If you planted all those trees that you should have planted last fall and winter, you should take time to see that they are kept free from being choked out this year by grass and weeds, and it sometimes happens that a bucket of water or two will pull a tree over a hard dry spell. Look after the trees; it will pay big.

Dairymen claim chat $500 worth of grain removes $500 worth of clements from the soil, but that $500 worth of butter removes practically nothing. This is a matter that all good farm CTS should look to.

You can not go on forever cropping a soil without wearing it out, unless you at the same time replenish its fertility by the addition of some sort of soil help. Don't let the rains car ry your farm off to the sea.

There Is hardly a first-rate farm in all the South that would not be bet ter off if it had a few stands of bees.

home, but the information was subse- cuently given out that the visit was -ot occasioned by an alarming condi- tron of the former presidents health.
 When the end came, only Mrs. Cleveland, the physicians and attend ants were at the bedside, the Cleve- land children being at the expresi- dents summer home at Tamworth, N. H., in the care of their maternal grandmother, Mrs. Perrine.
 Mrs. Cleveland was particularly cheerful Tuesday night over the con- dition of her husband. He was ap- parently in good spirits and his health appeared better than 1t had been for some time
 In the afternoon he took a little outdoor exercise and retired at his usual hour Tuesday night.
 All of Princeton Is Shocked.
 When the discovery of his death was made Wednesday morning the residents of Princeton were shocked. and the grief of Mrs. Cleveland was almost uncomfortable. For . number of years Mir Cleveland had suffered from periodical attacks of sickness, usually in the summer time. Last year he became i'll in the spring and did not recover his wonted health un- til September.
 Mrs. Cleveland Tuesday night was
 hot nd hod covered so quickly this year. and she was on the verge of planning for their summers recreation.
 Mrs. Cleveland CoIIapses.
 At once after her husbands death Mrs. Cleveland collapsed. It marked the end of her terrific struggle which had been waged for years in the in- terests of her husbands health. How ever, she soon rallied.
 While MT. Cleveland's condition was naturally rugged. it had been weakened by disease. He had sui fered from kidney and intestinal trou- bles.
 The Cleveland children were noti- fled Wednesday morning and are hur- rying to Princeton. They have been at Tamworth, N. H., with Mrs. Cleve- lands mother, Mrs. Perrine. So san suine were the family over the con- dition of MT. Cleveland that 1t was not even thought advisable to keep the children at home.
 The death of the former president Wednesday ends one of the most stub- horn fights for life ever chrOnicled.
 For many years MT. Cleveland had suffered, and in that time there had been many rumors of his approach ing death.
 When MT. Cleveland was removed from Lakewood to his Princeton res. idence he was conveyed in large touring car, owned by John Hays Hammond. the millionaire mining ex- nert who was a candidate for the vice presidential ticket.
 MT. Cleveland looked weak and neaked. and the trip was made slow Iv MT. Cleveland at that time was attended almost constantly by Dr. G. Rowe Lockwood.
 Ex-president Cleveland had been invited to attend the conference or governors at Washington, but was too i'll to be present.
 Through the long fight for health tbe one bright spot in the battle against disease were the devotion ana untiring affection of Mrs. Cleveland. She was constantly at her husosnos bedside.
