Two years ago a peasant in the Dis

BOO Not being able To pay his 1GO at
the end of the first year he renewed,
giving this time a bill for go. He
then had 90 interest, making total
of 256 rubles; at the end Of the second
year he had a good crop, which brought
him in POO, all OF which he had 10 pay,
and remained still debtor for 90

In 1891 the peasants of the Village of
Karlovna borrowed from the KODIAK

800 desatinos Of their best land for
nine years This year they are buying
back their land at II rubles desiatinc.
In another village the peasants sold
their barley crop in advance To a koo-

delivering it TO him, though tne market

A MONTANA ORCHARD.

~ -~--@
A Miner who Is Just beginning to Reap
the Reward OF His Foresight.
One of tho most successful orchards In
Montana east of the Rocky mountains 10
located near Canyon ferry and is the prop
erty of James Phillips. an old-timer OF that
section. says the Husbandman. MIR. Phil
lips ia a miner by occupation. but has taken
the precauticn TO locate himself a home
and plant an orchard. and ID now just be-
ginning to reap the reward OF his toll. lie
has 800 bearing trees and the oldest OF
yielded about $500 worth Of fruit this sea-
son md every pound OF ii was marketed at
home. When Intercepted in regard to
what particular method he had employed TO
bring about his success in tree culture MI.
Phillips said that he gave his orchard no
particular attention except to irrisate it
sufficiently during the summer to keep
il in thrifty condition. He never
mulches his trees or irrigates late in
the fall. and has no trouble with
their bearing, in fact his only difficulty in
this respect IL chat they ara too prolific.
He has never yet lost a tree from winter
killing. Sometimes there are a few limbs
winter killed n he has noticed sun bis
ters on the limbs and trunks of his trees.
but has never lost a tree after it once got q
good start to growing. Like other fruit
growers he had some difficulty III getting
his u lees started, but this done the problem
was solved. He says hat mulching Is on.
tirely unnecessary in his locality. He
would. in fact, be better pleased if the
sprinQ frosts did kill some of the fruit, MS
his trees persist IN attempting to bear mora
fruit than they can possibly support and
have to be propped ny, and he thinks the
apples would be larger il there were not SO
many on each tree. Mr.. Phillips has iea-
son to feel very ptoud of his efforts in this
and we congratulate him that he
is the grower of so many nice trees and
posterity will sing his praises. ms they will
those of many other pioneer fruit growers
in these mountains.
