Clean cultivation Of orchards has
been the rule in Colorado. But the
system OF culture has not generally
included the use Of the turning plow.
1t was thought that IL the surface was
kept mellow and free from weeds, an
requirements had been met. In fact,
there seems to have been something
Of a prejudice against the use of the
plow, as it was feared that the injury
TO the tree roots would counteract any
beneficial effect. The continued use Of
shallow cultivators tends to form a
hard pan and MANY orchards show the
effects. Roots need air, and lots Of it,
in order to do their work effectively
The root hairs are less abundant and
many are killed IL the tree Is com
PEELED to live continuously in a hard
compact soil. The effect on the tree
is much the same as though too much
water had been allowed to accumu-
late about the roots Some means
should be taken to loosen such soils,
and this can be done best with plow,
particularly if supplemented by some
growing crop OF stable manure which
is turned under.
Peach growers in one Of the best
sections Of the state, up to about
three years ago. would scarcely allow
plow in the orchard; but since that
time its use has come to be nearly
universal And predict that It will
not be long until q system Of green

use.
The time of year TO use the plow is
now agitating the minds Of many The

That our children will live to see the

In explanation of his theory, Prof
Wright further says: The present

TO the limbo which has swallowed up
the cupper and leecher. We have con-
quered diphtheria with the anti-diph-
theritic serum. With other serums we
will conquer the great white plague

ing close upon its heels. This has been
well shown in the case Of the nebnlar
hypothesis, and now Darwinism in its
turn is sustaining, as best 1t may, tho
assaults of keen-witted men of sciences
who re-examine its facts only to dis
pute its conclusions. Nor is 1t Drema-
ture to say that while some form Of It
will remain, the theory cannot survive.
How has the change been brought

Lamarck is the great rival Of Darwin,
with a reputation and fame a; least
equal to those Of his distinguished
successor.
AS most American naturalists side
with l-amarck, it is interesting to re-
call the fact that some precious exam

What did Lamarck teach regarding
the "origin Of species?" The problem
was TO account for the multiplicity Of
forms which make up the realms Of
plant and animal life. The Influence Of
surroundings, the close adaptation II
each species to its particular environ
ment had already been recognized.
Lamarck took step in advance He
conceived the idea Of explaining dis.
ferences of species by referring thea
to the different conditions under which
species have to exist.
A given environment compels the
animal living in it TO De active IN a
particular way, and this special appll.

being waged by those who hold to
the Darwinian theory on the one hand
and those who hold to the Lamarck
theory on the other, with perhaps the
odds in favor Of the latter When
Charles Darwin nearly half a century
ago published his epOch-making book
on Natural Selection" his theory was
violently opposed.
Yet, many scientific men rallied TO
its support, and after two or three
decades Of discussion, public opinion
settled down into resigned acceptance
OF the new views. Though few
cautious experts, like Huxley, with
held their complete assent. the con-
troversy over the Darwinian theory
seemed at an end. in all problems Of
natural history, Darwinism' became

selection had completely superseded
the necessity for anything like de-
sign IN nature II looked as If the
origin Of species" by the survival OF
the fittest" had triumphed all along
the line. Some went SO far In their
enthusiasm as to regard the famous
English naturalist as the founder Of
the doctrine Of evolution.
