Getting in the Crop.

First to bloom in the spring, the al
mond is last to mature in the fall. The
whole spring and summer long it
hangs there, a green peach for all the
world, and after the first few weeks
never increasing in size or changing
in appearance. The seam is deeper
than in most peaches, but not deeper
than in the ripe apricot.
Late in August according to the
Popular Science Monthly, this seam will
be seen to have opened in few of the
earliest. The growers anxiety now
reaches its climax. viii his almonds
open and remain open until harvested,
or will the drupe remain closed or
only partially open and then close tight
again? The whole profit of the crop
may depend on this question. 1t may
cost half they are worth to pick and
husk them.
The nuts are knocked off the trees
with long poles. Where they have
opened nicely they are allowed to drop
on the bare ground and are husked as
they are picked up. The picker's de-
light, if he is working by the bushcl or
| box, is to see the ground covered with
Outs that the stroke of the pole and
the impact against the clods have COM

to do but throw them into his basket.

Transplanting Trees.

Transplanting young trees in au
umn is successful if rightly performed
and ,lnder proper conditions. Not
properly done, the work will be a
failure and the trees will perish. The
roots, being naturally spread, should
have fine earth placed compactly in
among them, pressing it sufficiently
to close all crevices; wrongly done,
the roots will be bent and twisted,
and coarse earth and clods thrown
into the hole, leaving air crevices and
openings. The exposed roots will
eventually become dry and the trees
will wither and die. The more nearly
the transplanting approaches the
natural position of the tree as the
roots are naturally spread in the
compact soil, the better will be the
success; and the trees will make an
earlier start in spring than later
tranSplanted ones.
In all the operations with the soil,
Disadvantages of thorough pulveriza-
tion must be kept prominent, and
plowing, narrowing and cultivating
many times repeated, are not only
more economical in the end, but are
specially satisfactory to the owner.

HOMESTEAD, Pa July S.-The town

afloat this morning AS the commit

A Startling Coincidence.

In the year LESION the 5th day of
December, the English ship Menai
was crossing the English Cham al
when she was cspsized by gale. OF
the eighty-one passengers on board
but one was saved and his name was
Hugh Williams. On the same day OF
the mon tn, in the year 1885, a pleas
ure yacht was wrecked on the coast
of the Isle of Man. There were sixty
persons on the boat, among them one
Hugh Williams and his family. OF
the three-score none but old Hugh
Williams survived the shock. On the
5th day of August, 1920, a picnicking
party on the Thames were run down
by coal barge. There were twenty
five of the picnickers, most of them
being children under II years Of
age. Little Hugh williams, visitor
from Liverpool, only years old, was
the only one of the merry party that
lived to tell the tale of disaster. Now
comes the most singular part OF this
singular story. On the 10th day, of
August, in the year 1889, q Leeds
coal barger with nine men foundered
off the coast of Scotland. Two of these
men, both Hugh Williams, an uncle
and nephew, were rescued by some
fishermen, ald were the only men of
the crew that survived the calamity.
Every fact recorded above can be sub
stantiated.
