west side, with man and a loose
stake about four rods from each OF
these two line stakes. | wave with the

sighting stakes are all set in the foul
inner rows, each two inner stakes in
exact line with the two corresponding
outside ones.
The tree stakes are made as follows:
Saw old free splitting pine boards into
eight inch lengths and with a sharp
hatchet sharpen each stake with one
blow and then split 1t off with another
blow, as thin as 1t will split we'll Fol
nine acres you will want 720 of these,
two for each tree. Now take a basket
full of these setting stakes and take foi
a sighting pole straight rake handle,

Let the setting board be about six
feet long and six inches wide. Bore an

remove the board and dig the hole fol

When you are ready TO set the trees
place the end holes of the setting

apple tree up snug to the toe OF the
horseshoe, and the base of the tree

The trees should be set leaning slight

August are far better for this work

the I'LL EFFECTS or SPRING WEATHER

ANY one can escape entirely tne III
effects of spring weather. and instead
of dragging wearily through weeks ol
that tired feeling" and perhaps ac-
Quiring a fatal disease, can enjoy as
good health as at any other time Of
the year.
When the first languid feelings make
their appearance in the early spring
get a bottle of "Bloodine," and after
you have tried it you will say tAat
"Bloodine' is positively the best spFlng
medicine you have ever tried.
A great many years OF extensive
use of this wonderful remedy as a
spring medicine have demonstrated
that there are no failures Read what
Mr.. Herbert NJ. Woodbury. of West

ways give satisfaction. For two weeks

THE DRAMA

Walter Sanford's company gave MY
Jack" to a well filled house last night
at the Orpheum. The piece was well
played throughout and the frequent
applause showed that the audience was
well pleased with it. 1t is a stirring
drama in four acts, in which there are
nine scenes, all of them full Of action.
The author did not allow himself to be
held down by any laws of probabilities,
and kept his dramatic decks clear for
action all the time The result is
play that cannot be said to have any
dull moments in it.
The parts were generally very well
sustained and the company showed
itself deserving of the large patronage
it is receiving. Walter Sanford was
the typical stage villain and almost
earned Kisses from the gallery" which
is all a william can ask for by way of
applause. William Desmond, Griffith
Wray, Bart w, Wallace and Frederick
Wilson carried their parts eXcellently
and Tommy Shearer had plenty of fun
with the character of Patrick Doolan"
Laura Wall, Ethelle Earle and Adelaide
Smith carried the ladies parts well.
This evening and tomorrow the COM
pany will present Sporting Life" an
other stirring drama which should at
tract large audiences.
"SpOrting Life" is the significant title
of a pretentious English melodrama to
be produced Friday and Saturday even
ings November 22-23 by the Sanford
Company at the Orpheum. The piece
| enjoyed a prosperous season of six
months at the Academy of Music, New
York City, and five months at McVick-
ers' Theatre, Chicago, and comes here
heralded as one of the most realistic
productions of melodrama ever given in
America. This claim would appear ia
be borne out by the description of the
scenery provided, there being no less
than ten distinct scenes, several OF
them of magnitude. A massive pro-
duction of the ancestral home of the
| Earl of Woodstock from the famous
painting THE Day of Reckoning" is
! regarded as a master piece of the scene
painters art. Then there is a view OF
the Ear's Court Exhibition grounds
showing the numerous booths, interior
of the National Sporting Club, London
the boxes and stall occupied by scores
OF patrons of the manly art, all In
evening dress; and lastly a splendid
view of the Epson Downs race course
on Derby Day. There are numerous

preparing this production the manage
ment found it necessary to call on the
services of several of the leading scenic
artists of New York City, and securing
the benefit of Messrs John and Louis
Young, Homer Emens and Ernest Al

scenery into four acts necessitates some
of the most rapid changes of scene

one of the features of the production.
There is no delay in the action of the
