STOCK
COLTS FOR GELDING TRADE
Excellent Plan to Mouth Them and
Give Them Some Work During
Spring and Summer.

Colts for the gelding trade want
taking In hand early, and should be
well grown and well done from their
birth, so that at two years old they
should be big and strong enough to
do some work. 1t Is an excellent plan
TO mouth them, and work them a
bit during the spring and summer
that they come two years old. They
do not want working very hard, but
day or two mt pillow, harrow, or cul-
tiyator, and then day CT two ut rest,
and then at 1t again for few days.
and so on, gets them tractable, and 1t
seems to expand their muscles and in
duce growth.
Then when the harvest time comes
they can be turned Off and run through
the autumn and winter, receiving just
a little grain and chaff through the
hard part of the winter to keep them
fit, and they will come up at spring
time, as three-year-olds. At to take
their places In any job that 1t is
thought fit to put them to.
1t must be borne In mind that they
should be taught to go anywhere and
to do anything, so as to get accus-
toned to all kinds of work and noises
as well. They must be taught to pull,
and to back, and to stand still IL re-

BEES VALUABLE IN ORCHARD
investigation Shows That Honey
Gatherers Do Not Penetrate
Damage by Other Agents.

The idea that bees do harm In an
orchard has been disproved in an in
vestigation made mt Florence, Italy.
The bees cannot perforate the skin
of the fruit, and the damage is due
TO hornets, wild birds, wind or hail.
BY sucking injured fruit the bees
really prevent fermentation and the
spreading of rot. They also render
service in the cross pollinatlon of flow
ers and the resulting setting Of fruit,
orchards and vineyards frequented by
them bear most regularly.

wire may be used in much the same
way, but 1t is more expensive. The

more than One-half or three-quarters
Of cent apiece and can be secured

Bunches Of long grass or split corn
stalks may give good protection
against rabbits, but fail to keep mice
from doing harm. Newspapers or tar

Paint and washes do not give good
results, as the rabbits sometimes seem
TO attack the washed trees more than
the untreated ones.

Newly planted apple trees should

no chance to live without expert bridge

mt least for the man who is unaccus-

SOIL PREPARED FOR GRAPES
When Vines Begin to Spread They
Should BE Carefully Trained on
TreIlises and Pruned.

Grapes require no very extensive
preparation of the soil. They need
a deep soil, that has been carefully
prepared, then sufficient moisture TO
make plant food available. When the
vines begin to spread they should be
carefully trained on trellis and
pruned every year. Cultivation must
be sufficient to keep down weeds and
maintain surface mulch. Spraying
for certain insects and diseases will
DO essential sooner or later.
