Ashton USAC Extension Horticulturist Practically every man who takes a pruner to a peach tree has his own method of doing the job. Even professional horticulturists horticul-turists do not agree in detail about the best way to prune particular trees- However, both practical and professional horti-ulturists horti-ulturists agree that they want a strone tree which can produce and support a heavy crop of high quality fruit. How to get such a tree is the point at which dis agreement begins. Year Watkint Deattr JOS. H. TAYLOR "The Watkins Man" PHONE 559-R 751 West 1st South Provo Mil UMI MrM tUI till tin. Ilil To anyone who has had experience exper-ience in several different orchard or-chard areas, this disagreement is easily understood for it is a fact that peach trees under different dif-ferent conditions respond in different dif-ferent ways to the same pruning prun-ing operation. This makes it difficult for one unacquainted with particular conditions existing exist-ing in the orchard to do the kind of pruning which will pro duce the wanted effects. mis also makes men who have had different experience with pruning prun-ing practices disagree as to the best way to prune a particular tree. When we consider pruning peach trees, we should remem ber that pruning is sometning 1 t7 , if KINO AND QUEEN ... AH Dw Hn, member of ski-jumping team, and Eileen Seigh, member of U. S.

Reasons for Tree Pruning If we will remember the reas ons for pruning the peach tree, we will be less likely to make mistakes in pruning. Probably the most important reason for pruning the producing peach tree is to assure the production 01 good fruit wood well distributed distrib-uted over the framework of the tree. Since good fruit wood can not develop in dense shade, the kind of pruning that will give the desired results must be a "thinning out" type of pruning. Perhaps the only other important import-ant reason for pruning the producing pro-ducing peach tree is to remove odd wood and thin new wood so that it is well distributed.- Most of our mistakes in pruning prun-ing peaches comes from a misunderstanding mis-understanding of the reasons for pruning. It Is too often assumed that one of the important reasons reas-ons is to reduce the height of the tree and since the easiest way to reduce the height is simply sim-ply to cut them back to size, severe heading back is common ly practiced. If the trees are healthy and the soil is reason-bly reason-bly fertile, most of the energy of the tree during the next growing season goes into replac that cannot be done independ- jng the top. It is not at all un ently without consideration oi the tree's physical condition. Neither can it be done without onsideration of other orchard practices or of natural conditions j such as soil, water and climate. The physical condition and every ev-ery orchard practice and every natural environmental lactor plays on important part in de termining how the pruning should be done. Do You Want To Cut Your Federal Taxes? Overlapping Bureaus SCERA Certainly young, vigorous common to see from four to six feet of new growth over the top of trees hich have been headed back severely. The top becomes so dense with the vigorous vig-orous growth that the lower and inner portions of the tree produce pro-duce no good fruit wood because of the deep shade from the top.

This growth was haphaiard. What happened was that when a job needed to be done, an agency was hurriedly set up by executive order, or created by Congress. We are now paying for all these mistakes. On July ?, 1947, Congress authorized, au-thorized, by unanimous vote, the launching of the greatest effort yet made to plan an efficient, economical eco-nomical government reorganization. reorganiza-tion. With the approval of President Presi-dent Truman, a bi-partisan, twelve-man twelve-man commission, headed by former President Hoover, was established. This Commission found many discouraging dis-couraging examples of the confu sion in our government machinery, and has made concrete suggestions to correct these ills.

ALWAYS ASK FOR MAXFIELD'S CHOCOLATES THE CHOCOLAATES OF QUALITY Take Home a Box Today! IS A TELEPHONE STRIKE JDSHS? Union leaders are demanding another an-other general wage increase; further liberalization of welfare, pension and benefit plans, and liberalization of vacation va-cation treatment, as well as many other items. They are broadcasting much misleading information and are threatening to strike if their demands de-mands are not granted. Let us look at the facts in connection connect-ion with this controversy. Telephone employes have actually had nine general wage increases in the last ten years. Average hourly wage rates have more Uian doubled since 1939. How Do These Present Wages Look to You? Top rate telephone craftsmen in Orem are paid a regular year-round base salary of at least $72.50 per week. The basic rate for similarly experienced exper-ienced switchboard operators is $41.00 per week. These rates are for a regular daytime day-time 40-hour week. Because the telephone business is a seven-day, around-the-clock business, both groups earn substantial extra pay for overtime work and for night, Sunday and holiday assignments. The Company has made extensive surveys throughout this territory and these show that present telephone tele-phone wages and working conditions are very good and that they compare favorably with wages and workir.? conditions in, the communities ia which the Company operates. The Company's earnings are so low that it has had difficulty in securing secur-ing additional capital front investors to provide plant to meet service re quirements. Therefore, any increase in telephone wages would mean that much higher rates for telephone users. How Do These Working Conditions Look to You? Here are some "extras" enjoyed by telephone employees at no cost to them: 1. Sick pay up to one year at full par 2- Similar benefits for accidents (oa or off-the-job.) 3. Death benefits up to a rear's pay. 4. Pensions based oa salary and serrice but at least $100. including Social Security for employes orer 65 with 20 or more years' service. 5. Up to three weeks' vacation with full pay. 6. Eight paid holidays. We think these facts sufficiently answer the misleading and inaccurate statements being made by some CWA Union leaders. We can, see no Justification for the inconvenience to the public which a telephone strike would cause. THE MOUNTAIN STATES TELEPHONE AND TELEGRAFH COMPANY |
