weak-Growinr Apnlc Trees.

S"N Apply
There is great difference in varie-
ties of apple trees as to their habit of
growth, and judgment is needed in
Forthcoming out the manure to be used
on each. The strong-growing varieties
like Northern Spy will need very little
stable manure until they begin to fail
from old age. But there are other
kinds of slow and feeble growth that
even while young can bear some slim
ulation with stable manure, especially
If 1t Is composted, and its deficiencies
OF potash and phosphate are supplied.
Coarse manure ought never to be ap-
piled to apple trees at any age. 1t is
the fermentation of manure in the soil
that is the prolific cause Of the fungus
growths that injure foliage and fruit
more than the manure can help the
tree. The only fertilizers that can be
always used with safety are the miner
ais potash and phosphate.

Ha. Two Postomce.,

Through some oversight of the Post
Office Department, Titonka, recently To-
Gated in Kossuth County on the line of
the Cedar Rapids, Garner and Northwest
ern Railway, has two regularly estab-
lished postofiices. One will no doubt be
discontinued, and the postmasters are
wondering which will be allowed to retain
office. Titonka was farm on Dec. 20,
1898. Now there are seventy buildings,
including three grain elevators and three
banks. The name of the town is of In
dian origin and means buffalo.

Is it not suggestive fact that there
have been no deaths from disease in
the navy? Coupled with this fact, the
list of deaths from disease in the army
makes the Indictment against Alger
unswerable.
The New York Journal prints the sta
tistics of deaths in the army and navy
during the war with Spain as follows:

Manchester Democrat. [volume] (Manchester, Iowa) 1875-1930, 1899-04-12

When 1t is remembered that the navy
was more actively engaged in the war
than was the army, the significance OF
these figures is all the more impressive
In the army over five thousand men
died of disease. AS the Journal states,
the greater portion of the troops were
In camp in this country and did not go
to Cuba. They were not exposed in n
treacherous tropical climate. There
was every reason why they should
have remained well. That they died
by the thousands is due solely to the ig-
norance of their officers about the ne
cessity of enforcing sanitary regula-
tons, the loathsomc food furnished
them, and the general neglect caused
by bad management in the War De-
partment.
If Alger wishes to make out u good
case before the American people he
will have to avoid statistics.
