Orchard Notes.

Up-to-Date Farming.
Fruit that is liable TO be injured by late
frosts should be planted on the north side
of a slope, where they will not start so
early in the spring sun.
In planting fruit trees spread the roots
out evenly on all sides, directing the
stronger ones to the west, as the prevailing
winds are from that point.
Two persons are needed to plant a tree
properly.
Strong growing fruit trees may be planted
in rows through the farm, and by and by
serve as living fence posts. To prevent
injury to crops they should be trimmed for
a small top.
One secret in raising fruit is to feed your
trees. Manure hauled on the archard next
winter will protect it from the drought
next summer. Every person in the
drought section this summer noticed how
the fruit stopped growing. good mulch
would overcome this.
Probably as good thing as you can do
against San Jose scale is TO spray your
trees in the fall with whale-oil soap solu-
tions or kerosene emulsion, as soon as they
In planting an orchard the standard,
large-growing, lons-living trees should have
thirty TO forty feet each way. AS 1t re-
quires several years for them to come
into bearing, the space between may be
utilized by planting quick-groWing, quick
bearing, short-lived varieties of fruit
trees which may be thinned out when the
others begin to crowd Good varieties
of apples to ill in are Ben Davis, Wealthy,
Yellow Transparent, etc, which bear pro-
fusely while young. When the space is
needed by the other trees take out these
filters.
Plant different varities of fruit trees
alternately TO insure better fertilization
of the blossoms.
Currants are profitable if the bushes
be trimmed out each season after bear
ing and the weeds and grass kept down
at all times. Wood ashes are beneficial.
Stable manure should be spread two or
three inches deep and left remain a
mulch.
Every farmer should have an orchard,
a berry patch, a vegetable and a flower
garden. These furnished, a family can
come pretty near living well and enjoy
ing life. Without them the expense for
canned fruits, groceries, etc, will be much
more.
Fruit-growing. no more than any other
branch Of farming, can be done suo-
cessfully in a haphazard, slovenly way.
Intelligence and a knowledge of trees
and plants are necessary; also a knowl-
edge of the different injurious insects,
their habits and remedies against them
a successful fruit grower must be up to
date in his business, energetic and pains
taking in the execution of it, and must
exercise good business Judgment in the
disposition of his crops.

Must n Farmer Work Hard:

J. w. Ingham, in Ohio Farmer.
How hard q farmer should or must work
depends on his farm, family and circum-
stances, and upon how high standard OF
living in the way of comfort, luxury ana
display he has fixed for himself. IL he Is
contented to live in a hut, and from hand
to mouth" or half starved, like the In
dams, without the comforts of civilization
he need not work very hard. If he wants
TO live better than the Indians, have good
house and barn, respectable furniture
horses and carriages, a good garden ana
orchard and, above all, educate MS chill
dren, he must work harder.
All the farmers of my acquaintance VINO
began DOOR and are now in good clrcuH-
stances were hard workers with both nead
and hands. The richest farmer In northern
PENNSYLVANIA, who commenced with noun
ing and owned half dozen farms Wnen ne
died. and had money lent was tremen-
dOus worker, and no doubt worked 100
hard, although he lived to be past seventy.
All the great lawyers, doctors autnors;
editors and preachers who have OBTAINED
wealth or fame in the world, were untlrlng
workers, and there is no doubt that many
of them, like Sir Walter Scott, worked 700
hard and shortened their lives thereby.
The hard thinkers were also hard workers.
DR. Franklin did not believe in lying IN
bed in the morning. Pillow deep, whlle
suggards sleep was t %nf Oh HiS fhe ms
Vention of labor-saving machines would
make il possible to lessen the hours or
labor to ten hours, but for his part, he had
ALWAYS been obliged to work fourteen or
fifteen.
In Great Britain the first power looms
and other labor-saving devices introduced
were smashed to pieces by mobs OF excited
workmen who feared their introduction
would rob them of the chance to labor and
would take the bread from the mouths OF
their children Mistaken souls 1t has
tl,o Of Ia hOr-SaN-in machines. and
not strikes, that has shortened their day S
labor two or three hours, and has greatly
increased comforts and luXuries.
No farmer should work so hard that
he cannot sleep well at night and
does not get rested and refreshed by
the next morning. Bodily labor, If not too
severe. insures good sleep. Stephen Girard
declared that he was obliged to tire himself
with bodily labor In order to obtain good
rest at night.
No doubt many farmers in easy circum-
stances work harder than they need to, and
some harder than they ought to, but the
danger of overwork is never so great as the
danger of underworld and the seduction of
the easy chair
IL is becoming fashionable for writers to
tell farmers they are working too hard and
that they should hold up, take more holi-
GAYS. attend more picnics and be happy. 1t
is advice which they think farmers will be
pleased TO hear. even If they do not act
ilDon il Farmers should not work so hard
that they lose their mental vigor and can
not read their newspaper even In the day
time without going TO sleep This is a safe
rule and IS perhaps about as definite a
one al can be made.

Shrubs i'm Winter.

w Z. Egan, in Country Life in America
for November, tells how shrubs or any out
door plant are to be protected in winter.
Low temperature" he says. docs not in

of soil-wet or dry, and the texture, light
or heavy-are important considerations. In
light. dry soils many plants winter readily
which would perish if the conditions were
reversed. On raised beds they usually do
better than in sunken ones. Newly planted
material requires a better protection than
established plants of the same species.

of animals developing the disease after re-

only Is miles distant from the city,
and still the mining people through
out the San Juan are familiar with
the workings and know something of
the production. From what may he
gathered about town. from the var-
Gus avenues of information, it is safe
to say that the daily production of the
mine has been from $500 to 5000 per
day. an output almost unprecedent-
ed by any property in the prospcc,
stage in the history of the state. The
Camp Bird at Ouray may have equal
led or excelled this property in the
beginning
Durango has become so accustom-
ed to disregarding the La Plata dis
trict that it can scarcely rub its eyes
to look upon anything which is of such
vast benefit to the city as the Neg
lected mine. The mine is now ship

ferent levels. new strike having
been made yesterday in the 20O-foot

The mill is not large enough to han
die the mill product. and it is likely
that more stamps and vanners will
soon be put in. 1t was learned some
time ago that it will be necessary to
put in cyanide plant to save the ex-
traordinary large values in the tall

is no element in the ore which will
initiate against the cyanide process
In the history of mining in the La
Plata district, which has been confin
ed to the tellurium OF high-grade
veins. the Neglected mine has most
uniformly continued it's production,
and this is in part due to the fact that
the present owners have carefully
studied their ore and kept up assay
ing right at the mine. Had they not
proceeded more practically than most
operators in this district have done.
the mine might have been shut down
some time ago and declared mo good,
but there is every evidence at hand
that the Neglected mine is now safe
ly one of the permanent gold produc-
ers of Colorado.
Other La Plata properties are being
taken hold of and other producers will
be added wherever practical opera
tors are in charge.
The success of the Neglected has
done much to induce investigation OF
other La Plata properties, many of
which are doubtless as good. If not
