tically no pruning. Simply cut out
dead or crossed limbs.
Peach trees need much trimming.
Cut back at least one-half of the new
growth each season and thin out the
center of head.
Apples, pears, piums and ounces re-
quire moderate pruning each year.
Avoid cutting OF large limbs, II pos
slble. Cover all wounds with thick
paint.
Broad, low down trees are easier to
spray, thin, pick and trim. Cut out
those high tops!
Compact, low trees suffer less from
storms.
"Prune In June for fruitfulness, In
the spring for wood" This is wise

busy with other work in June: conse-
quently the larger proportion Of Or
chardists do their pruning in February
or March. But there Is great merit In

flowers development equals that Of the
Appleton. The form is the Bonnatfon
type, but the petals are more closely
folded. The bloom Is about the same
color when completely developed. The
petals are more pointed than those Of
the Bonnaffon, deeply cupped, highly
arched, beautifully incurred and ex-
ceedingly double In the center The
new flower growth is equal In every
respect to the parental except that 1t
seems shorter Jolnted. 1t shows no
tendency to revert, and Its keeping
qualities are unequaled, the original
flower having been kept four weeks.
The first flowers Of the new plant
were cut Nov. %, 1905, and shown on
that date before the chrysanthemum
committee In Boston, where 1t scored

Corn Running Out.

Farmers are often heard to say that
they have been growing the same corn
too long, that 1t Is running out" or
has run out" and that It is necessary
for them to get a change Of seed. This
is an erroneous idea demonstrated by
the fact that the very best strains OF
corn now in existence are those that
have been bred for the greatest lengths
OF time in certain sections of the coun-
try.-C r. Hartley.

900 MARINES FOR PANAMA
UNITED STATES TO KEEP PEACE
DURING ELECTION.

Liberals Who Are Promoting Riots and
Revolution VIII be Confronted with
Strong American F0rce-ZOne Police
VIII Take a Hand in ANY Disturb
nnces.
Washington, May 21.-More than 500
marines will confront liberal leaders on
the isthmus of Panama in case they at
tempt to promote riots and revolution
at the time of the election in Panama
on June 2O Although the canal zone Is
under the secretary of war, there Is no
Indication that the war department
will have any troops near the isthmus
at the time of he approaching cleo
tion and Secretary Taft must rely upon
the marine corps to protect the canal
zone.
Only 200 marines are on the isthmus
at present. More than 400 marines are
on the Columbia, which is on it's way
to Guantanamo and will be within
easy call in case the politics become
stormy in Panama. This large detach-
ment is in command of Major LeJeune.
The Marblehead, which is now sailing
southwark down the Mexican coast,
and is only a few days from the 18TH
mus, carries only a small detachment
of marines and cannot add much
strength to any land expedition which
may be necessary to quiet the political
situation which is so threatening.
The zone police have been strength
ened materially and is so well equipped
that it is in reality miniature army
and is ready for service at any time.
Under the leadership of the well train
ed marines it is believed the police
force will be able to quel any dis
turbances which may arise Troops can
be hastened to any scene of trouble in
the canal zone without delay on the
railroad. This insures the protection of
all American interest Secretary Root
and Secretary Taft have also made it
clear that they will take hand in
disturbances outside of the zone and if
the liberals begin any movement
against the present government of
Panama 1t will be with full knowledge
that the United States expects to inter-
vene in disturbances which will delay
he canal work or affect ii in any way.

ed late tonight that matters in dispute

sented.

phatically refused tonight to make
known, at present the terms Of the

BLISS APPEARS AS WITNESS.

to-day before the special grand jury
which was drawn at the instance Of
District Attorney Jerome to investigate

ma and Indian territory as it passed
the senate will be made rider on an

going on for some time, but was given

proposition was broached by one of the
close friends Of the president. But no
suggestion of this kind was made by
the president, so it was stated by the
senator. The president is anxious that
a statehood bill shall be passed in some
form, it is said, but has made no sug-
gestion as to the methods of securing
action.

