COUNTY PRlNTlYG,--Senator Nelson, of
Vernon, has introduced bill providing
Tor letting all printing required hy his
county to be let to the lowest bidder, un,
der the same regulations rs the State
printing is now let. Senator Nelson is
publisher of the only paper in Vernon
county, we believe, and we fail to see any
necessity for the proposed law in her
case. II the Senator ranks the county
pays him too much for printing, he can
charge less wit cut being comI He'd t. it
by n law. If the proposed bill applied
to all counties. we should find no fault
with it. In counties where there are tw>
or more printing establishments, aiurd~
ing an opportunity for competition, the
people might get their work done cheap
CT under the proposed sys en-. II We
understand the Constitutional Amend,
ment recently adopted, local bin such
! as Senator Nelson is "out OF order, and
ought not pass Make the bill general
and we shal! say ''pop hes through,
though we very much doubt il the saving z
to the people will be so great us is ez-
pected.

MoviNc 10 SErTlR-Ihe people Of the
Town of Mineral Point manifest their
good sense in taking the primary steps
toward ridding themselves Of their por-
ton Of the hurdensome town bonds II
is understood that some party holding
ten five hundred dollar bonds of the town
has signiftd a Willingness to release the
same FOR 30 per cent Of their face and
interest The people Of the town held
a meeting at the City Hall last Saturday,
and resolved to try to borrow $4,000
cash from the state, with which to buy
mp $2O 600 Of bonds. Without close cal =
cuIatlon We should estimate the CLAIMS
against the town OF Mineral Point to be
about S6O000 (l0 per cent OF the claims
against city and town iointly( The as.
Sessment OF tbe town is about 100000.
O( which $4,000 is about - per cent.
Now suppose the town borrows $4,000
at per cont interest, payable in years,
or $1,000 per year and interest The
annual tax would not exceed per cent
OF the assessment; aud we believe with :
in the Hrst year nltcr settlement, prope, ty
would advance and improvements Le
made sufficient to cover the entire tax.

EDITOR EAGLE: Many thousands Of
trees are lost annually by ignorance or
worse carlessness in preparing the
ground for the reception Of trees and
insufficient pruning. and l should have
said, careless planting, too. AS APP
pcarances indicate the near approach
of the planting season. there is no time
to be lost by those intending to plant.
fruit trees this spring. In the first
place lay off your rows in the direc-
ton that gives You drainage: then
pillow in lands so that there shall be
finishing or dead furrow where each
row of trees are to stand. This dead
furrow will give you an opportunity
TO pillow at least twice the ordinary
depth just where depth is most needed
for the development of roots. and will
answer pretty well as a substitute for
an under-drain 10 carry off the surplus
water that in many places would stand
around and injure the roots of the
trees. You are now done until just
before planting, when you will reverse
the order Of blowing SO as to fill up
all the dead burrows, making that
point little higher than the balance
of the surface, then harrow thoroughly
and you are ready to lay of your
ground for permanent planting. The
distance to plant apple trees apart
that has given the most general salts
faction in prairie countries is twenty
feet. and even at this distance you can
plant peach trees alternately i'll the
rows that run north and south and
there will be sufficient space left to ad-
nit sun and air. If after a few years
the apple trees seem to require all the
room you can cut out the peach trees
and the fuel will repay you well.
Peach trees where standing alone
do not require to he more than fifteen
feet apart. Peach trees when trans
planted should have every limb re-
moved and the stalk cut to three feet.
Trees pruncd in this manner will grow
more than twice as much the first sea-
son as those unpruned, and will be
well formed trees. having single
stock and symmetrical head. Apple
and other trees need to be cut back
