CLEAN UP THE ORCHARD.
Autumn is the Best Time to Do This
Work.

There is no idle time in the year for the one who makes fruit growing his business. With him everything comes with a rush and must be done at the proper time in the proper manner. It is one con- tinual round of hustle, and the fruit grower who is handling his orchard in the most approved manner can well exclaim, this is my busy day" The first thing in spring is the spraying, a job that must be done at exactly the right time or it is not a success When the first spray ing is over with, there comes with a rush the work of cultivating, or irrigating, or the planting of catch crops or the garden work, to be followed immediately with the sec ond spraying. And so 1t goes un- til harvest Harvest season is all ways busy time, no matter what the crop, but for the fruitgrower 1t means a hard, steady strain every hour in the day until the fruit is off the trees and either in the hands of the dealer or in the storage.
 But when the crop is off and the long cool nights of fall have come, the years work is not ended, even if some careless fruit-growers do think so. The year has in fact just begun 1t is the morning of the next year; it is the time to get scrubbed up and cleaned up for the next seasons business. It is the grand renovation period and the

time to put orchards and ground in shape for their next crop. More good work in the campaign against injurious insects and fungi can be done in the fall by cleaning out the. fence corners and burning up the rubish than by half dozen days of spraying the next spring All of the old weeds in the borders and the uneven places in the orchard, where they have ben skipped by the cultivator or mower, should be gathered together and burned They are the lodging places of many insect pests of the orchard It may be necessary to sprinkle oil on some scattering spots to encourage the rubbish to burn. All of the prun- ings that are cut in the fall should be burned. so as to destroy the in- sect eggs and fungus spores that are lodged on them.
 It is worth while to stir the sur face Of the soil In the orchard LII the fall, if it is at all possible to do SO This will break up the bur- rows of the plum and apple eureu- lio and some other insects, so as to expose them to the freezing and thawng of winter, so they will be killed.
 If the orchard has been in clean cultivation all summer, 1t is pos sible that a cover was sown in Au- gust, in which case fall cultivation will not be needed, but if the or chard is in sod the grass will need to be moved before winter. Do not pile the clippings around the bases of the trees where it will afford winter quarters for the field mice. Rather than do this, hoe all of the grass and weeds away from the base of each tree so as to leave clean

Antiquity Of the Sausage.

The sausage dates back to the year
S97. II has been asserted that the
Creeks in the days Of Homer manu-
featured sausages, but this prehistoric
mixture had nothing in common with
our modern product. The ancient so
called sausage was composed of the
same materials which enter into the
makeup of the boudin OF the French
market and the blood pudding OF the
French Canadian The ancient sausage
was enveloped in the stomachs oil
goats. Not until the tenth century did
the sausage made of hashed pork be
come known. II was In or near the
year 1900 that. thanks to the introduc
ton into Germany OF cinnamon and
saffron. the sausages of Frankfort and
Strassburg acquired a universal repu

REPUTATION AS AN ASSET.

A good reputation is a mans best
trademark.
Reputation is not what a man thinks
of himself, but what others think of
him.
A mans estimate of himself isn't
apt to pass current
Most men would put the value far
too high.
Some few would put it too low.
Generally the estimate is in inverse
ratio to the value.
An unprecedented public may be
trusted to strike just level.
When il is announced that a new
miracle working device has been in
vented the world is skeptical.
If II is stated that Edison is the
inventor, skepticisn is changed to
faith.
In the reputation of the Wizard o!
Menlo the public puts its trslst.
