One feature of st. Kildan life
would have appealed strongly to
DR.. Johnson if he had carried out
his intention of spending a winter
on the island. "rhe men of St.
kilda,' writes John Sands, ARE in
the habit of congregating in front
of one of the houses almost every
morning for the discussion Of bust
ness. ! called this assembly the
parliament, and, with laugh, they
adopted the name. When the SUBJ
ject is exciting they talk with loud
voices and all at one time, but
when the question is once settled
they work together in perfect har-
mony.' Shall we go to catch solan
geese or ling or mend the boat TO-
day? Such are some examples of
the questions that occupy the house.
Sometimes disputes are settled by
drawing lots. London Chronicle.

BURIED ORCHARDS.
Peach Trees That Are Turned Under
Ground 60 Escape Frost.


Ground 60 Escape Frost
The burying of entire peach or
chards for protection against late
spring frosts is a common practice
in the intermountain valleys Of
eastern Colorado. In areas where
not more than one full crop in seven
or eight years has been previously
harvested annual yields are now
to be counted on. A net return of
$25 from each peach tree is not I'M
common.
Irrigation facilitates the task of
burying the trees. Just before a
hard freeze is due in the late fall
the Colorado orchardist digs q
trench to each peach tree which
he expects to STAY down" and turns
on the water, allowing it to run
until the soil about the roots is
thoroughly soaked. He then can
undermine the trees and bend them
down with little difficulty. They
are held to the ground by heavy
plank or by ropes until a covering
of hay is spread over them and a
layer of dirt shoveled on top of
that. Two inches of dirt have been
found sufficient protection in 80
below zero weather.
Orchards are left PROSTATE and
covered until the last bit of danger
from frost in the spring has passed.
In the higher localities this danger
period is not before the 10th of
May. When the hay and dirt are
finally removed mass of pink
bloom greets the orchardiSt. He
will tell you it is the prettiest sight
in the world. Sometimes. if the
season be. late, tiny peaches will
show their green heads among the
pink blossoms.
After raising the tree brace IS
applied and left against the trunk
through the summer. An orchard
of trees all proppcd in this maDner,
their branches all leaning one way
and showing more foliage and fruit
on one side than on the other, pre-
sents a novel picture to the Colo.

have been told that peach or
chards subjected to this burying
treatment were short lived. Last

with big, luscious peaches. 1t had
been buried for ten successive win
tiers and had yielded six full crops.
