Developing Implements
for Use in the Orchard

1t is always problem to avoid
barking the tree trunks and tearing
the branches when blowing and disk
ing an orchard. This is especially
true when the work Is done with
teams and the ordinary field imple-
ments. To solve this problem, some
of the manufacturers have given spe-
cial attention to the development Of
orchard implements. When these i'm
plements are used with tractor that
may be kept under perfect control
when used under trees very little
damage is done.
Special plows for orchard use are
built very low, without levers extend
Ing above the frame, with the axle
on the underside of the beams and
with a very narrow truck. : The en-
tire design is to reduce the barking
of the trees to minimum and make
it possible to avoid catching limbs in
operation. Both moldboard and disk
plows may be secured for orchard use.
In localities where the soil becomes
extremely hard or In localities where
there is sticky gumbo type OF soil
the disk type of pillow will give better
results than the moldboard type.

Best Time to Purchase
Different Dairy Feeds

A survey of the various feed mar
kets indicates that wheat bran usually
reaches bottom price in June, July and
August; linseed oil meal in May, June
and July; cottonseed meal in August,
September, January and February, and
gluten feed in May, June and July.
BY making out their feed budgets ac
cordingly and buying what feed they
need at the proper time, dairymen not
only can make an important saving in
feed costs but also will probably feed
a better ration, it is pointed out by
G. S. Rhode, dairy extension specialist
of the college of agriculture, Univer-
sity of Illinois. Illinois dairymen
should, and do, produce most of the
feed that is necessary for their cows,
but In most cases 1t Is advisable to
balance the homegrown grains with
high protein feeds. 1t therefore is to
the advantage of the dairymen to
study the feed markets and deter
mine when these feeds can be bought
at the best price, he said.

Practical Suggestions
for Pruning Grapevines

Prof. Joseph Oskamp of the Cornell
College of Agriculture gives the fol-
lowing directions for training young
grapevines:
"At planting time, and the year
after, young grapevines should be cut
back to two buds and tied to stakes
for support The second summer
each vine should send out cane long
enough to be tied to the top wire of
a. trellis. This trellis, IL the Kniffin
system of training is used, should
have two wires, one at height of
five feet and the other three feet
from the ground. Number 8 or 10
wire is generally used and strung on
posts set % feet apart.
'In the summer after the third
pruning, canes will develop from the
one tall trunk left, and all of these
should be removed in the winter
pruning except two at the top wire
and two at the lower wire; these four
canes should be tied to the wires to
the right and left at right angles to
the upright trunk, and should be cut
back to four buds each.'

Movement Fostered in Ten

Hog Cholera Is

If the machinery is to be kept In

he points out. "A farmer cannot af-

machinery that is just about ready to
break down." he declares. Suppose
that one Is using a cultivator with
dull shovels and wabbly beams. II
weather conditions are favorable

reasonably mellow he can do good
work with such a cultivator. On the
other hand, If the weather is rainy for
a week just when cultivating should
be done. the ground is beaten down
hard and has a healthy growth of
weeds when it dries. Now with such a
cultivator it is impossible to do good
work.

For Safety Against This ALL

Are Needed.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
A recent investigation of the hog
cholera situation by the United States
Department of Agriculture reveals sur
prising carelessness among farmers In
dealing with the disease. The effec-
tiveness of the preventive-serum treat
ment has given many swine owners a
feeling of security which is not real.
yet without proper safeguards" de-
clares DR.. U. G. Houck, in charge of
hog-cholera control, "the disease Is
just as dangerous today as it ever
was"
For safety against this disease 1t
is necessary to observe certain precau-
lions. Isolate all new stock, keeping
1t apart from other hogs for a period
of at least two weeks. This precau-
ton applies especially to hogs pur-
chased at public sales or other sources
likely to spread infection. Permit no
sick hogs to roam at large. Keep hog
lots properly fenced and maintain the
fences in good repair. Burn or bury
deeply the carcasses of animals that
die on the farm. Dead animals lying
above ground attract dogs. Many
outbreaks have been traced to portions
of diseased carcasses carried from
place to place by dogs. Do not at
tempt to hide the existence of the dis
ease, since every hidden center of in
lection Is menace to surrounding
farms.
The preventive-serum treatment is
dependable insurance against hog chol-
era. but this treatment, 1t should be re-
membered, is a preventive and not
cure. By adopting the foregoing safe
guards swine owners may largely re-
duce the loss from hog cholera which
last year exceeded $20,000,000.
