The new type of government has
worked very satisfactorily in Cleve-

were forced to get on the band

Mark Hanna once said the best

with two dead members. That is
the point to the city manager plan
it has individual responsibility from
the city manager himself down to

Farm Bureau Members
Adopt Root Graft
Method Tree Planting
prices Paid friday

A. w. Black, of Winthrop, is one
OF those who is profiting from the
work of the experiment station. He
is to plant 500 apple trees which are
root CRAFTS, this year. They are to
be planted in rows four feet apart
and will be placed 10 or IL inches
apart. The trees are one year old
seedlings which were grown in a
nursery last year. The past winter
they were granted to either Mackin-
tosh or Stark varieties. He will set
them IN the garden to grow for two
years, as in a commercial nursery,
after which he will transplant the
best in his orchard.
The reasons farmers profit by this
method are, first, root CRAFTS can be
bought for less than one, quarter of
what the regular two-year- old trees
will cost; second, 1t has been proved
by experiments conducted by the
Maine Agricultural Experiment Sta
ton at Highmoor, that the root sys-
tenn on young trees is a marked in
f1uence over the development of that
tree; third trees that fail to make
average growth during the first two
years will be below the average dur
ing the whole life and an orchard set
with such trees would be unprofita-
BILE from a commercial standpoint.

to adopt the same methods of tree

POULTRY NOTES

It's a good plan to start culling
the flock with the chicks, by killing
the weak sickly ones that will never
repay their cost.
For flock that Is kept penned up.
this is an excellent egg making feed
to give two or three times a week;
chopped or ground alfalfa steamed
until soft. and rnived with corn meal
wheat middlings and bran.
Toe picking Is a vice of chicks that
comes from ver-crowding, or lack of
protein feed-like milk or meat scraps
and failure to give them green
stuff. 1t may develop into outright
cannibalism unless ~romptly stopped.
Take the first little sinners away
from the others. And IL this doesn't
end the evil, get some bitter aloes at
the drug store and rub on the feet Of
all tho chicks.
To keep turkeys inside a fence, tie
a short light piece Of board across
the back of each one, with strips of
cloth fastened to the ends and going
around the birds wings-the board
being about as long as the thickness
of the turkeys body from side to
side. This prevents raising the wings

extra fine peaches but no market
which would take them as fast as
they ripened at satisfactory price,
as they were too good to be sold for
canning.
SO early one morning we loaded an

peaches and started for York Harbor.
We also took couple of well laden
branches to prove we were selling ma
tive fruit When possible l sold di-
