended like people in dream. Mrs.
Symon was sitting in front Of the
door; she had seen and interpreted
the look upon each face.
AS they went in she said in low
voice:
Are you not glad that I told you
to waltz"
Eyes, am glad" he answered clip
lessly. Then, with a sudden pity:
And you? And your"
"Oh, II" she asked, with shrug of
her shoulders. Il have had my day,
you know. Besides, am the mother"

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

SyMlocal applications, as they @cannd
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that Is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness Is caused by an infiamed cond-
ton of the mucous lining Of the Eusta-
chan Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed.
Deafness is the result, and unless the in
fiammation can be taken ont and this
tube restored to its normal condition.
hearing Will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out Of ten are caused by Catarrh.

KANSAS MIXTURE KILLS

Cut worms are likely to give trou-
BILE on sod land. The moths prefer
to lay eggs on grass, and for this
reason the larvae resulting from
those eggs are always more numer-
Gus on land that has been occupied
by grass. The worms do most Of
their feeding ut night. The gardener
usually sees the results Of their work

plants cut off near the ground.

Of eliminating cut worms is to pois
