A Willow Fence.

NV fathers orchard on the old farm
in western New York was swept by
strong west winds. We had lot Of
willow trees which had been topped
several years before and which had
made very rapid growth. We cut
off this new growth and made it into
lengths eight feet long. These were
from one to two or more inches in
diameter at the small end. We then
plowed and cleaned a double furrow
about three feet deep along the or
chard fence and stretched guide lines
The willow poles were then set eight
inches apart at an angle Of about thir-
ty degrees, and two light strips of thin
boards were nailed on. The sod and
the best OF the earth were filled in and
tramped at the bottom so as to leave
everything In good shape. Longer
pieces were used at regular intervals
so as to give the fence stability from
the start. These willow posts all grew
and made fence that bird could
scarcely get through. B. R. in Or

1t was long ago ascertained that the
tender leaved varieties of potato are
most affected by the Colorado potato
beetle while other kinds. with less ten
der foliage such as Peach Blow and
Early Rose, are comparatively immune,
more particularly when growing in the
same field with the preferred variety.
Even eggplant seems to be preferred
to certain varieties of potato and is
consequently damaged at times, and
tomatoes are subject to injury when
the foliage of potato is not available

GRADING FRUIT.
earsissAnsss In Preparing Products
For Market

GarsissAnsss In Preparing Products
For Market
In preparing fruit for market not in
frequently packages are used which
are unsuited to the nature of the fruit.
A bushel basket is poor means for
carrying and displaying delicate, high
class fruit like peaches A barrel is
too large for soft fruit like Bartlett
and Clapp pears. Often a twenty
pound basket of grapes will be beg
ging for purchaser, while if the same
fruit were placed in dainty three
pound baskets the fruit would sell like
hot cakes at % and 80 cents apiece.
or to 10 cents per pound for tho
grapes.
The most common evidence Of care
lessness on the part Of the fruit grower
lie the sending OF ungraded products TO
market An ungraded package show
ing large, intermediate and small spec
linens of fruit almost invariably sells
at the rate paid for inferior stun. 1t
would probably sell at better price if
every specimen in the package were
small, the large specimens being a det-
riment rather than otherwise. II is
frequent sight In the commission
houses OF any Of our large cities to see
men sorting and repacking fruit care
lessly put up by the farmer The COM
mission men pay the farmer mini
mum price for the whole package, and
that Ia the best that can be got for 1t
The large, fine specimens are sorted out
and packed in a small package and
bring a special price, often much great
er than could be got for the whole orig
inal ungraded package. The. profit for
such grading, which might have gone
to the grower, naturally went to the
commission merchant who did the
work. The farmer moreover, paid the
same freight on the inferior fruit in
the package that he did on the special
grade that brought the special price to
the commission merchant A good
type Of machine grader greatly reduces
the labor and cost OF grading. Defec-
tive specimens are removed from the
graded fruit as 1t Is put into the pack
ages.-Maryland Experiment Station.

Early Australian gold diggers made
many contributions to the slang of
that commonwealth. One Of these
was shouting" or standing drinks for
everybody within hall, a practice Of
which the lucky digger was very fond.
To refuse to drink with a digger who
had struck 1t rlch," or turned up a
big nugget, was a deadly insult A
critic quotes from ]. f. Hogan's His

He Beat Chemawa's Favorite.

Joe Maleolmson. of the Spokane
Amateur Athletic Club of Spokane
Washington, had a match 1O0-yard
footrace at Chemawa this morning
with Levi Sorter, the crack Indian
sprinter. Malcolmson defeated Sor-
ter by two yards in 10 3-5 seconds on
a wet clay track. Sorter led for so
yards, when the speedy white boy
ovehauled him and won handily. The
time was regarded as exceptionally
fast, considering the condition of the
track.
MalcolmsOn is one of the best
known runners of the country, having
run for the past three years under
the eolors of the Chicago Amateur
Athletic Association. and is regarded
as the fastest amateur runner in the
country, having record of 80 is
seconds for 500 yards. His best time
for 10 yards has been 10 seconds. a
mark on which he has made on many
occasions.
The Spokane boy plays end on tae
