A mammoth spectacular production,
entitled, "Ohio Pioneer Days" will be
the nightly free feature at the Ohio
State Fair Columbus, Aug. 26-3i, in
elusive. II is fitting that at this time
this grand historical pageant should
be produced, inasmuch as the cente-
nary celebration Of the permanent es-
tablishment 1f the Buckeye capital
will be held in conjunction with the
State Fair
The first setting shows a peaceful
scene of activity-settlers at work in
their fields and timber land. their
good housewives busy about the cab
ins. the sturdy blacksmith and helper
busy at their forge; friendly Indians
lounge about the trading post
A dispatch rider is seen to approach
the fort, riding hard-leaves orders
for detachment of troops to proceed
west to quell an Indian uprising. The
courier dashes on into the settlement,
leaves the mail at the store, changes
horses and is of again.
Friendly Indians are seen quarrel
ing with the sentries at the fort and
show much dissatisfaction over the
rations issued TO them. They are fin
ally ordered away by the officers and
proceed sullenly to their tepees. Now
the great gates of the stockade open
wide and company of troops march
es out and on through the settlement,
rhaArad hv tho te
lost to view in the distance. The In
dians, seeing the troops leave, send
two Of their number to follow them,
and they can be seen skulking
through timber and fields. Soon they
return and amid much confusion the
tepees are taken down, the horses
hitched to drags, and soon all OF the
Indians proceed through the village
amid the taunts OF the settlement
boys, who call after them not to come
back.
A long prairie schooner is now
seen approaching the settlement from
the west; settlers come in from the
fields to greet the strangers; the out
riders report having met the soldiers
and later the Indians, and indicate
that they are suspicious Of the Red
skins. The tired travellers decide to
spend the night at the settlement,
and commence unhitching their team
Of oxen. Now, far away in the west,
an Indian fire signal is seen. II is
soon answered from the south and
again from another point. The people
OF the settlement exhibit considerable
uneasiness and little knobs of men
are seen together Watching the sig

HORTICULTURAL
Azc-,aW NOTES

Fruit can be harvested at one-half
the cost from low-headed trees.
Fall is the best season for planting
all deciduous trees and bushes.
Cherries will not thrive planted on
low, moist or cold, heavy soils.
Any good dry land that will grow the
regular farm crops will grow cherries.
The future of apple growing has
never looked so brightNas It does to-
day.
The fungicidal value of .lime-sulphur
is increased by the addition of arsen-
ate OF lead.
Grapes are apt to overbear and 1t
Is never safe to let them set all the
fruit they will.
Healthy foliage held late in the
season enables the trees to build
stronger buds for the next crop.
Arsenate of lead which is held over
from the year before will be good II It
has not dried out and become hard
lump.
Where the San Jose scale is trou-
bIesome the currant is Objectionable
in the orchard as 1t affords a great
harbor for these pests.
Don't expect a small knapsack
sprayer viii do the work for large fruit
trees. 1t is not large OF strong
enough. You need barrel pump.
The common Bordeaux mixtures,
sometimes called the 4-4-40 mixture, is
composed of pounds bluestone,
pounds quicklime and 40 gallons OF
water
For scab. leaf spot, brown rot, mil
dew and leaf blight, use the Bordeaux
mixture before leaves or blossoms
open on apple. peach, pear, plum or
cherry trees.
If cold wet spell comes when ap.
pies are in bloom. spray with bordeaux
mixture to prevent scab. This fung-
Gus is always most destructive In a

GOOD SOIL FOR AN ORCHARD
Must Be Prepared Sufficiently Deep
and Drained SO That Roots May
Reach into SubsolI.

First of all, the soil must be we'll
drained and prepared sufficiently
deep so that the roots may reach deep
into the subsoil Second, the sur
face soil must be cultivated frequent
ly and rotation OF cover crops and
catch crops employed SO that a suf-
ficient amount of plant food will be
made available TO promote a rapid,
healthy growth rather than forcing
the growth Of the trees by the use Of
manures and fertilizers rich In nitro
gen. In some rare instances the soil
may be deficient IN plant food, and
the intelligent use of mineral plant
foods will prove very beneficial.
II is when the orchards begin to
produce large crops OF fruit that the
demands for plant food must be met
il profitable crops of superior fruit
are secured. At this time the roots
of the trees have taken possession OF
practically all OF the SOIL and have
utilized the larger portion of the
available plant food so that the ad-
dtion of manure or fertilizer is es-
sential.
The function of the soil in furnish
ing the trees with nourishment is an
exceedingly complex one. and there
are certain well-defined laws that
must be kept in mind for improvement
and maintenance of the fertility Of
the soil that is occupied by the trees.
Some orchardists advocate sod mulch,
others depend upon cultivation and
the liberal use OF fertilizers and barn
manures, others cover crops and min
eral fertilizers as a means OF improv-
ing and maintaining the fertility Of
orchard soils.
The fact that no two soils required
the same line of treatment has caused
confusion Of ideas in the manage
ment of orchard soils.

The Editor OF a Democratic paper
writes:
Thanks for your book on Proposed
Constitutional Amendments" wish to
congratulate you upon your able dis.
cussion of each amendment While in
the main II is pretty conservative, II
contains much valuable information
which the people should have before
voting on these momentous issues. Il
Is generally agreed that in the coming
amendment election many people will
not understand what they are voting
on, and the result will likely be an
abortion for which they may think
they can repent at their leisure"
A Republican newspaper writer
says;
II regard the manual Of Proposed
Amendments to the Constitution of
Ohio as absolutely the most valuable
document that has been issued in this
State within my knowledge. only re-
gret that so few voters OF the State
will have opportunity to read 1t and
digest its contents"

The new paper sanitary tumb-

ought to be hailed with delight
by the modern housekeeper
especially at preserving times.
These little vessels are made
from spruce pulp. They are
treated with aseptic qualities at
the mill before being packed in
cartons and shipped to the
various stores and in these car
tons sold to the housekeeper, so
the only thing she has to do is to
break the seal and the jelly jars
are ready for use.
They are so inexpensive that
they may easily be thrown away
at the end of the winter season,
says the Philadelphia Times.
Each tumbler is treated with a
wax process which enables the
jelly to slip out as easily as from
A glass jar.
Little round lids come for
covering the vessels and slip in

The hot liquor can be poured
directly into these paper tumb-
lers.
