Successful Method Of Walnut Budding Budding is as old as horticulture, but slightly different forms of budding are being discovered which make for better into bearing) havein success, writes Ivan L. Leech in the California Cultivator. Having had experience with serious cases of wood decay at the place where the black walnuts have been cut off and grafted (often ruining the tree before it came into bearing) have decided it would be best to do all top working by budding, thus reducing the chances of decay to a minimum. I have been told by authorities that walnut budding was not as uniformly successful as grafting. But by making use of the experience of others and trying out all the known methods in variations, the following method I have found very successful, and it should give good results in the hands of any painstaking and skillful budder: To Phillip Bancroft, successful walnut grower and nurseryman of Walnut Creek is due the credit of evolving this method. It was he who furnished the ideas to work with and the Bancroft Fruit Farm of Modesto to work upon. In budding walnuts, the buds must be prepared before they are wanted. Select shoots of the current season's growth; cut off the tips and the leaves, leaving a part of the leaf stock attached. Do not cut the bud sticks at this time, but leave them on the tree for about two weeks, or until such a put in very late should not be forced out, as the new growth does not have time to harden before killing frosts come. The reason for forcing buds out is that though the dormant buds go into the winter alive, some are sure to die before spring. LOWERING OUR TARIFF The suggestion of Sir Joshua Stamp, one of the British members of the Dawes commission, that America should lower its tariff so that Germany can sell us cheap goods and make money to pay its reparations to France, Belgium and Britain, has certainly gotten a rise from the press in the United States, but not the kind of a rise that Sir Joshua would like to have obtained. Even many of the leading newspapers which are usually independent when the consideration of the tariff is concerned, are taking pleasure in taking a fall out of Sir Joshua's startling suggestion. The eminent Briton's suggestion has undoubtedly succeeded in solidifying tariff sentiment in the United States, 'The Chicago Tribune declares that the tariff is working splendidly, producing revenue, and erducing direct taxation. The Tribune adds that the suggestion that America reduce its tariff so that Germany can pay reparations to the allies is "beyond patience." Says the Tribune: "In foreign conception the United States is a woodlot in which any country may cut wood. Americans are aborigines who are in luck if they are left the acorns. China has to fix its tariff as the alien powers say. Now we are to be the white China and fix our tariff for European revenue." The Washington Star, independent, declares that it is not at all sure that all the money Europe made by shipping us cheap goods would be used for reparations and debt payment. Says the Star: "If Europe can become richer through a reduction of the American protective tariff it is likely that America will become poorer. For not all the money that the European manufacturers and traders make through selling their goods in America will come back to this country in the form of debt payments, thereby reduc- left him with the Orange county, while leading crops, ought a slogan equal to Orange county pepper growers, nut (sometimes called slogan tucked) twists his red necktie man and manager moment in styles) that slogan tucked.

