rule, "Prune when the knife is sharp"
When we come to form there is more
of certainty. Commercial apple and
pear orchards, for instance, are now
adays headed much lower than used to
be the case, three feet being a very
common height for starting the head.
In localities where windstorms are fire.
Quent the low headed trees are less
likely to be broken, they lose a smaller
portion of their fruit and are less sub
ject to sun scald, because the low head
shades the body of the tree somewhat.
The cost of harvesting the fruit is less
than that of gathering from tall trees,
as with low headed trees much Of the
crop can be gathered by the picker
standing on the ground, while with
high headed trees the major part Of
the work must be done from ladders,
which extends the time required to do
the picking and consequently increases
its cost.
Professor L. G. Corbett, whose horti-
cultural experience has been extensive
and varied, recently outlined a plan of
forming the head which is in accord
ance with the latest successful practice
and scientific theory. The diagrams il
lustrate its principal features so plain
ly as to need little comment. However,
the arrangement of the branches may
be noted.
First, the branches Of the whole
should be disposed at equal distances
around the main stem or axis of the
plant, and, second, they should be at
some distance from one another up
and down along the central axis of the
tree-that is, not in the same plane, but
from four to eight inches distance
apart. (See the first cut) With such an
arrangement of branches the tree when
old is less liable to injury from heavy
SHOWS or severe winds.
Professor Corbett emphasizes the de-
STABILITY of having the main structur-
al branches of a tree composed of from
three to five limbs of about equal size
rather than Of two limbs. A tree which
divides into two limbs which again
subdivide to form the main head is
much more likely to split than a tree
with several limbs disposed at differ
ent heights upon the main axis.
In order to preserve a symmetrical
form and to prevent the fruit being
borne at the extremity of long, slender
branches on apple and pear trees the
main body branches left at planting
time should not be more than eight

MRS. POWELL is WELL GUARDED.
Desire Not to be Seen of Woman Charged
With Murder, Is Granted Her.

Mrs. Powell, the alleged slayer of
Essie Albin, is hedged about with as
much secrecy as if she were a scion of
a royal family. Seldom is such con-
sideration shown for one who is
charged with such a cruel crime as
she. She does not seem to find Jail
life so mopotonous. Perhaps the rest
is grateful to her after her round of
drudgery as the wife of farmer, Her
cell has been made as homelike and
cheerful as possible. The walls, hav-
ing been lately whitewashed, are fresh
and clean. There is carpet on the
floor and with several belongings
from her own house, the cell is not
unlike home.
But Mrs. Powell is decidedly averse
to the public gaze. She refuses to be
seen and her counsel have imposed
strict orders upon the sheriff to adj
NIT no one to her cell. She has re-
quested that the blind door be closed
all the time and there is not even re-
mote possibility of a visitor getting
even a chance glance at her. Her
husband visits her only in the COM
pany of the sheriff. She says little to
the former and seldom anything about
her case. The most she has said in
that connection is that she has not
been treated right.
The woman spends most of her time
in sewing and has placed her ward
robe IN frst-class condition. If
jealousy instigated the crime of
which this woman is accused it was
over as uncouth a man as could be
imagined. Powell is big aud almost
incredibly awkward. He has huge
rough hands and his feet are encased
in immense boots, into the legs of
which his trousers are stuffed. He
has forid complexion and a stragg-
ling red moustache. He wears shabby
clothing, the most conspicuous of
which is a rather bright blue sweater.
Powell is not so averse to be inter
viewed as his wife. He seems willing
enough to talk of the crime and graph
ically tells of finding the dead girl,
even illustrating some of his move
ments at that time. Powell, who, by
the way, can neither read nor write,
declares that his wife had no cause
to be jealous. OF Essle Albin. "Essie
was Just like a member of the family, "
he says, land treated her the same
as would my own daughter.

to supply a company in New York
yearly that amount. This firm owns a

The Henlopen Hotel at Rehoboth
Thursday was leased for the coming
season by W. 9. Lodand, who, with
William NJ. Jefferson of the Hotel
Wilmington, Wilmington, were pro-
prietors of the Douglas House of that
resort, which was burned last week.
The Henlopen last season was run by
Burton and Rock. 1t has always been
one of the principal hotels of Reho-
both, and will now have the lead, as
the Douglas House has been burned
and as it is the only big hotel left.
Mr.. Lofand, who is a well-known
hotel man, will no doubt make a sue
cess of the hotel, as he will get much
of the trade which patronized the
Douglas House. He has been spend
ing some time in Lewes, but came to
Wilmington the first of the week and
has since been negotiating for the
Henlopen. The hotel is owned by
George w. Mccullough.

THOMAS HUNTING FOR LOST MONEY.
Believes II was Found by Honest Man But
Unable 10 Get up With Him.

Willard Thomas, a prominent citi-
zen of Pennington, has returned after
futile search which he lost nearly
two months ago, and which he be-
lieves was found by an honest man,
but the two cannot meet. On Janu-
airy q while in Wilmington Mr..
Thomas lost out of single pocket a
valuable paper, four twenty-dollar
bills, six one-dollar bills and a check
on a Baltimore bank for S.. In all he
lost $91 in cash, the valuable paper
and lost his railroad ticket, which was
No. 454 of the Delaware division of
the Pennsylvania railroad, and read
''from Wilmington to Pennington,
Del" After a vain search and much
lost time Mr.. Thomas had to borrow
money on which to come home. Mr..
Thomas would have given up all hope
of finding his lost treasure, but recent
ly when told of it to a Wilmington
man, he replied: ''Why. 1 read
where somebody had found that, read
it in some newspaper" A few days
later another friend made a similar
statement and Mr.. Thomas started out
to look up the advertisement, but all
to no avail.
