Too Many Branches Cut
Off Trees First Season

Many orchard growers, In an eff
fort to make their trees appear
properly pruned, rem6ve entirely too
many branches the first year, says
T. ]. Talbert, chairman of the hor-
ticulture department of the Missouri
College of Agriculture. This s
ally happens when growers take
possession of an orchard In which
pruning has been badly neglected, or
when they appreciate too late the
value Of pruning In their orchards.
This severe pruning after years Of
negligence may throw out Of bal
ance the top and root system and
produce a heavy growth Of wa
ter sprouts which may result In lit
tie or no fruit development. 1t is
a much wiser procedure to prune
only moderately the first year, re-
moving and thinning out the small
branches In the top Of the tree, here
and there In the center, and on the
sides In order to open up the tree
for the admittance of sunlight and
air.
1t is seldom advisable or neces-
sary In the neglected orchard to
remove limbs larger than IL inches
In diameter. 1t is true that occa-
sionally limbs larger than this will
be found growing In undesirable
places.-Missouri Farmer.

Technocracy, or perhaps 1t might
better be termed democracy" has
appeared In the poultry industry,
but the owners of Illinois 100000
locks need not resort to 1t In or
der to get benefits, says FL. II. Alp,
poultry extension specialist of the
college of agriculture, University Of
Illinois. All they need do Is fol-
low the Illinois poultry sanitation
plan as outlined and advocated by
the college, he said.
democracy" is Alps name for
the new system under which hens
r kept in individual metal coops
assembled in battery form. In MI
ami, Fla, for instance, 10000 laying
hens were placed in batteries in a
5OO-room hotel. The concentration
of so many birds In one building is
made possible through the use Of
batteries equipped with I%abor1saving
devices for cleaning the equipment
and caring for the birds. The hen
Is even deprived Of an opportunity
to admire her egg, for as soon as
1t is laid, 1t rolls into a trough to
be gathered.
The practical lesson in this for
flock owners is the strict sanitary
conditions under which the hens are
kept, Alp pointed out. Much the
same benefits which this close con-
finement gives in the form of disease
and parasite control can be obtained
by Illinois flock owners through fol-
lowing the colleges poultry SANTA

ter the Worlds Fair regatta after
competing here in the Presidents

The array Of racing talent as
sured for the Tri-City and the
Presidents Cup regattas has
exhilarated activities for both of
these events.
Other Stars Coming
The Coast Guard cutter, Apache,
has been assigned a patrol boat
for the Tri-City by Admiral H. G..
Hamlet, who plans personally to
attend the races.
Capt. H. D. King, acting COM
missioner of Light House Services,

tender Mayflower to mark out
Herald Harbor race course with
buoyS.
Word from the Coast Guard
indicates that one of the fasclnat-
ing events at the Tri-City will be
the pulling" race between crews
of the Coast Guard for the pull
ing" championship of Chesapeake
Bay.
Commodore William c. Shelton,
general chairman of the commit
tee in charge Of the Tri-Clty,
promises an interesting announce
ment next week, when he will re.
veal the names of drivers ana
craft for the Speedboat races.
First Aid Stations
DR.. oscar B. Hunter, fleet sur
geon for the Corinthian Yacht
Club, has been appointed chair,
man of the safety and first aid
committee for the Presidents Cup
regatta. "Doc" will have a hos
pital boat on the Potomac during
the big event, and will see to 1t
that first aid stations are set up
and maintained on an emergency
efficiency basis on shore.
A high light of the recent Co
rinthian Yacht Club meeting was
the presentation to the club OF
the Washington Times Trophy by
Commodore R. Lyman Sexton,
won by the club for the largest
turnout of craft for the recent
first annual spring marine dress
parade. The trophy, a beautiful
electric clock, will adorn the walls
of the clubhouse. Because OF his
remarkable presentation speech
DR.. Sexton now classifies as a
top-grade orator.
A New Slogan
The organization of the various
committees functioning for the
success of the Presidents Cup
regatta is so perfect that every
craft owner in the nation soon
will mention the regatta to a
friend.
It is all result of a telephone
conversation held recently by
John A. Remon with a friend.
When the general chairman Of
the regatta speaks he always
starts something. His remark to
the friend was:
"When you mention WASH
ingtOn, mention the Presidents
Cup regatta"
It has now become the slogan
for the regatta and everybody is
doing it.
