TRIM THE TREES Low.

The New England Farmer talks
sense on this subject. IL the argu-
ment is good for New England, it
comes home with resistless force
when it is applied to western Kansas.
The regular season for the heaviest
pruning-the month Of Augustus
nearing. We hope our people will
follow this advice, and heed the rea-
sons accompanying it: Nearly all the
old apple trees are too high headed.
The idea Of their planters and early
trainers seems to have been that it
would not do to let the branches hang
so low that the largest horse could
not pillow or cultivate close to them
without injury. The consequence
is the stems mostly run up seven or
eight feet without a limb, and most
of the fruit, exposed to winds, is
blown off and spoiled for marketing.
If not it is extremely difficult and
dangerous to gather it by ladders.
The way the business is managed
now is to train low-keep the
branches so that when loaded they
will almost touch the ground. Keep
the surface under the tree we'll
mulched with manure, and this will
suppress most Of the grass that
would otherwise creep in. Many of
the apples thus grown can be picked
from the ground or by low step
ladders.

THE CREAMERY PROJECT.

As the WORLD said week before
last,
Wa-Keeney needs creamery. Trego
county needs creamery. Manufacture
ing pays. It pays the manufactures. 1t
pays the people of the community. The
manufacturing of butter is no exception
to the rule. Butter made in private fam
lilies brings low average annual price.
Some of this butter is of excellent quail
ty, but this has to be mixed largely with
inferior grades. Good markets are with
in easier reach for creamery butter. Peo-
pie for miles around the creamery are ed
abled to sell milk at good figures. The
prosperity OF the whole community is
thus enhanced materially. Attend the
meeting this afternoon, at 2 o'clock.
Display an interest in the matter. To use
trite, but applicable expression, ado
something for your country"
The meeting which was called in
this place on Saturday, June %, to
consider the subject Of establishing
a creamery did not materialize. Mr..
Henkel, who had requested US to
give the meeting a good ''send off, y
was not in town. Others, who
would have been at the meeting if
the admonitions Of the WORLD had
been sent forth a week earlier, did
not see the notice Of the meeting
soon enough.
From the talk which has been
given to US by various persons since
that Saturday, the WORLD believes
that this creamery project is entire
ly feasible, and that a creamery will
be started soon not far from Wa
Keeney.
And we are very sure Of another
thing, and this is that Wa-Keeney
business men, who are able to take
stock in a creamery, and refuse to
do so, stand squarely against their
own interests. A town might, for
practical purposes, as well be COW
cred up with the cinders from vol
cano as to place itself in the atti-
tude Of discouraging home enter
prises whose influences are beneficial
alike to both town and county.
When another creamery meeting
convenes, there will, we predict, be
large attendance. 1t is not vio-
lent prediction, it occurs to us, to
say that the thinking, fairly-dis-
posed business men Of Wa-keeney
will prove their willingness to assist
in the establishment of a creamery.

PROBATE JUDGE NICHOLSON, of Ness
county, sent two hearts bleeding from his
Office. The couple had gone there to gel
married. The judge learned that the
man had but recently been divorced from
his wife. under the laws of Kansas, il
would be bigamy for him to be married
within six months from the obtaining OF
the divorce. The soft-hearted reporter
of the News, upon seeing the off-goine
couple in their torment, whipped out his
bandana to wipe away the sympathetic
tear.

SA1INA Journal: It is proved that

Atchison to get proof for political pur-
poses regarding the non-enforcement OF
the prohibitory law in that city, both got
on toot upon whiskey obtained from

"Beware of an enemies gold,

Would you eagerly swollow the drug

Or an Egypt bought, played, played deprived,
Or a Burmah, o'erthrown and uncrowned.

And was free with his goods and his cash.
But when his poor victims, cajoled

Beware, then, the praise of John Bull;
Beware of his high moal strain.
Tho he stuffs you with fattery full,
He will treat you at last with disdain.
When your factories, foundries and mills
NO longer with labor resound.
When your focks have forsaken the hills,
And the farmer no more plows the graund.
When money grows scarce from the drain
That pours into the purse of John Bull,
When the cold and the hungry complain,
And Yankee is slang for "a gull"
When the workmon, now happy and free.
Well fed and well clad, and well schooled,
Unemployed, must at last bow the knee
With the paupers by Britain e'erruled-
When our cities and towns shall decay,
And our railways unused turn to rust;

You will view Johnny Bull with disgust.

HE INTER OCEAN. Chicago.

The proof of the falseness of the adj
ministration's ante-election claims of
not being hostile to the protective tariff
system is found now very plainly in
Cleveland's message. Does anybody
suppose that President who favored
less than freet rade, would claim that the
tariff brings "the improverIshment of ru-
raj sections, and discomfort with agricul-
tural pursuits" That in consequence of
the tariff "the gulf between employers
and the employed is constantly widen
ing" and farmers find their Glands de-
clining in value while their debts in
crease" These are the brutal assaults of
a malignant enemy of the protective
system, and when in the end Mr.. Cleve-
land pirates about a tariff reform as
would affect no industry, leave the
wages of labor unchanged, and assure to
every American manufacturer a suffi-
cient protection against his foreign rival
be simply unmasks the demagogy of his
position. Does not Mr.. Cleveland know
that the country has recently expressed
its sentiments on this very question of
which he so conceitedly assumes super
ior knowledge, and their decision is en-
tirely at variance with Mr.. Cleveland g
