GROWING NUT TREES.
III Planting Follow Natures Own Way
40 Much as Possible.

az Muoh as Po66tpios sassst gS
The age at which any nut trees come
into bearing depends on the care given
to the trees. Some authorities state
that fifteen or twenty years are neces.
sary to bring them into full bearing
from the time the nut Is planted. This
Is a mistake, as trees that have been
wen cared for should bear q bushel Of
nuts In ten years, and the quantity
will increase rapidly each year after
that time.
Some persons may enjoy raising
these trees from seed 10 be sure, 1t

nuts, If they have thin shells be per-

them as soon as they ripen and plant

NO PANIC
JAMES ]. HILL DECLARES HE HAS
NOT PREDICTED A COLLAPSE
IN BUSINESS
ROOM FOR A LITTLE SLOWING UP.
WITHOUT DISASTER TO THE &
COUNTRY

New Y FORK. April Il James j.. Hill
on his arrival here was asked
whether, on his recent trip he had
seen any further signs Of the recession
in business which he pointed out
some weeks ago was already begin
ming, Mr. Hill said:
East of Chicago there are more
signs Of recession than west of that
city, but even in the west very much
work is being postponed by the rail-
roads. While in the west T inquired
of q manufacturer who is building
some Of our cars how soon he could
begin to make deliveries, and he
named a date six weeks earlier than
he was able TO set the last time: I
made a similar inquiry That is one
indication of a slowing up.
II have at no time predicted a
panic or a collapse in business, but I
have believed, and still believe, that
there must be a general slowing up.
There is room, though, for a great deal
OF slowing up without any trouble re-
sulting. But I think many men viii
be laid off BY the industries this fall,
and still more next year If present
indications hold good. Z B
The railroads, however, Mr.. Hill
pointed out, are still oYercrowded with
traffic The Great Northern, he said,
had 5000 freight cars, most of them
box cars. off on other lines, against
possibly 5000 foreign cars on the
Great Northern's lines The officers
of the road have found It practically
impossible to get these cars back.
Some Of them have been off the line
for eight months. The Great North
ern has eight men travelling over the
country looking for Great Northern
cars to have them sent home.

clare that their bills for repairs III

astounding rate during the past year.
According to one firm the repair bill
for March was more than four times
the amount spent on repairs in March,
1906. and other firms report increases
Of from 90 per cent up. Veterinary

portions. The heads OF the big DEPART

with keen interest the efforts OF organ

report that there are many holes ii the
streets which break springs, whine
