Thew are 3till the basis of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, a combination of senna and other mild herbs, with pepsin. The simpler the remedy for constipa tion, the safer for the child and for you. And as you can get results in a mild and safe way by using Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, why take chances with strong drugs? A tottle will last several months, and all can use it. It is pleasant to the taste, gentle in action, and free from narcotics. Elderly people find it ideal. All drug stores have the generous bottles, or write “Syrup Pepsin,” Dept.

Experiments show that prun ing is not a "cure-all” for all the ills of peach production. Nevertheless, pruning is one the important orchard operations and sl.ould be done care fully, states G. Woolsey, University of Arkansas college of agriculture ex tension service. The peach bears Its fruit on new wood only, and therefore pruning should be done with this in view. The young peach tree should be cut back to about 18 to 20 Inches at the time of setting. This causes the peach tree to be low and open head in shape. Head ing back at this point causes a num ber of small branches to shoot out below the cut. Three, four or five of these lateral branches should be se lected as the main scaffold branches the following year, and the remaining ones should be removed. The lateral branches should likewise be cut back about one-third to one-half of their growth. The following year, the second year after setting, the peach tree grows very rapidly. Pruning following this year should be a matter of cutting back about one-fourth of the new growth and in thinning out the unde sirable branches that fill up the center of the tree. The tree at all times should be cut out in the center to ad mit the free circulation of air and to allow sunlight to penetrate all parts. The third year peaches are inclined to come into bearing, although it is undesirable to allow them to fruit heavily. The firs®^ full crop will occur in the fourth season. Pruning, follow ing the third growing season, should be done with this fact in view. The fruiting buds are borne usually in pairs along the new growth. The tips of the new growth are usually the last to form and, therefore, the buds are usually weak. The tree at this age should be pruned according to the growth. If a good heavy growth Is made the previous season, the trees should be pruned accordingly. MMHWIIilMW Five Miuion Kmes ’S)NIGHr There are times when all a mother’s .ove can't soothe a fretful baby. No way of telling just what’s wrong, yet some thing must be done. Castoria time! A few droM, and Baby has dropped off to sleep. Yet this marvelous means of quieting a restless infant is utterly harmlesB. There is not one ingredient but what all doctors know and approve, and would let you give your baby every day in the week. In fact Castoria is a purely vegetable product. Gas pains, constipation, even diarrhea can be dis pelled in this same manner. Castoria is older than you are, but physicians still say “nothing better for babies.” An old-fashioned remedy if you count its years, but parents are old-fashioned who still raise babies without its aid! And at least five million modern mothers keep it handy day and nierht, for twenty- five million bottles were bought last year! Buy yours now; don’t wait until you need it.

Still Plenty of Apples Despite Tree Decrease The number of apple trees in the United States has been declining since 1910, according to census figures. For each 100 trees In the country, in 1910, there were 70 and 64, respeetW^ely, In 1920 and 1925. This decrease in num ber of trees from 1910 to 1925 was around 79,000,000 out of a total of 217,000.000 trees reported In 1910. This apparent large reduction in the total number of trees Is less alarming than appears at first glance. Except in years of adverse weather conditions, there has been no shortage of apples, and the crop of 1926 was the largest produced In many years. In fact, commercial production of ap ples has been increasing, and it is be lieved that a large part of the reduc tion in the number of trees has taken place in scattered family orchards and in the less favorable commercial areas. In some areas production has increased because of the Increased ca pacity of trees through an increase In age, through better selection of varie ties and better orchard management. Selection of Trees for Planting of Importance The setting the orchard, so far as the planting methods and the han dling of the soil and the trees im mediately after planting are con cerned, is of prime Importance. But there is another factor which, while perhaps It may be mentioned last. Is a consideration which should occupy the attention of the orchardlst very early. That factor Is. quality of the trees selected for planting. It never pays to plant a poor, worthless tree. Horticultural Facts 1111111 i"i' There are splendid opportunities for commercial growing of strawberries. * * • It Is very difficult to do effective spraying without good spraying ma chinery. • • • It’s a mistake to slash too freely into mature trees. A tree Is a living thing. The main purpose of pruning is to keep down the height sc that spraying and picking the fruit will be easier. '. * • * Where the grapevines are affected with scale insects, use the lime sul phur spray of one gallon lime sulphur to seven gallons of water. * • 0 While the methods of pruning ^all young, deciduous fruit trees are more or less .similar, ^s the trees grow old er their differences In general growth, shape and fruit characteris tics become more pronounced, requir ing greater study and care In order to meet their individual requirements, and to serve better the economic needs of the grower.
