inspect the Orchard Frequently Dur.
ing the Winter Months.

Every man that has orchard trees
should 90 over the orchard frequently
In the winter to make sure that his
trees are not being attacked by any
kind Of animals. II every man would
do that, large numbers OF trees would
be saved. Often the trees are being
Injured under the crust of snow. One
man had hundreds of small trees
killed in single winter. The snow
lay a few inches deep and above it
formed strong crust. There was
much grass in the orchard, and this
formed the home Of many field mice
They had become hungry and worked
their way under the crust to the trees,
which they proceeded to attack under
the snow. Had the owner dug away
the snow from around his trees
enough to make sure they were not
being attacked, the mice would have
been discovered at work, and their
mischief stopped before it had gone
far. On plowed land or In orchards
where clean culture has been fol-
lowed, there is little danger of this,
but most of the orchards are in grass
and SO are liable to these attacks.

We wish to make our abject apollo
gies to Hon. Hezekiah E. Kinney
for having said of him in our last Is
sue that he fumigates his garments.
What we meant to say was Eliminates
mis- arguments We have had our eye
on the printer ever since he twisted q
phrase which appeared in an editorial
of ours from full of internal rotten
ness and dead mems bones into In.
ternal rattlesnakes and dead wren's
tones. And as soon as our eye lit
upon this gratuitOus insult above to
the Hon. Hezekiah r. Kinney we
armed ourselves with our repeating
shotgun, sought out the guilty party
and shot him down in cold blood, not
withstanding the fact that the now
deceased was the only support OF q
widowed mother and possessed large
and flourishing family We wish to
assure the Hon. Hezekiah E. Kinney
that in the future his person and his
speeches will be handled in these col.
