the trees. This is better done before
winter, as occasionally rabbits get
into the habit Of trying their teeth
on the trees before severe weather,
and while there is yet plenty of feed
to be obtained auQ
1t is a good practice TO leave any
sprouts or suckers which grow up
around the small orchard trees during
the latter part of summer until the
following spring as the rabbits win
often nip them off and apparently be
content and so the tree itself es-
capes On the same principle, fresh
ly cut prunings from the trees may
be left for the rabbits to feed upon.
Washing or coating the trees with
something offensive to the rabbits is
generally effective so long as the coat
ing remains. There are many prepare
tons on the market for this purpose
and various formula for mixtures are
given: Whitewash, to which carbolie
acid or coal tar is added is effective
as long as il stays on the trees.
Nhere rabbits are very numerous
soKe means should be taken to de-
stroy them and trapping and shoot
ing are probably the best methods
of doing this.
Water should not be allowed to
stand around the trees in the winter
time and where proper attention has
been given to cultivating the orchard
there will be slight slope from the
trees in each direction, but occasion
ally in hoeing around the trees or
in looking for borers, the earth may
lbe drawn away enough to form a lit
tie basin next to the tree so it is well
to look to this and where necessary
throw little dirt around them and
smooth 1t down before the ground is
frozen.
Some of the best orchard land is
quite susceptible TO washing and
where this is the case and there is
tendency to outlying, it may be profit
able to take measures to prevent it.
Brush, trimmings from trees, straw
or sods may be used as the occasion
requires. and often to great advan-
tage in the fall

A STEADY DRAIN.
Sick Kidneys Weaken the Whole
Body -Make You Ill, Languid and
Depressed

Sick kidneys weaken the body
through the continual drainage of life
giving albumen from the blood into
the urine, and the substitution of poi
sonuos uric acid that goes broadcast
through the system, sowing the seeds
OF disease. Loss of albumen causes
weakness, languor, depression. Uric
poisoning causes rheumatic pain, ner-
yousness, nausea, cricks in the back,
gravel and kidney stones The prop
er treatment is a kidney treatment,
and the best remedy is Doan's Kidney
Pills.
w f. Kimmel, living on Piedmont
street, Keyser. w. Va, says: Il suf-
fered from kidney trouble for six
or seven years, causing dull ache
in the small of my back. In my work

sition most of the time, and this |

trouble. It annoyed me more during
the day than at night and gradually
grew worse when other complications

relieved me in short time, and |

It's easy to understand why so few
of us have money. Those who know
how to make it don't know how to
keep It, and those who can keep it
can't get it, and that's the only reason
why they can't keep it.

FOR THE FARM, ORCHARD AND GARDEN
Matters Of Importance to The AgfcuNrSt and HOuCuNuPst
Preparing the Orchard Fer Winter


Preparing the Orchard Fer Winter
Some orchardists make the mistake
Of neglecting their orchards during
the latter part Of the season aztec
giving them good attention in the
earlier portion. This is sometimes a
serious matter and followed by unfor-
tunate results. The work required in
an orchard after cultivation ceases
does not require much time, but does
demand some attention to detail
In young apple orchard, special at
stention should be paid to looking aft
er the borers which work in the
ground and If the trees have not
been examined closely during the
latter part of the summer. they should
be attended to before the cold wealth
er comes
Sometimes it is necessary to scrape
away little dirt from around the
trees to discover their work which
can generally be detected by the fine
dark sawdust like chips or behring's
which are thrown out. Cut the bor-
ers out with fine pointed knife or
! il they have worked into the wood.
a fine wire can often be used to
reach and kill them
Pruning, while not necessary
work in the fall may sometimes be
done to advantage where there is leis-
ure time to attend to it during the
fall months, and save that much work
in the spring.
Where limbs of much size are tax
en- off the wounds should he painted
over with thick paint. 1t is not adj
visable to prune severely or to take
off very large branches during the
early winter months, although light
pruning and the cutting out of suck
ers can sometimes be done advan-
tageously then.
One very essential matter is the
removal of all trash and weeds from
close around the trees which will
serve as harbor for mice. If this
is not attended to before winter the
mice will often girGle the trees aft
en- a heavy fall of snow, and il is
sometimes necessary to tramp the
snow around the trees at such a time.
but this is disagreeable job and
it is easier and better to remove the
trash in the fall.
A few years ago mice were very nu-
merous during the fall and were found
IN large numbers burrowing at the
base of the trees and working amongst
the roots. This is something unusual
in the writer's experience and seemed
to call for vigorous treatment.
The plan successfully adopted in
this case was to place poison in the
holes two or three times at intervals
of few days, and then late in the
fall, just before the ground froze, to
pack the earth solidly around the
trees and smooth it off so as to leave
no harbors for the mice. Where the
trunks Of trees are girdled only part
OF the way around they should be
moulded up earth and kept so dur
ing the following season.
Rabbits are another pest to be
guarded against during the winter
by the orchardist, especially while the
trees are small, and where they are
very numerous some sort of protec-
ton to the trees is absolutely neces-
sary.
Wood veneer wrappers are manu-
featured which are easily applied by
wrapping around the trees but where
these are not available substitutes may
be used such as paper or cornstalks
cut 2 feet in length and tied around

THE STRENUOUS LIFE.

One Days Work of a Sixteenth Cen.
tury Law Student.
II law students of the present day
are laboring under the delusion that
when the world was younger there was
less law to study and more relaxation
for young men Of their class, let them
read the following extract that an
English contemporary has taken from
the Memoirs Of Henri de Mesmes,"
descriptive OF a days work Of a law
student at Toulouse in the sixteenth
century:
"We used to rise from bed at
o'clock, and, having prayed to God, we
went at 8 o'clock to our studies, our
big books under our arms, our ink
horns and candles In our hands. We
heard all the lectures without inter
mission till 10 o'clock rang. Then we
dlned after having hastily compared
during half hour our notes OF the
lectures
after dinner we read as recrea-
ton Sophocles or Arlstophanes or Eu"
ripides and sometimes Demosthenes,
Cicero Virgil or Horace At o'clock
to our studies, at back to our dwell
ing places, there to go over and verify
passages cited in the lectures until @;
then supper, and after supper we read
Greek or Latin.
"On holy days we went to high mass
and vespers; the rest Of the days, a
little music and walks"

In the home.
In treating the servant question,
the speaker maintained that she ought
to be treated as a member OF the
household not to suffe. the neglect and
abuse so often bestowed upon them.
Allow the servant to occupy comfort
BILE quarters In the home. Supply her
every coneni ence of society, and do
not force her to seek companionship
and social intercourse in doubtful
places.
The speaker reached the climax OF
his lecture by paying high tribute
to bis mother. Her prayers and Gcd-
ly life, linked by strong faith in her
boy, had been the means of planting
In bis life an indomitable purpose to
reciprocate by living a life OF deyo-

Beethoven was born in small house
in Bonn. His father had inherited the
vice of drinking, and often Beethoven
and his younger brother were obliged
to take their intoxicated father home.
He was never known to utter an un-
kind word about the man who made
his youth so unhappy, and he never
failed to resent 1t when third person
spoke uncharitably OF his fathers
frailty. Young Beethoven was thus
taught many!a severe lesson In the
hard school of adversely, but his trials
were not without advantage to him.
They gave to his character that iron
texture which upheld him under his
heaviest burdens.
