Many Of US, In the rush Of tho sea.

patch after the fruit ID picked. II
possible, take time to clean up the
canes this summer, say tho wise ones
who are most experienced In the
business Of berry production.
Immediately after last picking OF

berries, cut out the canes NAT pro-
duced the fruit this year. They are
reddish brown color and can BE- read
ily distinguished from the new canes.
The sooner these old canes ars taken
out the better 1t will be for the new
canes, for they need the plant food
and the moisture that the old canes
will use and after fruiting they are
Of no use whatever.
Furthermore, any disease and In
sscts that may be on the old canes
can thus be removed. II there IL very
much Of this work to do, a pruning
hook should be used to cut out the
old canes and they should be burned
up or taken to the brush pile at once.

The usual method OF supporting
raspberrles is by means OF q trellls'

are strung on crosspleces Of by 4
inch, Or 2 by 4-lnch lumber, nailed 10
upright posts.
Another method Is to fasten the
wires directly, by means OF staples, 10
the sides Of the posts. Seven'1oot
posts set two feet In the ground ana
30 or IS feet apart commonly are
used. 1t Is important that the posts
be set firmly, and the hole should De

In the hole and to puddle with water

Raspberries usually are trelllseo d!

Stahl of the washington experiment
station. While some growers, instead
Of trelllsing, prefer to cut off the top
Of the fruitlng canes at a height OF
about six feet, this method Is not gen.
orally followed, the berries produced
being larger but not as early.
BY the weaving system, frultins
canes are bent over and woven to the
trellls on either one or both sides. The
wires for these canes are strung at

A BAND STAND Is NEEDED

Barbourville has a Band. 1t is
first class organization and proba-
bly, the best we have ever had. The
players are full of enthusiasm and
are anxious to give the citizens real
music. May we suggest that the new
kiwanis Club, the different Womens
Clubs. the City Council and Fiscal
Court could easily have a proper
bandstand which would be an in
ducement to practice built in the
Public Square. We can do with a
little good music and if the boys get
a bandstand We shall have it.
Mr. Simms, the director, has had
a wide experience as have some of
the others. Hugh NJ. Oldfield, who
plays one of the cornets, has COM
posed and published a number of
band pieces, one of which the boys
are already playing.
