Some Things of the Utmost I'M
pOrtance to You.
This Will Tell You What You Most
Need and How to Get 1t.

In the spring changes always take place
in our systems which require attention.
There is tired, languid feeling, a depres-
sion, the digestive organs become deranged,
the blood is bad, causing the complexion to
become affected and the person feels an in
ability to work.
At such a time spring medicine is abso-
lutely necessary. 1t will overcome all
these conditions. 1t will invigorate the
blood, regulate the digestive organs, clear
the complexion and make you feel strong
and well. The following letter written by
Miss Nettie Fraser, of Paterson, N. j., will
interest you.
"Since my childhood have been extreme
ly nervous, easily excited and at times suf.
fering with extreme nervous prostratiOn.
A year ago last June was so bad that the
attacks were almost hysterical, and my ap-
petite and digestion were in a terrible con-
dition. l also suffered with great mental
depression.

FRUIT CULTURE.

growth of fruit buds on fruit BEAR
ing wood il a great essential; we
cannot do it ourselves but we can
guide the tree or vine. We have
two seasons each year when wood
for the succeeding years fruit is
grown. From March to June and
from Sep. 18th to frost. The sum.
mer drouth acts on the spring grown
buds OF peach and plum worse than
winter freezes. Again they are too
old for next year aud most of them
open in the fall or too soon in the
winter. The fail grown bud is
where We get our fruit. Summer
pruning should be done with this
object. October 3Oth is the time to
dig around the tree and take out
the borers. Gut the surface roots
to the depth of foot and a warm
day in winter will not start all your
fruit buds through the action of a
few surface roots. At that time
bury deep all your saving of bones.
A tree should be fertilized enough
to keep up moderate growth, and
pruned enough to preserve shape
and utilize the growth as much as
you can in tall development.
Winter pruning is only done
right when thinning of the
branches is required to let sunlight
and air to all parts of the tree freely.
But let the pear trees alone except
when quite young to give them
shape or when old the limbs form
too thick a shade in the center Of
the tree.
That is when they are free from
blight; but rather than have a tree
ruined lose q branch. This pear
blight is not 80 hard to fight as some
suppose. Watch your pear trees,
look them over every few days aud
If you find a blighted leaf pick it;
if the whole leaf is black from that
cause cut the limb off 10 inches be
low the lowest sign OF blight; save
every blighted leaf and limb and
burn them, as it is a contagious dis.

winter and if let alone will ruin
