Pruning BIackberries.

It is best to prune blackberries in
Ythe fall. Usually only five or six canes
from each root should be allowed to
grow, the others being pulled out while
they are still small. When the canes
sere two and one-half to three feet
high the tips should be cut or pinched
back two or three inches. This checks
upward growth and many laterals
push out These laterels bear the fruit
the following season.

Back in the boom days Of railroad
building many county in full many
a middle West and western state
voted hundreds of thousands Of dol
lars worth Of bonds to get railroad
to cross it's boundaries. This was in
the old days Of pioneer poverty when
lands were selling anywhere from
s1.25 to SIS an acre. Some counties
are still paying off railroad bonds,
some repudiated the debt and others
have had half a century of litigation
over them. However, for the most
part the roads were built and agricul-
tural development followed their COM
ing.
Something like three-fourths of all
the freight hauled by railway ,ihes
must. first or last, pass over public
highways. It has been shown over
and over again that every ton SO
moved costs % cents mile. 1t Is
easy to see that the good roads prop
osition gets down to- matter Of dol
lars and cents.
Next March, or maybe April, when
we have to walk to town across the
fields; when it takes six-horse team
to move load of hay mile; when
the mail carrier cannot get around for
a week and the children miss school
on account of the mud-then we
are all for good roads. AS the mud
dries and the chuck-holes nil, we get
lukewarm. When the road-bond prop
osition comes up we begin to talk
high taxes and either stay away from
the polls or vote against it.
Good roads will never come till we
change our views and keep them
changed. Left to themselves a dirt
