or the American imitation thereof, to be the
best for this purpose; the next is the Parme-

AxiOms in Fruit-rree Culture,

Canadian Farmer.
First-Instead of trimmed up'' trees, ac-
cording to the old fashion, to make them
long-legged and long-armed, trim them
down so as to make them even, snug, and
symmetrical.
Second-Instead of manuring heavily in
small circle at the foot of the tree, spread tho
manure, if needed at ALL broadcast over the
whole surface, especially where the ends Of
the roots can get it.
Third--Instead of spading a small circle
about the stem, cultivate the whole surface
broadcast.
Fourth-Prefer a well-pulverized, clean
surface in an orchard. with a moderately rich
SOIL to heavy maturing and surface COW
cred with hard crust and weeds and grass.
Fifth-Remember that it is better to set
out ten trees, with all the necessary
care to make them live and flourish, than to
set out 100 trees and have them all die from
carelessness
Sixth-Remember that tobacco is a pui-
son, and will kill insects rapidly ii properly
applied to them and is one of the best drugs
for freeing fruit trees rapidly of small YER

There Is evidently an improvement In trade the

While there may be an increase in number of

taking business as 1t comes, hoping the
next day will bring better trade, as

Hon. II. b. Keogh, United States marshal
for the district of North Carolina, is at the
Arlington and will spend day or two in tho
city. In reply to an inquiry ho said :
" am not certain whether wo will be
able tn elect successor to Repre-
sentative Pool, who died short while
ago. Gov, Jarvis has issued the writ for
a special election to Gil the vacancy but it is
for the new district which does not leave the
situation az favorable TO the republicans as
was the case in the old district. You know
the state has been redistricted since the last
congressional election, and of course the new
arrangement was specially designed for dem
ocratic successes for the forty-nnth congress.
So you see our democratic governor takes ad-
vantage of the state of things to improve the
prospect of things for his own party"
Regarding the political outlook for next
year, Col. Keogh said "I believe that we
will win, and am certain that we will do so if
we can bring out the full strength of the re-
publican vote. There was some falling Off in
some of our mountain districts last year, but
We hope to get them all back, Some of the
liberals, who worked with us last year,
are growing little about Mr.. Winston, who
has placed himself squarely in the republican
ranks. believe however, that his example
will be followed by great many dissatisfied
democrats throughout the state, and that
thousands of democrats in North Carolina will
quietly vote the republican ticket next year
who never did so before. Tho prospects for
n real coalition convention are growing rap
idly brighter, and, to sum up the situation,
feel confident that we will be able TO carry
the state for the republican presidential can
