Mr.. Hays Sense of Humor.

the congressional limited came in,
and among other passengers was Sec
rotary Hay. Rushing into the lunch
counter he seated himself next to me
and ordered sandwich and a cup OF
coffee On the other side of the sec
rotary was a typical American, who
had not the slightest idea that his
neighbor on the left was the 'Ameri-
can premier. Mr.. Hays face was a
study of amusement when he was sud-
denly, jabbed in the ribs by the elbow

dressed the secretary after this fash

Buffalo Tree Hopper.

The Buffalo tree hopper is light
green, three-cornered insect, about
one-third of an inch in length. What
appears to be the head, really the
thorax, is large and broad and termin
ates abruptly, having on either side a
short, sharp spine or thorn, somewhat
resembling the horn of buffalo, and
from this comes the common name Of
the insect. This insect feeds upon a
great variety of plants. 1t does its
chief injury while depositing its eggs.
in August. These are deposited in the
limbs of various trees, including the
apple. Clean culture Of orchards viii!
do much to keep down these insects.
Where many eggs are deposited on a
limb. the only remedy is to cut of
the limb and burn it, but this may be
done in the late fall or early spring.
at which times it is easier than at the
present time to discover the eggs.

Watering Trees in Summer.

1t generally does little good to at
tempt to water trees in summer
Keeping the ground pulverized will
generally accomplish more in supply.
ing moisture to the tree than will the
supplying of water by the hose. The
great trouble in watering with gar.
den hose is that enough water is not
given. The man will think he has
thrown on a great deal of water, but
1t will be found on investigation that
the ground has not been moistened to
a greater depth than one inch. Many
Of the light showers in summer wet
the ground only to depth of one
fourth or one-half of an inch. They
really do no good to the tree through
the roots. Their chief benefit con
sists in washing the dust off the
leaves. If a man is to use garden
hose on his trees, he will accomplish
more by washing off the foliage thar
by attempting to water the tree from
below. The failure in the latter case
is due to too small supply of water;
and it is extremely difficult to supply
enough water through the garden hose
to affect many trees. ....

Over cultivation Of Orchards.


There is such thing as cultivating
IN orchard too much. This is the case
With orchards that have never been
accustomed to being cultivated. 1t is
safest to begin cultivation in the
spring as soon as the buds begin to
open, and continue the cultivation UNI
ii the end of July. BY that time the
branches will have made their annual
growth, and the fruit buds will have
developed for the. fruit crop of the
following year. When that has been
accomplished growth stops, and the
Test of the season the tree spends in
hardening up the wood that has been
developed, and in filling the fruit buds
with material for the development in
The following spring. If cultivation
Is continued during the latter part of
summer and in the fall, there is dan.
ger that fall growth of wood will
De started, and also that many of the
.ruit buds will expand and blossoms
appear in the fall. Many good or
chard has been spoiled by over cult
Vation. One man in Illinois tells the
story that when he was young man,
his father being away, he thought to
surprise him by thoroughly cultivat.
ing an orchard of 400 plum trees. II
was early fall. The trees took on
new growth. When his father re.
turned, instead of being pleased he
said: "You have killed all these trees. "
His prophecy proved true. as most OF
the trees died during the following
winter.

Success With Orchards.

Orchards can be successfully growI
fr all parts of the. temperate
zone, but in many sections their
success depends on the care given
them. The man that plants out
an orchard and expects it to make
it's own way may succeed if condi
lions are exceptionally good, but there
are very many places where the win
tiers are too cold and the summers
are too dry to permit of the success
of an orchard without cultivation,
spraying, and pruning. We have seen
many uncultivated orchards which
have been planted by men who hoped
TO make fortunes out of them, but
they forgot to give them care. Such
orchards almost always prove TO be Q
financial loss.
