State HOW AND WHEN TO i (Two branchaa of grapa vinea th? That on the loft waa properly pruned. The Kfthitu of irrnmrth and fnilt*! bee ring of the bunch grape make it easy to prune and the work can be done much more systematically than with most other fruits. Furthermore. It will stand very severe pruning without Injury. The fruit Is borne on new shoots from the preceding year's growth and unless the vine is continually cut back, the fruiting area will become farther removed from the, main stem each year and will produce ! long, naked canes, which serve no purpose other than to convey plant food to the more remote fruit-bearing parts. Moreover, if the vine is left to itself, more fruit will form than the plant can properly develop. The important objects in pruning, then, are to get the most bearing wood in the smallest space and to lliplt. t&g bearing wood according to the ability of the vine to produce well developed fruit. Not Infrequently vines are allowed to reikin too much bearing wood and there is a consequent waste of energy In the production of many small, inferior bunches. For best results, our common varieties more than four years old should be pruned so as to bear not more than from seventy to one hundred clusters. The method of pruning Is determined in part by the kind of training practiced. There are several good systems. One of the simplest, which ; is also one of the best for the South, Is that known as the double Kniffln system or training, m wnicn are developed two trunks, each of which carries two arms trained to a twowire trellis. Use a one- or two-year-old vine for transplanting and cut back the top to three or four strong buds. That vigorous canes may be produced, rub off all shoots that appear during summer, except the strongest three.. Only two < shoots are necessary, but It is wellj to leave three, In case one should be | SPRING ONION POINTERS Some Practical Suggestions About How and When to Plant Seeds and Sets for Best Onions. Onions may be grown In spring from 3eed or from sets. However, spring planting of seed is not generally so satisfactory and sets are recommend5d for the man who neglected to plant [n fall and who wants early onions. For best results with seed, plant them in October, in order that the plants may become established before severe winter weather begins and that the onions may grow off rapidly in spring and mature early in June Still, if seed are planted very early In spring anu conditions are favorable. they will make good onions, although they will be smaller and later than those from fall-sown seed. Onions should be planted on very sandy loam. Aftnr the land has been n>nrr>n!?hlv nrenared bv deen plowing and repeated harrowing, apply fertilizer and manure broadcast and harrow into the first three or four inches of soil very thoroughly. Lay off row.; fif'een Inches anart. p'ant the seed in the drill, and cover the seed to a depth of one-half to three-fourths of an inch. When the young seedlings ap near, cultivate frequently in order to destroy weeds and maintain moisture. Thin out the onions so as to leave j them standing three or four inches j apart In the row. To grow onions from sets, prepare and fertilize the land as when planting the seed and plant the sets just as soon In spring as soil conditions will permit. Plant them three to four Inches apart in rows fifteen inches apart. White Pearl and Prizetaker are the two most reliable varieties for this region. Sets are more convenient for the home-gardener, but for a commercial onion planter, seed-p'anting is to preferred, because onions grown from seed keep better than those grown from sets and because seed cost les than sets.

The following winter (after constructing the trellis) remove the weakest of the three canes and cut back those remaining, one at the first wire and the other at the top wire. Securely tied to the wires, they form the permanent trunks of the vine. In the third year, select two strong canes coming out near the extremity of each trunk and train them along the wires In - opposite directions to form arms. Then shorten them back to a length of two, three, or four feet, this depending on the vigor of the vine. All other canes are cut off close to the trunk. Pruning In the fourth and subsequent years consists in cutting back new canes to two buds or entirely renewing the arms by cutting them out and training new canes to take their places. It is not always possible to renew an arm, because of the probable lack of a strong cane to take Its place. Ull uie uuier uouu, uuo yioutice of cutting back canes to two buds, continued a long time, will cause a thick, objectionable mass of spurs to accumulate along the arms. The moet desirable way la to combine the renewal plan with the spur method gnd thereby suit the pruning to the vigor and general form of the vine. In cases where it sems beat to prune an arm to spura, thin them to a distance of six to eight Inches apart to prevent the setting of more fruit than the vine can properly develop. The best time to prune the bunch grape is In spring, just before the buds come out. Do not delay until the season Is too far advanced. That pruning produces reeults is shown In the accompanying Illustration, the* only difference between these two bunches being that the vine of one was pruned, while that of the other was not. F. J. C RIDER, Associate Professor of Horticulture, Clemson Agriculture College. REPAIRING FARM MACHINERY Don't Walt Until Spring Rush Begins But See to it Beforehand That Implements are in Good Condition. Have you forgotten about that broken piece, lost bolt, or loose nut on one of the implements that you intended attending to during winter? There is still plenty of time for such things, but it will be unwise to let them wait until the spring, rush of work begins and hurry calls for the machinery come with it. Remember the "stitch in time" and use the cold, rainy days for overhauling broken implements and sharpening dull blades. Why wait until your oats are ready to cut before pulling out your binder and finding that there is a new piece to be ordered? This may cost you a week or two of valuable time and after you have waited impatiently through several days of fine weather, it is as likely as not that rain will begin to fall. When you order repairs at such a time, you will find that others are doing likewise. The manufacturers are rushed with orders and the delay is often such that you are driven to purchase a new machine. Now is the time to inspect your equipment and put in your orders for necessary parts. Keeping a machine well repaired and well oiled not only increases its * - J 1 1{#A Kilt ok'A emcieney ami icu&iu ui mo, o?<. ai. v lessens the power necessary to operate It. After inspecting an implement, tightening nuts* renewing broken parts, and sharpening dull blades, a coat of paint should be applied. It will prevent the iron from rusting and the wood from decaying and will prolong the life of an implement several years. For painting, there is nothing better than red lead and linseed oil. A. H.
