An apple tree twelve years old split asunder from its weight of fruit I have propped the sides closing the flssnre, and covering it with graft-fr- g wax. Would It be advisable to put a bolt through or will the props hold the sides together until they grow to- gether? Under the conditions described above, the best thing to do would be to draw the two parts as closely together as possible and bolt them firmly In position. There are two ways of spplying the bolt One la to bore directly through the fork; another la to bore through the opposite branches a foot or two above the fork and Insert a bolt In each branch with an eye on the inside. These are then connected by fence wire or a small rod. This latter method is usually preferable because it Is much stronger. When a abort bolt Is employed, occasionally f of the tree may break off short at the point of insertion of the bolt The higher bolt supports the strain much betfer and obviates this probability of breaking down. j GROCERIES AND MEATS Din Street, Stockton TQio one-hal- Killing Market Chickens. The method of killing the chicken by dislocating its neck Is different from the way of wringing or twisting the neck. When the chicken's neck Is dislocated, and the head Is pulled from the neck, the loose, unbroken skin of the neck forms a sr.ck Into which the blood of the chicken flows. The body of the chicken Is as well drained of blood as If the head were cut off with an axe. The market appearance of tbe chicken is Improved bj killing by dislocation; the flesh of the chicken Is more juicy and edible. On the contrary, when chickens are killed by twisting the neck, death results mainly from strangulation. The lody of the chicken Is not freed from blood on account of there being no space In the neck into which the blood can flow. The appearance of the flesh of the chicken that has been killed by twisting its neck is reddish and blood can be plainly noted In It Plants.
