Another issue of the Surplus cattle
list" distributed by the Agricultural
Extension service of the University OF
Vermont, reveals offerings of approx
mately 500 head on the part of the
breeders of registered dairy cattle in
Vermont
The fact that some owners are find
ing it necessary to cut down the size
of their herds on going into winter
quarters creates an excellent oppor'
tunitv for purchasers to secure excel
lent stock at reasonable prices. A
large number OF cows due to fresher
are included as well as heifers and
bulls of good breeding. Full informa'

Winter Injury
(By Gordon q, Brown

Many older orchards are showing
serious injury as a result Of the recent
freeze. Now that the trees have
thawed out. the injury is showing up
quite prominently. ln most cases the
injury is definitely localized in the
trunk and main body branches, where
the cambum is prominently dscolOred.
The injury appears for some distance
above and below the level to which
snow had settled AS a rule the great
est destruction took place between the
two and four foot levels. AS one eX-
amines the camblum tissue at greater
heights above the ground the trouble
gradually lessons or disappears alto
gether. Hence, an examination of the
smaller. younger growths, which in
many instances show no injury what
ever. does not offer any clue as to what
may be found in the main body of the
tree. This injury is found both in APP.
| pies and pears and the peculiar fact is
found in that the injury apparently
| bears no definite relation between trees
on different soils, sites or orchard man
agement. Apples appear to show con-
siderable differences in resistance to
this trouble. Baldwin and Arkansas
Black appear to be highly resistant
Jonathan, Oitleys and Spitzenburgs ap-
pear to be less so and the NeWtown
appears to be least resistant of all.
Despite the fact that the injury IS
quite severe. the situation has a very
hopeful aspect. 1t is found most prom
inently on the south or southwestern
portions of the tree. However. the OPP
posite side Of the tree or limb is much
less affected and should be able to func
tion when growth starts. Therein lies
the hope for tree so injured.
Should the most severely injured por-
tions fail to resume growth normally
there is considerable danger from sun
scald next summer, against which the
grower should guard. Applications Of
Bordeaux Whltewash to such parts next
summer should prove effective in such
cases where the body of the tree is eX-
posed directly to the sun. Otherwise
heart rot fungus may gain entrance to
the tree.
Where trees are severely injured |
believe heavy pruning next spring viii
be effective in strengthening the tree.
This in case the tree has an excessive
amount of top. In case where trees
have made normal growth and the top
is already thinned out do not believe
the case calls for special treatment.
Whether application Of nitrate Of soda
will help is very problematcal since It
is not so much problem Of available
plant food in the soil so much as it IS a
question of the trees ability TO make
use of it.

NEW LOCOMOTIVE

Valley Concern, Following lHjury to Own

On the arrival here Monday Of To-
comotiye secured from the $. z. a s
K. K. Co, freight traffic over the line
of the Mt. Hood K. h Co. was ie-
sumed. During the recent cold wealth
er, a locomotive Of the line was derail-
ed near Parkdale and badly damaged.
While It was repaired a cylinder head
blew out last week and the engine was
again put out Of commission for an in
definite period.
The valley line is facing the heaviest
winter business in its history. Nor
mally apple Tonnage on the line has all
been hauled by this time, but this sea
son approximately 800 600 boxes Of ab-
pies remain at warehouses between
here and Parkdale. With a percentage
OF the fruit Spitzenburgs that should
be put into consumption at the earliest
possible moment, shippers are eager to
see them rolling.

applies however, only to frosted or

If any part of the load is found frosted
on delivery the entire load will be

instructions may seem drasti but the
situation demands it. Do not attempt
to deliver anything if the temperature
is below freezing, as the load Will

members whose fruit is a long distance

encountered IN hauling such distance,
but believes when you are aware Of
the miserable service rendered by the
railroads that you will agree that this
order is necess AIRY. 1t has been our
custom to clean all valley warehouaes
prior to January lst. This year, how
ever, we have in Van Horn and ware

A goodly portion of the apples still
on hand are sold, but ear shortage has
not permitted us to fill our orders and
avail ourselves of the usual holiday
trade. just what the final results will
be no one can tell. NeWtowns are
apparently the best property in the
apple line, and unless we receive can
cellations on account Of our inability
to ship, we will get through the season
with reasonable results.

ENLARGE FORCE
Police Force May Be Increased by
the City Officials.

Because Of the crime wave through
Michigan. the city commission Tues
day evening empowered William f..
Reynolds, city manager, and Oscar
Vibber, chief of police, TO increase
the police force, if they deemed il a
necessary measure.
The present expectations are that
two more men will be added TO the
police force within the next week or
two.
The city commission also feels
that it would be a wise measure for
the merchants of the city to leave a
light burning in their stores in such
position, that it will be an easy
matter for the officers on duty al
night to gain a clear view of the in
terror of the stores, when they are
making their rounds. They feel that
this precautionary measure will
prove valuable not only to the police
force, but to the merchants them
selves.
