USE CARE IN BUYING TREES
Reliable Nurseries Should Furnish
Plants at Lower Prices Than Same
Goods Through Agent.
CRx II. G rHoMpSoNA

tBy II. e. THOMPSOND
When possible to do so purchase
trees directly from the nearest relia-
bic nursery firm. The proprietors of
such nurseries should furnish good
trees at lower prices than the same
goods can be bought through an agent
The honest agent whose credentials
show that he is doing business for a
reputable nursery is to be encour-
aged.
Have no dealings Nth the unreii-
able tree peddler, who is abroad in
the land deceiving the people with
exaggerated pictures, who buys up
Gull stock and mixed lots Of seedlings
not infrequently affected with diseases
and insect pests, who represents such
goods to be some new and superior
fruit, and who sells his stock at
several times the price our best
nurserymen ask for first-class trees.
Buy trees that have been inspected
for dangerous parasites and look for
certificate of inspection on the pack
age before you accept it.
Trees one year old from bud or
graft are usually the proper age to
plant, but some slow growing sorts
may be two years old before planting.
Under no circumstances should trees
over two years old be planted for
they receive a greater check in trans
planting than Younger trees and do
not make as good growth. They are
more likely TO be broken in digging
and packing and the cost of transpor-
tation is greater. Young trees can be
pruned and trained to suit the ideals
Of the grower better than older trees
for they will not have large branches
on them.

CARING FOR THE RASPBERRY
Canes That Have Borne Fruit Should
Be pruned Away Soon as They
Haye Performed Duty.
CBy w. r GILBERT)

The raspberry is too often left alone
or prepared by rule Of thumb methods
only. When this is the case it is use
less TO look for good crops. The canes
that have borne fruit should always
be got rid of as soon as they have
performed this duty
Choose fine weather for this opera
ton and leave three or four young
shoots to each stool. Manure and let
them grow away until spring. Then
if they appear very crowded let the
side shoots be shortened back before
midsummer, down to about six or
eight leaves from the ground. By
doing this the light and air will have
free play and without their beneficial
agency no good results can be had.
The canes Of the bushes must never
be allowed to press one another When
this Is the case good fruit is impossi
Die. Over-crowding Is fatal to either
fruit or flowers
The great object in pruning is to
open the heart of the tree OF bush SO
as to admit the sunghine and air The
thicket of young suckers should also
be removed. To form a raspberry
hedge, plant the canes foot apart
and train on wires Cut those that
have borne and train the young canes
so that they are six inches asunder.

AT SOUTH POLE
Captain Scott and Party Found Frozen
TO Death.

Capt. Robert +. Scott, the English
polar explorer, and his party of IS
noted scientists and sailors were froz-
en- to death in blizzard which over
whelmed them after they reached the
south pole on Jan. 10, 1912.
Expecting to meet the party and
bring the members back to civilization,
the Terra Nova, the vessel which had
carried the expedition to the Antarc-
tic, returned to the base of operations
and found the entire party dead. The
news was brought to Oamaru, New
Zealand, by signalled message from
the vessel on her return.
The expedition consisted of 20 Of
ilcers and scientists in addition to a
crew of % picked men from the Brit
Ssh royal navy.
The total number OF deaths involv-
ed in the calamity is not exactly
known, but it is believed that GO scien-
lists and sailors lost their lives.
Capt. Scott's party reached the ex-
act point where Ronald Amundsen
planted the Norwegian flag at the
south pole. They found there the hut
constructed and left behind by Amund-
sens party.
These facts were recorded in the
documents found on the bodies Of the
dead explorers when they were re-
covered.

Although slightly amended the

districts. The basis for apportionment
is one representative for each 2S,1OO

increased in population TO remain en-.
titled TO its old representation.

Representative Wilcox, of Ontona
gon county, hopes through the aid OF
q concurrent resolution to secure the
appointment Of a commission TO inves
tigate the Feasibility of erecting new
100000 prison in Ontonagon county
where the convicts may be employed
by the state in the mining OF copper
1t is Rep. Wilcox's idea that il
would be good proposition TO trans
fer some of the inmates at the LapeeI
home for the feeble minded and epilep'
tic to Marquette prison. and erect a
new prison in Ontonagon county to
care for the convicts who would work
the mines. BY this Wilcox claims the
overcrowded condition of the Lapeer
institution could be remedied, and the
appropriation of 100000 asked for at
Lapeer would be sufficient 10 build the
new prison In his county.
According 10 the Ontonagan repre-
sentative, who is himself a miner, the
copper mines in Ontonagon county
have never been a paying investment,
but he believes the state could sue
coed where private parties have failed,
IL the convicts are placed at work in
the mines. He is also Of the opinion
that the convicts would be able TO
share in the plan, and aid in providing
for their families.
Rep. Wilcox says that the inmates
of the Lapeer home would find the
climate much better at Marquette, and
that it would relieve the crowded con-
ditions Of the hCme.
