FRUITS AND FLOWERS.

Rolling ground is the best for an or
chard.
Blighted leaves and branches on fruit
trees should be cut off and burned.
That tree does not bear well every
year is not an indication of disease.
Most effective pruning is done in the
early stages of the orchards growth.
One advantage in pruning during the
summer is that the wounds heal very
quickly.
Dead branches are often the means
Of conveying ecay to an otherwise
healthy trunk.
In pruning roses cutting back closely
produces, as a rule, fewer blossoms, but
of finer quality.
Never prune a tree unless there is
good reason why limb or branch
should be taken off.

Governor OdelI said the conference
had brought about harmony in place
of badly strained relations, which had
existed that Senator Platt is still the
leader of the party in the state, but
that he himself would hereafter take a
more acive part in its management;
that the restoration of cordial relations
had been brought about by concessions
on both sides; and that further details
Of the conference were not of interest
to persons but to the party"
In regard to the vote of this state

self as believing that it would be Civ
en- to President Roosevelt.
DO you care to make any formal
statement about the result of the con-
ference at Washington yesterday on

in that way" he replied. I'VE sim
ply had conference and arranged
matters in way satisfactory to both
sides. Senator Plat is still the lead
er of the party in this state. There
has never been any disposition to take
the leadership from him"
Governor Odell was then asked il
he would not assume the management
in the future, but did not answer di.
rectly, stating that he would work to
the best of his ability for the success
of the party in this state. To questions
whether he would assume charge here,
he replied that such matters were
things to be decided in the future.
Il do not care to say anything fur
ther about the conference" he conclud-
ed, except tha it resulted in har.
monizing matters which were in a bad.
Iy strained condition last week and
that the result was attained by conces.
sions on both sides. We are united
now for the success of the party ins this
state"
How about the vote of this state
