In pruning the trees all stems half
an inch or more in diameter should be
covered with some waterproof sub
stance, like grating wax or shellac Of
the consistency of cream. The bnrk
and outer wood will thus be preserved,
and the wound win in a season or 80
be covered with new bark. If this pre-,
caution be not taken the end of the
branch may decay from exposure to
wind, rain, heat and cold.

When the Chicago banks suspended

himself in bad way financially, be-

meet his pay roll and pay immediate
obligations. But his trouble did not
last long. His employees heard about
it and held an informal meeting. The
