FRulr TREES FOR FENCE LINES.

There are many farmers who say they
would set out fruit trees If it were not
that they occupied ground which it was
felt must be devote to other crops. 1t
is too bad that so many farmers consider
an orchard as somewhat of Q luxury and
begrudge the ground space the trees oc-
cupy. For such men here is a plan which
has been worked with success and which
will not take up any of the ground needed
for regular crops, Set trees along the
fence lines both between the farm and the
road and between fields except where
stock is pastured. Set the trees close TO
the fences so that in time the fences may
be removed. Take good care in setting
the trees and the fertilizing given the field
for the regular crops and the cultivation
will be near enough to the trees so they
will get the benefit of them. Beyond this
the trees will need no care except spray
ing, pruning and the general care a tree
requires under any conditions. By this
plan the trees will be out Of the way, not
interfering with regular crops, require no
cultivation or fert!lizing beyond that given
the field and, in a few years, will be a
source of profit.

A well-peserred tribute.

The awarding of the Grand Prize to
the Winchester Repeating Arms Co,
New Haven, Conn, at the st. Louis Ex-
position, eonfers upon this company the
highest mark Of distinction attained by
any manufacturer Of guns or ammunition
In the world. Although a great number
Of medals were given to this class Of
manufacturers, the only award of a
Grand Prize was TO the Winchester Re-
peating Arms Co; and given as it was in
competition with the leading %nanufac-
turers of all countries, it ~testifies in a
most decided way to the superiority of
Winchester rifles, shotguns and amniuni-
ton over all other makes. The success
attained by the Winchester Repeating
Arms Co. at this exposition is simply in
line with the honors received in the past.
At the Paris Exposition, Winchester
arms and ammunition received the Grand
Prix; and wherever they have been ex-
hibited they have always been given the
highest possible prizes. This latest recog-
milton of superiority is the natural result
of thirty years of careful and successful
endeavor in maintaining the high quality
of Winchester rifles. shotguns and ammu-
milton. 4
