A great deal has been said lately
about intensive farming, and farmers
have been urged to confine their ener-
gies to smaller areas and to give bet
ter cultivation and more attention to
details. All these principles apply
with equal force to fruit growing. The
curse to the fruit grower is an ambi-
ton to possess quantity rather than
quality and to widen his field of opera
tion without a corresponding degree
Of labor.
In the West, where fruit growing
has been carried to far greater per-
lection than here, five acres of orchard,
without small fruit or vegetables, are
considered enough to call for all Of
one mans activity.
Intensive fruit growing means the
cultivation of comparatively small
areas and the application thereto of
such labor as will produce a maximum
of fruit by the exercise Of scientific
methods and careful attention to de-
tails. 1t is a system much more salts
factory and profitable to the grower
than the old extensive one, and when
ever 1t is given a fair trial there will
be no departure from it.
Dwarf pears may be set quite close
together. They can be planted even
In the hedge rows, not over three feet
apart, with advantage and profit. Such
a row presents a beautiful sight when
In full bloom, and the close planting,
with its consequent of not too rapid
growth, is a preventive of blight.
Currants are appropriate in tree
rows, because they rather like a par
tial shade; and the strawberries re-
ceive enough sun while the trees are
young not to be injured.
There are two essentials in this
system Of thick planting; one Is suf-
fcient labor intelligently directed, and
the other is heavy fertilizing. A grow
er in the East Is said to produce
$4,000 worth of fruit on five acres of
ground, but these acres are so we'll
Kept that they have the appearance of
huge garden.
More hand labor is called for, be-
cause the horse cannot be employed
SO generally and because more atten-
tion must be paid to particulars.
Weeds must be crowded out; there is
literally no room for them. There are
rows of trees, and between them in
the rows are the smaller fruits of all
kinds. The middles between the
trees are closely occupied by grapes

New Destructive Insect,

An unknown insect has been dis
covered by Mr.. Winthrop, a research
student in Prof. Maxwell Leroy's de-
partment at the Royal College of Sci
ence, London. 1t has been named the
golf green fly, because it destroys the
tender and delicate grass on putting
greens. In the earlier stages of it's
existence docking for all the world
like brown seed in it's chrysallis
stage) it conceals itself in the stem of
the grass. In the last, or fly stage, it
is tiny dark brown insect scarcely
distinguishable from midge. 1t be-
longs to the same group as the wheat
pest the Hessian fly.

Woman Of Mystery.

The famous white lady," who never
missed day of the Dreyfus trial, has
just died at Hyeres, France, aged
sixty. About a month ago she ar
rived at Bormes and complained to the
mayor that people. were endeavoring
to abduct her with the view Of ulti-
mately securing her property. AS there
was no evidence Of any such plot the
mayor merely advised her to make a
will, and sent a notary to her lodging,
but when he reached it he found that
the lady had departed with Doctor
Petit for Hyeres. She took the Villa
Mathlide, where she has just died Her
real name was Nine. Jouffroy dab
bans. The procurer of Toulon imme-
diately had seals affixed, and ordered
careful inventory of the objects in
f9r travelling bag which she always
carried and which is supposed to con-
tain about $4,000 in money and at
least $150,000 in jewels. This, how
ever, remains to be proved.

Disease-infected rabbits, inoculated
with the germs of tuberculosis and
other diseases of most dangerous ma
ture, have been stolen from the lab
oratory of Doctor Bonnefoy at Allauch,
near Marseilles. 1t is feared that the
thieves may have already disposed of
the stolen rabbits to provision dealers.
Doctor Bonnefoy as soon as he discov-
cred that the rabbits were missing, in
formed the police and asked that the
widest publicity should be given to
the fact in the local newspapers so
that persons should beware of eating
rabbits coming from doubtful source.
1t is probable that for some time the
consumption of rabbits in Marseilles
and neighborhood will drop consider
ably.

A sweet-faced old lady walked up
Fifth avenue hanging on to the arm
of her husband, who was little bit
hard of hearing. A girl brushed past
them rudely, humping into the old
lady.
"She didn't even say Excuse me- !"
she said Indignantly to her husband.
What, my dear?" he inquired
mildly.
The old lady repeated her state
ment in louder tone. Still the old
gentleman did not understand.
Excuse me-" she shrieked above
Certainly, my dear" he answered
graciously. But what did you do?"

times Results In Making Her More
or Less Of a Drudge.

I'm glad I'm not the Oldest" re-
marked a pretty girl to her chum.
why, Susan has to do almost every
thing at home; father thinks she ought
to take the burden of housekeeping
off mothers hands, and my brother
wants her to wait on him as if she
were a servant-he knows better than
to ask me to do anything for him
says I'm spoiled-and you just bet I'm
glad I'm the youngest girl"
Too often the oldest daughter is
made a drudge, and there is not the
proper amount of respect and regard
for the girl whose labors take the
place of maid. She is expected to
run errands, help with the care and
amusement Of the children, teach
them lessons. What wonder that
such a girl will take the first oppor-
tunity for work as means to escape
from these unpaid labors, or accept
an offer of marriage in order to live
apart from a family who do not even
try to make her home life comfort
able and pleasant.
But / am glad to say that not al
ways is the position Of eldest daugh-
ter" such an unappreciated one; in
some households she Is beloved and
respected, at the same time expected
to fulfil whatever duties may fall to
her lot. Her sisters and brothers are
taught that they must return any serv-
ice she may perform for them with
due appreciation, if nothing more, and
they soon learn that her place is an
honored one, instead of being unen-
viable.-Pittsburgh Dispatch.
