YOUNG GROWING TREES NEED
ATTENTION NOW.

The young trees that were set out
during the fall. winter or early
spring should be taken care Of when
they begin to grow. Remove all the
sprouts and suckers and develop only
those branches that will form the
tree. Do not wait till the follow
ing fall or winter to prune the suck
ers and other undesirable growth,
but train the fruit tree while it is
young, then if the young tree is
properly trained while it, is growing,
the older it becomes the less prun-
ing it will require and the longer it
will live.
Pear trees especially should be
pruned and trained in the summer
time. AS soon as the new shoots
grow twelve inches or so in length,
clip off the end growth and repeat
two or three times till about the
m; ddle of July This will check tho
abnormal growth and cause the tree
to be more fruitful. This should be
done every season, while the tree is
growing. Watch the tree carefully
and regulate the new growth. Be
sure to look out for the insects and
diseases Examine the tree at least
one week especially at time when

BIRL)CONTEST
ATllDRARY

With the appearance Of the pussy
willows; the first robins and bluebirds
come the annual bird and flower con-
test which is now being held at the
library.
Any child is eligible; provided he
can give evidence that he has really
seen the bird Only four birds of one
kind are put on the poster. Be one of
the first, boys and girls, to get your
name on the list. Try to be the one
to get the most birds that come in the
spring time and win out in the contest
There is a poster at both the branch
library and at the main library.
Watch the old haunts of the birds
and see if they do not come back year
after year to the same places and in
many cases to the same nests. Every
spring day brings US many feathered
travellers from the warm southern
countries where they have passed the
winter. Try to attract the birds SO
that they will come back to US and
make their summer home with US. It
takes bird only a short time to come
where no cunning is allowed and very
quickly, too, they learn to avoid the
lent air-rifies and sling-shots of small
boys.
Later on in the season when the
first flowers begin to appear there will
be q flower contest carried on in the
same manner as the bird contest. Hunt
for the very first flowers of spring and
see if you will be the one to get the
most different kinds of flowers.
Then at the close Of the spring term
Of school a final contest in which the
name Of the bird and flower will be
covered and the boys and girls will
have to guess the name.
We are looking for many of you to
bring the names Of as many new birds
who have come for the summer as you
can. Already quite few have their
names on the poster.

Heads Milwaukee Detectives.

A grand jury investigation OF
the Milwaukee detective bureau
and shakeup and reorganization
of the detective force of the police
department doomed up at the close Of
the sensational battle between John t.
Sullivan, former captain Of detectives,
and Mayor Daniel w Hoan, in which
the mayor forced Sullivan TO submit a
second resignation and TO leave his Of
flee. At the same time it became
known that the Sullivan control of the
detective bureau ceased to exist when
Detective Harry McCrory, who had
been relegated TO an obscure position
in the North side station district about
five years ago by Sullivan, was named
acting captain of detectives. Mr. Nc
CrOry will take over the captains Of
fee. Sufliyan's resignation and Cap
tain McCrory's temporary appoint
ment were the climaxes in a day re-
plete With sensations Late I'm the day
it became apparent that only one part
Of the lid had been pried off and that
Developments which may transpire
within the next few days may involve
other members of the detective force,
some OF whom may come under the
surveillance Of a federal grand jury
for their alleged participation in the
Illicit liquor traffic. Other designations
are expected, it was said in official cir
cles. Some Of these are expected as
the result of the departure of Sullivan,
while others are expected from some
members of the department who are
certain that they are under the surveil-
lance OF the mayor and the members
CT the fire and police commission.

Votes Against Hanson Bill.

AT the recent hearing on the
Hanson measure, industry and re-
tail business showed that abolishing
OF the personal property offset would
cripple business in Wisconsin at a
time when restoration of confidence
was never more important to the gen
eral welfare Of the state. The recon-
mendati0n of the taxation committee
indicates that arguments advanced by
business men from Milwaukee and
elsewhere made a deep impression on
the legislature Economy fairly
r0mped through tie assembly on
Tuesday. Nothing could have been
more expressive of legislative response
to the public demand for retrenchment
than he decisive man. er on which the
house killed bills increasing apprOpri-
atoms for farm organizations. 1t was
conceded on all sides that these votes
reflected the temper Of the assembly
against boosted budgets, no matter
from what source requests for more
money may come. The amount of
money involved in the bills sent to the
legislative graveyard was insignificant,
as appropriations go, little more than
SI,OOO, IN fact, but the attitude of the
house was considered highly signifi-
cant Of what appears to be a general
understanding not to allow increased
appropriations. Should this rule hold
good as the session goes on, some of
the more important financial meas
ures, including those providing funds
for the University of Wisconsin, nor
NAL schools and other state instftu-
tons, may be slashed to the amounts
allowed two years ago.
