Borer. in Young Trees.

the tree, sometimes, especially III the
case Of young trees, almost entirely
girdling them, thus running the trees.
The methods of fighting both round
and fiat headed borers are much the
same. Two or three methods are
available for making the control of
borers more easy. In case of older
trees, probably the most important
method is by mounding. that is heap
ing up little mound of earth around
the base of the tree. This forces the
insect to deposit its eggs higher on the
tree so that the worm will be located
higher. 1t is much easier to level
this mound OF earth down around the
tree to find the borer than to have to
dig away the soil when it is left level
However, mounding may not be prac-
ticable in very stony land. In case Of
younger trees, the best method is to
wrap them with wood veneer wrap
per. And mound very small amount
of earth around these wrappers. This
makes 1t very dimcult for the parent
OF the borer to get its eggs deposited
in the trunk Of the tree. In sections
where the borers are rather numer-
GUS, while this practice OF wrapping
should be followed, it should not be
wholly depended upon, but the exam.
lining for the borer should also be
done. II the wooden wrappers

BY HUBERT PAUL.

The Little Gray Lady had left our
boarding house!
} It was all the more astonishing be-
cause she had lived there, SO Mrs. Pot
ter said, for fourteen years. She had
occupied that little half bare room Of
hers on the top story nearly all OF

OF US young fellows had been children

would ever leave. She went out every
morning at $3.50 to her work-she was
cashier in some Office downtown-and
came back promptly at six: she had
no friends; she never went out In
the evening. Some of US, taking pity
on the lonely little middle-aged spin
ster, had sought her friendship, but
she had always amiably and politely
discouraged US.
We looked at each other in aston
aabment that evening at the dinner ta-
BILE when Mrs. Potter told US. No, the
Little Gray Lady had given no explain
alton, She had merely said. very
sweetly, that she was goins away. had
packed her trunk and gone, giving
some address in modest uptown
street Mrs. Potter had hoped that
she might be permitted to call. The
Little Gray Lady had evaded the
proposition with the adroitness born
OF fourteen years of evasion of all
personal matters. Then she had
driven away in cab. and that was
the only thing that had seemed IN

Some people cut off portions Of the
vine with clusters on it and place the

Prof. Flinders Petrie, who is prob.

EASY TO GET RICHES
SIMPLY MATTER OF SLEEPING
WHILE MONEY AccUMULATEs.
Some Difficulties In the Way, But a.
Matter OF Theory the Thing 10
About az Simple az Can 2F
30 Made. 1s

We have heard much OF get rich
quick" schemes, but few of us have
found them to be of practical value.
They are fine ideas, but they do not
work. Now, a nice get rich slow
scheme ought to succeed. A few days
ago man gave certain city thou
sand dollars and told that city not to
use 1t for $50 years. At the end OF
that time it will be something more
than nineteen million dollars If the
man who told the story figured 1t
right. There could not be an easier
way to be millionaire than that. Just
hang around $50 years and the money
is yours. -~ Sr
or course none of us could possibly
wait so long for 80 much money un.
less we were asleep, and that Is just
the point. Somebody ought to ix up
an easy sort of near poison which
would put us to sleep and the thing
would be done. That should not be
difficult. Such thing must have been
done at one time. because we all know
that whole kingdom was asleep for
ever so long, and might still be asleep
II foolish youth had not wakened
Beauty, and nobody else would stay
asleep after Beauty was awake. And
even in our own time, or at least much
closer to 1t, there was Rip Van Wrinkle.
who slept for 20 years. If he had not
been SO shiftless, and had put little
money in the bank before he went to
sleep he might have been comfortable
for the rest Of his life.
And so. If everybody who had a
thousand dollars would put it in the
bank and take some sleep generator
he could wake up In $50 years or 200
years or hundred years. according to
how rich he wanted to be, and would
be millionaire. Even II person did
not have thousand dollars to begin
with he could in the end have few
millions. OF course If everybody was
going to be rich 1t might not be so
much fun, but we would get used to it
after while. There would not be
any trouble about getting somebody
to stay awake and take care OF the
banks. for great many people have
a great many more would not take
chances Of losing what they had even
for s20.000.000
There Is just one serious drawback
to the scheme, and that may make it
impossible. What are we going to do
about the cost of living? Two hun
dred and fifty years is long time
and the cost of living would grow SO
much in that time that s19.000.000
would look like 10 cents instead Of
like thousand dollars. And no pow
er on earth can ever put the cost of
living to sleep.-New York Times.

Ia Praise Of the klmono.

Among the details OF the wardrobe
which have apparently, though trans
ported from afar, come to stay with
US for good, there may be noted the
kimono, thin and light and graceful.
In silk it rolls conveniently into little
or no space, and SO it is most con-
venient when travelling. for 1t can find
a little corner in the dressing case.
On arrival at a hotel or friends
house, it can be shaken out, and one
slips into it from the street gown to
make a comfortable toilet without the
trouble Of getting the big trunk open,
as one would have to do with heavy
dressing gown of the ordinary variety
packed away. Even If one cannot at.
ford silk kimono, there are tidy sub
stitutes in lowered muslin with dress
ing jackets to match.

FLOWING DEEP FOR ORCHARD
It 10 Of Utmost Importance to Exam
Inc Shoots Of Young Trees for
Harmful Little Borer. fl.

In planting a.peach orchard the
ground should be plowed deep. fol-
lowed with sub-soil plow in the same
furrow. the deeper the ground is bro
ken up the better. Before planting,
it Is of the utmost Importance to ex'
anime the shoots of the young trees
for the borer. Generally nurserymen
send out peach trees without taking
out the borer. A tree planted with
borer in 1t is sure to die in a few
years, very often in its third year aft
or planting. 1t puts the beginner in
the uncertainty to know what Is the
cause of the death Of his trees. They
often look as If they were suffering
with the yellows, while it is the borer
killing the tree. Two years ago We
had three trees that to all appearance
had the true yellows. When taking
out the trees we found two and three
borers in the crotch Of the roots where
1t was impossible to see any signs OF
borer
The trees should be examined every
spring and fall. and the borer taken
out with the knife. " q
A peach orchard should be started
low. The young trees should be cut
back when planted from Is to "a
inches with not a side branch on
them. They will put out side branches
and make a low, bushy tree for five
or six years. After that, they become
large and high, bearing fruit almost
from the ground to the top of the
tree For the first three years, the
new wood should be cut back from
third to one-half. After that 1t re.
quires not SO much cutting back. Only
where leading branch takes posses
sion Of the entire growth such lead
er should be cut back on level with
the head of the tree. All the dead
wood should be taken out after each
crop. 49, A.

Quantities Of Water.

Consider the kind of plant you are
watering. Soft-stemmed kinds. espe-
cially those with large leaves, will
require much more water than hard
wooded, slow.growing kinds. While
the former easily recover from drouth,
the hard-wooded suffer permanently
from extremes.
The seasons and time Of day should
also be watched. Plants not in active
growth should be watered sparingly
until they have regained their foliage.
Watering in the evening. just before
dark greatly aids fungous diseases,
