Of fruit trees dying. DR.. II. II. Forbes
director Of the Arizona agricultural

though your fruit trees were affected
with root rot. which attacks the trees
mt distance below the surface Of the
soil and works up TO within few
inches Of the surface. when the trees,
being deprived Of their root system,
suddenly die. This disease is favored
by over.irrIgntion nnd lack Of cultivn'
ton, these being conditions which re-
suit In insufficient acration OF the soil.
Inasmuch. therefore. as root rot
thrives with insufficient acration. the
best preventive measure In TO npply

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Monte Vista, Colo.-The first annual
potato show given by the Farmers

crop in this section this year has been
far beyond anything ever known be-

successful methods used, as well as to
celebrate their success in the growing
OF their crops. During the exhibition
a number of farmers publicly burned
the mortgages on their land. this
years crop having enabled them to
pay off all Indebtedness.
Some Of the yields reported by indi.
vidual farmers were painted on
streamers and posted in conspicuous
places at the potato show. For In.
stance. William Macy and sons report.
ed gross return Of $423.10 from one
measured acre. William Bowsher
cleared $4,000 from 100 acres.
About 10000 carloads of potatoes
have been shipped already from Mon

How to rejuvenate an old orchard
20 a. to get real money out Of II,
was told By DR.. J.. b. Merrill Of the
entomology department Of the agricul-
tural college at q recent meeting Of
the Kansas State Horticultural society
In Topeka. Doctor Merrill said in
part:
THE nrst steps to be taken In re-
juvenating an old orchard depend
upon the time Of the year when the
work u to be started. II In the
winter, pruning will come first, but
II In the spring. spraying. It IL bet
ter. however. to start with pruning.
~ this will greatly simplify the spray
Ing which is to follow.
"Every tree 10 an individual prob
lem. There are q few general prin-
ciples upon which man may work,
but the solution Of the matter u D.

Judgment 1t 10 well to keep In mind
D general idea as to the kind Of tree
you desire finally to get. The presence
Of q large number Of dead, diseased
and broken limbs which must be re-
moved will upset plans to q certain
extent, but this can be largely over
come BY eventually forcing new growth
lnto these vacant places In the tree.
"Every man has his own idea as
to the best way to prune q tree. An
effective method Is to begin at the
lower part aud work your way up
ward. removing all dead. broken. dis
eased and overlapping limbs on your
way up. After reaching the top Of the
tree, you are In q position to plan how
to make . tree out Of what 10 left. II
the tree 10 old, the chances are that
It u high and therefore impossible to
spray thoroughly. The limbs are usu-
ally too weak and slender to support
many apples and It would cost more
than the apples were worth to pick
them, II there happened to be any.
Therefore. while you are In the top
Of the tree, head back these high
limbs to such a height that they may
be easily sprayed and that fruit can
be picked economically.

are to color well. II, after worthless
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
are allowed In which to put the tree
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 .
large amount Of wood is taken from
the tree. as In the case Of heavy prun.
Ing, this balance Ii disturbed. The
root system remains the same. but
there u not enough wood above ground
to utilize the plant food which the
roots have stored; consequently. In
the following season q large number Of
watersprouts will be put out by the
tree.
IF 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, II 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. 1t
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
ting back Of the watersprouts will
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 l.
Inches apart. The watersprouts which
later appear and are not wanted, may
be rubbed on when they are small
buds. Clipping the ends Of the
branches will force out new growth
further back on the limb aud will also
have tendency to make the branch
thlcken. thus enabling II better to sup
port the weight Of crop Of apples.
Every branch should be cut us 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 us 1t takes q long time for these
to develop"
