ORANGE PRUNING IS IMPORTANT SUBJECT TREES SHOULD HAVE PROPER CARE DURING FIRST YEARS OF THEIR LIVES, SAYS GROWER Train Up a Tree in the Way it Should Grow, and When It is Old it Will Not Depart from It. As an experienced tree builder, the writer here gives a few fundamental facts and offers a few thoughts on one of the most vital questions confronting the orange growers, writes J. S. Soule in the Cultivator. The object in pruning a fruit tree is to put it in proper physical form and healthy condition for the purpose of securing the best quality and most profitable crop of fruit and to prolong the fruit bearing life of the tree. Of all the fruit trees the orange seems to be able to stand the most neglect during the first few years and still produce abundantly, but such treatment is to the detriment of the tree and at the expense of the owner in after years. Train up a tree in the way it should grow, and when it is old it will not depart from its fruitfulness—if carefully looked after by an experienced tree builder. But you must have an experienced tree builder to look after the setting of the young trees in the ground and then stay with them for a few years at least. Where a single orchard is not large enough to require all the time of the tree builder, two or more owners can club together for this purpose. Then good, healthy nursery stock should be selected, budded from the best of fruit bearing trees. At planting is the time to begin to direct the tree aright by a proper arrangement of its main structural branches. These branches should be selected at equal distances around the main stem and a few inches from one another along the central axis of the tree. These structural granches should consist of from three to five of about equal size. A head thus formed is almost proof against splitting. The experienced tree builder will direct the formation of the tree by skillful disbudding and pinching. At the beginning of the second season the main body branches should be permitted to grow not to exceed three lateral branches and always several inchse apart. This should be followed from year to year, only that the number of laterals should be reduced annually. Where a tree is thus judiciously built up there will be but little use for the knife or shears, and but few wounds to heal, and it will come into fruit bearing in good form, and the cost of the tree building will be many times paid for. But how about the older orchards that have not been properly attended to and are in all stages of decline? This is a problem that is greatly troubling hundreds of orange growers in Southern California. Mistakes of the past are now costing them dearly, PROCLAMATION SPECIAL In the Matter of Bonds of the State of California, for development and Harbor. State of California County of Orange WHEREAS the city of Orange, St. Marys Port Beach, a harbor of the sea commissariat Newport Harbor, acts of the Legislature approves: "An Act Providing Development or Harbor, Bay, Inlet, or Existing within a Providing for the Bar Commission of visions of any such and Control of equipment, or Protection, issuance of such County title." There was on 1913, presented to filed with the Orange County signed by personal freeholders and equal in numbers per cent of the Governor of the then last proclaimed county for matter of issuance of Orange for developing and commonly known submitted to the Of all the fruit trees the orange seems to be able to stand the most neglect during the first few years and still produce abundantly, but such treatment is to the detriment of the tree and at the expense of the owner in after years. Train up a tree in the way it should grow, and when it is old it will not depart from its fruitfulness—if carefully looked after by an experienced tree builder. But you must have healthy nursery stock to build on. You can no more make a good tree out of inferior stock than you can a thoroughbred horse out of a common, half starved scrub colt. Begin right, and then keep right. To do the work intelligently it is of the utmost importance that the tree builder understand the construction of the tree and what its different parts are to perform. For instance, it is well to know that the stem or trunk is composed of five distinct divisions, viz.: heart wood, sap wood, cambium, new bark, and old (outside) bark. There is scarcely any life in the heartwood; it is simply the bone, so to speak, and adds strength and rigidity to the tree. The sap wood is that through which the water, absorbed by the roots, by capillary attraction passes upward and outward to the leaves of the tree. This water carries the minerals taken up from the soil and is mostly evaporated and passes off into the atmosphere. The minerals carried into the leaves are there converted into plant food for the nourishment, growth and fruiting of the tree. Now an important fact the writer wishes to here emphasize is that sunlight and air are absolutely necessary for the manufacture of this plant food. The healthy leaves of the tree contain millions of microscopic