GOOD PRUNING POINTS

Strive to Secure Lew Broad-Spreading
Branching System With Open Cen-
ter to Admit 8unllght— Cut
Limbs Close :
Farmers who wish to put their or-
chards Ip shape for profitable produc-
tion should begin pruning whenever
the wood Is not frozen In midwinter
Trees In heavy-bearing condition will
make stronger' growth If pruning Is
done during late winter and early
spring Pruning during June and July
will slightly check the rank growth on
trees that are making too much wood
growth and tend to throw them Into
bearing for tbe following yenr Dr J
C Whitten professor of horticulture In
the Missouri College of Agriculture
gives directions for winter pruning
Remove all (lend or badly diseased
limbs Clean out all ennker wounds on
Improperly Pruned Tree
the trunk and main limbs with a tree
scraper Cut well Into the rlra of
healthy wood on all sided of the wound
to get rid of the disease Then paint
the wound with common white lend
and oil pnlnt to each quart of -which
has been added one tenspoonful of bi-
chloride of mercury dissolved In tur-
pentine (about one ounce) Paint nil
canker nnd pruning wounds as soon as
mndei
Begin at the top and prune the tree
to secure a low broad-spreading
branching system with open center to
ndmtt sunlight nnd air from above Do
not remove strong lower limbs If they
con be given sufficient light from above
Aim to secure bearing branches
throughout the main body of the tree
If the tree Is shaded by too much
growth at the top the inner and lower
twigs will weaken and die Instead of
bearing fruit
Cut back the strong upward-growing
central limbs to outward-growing
sido branches This Induces the tree
to spread laterally Instead of growing
too high It admits light through the
center to fruiting branches below If
limbs cross each other or crowd badly'
thin them out enough to admit filtered
sunlight to all parts of the tree
In pruning cut limbs close so as to
leave no stub or knot A protruding
knot will not heal wound cut close
will allow the growing layer to close
over the wound
Pnlnt all wounds over one-half Inch
In diameter with the disinfecting paint
MONEY IN SUNFLOWER SEEDS
In Demand In England for Manufac-
ture of Oil — Brightens Plumage
of Varloue Fowls
There is a possibility that the sun-
flower will be included among our
regular field crops and that Instead of
struggling for a place In the rear end
of the garden It will be carefully cul-
tivated and harvested for sake of Its
seed 1
From England there comes the re-
port that a big demand exists for the
seed from which to manufacture oil
It has long been recognized that the
plant Is both hardy and productive and
If a means of utilizing the seed could
be discovered It would take rank with
the grains Poultry keepers have set
a certain vnlhe upon the seed for keep-
ing hens In condition and brightening

It has even been claimed tlint the
atalks could be preserved In a silo like
corn fodder and make a rich food for
cattle In neither case however has
any wide field of usefulness been
found
FRUIT AND VEGETABLE DROPS
Problems ' In Marketing Perishable
Products Begin With Produc-
tion — Important Factors
The problems In the marketing of
the vast amount' of perishable food
products begin as do most marketing
problems with production The vari-
ety of the fruit or vegetable grown
and the amount of this variety avail-
able often are Important factors In
shaping market demand and prices
The quality of the product as Influ-
enced by choice oi soils- fertilizers
and cultural methods Is another Im-
portant consideration affecting mar-
keting success
Since the growing of perishable
fruits and vegetables Is on a rela-
tively small-scale basis while the
large aggregate demands of the great
market centers have brought about
the existence of dealers who handle
such produce only In large lots the
questions of production which later
Influence marketing can be dealt with
satisfactorily In most cases only on
community busls This fact and the
recognition that nmny other problems
could be met satisfactorily only by co-
operating groups of producers has
led to the organization of co-operative
marketing associations In many sec-
tions devoted more or less extensively
to the production of such peiishuble
crops
BALANCED RATION FOR HENS
In Experiment Conducted by Ohio Sta
tion Fowls Gained In Weight and
Produced More Eggs
Feeders of horses cattle sheep and
hogs have claimed for years that these
animals must be fed a “balanced
ration Special attention has been
given to balnnced rations for dairy
cows By this Is meant thnt one feed
constituent should not be fed in ex-
cess while another Is lacking for the
upkeep of the animal’s body The pro-
tein must be In a certain proportion
to the sugars starches and fat in the
feed Now the hen comes In for her
share in this scientific feeding
Ten times as many eggs were pro-
duced by hens fed a well-balanced
ration as by those given only corn
wheat and oats in an experiment con-
ducted by the Ohio experiment sta-
tion The balunced ration consisted
of three parts by weight of corn and
one port-of wheat fed twice dally In
the litter and a mash mixture of two
purts meatsCrap added to two parts
ground corn and one part bran fed In
self-feeding hoppers
The 21 Barred Plymouth Rock pul-
lets In each lot received the same
Barred Plymouth Rock Pullet -
house space and treatment except for
the difference In feed The test period
lasted 140 days -
Thtf hens given the balanced ration
ato more feed which cost about 60
per cent more than the ration of corn
wheat and oats However they gained
more In weight and produced ten
times as many eggs making a net
profit while the other lot was kept at
a loss

LAYING QUALITIES OF HENS
American Breeds Most Desirable for
Producing Winter Eggs Should
Be Hatched In April
Experience libs taught thnt the lay-
ing qualities of any breed of fowls can
be much Improved by always breeding
from the best layers as well as can
the milking qualities of cows' be
brought to high standard by always
breeding from tbe best milkers In'
selecting your flock for winter laying
get n good bred-to-lay strnlnpf which-
ever breed you choose to keep Fowls
of the American breeds which are per-
Sllver Laced Wyandotte Hen
haps the most desirable for producing
winter eggs should be batched In
April They then will have ' ample
time to mature before winter sets in
If possible the pullets should have
free range during the summer to en-
able them to grow strong and hardy
frames The parent stock must of
course be healthy and it Is better If
they have a reputation as winter lay-
ers Select the earlier hatched pul-
lets and one-year-old hens tlint molt
early In the season so their new feath-
ers will get ripened up by November
This Is the fodndatlou of your winter

RAISING PIGEONS FOR PROFIT
Unless Houses Are Comfortably Warm
It It Not Wise to Grow Squabs
In Cold Weather
It Is not best to attempt to grow
squabs during the colder months unless
your houses are warm enough to pre-
vent the freezing of the eggs or the
young after being hatched - -
When the young are hatched during
the cold months they are very likely to
become chilled when the parent bird
leaves them for food' Once they are
chilled through they are quite likely
not to seek a food supply and chilled
through' they are a lost product which
cannot be regained or replaced
“I wouldn't raise pigeons they’re too
dirty” Is the complaint often made
against these beautiful birds while as
a matter of fact It Is far less work to
keep a pigeon loft and fly free from
Ill-smelling odors than a poultry house
Step into a pigeon loft where litter has
been allowed to accumulate wo or
three weeks and yon will notice merely
a slight ammonia odor but allow the
Homer Pigeon
erne condition In your poultry house
and— well you'll fully realize that It la
time to clean up
The color of the feathers of a pigeon
has little to do with lte utility value
but the color of Its skin Is of much Im-
portance as the dark-skinned squabs
are sold at a very low figure It pays
to watch one's flock very carefully and
cull out all pairs' prodneing such birds
