HORTICULTURAL NOTES.

| Pock your apples honestly and put
your name and address on each barrel
or box.
When dealer buys apples he is
pretty likely to cut into both ends Of
the barrel.
The American varieties of the plum
are harder thai either the Japanese or
European kinds.
The young trees set out this spring
need care and water at this time.
Look to them.
4 When trees are affected with peach
yellow they should be exterminated,
root and branch.
A fortune is waiting the propagator
of a hardy red raspberry. But quality
must not be sacrificed for hardness
No fruit should be allowed to 20 to
waste as long as there is possibility
of making cider, vinegar and infer
mented grape juice.
Very few pears are at their best il
allowed to ripen on the tree. A good
rule is to pick when the seeds have
turned brown.
Our orchards are largely what we
make them. Good cultivation, tender
care and knowledge of conditions
make for success in fruit growing
Wood ashes are of use for fertilizer
in the orchard. A combination Of
wood ashes and manure in the orchard
is considered an excellent fertilizer
for apple trees.
Apples keep best when allowed to
hang on the trees until they reach
maturity, but that does not mean soft
and ripe. 1t is common fallacy that
green, immature fruit will keep the
best.
One packer is authority for the
statement that the cost of picking
apples varies from seven cents per
barrel where the trees are low, to 20
cents per barrel where the trees are
large and limbs high.

NEW YORK. An experimental
~ moving platform subway under
Broadway, from Fourteenth to Forty
second streets, to be built and oper-
ated by the Continuous Transit Com

Press, been recommended to the pub

public likes it, and is likely to be
adopted in other intensely congested
routes. This is the kind of subway
which Vanderbilt and his associates
tried to get the old rapid transit
board to let them build in Thirty
fourth street. The project was
killed by Metropolitan street railway
interests, so it was testified in WINS
Metropolitan Investigation.
Seaman tells the public service
commission that the continuous belt
conveyor has been found to be the
cheapest and speediest mechanical
contrivance in factories and ware
houses, and he believes the same
principle can be applied to rapid

transit. The idea is to have con-
tinuous moving platform, equipped
with seats. moving at IL miles an
hour. The passenger will first step
on platform going three miles an
hour, then to an adjoining one going
six miles an hour, then to the next
one going nine miles an hour, and,
lastly, to the endless moving plat
form.
The local subway trains, Seaman
says, never average more than 10
miles an hour and do not go more
than 10 miles an hour in rush hours
and their limit is 22,500 passen-
gers an hour. The expresses. he
says, can carry only $4,000 an hour.
Surface cars, he says, make only
three miles an hour in rush hours,
and never more than eight miles an
hour AS against this, he says, the
continuous moving platform will
carry 1880 passengers an hour, all
seated.
Seamsa says that disadvantage
is higher original cost, but that
this may be be offset by the in
creased earning power from larger
patronage, short trips and from
other sources. He has had the de-
vice most carefully investigated, he
says, and is convinced it may be de-
signed so as practically to be noise
less. He adds that the designs and
estimates tend to show that this
method of conveyance will be eff
cient, safe and reliable, and, with
dense traffic, most economical.

SO fast that the Canadians were
ashamed to postpone the event. Thew

areas OF prairie land have yielded in
abundance, and here, by the way, it is
not uninteresting to the friends Of
the millions of Americans who have
made their home in Canada during the
past few years to know that they have
participated most generously in the

reason of any Of the provinces to ex.
press In the most enthusiastic manner
their gratitude. The results in the
line OF production give ample reason
for devout thanksgiving to Providence.
This year has surpassed all others in
so far as the total increase in the coun
try's wealth is concerned. There is nc
question that Providence was espe.
cially generous. The weather condi.
I tions were perfect, and during the
ripening and harvesting period, there
was nothing to interfere. And now it
was we'll 1t was so, for with demand
for labor that could not be supplied,
there was the greatest danger, but
with suitable weather the garnering of
the grain has been successfully accom-.
plished. There have been low gen.
eral averages, but these are account
ed for by the fact that farmers were
indifferent, relying altogether upon
what a good soil would do. There
will be no more low averages though,
for this year has shown what good,
careful farming will do. 1t will pro.
luce 1870 million bushels of wheat from
seven million acres, and 1t will pro.
duce splendid lot of oats, yielding
anywhere from so to 100 bushels per
acre. This on land that has cost but
from $40 to SIS per acre-many farm
ers have realized sufficient from this
years crop to pay the entire cost of
their farms. The Toronto Globe says:
"The whole population of the West
rejoices in the bounty of Providence,
and sends out a message of gratitude
and appreciation of the favors which
have been bestowed on the country.
The cheerfulness which has abounded
with industry during the past six
months has not obliterated the concep-
ton of the source from which the
blessings have flown, and the good
feeling is combined with spirit Of
thankfulness for the privilege of living
/ in SO fruitful land. The misfortunes
of the past are practically forgotten,
because there Is great cause to con-

forts of the present. Thanksgiving

Trimming Fruit Trees.

Apple trees and other fruit trees
that were trimmed last winter and
spring will now begin to produce
sprouts around the scars. Much fu-
3ure labor may be saved if the orchard
is gone over every few weeks during
the summer and these sprouts rubbed
off or cut off. Not allowing them to
grow will conserve the food supply of
the tree and it will be used for growth
in desired branches.
