THE MOST PROFITABLE ORCHARD
FRUIT,

Perhaps no fruit grower is better known
throughout the country generally than j.
H. Hale, of Connecticut, who has extern
sive peach orchards in Georgia. Mr.. Hale
is an energetic Yankee, honest as the day
is long, yet shrewd and far-see.ng. His
success in growing peaches for market has
been very great and many a successful
grower today yves his start to Hale blaz-
ing the way. Yet this man declares that
it is his belief that had he set apple trees
in place of peach trees both in the south
and in his New England home he would
have made more money. He claims that
Notwithstanding the extraordinary large
peach crop of this year he will make no
profit because of excessive freight rates as
we'll as losses occas.oned by the inability
of the railroads to handl the crop prompt
ly. Had his crop been apples these losses
by delay would not have occurred. Today
the apple stands as king of fruits and the
grower who is in a suitable locality and
on proper soil will make no mistake in set
ting an orchard of apples. TIL mistake
too often made is the Inclination Of the
growers to let the trees care for them
selves. In this method there can be no
profit, but Il proper varieties are set, the
soil given the proper care and the trees
sprayed, pruned and generally cared for
there ought to be no difficulty in making
a fair and an increasing profit from the
epcopd wear IF hearing on.

BASKETS FOR APPLE PICKING.

There Is more in the matter Of the style
IF the baskets used in the picking of fruit
and especially of apples h one is in
clined TO think unless the matter is well
looked into. With the proper baskets the
fruit is picked in much less time, it is not
90 badly bruised and such baskets are
handled much easier han the ordinary
sorts. The round basket is quite popular
IN many apple districts particularly When
1t is SO arranged that the fruit is not in
iured; such baskets are padded inside this
being done by making a smaller bag with
a stiff rim, usually a piece of hoop is used,
which comes over the rim Of the basket
proper. The bale is a strong band of cloth
or leather fastened to the basket proper.

PROTECTING YOUNG TREES FROM

There are as many devices for protect
ing young trees from mice as there are ex-
perimenters. Most Of the plans are of lit
tie value, but some Of the most available
ones will work well, although there is
nothing yet known which is infallible. The
first thing to do is to see, just before the
ground freezes, that there is no grass or
other growth around the base of the tree
which VIII tempt vermin to make a winter
home in it. Then try one Of the following
plans, the first named being the more ex-
pensive. Buy narrow wire netting n
wrap a strip around each tree about a
foot high, holding It IN position with a
few strands Of wire. Or, use tarred paper
in the same manner, holding that in place
with strings. Or, get from some maker OF
berry baskets some wood veneer and wrap
it around the tree, holding 1t in place with
stout cords and removing in the early
spring after danger from mice is past.
All Of these plans are fairly effective.

NESTS FOR BRooDY HENS.

One of the best ways OF showing an
over-broody hen the error Of her ways Is
TO give her an uncomfortable nest. Place
II in a corner out Of the way, make 1t
small and take from 1t nearly all of the
nest material. Have it as light as possible
and If it can be so arranged, confne the
hen IN X. 1t must be cleaned, however,
in order 10 keep the hen in good shape.
With a little care so as to see that she is
fastened down 10 this nest and not al
lowed to get into the regular nests it will
be comparatively easy to break her up. on
the other hand, the nests for laying hens
should be quite roomy; not too large yet
large enough so that a hen of good size
can occupy it in comfort. The nesting ma
terial should be abundant and sweet, the
nest free from vermin of all kinds and
placed in a rather dark and secluded par
of the house. Give the laying hen every
incentive TO lay and place every possible
obstacle IN the way OF the habitual sitter
and you will have comparatively little
trouble

TEN ACRES ENOUGH.

Years ago a book was published with the
title 'Ten Acre Enough and by many
was thought to be more or less fancifui.
Today, with the exception that some It's
teachings are crude, hat book is close 10
the truth. The man owning a farm In good
condition can make more profit from such
a farm by directing his energies TO bring
ing his ten acres up to the greatest pos
sible producing point than he can from
five times the area treated in the ordinary
way. 1t is more than probable that in this
concentration on a few acres we may find
the solution for the help problem which is

Men of science have differed for a long
time concerning the exact relation OF the
fertilizer 10 the soil and to the crop but
the fact remains hat practical men at
work in the field know hat in order to
produce profitable crops the soil must nave
suitable plant foods applied and in a guam
tity beyond the needs of the growing crop
