HE WAS TOO PARTICULAR.

Landlady Turned Him
Down.

The popular and prosperous landlady OF
q fourishing boarding house, who some
times receives very unique letters about her
rooms, submits this, written by man, as
sample:
Dear Madam: / wish to discover some
thing about your house before making up
my mind to go into it. Will you kindly tell
me whether you have mostly old or mostly
young people in your house? Do they stay
up late at night to play cards and play on the
piano? Are they people what might be con-
sidered lively? How many hot baths are
taken on an average day? ] am very par.
ticular about my drinking water, and want
to know whether you filter it and boil it.
Which side of the table will you put my
chair on? The doctor insists that have as
much sun as possible"
These and similar questions too numerous
to be mentioned, says the Philadelphia Rec
ord, decided the landlady, and she wrote
back to the inquiring young man that no

FERTILlZING. ORCHARDS.
W. F. Massey Tells How This Work
Can Best Be Done-Fruit Trees
Need Enriching.

Farmers as a rule realize the i'm
portance OF fertilizers on their annual
crops, but when it comes to the or.
chard they imagine that an apple or
q peach tree or other fruit tree can
get all it needs from the natural soil.
And not only do this, but the orchard
is often expected to furnish hay or
pasture for stock. The result of such
treatment is seen all over the coun-
try in decrepit trees and poor crops
Of fruit, and the growers say that the
climate has changed. and they can
90 longer grow fruit as they formerly
did, when in fact soil exhaustion is
at the root of the whole trouble.
When one considers the great amount
of plant food that has been taken
from the soil to build up great apple
tree, and that crop of apples takes
from the soil mineral matters to
thrice the extent that q crop of wheat
of 25 bushels per acre will take, the
reason for the failure of the fruit
becomes apparent. In the early
growth of an orchard we want the
trees to develop fast, and hence we
ferti1ize the soil with complete fer
tilfzer and grow some truck crops
in it that need such feeding. But
after the tree has gotten into a bear
ing condition we can put the land in
grass and cut it several times during
the season, and let the cut grass rot
on the land, and can thus supply all
the nitrogen needed, especially II
clover is grown. Plenty Of white
clover among the grass, well supplied
with acid phosphate, and potash
mixed five parts of the first to one OF
the last, will supply in 400 pounds per
acre what the fruit needs for its per-
lection. Try this and see If the fruit
does not respond.
