PRUNING Necessary.

Pruning Is u necessary part Of or,
chard practice, says G. w. Rapp Of the
Oklahoma Agricultural College of Horti
culture. An unpruned tree is much like
an unframed horse-both can work and
will work well If properly trained 1t
Is true that an unframed tree will pro.
duce some fruit, but it will not do its
best. Much of the energy that should
be directed toward fruit production
will be used to produce useless wood.
The tree will grow excessively and will
often become misshaped. Proper prun-
ing-the removal of dead, dying, dis
eased and excessive wood-together
with the proper shaping of the tree, is
an essential part of successful orchard
practice. Such treatment must be fol
lowed If the orchard is expected to pro.
duce fruit as 1t should.

ter of breeding animals in some Sec
tions of the country. This Is serious
mistake. Farmers should not sell their
breeding animals unless they can re-
place them Immediately with better
ones. Every breeding animal is abso-
lutely essential to the maintenance of
the live stock Of the country. There is
a shortage of meat animals throughout
the world and farmers cannot hope to
import new breeding stock to replace
those now foolishly killed off. Every
breeding animal must be regarded as
the seed essential to the domestic meat
and draft animal supply Of the nation.
Feeds not available or needed for hu-
man consumption should be used as
largely as possible in feeding live stock.
BY feeding straw or corn stover, espe-
cially for wintering mature stockers
and breeding animals, farmers will
make the best possible use of these
roughages. In this way large pro-
portion of the straw and stOver Ordi-
narily burned or wasted can be manu-
factured into meat and milk. Grain
sorghums, wherever they are available,
should be fed to release corn for hu-
man uses. Grain, where fed, should be
used as economically as possible.
Every animal should be factory for
turning into food material inedible for
human beings. This will necessitate
changes in many feeding formulas, and
stockmen are urged to apply at once to
the United States department of agri-
culture or their state agricultural col
leges for information as to the most ef-
fective and economical methods of feed
ing live stock under existing emergency
conditions.

Squaring Accounts.

Two items comprise the account
which compels the United States to
send gold to Japan. The first is the
debt which we have accumulated over
there because of our Democratic tar
iff which enables the Japanese to sell
us more goods than we can sell to
the japanese. This adverse balance
Of trade has to be paid for. We can
not pay it in goods; so we must pay
it in money. The other item is that
created by the purchase of war ma
terial by our Allies. We have two
thirds of the world s stock of gold
just now, and so we are made the
medium through which gold gets to
Japan. This item will probably now
disappear from the account between
the United States and Japan, mas
much as the huge loans which we are
lately making to our Allies will all
be expended here-and our manufac-
turers will secure the benefit of the
Allies orders which have heretofore
gone to Nippon. The other item will
remain-and it will probably in
crease. We shall doubtless witness
little if any diminution in our gold
shipments to Japan-because Japan
will continue to enter our free mar
kets with her gold and she will prob
ably send even more of them over
here in order that she may keep en-
ployed the men whom the cessation of
munition orders will take from that
line of activity.
