This week we are publishing the
roll of the citizens of Belt, Armington
and surrounding country who have
signed up to help support the local
ball club during the season of 1924.
We are not stating the amounts

etal means of the individual, the re
taras to be expected as well as the
willingness to contribute.
Some people have conscientious
scruples against Sunday baseball and
others may think it inadvisable under,
local conditions. We must respect
their right to determine these matters
f#r themselves.
The list is in the hands of T. W.
Noble, secretory-treasurer of the as- !

TIME NOW TO PRUNE TREES
(Continued from Page One)
ming a tree in a globe or pyramidical
shape as it looks artificial and too
to jjive them a uniform shape and
j is also well to help the growth of the
i trunk. For instance: If the season's
■ growth was from three to five feet,
[cut off about one-third, but by all
j means don't cut back into the hard
! wood. Eliminate all the lower
branches on the trunk to the height of
i six feet from the ground so that a per
son can -Winr under it Paint all fresh
made cuts with white lead to keep the
! moi s tur e out, ——
Pruning, if it is needed, should be
gin now, when it is perfectly safe. In
case you have to cut targe branches,
be sure and cover the wounds with
white lead or bees wax.
"To inspect the trunk is most im
portant is it is the breeding place for
insects. Cut out ail the decayed bark,
in fact, give it a good scrubbing with
[a atiff brush clear to the branches.
'Mix one-half pound of soap, one gal
••
I ion hot water and two gallons of kero
sene and apply this emulsion with a
brush. This will kill all the pests and
will not injure the tree.
"Formula for emulsion for spraying
the foliage later in the season is as
follows: Mix 10 ounces of B lack Leaf
No. 40 to 60 gallons of water, qdd two
pounds of fish oil soap to this mixture.
"Now, what is the cause of the
trees splitting the bark and getting
those sickly blotches on the trunk?
I have taken this matter up with the
horticultural station in Washington, D.
C., but so far have received no remedy
for its prevention. It seems they are
at a loss on this question, but claim
it is caused by the abnormal change in
temperature in the spring months
when the sap commences to go up.
For instance: We have a temperature
of 38 to 40. Suddenly it
10 below freezing—and we have ex
perienced this often,
quence is the circulation of the sap

regain the sap will travel again but it
will leave some fluid behind where it
was held. Opening the blotches up
you will find a watery matter in them;
by all means cut this all out clean. If

in time kill your trees.
' Spraying of trees is essential. We
must take precaution to prevent in
sects that destroy our trees. Even
the tree looks healthy «nd clean
ought to have a spraying and I recom
mend this being done about the month
of June."

THE HOMELESS CHILD.
What will we do with him?
This is a question of grave import
ance. The proper handling of the
homeless means much to the future
welfare of not only the child but of
the coming generation. The time was
when the homeless child was much
neglected and was left to shift for
himself in the best way he could and :
that wag not very good. Then the j
Christian era began to take an inter
est in him. It was not till the last of
the seventeenth century that he began I
to be cared for in orphanages except!
a few feeble attempts which were
made in the first and second centuries. |
The plan of adopting the homeless
child out into good homes is of very 1
recent origin. During the last half
century this plan has been adopted as
the best method of handling the de
pendant where he it free to be placed.
The society which has been doing this
work in our state the past 26 years is
the Montana Children's Home society.
To date about 2,600 dependent chil
dren have been placed in good homes j
by this organization at an average 1
cost of 1136, and 98 per cent of them
have made good. Besides making
many children happy we have made
as many homes cheerful by the bring
ing in of a child. No dollar spent for
charity could possibly tell for more
good accomplished. It
so
a
and a joy to be engaged in such a hu
manitarian work.
The district superintendent has
cently been here soliciting for the
support of the society and friends
have generously contributed but there
are many whom he was unable to see
personally and if they wish to help
with a contribution, • «hock sont, to
the^ society will be greatly
The past year a campaign has been
put on to raise money for our new
building of which there is an urgent
need. In 1923 we were compelled to
turn away over 300 aid cases because
we had no room for them. Enough
•■»* » 1 « •, f
money will be on hand this spring, we
hope, to begin on the building but it
will need considerable more to com-;
plete it." Can you not send in some
thing for this worthy cause? Is it
right that we should that we should!
be forced to refuse a worthy case for j
want of room? Many worthy par
ents do not wish to give up their chil
dren and are willing to send in money
for their support if we can keep them
for a short time.
We have two~4HtIe brothers which
re
we wish to keep together by placing
them in the same home. They are
four and five years of age and are
fine boys. We also have a brother
und sister we would like to place to
gether, The boy is fogr year* old
and the girl 18 months. Is there not
someone who can take them and love
them as their own ?

Don't do it again. No matter what the condition of the
