FIG. 1.

bing off superfuous sprouts during the
early part of the first season, the tree
may be depended upon to give you just
about the desired shape, and will re-
quire little attention afterwards ex-
cept slight annual heading in (cut-
ting back the ends Of long branches)
and the removal by rubbing off, Of in
side sprouts where too close or in the
way. Struggling growers, like Beat
rice, Rivers and others, of the first
early peaches, require somewhat Sc
verer pruning; they are always liable
to overbear, and to set loads of fruit
limbs Cutting of one-third or more
of the new growth not only puts the
fruit closer to the ground, but also
prevents the setting of an excessive
crop. 1t Is a simple and excellent
method of thinning.
At first, naturally, the growth Of the
young tree appears to be quite upright.
In trying to shape 1t, we must always
bear in mind the effect which bearing
heavy crop will have on the tree.
The limbs will be bent down, and the
tree, at first showing the form as Illus
trated in Fig. l, will soon assume the
shape shown In Fig. O. When relieved
of their load of fruit, the limbs will
spring back, but not fully to their for
mer position, and every following crop
must naturally bring the limbs down
closer to the ground. This tendency
should not be ignored when we are
trying to put head on a young tree

"I think she will use It to good ad-

ORCHARD FERTILIZERS.
Potash and Barnyard Manure the Best
for Peach Trees.

Potash and Barnyard Manure the Best
for Peach Trees.
The peach tree grows SO easily and
80 luxuriantly, aud over such vast
extent of country, that few think of
supplying it with other nutriment
than is found naturally in the soil.
Without doubt this is sufficient in
many cases, particularly in the newer
portions of the country. But every
year Of cropping in the usual way
lessons the fertilizing ingredients laid
away in the earth In bygone centuries,
and fruit trees, as we'll as corn, wheat,
etc, suffer by its diminution. Indeed,
fruit bearing. particularly bearing
heavy crops of large fine fruit, makes
one of the heaviest drafts, II not the
heaviest of all, on the land.
Among fertilizers one of the most
important for most crops-end partic-
ularly for fruit trees-is potash In
some form. This is easily applied in
wood ashes, none of which, even II
leached for soap making, should ever
be wasted 1t Is very trying TO gee
ashes emptied out In the road or by
the side of run as has been observed
more than once. The ashes may be
applied whenever convenient, not
around the trunk where they can do
little good, but scattered over the en-,
tire surface as wide as the branches
extend. Anyone who has tried this
must have noticed the fine growth Of
the trees and the thrifty dark green
OF the leaves afterward.
1t Is not probable that ashes will
cure the yellows now becoming 20
common in some sections, though ct
one time there was considerable hope
In this direction But prevention 10
better than cure, and there Is good
reason to believe that . peach tree
kept in vigorous health will be able TO
resist the yellows, just as perfect
health in the human system prevents
or throws off many forms Of dise4ses
BARNARD manure Is also good fer
tilizer for peach trees as well - Tor
most other things dependent on the
soil. But 1t should be remembered
that ashes or anything containing
potash must not be applied ut the
same time with barnyard manure, for
the ammonia, one of the best elements
in the latter, would be liberated by
the potash and lost. Six months at
least should intervene between the
application of these two valuable fer
tilizers-the best, probably. OF all fer
tilizing materials, considering every
thing. Stockman.

Doctor John, firmly, 80 that / also

lazily. They had been to the top OF
Sisty's peak for elk all that day, but
found no sign of one, only young
antelope, the chops of which, with the
fried onions, Mike was cooking for
supper.
The doctor, radiant in his lowered
dressing gown, but, alas! minus his
beautifully-embroidered cap, stirred
the tobacco in his pipe and leaned COM
fortably back in his chair.
Don't scorn onions, Craig. know

"Womenkind?" Oliver asked, vague

"He might think you robbers and
shoot said the doctor, calmly. BE

Why do you wish to search the house?"
Because" cried De Restaud, hoarse-
", my wife is gone. and he is the
only one who would dare to help her

"Your pardon, monsieur. OF course
you are naturally upset, but Mr..
Oliver has only met the lady once; is il

"and. if he is your friend, he is a
blackguard; he is, as | know, the only

"Not the only one" said the little
doctor, rising. 81 should have been
very glad to have helped the young
lady escape from your care; any true
man would have been. You are rating
the settlers here very low, monsieur
Unfortunately, all we hear of You
does not point tc your making either q

In his heart the doctor was thinking
