Keep it in mind, that like begets

There is no advantage in mulch

Bank up young apple trees to

With a growing young orchard
the farm will augment in value in
your own eyes as in those of your
neighbor, and you will be very
independent in naming a figure.
Too little attention is paid to the
ounce as a market fruit. What
few growers there are in the coun-
try find the business a very paying
one, and there is room for more
without crowding the market.

WHY FRUIT TREES DIE.

Why SO many nursery grown
trees die when transplanted is
tcrsely and truthfuly stated in
Bulletin No. 20, of the Oklahoma
Experiment Station. 1t says
Among the causes of failure have
been the following: Failure to
prepare the land before trees ar
rive; hurried and imperfect plant
ing; high heads, exposing the body
of the tree to sunscald and attacks
of borers. Planters are urged to
set strong, healthy trees, in we'll
prepared soil, plowed deep and
sub-soiled,, first pruning the roots
to one or two inches in length,
which will cause them to strike
down deep into the soil. Start the
head fifteen to eighteen inches
from the ground and lean the tree
to the, southwest. Then the top
will L shade the trunk, prevent sun
scald and attacks Of borers. Give
frequ mt and shallow cultivation to
keep in the moisture which the
deeply SUBSIDIZED. land has caught
during winter and spring. Grow
only hoed crops, if any, in a young
orchard, and none at all in an old
one, except peas or clover to be cut
and left to decay on the land

oughly, keeping down all weeds.
Corn and potatoes may be grown
each year if the ground is thor
oughly manfred. There must be
enough manure for crops and
trees. After the trees come into
bearing the following mixture is a
good application for each acre of
orchard, Forty bushels of ashes,
100 pounds ground bone, 200
pounds sodium nitrate.
Plant pear and cherry trees
about the buildings wherever there
is vacant space which can be

A few more such prolongations of
the "last day as the present Legis-
lature has INDUCED in, and the peo-
pie will feel like inserting in the
Constitution a provision like that in
which passed the upper house of the
Arizona legislature last week-to
have legislative sessions only once in
ten years.--Deseret News.
To have legislative sessions only
once in ten years would cut down
the expenses of the State amazingly.

Baldwin, the Russell, Rambo, De-
laware Winter and others will
not bear much under ten years,

bear the second or third year,, and
will be producing heavy crops at
six or eight years.

If these varieties are plantod,a man

OF plums, the German prune,

and Moore's Arctic have the habit
of bearing crops when other trees
contain nothing but leaves.
The Rea's Mammoth. among
auices has far surpassed the old
orange, and should generally be
planted. Some peaches are more
hardy and more proctive than
others. Mountain Rose. Old
Nixon, Stump, Smock and Craw-
fords Late are generally to be
depended upon. The Early Rich
mond is the most reliable and most
profitable cherry. The black sweet
varieties, rs Black Tartanian and
Windsor, rot much less than the
white and yellow varieties.
Fay's, among clirrants, is best to
sell, the white grape is sweetest
aud best for home use. :. The
Downing gooseberry is much more
prolific than other varieties, and is
the best to plant
The Russian apricots are worth
less, good only where nothing else
will grow. The Japan plums are
yet on trial. They seem to be
about as hardy rs the peach, and
about as reliable in fruiting. Some
of them produce fruit Of very poor
quality. The Paragon, chestnut
is probably the best of its kind,
and every home should have sew
eral trees.
Every home, besides the Con-
cord, should have vines of Wor-
den, Brighton. Moore's Early,
Pocklington, Delaware, Niagara,
Black Defiance, and if it will ripen,
the Catawba. The Catawba is the
best red raspberry, the Gregg,
Ohio and Palmer stand at the head
OF the blackcaps, while Golden.
Queen is the best yellow berry for
the masses. The best summer
apples are Yellow Transparent,
Early Harvest, Mother, Queen,
Benoni, Red Astrschan, Primate,
Summer Rose, Strawberry, Amer
lean Summer Pearmain, and E.rly
Joe. The best autumn apples are
Jefferis, Porter, Rambo, Maiden's
Blush, Smokehouse and Hayes.
The best winter apples are Bald
win, Smiths Cider, York Imperial,
Eallowater, Winesap, English
Russell, Rhode Island Greening,
and Ben Davis. Plant few trees
every year. The orchard can be
made an element of profit on every
farm.

U1o ON Evanseiisfic Services.

The Z 81 vices which are being held in Bel Air
the tov n have steadily increased in interest
and ini nee. Cottage prayer meetings have
been II at the residences Of Mrs. d. Is.
Reckori, Mrs. A. I. Geatty and Mrs. Isaac
Amos, IN addition to those mentioned last
week. The services at the Court House,
which closed on Tuesday, were well attended
and were beneficial in their results. The one
held on Sunday afternoon was especially note
worthy and effective. 1t was probably the
best religious meeting ever held in Bel Air,
and the impressions made were particularly
strong. The room was almost taxed to its
utmost by an interested and earnest congre-
CATION of men.
Mr.. Weston Il. Gales, the evangelist who
conducted the meetings is plain, foTceful
aud earnest speaker, and one who presents
the truths of the Gospel as they are, without
establishment, and drives them home to the
hearts and minds of his hearers. He was
compelled to leave on Wednesday morning in
order to fulfil an engagement 1T Augusta,
Georgia. On Sunday, February 9TH, he will
commence two weeks engagement at the
Presbyterian Church, on Maryland avenue
near Guif0rd avenue, Baltimore.
Mr. Gales left Bel Air on the S \. NJ. train,
and the scene at the depot as he took his de-
parture was an unusual and inspiring one
Over hundred of the citizens of the town as
sembled to bId him Godspeed and an i'm
promptu meeting was held, prayer offered, a
short address made by Mr.. Gales and familiar
hymns sung As the train rolled in, the we'll
known words of God Be With You'' were
heartily sung and good byes said.
The growing interest during his stay was
manifested by the merchants closing their
places of business each evening at 80 in Or
der that employees might attend the services.
