OUR BEST APPLE TREE.
The Frazer Of the WaIIa WaIIa Valley,

The Frazer Of the WaIIa WaIIa Valley.
Wash, Is tho Worlds Champion.
Experienced growers predict that
the Frazer apple tree, growing in the
Walla Walla valley, near Walla Walla.
Wash, southwest of Spokane. will
yield between $50 and 200 bushels of
fruit this year, thus breaking it's rec
ord Of 12G1a boxes in 1907. the highest
production from a single tree known
anywhere in the world. The tree bore
seventy boxes in 1906, forty-two boxes
in 1908 and forty-five boxes in 1909.
More than 500 barrels Of fruit have
been picked from its limbs since ii
came into bearing in the spring of
1871.
The tree was grown without irriga
ton from a Seeding planted by Can
trel r. Frazer in 1866. two years after
he settled in the valley. 1t is forty
two feet in height, and its branches
spread fifty-seven feet from tip to tip.
The trunk is seven feet in circumfer-
ence at the base and measures six feet
six inches just below the first limb
which is four feet from the ground
and measures four feet seven inches
The tree is sound and healthy despite
the fact that it has produced fruit
every season for nearly forty years.

The corn crop is an important factor
IN Mexican agriculture. Much OF the
land is farmed by renters. In Du-
range. for instance. the renter signs
a~contract to give the landowner one
half the crop clear Of all expenses.
The corn is husked by men who get
50 cents each in Mexican money per
day. BY the time all expenses are
paid the renter has little more than
enough corn to last him until spring.
Then he is compelled to buy OF the
landowner at an advance of 10 to 60
per cent over prices he receives for
his crop of the fall. Prices in Mex
leo are around 60 cents buShel In
the fall and 90 cents in the spring.

MILLET AS A CATCH CROP.
Useful to Follow Another or Replace
One That Has Been Destroyed.

One That Has Been Destroyed.
When a catch crop becomes neces-
sary one Of the first that is thought Of
IS millet. This crop does not have a
high feeding value, as it is apparently
too rich in Oil. At the same time it is
very useful to follow another crop or
as a catch crop to replace one that has
been destroyed. 1t natures quickly
and. in combination with other feeds,
has an undoubted value.
There are many varieties. and in gen.
eral these varieties constitute one of
the most important groups Of food
plants. as they are the staple diet Of
about one-third Of the worlds human
population. Ia the old world they are
grown as cereals. but in America al
most entirely as forage. The true mil
let is sometimes called the broom corn
millet. Another variety is the fox tail
millet, and still others are the barn
yard or japanese, the African. the Chi
nese, the Indian and pearl or cat tail
millet. The fox tail variety includes
the German and Hungarian millets,
which are most commonly grown in
this state.
For several years past there seems to
have been a comfortable increase in
interest in millet as Il pasture crop in
western Kansas. When sown for such
purpose about twice the usual
amount Of seed should be used. AS it
is a heavy feeder and draws upon the
nitrogen element of the soil 1t is said
to be hard on land. Those soils which
are best adapted for it's growth are
rich in humus. Swamp lands or slough
lands and muck soils which can be
drained so as not to be too wet are best
for this crop, though it may be sue
cessfully grown on clay soils which do
not get too dry.
Clay soils are not good for millet be-
cause they lack in humus. The seed
must not be sown before the ground
has become warm. as they will either
fail to terminate or will remain in
the ground so long that the weeds get
too great a start. If the land is rather
thin more seed should be sown. 1t
can be either broadcasted or drilled.
but in rich land a smaller quantity Of
seed may be used. as the plants will till
better.-kansas Farmer.

The young woman is fortunate in
marrying man who Is evidently care
full and saving while he is to be con-
graduated on securing a sensible and
charming bride.
When girl can sew she can certain
ly save half the amount she would pay
otherwise for clothes.
Theorists claim that only one-fourth
OF the income should be spent for
rent.
When the family is small there is no
economy in buying any kind OF eata-
bles in large quantities. Personally l
find purchasing food in small quanti-
ties the better plan. A person gets a
greater variety in this way and so
does not tire of the one article bought
in quantity.
Especially is this true of the fruit.
AZ is better economy to pick out single
kinds and pay trifie more than to
order by the quart or dozen am
speaking of the larger fruit and find
one or two defective because not eaten
at once. Better buy daily and get the
choicest.
The same rule will apply to cereals.
Some folks claim that it is more eco
nomical to buy in bulk-that one pays
for the cartons when bought packed.
Granted so, but the extra cost is moth.
ing compared to the possible loss OF
sereals purchased by the dozen pounds
for they may become stale, perhaps
damp, and possibly attract mice.
Unless a woman does much baking a
three and a half pound bag of -four is
enough at time. The cotton bag con-
tanning five pounds of sugar is to be
recommended and two-pound bag OF
salt is sufficient.
Spices and condiments in ten cent
tins are convenient and will keep fresh
They come cheaper, too. in the end
than the loose packages. If many po
tatoes are eaten then it is cheaper to
buy basket at time instead of a
small measure.
Pickles and sauce, if liked. may be
bought in large bottles, because the
small one cost more in proportion, to
the quantity.
There is no real economy in buying
butter in large quantities when the
family is small.
am aware that my opinions are not
shared by theorists in house hold econ
omy generally, but I am speaking from
the experience OF thirty years practi
cal housekeeping for small family.
With foods that do not perish 1t Is
often an economy to buy in quantity.
For instance IL one can buy canned
goods at a sale and feel convinced
that the contents are not inferior tc
the same article at regular prices. a
small stock may be secured.
Again IL woman does much sew
ing there will be saving of money by
taking advantage of the notion sale:
in the department stores. Cotton
tapes, hooks and eyes, ETC., may be
bought by the dozen, but in the case O
the average edibles, l repeat, buy II
small quantities.

is not so easily disposed Of.

important that the stock and the scion
belong to the same or a closely related
species If this is not the case the
union is apt to be unsatisfactory and
the tree becomes poorly developed and

Under average conditions spring is

In exceptional seasons. with a favora-
