APPLE GROWING.
Some Particular Soils Which Give tn
Best Results.

Some Particular Soils Which Give the
Best Results.
The apple thrives On a great variety
Of soils. Indeed, it Is grown to some
extent on almost every kind Of arabic
soil in America. When planted on
large commercial areas with view of
profit, however, it becomes necessary
to select those particular soils which
give the best results
A somewhat gravelIy soil or even one
verging somewhat on stony has been
found by experience to be highly sat
isfaetory for apple growing, provided
only there Is an abundance of plant
food present, says Country Gentle
man. The gravel and small stones
doubtless assist in the drainage, and
this fact probably explains in part the
superiority of such soils. As a rule, we
may say that gravelly loan fairly rich
in plant food is the ideal apple soil.
The soil surveys now being made in
various parts of the country have in a
general way verified the commonly &C.
cepted opinion on this point Some OF
the soils well known as successful APP
pie producers have now been described
and mapped and given names. That
soil known as Porter's black loan,
which is found in extensive areas
along the eastern slopes Of the ALE
ghany mountains, is noted for its adap-
tation to the growing of apples. 1t is
upon this soil that the AlbemarIe Pip
pin of Virginia is grown. In western
New York the Miami stony loan may
be mentioned as a soil of well proved
adaptability for apples. This is widely
represented in Wayne county, known
as one of the best apple growing coun-
ties in America.
Sandy Loans.
IN other parts of the country sandy
loans or even silt loans are found tol
be successful in the production of APP
pies The Miami silt loan furnishes
the principal basis of large apple
growing industry in Clinton county,
H., while the Marion silt loan, SO
called, is the soil chiefly developed in
the famous Clay county GID apple dis
trict On the Delaware peninsula,
where the production of early apples
is coming to be an extensive and prof
liable industry, orchards are planted
chiefly on the Norfolk loan and Nor
folk silt loan.

Where it is obtainable there is moth
ing that surpasses a field of alfalfa as
ration for the growing pig. A great
er boon could hardly come to the ag-
ricultural interests of the country than
a type of alfalfa which could be gen

While the raising of the hog is a
profitable occupation from the financial
point of view and entirely commenda-
bic, it should never be carried to the
point where it results in neglect of
the boy. The boy has character, a
lifetime and an eternity before him.
while the best one can expect to do
with the hog is to get him to weigh
400 pounds by the time be is ten
months old and send him to the killing
pen.

uted to him in the current number OF
the Educational Review.
While upon the board of education
as body the responsibility OF these
outrages and untpward developments
must necessarily rest, we are tar from
believing that every member is equally
blameworthy. We do believe that the
hoard and the community have been VIC
timized by the unscrupulousness and
narrow prejudices of few members
We are glad to testify to the lofty sense
of public duty entertained by some OF
the members of the board of education
and are grateful for the efforts which
they have made to redeem the honor
and respectability of our school system
from the maelstrom of chicanery, IN
trigue and cheap politics.
As citizens who are interested IN the
maintenance of the colored school sys-
TEN on a high plane of efficiency, we
have thus taken occasion to point out
the dangers which threaten the system
and call upon all good citizens Of every
walk of life to aid in averting them.

WHAT PIMPS RECEIVE.

In the Police Court Tuesday morning
there was a white man on trial charg-
ed with selling whiskey on Sunday. The
circumstances were that an officer, on
compaint of two colored men, swore
out a warrant for the man who was
charged with having violated the whis-
key law. The two coiored men, who
no doubt had been used by someone
to make a case against the proprietor,
swore that they had purchased a certain
amount of whiskey from this white
man. When the defense put on his wit
nesses the District Attorney, Mr.. James
L. Pugh, stated to the court that he
abandoned the prosecution, and asked
that the two colored men be placed in
the dock and charged with perjury. Al
though the officer brought the case TO
court upon information, and testified, the
prosecuting attorney stated that he
would not doubt the officer, and would
not ask that he be arrested.
