Many Of our orchards show very
seriously the evil results Of over.plant-
ing. As an outcome Of this common
error unsatisfactory results are obtained
when the best Of returns might reason
able be expected. There are three
probable reasons for this clnpe planting
A desire to secure as much fruit rs pos
sIble from . given piece Of land. Fail
ure on the part Of the owners to look
into the future and determine how
much freedom each tree will need when
It has reached its normal size. Lack
OF knowledge Of the buyer and all over
ambitious agent to sell a few.more trees.
We must constantly bear in mind that
we will probably have to continue
spraying for many years and in order
to do good work among the trees we
must have plenty Of room in which to
work. II is Impossible even In our
bright sunshine to grow first class well
colored fruit Of good sise In . crowded,
shady orchards The trees should for
this reason ifnone other be given plenty
Of room. The actual distance apart at
which trees must be planted Is govern
edslargely by their location, varieties,
systemof pruning and soil upon which
they grow. large spreading tree
upon deep, rich soil naturally requires
more room than an upright tree upon
= dry, poor piece 0fland. AS general
rule under ordinary conditions 1t IL
necessary to- aplsnt the trees from
twenty-five to forty feet; In our inter.
mountain valleys from twenty-five to

RANCH AND HOUSEHOLD.

The pollen Of the apple IL gummy
or sticky grain and It adheres, It II not
dry, It Il not like the pollen dust Of the
corn stalk and some other varieties Of
plants where It Ia blown by the wind,
says the Denver Field and Farm.
Those who have gone into the matter
fully doubt very much whether any OF
the pollen Of the apple or the pear is
carried by the wind. 1t would seem
then that we ought to plant our apple
orchards 40 ~ to get the greatest bene-
1T from cross pollenization and In order
to do this several things must be OBJ
served. We must plant the varieties
In such manner as not 10 have them In
solid blocks and instead Of alternating
one variety In one row or another va
rIety In another row It is better to have
four rows 30 they may be gathered at .
time. We should plant our varieties
four rows of each variety, then alter
nate with four rows Of another 10 that
you will get the matter Of cross poiii-
nation along with the practical matter
Of harvesting your fruit with the great
est economy of labor and convenience.
Another thing: We must plant varie-
ties side by side that we want to cross
pollinate one another, that will bloom
at the same period In the spring. Some
varieties Of apples bloom ten days or
two weeks ahead Of others. There is
the Roam Beauty and the Rails Ganet
which blossom long time after Jona-
than, Ben Davis aud Maiden Blush
and those drop their bloom before these
later one are out. The flowers and the
polllnatIon which are to fertilize may
not last more than twenty-four Of forty
eight houn 30 that we must have
varieties that bloom together.

SCHE MED TO k|DNAP
SON Of GOVERNOR
Convict Planned to Make His
Pardon Price of the Child'S
Ransom.

OAKLAND, May 5.--A plot to kid
nap the S-year-old son of Governor
Gillett was uueartbed at San Quentin
prison this morning. when it was found
that J. 4. Clifton, one of the most no.
torious criminals in the state, who is
serving time for attempting the life Of
Detective Hodgius in Oakland, Cal,
had completed arrangements with a
confederate on the outside to steal the
boy and hold him for ransom.
The price of the lad return to his
father was to have been Clifton s par.
don.
Clifton, in his prison cell, wroto a
letter TO pal, in which he outlined
the details TO kidpap the governor s
son, and after giving instructions in
this letter as TO how tho scheme should
be carried ont, he started out to form
an alliance with some of the other pris-
oners, SO that he could get the letter
outside the prison and to his pal with
out intervention on the part Of the
prison authorities.
Warden Hoyle was apprised Of Cliff
ton s plans, and a few nights ago he
descended on the prisoners cell and
found the tell-tsle letter. Clifton was
thrown into a dungeon, and there he
has remained ever since Governor
Glllett has been notified of the plot
