ney, was called upon at recent ban
quet given to lawyers and judges. He
said: Il was recently trying a case
to foreclose a mortgage given by pro-
moters CT new insurance company
which had failed. | had as one of my
witnesses a man named Kelley who
had made a friend of a yellow dog
while taking a morning walk. The
dog followed him to court, and wher
the case was adjourned at noon the
dog was waiting for Kelley. The at
torney of the insurance people asked
him If he was trying to steal the dog
Kelley thought a moment and theL
answered blandly: Yes, I'm going tc
steal the dog, and donate him to yout
clients. They are capable Of trying tc
start an insurance company on a vel
low dog"

burs, containing generally three large

remain in the burs until they drop to

1t an advantage over all others on

the tree. Paragon scions grated on

CULTIVATION OF PEACH TREE
Should Be Kept Thrifty and Healthy
and Care Used to Conserve All
Moisture Possible.

1t is very essential to take the very
best possible care of the young trees.
They should be kept thrifty and
healthy, and all necessary care given
them to conserve the moisture and
plant food in the soil
Early in the spring, as soon as the
soil will permit, it should be stirred
to inches deep; thus, if the trees
have been planted as deeply as they
should, blowing this depth will cause
them to produce a deep root system
which will not be Injured as quickly
by freezing or drought. After this
blowing the fertilizer should be APP
piled and worked with a disk harrow
or cultivator.
Frequent civilizations should be
given with the cultivator or disk har-
row, running deep enough to form a
good soil mulch, and prevent subse-
ouent baking or crusting Of the sur
race and prevent loss of soil moisture
by evaporation. Thorough culture
kills all the weeds, which are a con-
slant drain on the soil moisture and
plant food, and also assists in de-
composing and liberating any plant
food which may have been turned I'M
der.
