Best Time to Transplant Citrus Tree.

During a recent visit to my orange
groves In Florida, l asked prominent
nurseryman which month of the year he
thought best to set out citrous trees, says
writer in Florida Agriculturist. His re-
ply conceded with my own experience,
Said he: November is the best month, for
these reasons: The shock of transplanting
practically insures the top from injury
from frost. At this season the ground is
warm, and usually moist so that callous-
ing quickly takes place, the roots start
at once, and grow all winter. BY March
the tree is firmly established and ready
TO make top growth, whereas, If planted
in February, the ground is cold, and the
dry March winds that follow, delay the
formation of roots, and the usual result Is
that very little top growth is made the
following summer" II believe" said he,
that trees planted in November will grow
better and produce fruit one year earlier
than those planted in February" 'Tf this
be so why do not people plant in Novem-
ber?'' asked. With a smile he answer
ed. MANY people want the nurseryman to
take all chances of freeze, which risk
really amounts to nothing to the buyer,
for the sap Is busy underground forming
new roots, while the top remains dormant
until repairs are completed" Said he: II
have known rough lemons stock trans
planted first week in November to make
new roots eight to twelve inches long by
April ], and the tops to make extraor-
binary growth the following summer"
My friends argument is sound and is borne
out by my own experience. Plant in Mo-
vember, bank the earth eight to twelve
inches high about the trunk, and you may
laugh at Jack Frost for the first season,
at least.

10 GET RID of Rats.

Some wears ago I discovered accident
allv a. way to get rid of rats, not only the
rats won kill. but of all the rats. I was
leaving my house on the suburbs OF town
TO spend the summer on the farm, ana
the rats at my stable were running the
harness. feed and everything in their
reach. I put down poison literally, using
s+rvchnine in a dust of meal, wrapped in
small parcels; these put down the notes.
placing a brick over each hole rev
weeks after 1 happened to be at the sta
ble. I found dead rats everywhere in the
garden and stable. They were not re-
moved from the place, no one being on the
premises. Some months afterwards we re-
turned and found the place clean OF rats
and it was more than two years before an
other rat was seen, though nelghoors
nIaces were badly infested. ] am satisfied
that the carcass of their dead friends
scared off the live rats, and as long as
the latter kept their memory green
thew gave my lot a wide berth. l nave
since tried this plan in my grain barn,
and always with success. / bait corner
of the barn with a piece of bacon, lacking
It to the floor and replacing 1t daily as the
rats eat 1t up; then, when all have gotten
accustomed to taking it, l dose a piece
with poison, mailing 1t to the floor so that
it cannot be carried away, and leave the
dead rats in the barn.
Within week there will not be live
rat in the place, and 1t will be several
years before they consent to live with the
bones of rats plenufully scattered about,
as constant reminders of the unhealthineSs
of the situation. l believe the instinct of
of the rat keeps it away from such a
place.-Southern Planter

AT THE THEATER.


"Fabio Romani," an adaptation of Ma
RE CorreIlrs THE Vendetta" will open
the week at the theater. The scenery of
the production is one of Its features. The
first and last acts are the scenic acts of
the play. The first act represents the city
of Naples and it's surroundings. In the
last act the same picture is presented
with the addition of Mount Vesuvius in
active eruption accompanied by the roar
of an earthquake and the crumbling of
buildings. A critic says of Miss Vests
acting: Miss Olive West as Nina" the
false wife, did some exceptionally fine act
ing; one could easily imagine he saw a
woman who cared nothing for mans
love, but who delighted in the possession
of gold and jewels; false as the most cap
tivating siren and ever ready to throw
womanly virtue to the winds for a new
lover capable of gratifying her desire for
jewels. The finest piece of acting during
the production was In the MauSoleum
scene, In the last act, and gave both Miss
West and Mr.. Benedict an opportunity to
display their fullest ability. Miss Vests
emotion and Mr. Benedicts portrayal of
the man whose idol had proved false, and
whose desire was revenge, called forth
numerous outbursts of applause. The
Spanish, serpentine fire and stereopticon
dances introduced by Miss Grace Hunter
was one of the strong features"

and Miss Leila Walston. Mr.. Whteside' S

originality. His Interpretation of the
character is different from that of any
other actor. A close student of all that
has been written concerning this many
sided parsonage Mr. Whiteside has had
the courage to discard the accepted read
ing of many lines which stage traditions
alone seem to authorize, and has given
them an Interpretation which has invested
them with new strength and meaning. He
does not attempt to force dramatic effect.
