However, II he lives in northern lati-

must have protective covering of some
sort, says Mark Haverhill, in Orange
Judd Farmer. Just before the ground
freezes, the old wood having been cut
out, go through the patch with potato
or other heavy tined fork, and loosen
the ground around the roots OF each
hill. carefully bend the bushes over till
they lie on the ground, weigh down and
cover with earth. Care should be taken
not to break any Of the canes in laying
them down.
Some people bend the bushes over
cover the ends with dirt to hold them
and then cover all with straw or corn
stalks from which all grain has been
removed. The great objection to straw
Is that the mice nest In the straw and
during the winter eat the green bark
from the canes. killing them. Not so
much trouble has been experienced with
cornstalks, but probably earth is the

AS soon as spring comes and the frost

be removed and the bushes Strengthened

How the Work II Carried On Among
the Hardy People Of Kentucky.
Tennessee and Virginia.

Few people know that there are about
1900, 900 mountaineers in the Alle-
ghenies and Cumberlands, and fewer
realize that hundreds of thousands Of
them are practically without education
or religion.
These are not degenerate people, but
are a brave, hardy, independent race
Of Scotch-Irish and Anglo-Saxon an
cestry. There are no finer people nat
accessible mountains they have simply
been passed by.
In 1897 a company of Christian men
and women organized mission to send
the Gospel to these long-neglected high
landers. This mission began in 1898
with one missionary, who went to a
county In the Cumberlands, of Ken
lucky, which did not have single
church in It of any kind.
In the past year they sent over 80
preachers and teachers to the noun
tains of Tennessee Kentucky, North
Carolina and Virginia. These mission
aries have made over 1000 visits to the
hohSo VI thO pun, hclu S,ISo puuliC
services, taught 129 Sababth schools,
with 3,271 pupils; 81 day schools, with
775 pupils; had over 500 confessions of
faith, and given away thousands of BIZ
bles, books, tracts, ETC., to the poor,
besides some 25 boxes and barrels of
clothing.
/ The society has built and opened the
Log college, in the Kentucky Cumber-
lands, 25 miles from any railroad, and
its enrolment was 147 students for the
first session. II is building another col
lege in the Great Smoky mountains of
Tennessee and North Carolina, II pub
fishes monthly paper for the highland
/ ers and their friends.
! During the last year It received over
$4,000 from people in all churches, and
almost in all countries, and never took
up collection from any church. It
closed the year without owing a dollar
having paid every missionary at the end
of every month.
