Whats In a name?" the poet asks.

The question really seems too much
For ordinary man.
Yet TO the youth named "AlgernOn"
Girls speak in gentle tones.
And snlcker when they're introduced
To "Hezeklah Jones"
And patriotic citizens
Display their men tai skill.
And name the city "BluemOnt"
That was once called "SnlcksrviIle." 4"
And the belated wanderer
His soul 10 sorrow gives

CROWD THE TREES.
IL You Arc orchardfnG For the Profit
There IL In II.

| IL Ion Arc Orch9rdinE For the FRONT
There IL In II.
From what have seen and learned
am satisfied that apple trees of many
varieties may be brought into full bear
ing ut four years after being set into
the orchard. | have seen apple trees
the fourth year after planting out bear
one-half bushel OF apples per tree. l
once saw an orchard here in which 90
trees bore. the sighth season after be-
ing set into the orchard. 206 barrels OF
picked apples. These 80 trees were
composed Of Baldwin, Rhode Island
Greenirg and Roxbury Russet and
were set IS feet apart. l am not an
advocate of large apple trees with tops
spreading 30 to 35 feet and going up
into the air % to 80 feet, requiring Il 50
foot ladder to gather the fruit, but pre-
fer to set my trees IS feet apart, using
135 trees per acre, and, when the trees
are 4 years old and come into bearing,
stop all other cropping and let the trees
have all the ground to grow and ma
ture their fruit. / would, however,
fertilize and cultivate the orchard IS /
would for any crop, says Connecticut
man in Rural New Yorker.
BY setting the trees IS feet apart /
have 100 trees more to the acre to bear
from the time they are 4 ears old
and on This makes the orchard itself
pay a good profit for the land, and
there is less reason or desire to crop
the land with some other crop, as would
be done with only 80 trees to the acre.
These trees would bear for 10 years be-
fore crowding, when the top of every
other tree should be cut back TO as near
the body of the tree as could be done
and not leave the limbs too large, the
same as would be done If the tree were
to be top grated. A new top Of young,
thrifty growth would start out, which,
Of course, would need to be thinned
out properly, and in three years the
trees would be in full bearing again,
when the tops of those not cut back
may be served IN like manner. BY this
method Of treatment the top would be
kept young, the fruit be grown on
young and thrifty wood and the apples
easily picked and trees easily sprayed
over those low heads. When the trees
crowd again, let the tops be cut back
as before, or take out every other tree
entirely.
AS money from the orchard is the OBJ
ject, thus planting the trees 135 to the
acre and keeping the tops within a ra-
dius Of about 16 feet, more apples will
be taken from the orchard in 20 or %
years, and at less expense per tree. than
would be from the same ground with
trees set 50 trees TO the acre in 80 years,
for there are 100 more trees per acre to
bear fruit aud on thrifty, vigorous
Young trees.

sode which caused much laughter in

NJ r.. the corpulent man. hailed a

But his weight was too much for the
vehicle. which careened over and, as
the s:c' ewalk Is very narrow. crashed
into Il 7indow Of a printing office. NJ.
L. L.y meanwhile collapsed on the
ground. and "cabby" by a miracle
clung to his uncertain perch.
Then followed n stormy period The
printer came out and wanted TO have
the price OF his broken window. the fat
man tried to get the cabby to drive him
away. and cabby refused TO taGe any
such load On board
Finally all parties adjourned to the
police station. where the difficulty was
Strengthened out. and NJ Il. set to work

CORN BREEDING.
a Good Pedigree In Corn Means Al
Much @s In Live stock.

a Good Pedigree In Corn Means as
Much Gs In Live stock.
Corn can be bred the same as cattle,
It has been found that pedigree in corn
means rs much as or more than in live
stock. BY careful selection the corn
breeders are wedding out barren, poor
and inferior stalks. This will mean an
enormous saving of plant food which is
now used in the production Of useless
plants. a great Increase of yield and
additional profit. In selecting seed ears
it is necessary to be provided with 4
rule and measuring tapeline.
Look the ears over carefully for mix
ture, yellow grains in white corn and
white caps in yellow corn. Such grains
Should be picked out and discarded.
The white corn should have white cobs
and yellow corn red cobs. If this is
not true, discard the ears, as q mixed
cob is an evidence of a poorly bred ear
or n reversion.
The ears should be from seven and 4
half to eight inches in circumference,
measured 1T luC lllGule Ul llt car anu
10 to II inches in length, measured
from tip to butt. The corn should
shell about SS per cent corn to cob.
The most popular type of kernel is
the wedge shape, so there viii be little
lost space on the ear between the rows
of kernels.
The smooth kernel type is being dis
carded for a rougher kernel, which
means a deeper kernel. consequently a
greater per cent Of corn to cob.
The tip should be flied over with
kernels in straight, reguiar rows, and
the butt kernels should swell out about
the shank The fat butt with large
shank indicates n small per cent OF
corn to cob and hard hus.1ing variety.
The number of rows Of kernels
should be from IS to 24, it being gen
orally considered that IS is a prefer
able number, giving n stronger type of
kernel. The rows Of kernels should be
regular and straight with the cob.
