Benjamin f. Pitzel and the alleged
assassin of twenty-one others, is the
only murderer in this state now under

The Others were granted a commuta-
ton of sentence to life imprisonment.

When to Prune.

Summer pruning is advocated BY
many. Nariously, however, we can
not cut away the foliage of any plant
without,to some extent, impalring its
vitality 1t would appear then that
the next best season is during the
dormant period. RMraI Nco0 Krker
has long been of the opinion that the
best time to prune is not to prune at
all, except it may be in the case of
grapevines and other plants that must
be restrained. For example is taken a
young pear or apple tree. Just as
soon as a,bud appears which is in the
wrong place rub it off. The tree
receives no check, and symmetry and
any desired size may be thoroughly
controlled. This method of restraint
may be applied even to peach trees,
which bear their fruit upon the food
of the preceding year.
The authority quoted says that
there need be little doubt that the
longevity of fruit trees is lessened by
cutting off branches. Even though
the bark ultimately grows over the
wound, the wood will have been ex-
posed to the air long enough to have
begun the process Of decay which will
in time affect the younger outer por-
tions of the live wood And these
parts will be the first to succumb to
high winds.

A Fertile Valley Ruinsd.

The opening of the Jeddo Tunnel,
by which the mines on the north side
of Hazelton are drained and a large
body Of valuable coal is made access
ible, has destroyed the farm land of
the Conyngham Valley, one of the
most fertile and picturesque valleys in
the State. Some of the farmers have
lost heavily by the deposits of culm
filled with mlne water, among them
being man named Roth, who has
brought an action for damages in the
Luzerne county courts. A board oi
arbitration has been at work on the
case last week.
