THINNING OUT FRUIT.-E Every tree,
however hardy, will be hut by heavy
bearing. 1t is strain upon the powers
of the tree, lessening its vitality, rcquir
ii,g year or more 10 r cluit, aud short
ening the period of ITS life. The fIuit
fails (and largely to Ct me TO its usual
standard, to say nothing of its highest
condition under the best management
All this results from neglect of thinning
out, an operation murh less difficult than
is supposed. Remove down to modcr-
ate amount of lut, which in heavy
laden tree is at least ha.f the crol often
more should be taken. This relieves the
tree, and enables it to concentrate Oh the
rest of the fruit, greatly increasing the
size and the quality, which in market
tells most. BY lesseuing the number Of
specimens, the number of seeds is re-
duced; aud 1t is this particularly that fa-
vOrs the tree, as The seeds draw sharply
on the trees vitality, 1t also has the
effect of favoring bearing the next year.
We thus see how much can be done by
this ona operation. If all orchards were
thus treated, there would be revolu-
tion in fruit-growing.-[F. &. in Coun-

A BRIEF SKETCH OF JUDE noUsToS's
LIFE AND CAREER.

A BRIEF SKETCH OF JUDE HoUsTON'S :
LIFE AND CAREER.
Judge Houston has nearly reached The
Psalmist's limit of life. lie was born in
Concord, Del, a small town near what
is now Seaford, Of parents who were
able to afford him liberal educa ion. -
he graduated at Yale College in 1884,
having won the dignity of membership
of "Skull and Bones" viii b is even
more priced than academic no ors. Des-
tined Tor the law, he was entered as a
student in the law ONCE Of John NJ,
CLAYTON, the statesman of whom the
Blue Hens chickens are proudest. The
embryo Judge took great interest IN pol
itics and made effective speeches IN
every campaign. He practiced his pro-
fession in Georgetown, the county seat
Of Sussex, aud won much r. pntaion a
the bar. In 1910 Governor Cooper made
him Secretary Of State, which place hr
held until 1sIi. when he was nomna-
ted and trlumphantly ele { ID to Con-
gress.
After serving three terms IN the Ma
tional LEGISLATURE lie declined reelection
and resumed his law praclic, In George
town. Geogre B. Rodney, Esq who as
selected 10 succeed him hy the WhieS.
was defeated by Geo'ge Read Riddle,
and the same fate was experienced by
Mr.. Houston two years aiterwani. In
1865 Chief Justice Booth died,and Judge
Harrington (afterward Chancelloi) was
made Chief Justice. Although the
nomination belonged TO Kent County,
Governor Peter +. Causey appointed
John w. Hous on, then resident of
Sussex. The nomination proved accepta.
BILE, and Judge Houston has added great
ly to his reputation as an able and fear
less Judge.
Personally he is an irreproachable
candidate, and his judicial ability is
conceded by all. His election, however,
is not expected, even by his warmest
friends, as the Democratic candidate has
made an excellent Congressional record
and is exceedingly popular.
