strawberries.
Soil and location will change the
character of fruit.
In setting out strawberry plants
be sure to spread the roots out even
ly.
The grape is inexpensive to plant
bears early, is productive and easily
managed.
In pruning trees of any kind it is
better to have one strong limb than
two weak ones.
Thoroughly ripe, fresh fruit is
pleasant to the taste, cooling to the
system, nourishing and laxative.
1t is good plan to plant out a
few apple and peach trees every
year to keep up the supply Of fruit
Cultivation of young trees, for
some years after planting, is an es-
sential condition of their making a
vigorous growth.
Manure should be applied to the
grape vines in the Fall, SO that it
may leach into the soil during the
Winter. 1t will also act as mulch.
Now is a good time 70 cut out all
useless, weak or spindling wood on
the fruit trees. A twig that can be
cut with knife now may require
saw next Fall.
Handle the fruit intended for long
keeping as tenderly as possible, and
no more than is strictly necessary.
Picking into bushel boxes will make
the handling easier.
Now is a good time to make grape
cuttings. Let each cutting have
three or four eyes and be planted in
dry, loose soil, SO that only the
top bud will be exposed.
One advantage in manuring the
orchard late in the Fall is that then
the manure will begin its work, and
early next Spring, just when the
trees will most need it, it will be
there.
In packing apples for market un-
usually large, fine apples should be
kept separate, and form an extra
fine quality to sell at fancy prices,
preserving uniformity in size as
much as possible.
When first potted, plants should
be watered thoroughly, so as to set
tie the soil. Afterwards water them
according to their requirements. A
plant making rapid growth must
have plenty of moisture.
The object Of pruninga vine is to
concentrate the growth and product
i've capacity Of the plant upon the
fruiting ola comparatively few buds,
and not spread it over great length
of vine and numerous buds.
One reason why plants do not
succeed in window culture is lack
ofhumidity in the air. The principal
reasons why plants so often do well
in a kitchen window is because
there is more moisture in the air.
Apples will endure much lower
temperature than will potatoes.
The cooler they are kept without
freezing the better. When stored in
cellars good ventilation is necessary,
and as even temperature as pos
sible.
When the ground is frozen an
inch or two deep is the best time for
putting mulch on the strawberry
bed. 1t is not necessary, nor even
desirable, to cover the leaves COM
pletely, but to cover the ground
around and among the plants.
Make cuttings of young wood
about eight inches long with bud
close to the lower end, stick them

FREE COINAGE OF
SILVER.

The free and unlimited coinage of
silver, the product of American mines,
at the old ratio of I6 of silver to I of
gold, is the only solution of and
remedy for the disturbed and unsatis-
factory condition of trade, manufac-
ture and general business Of the coun-
try. The surreptitious act of 1873,
divorcing silver and gold in our none
tary system, was a crime of untold
magnitude. 1t was the rankest kind
of class legislation in favor Of the
wealthy against the producers of
wealth, and hostile to the prosperity
of the United States. 1t was an act
of treason because done at the instance
of European syndicate and for bribe
money, "giving aid and comfort to
our country's enemies" To shield
the guilty parties, the well authenti-
Gated facts, often published, have been
vigorously denied.
The Enquirer will continue to ex-
pose this objectionable crime until
right and justice are done the people
by the full restoration of silver to its
old companionship with gold. We
need the assistance of the people in
disseminating the truth, to which end
we invite all in your selection of pa
pers for the coming season to include

THE SPECIES OF ASH INDiGEil-
GUS TO OHIO,

Prof. kellerman Mentions Briefly the
Points That Characterize Each.
The species of ash are graceful trees
with light green pinnat, leaves and
very incouspicuous flowers, but long
winged fruits. The wood is usually
very elastic and tough. 1t is second in
Importance only to the oak.
OF the thirty species that occur
throughout the temperate or warm
regions of the northern hemisphere,
five are indigenous to Ohio. One of
these, the white ash, Frax' linus
a-mer-i-ca'-na), grows everywhere and
no one fails to recognize it at sight.
The bark is grayish and deeply fur
rowed. The leaflets are pale beneath,
and this character serves to distinguish
the species from all others. The blue
ash (FraX-i-nus quad-ran-gu-la'- tai. is
not so widely distributed. 1. is how
ever common through the central and
southern portion of the state. The
branches are square on the vigorous
young shoots, and the bark is lighter
in color.
A third species is the hoop or black
ash FraX linus ni'-gra), growing in
swamps or wet places. The bark is
dark colored but not deeply furrowed.
1t is unmistakably separated from all
the other species by its leaflets being
sessile, that is having no stem or foot
stalk.
The other two species resemble the
white ash and perhaps are often con-
fused with it. The exact distribution
in Ohio is not on record. and farther
information on this point is desired.
They are the red ash (Frax' linus penn
syl-van-i-ca), and the green ash Frax'-
i-nus lan-ce-o-la'-t
The branchlets and the leaf-stalks of
the red ash are velvety-hairy and the
species is therefore unmistakable. The
green ash is smooth throughout. Its
leaflets are bright-green both sides. 1t
is rather smaller than the other spe-
cies and should not, if carefully ex-
amined, be confused with them.
The wood of the blue, red and green
ash il not equal to that of the white
ash, though lumbermen class it with
the latter. That of the black ash is
somewhat darker, coarser-grained, and
more easily separated into layers,
hence its use indicated in the common
name, hoop ash.

as cows usually do not do SO well at

there is no requirement of uniformity
as to either kind or quantity of food
given. In tests at agricultural ex-
pertinent stations. it is not certain that
the cows equally well represent the
