Sept. 19 to 21, and was one of the largest gatherings of pomologists and scientists that has ever met in that convention city. It represented the best talent in scientific and practical horticulture from all of our best agri cultural colleges, as well as those con nected with the experiment stations and the Departments of Agriculture at Washington. In the absence of Presi dent J. H. Hale of Connecticut, CapL C. L. Watrous of Des Moines, la., acted as chairman through the deliberations of this body. The first day's meeting was largely taken up with address of welcome of the mayor and responses, together with the president's address and the report of the different officers and chairmen of committees. The city of Kansas City royally entertained this notable assembly. Americana Plum. On Wednesday, Sept. 20, the pro gram proper was taken up. with the first discussion on the Americana plum. It was opened by Prof. Albert Dickens of the Kansas Agricultural college. He said that we may hope only through the breeding up of the type of plums with a strong marking of the native to get varieties that will stand in many places over the arid Northwest. The consensus of opinion was that it was the best family of plums to plant over the large area of the Mississippi valley, and north of the 10th degree of latitude. Prof. Troupe of Indiana said that many of the varieties of the Americana were perfectly adapted to his state, and lhat there was an increased planting of some of the best varieties. Several who spoke on their value for Colorado crave as their opinion that this family of plums, which constitutes such varie ties as the Hawkeye. Stoddard and Wyant. and the Chickasaw varieties. Wild C!oose and others, were doing well, and that the increased planting of these hardy varieties during the last few j ears was marvelous. Prof. Kittle of the Iowa Agricultural college believed that from the best improved varieties any one who planted and gave proper care would be abundantly Messed with good crops and fruit, and that from these selected varieties we may hope to develop a breed of varie ties of high excellence, both as fo longevity of tree and hardiness of bud and high quality of fruit. Pruning. Following this discussion was that of pruning of the different fruit trees and the peculiarities of climate on pruning. There were many different opinions expressed, but the weight of the evidence was that pruning was ne of those operations that should be practiced early in the life of the tree. Its outline and contour should be formed with the first pruning of the top. as in the apple at two years old; open tops, so as to give circulation of air, and the letting in of sunshine was considered absolutely necessary to high-grade fruit. B., this method greater bearing surface of tree could be secured, so that instead of the tree bearing only on the outside or termi nal branches, would set fruit through I he tree. Thus the trees could more easily bear up under the heavy crop of fruit and not break, as the weight is more evenly distributed. Perfect Apple. On Wednesday the report of the committee on grading the exhibiting fruit was taken up, but the committee asked for further time for making their report. Mr. Williamson of Illi nois, chairman of this committee, was asked while on the floor to give a defi nition of a "perfect apple." or one first class, to grade No. 1 on the markets. 'Normal in shape, normal in color; free from worms, with no break in the skin. Must be han d picked and free from fungus; must range in size from 2i to 2A inches in diameter at Its widest part to be in the No. 1 grade." Orchard Management. The subject of cover crops came in for much discussion. The most suc cessful fruit growers advocated some kind of a cover crop. In Missouri it was cow peas, vetch, clover or any plant that would completely cover the ground, giving uniform moisture and keeping the soil from drying out. Many argued that the developing and matur ing of the crop of fruit was such a HONEY BEES AND THE ORCHARD. " It is a question whether or not that a sufficient quantity of honey bees n- t viit the orchard blossoms will do more good and be the means of producing more fruit than spray ing the trees in the ordinary manner, 4is carried out even to the most sys . tematic and scientific plans. We are '; inclined to favor the bees, and for our part have given the job into their hands entire. While spraying in the proper season does not conflict with ' the work of the bees on fruit blos soms, yet some people are foolish enough to spray their fruit trees when in full bloom, thus defeating the very object they desire to obtain. If any one is not thoroughly acquainted with the tables laid down for spraying fruit trees, they should not spray at all until' they are posted. There is perhaps not an agricultural i.,iiii chert but is able to furnish papt;i !"