SPRAYING Fruit Trees.

Growing fruit for profit is much
more difficult problem now than for
merly, for several reasons. First, be-
cause the fertility of our soil has de-
generated: the soil no longer possesses
the primal elements of fertility that
if did when the first orchards were
planted three or four generations ago.
The surface of the soil is exhausted and
requires artificial nourshment that
is extensive TO obtain. Secondly. there
are mvriads of insect pests that our
GRAND parents knew nothing or.
| Whether these insects are new cfea-
ion. or the result of impaired vitality
of the trees | know not. | Go know
that a perfectly healthy plant or AMI
NAL may thrive and do wcllSo'lrrollhd-
ed by adverse influences that would
prove fatal .toa puny, diseased plant
or animal.
A great many things exist that VIC
are not aware of until they make
their presence felt by destroying what
we arc TRYING to build up. But one
THING is certain, the orchardiSt can ne

it wholesome and of the right temper
allure. Where a separator is used on
the farm the milk can be used in it's
best condition. 1t Will be found prof
liable to feed milk until another
spring, when if they have been other
wise we'll cared for, they will be ready
to turn to pasture in good season.
If a part of the dairy commences to
give milk in the spring, then more
calves can be raised if desirable. In
this way two sets can be grown dur
ing the year, thus utilizing the milk
to better advantage.
Calves should have something be-
sides skim milk. This is the principal
feed of calves, but to get the best re-
suits there should be the addition of
IA little grain of some kind, such as
middlings, linsced meal and later
ground oats may be used. This will
be better than the milk alone.
A calf does not have to be very old
before it will eat little grain and
then it should have it every day of
the best kind.
Every farmer should if possible raise
the best hcifer calves for the use of
his own herd. If he does not have
enough of his own or they are not
such as he wants for this purpose,
then get some elsewhere from the
best stock for this use.
In this way the herd can be kept
r improving without a very great out
lay. Always remembering that the
. bull is "half of the herd" in building
it up, the greatest care should be eX
crcised in getting the animals from
the most approved dairy sources, moi
= forgetting to obtain little bette
one each time if possible SO that there

DENEY'S NEW HOME.
Located on One of Washington's
Most Desirable Streets.
With True Sailors Instinct the Adj
miral DeGnn ConIing and Laying
In Supplies Of All Kinds the
Very First Thing.

Admiral Dewey is delighted with the
new home which has been purchased
for him with the money subscribed
by the American people. 1t is his in
tention unless he should again be
called upon to command an American
feet TO pass the remainder of his days
in Washington.
The location of the house is exactly
what the admiral desired. In Rhode
Island avenue, it is in the very center
of social Washington. The Metropoli-
tan club and the Army and Navy club
two favorite resorts of the admiral
are only a short walk from his door,
and the navy department and the
white house are almost as near. just
around the corner is the Italian EN-
bassv, and on the opposite side OF
! Connecticut avenue are the Brltlsh
embassy and the Brazilian legation
The legation of Austria-Hungary is
few doors away, in Rhode Island ave
nue., and Secretary of War loot lives
square away, in Rhode Island ave
nue..
One of the special requests made D.
the admiral of the Dewey home com
mittce was that the house selected
should front the south. and this con
dition is fully met in the new home
The house is built of brick, wit
, brown stone trimmings. 1t is p fee
wide and 70 feet deep, with a rea
ward 40 feet deep, extending to an
T. lev. There is no stable, but the &C

1t is hard to tell at first glance to
what language this word belongs.
It's French and has been adopted
in Paris to describe the custom now
universal Of drinking tea at tve

There are many people who can
not be comfortable without their
FIVE o'clock tea. There are many
people who, after they take after
noon tea are not, even then, COM
Portable.
The reason for this is that they
do not buy the right sort OF tea.
They are not careful enough IN
regard to the quality and purity OF
the article which they procure.

and invigorating. Orloff, a Formosa

The day is ended. Fortunes have been
won and lost. Statesmen, soldiers, writer's.
Adventures have done the deeds of the
day; and night has fallen. The news has
been gathered by a marvellous system from
all continents and the far corners of the
earth. 1t has been sifted. arranged, Illus
trated, commented upon, printed and pub
lished, and is served hot from the press,
still palpitating, as 1t were, with the action
of the event recorded, interesting and star
Ting with the freshness and excitement of
the present. Readers over their soup learn
what has happened in the wide world
while they have been busy, each in his little
round Of duties, toiling in his shop. arguing
his case in court, earning his daily bread.
They sit at ease and read at leisure. The
evening is ahead of them. and needed rest
after the fatigues of the daylight hours will
cap it all.
Fourteen hours later, while he bolts his
breakfast with one eye on the clock and a
day, the morning paper is handed to the
citizen. If he has time to read the head
lines he is doing well In the night he has
leisure to think of the affairs of the human
race: in the morning he must think only of
his private affairs. Add that he can read
in the morning papers only what the Bulle-
tin informed him of at dinner the day be-
fore and you have sufficient explanat,o on
of the decay of the morning paper.
