TREES IN THE ORCHARD.

The HexaRonal Arrangement Preferable
I to the Square.
There are several methods of ar
ranging the trees in an orchard, says a
recent Canadian bulletin. The one
usually adopted is the square, most
used no doubt because many do not
know Of better. BY this arrange.
ment the trees are planted in rows the
same distance apart each way, four
trees forming a square. A much better
plan is what is known as the hexagon-
al. By this system fifteen per cent.
more trees can be grown per acre
without the least bit more crowding-
no small item when we consider that
the profits per acre are increased ac-
cording1y.
BY the hexagonal arrangement the
trees in the second row are set alter
mating with those in the first. six trees
forming hexagon and inclosing a
seventh in the center. To ascertain
the correct position for the first tree
in the second row, and consequently
the distance apart Of the rows that
way of the orchard, take two strings
the same length as the distance apart
at which the trees are to be planted,
fasten the end of one to the first and
the other to the second stake in the
first row, then stretch the free ends
out till they meet; this point will
mark the position for the first tree in
the second row.

what is denomInated Valkyries weather
is calculated to satisfy the yacht sharps
of this side of the water TO their hearts
content and to lend fear to the minds of
those who have hoped for a reversal of
American form and the winning of the
cup by the Englishmen. No event in
the history of the sport ever excited the
interest shown in the race today. Since
Vigilant beat Valkyrie II. in 1893 the in
ternatonal contest has been kept well in
mind, and the enthusiasm displayed to
day was merely the outcome of the pent
up feelings Of the past year or two.
PRESS TUG TO THE COURSE.
The Associated Press tug, which left
her dock at very early hour, passed
many strange craft outward bound to
the Hook. Off Bay Ridge there were
gathered most of the crack yachts of the
por. and some visitors and all along the
line boats lay in readiness to join the
fleet around the Old Scotland lightship.

A great swinging roll was encountered
long before the Hook came in view, and
the verdict was that if the wind was

And so it proved. OF the thousands

Il ere were at least hundreds who cared
very little that thers was great inter-

enthusiasm, and the rest, to whom sick
ness came not, had every reason to arouse
themselves to the beauty of the struggle.
A grander hight for position was never

expenses in connection with the present
series of the races for the Americas Gun
Will amount to not less than $240, 900.
Hardly less than this amount will be
expended by Lord Dunraven in the same
good cause. and it is impossible to esti-
mate what it cost the 80, 900 people who
occupied the steamers in veiwing the
contest today.
ANOTHER ACCOUNT
The first of the 1895 races for the Amer
ica's cup which was sailed today over
course of fifteen miles to windward and
return, between the English challenger
Valkyrie III and the American defender
OF that name, was won fairly and squarely
by the defender, but it did look for
considerable period in the early part of
the race as though the English boat was
the hetier and would cross the finishing
line first. Never in the history of the
races for the cup has the foreign boat
shown to such great advantage as dio
Valkyrie TODAY. She got over the line
first and for long time pointed higher
and outiooted the American boar. Many
were the tears shed by the Yankee sharps
who mad counted on three stra gbt vic
tories for the Defender, when they saw
the Britisher, even when well pitched up
in the wind, and sailing probably fromsa
half point to point higher than Defender,
going through the water faster and
ahead. The first surprise of the day was
in the position that the Defender showed
on crossing the line. Very strange to saw,
she was little bit windward of the Eng
lish boat behind, it is true, bys four sec
onds, but still windward. There hal been
SO much said about the superior skipper
feared by thousands of Americans who
witnessed the scene that the Defender
would not only be behind at the start,
but that she would be SO thoroughly
blanKeted that she would never have a
show in the whole race, but while the
Englishmen did get over the line first,
by about half a length, the Yankee was
on top of him instead of being below or
underneath his wind.
MANEUVERING FOR POSITION.
There was very pretty manouvering for
position above the line, which was FORM

and another just off Seabright, n. ]. It
had been the intention of the committee
to start the boats from the Sandy Hook |

up above the others, clad in white, deck

even in that light breeze skimmlng over
the wafer like beings endowed with life
and beauty. The preparatory gun found
both boats long waiting for it. Far off
in the distance the spectators on the
beach saw the smoke, and strained their
eyes for the start. The twowhite- winged

like wrestlers trying for hold. Several
times they came about exactly together,
as one boat. but it was finally observed
that the Englishman would undoubtedly
cross the line first. To the plaudits of
those who watched the seamanship, Cap
tain Half brought the Defender quickly
about with her rival on the last tack,
and the Englishman crossed only four
seconds ahead with the Defender having
the wind, and, as events subsequently
showed, in much bettIr position. The
course was fifteen miles TO windward and
return. and the boats went off on the
StdTDOdTu LaCk. AT tulS tIIn6 CD6 SKY was
leaden and the wind was about five
knot breeze. The swell increased great
ly as the fleet proceeded outward, for al
though the pace was slow the sold phal-
anx OF moving craft kicked up quite
sea itself. There had been haze in the
early hours, but this was entirely dis
PEELED by the occasional sun burst. To
those ashore, and to many afoat. it was
matter Of extreme doubt, almost until
the first mark was reached. as to which
boat held the lead. Valkyrie seemed at
times to foot trife faster than the other
but Defender was pointing higher: AS
the detailed story of the contest shows,
the British boat led through the early
part OF the race, until far out beyond any
fxeu point of observation.
