short-lived Peach Trees.

Few people know how long q peach tree
might live if soil, climate and care were all
that they should be. OF late years few
peach trees die a natural death. The yellow
disease and the borer attack them often
after they have borne but single crop. YET
the fruit pays even thus, as one crop re-
turns with fair market many times more
than has been expended in planting and
care OF the trees. In the early settlement
of the country peach trees often lived
thirty to forty years, and attained large
size. Some of these old trees bore good
crops Of natural fruit of excellent quality.
When the peach borer began its work it at
tackled first the young trees, whose tender
bark offered little difficulty In piercing it.
New-set orchards or woodland Just cleared
do not last as the old orchards did, but de-
1ciency Of plant food, especially of mineral
elements. is in part the reason why trees are
short lived. Another reason ID that while
forests surrounded the trees they were pro-
tected from winds, which blew off the snow,
and made without increased temperature a
deeper freezing Of soil around them.

Orchards Need the Best Land

If an orchard is to be planted. it ought to
be given care and manure enough to in
sure its success. Most failures comes from
planting on exhausted soil than from any
other single cause. The farmer knows the
land needs more fertility, hence he applies
large amounts OF stable manure. This is
comparatively poor in mineral plant food,
and usually richer than it ought to be in
nitrogen. Hence the farmer gets great
growth Of leaf and wood, but the trees are
slow to come into bearing. On new land
the proportion between heterogeneous and
mineral plant food was better adapted to
make healthy growth. Hence trees come
into bearing early, and once in bearing,
their management was easier than it is un-
der modern conditions. A few years
growth of clover on land intended for
orchards, with possibly one or
will put the land in best con-
dition for successful orcharding. On land
thus fitted no stable manure is needed until
the trees begin bearing. After the trees
are planted pea crops may be grown yearly
and fed down by hogs to keep up fertility,
sowing rye in the fall to be plowed under
each spring to give the pease start.
1t has been found that the pea crop en-
riches the soil by decomposing nitrogen
through its roots, the same as clover does.
The pea crop has the advantage of clover in
requiring only one season to grow it, aud in
not injuring growth of trees, as a clover
sod is sure to while it is being grown.

The average theatrical manager is heart

He has less soul than a corporation, and
the real rude things he will sometimes say

sandbagging.
For some time past pale young man

after skating through the opening scenes of
these callow efforts, put them away in a

Last Monday the uncrushed one ar

THE FATAL ERROR.
Why a Repu blican Editor, After a
Hard Days Work, Was Sad.

Why a Repu blican Editor, After a
Hard Days Work, Was Sad.
From the Louisville ColLrier-JournGl.
The nights work was over. The muscles
Of the republican editor relaxed, and the
great ridges drawn upon his brow by the in
tense thought OF many hours departed. He
placed his feet upon his desk, and dreamily
watched the cockroaches crawl oveps them
His pencil fell from his idle hand, and the
breeze that blew in at the window fiuttered
the scanty locks on his dome-like forehead
In the hall he heard the sounds which in
Dictated that the paper was going to press,
and through the glass door ne co uld see the
preparations for that task. Bare-armed
and muscular men hurried about. The
foreman swore louder and oftener than us
ual, and his assistants chewed their tobacco
with renewed vigor.
But the republican editor needed them
not, for he was thinking how well he mad
done his days work, and his soul was bathed
in the splendor Of contentment. In an elabo-
rate production he had proved that the
tariff was not tax. He had shown that
home made tin-plate was necessary to the
salvation of America. He had made it evil
dent that the Mckinley law was the wisest
ever framed. He had demonstrated what
blessing the pension list was to the coun-
try. and he had asserted once more that il
ever this great and glorious union fell, even
as Rome and Greece crumbled into ruins,
it would be through the foul Vaccinations
Of the Democratic party. He said to him.
self that he had omitted nothing, and ne be-
lieved that he had right to feel satisfac-
ton.
Suddenly he arose and struck his forehead
violently. His face became very pale. Red
streaks appeared in his eyebalIs, and the
blue veins stood out on mis- temples. His
appearance, his manner indicated the ut
most fear and CONSERVATION. He struck
his forehead again, exclaimed: "How
could have been so careless, so forgetful9
and fell senseless to the floor.
He had omitted to write anything
about the Cobden Club being in league with
the democrats, and furnishing them money
to defeat the high tariff.

Bush Lima Beans.

AS is probably well understood by the
majority OF our customers, there have re-
Gently been introduced three distinct kinds
of Bush Lima beans. First was Herder-
sons Bush Lima beans, first offered three
years ago, which is very productive but
quite small in size, being sport to bush
form of the Sieva, or Small Carolina bean.
The next heard of was first introduced two
years ago. in a very limited way as
Kumerle's Lima, it being a dwarf or bush
form of the well known Dreer's Improved
Lima bean, which differs from ordinary
Lima beans by being thicker, plumper, and
growing more compactly in the pod. To
give this a more characteristic name it is
this season offered as Dreer's Bush Lima
bean. The third and last introduction in
this line is Burpee's Bush Lima, which is a
bush form OF the ordinary Large White
Lima bean.

THE SCRAP BOOK.

Small Items Gathered of Interest to
Farmer and Gardener.
Do not make the mistake of buying
large, overgrown trees for your spring
planting. Those which are three-fourths to
seven-eighth inch in diameter are quite large
enough, but they should have smooth,
straight trunks and good roots. Older
trees are more apt than young ones to have
lost their best roots in removal; and it is
best TO buy Of nurserymen instead Of ped
oilers, and so save money and receive Just
what you purchase. Ten dollars Der 100
will buy the best Of apple trees at the nur-
sery, and other stock in proportion.

tention Of southern planters TO several
crops that have been mainly grown in other
sections. Tobacco is the one most talked
of. But tobacco is an extremely exhaustive
crop. 1t requires expensive cultivation as
well as buildings in which 20 dry the leaf.
1t is doubtful whether cotton planters VINO
fail with a crop to which they are accus-
toned would succeed with one harder to
grow. The southern planter might profita-
bly, grow enough tobacco for use, II he uses
the weed; but for market he cannot expect
to compete with those who have given
years to the business and have learned the
best methods OF making it profitable.

Turkeys should not be allowed to brood
the first litter. Their eggs are too valuable
early in the season to stop their production
by incubation. If kept from sitting the
hen turkey will after a few days lay sec
ond litter. and the process may with old
hen turkeys reach third setting. II set
under hens nine eggs are enough, as the egg
is larger than hens egg and the young in
it are easily killed by little exposure to
the cold. Common hens make better moth
ers for young turkeys than those of their
own kind. The latter wander too far and
do not keep quiet while the dew Is on the
grass. thus dragging their young and soon
killing most of them.
So much Of the work Of the garden is
done by hand that farmer is inexcusable
who does not provide himself with the best
tools that are made. Some farmers do not
appear to realize that as much improve
ment has besn made in tools for garden
work as for cultivaJing and harvesting farm
crops. When he sees the weeders and culti-
vators operated by horse power he will find
that what is needed to DO done laboriously

by hand has been greatly reduced. and is
not at all burdensome

With little care hons may be trained to
sit in nests on the ground rather than ele-
waited above it, as is generally the case. The
moisture rising from the soil prevent the
eggs getting too dry, as they will in nests
where contact with soil is not possible.
Many people who do not appreciate the i'm
portance of this point have no luck with
hens that they set, and ouly get full matches
of chickens when hens steal their nests, and
often hatch every egg they sit on.
