Heart Of the Apple Tree.

1t is quite a popular impression that
ehe heart Of the apple tree is essential
to its well-being. Yet 1t ia known that
the heart is but dead wood and plays
little part in the life or usefulness of
the tree. 1t helps to keep the tree
upright and gives strength to it after
the wood that composes the heart has
ceased TO perform cellular work. The
strength given by the heart is valua
BILE when great windstorms sweep
over the orchard; for without the
hard wood in the center of the tree
It would bend and break. 1t is often
noticed that hearts of apple trees rot
out, and the trees go on bearing al

Fruit Tree WhItewash,

Last spring l made a whitewash for
apple trees with water in which to.
bacco stems and refuse tobacco had
been boiled, using the usual amount
Of lime required to make a good thick
coal on the trees when applied. The
effect was beyond my expectation. 1t
made the bark look sleek and healthy,
cve on trees that had considerable
moss on them, also the insects were
destroyed on most of the trees. To
spray an orchard thoroughly in early
winter and again in the spring with
the above whitewash will, says Farm
and Home. at least hold many insects
in check.

Dear Sir We asked City Drug Co.,
Crystal Springs, Miss, to sell Devoe.
They wanted to know, of their own
knowledge, how it compared with an
other paint they knew all about-it
was sold right there, and considered
good.
They painted the house of w B Nc
Cluney two coats on purpose to test
the two paints against One-anOther:
one coat Devoe 6 gallons; the other
coat that other paint 10 gallons. Diff
ference $40; 81 for paint, $13 for labor.
That other paint is made in New
Orleans; is pure; is considered an ex-
cellent paint, and has a good deal of
local goodwill
But the standard of paint has been
low all through the southwest. That
paint is thin; it is, you see, siX-tenths
of a paint Devoe saves $50 over it on
half a small job.
1t is a case of local best compared
with actual best

play in Miss Crothers' Myself
Bettina,' now at Days. 1t has not
caught the intense enthusiasm of the
public. but that is because the local APP
petite must be stimulated by highly
seasoned fare 1t is a play that will
win by degrees the more refined, the
more discriminating, the real lovers of
the drama.
The commandingly emotional voice
of Nance O'Neil has been heard at the
Majestic in a new play, Agnes, by
George Cameron. This play affords
her opportunities for considerable
display of her powers, but she never
can seem to reach just the right en-
vironment that might create the veri-
table sensation that her great gifts
should command.
Edgar Selwyn, whom all remember
as the inimitably effective Tony" in
Augustus Thomas Arizona" has
dramatized Sir Gilbert Parker's
pierre And His People" Under the
title of pierre of the Palms." Mr.
Selwyn is starred by Henry B. Harris
in this book-play. 1t is the best drama
tiZed book we have had thus far. 1t is
not perfect 1t has not the big, vital,
compelling unusualness of a tremen-
dous idea, nor the wondrous enthrall-
ment of WOndrouS h2art-tOuchlng
truth; but it is a story we'll told, and
the author has achieved what no one
else has accomplished heretofOre-he
has eliminated a hundred thousand
possible appeals in the book and chung
steadfastly to the dramatic tale. The
play is well cast and eXcellently played
throughout
George NJ Cohan has finally put over
the fastest paced thing of the century,
1.-The American Idea" Talk about
hitching your fancy to a comet. The
speed of that musical zip is quite be-
yond belief. | never saw stage people
work with such vim and grace and
faultless precision. ''The Yankee
Prince waved the American flag
around England, and we saw that it
was good. The American Idea" I'M
furls the stars and stripes in racy
Paris, and it is better. The piece has
the Cohan quality, the dash, the
Broadway flavor, the American good
nature, the gorgeousness of all Co
hans musical productions and it goes
everything a few yards better as to
dancing pace. 1t is a gee-Whiz in three
acts.
Perhaps the most important play of
this season is the Fighting Hope in
which Blanche Bates is playing at the
Belasco-Stuyvesant The play is by
William !. Hurlbut, and is a master
piece. Blanche Bates with her ner-
vous, intellectual temperament struck
us in new place and harder than ever
before. Perhaps the best element in
her work is it's realism. She lives that
part. 1t is the best sustained, the cap
ital achievement of her career.
Several other good dramas and mus
ical plays are to be seen on Broadway
this fall. Grace Van StudafOrd in
''The Golden Butterfly" by Smith and
De Koven, has scored a well deserved
success.

while the races are going on. and one

EXHIBIT AT DOG SHOW

Two handsome golden -sablo and
white, rough-coated Scotch collie pups,
bred by Edgar Buffum, jr., of this city,
are to be shown.
Gretna Jewel is one of these, and is
entered in the puppy, local and novice
classes, and though still undeveloped,
is a wonder in the eyes of judges for
her age, six months, and is certain to
give a good account of herself though
in the hottest competition with dogs
from Samuel Untermeyer's aud j.. L.
Morgan's kennels.
Gretna Jewel has ten champions in
her pedigree-dogs which have won in
the winners class ten times each.
Her mother is Wellesbourne Brenda,
recently a winner of twenty-five first
prizes at New York, Boston, Toronto,
Atlantic City and Chester, and two
silver challenge bowls for best collie
in show. He father is champion
Wellesbourne Conquest, owned by DIR.
Henry Jarrett, who was judge of col
lies at Madison Square Garden this
year.
Jeanne Is the litter sister of Gretna
Jewel, and was recently sold by Mr..
Buffum to Harry McDougall, of this
city.

WAGNER ANNOUNCES
HIS RETIREMENT.

PITTSBURG, Pa, March 16.-All
doubt as to the retirement. of Wagner
from the Pirates was set at rest yes
terday when, as the team was about
to start south, there came a letter to
Barney Dreyfuss from Wagner. 1t
was his formal notice of withdrawal,
and read as follows:
ST will not be with your team this
season, but wish you a pennant win
ner, and will always be plugging for
the boys. 1t is hard for me to lay
aside the uniform which l have been
wearing since 1897, but every dog has
his day, and the sport has become too
strenuous for M L can look back and
see that / was lucky in landing with
you in Louisville, and that / made no
mistake in staying with Pittsburg dur
ing war times.
"I was offered double the amount l
asked from you then, butI have been a
gamer by it, as my salary has always
remained the same. Besides, l have
had the benefit of knowing that you
appreciated the fact that l always gave
the club the best 1 had"

Coilies will be one of the leading ex-
hibits at the local dog show, which
opens in this city on Thursday at
Kurz's Colosseum. The list of entries
in this class stands second.
The Greystone Kennel of Samuel I'm
termeyer, the New York lawyer, which
swept everything before it at New
York and at the more recent Collie
Club show, has sent in a good entry
of its best dogs. The collie of j. Pier
pont Morgan. which he recently pre-
scented to his kennel manager, Alfred
Blewitt, are also coming down from
Highland Falls. In this lot are Wishaw
Clinker, for which Mr.. Morgan was
said to have paid $4,000. OrmsklrlS
Olympian was bought at the same time
for So, 900, and with them will be Orm-
skirk Nightingale, a celebrity from the
other side. DIR. Jarrett, of Philadelphia,
who judged collies at New York,
bought a dog called Wishaw Chance,
which he awarded second place over all
other collie dogs. This dog he has en-
tered at the show. Mr.. Blackwood, OF
Trenton; Mr.. Walters, of Philadelphia,
and a very large number of local
~fanciers are to be exhibitors.
