PRUNING Fruit Trees,

Until apple trees begin to bear the

back annually TO make them short

fruit without breaking down. After
fruiting begins not much pruning is
necessary, except to thin nut surplus
growth and to keep the tree symme-

down, and not from the bottom up.

One of the most pleasant days
have spent abroad was the ex-
cursion to Chantilly with Miss
Rost. It was a pleasure to be
with and talk with someone from
home. Chantilly, twenty miles
from Paris, is a small town of
4500 people once famous as the
residence of the Condos. The
Chateau structure is georgeously
and artistically decorated
and furnished. The park and
forest of over 5000 acres was
really like paradise on this charm
ing spring day. Wild flowers
were in abundap ce, everything
is in almost peri ect order.

The tomb of Napoleon is to al
most everyone the chief center
of interest in Paris. 1t is located
in the Hotel des Invalides- the
word hotel as used in Paris means
home-is a huge affair contain
ing an artillery and armory, mu-
scum and the large church of the
Invalids. 1t covers an area of
about 80 acres. In 1910 Louis
XIV founded this home in order
to assure a happy life to military
men who, old, crippled or infrm,
found themselves without re-
sources after having marched
under the flag or given their
blood for their country. In
the museum | saw a most re-
markable collection of arms, flags,
armor, trophies, souvenirs, etc.
l saw the armours worn by many
of the kings of France, and
among the souvenirs of Napoleon
are a bench from st. Helena, a

at the battle of Marengo and the
well known Napoleon hat, and
the bride of his horse at Waterloo.
