4 EVEXIXO ROeEBCTtG REVIEW, THVRSDAY, JCXE S. 191T. MM I BOARD TO ASSUME DUTIES SUMMER PRUNING IS NECESSARY County Fruit Inspector Says Orchardists Should Look After Their Products Without Delay. f (Fred L. Strati) I A large orchard acreage of prune auti varifliea ol apples mid ptam lo be fouud iu tins county wUich lire approaching ttie period tien (Ley eliouid bt-fe.u to btar heavy crops of fruit, and which would now be great ly benefitted by summer pruuing. This practice of summer pruning, in adaitton to the regular winter prun ing, is especially applicable to ihoae young orchards containing varieties, like lor example, the ripitzenberg und the Newtown, that normally bear upon spurs from the start, and consequently where the 11 rat consid eration Is to develop more quickly a more vigorous and extensive fruit Kpur system. It is not a pruning treatment that Is recommended at this time, for a few varieties that at first normally bear upon shoots through the medium of axillary or terminal buds, or for older trees that have been bearing good crops for a number of years and necessar ily have already extensively de veloped their fruit spur system. Pruning Investigations conducted at the Oregon experiment station for the past six years regarding the re sults that may be expected from dif ferent methods and at different times of the year have recently been published In Station U ill let in No. 1 :'.!. It was found that a judicious tinning out of the branches in the center of the trees at winter pruning- time encouraged the formation of fruit spurs, while a winter heading back of the trees checked or reduced It. From these results It might have been Inferred that heading back of the trees was in all cases to be avoid ed. If such recommendations had been made, few practical fruit growers would be Inclined to follow (hem? at least without some modification, for they know that constant thinning out, coupled with ho heading back, eventually will result In the develop ment of loose, straggling trees trees weak mechanically, even though they might possess fruit spurs for large crops of fruit. A correct system of pruning was then sought that would keep the fruit tree fairly compact and still not Invite the evils attendant upon the severe heading back that Is practiced so commonly. It was then found that an early - summer pruning (about July It ol these young trees was followed by a secondary late summer shoot growth that functionally closely correspond ed with the trininal half or third or shoots on trees that are not summer pruned. That is. this late summer secondary shoot growth normally produced laree, plump lateral budh the following season that are in clined to grow out into fruit spurs. Furthermore, this late summer shoot growth of summer pruned trees Is generally advantageously placed In I he tree, and it is not apt to be so long that much heading back is re quired during the following dormant season. The result is that the tree under this pruning treatment rapidly de velops a fruit spur system because this secondary snoot growth becomes covered with fruit spurs the year following its production. At the Kime time there is no tendency for the tree to become straggling in form. It Is thus a method of proce dure enabling the preservation of all the good enects resulting from thin ning, for there is a vigorous thin ning both at the time of summer and winter pruning, and the avoiding of the evil enects of heading back, be cause this summer pruning or head ing back Is done at the time of year when it does not remove the portion of the shoot that is most prone to develop fruit spurs. The good results that have been secured from this method of prun ing should receive the attention of all progressive fruit growers. Sum mer purning at this lime distributes the pruning over two periods of the year and eliminates the necessity for very vigorous pruning which many growers Rive trees, causing too much vegetative growth at the ex-:"' ousinens June zu, I i : pense nf fruit production. It is! Resources. therefore evident that pruning Loans and discounts 44, US2.II should be a regular operation rather than an irregular one, and that the growers should follow the rule of do- ing most of their thinning out of the tree while dormant at winter prun- ing time, and then most of the top- ping or heading back of the trees during the present summer time. For this summer pruning one should now cut or head back lightly the terminal growth sufficiently so II will not run away with the tree and; about -to the point where It Is de-1 sited (o force out new lateral buds .i.i. n ... ano.ner year s growtn win be inclined to grow out into fruit spurs.

If necessary, it is best to let the tree come into bearing a Utile brushy, because after It comes Inlo bearing this excess wood can be easily thinned out by gradually removing portions of the branches each fol lowing year with only a light shock I The In. i ronitMralile 4m EM ANN'S; MILK j A "T" ii u u n i .A A Ui F.W i h ST LCAO.NS OftUOC.ST IwiD to the tree. If one attempts to thin out the branches excessively, such a targe shock and vegetative growth responds thai it often takes at least a couple of years to bring the tree into bearing. The proper timing of this summer pruning 1b an important matter, and it has just lately been found by pre vious experience that it should be given earlier in the growing season than it has been in the past. If de layed until there are signs of ter minal bud formation In the main shoots, little, or no secondary shoot growth will be produced. On the other hand. If done too early in the growing season, equally unsatisfac tory results are apt to follow. The best time seems to be when shoots of the current season have obtained one-half to two-thirds of their nor mal length, which is usually about July 1 in this fruit section. The exact time will vary with variety, lo cation, season and many environ mental factors. Mnt Common of IttMllly Ills. Ily far the most common of bodily ills is constipation. The usual cause is the Indifference of many people to Nature's call. The Inclination Is not heeded, or it Is put off until more convenient time. When this is done repeatedly, constipation is almost sure to follow. It i of the utmost importance that everyone es tablish a certain time for the bowels to move each day and let nothing interfere with if. When that Is done and proper food and exercise are taken and an abundance of drink Ing water, the bowels are not likely to give much trouble. When a laxa tive Is required take Chamberlain's Tablets. They are mild and gentle, easy to take and agreeable in effect. DfCISIONS RENDERED BY LAND OfflCC OFFICIAL IN HOMESTEAD CASES After trial of the cases before the local land office officials, decisions in which were received from the Com missioner General at Washington 1). C, this morning, nine Coos Coun ty homesteaders are deprived of ihelr titles as the result of the ef forts of the V. S. forest service. Tes timony in the cases was taken here about five months ago. The defendants claimed the land as being best suited for agricultural purposes, and through possession which antedated the establishment of the forest reserve. They are George V. Langdon, James H. McCloskey, II. S. Kribbs, Kckley Gtierin, George II. Guerin, David McNair, William L. Berry, Fred B. Garrett, and Geo. H. Guerin. Jr. The land Is situated In Tp. 24 S.. fl. 9 W. The men had settled upon it many years and had claimed to have lived up to all the requirements which gave them title to the land as homesteads. The Government offi cials In the forestry service, how ever, claimed the rules had not been observed and finally won out in the several suits.

Rigid adherence to the policy laid down lu the National army selective draft law, of placing the question of exemptions lu the hands of local boards, is expected to characterize the exemption regulations to be made public by the War Department in a few days, according to word re ceived in Itoseburg today. The local military board Is comprised of Sheriff George Quine, County Clerk E. H. Lenox and Dr. K. It. Stewart. It is understood that the regula tions will map out only the general procedure of the boards, the person nel of which already has been an nounced. It Is regarded as certain i hat no specific class exemptions will be provided for, and that each man will be appraised on his individual occupation and physical capacity when his name ts called and he is summoned before the local boards. As a matter of course, no man with serious physical defects will be called upon for military service Crippled or defective persons among those who were registered were noted at the time ttnd it Is possible ..hut they have already been dropped from the rolls. The judgment of the Hvillan doctors who are attached to local exemption boards as to the ibilily of any individual to bear the hardships of a soldier's life will be i determining factor. Married men will not be exempted as a class. In each case the -object of the board will be to determine whether the dependency of wife, ,-hildren or other relatives upon any nan is so complete ub to warrant his rejection as a soldier.
