One Of the serious drawbacks con-
nected with planting a variety Of apple
trees is found in the disadvantage en-
countered when one comes to market

One tree of Whitney No. 20 will
usually furnish all the apples of this

days and furnish good pickle stock, and
this is about all that can be said in
their favor.

One year with another a fellow will
do better to stack his grain unless he

Many long contested disputes would
be averted by having the boundary
lines on the farm firmly established
and maintained While it may cost
something at first, one has the surety
of knowing where his land begins and
the other fellows leaves off. If you
can't afford to be generous don't plant
your blackberries next the fence, as
they're just sure to be too neighborly
and possibly make lifelong enemies.

The farming in the southern states
is left mostly in the hands of the ne
gro. The tendency of the times seems
to be for the white man, woman and
child to prefer employment in the fac
tory rather than work in the broiling
sun in the field, while with the negro
it is just the opposite the indoor con-
inement and rigid discipline being de-
cidedly distasteful after the careless,
easy going life on the farm.

When one has a cool and dry place
for storing potatoes we believe it is
better to dig them when they are fully
ripe than to allow them to lie in the
ground until late October, as is Gus
tomary in good many localities. And
this is particularly true if the early
fan is wet, as the tendency to rot is
greater if they are left in the ground
than when they are properly stored.

1t is estimated that the best part Of
the rice kernel is lost through the re-
filming process to which the rice is sub
jected. Most Of the nutriment and
much Of the best favor come from
the rough portion lying next to the
husk, and this is lost when the grain
is rubbed and polished for American
use. Foreigners, who are accustomed
to eating rice a great deal, are very
contemptuous Of the American article
and refuse to touch it.

Ten to one if the owner of a place
looks after his rented property the
tenant will likewise have more respect
for it, If the fences are dilapidated,
the walks broken, the window glass
cracked, the plastering loose and ready
to fall, the wall paper dingy and dis
colored when the tenant goes in, you
can depend upon it that it will be con-
siderably worse when he leaves. Half
the time the property is all run down
before any repairs are made at all, and
then it costs a small fortune to make
it fit to live in again. Then, again,
don't jump at the first man that comes
along who wants to rent the place.
There are families and families. Some
Will keep a place up because it is the
home and they take pride Id it, while
on the other hand there are people who
think nothing is worth taking care OF
because it belongs to some one else.
Avoid the latter class.

In compliance with the terms of the
lately enacted meat inspection law the
South Omaha packing plants have or
dered 1000 white duck suits for their
male employees and 5000 dresses for
the women. These are to be washed at
the companies expense, a clean suit
being furnished each day. 1t will thus
be seen that an agitation which was
inaugurated primarily in the interest
of the consumer of meat products has
resulted in a vastly increased condi-
ton Of comfort ard cleanliness for
employees in the plants affected.
