LEFT THE COLONEL THINKING
Probably After This He Made Some
Inquiries Before He Gave Up
His Money.

A certain old colonel was noted for
his great generosity. He had lost an
arm during one of the engagements
in which he had seen service, and
this made him very sympathetic to-
ward all who had experienced similar
losses.
While walking on his estate one day
he met an old one-legged man, evil
IDENTIFY in abject poverty.
"Ah, you have met with great
misfortune, like myself, | see," re.
marked the colonel.
"Ah," replied the old man, and,
like yersel, colonel, have spent a
great part o. my life in governments
service, and seen a lot O. hard
work"
my poor mani" exclaimed the
kind hearted colonel, as he pushed n
half dollar into the old mans hand,
Il fear you have received but poor
reward for your services"
I'VE may well say that, colonel, -
replied the veteran as he hobbled
away.
But" added the colonel, you
didn't tell me where you served"
well. II II comes to that" the old
reprobate answered, with a sly
chuckle, Il served my time in jjail,

northeastern states This is because
The fruit demands cool climate and
loose, moist soil with an abundance
OF humus. In a wild state both the
red and black varieties are found at
their best on newly cleared timber
lands of the eastern and central
states. Land from which timber has
been removed In the east is nearly
always first occupied by the raspber-
ry brambles. After the surface hu-
mus becomes more or less exhausted
these bushes disappear.
The great drawback to raspberry
growing either In a wild or cultivated
state is the droughts that are apt to
occur at time Of ripening.
Propagation of the raspberry varies
according to which species 1t belongs.
The red raspberries are propagated
from the suckers which come up
from the parent root AS rule most
Of the red varieties throw up enough
suckers to insure plenty of young
plants. For chis reason careful cul-
uvation has TO be resorted to in or
der to avoid injuring the root system
OF the old plant. For when It is In
jured II acts only as a stimulant to
throw more shoots and often requires
a severe pruning to keep them down.
The old plant can be separated, by
division thus obtaining extra plants
for planting purposes, but as a rule
this is not as good plan as to use
the young shoots with the roots at
tached.
The black raspberry Is propagated
by the tip layerage. This is done by
covering the tips along the latter
part of July or the first of August.
They take root at this point and gen.
orally establish themselves well
enough so that the next spring they
can be separated from the parent
stock by cutting the cane OF near the
ground.
The purple cane varieties vary
somewhat in their mode Of propaga-
ton according to the variety. The
most of them however resemble the
black-cap IL this respect and are
propagated by tip layerage.

(By r. S. HERRICK and +. r. BEN
NETT. Colorado Agricultural College)
The raspberry is one of the best
known small fruits. In its wild state
It has been used as food since the
beginning of history. This fruit be-
longs to the family OF brambles Of
which there are many hundred spe-
cies. The raspberries of commerce
are mostly included in three species
These three species are divided be-
tween two quite distinct types. the
reds and blacks.
The European red raspberry, Rubus
Idaeus, is little grown In this country.
The fruit is similar to the, American
red raspberry in appearance, OF bet
ter quality, but the plants are less
hardy. The early attempts at red
raspberry culture in this country were
largely confined to the development
OF this species but these have never
succeeded because the species is not
adapted to our climatic conditions.
The American red raspberry, Rubus
strtgosus, is of comparatively recent
domestcation. In the wild state II is
found more or less over the northern
and eastern United States. One va
riety OF this species is native in the
higher attitudes OF the Rocky noun
tains. This wild raspberry OF the
mountains is far superior In quality to
the domesticated berry or to the wild
berry of the east Up to the present
time, however, nothing has been done
to improve or acclimate the berry to
cultivated conditions.
The black raspberry. Rubus occi-
dentalis. is also native to the north
ern and eastern United States. The
black raspberry of commerce is prac-
tically the same as the wild berries
OF the fields. This species is COM
mercially the most important Of the
raspberries
Another species, REbus neglectus, is
a hybrid OF the American red and
black raspberry. This species is rel
atively unimportant. 1t is represent.
ed by what is known as the purple
cane berries.
The raspberry has reached its great
est commercial Importance In the