- any fruit grower a table or the neces- :v.TTnntinn as to snravins fruit trees to receive the best results (if good results are to ue ictcueu um ihi practice. -o one sunuw. - heavy drain on the water supply that if not protected, and the evaporation lessened by a cover crop, your fruit would necessarily be smaller. Mr. J. A. Burton of Indiana said that crab grass in his large orchards made a perfect covering; was easily mowed down and retained moisture and gave the soil the proper conditions. He be lieved that orchards should be culti vated during their first few years, and then seeded with some cover crop. He did not advocate high culture, but be lieved that the orchard required at tention all the time to get the best re sults. Some of the figures that Mr. Burton gave as to the great value of commercial orcharding follow: "In my orchard I had 110 trees of Grimes Golden, from which I sold the fruit for 11.700. being an average of $15.50 per tree." One can readily see from these figures that it pays to take care of the orchard; give it proper care," good culture, for when given this it becomes one of the most remunerative Investments that one can make. Reliable Trees. Prof. Morris of Oklahoma, discussing In his paper the source of trees for orchard planting, said that the unsus pecting public were often made to suffer from the irresponsible tree deal er. He gave many instances to show how men had been unfairly dealt with In procuring their trees, not getting what they ordered. He cited one in stance where he knew a party had gone into the woods, dug up willows, cutting them back and shaping them and shipping them for peach trees. They were planted out and grown one year before the owner was aware of the treatment that he had received. It was only more evidence of what has already been said in these columns that the ordinary farmer and fruit grower should only buy his trees and plants of his home nursery, or of par ties that he knows are reliable. Spraying the Apple Orchard. Prof. Pollard of Nebraska, on the subject of spraying, said that it is the only way to get a fruit crop one year with another. He gave as his opinion that if spraying was properly done at the right time and with the proper mixtures we may expect a good crop of fruit with ordinary conditions as we would a crop of corn or any other cereal. For the codling moth, which is one of the great enemies of the apple, he recommends four pounds of paris green to 50 gallons of water. For eating insects and for protecting the foliage from fungous diseases, ho only added Bordeaux mixture, as given in the regular formulas. Prof. Beech of Iowa said that in spraying what was proper for the apple would be detri mental and injurious to the' plum foli age. Mr. Dunlap of Illinois, who is one of the large fruit growers, said that one of the essentials of spraying for" profit was doing it at the right time. In giving his experience he said he had found that the early spraying, before the leaves had opened, had al ways given the best results. Then you could get your spray compound more evenly distributed over the tree before the foliage was in the way. The Hon. Parker Earle. who is one of the veteran fruit growers of this country, said that after years of experience and trying the many formulas for spraying, he had found that arsenite of lead had given the best results and that it was the only thing that he was using in his orchards, for the codling moth and for the canker worm. He claims that you can keep your orchard free from them with the assurance of a crop of apples one year with another. The formula given of the arsenite was three pounds of arsenite of lead to five gallons of water. Many advocated the use of desperine, but it was proven that this compound was the same as the arsenite, and was used at flie rate of five pounds to 100 gallons. After hearing much discussion on this ques tion from different learned men we believe that we would recommend the using of the lead compounds for the codling moth and the canker worm. Training the Grape Vine. Prof. Munson of Texas gave a valu able paper on the growing and train ing of the grape vine, demonstrating before the association his method of training the vine. It was by placing heavy posts three feet in the ground, every six or seven rods. On each is a cross-arm about three feet long fitted on the top. He trains the vine on a string for each vine until it gets high enough to reach the wires that are sta ples on this cross-arm. This allows the vine to spead out each way. mak ing a perfect arbor, so that it can be easily tenured and allows good ventila tion through the vineyard. By this method he claims that more grapes lose sight of the fact that to spray fruit blossoms when the blossoms are open is largely fatal to a crop of fruit that is. if the spraying is effectual, which, in the majority of cases, we think is not: but in many cases it is. owing to the material used, and the conditions under which it is used. Effectual spraying of fruit blossoms will kill all insects visiting the blos soms, thus preventing the fertilization of the same, or largely weakening the same. If you are a fruit grower, it will pay to experiment a little; and if you try honey tees to the num ber of about two or three colonies for each acre or orchard you have, you will be as well pleased with the re sult as many others have been. Bees will, aside from this, pay you for their keeping, so that it will cost nothing to have them work your fruit blos soms, but will be quite advantageous to them thus early in the spring. A poor soil well worke-1 will ordi narily produce bet'er crops than a sr.od soil, poorly worked ; but for whol ly satisfactory results there should be th good land and good work. i and better ones can be produced Goodman President. One of the main features of the dos ing and last session of this notable gathering was the election of its offi cers for the next biennial period. Here- tofore this society has always met In