Preferably the nuts are planted in
autumn. The sprouts will grow about
a foot the first year and for the first
three years grow slowly During this
time is the best for transplanting, as
when older the growth becomes much
more rapid Up to that age they rare

When set in the orchard they should
be placed forty-five to nifty feet apart
each way and the ground planted to
some cultivated crop. such as corn or
potatoes. Peaches or plums may be
used to advantage as filters. The best
time to prune Is between fall and
spring. Only such branches should be
removed from the main trunk as. would

until the trunk Is six to seven feet high

the ground should be kept spaded three

The Question Answered For Those Not
Familiar With the Organization.
With 100000 members in the United
States, it would seem altogether un.
necessary to ask or answer the ques-
ton, but this paper may come under
the eye of some one who is not ia
miliar with its aims and principles
The grange is an organization of farm
ers for their mutual welfare. Among
the specific objects named in its dec
laration of purposes are these: TO Ell
nance the comforts and attractions OF
home; to develop a higher and bet
ter manhood and womanhood among
ourselves; to further cooperation; to
buy less and produce more in order to
make our farms self sustaining; to
bring producers and consumers, farm
ers and manufacturers, into the most
direct and friendly relations possible.
The grange is nonpartisan, yet its
principles underlie all true politics and
craftsmanship. 1t believes in cooper
ating in every legitimate manner for
its own protection and to enhance its
interests.
The Order is called Patrons of Hus-
bandry, and the head Of the national
grange is Hon. n. J. Bachelor of Con
cord, n. II. Twenty-eight states have
state organizations. Below them are
the county organizations. called Pomo-
ma oranges. and below these are the
5000 or 5000 subordinate oranges.
Meetings are held of these subordinate
oranges once a month or oftener, where
subjects pertaining TO the farmers in
terests, social. educational and agri-
cultural, are discussed. Women are
on an equality with men in the grange.
and to them not a little of the wonder
ful success Of the organization is due.
Its purpose may be stated in Il word
or to uplift the farmer morally
socially. educationally and materially.

In 1876 my father, while visiting the
Centennial exposition, secured some
fine English walnuts from large tree
at Philadelphia. These he planted on
his return home. In due time they all
produced shoots, and, though Mt first
slowly, they grew into strong. wide
spreading trees which bear profitable
crops. The older and full grown trees
bear an average Of about twenty bush
els annually. The largest of these
measures forty-six feet across. As wal
nuts retail at about 20 cents a pound,
these crops are worth about 1925 each
tree in the final market.
The trees have glossy green leaves
and are clearly at all times. thus form
ing beautiful and serviceable shade
trees as well as profitable ones. Frost

A POMONA ADDRESS.
Some Possibly Radical Views on Vsri-
Gus Subjects Expressed.


The custom was inaugurated some
years ago in the Columbia county IN.
" Pomona of having an annual ad-
dress by the master covering the work
of the year briefly and making sug-
gestlons for advancing the work in the
year to come. At the Columbia county
Pomona meeting in January the mas
ter, Edward Van Alstyne of Kinder
hook, gave a most admirable address,
from which few extracts appeared in
the Country Gentleman. Speaking Of
the organization of new oranges, he
said he believed it to be a mistake to
plant them where the field Is prac-
tlcally crowded with them already.
He had had opportunity to observe the
usefulness of the Order over wide
field and too often had found oranges
that had name to live, but were
dead. The cause most times was an
untimely start or placed where the
support was insufficient On increas-
ing membership he said we should not
go out into the byways and hedges, as
it were and compel people to come in
who have little sympathy with the pur-
poses of the Order or with agriculture.
Such are likely to be Il burden or an
element of discord.
Mr. Van Aistyne believed it to be Il
serious mistake to depart from the
principles Of our Order and take in as
members those not directly interested
in agriculture. however cstimable PEG
pie they may be in other respects. We
should also avoid, said he, that class of
membership that has only an eye for
the "loaves and fishes" The one who
comes into the Order only that he may
be able to insure his buildings at a
less cost or buy a horse blanket or a
bushcl of clover seed % cents cheap
er is worth only his Initiation fee and
annual dues to the Order. The hope
of our agriculture is in our youth
They should he in our oranges. Let
them dance at the proper time if they
wish TO. and better that they do it
under the restraining. refining intlu-
ence of the grange than to be forced
to go outside to places perhaps they
ought not to go. And let them fill some
of the Offices occasionally. 1t will in
crease their interest and train them for
future service. He recommends the
organization Of Juvenile oranges wher
ever practicable He advises a meet
ing of the subordinate lecturers under
the direction of the county lecturer tC
discuss the programmes and literary
work in general. He closed with d
strong word Of counsel to send only
representative men and women as
delegates to the state grange and sug
gested that prior to the meeting oil
the Pomona for electing delegate:
each grange in the county be request
ed to send to the secretary of the Po
mona the names of one man and one
woman and that the delegates be Sc
lected from the persons so nominated.
