WET WEATHER ROADS.

Of the Country \.
Perhaps never does the need Of good
roads manifest itself so strongly in a,
community Of farmers asswhere: they
attempt to carry on a cooperative en-
terprise, such as creamery:or cheese
factory. So long as the farmer remains
at home On his-own land, il makes no
difference to him whether his roads be
smooth as asphalt or rough and stony
as mountain pass; or whether they be
hard and level like the English high
ways of macadam or soft and sticky
like the ground about the pigsty. It is
only when itseomes to going to town.
especially If :itsbe with a load of crops,
that the condition of the highway cuts
any figure. Audit becomes more inn
portant than 4evsr where farmers are
obliged to drive t0a creamery each day
in the year with their milk. In most
of the states, dairYing has only of late
become great industry, but its con-
tinued growth calls more loudly than
ever TO: the construction of roads which
will enable: the creamery patrons to
deliver their milk without wearing out
their. horses, whenever the weather
takes an unfavorable turn. a Wet

The Cost Of Transporta tion,

Mr.. Edward Atkinson, the we'll
known statistician, recently stated that
in the year 1895 1921 tons of food, fuel,
fbers, and fabrics were moved 1876
miles over the railways of this country
for every man, woman and child in the
nation, numbering that year about H.
100000. This eoughtto give one areali-
zation of what a slight saving of trans
portation amounts to when aggregated
for the entire populat ton; and as the
most costly freigh tstraffc is'over coun-
try roads from the producing farms to
the shipping cent erss we. must conclude
that the maximum saving on railway
freight represents. but a fraction Of
whatwould be saved on road haulingif
the public ways were kept in passable
condition throughout the year.-Out

THE FARMING WORLD.
SETTING PEACH TREES.
An Ohio Fruit-Grower Tells How and
When to Do 1t.

d ; VI = =- e y +
An Ohio Fruit-Grower Tells How and
When to Do 1t.
One year ago last May we set 100
peach trees. Having often heard the
advice given to set small trees instead
of the large, first-class ones we felt that
possibly we had made mistake when
giving the order. Wishing to save the
time of one or two years growth, if
possible. we ordered the best two-year-
old trees. They were shipped in good
condition and were set as soon as re-
ceived. They were we'll set, allowing
all roots their natural position. We cut
any roots off that would otherwise be
cramped or bent up and cut off all in
jured or mangled portions of roots.
Did not dig all the holes before begin
ming to set the trees as some do, but set
stakes for the trees and then brought
the trees out to convenient place in
the orchard, covering the roots with a
quantity of wet straw and moss with
blankets over this.
It takes very little hot sun and still
less of drying wind directly on plant or
tree roots to affect their growth. The
spot selected for the trees had been
plowed very deep and thoroughly fitted
before the trees came. Each hole was
dug for the particular root that was to
be planted in it. After the hole was
dug the tree was placed in position,
when man No. held it there and
tramped the fine soil about the roots
as man No. shoveled the dirt in. After
the trees were planted we cut them
back or pruned them until they had
the appearance of a whipstock, and
that about 3H feet in length.
It seems almost a waste of growth
and the wrong thing to do to prune a
nice shaped tree so severely, but our
limited experience in this line has
taught us that it is the thing to do, and
that the tree will soon more than make
up in growth for this "setback." Out
of the 100 we have lost one tree.
They have made remarkable growth
and we have not regretted setting large
trees. The above trees are now we'll
filled with fruit buds, but buds on a
peach tree this time of year cannot al
ways be considered buds of promise.
We did not consider it necessary to
lose the use of tie ground while the
trees were getting large enough to
fruit. We set strawberries for plants
in the rows of trees and three feet from
this row on each side just half way
between the tree rows one way we set
raspberries. Trees, berry plants and
all were mulched with stable manure
one year ago, and all expressed their
thanks for it in growth the past sum-
mer.-A. d. DIN, in National Stock

Art, of Hog Drivinr

The difficulty of driving single hog
was well illustrated the other afternoon
at about train time. Some men were
driving herd of swine to Amherst,
and as they approached the bridge, one
of the animals became obstreperous
and bolted toward the city, becoming
thereby separated from the rest of the
drove. The three or four men, assisted
by volunteers, placed themselves be-
tween the city and the rebellious hog
iii a semicircle, while one of their NUM-
Der advanced cautiously and began to
tickle the hogs nose with pine brush.
This would make the animal turn
round, and each time he did so he would
move few steps toward the bridge
and the rest of the drove. The maneuv-
ers were watched with great deal of
Interest by large crowd of specta-
tors, and when finally the wayward one
returned to the bosom of the drove a

went up from the crowd.-Lynchburg

Cause of Some Eailurea

It is an easy matter to set few cur
rants and gooseberry plants along the
fence row, and then leave them to the
mercy of weeds and worms without
fertilization or cultivation. Then the
owner wonders why it is his fruit is so
much inferior to that of his more
thrifty neighbor. No wonder that he
comes to the conclusion that "there is
only now and then one who is ca1cu-
lated to raise fruit anyhow" Plants,
like animals, need well-balanced ra-
ton and large per cent. of brains is
one of the principal ingredients. Cur
rants and gooseberries are no excep-
ton to this rule. These plants will bear
some fruit without care, though it will
be smaller in size, poorer in quality and
the yield less than when literally treat

BILE. Apple trees are very cheap. If
some old trees are desired to be kept,
prune, during mild weather, before
April 1. Don't trim trees during hard
frost. Prune to admit air and sunshine,
also to remove limbs that cross each
other or chafe. If the pruning knife is
used with discretion from the time the
tree is young, much better tree is Sc
acured. If the ground is poor, tree
scabby, or of weak growth, give good
dressing of barnyard manure, but if
the wood is vigorous, and soil fairly
rich, I would give each tree about one
peck acid phosphate or bone dust, and
one bushel unleached wood ashes, scat
tered evenly over and beyond the roots.

Ashes for Sandy Soil.

Sandy soils are always deficient in
potash. Even with this mineral they
have usually SO little vegetable matter
that the potash forms an insoluble com
pound by uniting with the sand.
Ashes, leached or unleached, are quite
beneficial to such soils. They contain
potash and phosphate, and also some
ammonia, taken from the air, which
makes the potash nitrate of potash,
and q very powerful fertilizer. Dakota
