How to Grow q Successful Orchard In the
Great Corn Iselt.

How to Grow q Successful Orchard In the
Great Corn Beit.
Fruit growing In the west Is no long
er an experiment, but an established
fact, as was clearly demonstrated at
cur great exposition In Chicago. But
to grow successful orchard in the
great corn belt of the west requires
careful management. The amateur
without education along the line OF
horticulture, or experience, would be
as likely 10 make a failure in fruit
growing as the sailor would in agricul-
ture, or the dry goods man in the fine
stock business. To be successful in
fruit growing at least three things
should be understood: Selection of soil.
varieties of trees to plant, ard how to
plant and cultivate.
First, we would consider the selec-
| ton OF soil and location of the orchard.
1t is important to have q good location
near the dwelling convenient for tine
wife and children, to make horie cheer
full and fruit accessible, and invite the
winged songsters to cnliven all nature
around us.
The location should be on tic high-
est elevation possible, so as to afford
cir drainage to lessen the danger from
frost in the blossoming period, and as
sist in ripening the terminal buds for
winter.
The ground should be strong and
rich. The idea that some have adj
vanced that thin soil Is needed for an
orchard, is thing of the past. The
soil must be strong enough to grow a
good crop Of corn. would prefer clay
subsoii as they retain moisture better
than any other, and would prefer q
deep, black, vegetable mold for the
surface. find that such soils are well
adapted for fruit, and produce apples
Of high color and excellent quality,
and our drift deposits are valuab BILE for
fruit, such as are found on the Missouri
slope west of the divide in the Mis-
souri, valley, that are being purchased
by fruit men and planted to fruit. But
/ cannot urge the selection of good,
rich, dry soils too much for fruit lands.
At the exposition we made it a strong
point to ascertain where all the best
specimens Of fruit grew in Iowa and
other states, and we invariably found
that they grew on hign, dry, rich soils.
But an ware that many cannot SO.
lect dry, rolling land. but must plant
on level land. To such would say,
pillow your ground in ridges, SO as to
carry off the surface water, aud plant
deep on the ridges, and have the
ground thoroughly tile drained. The
tile should be laid from four to five
feet deep. Fruit trees viii never thrive

(Frem hs Republican. Cedar Rapids. Fora.)
Mrs. V. Curley, who has resided In Clar-
ence, Iowa, for tho past twenty-five years,
tells an interesting story of what she con-
siders rescue from premature death. Her
narrative Is as follows:
"For ten years prior TO 1894 was q con-
slant sufferer from acute stomach trouble.
had all the manifold symptoms Of acute
dyspepsia, and at times other troubles were
present in complication-I did not know
what it was to enjoy meal No matter

cation which would come on without a
moments warning.
Ny troubles increased as time wore on,

water brashes plagued me. Twas reduced

was unable to determine just what did all
me. The doctors gave US as their opinion
that the probable trouble was liberation Of
the coats of the stomach, and held out no
hope of recovery. One doctor said: "All
can do to relieve your suffering Is by the use
of opium.
About this time friend Of mine, Mrs.
SAMANTHA Smith, of Glidden, Iowa, told
me about the case Of Mrs. Thurston, OF Ok
ford Junction, Iowa. This lady said she
had been afflicted much the same as had.
She had consulted local physicians without
relief, and had gone to Davenport for treat
inent. Giving up all hope of recovery, she
was persuaded by friend to take DR..

OUTDOOR EXERCISE.
1t II Beneficial to the Housewife as to the
Society Belle.

IL II Beneficial to the Housewife rs to the
Society Belle.
Among the many forms of athletic
exercise which are being advocated at
present, the good old one of walking
seems to have suffered neglect We
all practice it to some degree, and yet
few of us enough. The very fact of
its being a common thing of our every
day life has made people overlook its
value. Like no other exercise, it can
be enjoyed by the poor as we'll as the
rich, and, If taken in moderation, by
the weak as we'll as the strong. Not
every girl or woman can play tennis,
ride horse or bicycle, or attend
gymnasium, but any one, old or young,
who is not a cripple and is in ordinary
health, can walk. Regular brisk
walking in the open air would be the
best medicine in the world for many
ills, imaginary and otherwise, to which
women are subject. In fact, physicians
prescribe systematic walks of reason
able length as a part of their treat
ment in many cases, and it is generally
the hardest part to make the patient
obey.
City and country women alike neglect
to walk, though for some what differ
ent reasons. l think that, on the
whole, those in the cities deserve less
to be accused, although it was city
girl who said recently that she did not
go out to walk for two or three weeks
unless obliged to in order to do some
errand. In these days, when car lines
run to every part of the city, and will
take us SO quickly and easily wherever
we wish to go, it is great temptation
to most people to ride. The notorious
and unfortunate American habit of
hurrying is often responsible for it; for
we look at our watches, think how
much time we should lose by walking,
and decide that we can not afford it.
In most cases it would be not loss, but
gain.
But in the country, where in pleas
ant weather it is a positive delight
simply to be out of doors, the small
amount of walking done by the
| women is almost incredible. The
family generally keep at least
one horse, and if they live on
a large farm, probably several. 1t
| does not take five minutes to ''hitch
| up" and wherever they are going, be
| it only half a mile, they always drive.
| Or, if they are living in village, per-
haps they do not own a horse. Then
when the morning house work is fin
ished, the girls sit down and sew or
| read, or perhaps run in to see q neigh.
Dor few doors off. All this is pleas
ant and well enough. but it should not
prevent their taking good walk every
| afternoon, if they would only be con-
| WINGED of the benefit to be obtained
| therefrom. The argument that house
| work furnishes sufficient exercise will
not hold good. 1t is valuable in its
place, but work performed inside the
house, often over hot fire and in close
rooms, is very different thing from
walking in the fresh air, and can not
be made to do instead of it. We often
hear it said that city girls are apt to
look roster and healthier than their
country sisters, and where that is true
it is due to the indoor life of many
women in villages and on the outlying
farms. Bazar.

Put Them on . Wagon and You Have .
Substitute for Slcigh.
The following has been described as
q very effectual way of converting a
wagon or carriage into a vehicle that
will glide over the snow easily: Two
pieces of hard wood board are used for
each wheel. Cut each two and half
feet long and six inches wide, and dress
off the corners for runners, precisely as
II going to make boys board-runuer
sled. After the corners of the edge
are rounded or curved like runners,
one wheel of the vehicle is raised two
inches from the floor or ground, and
these two board-runners bolted with
three carriage bolts to the lowest spot
on the rim of the wheel, one board
runner being on each side of the rim.
Use carriage bolts about three and a
half inches long by three-eighths
square at the head. One bolt is put
through SO as to rest on the upper side
of the rim, while two other bolts pass
through below the rim, near the ends
of the board-runners, close to the out
side of the wheel. Two board-runners
are bolted in the same manner to each
wheel. A small scantling or stick is
then secured back of the hindmost
springs between two spokes of each
hind wheel, to prevent the wheels turn.

ened with q similar piece of timber
about two inches square.
