comes pretty nearly being a crime
to take an axe among the trees.
Not much use to spray for leaf curl
after the buds break. We tried to
convince a man of this fact when we
saw him spraying along the middle
of June. He said he was spraying TO
prevent leaf curl, but did not know
what caused it. Do you?
How many fine orchards we have
seen ruined by allowing a top-heavy
growth. The way some people treat
their orchards one would imagine that
they gave their trees credit for pos
sessing human intelligence and the
power to protect themselves from
enemies and to rid themselves of dis
ease.
The ground newly set trees should
be firmed frequently for az least a
year as otherwise they are apt to be
blown out of line by the strong
winds
Do not be afraid to thin the fruit
on the trees. Rub of the apples and
peaches until one is left every five
or six inches. II takes grit to do
this, but you will have better and
larger fruit II you will follow the plan.
Orchard soil must be hich in organic
matter and for that purpose If for no
other clover crops are valuable.
Orchard ground should not be cul-
tivated later than August first because
cultivation keeps the sap running and
the trees must have time to stop
growing and harden before winter
comes on.

II is known to be more or less COM
mon In Europe. In Germany 1t is be-
lieved to be the result OF injury to the
roots received in cultivation or in some
other way. In our own country it is
more or less commonly known in many
sections, and doubtless occurs through
out the greater portion of the United
States.
The only treatment that can be rec
commended at present is to vigorously
exclude all affected plants when set
ting. No one can AFFORD to plant such
trees under any circumstances. The
risk is too great and the chance of
ever getting any profitable return
from them far too small. OF course
ut is always desirable that the trees

list, but it is not always possible to do
this. The next best thing to do is to
burn every tree in the orchard found

There is a mysterious disease be-

paratively little is known. Its effects

definitely determined. The name root

by which to designate 1t, but in using
the term it is liable to be confused
with another disease due 10 an entire

Statistics gathered by the painstak-

Europe, at the last count. more than
z 1000 persons over a century old. The
richer the country, apparently, the
fewer persons attain extreme old age.
Bulgaria heads the list with 1888 CEN

mania and Servia, next with 1,7O4 and

no other country has more than 200.
England has only 90, and the three
Scandinavian states were at the bot
