uslly get manured once and little atten-
tion is given TO needed pruning for few
years; and, as the trees get larger, pecessi-
tating the aid of ladder to ascend them,
pruning Is neglected but the owner does
not neglect cropping the soil every year
Just as though the trees did not exist. OBJ
serve almost any old orchard, sDd it viii
be seen that, in consequence OF this neglect,
the heads Of trees have grown up thick
masses of branches. II Is now difficult to
get about among these to pick the fruit
when the trees do bear. The rays of the
sun cannot enter to ripen the fruit, and the
latter lie small and of inferior quality.
Several dead branches are visible and the
trees are gathering moss. Three words
tell the history of most orchsrds-neglect,
starvation, death.
Yet, happily, there is way to restore
those old orchards to comparative health
and fruitfulness, If the trees are not already
too far gone. The first thing in the line
of wise treatment Is to give the soil q lib
ersl coat of barn manure when there is
snow on the ground, and ii can most con-
veniently be drawn on a slsd, and when
there is most leisure to attend to it, The
manure once out, it will b. a constant re-
minder to farmer svery time he looks
that way that there is necessary pruning
to be done. 1t is best to do this just be-
fore spring work on the soil commences.
II will be sufficient at first to excise the
dead branches that cross and chAfe each
other, and the numerous sprouts which are
always found on such trees Each subse-
quent year other branches can be removed
as needed. The true philosophy Il, that the
pruning be gradual, 60 as not to shock the
tree
II there is stiff scd on the soil, plough
it up when the time comes, and sow clover
with some kind of grain and then pasture
it down with hogs, calves or sheep, prefer
ably the latter. In no case should a crop of
grain be taken from an orchard. Grain
imopverishes the soil ard rohs the fruit IL
the trees are kept properly pruhed ,soil fer
tile and friable, spraying done with insec-
ticides as needed, and young fruit thinned
when to thick it will go far toward health
full longevity of the trees and q continuous
annual growth of the best specimens of
fruit of the kind Potash is the msin ele-
ment drawn from the sail by fruit This
indicates the adyissbility of giving it an oc-
casionsl dressing of wood ashes. But all
this requires care" is the objection. Does
not everything one grows successfully re-
quire exertionl 1t Is a wonder not that
our fruit trees do not bear satisfactory
crops, but that they bear at all.

WILDCAT BANKING.

1t has long been known that it was only
necessary to give the Democratic party
rope enough in order to get it to hang it
SELF A striking illustration of its capacity
in this line of effort is furnished in its
national platform. The Republicans
couldn't have asked anything better for
their use than the declarations against pro-
lection and in favor of wild cat money.
What State banking did for this country
is graphically shown by Mr.. ]. W. Shuck-
ers, formerly the secretary of Salmon P.
Chase. During the period from 1911 to
1916 many State banks sprang up; the
volume of currency increased from $780,
100000 to s11O, 900, 900; and the inevitable
result of widespread bank suspension fol-
lowed. At the end of 1915 specie was 80
scarce that the government could not pro-
cure enough gold to pay the interest on its
debt. Business disaster was 30 universal
that Henry Clay, speaking in 1882, de-
scribed the years from 1918 to 1924 as ga
period of paralysis, of dismay and desola-
tion."

renoy imitation set in. State banks in
creased in seven years from 329 to 973 in
number; their circulation expanded from
$61 ,O0O, 900 to $1s6, ,00O, 900; and when the
crisis came in 1887 it spread almost uni
versal ruin. The State banks everywhere
suspended specie payments, as they had
| done in 1914, and the notes in circulation
| were Withdrawn or rendered worthless
until only sS0,000.000 was afoat. The
National Bankrupt law of 1S41 was in
force less than two years, but during its
operations "a, 900 persons took advantage
of its provisions, with liabilities, according
to official schedules. of $40, 900, 900 and
with assets of less than $40, 900, 900.
| Between 1S43 and 1860 more than ZOO
State banks failed, inficting enormous
losses on the multitudes that held their
notes. Of 1000 State banks in nominal
existence in 1860 fully one-third were in a
ruinous condition. The notes of hundreds
of these institutions had been accepted by
mechanics and laborers as money; yet
they were worth no more than the paper
they were printed on. The great financial
crash of 1857 was directly precipitated by
the free trade tariff of that period and the
expansion of the irresponsible and specu
lative State banking system.

s'EX MXSFERX.S -
About twice year for many years the
New York and New England railroad stock
has gone crazy and also set crazy many
who have been attracted by its gyrations
and induced to believe that they could tell
where 1t was going to fetch up. 1t is hav-
ing another fit now. After falling with a
succession of sickening thuds Chat is, sick
ening to those unwary enough to buy it)
from SO to 30s it started the other way,
and with everybody knowing that 1t isn't
worth much, if anything, 1t called up to
46a. This great rise has been accompanied,
as the other great rises in the stock have
been, with many gorgeous predictions of
"deals'' which would make of the des-
pissed and rejected New England an
investment fully as sound and as profit
able as the stock of the Chemical bank.
But the gentlemen who are running the
deal are cruel enough and regardless
enough of the feelings of thoss who are
trying to follow their antics to throw
cloud of mystery about the performance.
We take pleasure in dispelling this cloud
and causing New York and New England
to sell eek mystery" 1t is asserted that
the secret is safely locked up in Philadel
phis, but Philadelphia is no place to keep
a secret in. We have discovered that the
latest move in New York and New Eng
land is owing to the buying for control
which is being done by the Panama canal
company. This company has succeeded in
inducing the Bank of France to put up
enough of its gold to buy the New York
and New England outfit. Of course the
canal is at present in very dilapidated
condition, and so is the railroad, accord
ing to the report of the railroad commits
that by the time the canal is done the road
can be set right. AS we understand it,
the intention is to use the railroad as a
feeder to the canal, and this will involve
the running of line of steamers from
Hartford to the Isthmus. Four or five
hundred millions have already been sunk
in the canal, and a good many millions
have been sunk in the road, but anybody
who can "fgger" can easily show how
the two, working together, can get all
the millions back and make each
other profitable beyond the widest dreams
of avarice. No wonder the stock of the
road jumps two or three points each day.
The wonder is that it doesn't eoar without
stopping to jump.
We make no apologies to Philadelphia
for revealing the secret. Philadelphia, the
city of brotherly love, shouldn't bs selfish
and want all the stock toitself. 1t should
be willing to let others have some. OF
course we cannot tell how we found out
what is going on, but will simply say that
it was in the same way that many other
such deals, especially in connection with
this stock. have been discovered

Restoring Neglected Orchards.
IE1ou, the Americau Stockmnn-I

OF all the inattention and carelessness
pertaining to farm operations the neglect
of orchards is the most unaccountsble and
surprising. 1t is seldom that an orchard
IL pruned. This should be attended to an
nuaIly for similar reasons that the farmer
should out bis burdocks and curry his
horses. Fruit trees cannot do their best,
or even fairly well without liberal feeding,
as we'll as live stock and growing crops of

seen an old orchard manured. 1t would be
as reasonable to keep feed from an old
