Thinning Out for Quality.
In our lower valleys very little
pruning is necessary after the tree is
shaped. which should be at three years
after planting, except in cases Of un-
usual growth. If the tee becomes too
bushy a slight thinning out is nee
essary.
Timing out the fruit is very i'm
portant- Only one apple should grow
at a place. and If spaces Of from four
to six inches are left between fruits,
much better results are obtained.
This work is tedious, but viii pay
many times over in size and quality
and may save the tree from breaking
under too heavy a load
Good Staple Crop.
For best results there must always
be plenty of moisture IN the ground
available for the apple, especially the
late ripening varieties. Every farm
should grow apples Of some kind. II
the summer season is too hot and
long for the late apples grow the

suited to the late apple no better or

A Valuable Lesson.
These old orchards were no doubt
planted by the early mission fathers
who established the old chain Of mis-
siOns, and came from seed they brought
with them This is also the source, no
doubt, Of our old pear trees and first
mission grapes, some of which are
still growing in our own part Of the
Yeuey. The longevity Of such trees
once established here is thus proved
beyond a doubt, and this fact should
be a valuable guide to future plant
ing. Certainly these trees and vines
are adapted here. and have survived
much in the way Of dr0uth, disease, AMI
insect pests, and should prove valuable
in the propagation Of future stock.

Helen Adams Keller, the wonderful blind and deaf girl who has become famous throughout the world because of her triumph over in11rmIttes. will celebrate her thtrty-tL1rd birthday to-. day. It has been per5istently report ed that Miss Keller has been engaged to teach Prince Jaime, the deaf and dumb son of King Alfonso of Spain. Miss Keller" said a recent dispatch from Madrid, -shas arrived at the Roy al Palace, and during the next few months she will teach the unfortu- nate little Prince in the way she taught herself years ago. This re- port has since been completely denied, and friends of Miss Keller declare she will spend the summer in Massachu- setts, except for a lecture trip to.

 Miss Keller was born in Tuscumfia. Ala, June 27, 1880, the daughter of Captain Arthur HI. and Kate Adams Keller. She is descended on her fa- the-'s side from Alexander Spottswood, a colonial governor of Virginia, and Adams and Everett families of New England. She has been deaf and blind since the age of nineteen months. At 1 the age of seven she was placed in 1 the care of Miss Anne Mansfield Sul- Iivar. and under her loving tuition tho

THE CIRCULATION LIAR.

Editor Kelley Of the Chicago Tri-
bune in an address at Baltimore, Md,
delivered before an assembly of "Ad-
vertisers," took occasion to justly rap
the newspaper circulation liar"
There Is no doubt that some news
papers largely initiate their circulation
in order to deceive advertisers as to
their value for advertising purposes.
There may be many of these newspa-
pers and they cannot be too severely
condemned. II is not as hard a job as
Mr.. Kecley says for an advertiser or
an association of advertisers to detect
those, If right methods are adopted.
The circulation liar is not so skillful
as rule, that he can avoid detection
If the books and other circulation evi-
dence is open to the investigator An
honest investigation Will always show
any discrepancies that exist between a
claimed and actual circulation. OF
course, If no evidence is furnished no
books open to inspection, the circula-
tion liar is in a measure fortified
against complete detection, but in such
cases the advertiser has the right and
should exercise it of scaling down the
claimed circulation to a reasonable
figure, and an equal right not TO ad.
vertise in the sheet at all. Advertis-
ers cannot long be victimized by cirr
Culation liars unless they like it. Ad.
vCrtiseTs insert their advertisements
TO bring results, not for fun nor for
their health.
The circulation liar, as Mr. Kelley
says, is not as numerous as he used
70 be and is growing less as the years
so by. He can be spared Honest
journalism is injured by him and the
sooner his occupation is gone, the bet
ter it will be. He would all the sooner
disappear from view If some advertis
ers did not encourage him in order tc
use him as a buffer" against legiti
mate rates of honest newspapers.
