How to prune pears to the best ad vantage has occupied the attention of horticulturists at the New York State Agriculural Experiment Station at Ge neva tor several years, and certain definite recommendations are now be lieved to be justified by the results of the Station tests. The merits of high- and low-headed trees have been com pared, and a study made of the effect upon tree growth and fruit production of much and little pruning. Low-head ed trees receiving little pruning have proved most satisfactory in all re spects, declare the station specialists. Experiments have been conducted with such well-known varieties as An- ■ jou, Bartlett, Kieffer, Sheldon, Seckel, and Lawrence to study the, relatiyo j value of high and low heading. Cer-. tain of these varieties have also been | used in tests of much and little prun ing tor pears. cured in these experiments, it would seem that low heads were best for all varieties of pears, 'specially for the tall, upright-growing types, say thf Station horticulturists, trees produced, larger, broader, and i ute hand gone.

A large number of members of Gene- j va Kiwanis with their wives came to i Hall on Tuesday evening, January 19, , for the fish and steak dinner served - by the Men’s Club. A number of Hall - people also took advantage of the op- ( portunily to enjoy the dinner and en- i terlainmcnt following. This was a splendid program opened by the sing ing of a number of songs by Ihe^iudi- ence, led by the Kinvanis song leader. Several selections o-n the harmonica by Edwin Bird, an 11-year-old Hall lad, were received with enthusiasm. Violin solos by Herbert Fink, of Geneva, a<> ( companied by Mrs. V. W. Rogers, fol -1 lowed. The principal speaker of the evening was George M. B. Hawley, of! : Geneva, well known as a historian j ! of first rank in this part of New York ! i state. Mr. Hawley’s talk ‘tvas of ab-, sorbing interest and showed the re sults of the most accurate and pains taking labor in looking up old records,, original documents, etc. Mr. Hawley expressed himself as being keenly in terested in any family records, deeds or old papers that any one could place i D at his disposal, saying that these old j q records, hidden away, and often lost., contain some of the most valuable hints regarding the history of this sec tion. John R. Houston and Bruce P. Jones, presidents respectively of the Kiwanis Club and the Men’s Club, as well as all participating in the highly enjoyable occasion, deserve much credit for the manner in which the affair went off.— Hall Cor.
