Small Things About the Orchard.

thing to call your attention to what I

climatic reason. why tree should
have a long body. ! would give II a
short body. because by and by you
have got to prune that tree. and every
foot you raise that tree In the air you
have expended energy from the be.
ginning OF the pruning OF the tree TO
the end OF Its existence In going up
and down ladders; every foot means
that percentage OF extra labor for
every man that goes up and down that
ladder thousands and thousands of
times during the life OF that tree.
That means difference OF 10 per cent

cent difference on your expenses,
Those are little things. but those are
among the little things that coun,

reason is there Is not the same lever

mony. and at it's close kissed the bride

in SESSION SUNDAY.
House Continues the Legislative Day

House Continues the Legislative Day
Of Thursday.
Washington, March 1.-THE house of
Representatives held a four-hour ses-
sion today and put the District of Col
umbia appropriation bill thru its last
parliamentary stage In the face of the
democratic tilibuster. The previous
question on the conference report on
the Alaskan homestead bill was or
dered and the vote on its adoption
will be taken when the house recon-
venes at il o'clock today. That was
the net result of the Sunday session.
Altho it was Sunday by the calendar,
it was still Thursday. February 26,
according to parliamentary fiction.
The democrats put a block in the
Legislative wheel at every opportunity
and it required six roll calls to &C
compish what was done Sunday. Large
crowds watched the proceedings from
the galleries. When Speaker Hender-
son dropped the gavel at noon Mr..
Richardson, the minority leader was on
his feet. He announced that there was
evidently no quorum present and that
the house could not do business on
Sunday without a quorum. Thereupon
on motion of Mr.. Payne, the minority
Leader, a call of the house was or
dered. The doors were closed and the
sergeant at arms was instructed to
bring in absentees. AT the conclusion
of the call, PAL members had appeared,
more than a quorum and Mr. Nc
Cleary. of Minnesota, called up the
conference report on the District of
Columbia aDprODriat ton bill
Mr.. Underwood, of Alabama, at
tempted to interpose the point of or
der that the call had not been COM
pleted, but the speaker ruled that
quorum having appeared business could
proceed. The doors, which in the mean
time had been opened, however, were
again closed by the direction of the
speaker on Mr.. Underwood's point of
order that further proceedings under
this call had not been dispensed with
by the action of the house.
After a brief explanation of the re-
port, against the protests of various
democrats, who desired to be heard
it was adopted IA to so. There was
another roll call in ordering the pre-
vious question of the Alaska home
stead bill. which was presented by Mr.
Lacey, (rep.) of Iowa.
A half dozen points of order raised
by the democrats, We're ruled out and
the chair declined to entertain all APP
peais on the ground that they were dill
atory.

Why not equip every train-or. bet
