EXPERIMENTS MADE
AT W0BURN STATION
Tests to Ascertain Whether Ap'
pie Trees Suffered Less From
Canker in High Soil.

The department of agriculture has
received a report from the Woburn
experimental fruit farm of tests made
to ascertain whether apple trees in a
heavy soil suffered less from canker
if they were planted higher than usual.
Certain varieties subject TO this disease
were planted at the usual depth and
also with their roots flush with the sur
face of the ground. Observations over
period of ten years show that the
h!gh-planted trees have not fiourished
quite so well as the others. No re-
lation between their behavior In sue
cessive years and the rainfall was OBJ
served The high-planted trees have
suffered somewhat less from the at
tack of canker.
Experiments dealing with the cut
ting back of the branches of trees at
the time of transplanting have shown
that such cutting back may be delayed
up to any time before active growth
begins without any injury to the trees.
If delayed until the summer the effect
is very deleterious and remains in evil
dence for many years afterwards. If
the operation cannot be done before
summer, ii is recommended that 1t be
deferred to the end of the first year.
This is followed by excessive root
growth and very strong branch growth
subsequently occurs, at least during
one season. The tree often continues
this growth and does not come into
proper bearing until several years
later than similar trees which have
been cut back at the time of trans
planting.

Women Best Prevarieators.

"Women are better liars than men.
but God bless them just the same"
said Police Magistrate J. NJ. Fitzgerald
of the Omaha police court.
"Women come into court and lie
right along, under oath. Their lies do
not show on their faces, either. but I
can tell they are lying because their
stories contradict those Of reliable wit
nesses.
'When men lie they hesitate, turn
red, swallow, etc. One can tell they're
lying just by watching their faces and
necks.
'But Won can't tell Il on a woman.
They lie outrageously and stick to
their stories in the face of everything
They know just the right time to de-
vlate from the truth, too. Their lies
always count in the outcome OF their
trials-if they are believed. Men
haven't the same knack nj the art that
women police court characters have"

GIVING RASPBERRIES
WINTER PROTECTION
Canes Must Be Bent Over to
Ground and Covered With
Earth or Straw.
CBy E. p. sANDsTEN, Colorado Agrl
cultural College.)

By E. p. sANDsTEN, Colorado Agrl-
cultural College.)
With few exceptions, winter protec-
ton is necessary to insure a crop of
raspberries. In some cases the mere
laying down or bending over of the
canes to protect them against the cold
and drying winds is all that is neces-
sary, though the safest and most eff
cient way is TO bury the canes, that is,
cover them with soil to a depth of
three or four inches. The covering
should be done as late as possible, but
before the ground is frozen. Select
days during which there is no freezing
temperature; otherwise the canes are
apt to break when bent to the ground
for covering. With some varieties hav-
ing strong and brittle canes 1t is often
necessary to remove a spadeful of soil
from the side of the cane towards
which the canes are bent and in ex-
IRENE cases the soil is removed on both
sides. Generally, only enough earth is
used to completely cover the canes,
and success is dependent not upon the
thickness Of the covering, but upon the
completeness of the cover. Strawy
manure will serve the same purpose
as earth, If obtainable In sufficient
quantity to make complete covering.
The canes should be uncovered as
late as possible In the spring to avoid
early spring frosts, yet the covering
should not he nprmiftpd tO remain foo
long as 1t Is apt to injure the young
growth. Ordinarily when the buds
have well started the covering should
be removed. Care should be taken In
uncovering so as not to break or other
wise injure the canes and the soil
should be leveled Off completely; 9TH
erwise in few years the bushes will
stand on ridge and the feeding area
of the plants is greatly decreased.

PRuNE SMALL ORCHARD ON AVERAGE FARM

Tbs purpose of this article is not
to consider the needs of a large COM
mercial orchard, but rather those of
the small orchard on the average farm,
says |. @. Hoffman in Perdue Agricul-
turist. However, the same principles
of care and management apply to both.
Apple trees, like any other species,
tend to grow tall If allowed to have
their own way, and careful watching,
pruning and care are necessary if the
best results are to be obtained The
successful orchardist has found IL more
economical to grow low, broad
topped tree which Is symmetrical in
shape rather than the type that is so
closely related to the forest tree. In
order TO get the best possible type it
is necessary to prune the tree, cut
ting out the crossed and undesirable
branches, and leaving only those that
will produce well-balanced top.
Another important factor TO be
watched is the open head. A certain
amount of sunlight inside the head is
necessary to the health of the tree and
development of the fruit. Sunlight is
a great germlcide and fungicide. and
so 1t tends to hinder the growth of
these organisms within the top.
When to Begin Pruning.
Pruning should begin when the tree
Is set out. The top and the roots are
pruned so that they bear an equal
ratio to each other. The top is started
low. Some orchardists recommend as
low as Is to "a inches above ground
as the proper distance for starting the
top. This is desirable, since it pro-
duces tree with low, we'll
branched top, which makes spraying

Talk to Ruttermakers.

