Believes In Fall Pruning.

j. w. Kirkwood, who is in the valley
budding and grating fruit trees, is an
advocate of tall pruning of apple trees.
Mr.. Kirkwood believes,that by pruning
the apple trees after the fruit is gathered
in the fall it has tendency to toughen
the wood of the trees, thus making them
imperyious to the early frosts. II also
causes the leaves to drop, he says, which
lessons the chances of the trees suffer-
ing break downs when early wet SHOWS
come, accompanied by strong wind, as
was the case last fall.

favorable balance Is struck between
those sections which will have less

be considerably greater than last year,

Church Dedicated.

The beautiful new Presbyterian
Church at this place, was dedicated
last Sunday, with elaborate ceremony.
A large number of prominent clergy
men were in attendance. Services
were held morning, afternoon and
evening. The church was crowded at
all services and much interest mani
tested by our citizens, regardless of
creed. AT the evening session about
$500 was subscribed towards liquidat-
ing the debt.
The Presbyterians may we'll feel
proud oftheir efforts-in fact the whole
community should rejoice in the erec-
tion of so beautiful an edifce. Their
property is valued at $4,000.

A Criminal Act.

1t is surprising to us to learn that
Emporium is disgraced by possessing a
criminal whose heart and conscience
are so dead to the sense of feeling as to
attempt, without cause, to burn up
number of helpless, innocent pigeons,
as was the case Tuesday evening. At
about halfpast seven O'Clock, while
the Sunday School orchestra was prac-
ticing at J. A. Johnston's, some one, IA
fiend,) saturated the pigeon house
and barn with kerosene oil and set fire
to it, attempting to burn the pigeons
belonging to Lloyd Johnston. Of
course, had it not been discovered in
good season several barns and probably
dwelling houses would have been in
danger of destruction. A boy, or any
one for that matter, who will do such
things is on the way to the penitentiary
and ought to be there.

Should be Abated.

Some months ago the Independent
called attention to the fact that there
are in the borough some nuisances
which ought to be abated. We wish
to endorse the words of our contem-
porary in this matter. The condition
Fourth and Fifth streets, just west of
the old Episcopal Church, to mention
but one nuisance, is a disgrace to the
borough. This stencil which emanates
from this quarter has been insufferable
for number of years, but this sum-
mer it has been much worse than ever.
Those living within considerable
radius of this spot are the constant
victims of the nuisance, and are often
obliged to keep doors and windows
closed in order, if possible, to shut out
the smell. Why does not the Board of
Health do something to compel the
abatement of this nuisance? What is
a Board of Health for? 1t will not do
to shoulder all the responsibility upon
the Council because of its failure to
provide adequate sewerage. There
are other ways of killing a dog than
choking him with butter. If the best
thing cannot he done, then the Board
of Health should see that the next best
thing is done Surely something can
be done to compel the suppression of
this unnameable and widespread odor.
