 The next night when Chilson came home he found his friend smoking d long stogie with his feet oa the window sill.
 Did you last all day?" he asked.
 Up to three o'clock" replied Frank. q got along first-rate at the start. The chief cook seemed to be a good fellow and what he gave me was easy. He did remark that he supposed 1 was a little rusty, and told him he was dead right. He went out after the break fast was over and told me to clear up a little Some of the f1unllies put me next, and I did it pretty well. After awhile the cook came back and the dinner rush began. Well, I went up in the air There was more to it than I thought.
 Where's my lard?' he said pretty soon, looking into a kettle had worked hard to clean.
 "+I threw that out says. Weren't you through with it? You were fry ing potatoes in it all morning.
 "He caught up a cleaver, and l thought he was going to throw it at me, but some orders came in, and he just threw bitter look instead.
 T thought he was going to over look the matter, but you ought to have heard what he said when the rush was over.
 "I don't seem to satisfy you I says.
 No, you thick-ingered, lunk-head ed, lopsided fraud, you don't he says. You was never nearer the inside of a kitchen than the back doorstep watt ing for handout in your life
 "'Then why don't you fire me?' I says.
 "'You're fred he says, and now get out of here before I kick you out.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

Give young trees good protection and good cultivation.
 The safest plan is to plant a few fruit trees every year.
 When not mulched, the winter is q good time to manure all kinds of small fruits.
 In the winter when the ground is frozen hard is the best time to trans plant large trees.
 Feed the trees and fruit plants with an application of manure or wood ashes scattered evenly.
 The demand TOW is for quality rather than quantity iii allllinds of farE: products, especially fruits.
 Use wood ashes in the orchard or coal ashes on heavy clay land. Both are too valuable to be allowed to go to waste.
 In pruning, cut close to the body Of the tree, cut smoothly and then cover yarnish.
 It is claimed that, as a rule, varieties of strawberries that have the most wig orous and healthy foliage are the least productive.
 There are few if any kinds of fruit more easily raised or more highly prized than the different varieties of raCp- berries. By planting in rows sufficient ly far apart to cultivate they can be grown with very little trouble. - St. Louis Republic.

ORCHARD PRUNING.
Don't Go at It as Though You Were Cut
 ting Cord Wood.


 Don't get a crazy fit and go into vou1 orchard with an ax and cut and slash th, branches off and think you are pruning says H. E. Van Deman. Every stroke with tool on . tree is a stroke at it: life, unless very wisely made. There need be no elaborate or stylish method of pruning adopted. Common sense is good guide, but if person judges his knowledge of pruning by the amount of brush he makes, he is sadly lacking iI common sense, and should never be al. lowed to prune.
 All dead or sick branches should come off, all that cross or chafc each other should be relieved by the removal ol the one which can best be spared. Dc not cut great open spaces in the tree tops and so let in too much hot sun. shine and injure the limbs that have been used to being shaded. It is dan. Gerous to prune cherry trees at all they are rarely benefited by so doing. but are often injured. Train old or chGrd trees to have low, broad heads. which will shade the trunks, lessen the purchase of the winds, and make more convenient the gathering of the fruit.

ARIZONA WEATHER
Summary of Una Reports by ObSerV-
 CTS for inc Past Week.

There has been marked excess of temperature, during the past week. and a genral deficiency in precipitation throughout the territory. In Salt River valley the weather has been characterized by cloudy weather and warm days and nights.
 CROPS.
 Cloudy weather with warm days and nights have produced conditions fla VoraDle for the germination and rapid growth of all kinds of vegetation. The territory, by reason of it's varied top ography, presents at this time, agricul- ture in all it's stages, from the break ing of the ground for spring sowing and planting in the regions of high ele- vation, to the near and fast maturing of the same crops Il, the agricultural valleys in the lower sections. While the supply of water for irrigation pur- poses is ample in most sections, yet in ether and important agricultural To- calities, there is a marked deficiency in the supply, and there will be cores bonding decrease in the yield of crops. The severe frost of March 11th and 18th, while it was generally injurious to the almond crop, and was fatal to the fruit interests in the high noun tain regions, was not attended with such damaging results as was antici- pated, as the prospect fer fruits of all kinds is now most promising. The garden interests are in a stage of nor mai advancement and strawberries of fine quality have been in the market for several weeks.
 Alfalfa, the staple crop of the terri tory, is ready to cut in the lower cen tral and southern divisions, and grain is well headed out. On account of the droughty conditions which have gen. erally prevailed for a long time, the range interests are in a precarious con- dition, and stock is suffering for feed and water and unless rain is had in a very short time, the losses sustained will be considerable.
