Farm Notes.
PRUNING SUGGESTIONS
If your trees require a twenty
foot ladder to gather the fruit, it is
time to head back the center
of the tree. Head to a fairly
large limb that grows to the outside.
This facilitates harvesting and
spraying.
Where the ends of the lower
branches touch the ground, do not cut
the entire branch oiF at the body of
the tree unless absolutely necessary.
Head the branch back to a smaller
branch or twig that is growing up
ward. Suckers should be removed, ex
cept where they will fill out an open
mde. Then they Bhould be clipped
back severely and ma'de to bear
fruit.
Remove dead and injured branch
es, and branches that are crossing.
This gives the fruiting wood that re
mains a better chance, and results
ip better and larger fruit.
. Where Illinois canker is present
in the orchard, special precautions
tire necessary.
Never leave a stub in pruning.
' Directions for pruning and the
renovation of an orchard may be had
from Extension Bulletins 29 and HO
of the Bulletin Clerk, University
Farm, Lincoln.
, . RAISING A CALF ON SKIM MILK
It is now fairly well understood,
says the College of Agriculture, that
calves properly raised on skim milk
are equally as growthy, thrifty, and
vigorous as those raised upon whole
rhilk or those allowed to run with
their dams. In fact the skim milk
calf will often times Bhow u more
rugged framework than a calf rais
ed on whole milk.
Except for the fat that has been
removed, skim milk is identical in
composition to whole milk. When
whole milk is taken into the calf's
body, the fat of the milk is used to
produce heat to keep the calf warm
u.hu uutu tu lunn ootiy iat. mis
same function can be performed very
jhuch more cheaply by starchy
grains Buch as corn, Kafir corn,
and oats.
. The protein in milk, which is the
constituent most concerned in mus
cular growth and the building up
pf the vital organs, Is equally as
abundant in skim milk as in whole
milk.
PHEPARDENESS IN POULTRY RAISING
Prepare now for a good crop of
chickens.
Hatch early avoid; late summer
stock.
i. Early winter layers should bo out
of the shell early.
A pullet hatched now is worth
three in June.
Avoid twenty-second day chicks.
Helping chicks from tho shell is in
viting trouble.
Darken tho incubator to keep
chicks quiet and induce Bleep.
RemOVG Chicks from f ho inpnlintni-
when all are dry and do not feed for
do nours. college ot agriculture.
HIGH SCHOOL STOCK JUDGING CONTEST
The second annual state high school
stock judging contest of thq College
of Agriculture will bo held at tho
University farm, Saturday, April 1.
Tho silver loving cup offered bv the
Nebraska Improved Live Stock
Breeders' Association, which was
won last year by tho Oakland high
school, will be up again for competi
tion. Any high school in tho state
offering instruction in agriculture
,is invited to send a team of three
men. The teams will be permitted
, to come to the College on the day
previous in order to receive prac
tice in judging various breeds of
live stock.
GOPHERS COST US $2,000,000
The pocket gopher causes an an
nual loss to Nebraska's agriculture
of at least two million dollars.
Among the methods recommended
for the destruction of this pest are
trapping, poisoning, shooting, and
the protection of its natural ene
mies, such as tho short-eared owl,
marsh hawk, weasels, and bull
snakes.
Detailed information concerning
trapping and poisoning may be had
from a special circular, upon ap
plication to tho College of Agricul
ture, Lincoln.
ANOTHER AGRICULTURAL AGENT
With the organization of Sheri
dan county for agricultural agent
'work,. Nebraska now has nine such
agents or farm demonstrators in
the field. A. C. North of the College
of Agriculture, a man of practical
experience, has boon elected to tho
position of agent.

WHISKEY MEN DE-
FRAUD QOVERNMENT.
In collecting its share of the ill
born liquor profits the government
has its troubles. A great con
ipiracy was unearthed at Fort
Braith, Ark., this fall, where a
gang of men were in the business
of sneaking liquor onto the market'
without paying the government
tax. Prominent among the con
Jpirators were several government
employees, guagers and revenue'
agents. Contact Avith the liquor
business had corruptedall of them',
io that they were defrauding the
government without compunc-!
lions. Tney Jiaa used every metn-;
od, including the wholesale use of
cancelled revenue stamps.