the East, and as natural its officers were Eastern men, who knew but little of the possibilities of the great Mis sissippi valley. It was very fitting that at this election a man of the promi nence and experience of E. A. Good man of Kansas City be elected as its president- He is one of the men who has had more to do in commercial or charding and in horticulture in all its' branches than any man we know; he has been for twenty-five years secre tary of the Missouri Horticultural so ciety. Prof. Craig was elected secretary by unanimous consent, and also Prof. L. R. Taft of Michigan for treasurer. Brainy Men. Never before was there such a col lection of brainy fruit men as were found at the program of this meeting, and we only regret that space will not permit for going into detail with the different addresses and papers read.) Medals Won. The following were given the Wilder medals, which is the highest honor that this society confers upon its ex hibitors: Missouri State Horticultural society for its extensive exhibits of apples, pears and plums. Those who helped make the great Missouri exhibit were M. O. Cole of Springfield, G. T. Tippin, S. H. Jenkins and Ozark Orchard com pany and others. While this was an "off year" in Missouri, yet the display of highly colored fruits was magnifi cent and showed great care in selec tion and arrangement. The firm of Ellwanger and Barry of Rochester exhibited 127 varieties of pears. While all parts of the coun try are not perfectly adapted as this section for pear growing, yet it was demonstrated that there are pears adapted to the different soil and cli matic conditions of our country. While in the northwestern states like Iowa and Nebraska we may not grow to per fection Bartletts and Seckles and vari eties of high quality, we can grow in abundance Kieffer. Flemish Beauty, Duchess, Clapp's Favorite and many others. It is a question which each must decide and experiment for him self; perfect air drainage being one of the essentials of success. Mr. C. G. Patton of Charles City also received award for the largest exhibit from his state, containing over forty- five plates of different fruits originated by cross-breeding. He may well be called a "Wizard of Horticulture." He is one of the few men that is building a monument to horticulture in his mod est way that but few realize. He has already originated varieties of apples that are perfectly adapted to any good orchard soil in Northern Iowa or South ern Minnesota, varieties that will grow and bear much luscious fruit. A few exhibits of fruit were merely given honorable mention, such as the exhibit of the Ozark Orchard company at Goodman, Mo., and the Kansas Agri cultural college. Approved Varieties. In looking over the exhibit from Ne braska and in talking with the main men from that state, they all agreed that the following were the best varie ties of apples to plant, both for home and commercial orchards: Salome, Windsor, N. W. Greening, Grime's Golden, Wealthy, Jonathan, Gennet, Gano. Bermuda Onions. We must not close without making mention of the vine fruit display from New Mexico, which was made by Prof. Garcia. His exhibit was composed largely of grapes of the "mission type," but showed conclusively that they were in the favored spot for bring ing the grape to perfection. He also made a large exhibit of Bermuda onions. The professor is demonstrat ing that there is great areas of land in his state where the Bermuda indus try can be made very profitable. He grows the onions from seed in "flats," transplanting them to the field in rows 15 inches apart and four inches apart in the row, so that at time of maturity the ground is almost completely cov ered with these beautiful large, white onions. Hybrids. The Department of Pomology at Washington, under the direction of Col. Bracket, made an extensive exhibit of some of the newer hybrids in varieties of limes, lemons and other citrous fmits, which gave strong proof of the ppotent clement shown in all hy- ! brtds. THE CROSSING OF APPLES. Pomologists of the United States have written volumes on the hybridi zation, or crossing, of apples in order to produce new varieties of commer cial value suited for growth in the cli matic and other physiographic condi tions of this and that section. Hvbrid ization is a charming employment for the apple-grower, because here man uses his art and skill in attempting to control some of the most exquisite workings of nature. Scientific cross ing is done by using a camel's hair brush to take the pollen from the blos som of one variety of apple and im pregnating the pistil of the flower of another variety. The fruit formed from this blossom is a cross of the two varieties. The seed of this is planted. Sometimes the grower, in this way, hits upon a fine apple, but there are a thousand failures to one success. Thies is a good time to save some millet seed for winter feeding. Put it in the strav and watch the poultry hustle for it. IMHMMiMMMMHil Fungus Attacks on Telegraph Poles. The length of service of a telegraph or telephone pole is determined in a section of the pole not more than a foot or a foot and a half long. In a standing pole this section extends about six or eight inches' above and below the top of the ground. This is the universal point of attack upon the life of the pole, and is called its breaking point. Decay is the arch enemy of these poles. It sets in at the ground line and reaches