Planting Large Fruit Trees.

Many who wish to set out fruit
trees or trees for shade, pick out the
largest that they can procure. No
greater mistake could be made. The
following, from the Practical Farmer,
is exactly correct in every particular:
An experience of many years among
trees leads me to say that there is
no greater mistake than the planting
of fruit trees Of too large size. A
large tree can be removed with toll
cradle success if prepared for it by
digging around it a season in ad-
vance and severlng some Of it's roots.
But to expect to remove large-sized
tree and have it live and grow as
we'll as a smaller one is out of the
question. I have seen many a hun
dred pear trees of but three or four
years old transp1anted, and if they
but held few leaves for the first
season it was deemed satisfactory, be-
cause there were SO few roots to sus-
tain them. How, then, can a much
larger tree, with generally no more
roots, be expected to sustain a top
two Or three times larger than the
other? It has been proved over and
over again by large planters, that if
two trees are transplanted, one three
years old and the other six years,
the smaller one will overtake the
larger one in the course Of five or six
years. This is because the larger tree,
having but few roots, cannot receive
supply enough from them to enable
it to make fresh shoots.

No Tuberculosis in Goats Milk
The milk of the goat has of late been
the subject of much investigation, and
the highest medical authorities are
unanimous in declaring it to be the
most wholesome and desirable milk OBJ
tanned from animals for human con-
sumption. To begin with, the goat is
extremely insusceptible to, and indeed
practically immune to, tuberculosis.
1t contracts this dread disease only in
conditions which can hardly come
about in the ordinary course of things.
Next, goats milk is more nearly allied
than any other to human milk, not only
III its composition, but also in its pc

beyond refutation that infants deprived

For instance, one of my does gave milk

pints twice day, and has been dry
five months and about to give us kids
again. We have little girl nine years
old, who can milk all of them and take
them out and bring them in, SO you

Experience With Mich Goats.

There are many people who would
like to have little milk every day
and yet do not have use for all the milk
Of even one cow. Also many are so
situated that it would be very diff
cult for them to keep COW. Many
Of them would no doubt find a good

mer and allow the roots to remain
exposed and at the mercy of the
moth for weeks at time.
The same care must be exercised
in the fall as in the spring, as the
moth frequently appears late in No

for few days at time, as it often
| have frequently observed the
moth depositing eggs on the bodv
of the trees during the first week in
November and, although it was cold
enough for frost, the moth moved
actively about from tree to tree. If the
roots are exposed for digging out the
borers between the middle of March
and the first of November the chances
are that great harm will result, as the
moth is actively depositing eggs
from early spring until late in the fall
Nearly everyone who has had any
thing at all to do with borers knows
how to detect their existence in or
about tree. The gummy exudations
at the base of the tree tell the story
too plainly to need anything further
added However, if the tree shows
a lack Of vitality and yet there are
no exudations visible, it would be a
good idea to look we'll about the roots
Of the trees for the borer, as some
times the gum exuding from the in
tested part is prevented from pass
ing out just above the ground, and
therefore, escapes the eye.
A reader and subscriber has some
old apple trees that are, as it seems,
very Improbable The fruit they
bear is small in quantity and poor
in quality, and the orchardist wants
to know whether or not it would be
best to dig them up and set with
young trees. I do not advise such
from a. general standpoint; however,
in some instances, it might be best.
When an apple tree has grown old it
should not neces sarily be destroyed.
In an orchard few years ago I no
ticed some old trees that were loaded
with most excellent fruit. The result
had not come through pruning Or any
design OF the owner, but by storms
or otherwise the main branches had
been broken off and a full head of
young and tender shoots had sprung
up. These branches were six or seven
years old and were bearing most ex-
cellent fruit in satisfactory quantities.
The same result can be brought about
by topping and pruning. In the or
chard just referred to is quite a lot
Of old trees which need to be top
pruned. AS they now stand the limbs
are moss grown and the terminal
shoots are on the verge of decay.
Scarcely single young, thrifty twig
is to be SEEN By cutting off one or
two main branches at a time the head
of the trees could in a few years be
changed into a vigorous growth of
limbs that would hang full of good
fruit every bearing season. 1t is bet
ter to change the tops gradually, for
to cut off all the limbs at once would

A Farmers Valuable Asset.

A Farmers Valuable Asset.
The vast Importance Of good roads
is not realized by farmers. Most Of
them have never seen any good roads
outside of the paved streets of cities,
they cannot understand that country
roads can be made SO smooth and hard
that they could haul as heavy loads
ever them as are hauled on city pave
ments. The argument Of the Savan-
nah Weekly News is sound and I'M
answerab1e Read it for yourself and
then go to work to bring about a state
OF public sentiment which will cause
the building of such roads throughout
the state. The News says:
Mr. A. B. Shearhouse, one Of the
good roads commissioners of Efing
him county, stated the situation in
respect to good roads correctly in his
talk in behalf of good roads at Rim
con on Wednesday, He said good
roads were one of the farmers most
valuable assets.
Remarkable as it may seem, the
farmers cannot be made to act as #
they believed this. They will admit
it, but they are not apparently con-
WINGED of it, They have no argument
to offer against it, and when it is
should make an effort in behalf of
good roads they have no definite an
swer to make The real reason why
they are not more active in insisting
upon good roads is that they would
rather spend one dollar a year in
definitely in working the roads, put
ting up with poor roads, than to spend
ten dollars a year for a few years
and have good roads all the time. The
ten dollars is hard for many Of them
to get. and, hence, it looks like a
large sum. If they would look at the
matter thoughtfully they would see
that it is cheaper in the long run to
put the roads in such condition-to
hard surface them, as it we're what
ever may be the cost, than to go on
spending a small amount each year
without getting results that are per-
manent or satisfactory
1t would pay Efingham or any 9th
er county to levy tax big enough
to improve all it's roads in a given
period Of time, say ten years. When
the roads were once built the cost OF
keeping them in repair wouldn't be
anywhere near as great as it is now,
and therefore the money expended in
the first instance would soon be re-
turned to the taxpayers. But the
great benefit would be to the farmers.
They would be able to get their prod
ucts to market for less than half what
it costs them now Of course we are
not including in this statement rail-
road transportation. We include only
that part of the transportation that
is done by the farmers with their
teams. They would save in horse
flesh, in wagons and harness and in
other ways. And there would be
great saving in time The farmers,
if the roads were good, could get
about the country much more easily
and much quicker. They could visit
their county towns in half the time it
takes them to visit them now. In fact
good roads are big asset of the farm
ers from whatever point of view they
may be considered

THINGS TO THINK OF


The country church must be revived.
Nothing outside of the home can
take the place of home.
The best crop is the crop OF chill
dren; the best products Of the farm
are the men and women raised there
on.
II the man is worth his salt he
will try to take as much as possible
Of the burden off the shoulders Of his
helpmate.
My plea is that we shall all try to
make more nearly universal the con-
ditions that now obtain in the most
favored localities.
Let the plain people insist, on the
one hand. on governing themselves.
and on the other hand on doing exact
justice to the railways.
The farmer must not lose his indie
pendence, his initiative. his rugged
self-sufficieucy; and yet he must
learn to work in the heartiest coop
