CULTIVATING THE ORCHARD

There is no longer any question as
to whether the orchard should be
cultivated. Experiences everywhere
shows that cultivated orchards live
longer, bear better fruit and are more
profitable than uncultivated orchards,
saws a bulletin of the Kansas expert
ment station. Many of the expert
ment stations of the best fruit pro-
ducing states have tried uncultivated
orchards beside those that were Guilt
waited and have collected opinions of
the most observant fruit growers Of
their sections, and the considerate
verdict in almost every case is that
cultivation is necessary for healthy
trees and first class fruit. The princi-
pal orchardists Of the state have eX-
pressed themselves on orchard culti-
Walton. Out of 272 reports made to
the secretary Of the state horticulture
alsociety, $50 advocate thorough cult
walton till bearing time, and $50 urge
continuous cultivation as long as it is
possible to enter between the rows
with horse and implement. Most of
those advocating cultivation till bear
ing time only live in the lower Kan
sas river district, where the soil IS
very rich, deep and moist, and will
produce fine crops of clover. The
general practice in this district is to
cultivate we'll till the trees are in full
bearing and then seed to clover.
West of Manhattan clover does not
succeed. Even if it should succeed it
would not be profitable to SOW it
from the fact that all the moisture
that falls in this region is required by
the fruit trees, and any crop whatso- :
ever, simply robs them of the moisture
they should have. For this region,
then, clean and steady cultivation
ought to be the rule for at least that
part of the year including the dry
season.
However, bare soil soon loses it's
humus and becomes infertile. This
must be prevented. Here is one way
of preventing it. Plow the orchard
in the spring, cultivate both ways and
keep all weeds down till September
first, at which time the soil will be in
fine condition for seed bed. Sow
rye at the rate Of two bushels per acre.
This will cover the ground we'll before
winter, and therefore protect the
ground from blowing or hard freezing
during the winter. Let the rye stand
till knee high in the spring, then turn
under and proceed with clean Guilt
Walton through the summer.

"SELF CULTURE" CHANGES TITLE

With the July issue the publishers pro.
pose to change the title of the SELF
CULTURE MAGAZINE to the MODERN
CULTURE MAGAZINE. 1t is done with
some reluctance, since in making the
alteration an old and now familiar desig-
nation is parted with, under which for five
years the Magazine has not only prospered
in a remarkable degree, but has had the
most agreeable relations with its myriad
friendly, courteous, and most appreciative
readers. Why, then, it may be asked, is
The change made? Partly from miscon-
ception, in many sections of the United
States where the periodical is making
uew friends, of the aims and character of
the Magazine, -sorne installing the pub.
iication for one devoted to physical cult
IRE; and partly from the broadening of
the scope of the publication, which in its
inception was designed to address those
chiefly who sought to educate themselves
by self-efort. Having, with the passing
successful years, developed and expanded
from this early and tentative stage, the
moment has nov hecr thought prop;tious
for making the change in the title.
The substitution of the new name for
the old will, without parting entirely
from the former GeSi~ nate title, mark the
advance to All era dis.inctively character
lied as one enriched by "modern culture"

A $40 suit looks better in window
than $40 suit does on your back.
Make your business talks as short
as your prayers and you will be the
winner.
The fear that people will find them
out serves most men better than a
conscience.
This world will never be satisfactory
to cross old people until children re-

a FAKTR'S CLEVER SCHEME.

81 never hear that expression got

an incident that occurred a mum Der of
years ago in town out in Kansas. 1
was spending a few days in the place
looking after cattle deal, and early
put in an appearance on the court
house square. He was in fine two
horse rig and had partner with
banjo, who soon drew a big crowd.
The the fakir proceeded to hawk a
cure all liniment at 81 a bottle.
''The price was steep and the stuff
went slowly, and l no ticed that at
each sale he wrapped up the bottle in
a sheet of white paper, upon which he
ostentatiously penciled a large cross.
When four or five were disposed of he
called on the purchasers to bring up
their wrappers and handed over a
crisp dollar bill in exchange for each.
L am doing this simply to introduce
shouted; who's the next lucky man
to take bottle in a marked wrapper?'
"At that the sale picked up and
W hen he had repeated the little COM
edy Of selling the nostrum and re-
deeming the wrappers couple more
times, the stuff was going like hot
cakes. Men fairly fell over each
other to get to the buggy, and every
now and then the fakir would bawl
out, 'Hain't got time to stop just now,
gentlemen, but be sure to preserve
your Wrappers
''When he had sold perhaps 400 bot
ties, and the crowd was about cleaned
out, he stopped suddenly and held up
his hand for attention. Now, gentle
men, he said, producing a ball of mar
row pink tape, 4 want all of you who
have marked wrapper to take hold