Washington, May 21.-Notwithstand-
ing that the leader of the minority

as he could the orderly procedure Of

ber in which the country has special
interest, including the following:
To regulate enlistments and punish
ments in the United States revenue

OPPOSED 10 AN INCREASE
FIRE INSURANCE RATES IN THIS
STATE HIGH ENOUGH.

Resolution to This Eject Adopted at
Convention of the Connecticut Fire
Chiefs Club in New London--Presi-
dent HendrIcI Brings Up the Ques-
tion.
New London, May 21.-Important
business was transacted at the spring
meeting of the Connecticut Fire Chiefs
club held at the Mohican hotel in this
city to-day. The session began at 10
O'Clock and continued until o'clock,
when the members boarded a special
car for Ocean Beach to enjoy a shore
dinner
After the usual routine business had
been transacted President A. G. Hen
drick, Of New Haven, asked that the
meeting put itself on record as being
unalterably opposed to the needless in
crease of fire Insurance rates In Con-
necticut as a result Of the destruction
of San Francisco. President Hendrick
said that ne did not want to do all the
talking in favor Of passing such a reso-
luton, and his wishes were respected
for his rennarkes were the signal for a
lengthy discussion, in the midst Of
which the following resolution was
framed and unanimously adopted.
Whereas, be 1t resolved That the
Connecticut Fire Chiefs club considers
that 1t is unnecessary and very unpop-
ular for the insurance companies to
make an increase of rates, which are
already too high in the state Of Con-
|nectieut. We think that Connecticut is
better provided with fire protection
than ever before, and equal to any in
the Union to-day"
In response to President Hendrick s
invitation to speak upon the subject Of
the unpopularity of the proposed in
crease in insurance rates, the chiefs and
ex-ehiefs from all parts Of the state
spoke briefly, showing that in every
case where the cities and fire districts
had made increased appropriations for
better fire-fghting service the insur-
anee companies followed their action
with increased rates.

ANGLO-RUsSIAN AGREEMENT.
Germany Says Her interests in Bagdad
Railroad Must be Considered.

Berlin, May 21.--A semi-official
statement was issued to-day concerning
the agreement which possibly may be
arranged between Great Britain and
Russia regarding Persia, Tibet and At
ghanistan. 1t says that Germany does
not wish to stand in the way of Russia
or Great Britain, but, so far as the
Bagdad railway is concerned, German
interests must, beyond doubt, be con-
sidered. The Deutsche bank has been
granted concession for the construc-
tion of the Bagdad railway, which is
guaranteed by the German government,
and neither Russia nor Great Britain
would be able to dispose of the railway
without consulting the German COM
pany owning it.

FIGHT against SENATE
Amendments BEGINS
HOUSE COMMITTEE DISAGREES
ON ALL THE CHANGES
PROPOSED.

NO Disposition, However, to Criticise
the Amendment COnferring Jurisdic-
tion on the Courts to Review Orders
by the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion--Measure to be Sent to Confer
snce.
Washington, May 21.-The railroad
rate bill was considered for three hours
tonight by the house committee on in
terstate and foreign commerce, and the
decision reached to recommend, dis
agreement to all of the senate amend
ments and to send the measure to con-
ference. The committee will not ask
that instructions of any character be
given to the house conferees.
There was no disposition to critlcise
the amendment comforting jurisdiction
en- the courts to review orders made
by the interstate commerce commits
sion, for in the house committee as
well as in the senate many members
contended that the bill as 1t was passed
by the house gave that authority to
the courts. This amendment and others
which collectively are known as the AL
lison compromise undoubtedly will be
agreed to by the house conferees.
The amendment Which gave the house
committee the greatest concern to-
night was that making pipe lines COM
mon carriers, which the committee
thought inconsistent with the amend
ment prohibiting common carriers from
producing commodities carried by
them. Formal action was not had on
any of the amendments, and therefore
the house conferees likely will be left
free to exercise their best Judgment.