particles, called chlorophyll bodies, which when the sunlight and air acts upon them produce a chemical action that changes the minerals into plant food. This plant food, composed mostly of starch and sugar, then passes down through the cambium wood to the various parts of the tree where it is assimilated by the healthy tissues. Therefore the writer will again call attention to the very significant fact that the conversion of mineral into plant food cannot successfully take place in the dense shade of a tree. Awey from its nativity, and under artificial methods of culture as grown will be but little use for the knife or shears, and but few wounds to heal, and it will come into fruit bearing in good form, and the cost of the tree building will be many times paid for. But how about the older orchards that have not been properly attended to and are in all stages of decline? This is a problem that is greatly troubling hundreds of orange growers in Southern California. Mistakes of the past are now costing them dearly, and the work now becomes corrective as much as possible. In this attempt much "butchering" has been done, making the last condition worse than the first. Large limbs have been roughly sawed off, leaving stubs to rot and carry decay into the heart of the tree. Limbs have been stubbed back regardless of where the cut should have been made; cut back in the middle of the space between buds or small branches, causing the end of the stub to tassel or die back to the bud or limb. In many cases the center of the tree has been cut out, fruit bearing wood and all, leaving it in a vase or cup shape, and the remaining branches in an overlapping, matted shady codition, permitting but two narrow fruit zones, consisting of the extreme outer and inner sides of the cup shaped tree. The work of the intelligent, experienced tree builder greatly differs from this. He works with the object of retaining the health of the tree and making every branch throughout its entirety fruit bearing. This is accomplished by forming all of the tree into both a semi-sunlight and semi-shade condition; thus avoiding sun scald and supplying sufficient air circulation and sunlight to all the leaves to enable them to perform their natural function in chemically changing the minerals into plant and fruit food. Such a tree builder will always make smooth, short cuts, and he will not leave stubs to finally carry decay into the vitals of the tree. A tree thus formed will have its fruit evenly distributed throughout its branches, inside and out, and carry a larger amount of fruit, and will not have to be supported by the usual expensive method of propping. SUNFLOWER SEED FOR CHICKENS Plant sunflowers along the chicken yard, the fence, or in that waste spot, and help your hens through the molting process may be planted. There was on the 1915, presented with the Berry Orange County signed by personal freeholders and equal in number per cent of the Governor of that then last prince county for Coatman of Orange for this developing and commonly known submitted to the Office of Orange, and WHEREAS, upon signation as a pursuant to said Commissionbers each of whom two years prior did dent, elector and ty and each of within twenty days file of his appointment and subscription of office and bythe clerk of said bond in the sum Supervisors of such cities which bound Judge ofthe Supreme Court and recorded by Recorder ofand WHEREAS,said with all dis surveys to be made bythe same Bee to be improved,and collected,cost proper data andthe said harborand advantage asbythe Improver protection theregistered and examinedharbor and assesfeasible and practicalimprovement,tction to be usedimprovement.deviandthe costWHEREAS,said after a careand examinationreport tothe BoarCounty that saiddevelopedandpublicwillbebeendevelopmentthatthecostthereforemandspecificationseasibleplanandment.developmentharborandestituteandamountofwift:thesunsofDollars(1500,000)anddidmakeahenativeandfinalgationsandexamettogetherwithspecificationswithvisorsofsaidCeleighteenthdaywhich time sailedfixeda dateforwilt:theeightteenthat2o'clockp.m.BoardofSupervintaintheCityofSalaryCaliforniawhichthirtynorlessofthefillingofsalesfiledandthatthenbeensetforthe1918.tobepubl DailyEveningR publications theraised hearing whomadeasnowapublicationnowtheclerkofthe This plant food, composed mostly of starch and sugar, then passes down through the cambium wood to the various parts of the tree where it is assimilated by the healthy tissues. Therefore the writer will again call attention to the very significant fact that the conversion of mineral into plant food cannot successfully take place in the dense shade of a tree. Awey from its nativity, and under artificial methods of culture as grown in Southern California, the orange tree has a habit of sending unward growth of rank shoots. These are generally called "suckers" for the reason that they will absorb and rob surrounding sister branches of much of the life giving elements that belong to them. If permitted to grow these lusty "suckers" will produce a dense shady inner portion of the tree, shutting out necessary sunlight. Then follows decline and death to many of the robbed and smothered branches. To still further aggravate this condition, each annual growth, with its weight of fruit, bears heavily down upon and covers up that of the year before. Thus generation after generation the outside branches overlap the dead and the dying. Neglect of feeding and cultivation will increase this deterioration; but no amount of feeding and cultivation will ever bring back to life the dead and the dying. Now in view of these fundamentals the logical conclusion of the intelligent orchardist must necessarily be that the knowledge and skill of the experienced tree builder is indispensable. To those who are setting out young orange trees we will repeat: begin right, and the keep right. Orchardists who have not the time or qualifications to do the work themselves should secure the services of SUNFLOWER SEED FOR CHICKENS Plant sunflowers along the chicken yard, the fence, or in what waste spot, and help your hens through the molting season. Sunflowers may be planted any time in Southern California and they occupy the ground but three months in the year. Sunflower seeds contain an oil that seems to help the hens throw off their old feathers and put on a new coat, but the seed should be fed in moderation or a second molt may result. Grow the giant varieties, which, in this favored region produce heads fifteen and eighteen inches across. They love a sandy loam but will grow well in any soil when supplied liberally with water. Get the fowls used to the seed gradually. A few weeks before molting time give the chickens a light meal two or three times a week only. Gradually increase this to a meal every day. Sunflower seeds may be fed in any convenient form, either scattered in a litter, fed whole with grain or crushed and stirred in with the mash. The seeds make an excellent winter food, but the seeds should be fed in moderation at all times except in the molting season. Anaheim Gazette, per year, $1.50, payable in advance.

(T.B.TALBERT, Chairman of the Board of Supervisors of Orange County, California). Attest: J.M.BACKS. County Clerk and Ex-officio Clerk of the Board of Supervisors of Orange County, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the Board of Supervisors to ARSENIC FOR WEEDS To save crops on hundreds of acres of land in California on which cultivation has been stopped because of weeds, George P. Gray, Assistant Professor of Entomology at the University of California, has issued a preliminary report on his extensive investigation. "The cultivation of crops has been actually abandoned on hundreds of acres of some of the most fertile land in the state," Professor Gray states, "and the production of thousands of acres more is rapidly decreasing through the increase and spread of Johnson grass and wild morning-glory. "None of the root-absorption experiments seemed to point the way for control of wild morning-glory on agricultural land at a reasonable expense and without serious injury to the soil. Incidental to the main object of the experiments, the control of the wild morning-glory on agricultural land data have been obtained which shows the superiority of arsenic as a soil sterilizer. All of the Centerville plots to which an ounce or more of arsenic trioxide had been applied per square yard were barren of all vegetation, except wild morning-glory, for fourteen months, notwithstanding the leaching by the rains of two winters." The leaf-absorption experiments have definitely established one fact of importance from a scientific as well as from a practical standpoint, namely that a dilute solution of sodium arsenite applied only to the aerial parts of the wild morning-glory under certain conditions will destroy both the aerial parts of the plant and the underground parts to a depth of several feet."

A NO LIMIT GAME With Burleson over the telephones and Hines over the railroads, may we not remark the matchless character of business heads now in charge of this distraught government. They raised wages, as they explained, to meet the high cost of living; then they boosted all kinds of railroad and telephone rates, in order to finance the advanced wage roll. Now they have granted another raise in wages to meet the added expense of rates and higher cost of living; following which they will be compelled to inflate the rates to produce the added expense of wages, etc., etc., ad libitum. They seem to be playing at no-limit, with the public buying the chips. Even the old-fashioned game of draw gave a man some chance of an even break. H. O. Henderson, of Anaheim, who for several months has been actively associated with the Orange County Automobile Club, as secretary and assistant manager, will return to his private business beginning June 1. Henderson took up work with the club when Capt. Ralph entered the army and serving as secretary while he was in the service. Since Ralph's return Henderson has acted as assistant secretary.
