A Bachelor Who Had Idea There
Was Some Compensation.
a Washington Star reporter was talk
ing the other evening to an Ohio man
who owns a peach ranch down in
Georgia. He had been down there look
ing over it for a month or six weeks,
and had learned several things about
the crackers which he had not hitherto
suspected.
They're a queer lot" he went on,
land 1 had a most interesting time
among them. You see, l stayed on my
place right with them, and was thus
enabled to see them and learn their Pc
culiarities as could not possibly have
done in any other way. One of the odd
est specimens was a bachelor farmer,
who lived down the road from my place
about half mile. He was an old chap
and about as shiftless as any in the en-
tire county, and the way he lived was a
sight to behold. One morning as I
passed his farm 1 saw him fixing a
tumbledown fence and I stopped. All
around were apples and pumpkins and
other farm products going to waste, and
off at a little distance were beech and
chestnut trees with nuts in abundance
and nobody paying any attention to
them.
"'Good morning. says I.
"'How d'y,' says he.
"fYou've got a good deal Of stuff
around here says I.
Yes says he, yanking out a fence
rail e
"'And it's all going to waste says L
"I reckon it u.s. says he, carelessly.
"'You ought to have wife and chill

"I don't have to- says he, solemnly,
I've got hogs
"And that was all the satisfaction I
got out of him." concluded the Buckeye.

One of the Reasons Why Many of Them
Are Unpaiatable.

One of the Reasons Why Many of Them
Are Unpaiatable.
From the New York World: A mys-
teTious disease which has attacked
many orange trees in Florida has been
discovered to be indigestion. The de-
partment of agriculture in it's Year
Book" pays special attention to dyspep-
tic oranges and describes the disease
and it's cure. It's cause is the same as
that which so often brings on dyspep-
STA in human beings-overfeeding Ex-
seccive cultivation and too much nitro
genous manure affect the orange tree
just as too much heavy table d'hote
dinners affect a man. Instead of look
ing pale and taking pepsin tablets, how
ever, the orange tree turns a very dark
green and reddish brown sap eXudes
from the twigs. The tips turn up and
shape themselves into like curves.
The fruit turns a lemon-yellow color
before it is half ripe and has very
thick rind. AS it ripens the fruit splits
open and becomes worthless. The red
dish-brown resin gets on the fruit be-
fore it is ripe and renders it unstable.
Most of the diseases of the orange trees
are due to lack of cultivation and it
was thought that a tree would not take
more nutriment from the soil than it
required. This is not so, for the tree
takes up all it can get, and then, like a
small boy who has eaten too much plum
pudding, becomes sick. The dark green
color which the foliage then assumes
is very handsome, but it means no
oranges, or at least none that is any
good. The disease is known as die-back,
because the twigs begin to die at the
tips and then gradually die back to
the branches. To cure the disease all
that is required is to withhold the fer
tilizer, but when the disease has gone
too far and gum pockets begin to form
on the bark there is no cure for it.
