A CTUALl. j. . ^. c s nothing
mysterious about “pruning.”
Equipped
i4i
with stout pruning
shears and good
common sense,
anyone can prune
the planting on
his place.
Here are four
good reasons for
pruning shrubs,
plants and trees.
First you prune
to obtain desired
shape, size and
form.
Second you
prune to rejuvenate old, over
grown plants.
Third you prune to thin out
growth that has become too
dense and, fourth, to obtain larg
er blossoms or to produce more
flowers or fruit.
Rejuvenation of old plants
is accomplished by severr
pruning, together with feed
ing and cultivation. Over
grown bushy plants need the
removal of the oldest wood
right to the ground and the
shortening of other branches
to encourage new shoots
from the roots. .
Pruning to thin out growth
that has become too dense is
combined with the removal
of injured, diseased and dead
branches.
If you want lots of flowers or a
few very large ones, you prune.
Heavy top pruning encourages
the growth of more leaves and
branches.
Be sure to remove wild shoots
or sucker growth from below tins
union on grafted plants. Other
wise they will eventually over
come the more desirable grafted [
top.
When to prune depends
largely on the flowering habit
of the plant. Shrubs and or
namental trees divide them- .«•;
selves into two general ^
groups—those which bloom in t
the spring and early summer
and those blooming later on
wood of the current season.
The early flowering varieties
should be pruned just after
their blossoms fade. This in-
' sures both the finest show
i flowers and the best growth.
As bearing trees reach ma
ity the amount of pruning may
increased to maintain re,
and efficient production pf qual
ity fruit. ^ tA

Radium in Treatment of
Cancer of the Lip
By Dr. J. B. Warren
i HAvertV
.TtME *R> Qo Tb
HOSPITAL
-Ttty
/
While surgery is a quick
method of removing cancer
there are some cases that get
better results by the use of ra
dium. This is true of cancer
of the lip. Radium has a “se
lective” action in that it se
lects the cancer cells to de
stroy instead of the normal
cells. Dr. Edmund Kelly, Bal
timore, gives four reasons for
treating cancer of the lip by
radium where the glands are
not swollen:
1. The results are better—
more cures than by surgery.
2. The appearance of the
face and use of mouth are bet
ter.
3. Saving in expense and
time; patient doesn’t have to
remain in hospital.
4. Patient can go about his
usual work.

“It isn’t pure altruism that
makes farmers want to see city
people buying more cotton and
woolen clothing, eating plenty of
fruit and vegetables and meat,
drinking lots of milk, and eating
eggs. Farmers like to see their
fellowmen in cities enjoying pros
perity because farmers are good
citizens and know the Golden Rule
| as well as any group in the nation.
