A BOOSTER

A booster is one that is for his town when right and when
wrong tries to right it.
He asks for no special privilege to the detriment Of the whole
citizenship
He asks for a square deal for the whole city. When he can
get it he kicks like a bay steer.
HI has a good word for every man and for every just and
honorable enterprise.
He lauds the citizens Of his town and also its great advant
ages, and can see more good than bad in both.
He kicks against city extravaganza, but pleads for just ex-
pendnures.
He glories in everything that will spread the good name Of
his city. and is ever ready to extend a glad hand to the new
conner.
In fact is a genuine booster is a man who loves justice, loves
his city. loves her Institutions, and is ever a ready and willing
helper to put her interests before selfish schemes of all kinds. =

We are all creatures Of habit,
men and women alike. and the habits
and surroundings of daily life have a
powerful influence on the character Of
both. The root of all bad manners is
selfshness when self ever is first, fore
most consideration for others always
lags much In the rear, and drops so
far behind in time that it disappears
altogether. "One cannot keep up the
ceremony and etiquette Of society
when at home" True, for between
friends these can be laid aside. They
merely are the rivets that keep So
ciety together, but not courtesy and
consideration. The latter ought to
be SO much the habit with each of us
that it will become our second nature.
and therefore can be no more laid
aside than can an arm or leg.

Cultivation of the Apple
Orchard

This is the most important feature
OF the treatment of an orchard In
general the trees should be given
clean culture the same as corn or any
other cultivated crop. It is well. how.
ever. to occasionally plow in some
vegetable matter into the soil to rem
der it more resistant of drouth and
to keep 1t from washing. This means
that some other crop than the trees
may be grown in the orchard. In
small home orchards any of the small
fruits may be grown between the
rows. On large areas corn is a good
crop to grow providing the land is
rich enough to produce good crop
and does not wash too badly. II corn
is grown plenty of space should be
left for the trees to make their full
spread Of branches each year. That
means. say, four feet the first year
and q slightly larger space after that
Rye may sometimes be sown after
cultivation ceases in late summer, and
turned under when cultivation begins

Is it not wisdom when building
granary to have good method of
handling the grain without lifting
every pound by hand? Take a crop
of corn, say 1000 bushels. In the
ear it represents 35-ton weight, and
1000 bushels wheat represents 3O-ton
weight. All of this must be lifted by
hand unless in planning the granary,
some means of lifting the grain has
been provided for. A number of port
able elevators are now on the market,
and we believe their first cost is not
too great for the average grain farm
er to own one. By having a convey.
or, the whole length of the building
at the highest point, the situation is
easily controlled, by having a portable
elevator. There are several methods
OF arranging an elevator system for
your building, but none so intricate
but that when the elevator is in

hurry at threshing time and the
great amount of back-aching work in
order to put the grain where you
would like to have it. The elevator
solves the question. Then, again.
think of the corn-husking time. When
one has worked from morning until
noon to make his load, he does not
feel like shoveling corn while the
team is resting in the barn. A little
forethought and planning for this, and
presto-the load is taken care of in a

eRowN-TAIL MOTH IN CANADA.
Reaches Nova Scotia Through Chan.
mel of Traffic from Boston.

The brown-tail moth, which has
been the cause of such enormous
losses in the United States and in
Europe, has at length invaded Can
ada, according to the New York
World. The present season will wit
ness the beginning Of an active war
fare similar to that which has been
waged against the pest in Massachu-
sets for more than five years past
Recently one of the winter nests of
the moth, filled with the living cater
pillars, was sent from Nova Scotia,
where the insect has gained its foot
ing, to DR.. Fletcher, the dominion en-
tomologist, at Ottawa, who identified
them as being the dreaded brown-tail
moth. With the exception of the San
Jose scale there are no two insects,
says DR.. Fletcher, which have attract
ed so much public attention, nor with
regard to which SO much money has
been spent by the state and federal
governments of the United States
than the gypsy moth and the brown
tail moth. Both of these pests have
been introduced into America from
Europe, and millions of dollars have
already been expended in the battle
against them in Massachusetts, and
the adjoining states.
The perfectly developed brown-tail
In Nova Scotia was brought there !di-
rect from Massachusetts through the
marine traffic regularly plying be-
tween Boston and that province. This
would not necessarily show that the
insect had permanently established
itself In this country, to which it has
hitherto been a stranger. The occur
renee. however. of the young cater
pillars is more serious matter, and
unless promptly and effectively com
bated win soon become public ca
lamity.

In spring. Where land is rich and re-
sistant of drouth or where it is so
steep as to wash badly, an orchard
may sometimes be sown to clover for
year or two at time to hold the
soil and to add humus to it. AS q
rule. however. it is best not to use
any crop except clover. that will not
admit of clean cultivation. In many
cases it is well to rotate with different
crops. having part of the orchard in
one thing and part in another This
enables one to harvest only one Sec
ton OF the orchard at a time and to
have succession of different feeds If
hogs are used to eat the orchard
crops While clean cultivation should
be the rule aimed at. it must be re-
membered that one must vary from
this plan to suit his individual condi.
lions and to grow those crops which
win best suit his particular needs.

AS Mr.. Pedelty made no reply to
this assertion, Mrs. Briggs contin-

like to walk over to your mine with

The expressions of dismay, indig-

choice of Starch matter of great i'm

only one which is safe to use on fine