Seven of the gang were found
guilty and given fines of $1,000!
Bach and jail sentences from six!
months to two years. Twenty more)
of the same outfit arc to have;
trials in January. j
ALCOHOL NOT A MEDICINE.!
One of the officials of the great,
lanitarium at Battle Creek, Mich.,,
declares that while they treat 800'
patients a day they have never'
used an ounce of alcohol during'
tho 48 years of the history of the
institution. He says:
"Forty per cent of our artcrlo scle-'
rosie Is produced by alcohol and Is
not curable. Sixty-two per cent of
Brlght's disease Is produced by alco
hol and incurable. Ninety-two per
cent of cancer ot the stomach is due
to alcohol.
"You think a man pays for his glass
ot boer when he pasBes his nickel over
tho bar. Ho does not His baby pays.
rhe law of inheritance is inexorable.
The baby 1b what his father was. It
i man destroys his brain by alcohol,
If his body wantes and degonoratos
through drink, Wb children and his
children's children will have dwarfed
minds and dcncgcratc bodies. Kill
the saloon and save tho babies."
ENFORCE LIQUOR
LAW IN OMAHA..
On Novemiber 3rd, Omaha had
its first jury trial hi police court
in a number of years. It was a
case against Graham & Ford, sa-
loonkecpers who were charged
with selling Whiskey and beer af
ter eight o'clock, and tine jury
brought in a verdiot of guilty,
uftor only fifteen minutes of de-'
liberation.
This was the first jury convic
tion of a liquor dealer ever had in
Omaha on the charge of violating
the 8 o'clock law, and the names,
of the juryman deserve to be
placed on the tablet of fame. They
were: xj. ai. Edgerly, diaries
Maneurn. H. G. Kellv. J. M. Hard
ing, George W. Sumner and Ed
win A. iJOW.
Heretofore 'dismissals or huncr
juries have resulted from tho in
dustry ot saloon men m packing
juries.
The defmidaratn rimninr n bii-
loon at 12th and Parnam streets
were opuly selling liquor during
tho electric parade, and even had
u Keener out in iroiu soliciting
business. Such wnn tlin hnlrlnpflq
and effrontery of saloon men in
uauum wnere they nan lost tue
fear of successful prosecution.
The penalty imposed was a fine
of $100 apiece for tho defendants
and tho immediate cancellation of
the Baloon license. All of which.'
shows that the law can be en
forced. The states of Georgia and Ala
bama have passed laws prohibit-,
itig tho printing or circulating of!
liquor advertising.
In North Carolina prohibition
went into effect in 1908. Up to
that tlime the state was spending
$2,000,000 por year for education.
Jtow it is spending $6,000,000.
The Saturday of the great Chi
cago dry parade there were only
forty-sorca arrests for drunken
ness, and on the nooct day, being
the ftrajt closed Sunday, there wero
orxy sixteen, making a total of
sixty-tkroe for tho two days, as
compared with 243, the former
average for theso two days of tho
week.
"When vou hear of automobile
accidents, investigate and see how
many of tho drivers wore under
tho influence of drinJc, and how
many were canrying extra bottles
in their cars. TJie largo number of
accidents from this cause leads to
much criticism of drivers who are
both careful and sober. Sort out
the drink aefjioV'iris and put them
on record.
Tho brewers and saloonkeepers
of Chicago organized a big parade
,a week or so ago, as a protest
against Sunduy closing, Mayor
Thompson in a opefich, u few days
later declared tfiat it was anarch
istic, and that tiro performance
has embittared many men against

AUTOS HELPTHE CAUSE
SUFFRAGISTS WIN CONVERTS IN
COUNTY TOURS.
RICHARDSON WELL COVERED
Women Met a.-:! V.':;.-cr:J by U'.;x cf
Commercial Clubs Auto Speak
Ing to Be Feature of
Summer Campaign.
Tho automobile tour through Rich
ardson county last week was a suc
cess. In all excepting one town the
ladies were met by deputations and
cordially welcomed. When the autos
arrived at dinner time, either the local
commercial club, city officials or
other organizations, made the tourists
their guests and showed every evi
dence of good will to them and to tho
cause they represent. Also the towns
wero decorated by tho merchants.
