After the thing was begun, perfectly 
clean culture of the orchard was kept up, 
just as if it were a field of corn, with regu¬ 
lar plowing each year, which encourages 
deep root growth, as well as liberates the 
nutriment in the soil. And each year in 
the fall a cover crop was seeded in—after 
the soy beans they used rye; after this, 
clover, and so on, plowing them in in the 
spring always. Thus the earth became 
rich in humus, and all the nitrogen that 
the trees required was added to the soil 
naturally instead of artificially. 
He said that trees of this sort might, of 
course, be severely pruned their first year, 
and all fruit sacrificed — for sometimes it 
is necessary to cut them back to nothing 
more really than stumps of branches. But 
even where such severe measures are 
necessary he advised doing a little at a 
time, because very severe pruning at one 
time will induce a tremendous crop of the 
lush growth that they call “water-sprouts” 
— and these are not desirable. So, even 
at the beginning, a little every year until 
the desired form is reached — and then a 
little every year to keep this form and 
keep the trees toned up and healthy and 
alert. It is the old-fashioned way of 
pruning severely about every fourth year 
and neglecting to prune at all the years be¬ 
tween that is largely responsible for a run¬ 
out orchard.

(Continued from page 286) 
charcoal is also a good remedy. If the 
disease turns out to be only diarrhoea, 
they will recover; otherwise, they should 
be killed at once and the bodies burned. 
The fifth ailment is the tapeworm, which 
shows itself by the drowsy look of the 
birds and also in the droppings. The 
remedy is 15 to 30 drops of liquid ex¬ 
tract of Male Fern given morning and 
evening before feeding (the small dose is 
for the small birds). 
The young turkeys by this time are fast 
reaching maturity, and those that are to 
grace the Thanksgiving board should be 
separated from the others and their feed 
increased. They will gain more by being 
allowed their freedom, and given all they 
will eat, a corn and wheat ration proving 
very satisfactory. This should be in¬ 
creased gradually until they are having all 
they can eat both morning and night; in 
addition, provide a noon feed of ground 
oats, corn meal and a little buckwheat meal 
mixed with milk. 
The English method of feeding a mix¬ 
ture of ground oats and milk in the morn¬ 
ing, whole oats at night, and, in some 
cases, adding boiled vegetables or table 
scraps and a little suet and barley, pro¬ 
duces fine, plump, hard, white flesh, which 
for home consumption is superior to the 
fat, yellow-meated birds found on the 
market.
