day at the bier of Israel Zangwill,
novelist, dramatist and Zionist,
who died yesterday Of pneumonia
following q nervous breakdown.
His death shocked the literary
world.
Zangwill had long been a prom

of letters and he was one Of the
most prominent leaders in the
Zionist movement.
Funeral Arrangements
Funeral arrangements have not
been completed as yet, but friends
desire to give him a public funeral,
and it has even been suggested
that the government might honor
him with a burial place in one OF
the national shrines.
Such plans may not be approved
by the family of the dead play
wright. however, as he himself was
OF a retiring nature and shrank
from public plaudits.
ZangwilI is perhaps best known
IN America as playwright, his
hest known play being The Melt.

1t was to American recognition
that he owed much OF his success

Last autumn he personally pro.
duced his last play, I'VE Moderns.

Let Peaches Grow Until
They Come Into Bearing

Let young peach trees grow as much
as they will until they come into bear
ing, is the advice from the New York
College of Agriculture at Ithaca. Fruit
men at the college say that the weA-
known custom Of pruning back the
wood following after the seasons first
growth is not wise.
Such pruning, they say, delays bear
ing and may cause too late and ten
der growth. This, of course, increases
the danger of winter-killing.
The open-head system seems best,
as it allows more complete renewal
than do other methods 1t provides
new, healthy wood farther down on
the main branches. The center should
be kept open at the top, and the
branches may be cut back to prevent
them from getting too tall, but other
wise little needs to be done until the
trees start to bear.
Young trees are usually pruned to a
whip when they are set, or if the side
branches are strong they are often left
and cut back to three buds. Buds
which are not wanted for future
branches may be rubbed off during the
first summer, and trees that get this
kind of treatment usually grow larger
than those that are severely cut back.

Record Growth of Dairy
Cattle by Using Camera

In the study of the growth and de-
velopment of dairy animals the United
States Department of Agriculture is
making use of the camera as a means
of recording the changes that take
place in the appearance and con-
formation of animals from calfhood
to maturity. The Photographic equip
ment and methods of record keeping
are described In Circular 371-C, just
issued
One of the features of the plan is
the use of a special background cross
ruled into six-inch squares. against
which all the animals under one year
of age are photographed. Animals
photographed in the same position
against the same background at
monthly intervals show accurately the.
changes that take place throughout
the years growth. Such pictures are
a surprisingly prolific source OF In
formation, which could hardly be pre-
served by any other method of record
keeping 1t is easy to see the value
Of such a record in breeding test

Degree of Infestation.

Prepared by the United States Department
of Agricuture)
Few people connect the cattle gruDS
found under the skin on the backs OF
cattle with the adult insects known as
heel flies or MARBLE flies. These in
sects, which are responsible for con-
siderable loss because of reduced
milk flow and 'grubby' hides, cause
great annoyance to cattle, particular
ly when laying their eggs on the legs
Of the animals. From this point, the
larvae, which are Matched in from two
and a half to six days, burrow into
the leg. After journey of several
months up the leg and through the
body they reach situation just I'M
derneath the skin on the back from
which they emerge as fully matured
grubs. These grubs, after burrowing
into the soil or under loose material,
some thirty to sixty days later devel-
'op into flies. The foregoing facts are
brought out in Department Bulletin
No. 1369-D, 1.-THE Cattle Grub or Ok
Marbles, Their Biologies and Sugges-
tons for Control" just issued by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture.
The extent of infestatiOn varies
with the age of cattle, young stock,
particularly animals from one to three
years old, almost always showing a
higher degree of infestation than ma
ture animals. Different breeds show
no difference in susceptibility.
Housing of the herd during the pc
RODS of fly activity has been known
greatly to reduce the infestations.

achieved by persistent and systematic
work by the county agent and influ-
entail citizens in cooperation with
the State College of Agriculture and
the United States Department of Ag-

One of the means Of stimulating
interest in livestock improvement
was the publication in July, 1924, of
special edition of the local paper, de-
voted entirely to the better-sires cam
paign and educational articles and IL
Illustrations showing the value Of bet
