Round Crest Sprays Cherry

For the last two years The Round

fall to prevent the winter killing Of
cherry buds in it's orchards.
n1al5 the experiment was tried on
on acre OF cherry trees. The middle
row in the orchard was left unspray-
ed Two-thirtis of the buds on this row
OF trees were winter killed. On the
other trees of the orchard less than
one per cent OF the buds were killed.
In 1918 the experiment WAS tried ON
a much larger scale and all the cherry
trees were sprayed The result was the
largest crop of cherries in the history

The Round Crest people are urging
every grower who has cherries TO try

matter fair test. The cost for the
material is light.

Bismarck next year will collect per-

property, while this year the Bismarck
property-holder is paying tax on $500,
600. This condition results from an
action of the city commission last

per cent of its actual worth to five per.
cent, as required by the new classif.
