The orchardists Of South Africa
have a way OF double-working apple
trees as a means Of preventing the
ravages Of woody aphis. 1t seems that
seeds Of Northern Spy apples or of
some other so-called aphis-proof va.
rlety are planted to secure roots.
Upon these are grated scions of the
same variety TO give a stem base. A
single selected bud is allowed to de-
velop and after it has grown one
year the desired variety is grated on
the stem produced by it. Some OF
our growers may be disposed to ex.
pertinent with this theory. 1t is to
be remembered that the Northern Spy
apple tree produced by our method
has in its roots an element Of weak.
ness from the standpoint Of the be-
lever in aphis-proof varieties and it
seems quite likely that we might prof
It by experimenting in this line.

ABSORBED IN HER WORK.
Woman Writer Had Most Unusual
Gift Of Concentration.

Gift Of Concentration.
Mrs. SomervIlle. the popular scien-
tifc writer, had a wonderful gift Of
concentration. She wrote her books
dealing with the phenomena of the
universe with the hustle of family life
In fun swing around her. Her hus-
band once made wager with a friend
that he would abuse her to her face
while she was writing. and that she
would remain unconscious OF it. Ac-
cordingly one night, as she was alb
sorbed in composition, he said to his
friend: Would you ever imagine that
my wife rouges? It's a fact. What's
more she wears wig and her teeth
are false" Her daughters were in
rOars Of laughter, but she went on
placidly writing At last her husband
said: MRS. Somerville" in a louder
tone, and paused. Then she looked
up and asked innocently. did you
speak to me, ear?"-London Globe.
