KENTUCKY FARM LAND VALUES

Farm land values IN kentucky a.
a whole have increased approxi-
mately II per cent in the last year
according TO the March agricul-
tural report issued by the Ken
lucky office OF the United States
Bureau Of Crop Estimates. In the
same time farm land values in the
United States as a whole have in
creased approximately 20 per cent
The increase in Kentucky has
been greatest in the tobacco pro-
ducing sections, amounting in many
instances TO wild speculation and
initiation in the richest Blue Grass
counties, and TO very great in
cieases in the richer sections Of
Western Kentucky.
Good pillow lands and improved
farms in both Kentucky and the
entire United States show not only
greater increase in value in dollars
per acre than does poor pillow land
or unimproved farm land, but also
show greater percentages OF in
crease in value per acre.
Since March 4, 1919, good pillow
land in Kntucky has increased
from an average price Of 5000 TO
$500; poor pillow land from $500
to $500; average Of all pillow land
from $1,000 TO 5000; average of all
improved farm land from $500 to
$500; and the average Of all IN
Improved farm land from $1,000 TO
5000 an acre.
During the same time average
land values for the United States as
whole have increased as follows:
good pillow land increased from an
average Of s9is3 TO sii3.3i; poor
pillow land from s5f.26 TO s6O.76;
average price of all pillow land from
S4.3i TO 5000; improved farm
land from $3.50 TO 1921; and I'M
improved farm land from S620S to
$fl.A.
Wages for farm labor have in
creased greatly in the last year,
not only in Kentucky but through
out the United States, yet it is still
difficult to get satisfactory or adj
eqpate labor on the farms.
Kentucky farmers this month re-
port they have on hand:-36 per
cent of last years corn crop, or
29,7O0,000 bushels, compared to 81
per cent of the 1918 crop, or $780,
900 bushels on hand March 4, 1919;
II per cent of last years wheat
crop, or i,323,OOO bushels, COM
pared TO 10 per cent or i,2i3,000
bushels on hand a year ago from
the 1918 crop; 25 per cent Of their
last years oats crop, or 2,475,0OO
bushels, compared TO 81 per cent.
OF 2,592,OOO bushels on hand March
4. 1919 and 20 percent of their 1919
barley crop, or 10000 bushels, COM
pared to ~ percent Of the larger
1918 crop, or 10000 that was on
farms March 4, 1919.

In pruning grapes remember that
the fruit grows on the new wood
of the present seasons growth,
which springs from wood grown the
proceeding season. Wood that bore
last season will not bear again.
For this reason grapes should be
cut back very severely in order TO
stimulate plenty Of new healthy
wood growth. The fruit is bore
near the base and ordinarily one
shoot should not be allowed TO pro-
duce over four clusters.

PRUNING


comes imperative that the man who
intends TO produce fruit of even fair
quality and in reasonable quantity
or in abundance, turn his attention
to the correct pruning and spraying
OF his trees and vines. In view Of
this fact it is thought seasonable TO
offer a few suggestions on pruning.
Why We Prune
I. To modify the vigor Of the
plant.
2. To produce fruit that will be
larger and better.
3. To keep the tree in proper and
convinent shape.
Z. To change the habit of the tree.
5. To remove superfluous or in
jured parts.
6. To facilitate spraying and har-
vesting.
7 To train the tree in some de-
sired form.
II uuiu9 r Iult lAcco.
Pruning is a necessity where good
fruit is desired. An unpruned tree
can never be expected to produce
fruit of high quality. With the
best titled trees if we cease pruning
for few years the fruit has ten
dency to grow smaller, and lose its
color and flavor because the air and
sunlight cannot pass through the
thick branches.
Many old orchards have been
neglected for some time and as a
result are choked with water
sprouts and dead limbs.
Trees in this condition should not
be pruned all in one year. The
first year remove the suckers, and
all of the dead wood and the most
Objectionable crossing branches. The
second season more of the unnec-
essary crossing branches may be cut
out. After this light pruning
each year will do.
prune regularly, not spasmodically.
Head in young trees, thin out old
trees.
Prune during the dormant season.
Prune close; do not leave stubs.
Paint all large wounds.
Keep the tree free from suckers.
Do not allow stock to prune your
trees.
Water sprouts are the result of
too heavy pruning.
An axe or Ratchet is not pruning
tool.
Unpruned, unsprayed and uncul-
tivated orchards are not money
makers.
The orchard is not a profitable
source of firewOOd.
