Under the old system we 60

we furnish a man and team for
three dollars day. Now, when
we pay our tax IN cash, it will
take a dollar and a half to pay a

Now does it not look as If the

Interesting Feures on Savings.

There is marked disparity be
tween the statistics published
some months ago, from the Comp
troller OF Currency, and those
just gwen out by the National
Monetary Commission regarding
savings bank facilities.
AS both sets of figures are of.
ficial, 1t ought to be explained
that those Of the Monetary Com
mission are the latter, and were
gathered from 18,245 banks while
the Comptroller, seems to report
only mutual savings bank, as he
speaks of only 1903 institutions.
The date of the latter report Is
December 6, 1908, while the Com
missions report gives statistics
as Of April 20, 1909. On the Lat.

ROOTS OF TREES EXPOSED.

A Pottstown physician, whose
apple and peach trees, '1arge and
small" we're damaged by bo-ers,
dug away the earth, going down
as far as the large roots; removed
the borers, scraped the trees that
were injured, and washed the
trunks with strong solution OF
Sanax. He then wrote to Pro-
fessor Fl. A. Surface, the State
Zoologist, Harrisburg, inqulring
whether the frost would injure
the trees if the large roots remain
exposed. He also asks as to the
best fertilizer tor fruit trees.
Professor Surface answers these
queries as follows: &.
"I'his will depend upon the
temperature, but if 1t reaches
zero Fahr.), there will be danger
Of killing them. About twelve or
fourteen degrees below zero is
supposed to be the maximum
cold that the peach tree will stand
under normal or fair conditions
without injury. | would by all
means advise you to replace the
earth about these trees, mound
ing it up to the height of several
inches around the trunk. II
would be well to mix some sta
BILE dressing with the earth which
you replace, so that the trees will
have some nitrogen fertilizer, or
plant food, to induce the ready
formation of new roots there.
'The subject of the proper
fertilizer for fruit trees is so com
plex that I must at this time re-
fer you to Professor r. L. Watts,
State College, Pa, and you may
depend upon what he says; but I
can tell you that a general rule
is to keep the trees growing while
they are young, or, in other
words, before they reach bearing.
l have used nitrogen fertilizer for
this. After they commence to
bear, reduce the nitrogen, which
promotes woody growth, and IN
crease the phosphorlc acid and
potash. The subject of fertilizer
in the orchard Is of fundamental
Importance. Trees must be fed
if we expect them to live. If the
peach tree is properly and suffi.
ciently fed, and properly and suf-
ticiently pruned back during each
dormant season. and kept free
from pests, it can be kept grow
ing profitably for q score Of years.

CASH VS.. WORK.
Farmer" Discusses the Road Tax Ques.
tion, and Favors the Old Way of
Working Out the Tax.

EDITOR NEwS;-The Item ap.
pearlng in last weeks Democrat
headed ''That Cash Road Tax"
What 1t means to the townships
retaining it, and setting forth
some weak points III working the
roads under the old system of
work tax and under the present
cash tax system, all points that
glitter like gold.
Now, Mr.. Editor DemocI at,
you speak about our money being
squandered under the present
work system. 1t Is to be ac-
knowledged that we do not al
ways get value for the dollar
credited to the tax; but that IS
not the fault of the system of
work tax. The whole fault IS
with the Road Boss. If we earn
so, 60, rs cents, or a dollar, we
should have credit, regardless of
size or age. Let the Road Bosses
use the publlc's money the same
as they use their own. Let them
try to get value for it, and then
we will not have any ground for
complaint of the money beng
squandered. 1t is all right for
us to get out of the old rut, but
we must be careful that we do
not get into a worse rut when we
get into the new one.
Now, Mr.. Editor, it Is not our
purpose to lnslnuate that the men
who make our laws are not smart
men; but the fact should not be
overlooked that the same system
will not work to advantage in all
parts of our State alike. Part of
our state is billy and mountain
Gus, and part of 1t is low and
level. In some places the ma
terial necessary to make a good
road Is more accessible and
abundant than in other places.
We doubt whether the Editor of
the Democrat ever threw a shov.
elful Of earth on the road, or
stone out, unless he happened to
kick 1t out with his foot.
y We appreciate the States WILL
ingness to help as to make good
roads, but we think the farmers
In their respective locaities-the
men who are mosl directly inter.
ested In the road--should have
something to say about the con.
struction of the roads. We farm.
ers do not claim to be smart"
but If we do not know that we
want in the way OF roads--who

Now, let us go back a little bit.

pend the money doing little

would be more directly benefited.
