The kind of grafting that la used for the aitple tree is the tongue or whip graft ing. This 1* done aa follows: A root of the upper ends of the tree is taken and cut so as the other tongue is ready to slip beneath a similar tongue made in the scion. As soon as they are slipped together firmly, a piece of waxed cotton is wrapped around the grafted part well to hold it together snugly. The time to plent the tree Is the early spring. It must be remembered that from, the time the tree leaves the nursery until It 1« planted in the or chard the roota should be exposed to as little air as possible. In planting the hole should be dug deep enough so the roota can spread' out without being crowded. The bolee should not be very wide, but deep enough to let the tre set about an inch and a half deeper-than it did at the nursery. All of the roots that *ro over six Inches long are dipped off to six Inches. Any root* that are bruised or broken are cut off dean and smesth, so they will heal quickly. The soil must be packed tightly about the root so there is no air or crevices. They do this with tbrir hands. When the tree 1* In place they spread the roota out and throw a shovel of dirt on tt, then shake the tree up and down several times, then work it into the crevices between the'roots with the fingers; throw in a little more dirt sad work into the remaining crevtoe. and then with the feet tramp the soil solid, re peating thia till the hole Is full and the dirt about the tree la solid and tight. After the tree has been firstly packed, throw aa inch or ao ot dirt over the top to serve as a dust mulch and keep it from drying out. Then turn the irrigation water on It. The trees ar* set between 26 to M> feet apart. In cultivating a young orchard the plow la used frat. The plow should bear six to eight inches deep so aa to provide a deep covering of plowed ground, and to cut the surface roota off of the new trees and make them go deeper into the soil where they will ba kept cooler during the hot weather and warmer in the winter. Thea the disc and harrow are used. The fertilising of the orchard is done mostly with the barii manure. It la done by putting the manure on 8 wag on and scattering tt through the or chard. The pruning la done mostly in the winter and spring. Twigs and beaach- ee become dlseaaed sad have to be cut off. There are many other things that happen to them during a year that haa to be taken off. They do thia with a long pole and at the top there la aome- thlng like a pilr of scissors. This clips the branehea. Some of the other toola used are a saw and pruning shear* They spray here three or four tlmaa a season. One of the times when they have to spray is when the woolly aphla begin* to come on. They spray with Black Ijeaf 40 and soap. They spray when the blossoms come on for scab. This is sprayed with lime and sulphur. The thinning begins to come.on in July and August. The way you thin la to look on your tree for a cluster of apple*. Then you pull off all of the apples but the largest one, which you leave banging. After a while the branehea of the tree begin to be so loaded with fruit they have to be propped. Thia is done with a long pole. At the top is a V- shape, which looks something like a wish tMine. They take the pole and prop the tree up. This keeps it from breaking the branches off of the tree. Now the harvest comes. They deter mine the picking by the color of the apple and the seed. When the red ap ple reaches a good r«l culor and the seed is a dark brown the apple is ripe The yellow apple also la determined. The apples are picked here as aoon as the maturity la lip. The reaaon for thia is because the apples have to be sent so far away. We begin the harvest here In the early part of September. The apples are picked and put in a large apple picking bag, then dumped carefully into apple boxes. The best picker can pick about 100 boxee a day. The apple boxes are stacked in the field till a large wagon cornea along and takes them to the pecking house where they are unloaded The applee are then dumped in the large blns, where there are chutes go ing out from each. Thia la the grader. Sorters stand on each sidsl and sort them Into extra fancy, fancy and O- gradea. The culla are sent on down Where there 1* a large bln. The pecker stands at the side of the sorter with paper on one side and ap ples on the other aide. In the middle is the apple box. There art two waya to pack apples, the 8 by 4 way and the 3 by 8 way. After the apple* are packed there la a nailer who nails the boards up. They are then loaded on the warm or a truck and taken to the train, where they sre unloeded and put in the train and sent on their way. Friday, November 19, 8 p. m. Total «*3,373.03 Said budget of estimate will come up for final discussion and adoption at the regular meeting of the Common Council on December 20, 1926, at which time any taxpayer or person interested may appear and present his objection to such proposed expenditures.