both up and down the pole, but only so far as the conditions exist which promote the growth of wood-destroying fungi. A few inches below the ground there is lack of the necessary oxygen and heat, while at about the same distance above ground the requisite moisture fails. The exact time at which decay begins its work depends upon the cli mate, the character of the soil and similar conditions. In a hot, moist climate it ordinarily sets in with great rapidity. But at best, in a very few years after the pole is set the struggle has commenced. The decay soon girdles the pole and gradually eats into it deeper and deeper until it is so weakened that it breaks under the weight of its equipment. The strain upon the pole from wind pressure and the weight of its cross arms and wires is calculated for the ground line. When the diameter of this ground line is constantly de creased, the strength of the pole is proportionately reduced, and it be comes only a question of time when the pole must fall. Chestnut and white cedar have been found, among avail able woods, most successfully to resist decay; but the life of the former is only from twelve to fifteen years, and of the latter ten to twelve years. The co-operative study of the bureau is for the purpose of extending, if possible, this time. The experiments already made by the United States Forestry Bureau show conclusively that poles can be subjected to a preservative treatment which insures materially lengthened service. This treatment consists in im pregnating the wood with antiseptics which prevent the growth of the fungi that cause decay. The treatment of telegraph and telephone poles, when attempted at all in this country, gen erally has been applied to the whole pole, requiring the use of air-tight cyl inders 100 feet long or more. In these the poles are subjected to live steam for some time, when a vacuum is cre ated. Creosote is then run in and pressure applied to force it into the wood. Manifestly this Is a laborious proce.vs. Yet for telegraph and tele phone poles only about one foot of the entire length needs to be made im mune from fungus. If this foot at the fatal ground line can be preserved from decay, the rest of the pole will take care of itself. Experiments will now be made in treating the butts of the poles for a distance of about eight feet, thus carrying the antisep tics just beyond the zone of decay attack. The creosote method will be used and dead oil of coal tar forced through the butt of the pole. The telegraph companies have made little use of preservative treatment They employ millions of poles on their various lines, and it would be a tre mendous economy to add even a few years of service to the life of each pole. But there will be another large saving both to them and to the forest through preservative treatment To provide a good margin against decay, poles are now much larger than de manded by the strain upon them. It is expected that decay will quickly eat away a furrow around the pole at the ground line, and the diameter of the pole at that point is gauged to allow for this weakening process. When it is known that decay, in a certain num ber of years, cuts the diameter from perhaps 12 to 8 inches, and that below 8 inches the weakened pole falls, the course to be pursued is obvious. Anti septics prevent, for the time of their effectiveness, the starting of decay, and thus permit at the outset the se lection of an 8-inch diameter rather than a 12-inch. The 4 inches saved represent a tremendous difference in the size and age of trees used for poles. Both the companies and the owners of forests will be great gainers by this econoinv, with Us shortening cf the length nf time necessary to grow a pole. Coal Ashes as Mulch. I have believed for many years that coal ashes make a good mulch, and I still hold to the opinion, but with some modifications. It is true tuat the ashes will for a time prevent the growing of weeds, especially during the early part of the season. But in the ashes weed seeds will ultimately grow up and de velop enormously. I might say that if ashes are put on a piece of ground in the summer the weeds will probably not appear during that year, for the reason that the seeds of weeds will not have time to fall upon the ashes and sprout before cold weather comes. But the next jear, look out' Last winter 1 put ashes between my rows of current bushes as well as be tween my rows of strawberries. The ashes were spread on fully six inches deep, so deep that I thought it Impos sible for any weed to push through. During the first part of this summer the weeds did not .appear, but after midsummer showed a sudden vigor. The ar.hes then seemed to help instead of hinder them. I was away from home for some time in the middle of the summer, and when I came back those weeds were five or six feet and I had to pull up the stalks to make the presence of the weeds in my currant patch less obvious to the neighbors. In my strawberry patch the result was the same. The weeds grew up and in addition every strawberry run ner that got onto the ashes sent down a good system of roots and developed plants right amid the ashes. I am go ng to follow the matter further and see how deep I will have to pile the coal ashes to prevent the growth of weeds. I am sure, however, that coal ashes are a great help for a few weeks, but they will not accomplish much as a permanent destroyer. Albeit Bates. DuPage Co.. 