HORTICULTURAL NOTES.

Pock your apples honestly and put
your name and address on each barrel
or box.
When a 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.
When trees are affected with peach
yellow they should be exterminated,
root and branch.
A fortune is waiting the propagation
of a hardy red raspberry. But quality
must not be sacrificed for hardness.
No fruit should be allowed to go to
waste as long as there is possibility
Of making cider, vinegar and infer
mented grape juice.
Very few pears are at their best if
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.

THANKSGIVING DAY
canada's Day Of Thanks a Month Ear
iier Than in the United States,

For some reason better known to
the Canadians themselves than to the
people on this side of the line. our
Canadian cousins celebrated their
Thanksgiving a month or more earlier
than we do. 1t may be that the Cana.
dian turkey had become impatient. and
sounded note of warning. or If NAV
be that the frost on the pumpkin" de.
clared itself. But whatever the reason
their Thanksgiving day Is past. # NAV
have been that the reasons for giving
thanks so much earlier than we do
were pushing themselves so hard and
SO fast that the Canadians were
ashamed to postpone the event. They
have had reasons, and good ones. too
for giving thanks. Their great broad
areas of prairie land have Welded 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
cutting of the melon" Probably the
western portion of Canada. comprising
the provinces of Manitoba, Saskatche.
wan and Alberta, have the greatest
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.
clally generous. The weather condi.
tions were perfect, and during the
ripening and harvesting period, there
was nothing to interfere And now it
was we'll it 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-
piished. There have been low gen.

THE whole population of the West

and sends out 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-

blessings have flown, and the good

Marrow and Distant Planting.

This is not entirely new industry.
but it has never received an impetus
until the government took hold of the
matter recently.
The demand for this product is
growing. There are number of
varieties of willows, but those adapted
to basket making thrive best where
they are not shaded. They do not
necessarily require marshy lands, but
because they need a good, rich soil
and cannot tolerate shade, they are
generally found where other trees do
not exist.
Rods grown on moist, rich. we'll
drained bottom land are more flexible,
tougher and less branchy than those
grown on undrained marshy land.
These trees will thrive on land that
will produce very poor quality Of
grass.

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-
ure 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
growSwill conserve the food supply of

Gardening Story.

A very interesting gardening story
comes from Swedesboro, N. j. Walter
Stanton has leased IS acres of land,
composed mainly of river dredgings.
1t is ideal soil physically and is rich
in nitrogen. The water table lies only
three feet below the surface. The en-
tire area was planted this year in DO
tatoes, muskmelons, tomatoes and
small plats of few other vegetables.
Mineral elements have been applied
freely, while very little nitrogen has
been used. The land was also lined
previous to planting. The first crop
harvested was potatoes, a plat of 1.91
acres yielding 1850 five-eighths bushel
baskets.

pods were allowed to ripen on the
plants, as this would have shortened
the blooming season. During part of
the remarkably long Towering period,
we had only scattering bloom because
the plants were kept pruned in order
to give the best results during the
cool seasons. We gave the plants a
protection of manure and straw from
December to March.
At the end of the following May,
after the plants had lowered for two
months and the blossoms had begun
to run small. we removed all branches
as long as eight inches, and by June

The next day they were picked clean