The crowd obeyed with rush, and
presently 400 were strung out along
the curb, holding to the tape and
wonde ring what was going to happen
next.

street, paying out the tape as he
went. Hold to the magic ribbon!' he
yelled. ID ont let go of the mystic

and W hen he paid out the last of it he
whipped up his team and vanished in

There is more catarrh in this section of the
country than all other di eases put together,
and until the last few years supposed to
be incurable. For great many years doc
tors pronounced it local disease and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment pro-
nounced it incurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and
therefore requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by f. j.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only con-
stitutional cure on the market. 1t is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to tea
spoonful. 1t acts directly the blood and

It is somewhat the fashion, nova
days, to sheer at patience as if it were
a very tame virtue-a poor substitute
of weak natures for the force they do
not possess. Determination, energy,
''push,' are the watchwords, and if to
some of our impetuous young people
one speaks of patience, the answer is
very likely to be, in substance if not
in words, ooh, we want something
stronger than that! Anybody can be
patient; that doesd't amount to any
thing"
But it amounts to everything. The
work of the world to day is being done
not by the brilliant dashes of those
who are in haste, but by the steady
persistence of patient toilers. The
realms of science, Of nature, of art,
are opening their gates and yielding
up their treasures, not to wild charge
and sortle, but to the slow siege Of
those who have patience to work and
to wait. Patience is power-it is
quietness, courage, and self control;
while Impotence is weakness always.

'Triumphs and Wonders of the
Nineteenth Century:' A volume of
original, entertaining and instructive
historic and descriptive writings,
showing the many and marvellous
achievements which distinguish an
hundred years Of material, intellectual,
social and moral progress, by James
P. Boyd, A. NJ, l.. B., asslste by
corps of thirtyt two eminent and
specially qualified authors. Magnifi-
Gently illustrated. A. j. Holman &

This grandly imposing volume is
practically exhaustive Of the many
subjects which type the century's
and execution it readily ranks as a
triumph and wonder in the art of pub
lication. 1t is book all the world
is waiting for at the century's sunset
one which can have no peer or com
petitor in newness and excellence of
plan, in v1gor, originality and diver
sity of style, in wide scope and lofty
purpose, in variety and extent of
contents, and in the great number,
beauty and aptness of it's embellish :
ments. No less than thirty five diff
ferent subjects have been chosen to
exemplify the century's wonderful
prOSreSSlOnS, anu 10 mlrror us uH
parallel activities. Among the men
of national reputation who have
written on leading topics we would
mention Gen. Joseph Wheeler, who
furnishes the chapter on "Wars of the
Century," Rear Admiral Melville of
Arctic fame, now one of the leading
spirits in building our new navy, who
writes on "The Century's Naval
Progress" Specialists and men of
corresponding rank relatively, write
on the subjects shown in the list of
contents. 1t is book for the old and
the young, for the professional as we'll
as the business man-in fact for every
person who wishes to get summary
of the century's progress from the
vantage ground of its closing year.
The work contains 700 pages, not
counting some Of the fullpage
pictures. 1t is gotten up in very at
tractive style.

Morning News Office, June 4.-The local
exchanges were closed to-day in observ-
ance of the holiday. There was little of
interest to note in the minor markets,
most of which were steady and in the
main unchanged. The warm weather
makes the handling of perishable stuff
risky and commission men TRY con-
signments to retailers as fast as possible
after they are received.
Advices from the trading centers show
ed that the cotton market was very
steady, and that prices gained from Sd10
points on Saturdays closing. Unfavor-
able reports from the crop districts had
the effect of turning considerable ele-
ment of the trade 10 the bull side, and
the buying which followed this impaired
strength which resulted in advances.
Heavy rains were reported in the Missis-
sippi valley, which gave the bearish ele-
ment reason to stop and ponder. To-
ward the close the market was dull and
inactive.

time, the improvement of to-day is large

the statistical position is the strongest,
and the one which is now expected TO