F.'W. BOuska, reputed TO be the ma

subject of buttermaking and creamery
management, will address Michigan
buttermakers and creamery managers
ut the Michigan Agricultural college

II to %. The week will be given
over at the college TO special one
weeks school for experienced cream
cry men. In addition TO Mr.. Bouska,
ii has been announced, members OF
the dairy faculty of the college, and
representatives of the pure food and
dairy department of the state will
also meet with and work with the

and picking more economically done,
and also there is less danger of dam
age by storms.
Young limbs may be taken off at
any time. The loss of vitality and
moisture is insignificant. But large
limb should never be taken off until
the tree is dormant. The best time
For this is late in the winter or very
early in the spring before growth be-
gins, as there Is less danger of the
wound drying out and cracking. AL
so that no stubs extend out, because
the wound will not heal over, and in
time the stub will decay and ruin the
tree.
Make Cut Upward.
Never make the first cut In a large
limb on the top. but with the saw
make an upward cut one or two inches
deep on the underside to prevent the
limb from breaking off and peeling
away a portion of the bark. Always
leave the wound smooth, and If 1t is
one and half inches or more in di-
ameter II should be painted with white
lead.
Orchard renewing is rapidly COM
ing into popularity In all parts Of the
fruit belt. Mature trees that have
been neglected for many years are
headed i'm and made to grow new
wood, and in many cases the entire
top is worked over and reshaped. The
results of these experiments show that
the methods are practical and bene-
fetal. The orchardist works the top
down to the low, well-balanced head
that ia so popular and with proper
spraying the crops are large and well
matured.

n. A. c. FeeIs HIah Cost Of War.

Agricultural college is feeling the
"high cost of war" '"rhe increase I'm

other items incident to the conduct OF

100000 year more than was the case
of 1916" said President Kedzie the

ever, has been the drain upon the
funds Of M. A. G. which has resulted
from the part the college has been
called upon to play In war work. This
has amounted to so much that Il has

TEN often has been accused of being
addicted to fads. In its efforts to ed
Ucate the yOdng it surges now this
way and now that way Apparently
what is wanted is a high-sounding
name to designate new departure,
when more often than otherwise the
only new thing about it is the name.
Atone time the schools were very
much upset over the ratio of num-
bers-ratiO this and ratio that. Not
merely the ratio of one abstract
thing to another, but actually the "a
ito of one concrete thing to another
concrete thing; as, what is the ratio
of watermelon to pumpkin pie?
Ratio had its day. Then it was
English. Not that English had not
been taught in the schools since the
beginning, but this was The English.
New books must be purchased Cthat
were never used) teachers must at
tend classes to acquire new meth
DDS; it was English this and English
that. Finally this kind of English fell
by the wayside.
Next a roar was heard Tor the three
RS. The schools were addicted to
fads. Fad arithmetic, fad English,
fad spelling, fad history, fad every
thing. Do away with fads-back to
the three RS was the cry.
Again the fad is appearing. This
time it is military training. Will it
follow the others as a fad? The fad
must have a name. Plain arithmetic
must be number study. English must
be language studies, etc. Military
training must have a new name. The
particular brand that is being used
in Chicago today bears the name of
an army officer This attitude of Civ
ing the subject a descriptive name
leads the people to believe they are
getting something new, a new inven-
ton, as it were
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1917-04-20

We are teaching arithmetic today
just as efficiently as when it was
known as the ratio of numbers.
We are teaching English more eff
fectiveIy than when we had the spe-
ciaI brand, for the special brand was
a rank failure.
The schools are teaching the three
RS and other subjects efficiently in
the main, and, if not, will not do so
by any fad method.
If we make, or try to make, a fad
of military training it will go the way
of other fads. But if we get down
to brass lacks and teach it as a sub
ject related to our educational sys-
tenn it will be a success and result in
the improvement Of the individual
and the community.
The trouble is that some gUllible
people think the 'Steever plan" Is
something new, a recent invention.
AS matter of fact, all that the ca
diets do under this system has been
done for more than 25 years, not only
in this country, but in foreign coUn-
tries as we'll

pCIl-
 Troopers Disarmed.
 The rloting was a recrudescence or race troubles that occurred here a month ago following the importation of large numbers of negro laborers from the south.
 State troopers themselves were dis armed by the mobs in many instances during the day and, together with the police, held powerless before the riot- CTS.
 The disorder began when a mob O: 200 negroes fired on an automobile load of policemen Sunday night, kill ing one.
 Car service was stopped while wom- en and girls joined with the men in stopping street cars in the heart of the downtown district and dragging out every negro on whom they could lay their hands.
 Saloons Closed.
 Until the white women began to par ticipate, negro women and girls had seemed immune from attack, but when this occurred, negresses, too, were at tackled.
 Sixteen guardsmen were disarmed this afternoon by members of the mob, who .aIr,ly asked the soldiers to give them their weapons .est the guards men hurt someone in the crowd.
 Mayor Mollman ordered the saloons closed at F o'clock this afternoon, and it had been hoped that this measure would prevent any serious outbreak to- night At o'clock police and guardsmen began moving negro men and women and children to St. Louis, Mo, in motor trucks in order that they might be out of danger during the night.
 The immediate cause Of the riOting was the outbreak of negroes last Sun day night, but for several days there | had been evidences of bad blood, and | Saturday night several minor clashes between whites and blacks occurred.
 Negroes Organize.
 The clashes Saturday night appa- rently alarmed the negro quarter of the city, or at least gave agitators a | chance to organize the negroes for | fighting. When word was telephoned [ to police headquarters that the ring ing of a church bell had called the armed negroes together an automo- bile loaded with police left for the scene to disperse the crowd. The off cers were greeted with a volley. De tective Sergeant Coppedge was killed and three police wounded.
 Police endorsements early Monday morning dispersed the negroes and Mayor Mollman asked Governor Low den to send national guardsmen to preserve order.
 Two companies of the guard were assigned to duty in the negro quarter Up to that time, the streets were quiet and it seemed that the day would pass without a renewal of the rioting. As the morning wore on crowds began tC congregate in the streets, and, encour aged by the absence of the troops from the downtown section, agitators began their work of inflaming the mob.
 One of the national guard compan ies then was ordered from the negro quarter to the business section, but the arrival of troops seemed to incite the mobs to further aggression.
