SYSTEM OF SUMMER PRUNING
Usually Done to Check Very Vigor-
GUS Growing Trees With Idea of
Producing Fruit.

Summer pruning is generally used
to check very vigorous growing young
trees with the-idea of throwing them
into bearing. 1t is simply case of
heading back some of the stronger
growing branches with the idea of
checking the growth and making the
tree produce fruit spurs. Sometimes
growers complain that their trees are
not bearing, even though they are cul-
tivating very intensively and fertiliz-
Ing heavily. They do not realize that
trees making very heavy wood growth
brought about by heavy manuring or
rich soil tend to delay fruiting. There
fore, it is necessary to check the wood
growth, and this is done by doing less
fertilizing and cultivating and also by
following out system of summer
pruning.

POULTRY
CACKLES
RIGHT FOWLS FOR BREEDING
They Lay Larger Eggs-Frce
Range Is Favored.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
If cockerels or pullets are used in
the breeding flock they should be well
matured, poultry specialists in the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture advise. Hens are better than
pullets. They lay larger eggs, which
produce stronger chicks. Yearling
and twO-year-old hens are better than
older ones, Pullets used as breeders
should be mated with a cock rather
than with a cockerel. If a cockerel
Is used he should be mated with hens
rather than With pullets. AS rule,
well-matured eockerels will give bet
ter fertility than cocks.
When possible. free range should
be provided for tie breeding stock.
1t is better to provide 1t during the
entire fall and winter before the
breeding season, but, if this is not
possible, free range just preceding
and during The breeding season will
be of great value. Birds on free

THE DUCK LEADER.

"Quack, quack," said Sir David
Duck, II am the leader. And we will
all play follow the leader. 1t is a
splendid game
Everyone must follow the leader,
and / am the leader as I said before.
"A fine game, a very fine game,
quack, quack," said Sir David Duck.
Sir David Duck was In a pond which
looked as though 1t were of many
colors.
The water was blue and green In
color. There were pretty water weeds
growing in 1t and the sky was looking
In the water so that there were many
colors which were reflected from the
sky, just as person can see herself
reflected in the water when it Is very
clear.
The ducks all began to follow Sir
David Duck, swimming along in pairs.
They did not pay any attention to
the beautiful colors which were in the
water, and oh, such beautiful colors
as there were.
They didn't pay any attention to the
lovely sky above them, nor to the
beauty about them.
81 am glad to see the way you are
all following me-" said Sir David
Duck. 81 am glad to see it, in

"Quack, quack, we're all coming
along" said the ducks.

house some distance beyond the house
which belongs to the one who owns

'The people caught the bird and

THINNING TO IMPROVE FRUIT
Next Years Crop and Better
Size and Grade.

In years Of heavy crops neglect OF
thinning is often .ruinous to the next
years crop. Sometimes half the to-
tai number of apples set will be
thinned off so sufficient fruit buds
will form to provide for the next
years yield.
Experimental work with both
peaches and apples shows not only
the increase in next years crop but
also, and this is more important,
vast improvement in the size and
grade of the individual fruits pro
duced during the current season.
Thinning is not done to decrease the
number of bushels of fruit, but the
number of individual fruits produced,
1t is found.

unless they are protected; while in
the warmer parts apples, currants,
goOseberries and certain varieties of
several of the other fruits fail because
they are not adapted to the long hot
summers and mild winters. But in
these warmer regions, Japanese per-
simmons succeed, and in some of
them figs and certain other fruits can
be planted successfully. Therefore,
one of the most important features of
the plan for the home fruit plantation
is the selection of kinds of fruits, and
varieties of those kinds, which will do
well in the given locality, and which
will serve best the purpose for which
they are desired.
