Making Apple Trees Bear Yearly.

In many parts Of the country, APP
pie trees yield a crop Of fruit only
every alternate year, the year repre-
scented by an even number will be
fruitful. In othea places orchards
bear every year. Some trees will
yield fruit only every other year,
while others near them on every side
will produce bountiful crop. Two
seasons are required to produce a
crop of apples; that is, during one
season the fruit buds are developed ,
and during the next the fruit. All
the vital energies Of some trees are
employed during one season to devel-
op the fruit buds; then the year
following their entire vitality seems
to be spent in developing the fruit
without sufficient force being left to
form fruit buds for the crop Of the
next season. Now in order to induce
an apple tree to bear every season,
climb into the top, or 90 up ladders,
Just as one does when when plucking
the ripe fruit, and with pair of sharp
shears clip off all the young fruit
from about half the tree. Then fruit
buds will form on that side Of the
tree from which the young apples
were cut off. One half the top then
will bear fruit one year, while the
other half will yield fruit the next
season.

THEY LEFT THE BOY.
Bride ana Groom who Haven't Written
Home.

ESuscLAw, Wash. Feb. 2.--0n Monday,
January i3. ne newly-married couple. Mr..
and Mrs. Thomas Rolls left here for Ta-
coma. leaving behind them little 5-yesr-
old boy. the iady's son. When about to
leave here the mother promised to write
soon to certain friends with whom the
child was left. Nothing has been heard
from her since and anxiety is beginning to
be felt regarding the iady's whereabouts
and possible misfortune.
Rolls Is a COOK by profession. about 26
years Of age. iighteonpie xioned. and Is
said 70 be addicted to the flowing bowl.
Principally for this latter reason. and be-
cause no one here knew his anteeedents,
the lady's friends did all in their po~er to
dissuade her from marrying him. bnt her
infafnation was too great 10 be overcome
and she united her fortunes with his about
two months ago. Mrs. Rolls was in i'll
health when she left here. and neither she
nor the husband had much funds.
That the child has been deliberately de-
serted. and by the new stepfather rather
than BY the mother, who maj be even dead
by this time, is the beiief OF many people
here.