Richardson county men tried, to show
tho visiting delegations they wero
welcome, and if music, feastlnc, ban
ners and universal good nature indi
cate the popularity of a cause and
those who stand for It, the suffragists
can be sure of Richardson county. At
Stella and Shubert tho suffragists
wero met by committees. The speak
ers were introduced by the mayor ot
Shubert and of Stella.
Afternoon meetings were served
with ice cream. There was some clasB
to these political rallies. The towns
on tho route showed the women o
courtesy and an enthusiastic welcome
that was Just as unexpected as it was
dolightful.
Tho week's tour closed at Falls City
the homo of Mrs. McGerr, who or
ganized the expedition. Here there
was a large afternoon .meeting in
tho court house park, which, for good
will and neighborlincss and tho pe
culiar exhilaration of the expedition
accomplished, was a true climax. Tall
and exuberant Mrs. McGerr related
the week's events to her townspeople
eo that they, too, tasted the first sweet
trults of victory.
It is the policy of the workers in
Nebraska to Induce local dignitaries
to accept the responsible offices in the
local suffrage societies and this cam
paign In Richardson county added a
score of ministers, prominent lawyers
and bankers to the suffrage forces.
At tho Falls City evening meeting
four ministers spoke for suffrage. Rev
erend Tichnor, Presbyterian minister,
advised the audience to get in tho
game. He said that tho way he was
shoved Into suffrage work by women
workers reminded him of how other
boys got him into tho water for his
first spring swim. Even after his
clothes were on tho bank and he was
all ready to Jump into the water, he
Btill hesitated, thinking of the cold
water. Then some ot the boys slip
ped up behind and shoved him In head
over heels. Tho splash and splure of
he water took his mind off the shock
and all of a sudden he liked It and
jvas calling to the other boyB that the
water was fine. Ever since he had
taken tho first Jump into suffrage
work ho liked it and was now advising
tht &ftjr fellowB to Jump in, too.
At Pawnee City the suffragists held
a. street meeting. Mrs. Baldwin spoke
In the evening at the picture show.
On Sunday evening Bhe spoke on suf
frage at a monster peace meeting at
tho opera house.
There will bo no peace till we get
uffrage, so her speech vyas in harmony
with tho purpose of the meeting.
The Senior Law President.
Mlas Grace Ballard, tho only woman
In the state university aenlor Irw
class, haa been elected president ot
tho class. She la a 'strong believer la
equal suffrage, la a recent debate at
tho unlvorslty an opponent ot sutlrago
declared that tnoro wouia do a uatue
to keep women from, the polls In No
rember. Miss Ballard answered that
the.battlo was in progress now; that
most ot tho thoughtful, earnest womqn
of Nebraska were engaged in it, and
that Judging from her knowledge of
tho citizens of Nobraska they were
just enough to give it to tho women,
and that November would see a treaty
signed. Judging by their vociferous
applause her classmates agreed with
her.
Many letters are received at head
quarters asking for suffrage literature
and suggestions for sutfrago celebra
tions and demonstrations. Mrs. Har
rison, the executive secretary, li
tortile and ready in suggestions and
welcomes such lettors. When the
spoech is necessarily short, say teu
minutes or fifteen, it is best to bo suro
ot impressing not more than two points
and to make those two very pointed.
Deflnltenoss and sharpnoss will both
bo blurred it the speaker attempts to
cover all tho reasons for sulTrage.
Simplicity, directness- and good logic
In a ten minutes' spoech will make an
Impreftclon on tho passerby when high
flown periods would be overlooked.
Groceries and Suffrage.
Nobraska farmers are now getting
their coffee, sugar and raisins In tho
samo paper bag with suffrago propa
ganda. Headquarters has been sup
plying the grocers with suffrage litera
ture and asking them to send It to
their customers. Tho good-natured
grocers have complied and have re
ceived so many requests for more that
ho grocer Bhlpmont from headquarters
lias become a dally Incident.
Several hundred copies ot the
Woman's World, the ofllclal suffrage
organ, giving a full account of the ac
tivity of women of Colorado toward
settlement of the Colorado ml no trou
bles, have been distributed among
the working men of Omaha.
