LOCATING LAZY TREES.

Under the heading of Locating
Lazy Trees" the Fruit Grower and
Farmer, st. Joseph, Mo-, has printed
the following article which should be
interesting to the readers OF The
Ranch:
elm the extensive peach orchards
of Mr.. j. III. Hale, of Glastonbury,
Conn.,, Prof. A. d. Shamel is con-
Quoting series of tests along the line
of determining the regularity of fruit
ing similar to the trials be has made
in the citrus orchards of California.
His results show now what is fully
established with growers of oranges,
grape fruit and lemons, that to pre-
serve the strain of stock pure and to
get the best of every tree. the bud
wood selected must be from the best
bearing branches of the best bearing
trees. With an assistant, Mr.. Pom
eroy, he is now taking census of
the eight varieties of peaches in the
Hale orchards, and getting data for
applying his theorem to deciduous
fruits such as the peach. Mr.. Hale,
in budding for the peach which bears
his name, followed the same idea.
Professor Shameland his aids lave
'for four years visited the Hale or
chard and carefully picked and weigh
ed the yield of twelve trees of each
of the eight varieties. They find that
the trees which are heavy bearers one
year always bear heavily regularly,
and that there is not light year and
a heavy one, as is commonly sup
posed. His findings show that an off
spring tree, under the same condl-
tions, should bear the same proper
ton of fruit as the parent tree and of
the same quality. This may seem
elf-evident to those not acquainted
with orchard work, but it seems
that other ideas have been rooted in
the minds of orchardmen, and mis-
takes have been made accordingly.

on the farm but what of our girls?
Is it not just as important to keep
them away from the cities? Can we
longer take it for granted that our
daughters will contentedly remain at
home until Prince Charming comes
along? Surely we must have learned
by this time that the spirit of rest
lessness that sends the boys to the
city is Turing our girls there also.
What can we do about it? While we
have beautiful faith in our daugh
ters, we must recognize the fact that
they face dangers in the city from
which we cannot prott ct them, and
many times from which the most
careful of girls cannot protect them
selves. No thinking person disputes
the fact that boys and girls are safer
on the farm than in the city; but
how keep them there?
"The question of an occupation for
girls that will be both pleasant and
profitable, and at the same time keep
them in the country, is not receiving
the consideration it merits. The girl
of today does not care to remain de-
pendent upon her parents no matter
how generous they may be in the
matter of allowances. They wish to
have an income of their own, earned
by themselves, and that is their
clinching argument when they an
nounce their desire to go into the
city. There are opportunities in the
city which the country does not
afford.
1--WE must try to add something to
the lists of employments open to
home. Now, we have teaching, sew
ing, homework, and the raising of
bees and chickens. Fruit culture has
been mentioned, [ think. but it seems
to me that it should be given a more
prominent place as an occupation for
girls; for they are especially fitted
for such work and could easily do it
at home if only plans were made to
that end. AS rule, girls are pains
taking and careful as to details and
they have strong love for the beauti-
full, which is very essential TO success
in the raising of fruit. With little
help III the purchasing of supplies,
keeping the books and marketing the
fruit they would soon obtain a good
practical bus ness education that

BALTIMORE, Md, October 5.-The
Walden to win which is the ambition OF
every owner who has a two-year-old
entered, was won by Superintendent yes
terday at Pimico. Silent Pilot was sec
ond and Stromboli third. The distance
was mile, and the time was 1.41 as.
There were thirteen starters in the classic
event.
The second feature Of the day was the
Chesapeake handicap. at mile and an
eighth 1t was won from post to post by
Capt. Cassatts grand filly, Flying Fairy,
who shouldered 123 pounds Ringing
was second and Barnegat third.
The Owners handicap was the third
feature and O'Bear just got up in time to
get the decision from Charles X. Har-
rison's Navarro Maltbie was third, a
short distance away. Raj PARIS Shan

Superintendent's Great Run
Superintendent broke clear of interior

rounding the first turn, he was running
second to August Belmont's hope, Strom-

ents speed was too much for Stromboli
and he went to the front. At the quarter
pole the winner had the Belmont young
ster beaten. but, like flash of lightning.
Silent Pilot came out OF the bunch ana
challenged the leader. But the latter had
more than enough left to Withstand the
challenge, and got home in front of
Silent Pilot by length. Stromboli hung
on gamely. as most high-bred thorough
breds will. and finished third, a neck In

would have won the race, for on the

The winner carried 113 pounds.
Flying Fairy Game One.
Flying Fairy's game performance of
carrying 123 pounds and always out
sprinting her field caused the spectators
to shout their approval as she came
down the home stretch. She had the
speed to carry her to the rail by the
time the judges stand was reached, and,
after getting ahead a length. she was
rated along in front by Jockey Davies
during the rest of the journey. Ringing
was caught in jam in front of the
judges stand and was knocked out of
the early running, but by a grand effort
