effects Of the destruction of the SUR

Lastly, an inquiry as to whether

instance, the Ben Davis apple, many
years ago really good eating apple,

Mr.. Stringfellow gets nothing in
return for his advocacy of the New

of proving, as he is doing more and

methods are right, by results that
cannot be gainsaid. His method has

CAS- a Man Thinketh." "

We found an article on this subject
in the American Poultry Advocate.
1t was, Of course, intended originally
for poultry keepers, but the idea is
quite as applicable to any other busi-
ness.
Did you ever notice the fact, for I
am satisfied that it is fact, that con-
fidence in ones ability to perform an
act is one Of the great essentials to
it's successful performance?
For this very good reason alone
certain localities often become ia
nous for certain particular kinds Of
industries
One man who has mastered the de-
tails of growing or producing a GER
tain article, successfully, becomes an
object lesson to others in his locality.
They see that he successfully accom-
plishes it, and "seeing is believing" ."
They know that it can be done and so
have confidence to believe that by a
dopting his methods they can also
accomplish the same end, while if
they should have undertaken it with
out this confidence in their ability to
successfully accomplish it, they are
quite likely to become discouraged,
and by lack of faith in their ability,
neglect details which bring failure.
In other words, if they think and
know that they can do it, they can;
but if they think they are going to
fail, they will fail
I believe that there is great power
in Thought force" The II can, and
[ will power will prevail where a
lack of confidence, or belief in Our
ability to succeed, will cause us to
! fail
I have seen this principle demon
strated in the matter Of producing
winter eggs at a profit The success
of one man in neighborhood will
spread until the whole neighbOrhOOd
becomes famous for the production
of eggs, while the location is no bet
! ter or more advantageous in any way
than others in which the popular be-
| lief prevails that the feat is impos-
sible
This. explains why certain localities
| become famous for the production OF
certain crops, or manufactured ar
ticles, instances of which are SO nu-

yond doubt that it can be, and really
is being accomplished, and have inn

Then you can. Without this con-

it is true but the fact that it is gain
has merit. The editor of the Rural
New Yorker has tested it and is an
advocate Of the method. Now it is
as far north as Maine, that is we
find the Maine Farmer giving an ac-
count of the author and speaking
quite favorably of it. The account
may be new to some Of you, and we
trust will induce you to test the
merits of the method To do SO un-
derstandingly, you should have the
book, which is published by Farm
and Ranch Publishing Company,
Dallas, Texas, at one dollar. We
should consider it cheap at ten times
the price, to every fruit grower The
Farmer article is as follows:
The Farmer has had occasion be-
fore to call attention to the sod
grown theory of raising fruit adyo-
Gated and successfully practiced by
H. NJ Str1ngfel1ow Of Texas. Ameri-
H. NJ Str1ngfellow was born in the
town of Winchester, Va, January Fl,
1880. Graduated from William and
Mary College and after serving
through the war moved to Texas and
settled in Galveston. He studied
law, but unable to resist the attrac-
tions Of horticulture, went into the
fruit and vegetable business in Gal
weston county in 1866, being the first
in that section to plant pear as well
as other fruit trees and vegetables
for market, and demonstrated its "a
daptability for such purposes SO sue
cessfully as to earn the appellation of
"Father of the Gulf Coast Country"
He published the New Horticulture
in 1894, after advocating its principles
for ten years or more in various
journals throughout the country, and
in the interests of truth and progress
practically gave away one thousand
Europe and America The book has
been translated into the German,
Roumanian and Russian languages
and over 10000 copies have been sold.
Satisfied, after laying up enough to
live comfortably on, Mr.. Stringfel-
low has now retired from active
business and devotes himself to horti
cultural experiments and occasionally
writing for the press.
Nurserymen and fruit growers are
much interested in the practical
working out of his theory, that the
best fruit is obtained not by cultivat-
ing, pruning, and fertilizing, but by
allowing nature to do her work in
her own way Mr. Stringfellow is
diametrically opposed to the prevail
ing methods and says New Hortlcul-
ture is destined to revolutlonlze the
growing of fruit.
The application of the principles of
his New Horticulture may be sum-
married. as follows: Severely prune
roots and tops of trees at planting
time from nursery rows; planting in
crowbar holes instead Of post holes,
the closely pruned root stub being
pushed down into a small hole the
size of a crowbar; no cultivation
after trees begin to bear, letting the
trees grow in sOd no pruning for
peach trees, thus avoiding waste OF
vitality in growing useless wood;
pruning apple and pear trees only
during first two years; propagat1ng
only from the best bearing trees.
All this is directly opposite tO the
teachings of the experiment stations.
The old horticulture of today teach
es: The more roots the tree has
when transplanted, the better the
bigger the hole for planting the bet
ter; continual cultivation; annual

New Ruling on Homestead Right fol-
Minneapolis Teacher.

Superior, Wis, June 2S.--Miss Har
riet Field, a homesteader in this coun
ty, who four years ago took up a claim
with jack pine upon it, has just won 6
decision from the interior department
at Washington which establishes q
new precedent--that school teachers
may be homesteaders. Miss Field
teaches in Minneapolis, and a contest
filed on her claim was made principal
ly on the ground that a school teacher
could not be on a claim long enough &c
be a bona fde homesteader. The de
partment holds that actual presence is
not so necessary in such cases as evi
dence of intention and following of the
spirit Of the law. Miss Fields attor

ties or a feeling of weight and f~ullnessp
Do not make the mistake of thinking
that these are diseases in themselves
and be satisfied with temporary relief.
This is the way the nerves give warn
ing that they are breaking down. 1t
simply means that the blood has become
impure and cannot carry enough nourish-
ment TO h nerves TO keep them healthy
and able TO do their work.
Rest, alone, will sometimes give the
needed relief. The tonic treatment by
DR.. Williams Pink Pills, however, pre-
vents the final breakdown of the nerves
and the more serious diseases which
follow, because the pills act directly
upon the impure blood, making it rich,
red and pure.
Mrs. f. G. Bradley, of 1903 Parsells
avenue, Rochester, n. Y, SAYS:
Il was never very healthy and some
years ago, when in a rundown condi-
ton, l suffered a nervous shock, caused
by a misfortune to a friend. 1t was so
great that l was untitled for work.
81 was just weak, low-spirited and
nervous. Icould hardly walk and could
not bear the least noise. Ny appetite
vas poor and l did not care for food. I
couldn't sleep well and once for two
weeks got scarcely an hours sleep. l
had severe headaches most of the time
and pains in the back and spine.
Il was treated by two doctors, being
under the care of one of them for six
months. l got no relief and then de.
cided to try DR.. Williams Pink Pills. I
soon began to feel better and the i'm
prOvement was general. My appetite
became hearty and my sleep better.
The headaches all left and also the pains
in my back. A few more boxes entirely
cured me and I was able TO go back to
work. l felt splendid and as though I
had never been sick"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are invaluable
in such diseases as rheumatism, after
effects of the grip and ~fevers, neuralgia,
St. Vitus' dance and even partial
paralysis and lOcomotor ataxia.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or will be sent, postpaid,
on receipt of price, so cents per box, six
boxes for $50, by the DR.. Williams
