THE APPLE ORCHARD.

"A well-kpown fruit grower gives the
following advice in regard to planting
and cultiyatlng apple trees:
I'm choosing a site for an apple or
chard l prefer hillside facing the
north. / set the trees two rods apart
each way. 1t is best to mix the varle-
ties; that is, one row of Ben Davis,
then one of Jannet, then Jonathan, ETC.
l believe in summer, fall and winter
varieties.
II plow a strip four feet wide and
six inches deep the full length of the
orchard In this strip plant the trees
little deeper than they grew in the
nursery From two to three feet
around each tree cultivate with a
hoe, and this is all the cultivation l
ever do in an apple orchard.
II SOW The orchard, If in stubble, in
clover, and for the first seven years 1t
is cut and placed around each tree, ex-
cept the small space around each tree
which always keep cultivated. This
cultiva ton is necessary to destroy in
sects and miceAand allow the rain TO
enter the ground and not run off,. The
clover is used for mulching. and as an
aid TO this use as much straw as posi-

ABOUT HOES.

The winter season Is good time for
looking over the tools OF the farm and
seeing If they are in proper condition.
Although the horse hoe has superseded
the hand hoe very largely in the field,
yet it will never go out of use, and in
the garden 1t is indispensable, so much
so in fact that the person who tills a
garden needs several hoes of different
sizes and shapes. II there are any old
hoes about the buildings that are ap-
parently worn ont, better take them to
the workshop, cut their ragged edges.
trim them to true and even shape,
when they'become the bandiest imple-
ments that you ever saw, almost. For
working among snail plants one of
these cut over hoes can be used TO the
greatest advantage. Almost any shape
that partly worn hoe can be cut into
will be valuable. A shaped hoe is
admirable for many kinds Of work, so
also is one with the lower or cutting
edge the longest, the top being cut
narrow. The edges Of these hoes
should be kept sharp at all times.
Take n file to the field and file the
edges whenever they need IT.. 1t nl-
ways pays to keep a hoe sharp, no mat
ter what Kind 1t is. Yes. and don't for
get to keep 1t bright, too. Whenever
you hang 1t up just rub it over with n
little grease.-F. II. Dow, in The Eplt-

BELT BUCKLES AND HATS.

BELT BUCKLES AND HATS.
Flowers run riot over the hats this
summer. -
There is unlimited variety to the hats
for afternoon wear. They are all
shapes and sizes, and are so entirely
different in their effect that the smart
women are having one made Of almost
every kind.
Ribbons were never so much used
as now. They are worn in bows, dat
and large small and full and many
steamers are seen on the summer
headgear
There is an exquisite harmony in the
shades of violet and, red combined in
n new summer hat fashioned Of velvet
straw.
There was never so much novelty in
belt buckles and belt as to-day. Many
' Of them are dainty and delicate In con-
sstruction, and they all demand a good
IL price. Those OF silver set with
stones are most regular, and the gold
ones, for those who can afford them.

peat the process with the back of the
head. Then the heal will be thorough

We are not willing to believe that

Assembly in session at Raleigh, will
take a step toward cutting off the
educational prospects of the negroes.
We owe much to these people. Their
value to the State is not to be COM
puted by the figure they cut on the
tax books. They are our labor. They
dig out OF the soil large part OF the
wealth which we enjoy, and surely
they are entitled to q part of that
which they make. II is not right to
shut the door of opportunity in their
faces. AS a race they are not capable
OF high intellectual development. but.
child for child, they should have equal
chance with the other OF our popula
ton, and we do not understand how
q person who would consign them to
mental oblivion can sleep well at
night. The negro race is full of frail-

MccUE HANGED.

J. Samuel McCue, the wife murder
er, was hung at Charlottesville, Va,
Friday morning, despite all efforts
made to save him. 1t was a triumph
of Virginia justice when this man met
his deserts ut the end Of rope ad-
iusted about his neck by the officers
OF the law. Well connected, promi-
nent in the social and business life OF
his town, successful lawyer, possess
ed of means and influence, five times
member OF the city council and three
times mayor of Charlottesville, he
was nevertheless a murderer, guilty
Of the atrocious crime of brutally and
cruelty shooting and killing his own
wife, helpless and defenceless as she
was-she whom lie had vowed at the
marriage altar to love, honor and
protect-the mother OF his own chill
dren whom by his fiendish act he more
than orphaned--tiiis man richly de-
served his fate and it was Il triumph
Of Virginia iustise, we repeat, that he
was convicted and hung.
Before going to the scaffold McCue
made q confession to his spiritual
advisers, requesting that they make
it public in the form of signed state
ment after he was hung. The confess
sion was brief, merely admitting his
guilt and the Justice OF the sentence,
without any details whatsoever rs to
the commission of the crime and the
cause. This was signed by Rev. Geo.
l.. Petrie, pastor of the Presbyterian
church, Rev. Harry B. Lee, rector of
the Episcopal church, and Rev. John
b. Turpin, pastor of the First Bap-
fist church, and reads as follows:
-. Samuel McCue this morning
stated in our presence and re-
quested us to make public that he
did not wish to leave this world
with suspicion resting on any hui
man being other than himself.
That he alone was responsiblef for
the deed, impelled to it by an evil
power beyond his control, and
that he recognized his sentence as
just"

ADOPT DANISH METHOD.

ATHENS, Wis, Feb. 21.-An advance
ment association recently organized
here is applying an innovation in dairy
ing in the United States, modelled after
a system now in vogue in Denmark.
The Athens association will hire an
experienced dairyman to make monthly
test OF the milk of the herds of twenty.
six farmers within radius of five miles
OF Athens. Each succeeding year the
territory embraced will be enlarged
The tester will carry with him a hand
Babcock test and scales and will spend
a full day with each farmer making
tests of the morning and evening milch-
ings of each COW. The result of each
months test will be published, so that
poor cows can be discarded
The plan, as adopted by the associa-
ton, provides that the salary of the
tester and all incidental expenses be
paid by the association, so that no ex-
pense whatever will attach the farmers
who receive the service. They, how
ever, will be asked to board the tester
when he visits them and provide for
transportation to the next farmer.
In Denmark the system is supported
by the farmers themselves, and it is ex-
pected that in few years, when TIE
other farmers realize the benefits de-
rived from the plan, they will support
the tester themselves.-Mi Milwaukee SEN