111., in Farmers' Review. Silage as a Feed Reserve. The man that has a good many milch cows knows the advantages of having always on hand a large supply of good feed. One of the great ob stacles In the way of successful dairy ing is the unevenness of the season. Some years there is an abundance of pastura&e and an abundance of grass in the meadows, which is made into cheap and nutritious hay. But there are other years when the pastures are dry and consequently short, and the crops is the meadow are so small that before the winter is half over the fanner has to buy feed or sell part of bis cos's. Too often the profits of one season are eaten up by the losses in another season. As a usual thins the fanner or dairy man thit is caught short on his feed tries to keep along by feeding straw mixed with ground feed. He imagines that he is savins the loss that would be occasioned by the purchase of hay at fancy prices. In fact he is losing heavily in the feeding of such make shifts, for the amount of fiber that has to be digested Is so abnormally high that the little nutriment in the straw costs too much to make it pay to try to get it out How much better for the farmer to have always on hand a large supply of a nutritious feed such as silage. There are years when the weather con ditions are such that an immense amount of silage can be grown on a small area of ground. Some of our enterprising dairymen carry silage con tinually in their silos, and when the corn crop of one year is being harvest ed they are still using silage from the lot put In the preceding year. The more silos built the better is it for the man that is trying to conduct business profitably. Doubtless silage carried for two and three years will be found to be as good as silage used at the end of a few months. One dairy man tells me that he prefers silage a year old for his cows and that they always drop on their milk yield when he changes from old to new silage, showing that they find the old silage the more digestible. John Stinson, Bureau Co., 111., in Farmers' Review. Small Flies in Milk. I i:hip my milk to the city, usually sending about four cans. One day, a few weeks ago, I received all the cans back because in one there were a number of tiny flies, hardly visible unless they were in great cumbers. I felt badly to have every can returned when only one was at fault, for I had taken great care with my milk and rather prided myself on my cleanliness. Just how the flics got in the milk I do not kuow, for it was all carefully strained and then put in the tank to cool, and fresh water pumped in. Whether the flies were in the can, or whether they came while the milk was in the water cool ing, I do not know, and I have won dered if other farmers have been troubled in this same way. At any rate, I made up my mind that there would be no more flies in my milk, so now I use two sets of cans, and after I take the milk from the cooler. I strain it again into clean cans. I have had no further trouble with the little pests, although it means some more work and a double number of cans to be usel. S. E. Lang worthy in Farm ers' Review. The Combination Cow. There is incessant warfare between the specialists in cow breeding and the man who wants a cow that is both a beef-maker and milk-maker. First the combination cow was called a general purpose cow, then a dual pur pose cow, and now some one has hit upon the name given above. While the specialist is right in some things, he is wrong in others. Certainly the man that is producing milk with the idea of selling it must produce that milk from the cow that will make it as cheaply as possible, and this he will find among the distinctly dairy cows. But there is a place for the combina tion cow. On the high priced land in Illinois and adjoining states the man who is producing beef cattle is learn ing that it is impossible to make money by producing beef cattle alone. He must utilize the milk-giving power of his cows as much as possible. Therefore he wants a cow with a beef form and deep powers of milk-giving. These kinds of cows are in existence. They are not suitable to go into the dairy, but are suitable a? an adjunct to beef making. Anthrax Among Cows. Not long ago a man that has a large herd of cows and peddles milk in the city of Nash ville, Tenn., discovered that many of his animals had anthrax. The board of health took up the matter and had the diseased cows slaughtered and their carcasses burned. The rest were vaccinated and a rigid quarantine maintained for a time, with the hope of preventing the spread of the dis ease to other herds. Anthrax is a most deadly disease and is communi cable to man. As soon as it appears in a neighborhood every precaution should be taken against it. If the ani mals are buried they should be sur rounded with quicklime, that is, un slaked lime, that all germs may be de stroyed. If the carcasses are buried without this precaution the germs will work up through the soil and the grass and other animals feeding there or eating the dried hay cut from that place will take the disease. Vaccination for Anthrax. There has been an outbreak of anthrax in Rome, Italy, and the veterinarians have been vaccinating according to the Pasteur method for preventing the spread of the disease. The results were fairly good with small doses. The work was effective when combined with the careful destruction of all carcasses of animals dying of anthrax.