It was he who furnished the ideas to work with and the Bancroft Fruit Farm of Modesto to work upon. In budding walnuts, the buds must be prepared before they are wanted. Select shoots of the current season's growth; cut off the tips and the leaves, leaving a part of the leaf stock attached. Do not cut the bud sticks at this time, but leave them on the tree for about two weeks, or until such a time as the leaf stock can be easily pushed off, leaving a healed scar beneath. When they reach this condition they are ready to be used. Many failures in walnut budding have been due to a poor selection of buds. Do not use buds that have a decidedly humped area of bark at the base of the bud, as they cannot be tied smoothly in place. Very small buds or buds on a stem should not be used. Large double buds have a much better chance of growing than others. The style of budding that we have found the most satisfactory is a patch bund inserted beneath the bark, in place of removing a patch of bark from the stock, as is often done in budding walnuts. To remove the patch use a budding knife with a thin pointed bone handle, the handle to be used in peeling off the patch. Make two parallel cuts, one on each side of the bud, far enough apart to give a large patch. Then two cuts are made around the bud stick, about an inch above and below the bud. The patch is then peeled off with the handle. Examine the under side of the patch. If the little green core of the bud has been pulled out in removing the patch, the bud will not grow and should not be used. If it is found to be in place, next shape the patch by trimming the base to a point, holding the knife away as to make the patch thin at the bottom by cutting off some of the outer bark. This exposes the cambium of h etpatch on the outside, so that it will come in contact with the cambium on the under side of the bark of the stock when the patch is inserted. The budding should be done in the current season's growth in a shoot making a vigorous growth and when the bark is slipping good. The ordinary T-shaped cut is used. The cross cut must go nearly half way around, or the patch will not fit smoothly. The bark is then raised with the knife handle and the patch slipped into place. These operations should be done as quickly as possible to prevent drying. Much depends upon the tying. No matter how good the bud, it will not grow unless properly tied. Use "sixply" cotton twine. Place the middle of the string around the shoot so as to cross the patch just at the base of the bud. Press down firmly with the thumbs at the base of the bud, at the same time drawing both ends of the string tight. Make a hitch at the back of the shoot so the string will not slip. Then, using one end of the string continue to wrap tightly to a little below budder: The Washington Star, independent, declares that it is not at all sure that all the money Europe made by shipping us cheap goods would be used for reparations and debt payment. Says the Star: "If Europe can become richer through a reduction of the American protective tariff it is likely that America will become poorer. For not all the money that the European manufacturers and traders make through selling their goods in America will come back to this country in the form of debt payments, thereby reducing America's own war debt and American taxes. An appreciable share of these earnings will stick fast to the coffers of Europeans. "The American consumer is doing pretty well just now. Wages are good and employment is not lacking." But suppose the tariff is lowered and cheaper European goods are permitted to flood the country. When then will consumers, the farmers, the manufacturers find themselves? Of what avail if prices are cheap, if they have little money to purchase? The answer is that it is far better to protect American markets, which after all consume the heaviest proportion of American production, than to turn those markets over to the cheap goods of the foreigner, with a consequent reduction of America's own output." BUILDING HOMES Real estate experts tell us that the building activities which are going forward all over the country constitute the greatest building program ever undertaken by any nation, ancient or modern. Last year the amount of new building in the United States totalled five and three-quarters billions. It is freely predicted that the total for 1925 will go over the six billion mark. There are, of course, several reasons for this. The normal building program received a setback during World War and, in some sections, we have not entirely caught up. Then the cities of the nation are developing rapidly and this is necessitating building improvements of various kinds. Of course the giant buildings in centers of the various cities are the most imposing when we figure up the financial totals, but it is even more satisfactory to consider the number of modest homes which are springing up in every progressive city and town. People who formerly lived in downtown tenement districts are now moving to suburbs and buying homes. They can do this first because they are making higher wages, and second because the cheap automobile and the bus line have made it possible for them to get down from the outskirts of the city in a hurry. As the automobile and other means of rapid transit develop, the cities and towns continue to expand outward as well as skyward. This is a healthy sign and is one which makes the development of the automobile worth while. The more homeowners and homelovers there are in America, less chance for the Much depends upon the tying. No matter how good the bud, it will not grow unless properly tied. Use "sixply" cotton twine. Place the middle of the string around the shoot so as to cross the patch just at the base of the bud. Press down firmly with the thumbs at the base of the bud, at the same time drawing both ends of the string tight. Make a hitch at the back of the shoot so the string will not slip. Then, using one end of the string continue to wrap tightly to a little below the bottom of the "T." Make a double hitch, so there will be no danger of the string coming loose, and with the other end of the string wrap tightly to the top of the "T" and secure as before. It takes time to waxe the buds, but we have found that it pays, as the percentage of buds that grow is much higher when waxed. Common grafting wax seems to injure the bud. Paraffin or parawax seems to be just right. The parawax should be only hot enough to keep it liquid. If too hot, it will kill the bud. It can be best applied with a one-inch paint brush, covering the bud and all cut surfaces with a light cont. A common five-gallon oil can makes a good stove to heat the parawax. Cut a hole in the top in which to place the receptacle containing the wax, a hole in one side for a draft, a wire bale with which to carry it, and the stove is complete. If the shoot budded into is long and heavy, part of the end should be cut off. But only just enough to prevent breakage. Where this is not done, a break often occurs, causing the bud to dry and die. In about three weeks the strings may be cut off. Do not cut the strings too soon. They may be left on until they begin to cut into the bark without any damage. We have used rubber strips to tie the buds, with fair success; but are not sure what will prove to be the best size as yet. Rubber does not have to be cut off as does string. At the time the strings are cut, unless the budding was done late in the fall, the shoots should be cut back within an inch or two of the bud. This will force it to make some growth at once. Buds MANAGERS OF FAIR SEEKING A SLOGAN Large Reward and Much Glory Offered for Suggestion For fifty years the fair has been the leading annual event in the community. Just as the old town government in New England was a forerunner of the type of national government, the local fair has frequently expanded its scope and become a state fair or a national and international exposition. Such slogans as "Meet me at the Fair" have had nation-wide popularity in song and story and have danced joyfully on the tips of ten million tongues. So the slogan has faithfully served the fair and has been adopted into the family as a sister. What is a fair without its slogan? Orange County Fair has become a fixed festival in the California cycle. Think of September and you think of the fair in Orange county (September 22-26). It has a reputation established far and wide, and will undoubtedly be bigger and better than ever this fall. But alas! It has as yet no slogan. Manager A. M. Stanley is back from his annual vacation, but whatever he caught there, he has not brought home a satisfactory slogan. That kind is mighty shy.

The Ad Club, the Farm Bureau and the gentle reader have all been invited to offer suggestions. It is up to Orange county people to popularize a fair that will house the best in farm products, the latest in fashions, the newest in household inventions, the brightest in bright lights, the buckingest in bronchos, and other things too numerous to slogan. Why I believe the right slogan could be worth a million dollars," enthused the thinker at the courthouse. Whereupon a young author in the party slipped away to his study. Suggestions come in every day, but more are needed to take the crease out of the manager's broad brow. "Visit Orange County Fair, California's Great White Spot," writes one amusement-loving man of financial connections. The next one apparently came from a popular musician: "A heap of fruit, a dash of jazz, the best old fair that ever was." Another writes, "Give us music, a kicking mule, a Volstead snake, a tent of foolishness, a pavilion of industry and art; Let Orange County Fair have the biggest time, as well as the biggest pumpkin." "Nothing doing," exploded Stanley. "You can't find any pumpkin premiums in our book."

"I would like to see these words on every signpost: 'The fairest fare to Orange County Fair.' That one, according to the manager ought to be enough to make everybody fall in line.

The figures are especially interesting just now in view of the success that has been had in reducing federal expenditures and in the determined effort being made further to reduce the cost of operating the national government. In the year 1923, according to the Department of Commerce, the cost of operating the state governments was $1,-310,332,793, or $11.95 per capita. This included cost of operation and maintenance, interest and outlays. In 1918 during the war, the total payments of the states were $565,485,937, a per capita outlay of $5.47. In 1922, the total payments were $1,280,319,931, a per capita cost of $11.82. As shown by the figures above, the cost is still increasing.
