little attention is given to trimming
the roots before the plants are set out.
In filing the holes after the trees
are placed in position care should be
taken to work finely pulverized fertile
soil among the roots. This can be
done with the fingers better than in
almost any other way After a few
shovelfuls of soil have been placed
about the roots, it helps If the tree Is
slightly raised and lowered once or
twice. This will tend to work the fine
soil in among the roots. AS the filing
progresses the soil should be firmed
about the roots with the foot or by
some other effective method. OF all
the operations connected with planting,
the firming of the soil about the roots
is perhaps the most important. and it
should be done with great thorough
ness. Finally. the holes should be fill
ed even with the surface.
In connection with the planting or
Immediately following it, the branches
of fruit trees should be cut back with
view to giving a desirable form to
the top as it develops.
In planting raspberries. blackber-
ries, currants, and goOseberries. the
tops should be cut back to height Of
about inches. If currants and goose
berries have particularly strong root
systems, the tops are sometimes left
10 to IL inches high.

PLAN OUTLINED FOR
PLANTING ORCHARDS
Soil Where Trees Are to Be Plant
ed Should Be Prepared.
Important to Take Precautions to Pre-
vent Roots of Trees From Becom-
inc Dry-Whcre Planting Is
Delayed "heel In"

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
If the prospective orchardist pre-
pares the soil where his trees are to
stand as thoroughly as he does his
garden before planting vegetables, the
growth of his trees will amply repay
him. If the orchard site Is In sod, it
Is advisable to cultivate 1t during one
season, at least, after the sod is plowed
under, in order that the grass roots
may decay before the fruit trees are
planted. If the trees are to be planted
In yard where the owner desires to
retain his lawn, the soil over an area
Of several feet where the tree is to
stand should be spaded thoroughly.
This plan, however, is a compromise
between a lawn and fruit garden,
and the results are not likely to be so
satisfactory as where the ground is
thoroughly cultivated.
Every possible precaution should be
taken from the time the trees and 9TH
until they are planted to prevent the
roots from becoming dry. If the plants
are to be set at once on being received,
the roots may be covered with wet
gunny sacks, an old blanket, or some
other material that has been thorough
ly moistened. until they are ready to
be put into the ground.
II it is necessary to delay planting
for considerable time. the trees
should be "heeled in" This is done
by untying the bundle OF plants, loosen
ing and separating the roots and plac-
ing the plants in a trench and packing
the soil about the roots to prevent
drying.
The trees should stand an inch or
two deeper when planted than they
stood in the nursery, and the holes
should be broad enough to receive the
roots without bending them from their
natural positions. This applies also to
raspberry. blackberry, currant, and
other small-fruit plants with the excep-
ton of Strawberries. The last named
should be planted at such depth that
the crown OF the plant is even with the
surface. II they are planted deeper
than this they are likely to smother,
while II planted more shallow the roots
are likely to dry out.
The broken ends Of roots should be
cut of and any long, slender roots
should be shortened to correspond to
the main root system. Small-fruit
plants should be treated In about the
esms way. though In actual practice

Aims OF Clubs.
Twentynine of the clubs studied are
the product Of local organizations with
restricted aims, such as a women's
club, athletic club, or a farmers club,
which constructs building for its pri-
vate use as well as for the general
social use Of the community. Twenty
of the community buildings now in
use have been donated by private indi-
viduals, who generally operate and
maintain them. while 10 of the club
houses have been provided by the
township or town which maintains the
buildings through revenues earned by
the buildings themselves. There are
seven of these community buildings
which have been erected as social cen
ters for the use of the employees of
some local industry, as well as for the
community in general.

ment Of Agriculture.)
The community club provides the
''get-together rendezvous" for the ru
raj neighborhood. A country club of
this character is not only clearing
house of sociability and rural upift,
but, during the recent war, it supplied
excellent quarters for emergency work

the council Of national defense and
other war activities, as well as foster

stration operations.
County communities In 100 different
localities now enjoy the community
club Rest rooms are provided for the
farmers and their families when they
visit town, while usually the county
agent and the local nurse have Offices
In the building. The equipment of the
building varies with the agricultural
prosperity of the territory; from plain
furniture and fittings of distinctly util-
itarian simplicity to elaborate furnish
ings. including moving-picture ma
chimes, pianos and talking machines.
How Clubs Are Formed.
Not long ago the rural organization
project of the bureau of markets,
United States department Of agricul-
ture, conducted a comprehensive in
vestigation of the community build
ings, their activities, organization. and
management Usually the persons own
ing stock in their community building
association organize an Incorporated
company. Nonstock holders desiring
the privileges of the building are as
ISOLATED as social members, both
classes paying dues. Generally, The
control and management Of the Lulld-
ings are under the direction Of the
board Of trustees and various commit
tees, which centralize their powers In
the authority delegated to the house
secretary. In some instances Where
the community building is secured

CONDITIONS OF
BADGER CROPS
Weather Unfavorable for Spring
Work, But Grasses Are Growing
Satisfactorily

The following is the synopsis of the
weather and crop conditions in Wis.
consin for the week ending Tuesday,
April Is, sent out from the Milwaukee
weather Office, by A. A. Justice, meter
ologist.
Much, cloudy weather with heavy
rains and about normal temperature
prevailed during the week. Owing to
wet soils field work remained almost
at a standstill, except locally in east
central counties and on very light
soils elsewhere. Rye, winter wheat,
clover, and grasses made satisfactory
growth generally, though there were
some complaints of the nights being
too COOL Some oats and spring wheat
have sown, a few early potatoes and
garden truck have been planted, and
some tobacco beds have been pre-
pared, but spring activities are some
what backward generally. However.
farmers are ready to rush spring work
as soon as the ground dries sufficient
ly. Fruit buds are swelling and early
trees are blooming in the extreme
south. Cranberries apparently passed
the winter in good condition. The
frost Is almost all out of the ground
to the northern border, but there has
been very little activity in the north
ern liird Of the State.
