An authority on horticulture writ
ing for the Kalispel Bee gives his ex-
perience in tree planting as follows:
"This is the season for planting
trees and the observance of few
common sense rules will insure sat
isfactory result. Plant as soon as the
ground is dry enough, late planting
is unsatisfactory as tree that is
planted after the sap has started will
make but little, if any, growth the
first year.
Don't expose the roots to the air or
sun. A good method is to Wheel the
trees in near where they are to be
planted. Take them up about ten at
time and place in a barrel half filled
with water, put the barrel on a drag
or wagon and take the trees out one
at time as they are planted. Dig
large holes and don't put manure in
the holes or near the roots. If ma
nure is used put it on top of the
ground after the tree is planted. If
the soil is shallow dig deep hole and
fill it with rich soil before setting
the tree. Set the tree about two in
ches deeper than it stood in the nur-
sery as shown by the soil mark on
the trunk of the tree. Don't plant a
tree of any kind that is more than
two years old as transplanting re-
tards the growth of trees in proper
tios to age, the older trees being slow
er in starting. Put the earth hard
and firm around the roots and as
soon as roots are covered pour in
from five to ten gallons of water,
then go on to the next tree allowing
the water to soak away before filling
the hole with earth. Pack the earth
in solidly but leave loose earth on
top to the depth of three or four in
ches. Don't use any water on top of
the soil as this will cause it to bake
and crack.
In planting shade trees cut the
limbs back about half way, but with
fruit trees the top should be reduced

GOOD ADVICE TO THOSE WHO
CONTEMPLATE TREE CULTURE
HERE ARE A FEW COMMON SENSE RULES WHICH SHOULD BE
OBSERVED BY NovlcES WHO INTEND GROWING
FRUIT AND SHADE TREES THIS SPRING

by cutting out the extra limbs. Cut
off everything but about four limbs,
evenly distributing around the trunk
of the trees. These limbs should be
left full length. In planting fruit
trees it is we'll to plant but few
varieties and stick to the varieties
that have been tested.
Apple trees should be planted from
twenty to twenty-four feet apart each
way"

THE EVENING STORY

sat down beside his wife and began
TO tell her.
He had stolen, stolen systematically
for months, taking hundred here and
hundred there TO speculate with, in
hopes of break ia Copper. And
room the books were TO be audited
and the assets counted; discovery was
inevitable unless he could replace S4,-

the nick of time, for he had cleared
$4,000 that afternoon when the stock
broke. He would gorto. the directors,

mercy.
And Marcia, sitting listening dumb
ly, all her world shattered. could only
acquiesce. The directors would not
be likely to prosecute. With their
own paltry savings, few hundreds
merely, they would face the world
anew.
The following morning Brownson
stuffed the six thousand into his
pockets and went down to the bank.
He had resolved first to replace his
offerings; he would take the two
thousand to the directors later He
managed to replace the four thousand
during the course OF the morning.
Suddenly the auditors appeared.
The books were investigated. Brown
son saw Peters suddenly collapse and
his suspicious rose to certainty.
Peters had been gambling with the
the same slump that had rescued him.

Suddenly one of the auditors utter

went over to his assistant. They be.

Very faint and weak from the strain
Brownson went to the great safe. He
glanced back. They were looking
away. He slipped something from his
coat pocket: then rose with an ex-
clamation OF surprise.
Here they are. sir" he cried tri
umphantly
The money was intact then; at
worst II would be suggested that there
had been an error In bookkeeping.
Thank Cod" shouted the manager.
Brownson saw Peters staring at him
with gray face and sunken, incredulous
eyes. He had saved the honor Of his
superior, and, by this act, overted his
own ruin and the need of confession.
Fate had drawn her balance even.
