is passing the time at her home in
Livermore Falls.
Reports of the orchard pruning
campaign indicate that our members
pruned 35.7 per cent. more apple
trees in 1921 than they did in 1920.
June LIST a letter was sent to every
man in this county who is farm
bureau mem Der inclOSlng post
card upon which he could report
what ne had done in his own or
chard to make the pruning cam
paign a success. Ia all 1872 replies
have been received These men re
port that $50 of the 1872 have Or
chards containing 46797 trees and
that they pruned 1870 trees in 1920,
and 2G,416 trees in 1921. a gain of
6GS6 or :}5.7 per cent. Stated another
way these men pruned 43 per cent.
of their trees in 1920 and So per cent.
in 1921.
Just how much of the increase in
the number of trees pruned in 1920
was due to the campaign is difficult
to state, but we may safely claim
much of the credit, since the cam
paign was the only new factor in the
situation.
A study of replies reveals the fact
that the average size of the orchards
reported was 800 trees. indicating
that on the whole the reports pro-
badly came from the larger and
more progressive orchardists. Yet
these men pruned only two-fifths of
their trees in 1920 and less than
three-fifths in 1921. This points out
the possibilities of orchard develop
ment in Kennebec County in prun-
ing alone.
Not only was it very interesting to
note who replied, but study of the
reports from this angle clearly points
out very serious extension problem.
OF the 1910 farm bureau members
only 1872 replied, although the card
was already addressed. required no
postage and was so worded that an
answer required the least possible eff
fort,

The Eyes of the
Children of Europe

what L shall never forget about
the children of Europe is the ey-
preston in their eyes, writes Caro-
line G. Norment of Baltimore. They
have little thin gray faces,-these
children. Their thin little bodies
lack the surplus energy which makes
our boys romp and "cut Shines"
They are apathetic children, un-
childlike children. But their eyes
remind me of the speech of the
physician in Macbeth: II fear she
hath known what she should mott"
That is it! These little ones have
have known mothers VINO were not
strong enough to endow them with
healthy bodies at birth. They have
known mothers who could not give
them nourishment enough to grow
on. Where other little children in
happier lands find life a merry cycle
of pink ribbons and flounces and
good cows milk, these have known
only hunger and cold
Seventy per cent. of the children
of upper Silesia went through the
whole of last winter without shoes
or stockings" says Howard II. Brin-
ton. of West Chester. Pa, who ar
rived home recently from SiIesia and
Berlin. Mr.. Brinton spent most of
this year in Upper Silesia, which now
is the storm center between Poland
and Germany. He was engaged in
feeding the undernourished children
as member of the relief mission of
the Society of Friends.
He states that a majority of the
school children came barefooted to
the feeding stations through slusb
and snow. Sometimes a so-called
sandal was worn consisting of ;,
