EASY SPRAYING AND PICKING
Remove All Limbs That Cross or Chafe
Each Other-open Tops Admit
Necessary Sunlight.

All limbs that chafe or cross each
other should be removed and the tops
made open enough that all fruit in the
center of the tree will be well cOlOred.
This open top will also enable one to
reach all parts of the tree In spraying
and make picking much easier. Trees
that are too tall should have the tops
cut back.

WATER SPROUTS PRUNED OUT
Too Much Moisture Is Used by Them
in Time of Drought-Crop Shows
Up Much Better.

Water sprouts and surplus limbs
take too much water from the trees
in time of drought; prune out those
which are not needed on the tree and
save the water for the ripening fruit;
fruit won't mature where shaded by
sprouts.
The crop shows up better where the
tree is kept pruned, admitting sun
light and air, and enables the buyer
to see the fruit better. These state
ments are not gueSSes or mere opin-
ions. They are some Of the things
that have been proved by careful tests.

ing is promptly produced, the patient

So far as live stock is concerned,
about all that can be done must be in
the way of prevention. If the land is
plowed where the plant grows, care
should be taken that no roots are left
where stock can get at them. Where
the plants grow in great abundance, as
they frequently do along irrigating
bitches, it Is desirable to dig them
out. When this is done the roots
should not be left on the surface, but
should be destroyed. 1t is seldom that
stock are poisoned when grazing, I'm.
less they Craze along bitches, where
the plants sometimes grow almost In

easily be pulled up.
Perhaps there is no way to prevent
some cases Of poisoning Of children, 1t
is declared. Something might be &C.
complished, however, if parents and
teachers would attempt to make clear
to children the danger Of eating

C|CUTA IS DANGEROUS
Little Known Plant Menace to
Men and Domestic Animals.
Uncle Sans Specialists Issue Warn
Ing Against Poisonous Roots Not
Generally Recognized.

Many deaths, both of human beings
and domestic animals, are caused every
year by cicuta, or water hemlock, a
poisonous plant. 1t is the most vio-
lently poisonous Of temperate region
plants, yet it is not generally recog-
nized. Learn to know it and look out
for it is warning issued by special
lists Of Uncle Sans department of
agriculture who have published cir
cular which describes this plant and
gives remedies, though cases among
domestic animals must be considered
as practically hopeless so far as treat
ment is concerned.
Clcuta is widely distributed. Unfor-
tunately, it resembles a number of
harmless plants and is not easily
recognizable. It belongs to the same
family as carrots and parsGips. 1t has
number of popular names, of which
the most common is "cowbane," or
"water hemlock." In the mountain re-
gions Of the West it Is frequently
called 'parsnip" or wild parsnip."
Other names, less common, are 'snake-
root" "snakewood," ''beaver poison"
''muskrat weed" spotted hemlock,"
and spotted parsley"
The plant grows in wet places and is
especially common in some parts of
the West along irrigating bitches. It
has a thickened rootstock with roots
which sometimes take the form of a
group of tubers. The cicuta is most
readily distinguished from plants of
similar appearance growing under the
same conditions by the transverse
chambers in the rootstock. These can
be seen by making a longitudinal sec.
ton.
Only the root Of cicuta is poisonous.
Cases Of poisoning are more frequent
in the spring, partly because the roots
are more likely to be noticed at that
time and partly because they appear
to be more poisonous then than later
In the season.
In cases Of the poisoning of human
beings the recognized treatment is to
give an efficient emetic, followed by a
cathartic. Some. form Of opium may

the expression OF. the high jumper,
the vaulter or the. weight man. There
is always that drawn, taut, strained
contraction of the muscles, which in
anything else but athletics would de-.
note extreme physical pain.
In the athlete it shows the max
imum effort being crowded into the
briefest length Of time.
The same holds good with the ball
player. 44..
The batter is at the plate. His
mind is concentrated on the pitcher.
His eye follows the windup and
catches the flash of the ball as it
leaves the pitchers hand.
He sets for the swing and then,
putting every ounce of strength and
energy into the movement tries to
meet the ball.
The strained expression lasts only
the fractional part Of second.
1t has been figured that a bat,
swung hard, will travel about $50
feet a second. The bat is swung on
circle, the diameter of which, count
ing bat and length of arm, would
probably be five feet on the average,
the bat probably will travel half the
circle or a distance Of about II feet,
which would be accomplished in
about 1-15th of second.
You will have to watch close to see
the expression, because it does not
last longer than the swing.
