their regular meeting last Wednesday
evening, and after that ceremony the
doors were thro wn open to- the Odd Eel

There was a large attendance and a
great time was had by all. The routiue

order OF the evening seemed to be any
thing new and unique. Droll and en-

made the time fly.
The ladies dispensed coffee and lunch
and it was midnight before the fun
ceased and the guests departed. Many
have remarked that they enjoyed the
evening much ore than they did any
previous occasion OF the kind and hold
the event in pleasant memory.

This offer is made TO publishers OF

Friends of POpuiiSm might take a

Horticultural Mythology,

There is perhaps no other pursuit
IN which SO many vagarieS and foolish
ideas are entertained as there are in
horticulture.
One If not the greatest myths, is
the WhOle-rOOt graft theory. This
mythical humbug of whole-root CRAFTS
was most thoroughly exploded. Some
years ago at one of our meetings in
Winfield, by William Cutter. MIR,
Cutter al that time exhibited speci-
mems OF one year old apple trees
grown on a number of different lengths
OF roots; there was no perceptible
difference in the growth between the
whole or the piece root graft.
At this same meeting pear blight
was discussed; one good old brother
had found a sure remedy, for, he said,
tried it on one of my pear trees, the
trunk was blighted all the way round
and the tree continued to live all
right. Mr.. Cutter asked if he had
ever tried it on a dead one?
One of the most wonderful state
ments was made to the writer as
follows: He said a gentleman in
Illinois had taken One-half the seed
OF a sweet apple and One-half the
seed OF a sour apple, put the two
halVeS together, and planted it and
raised a tree, the apples produced be-
Ing one'half sweet The other half
sour.
Planting seeds and trees in the
moon theory is believed and advocated
oy many good people. A gentleman
showed me two Towering almond
SHRUBS, one being full of bloom the
other had no blossoms; he explained
Dy saying the one full of bloom was
planted in the light the other in the
dark Of the moon. A neighbor OF
mine says when trees bloom in the
dark of the moon no fruit will he
Dorne. Potatoes planted in the dark
OF the moon will do no good. Po-
tatoes OF different varieties planted
near together will unite in the hill.
Many 'fallacies have sobtained
IoOthOld, even 10 some of our most
respectable publications, and are
generally believed in by even otherwise
well informed people. Such as mulch.
Ing bearing fruit trees while the
ground is frozen to retain the cold
and thus retard blooming, the bloom
or pollen from one sort affecting the
size, shape, color and quality of another
sort which happens to be close to it.
The influence of stock upon trees:
that the stock influences the cion or
bud that may be put upon it, that
the result is different in the season of
ripening, the color, shape and quality
OF the product. Close criticism will
show that when the atmosphere and
sunshine are favorable the buds will
burst and leaves and blossom will put
forth regardless of the conditions Of
soil about the roots.
The bloom Of one sort affects only
the seed of an adjacent sort, and not
the fruit itself. The cion or bud is
only continuation of the tree from
which it was taken regardless of the
stock or root it may be worked upon.
Each sort has its own peculiar roots
and they are governed by the TOP.

leaf. G. W.BALEy

ment in the saving of many millions
Of dollars, bat to the vast army of
pensioners as well.
W. F. Rockwell, prominent manu-
facturer Of New York, is author of
the bill. ut has long been the idea
Of congress-" said Mr.. Rockwell, in
speaking Ofshis'plan to an Associated
Press reporter, that pensioners are
dependent, whereas, as a matter of
fact, the great bulk of them are indie
pendent. Thousands Of them are
owners Of farms in the west, which
are mOrtgaged, the mortgages Bearing
interest anywhere from s to II per
cent. My idea is to issue negotiable
bonds to the pensioners, or to pay
them the cash at their option, to
cover the amount they would receive
from the government, based on life
insurance expectancy. This would
enable them to pay off these mort
cages, thus saving TO them the differ
ences between the lowest rate Of H.
tereSt in any state, 6 per cent, and
the interest on the bonds, 2! per
cent.
"This would relieve them from their
present entanglements. There are
10 round numbers, about $4,000 per-
sons on the pension rolls, and TO those
who are not owners of farms the pay
ment of the entire amount which, ac.
cOrding to my table, would be due
them would enable many of them to
start in business and this in itself
would put into circulation a large
amount Of money that would inure to
the benefit, not only of the cOmmun-
ity in which they reside, but to the
country.
ut would also be a great saving to
the government in the matter of sal
aries and expenses, since it would do
away with the pension office machin-
cry, while the only expense the gov
eminent would incur would be in the
issuing of the bonds. Ii would also
do away with pension attorneys, who
receive from pensioners a good share
OF the money paid out for them -
