erness partisan politics. would be beneficial to
public official and individual voter in this nation Figures
are dry reading and few people, leaders in pubC
thought will take the trouble to anayze the wonderful
stories that figures tell.
For years we have for granted that the talk
about trade" Great Britain meant that that nation
had no tariff while the protective tariff" in the
United States meant that people forced to much
higher prices for homemade products which could be
purchased cheaper shipped in here from foreign
tries.
The facts are that in Gree trade. England, per
capita customs tax than four times high in
our own tariff ridden United States The hideOus thing
about English tariff is that protects except in few
sporadic cases. articles manufactured in that country
but customs duties imposed almost solely upon the
necessities of the poor-tea tobacco, cocoa etc.
which to the English wOrkmen necessary roast
beef.
In other words there is tariff to protect the
age English workman industry from ruinous cOmpe
tton other nations which produce manufactured
articles cheaply Instead Of putting the tariff on
foreign pianos and similar articles to protect
industries and wOrkmen making these products
the English put the tariff the necessities of life which
shipped but which do not compete with locally man
ufactured articles because such products not made in
England.
The United States simply reverse this process and
protect industries which must meet the strongest
foreign competitor and the highest tariffs articles
which not necessities of life.
It should be appreciated that days work and one
days wage will pay the American works individual pro-
portion of all the customs duties everything collected
United States such customs duties under the Ford
ney Tariff Bill being per day per capita Prior to
that many years. they averaged less than cent per

ftable employment.
With these before why the tariff not be

Ways to Increase
Fruit Production
Pruning Demands First At
tention and Must Be Done
Before Buds Open.

This is the time of the year fol
orchardists to be doing necessary
things in the orchard to increase fruit
production for next year. OF these
| pruning the trees is one thing demand
ing first attention. II. f. Payne, eX-
tension hOrticulturist for the North
Carolina State college and department
of agriculture gives some simple sug-
gestiOns for pruning the apple trees.
He states first that this pruning must
be done after the leaves fall and be-
fore the buds open in the spring. Dur
| ing this dormant season the tree Is
bare and it is easier for the operator
to see just what he is doing.
Mr.. Payne's suggestions about how
to prune are as follows;
''The primary object of pruning is
for fruit production, therefore the
proper amount of wood must be pro-
duced. After the tree has reached
bearing age, no attempt should be
made to shape it as the period Of
training the tree is the first four years
after it is planted Heavy pruning
should never be practiced during the
period of fruit production. The prac-
tice will throw the tree out Of the
production of fruit into the production
of wood, which Is very undesirable.
"In pruning apples, all dead and dis
eased limbs should be removed, cross
ing branches should be removed or
headed in, closely parallel branches
should be taken out, rangy branches
should be cut back, and the new
growth that is not needed should be
removed.
"The ends of the branches should
not be stubbed back as this causes an
excess of laterals on the branch in the
vicinity of the wound, and less sun
light will be admitted. Where a whole
branch is to be removed it should be
taken out back to the parent branch.
If the branch is growing too long and
it must be headed back, the end should
be taken out back to lateral.
Moderate dormant pruning is rec
commended as it gives the proper bal
ance between the carbohydrates, nj
trates and moisture which are essen
tial to maximum fruit production. All
fruiting wood should be conserved as
fruit production is the main object
now. Pruning wounds should not be
painted or treated in any way as they
heal more quickly if left untreated.
Stubs should never be left as this will
often result in loss of the tree by de-
cay"

Ice Supply Is Necessary
for High Quality Milk

In the production and marketing of
high-quality milk and cream a supply
of ice on the farm is almost a neces-
sity says the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture. Proper cooling
and cold storage is said to he the great
est single factor influencing the bac-
terial content of milk from the time it
leaves the cow until It reaches the
consumer.
The department says that farmers
should, if possible, put up at least ~
tons of ice in the North and two tons
in the South, for every cow in the milk
ing herd This will provide for cooling
the milk, allow for melting, and pro-
vide a little surplus for household use.
In winter, when work is not pressing
on the farm, a little time spent in an

good returns. During this season old

Superior Mash Favored
for Breeders and Layers

A good mash for breeding and laying
hens of general-purpOse breeds contain
ing only II per cent of meat scrap has
been developed by the United States
Department of Agriculture. The re-
mainder of the protein in the mash is
contained in vegetable form and the
SO per cent of ground oats and bran
gives the ratiOns the desired bulk. The
mash seems to be particularly good in
raising the hatchability and fertility of
eggs. The more stimulating rations
seem to cause an overfat condition in
general-purpOse birds, especially dur
ing the second year of production. Spe-
cial attention is now being given to
the vitamin content of eggs and their
fertility and hatchability as affected
by ratiOns.
