the plant is established In its new
home.
Raspberries grow best when planted
In rich, well drained soil. The ground
should be deeply plowed and thorough.
ly pulverized before planting. A small
furrow may be run where row is to
be planted, CIR holes thrown out with
spade for each plant. Straight rows
make easy cultivating. They should
be about seven feet apart and the
plants half az far apart in the rows.
In the fall, the tip of the old vine
makes bud or sprout. This Is what
grows in the spring. When plants are
carried directly from one plantation to
another this sprout can be kept from
injury and an early and vigorous
growth secured. When the plants are
received frcm nurseries the sprout
will usually be found to have been
broken off in handling. New sprouts
will spring up and take its place, but
growth is retarded and the plant more
or less injured.
Like all trees and plants, raspber-
ries should have their roots exposed
g,3 little as possible in transplantlng.
The lower ends of the roots Should be
placed deep in the soil, but the sprout
should be near the surface AMI GOV.

Remember this and get the plant in

not disturb the roots after the ground
has settled.-O II. Barnhill, in New

Root Systems Of Forest Trees.

Hickory produces strong persist
ent tap root, and these species per-
sist on accaint of these tap roots seek
ing crevices in rocks and penetrating
the soil deeply. so that they can -four
ish in poor, rocky soils. On the 9TH
er hand, oaks do not have such per-
sistent tap root, but soon develop sec
ondary roots, and on this account
oaks in general require a more moist
soil than hickories.
The tap root of the beech develops
strongly for time, but in the course
of a year a broad system Of lateral
roots is developed, the tap root be-
ing checked ia III furtssr growth.
Similar root systems are found In the
maple and red ash, and these trees
require "a rich slsl f22;r tther best
lateral roots quite early, and in gen.
eral trees which develop strong lat
eral root systems in their early stages
are not adapted to growiI on sterile
soils. Attention is called to the fact
that in desert regions all the shrubby
plants develop long tap roots.-J. w.
Tourney, in American Cultivator.

Lima Beans.

The Lima beans are natives Of
warm countries, and therefore require
a longer season. The gardeners ef-
growth in every way possible. Elephants
the earliest varieties obtainable, in
light, warm. sandy soil, and gives as
siduous cultivation. Coarse, raw sum-
mer is not the best for Lima beans,
as 1t induces rank and late growth.
II such manure is to be used II should
be applied to the ground in the fall in
order that II may become thoroughly
incorporated with the soil. and be in
good con lition as available plant food
in the spring. Concentrated fertiliz.
ers, rich in potash and phosphoric
acid, are suitable, while those con-
tanning much nitrogen should be
avoided. Although desirable to give
the Limas the largest room possible,
II is useless to plant them in open
ground before settled weather. They
may terminate, but only to be checked
and retarded and therefore nothing
will be gained. AS a rule, they should
not be planted until week or 10 days
after it is safe to plant ordinary bush
garden beans. But they may be plant
cd in forcing-house or cold frame in
pots, or an inverted sods, or in boxes,
two weeks before 1t is suitable to
plant theme out of doors. 1t is not a
difficult matter to transplant. Yet, in
spite of all the gardener can do, 1t is
practically impossible to induce Lima
beans TO mature a full crop before
frost comes. A half crop is all that
can usually be counted on. At frost
time the green pods, containing beans
partially grown, may be picked, the
beans shelled out and dried, and used
to advantage.-Ccnnecticut Farmer.

| Gertrude Coghlan has secured a most excellent vehicle in "Allce of Old Vim cennes,' in which she will be seen at the Jefferson theatre next Friday mat inee and night. The play is dramatiza tion by Edward E. Rose from the late Maurice Thompson's romance of revolu- tionary days in Indiana. As Alice, Miss coghlan, it is said, has. achieved a triumph.
 Maurice Thompson's book has been very widely read. and the main incidents of the story have been prekerved in the drama. It's story of love and patriotism is one which appeals forcibly to everyone. Alice of Old Vincennes' like all healthy patroitic war dramas has it's periods of suspense. There is the loyal waving of the Stars and Stripes the success of the colonial spy in all lis. hazardous under takings and adventures the foiing of the villians-the officers with redcoats Just when tho triumph cf their schemes seems imminent. and the daring Of the heroine in many perilous situations. Alice as portrayed by Miss cognlan is a dash ing and sparkling heroine.
