years ago." writes a Topeka woman,
that coffee was the direct cause of the
insomnia from which / suffered ter

and acute dyspepsia.
Il had been a coffee Grinker since
childhood, and did not like to think
that the beverage was doing me all
this harm. But it was, and the time
came when / had to face the fact, and
protect myself. I therefore gave up
coffee abruptly and absolutely, and
adopted Postum for my hot drink at
meals.
Il began to note improvement in
my condition very soon after l took
on Postum. The change proceeded
gradually, but surely, and it was a

nervousness passed away, my diges-
tive apparatus was restored to normal
efficiency, and 1 began to sleep rest

entirely to Postum, for when / began
to drink it I ceased to use medicines"

previous seasons growth should have
been left than is shown in Fig 2, as
there appears to be only a small
amount of surface on which fruit can
be produced the following season;
but apparently the tree has been put
in fairly good condition with regard
to it's later usefulness.
Heading in tree from year to year
as suggested and pruning with a view
to producing an open, spreading, low
top results not only in the develop
ment of strong, stocky limbs we'll able
to sustain heavy loads of fruit, but
it brings a large proportion of the
top near the ground, where much of
the fruit can be harvested without the
use of stepladders.
Before an architect begins to draw
the plans for building he must have
mental picture of the completed
structure, at least so far as the main
features are concerned. He must
know what details are necessary at
every step, as he develops the plans,
In order to produce the desired re-
suits. Not unlike this, the man who
prunes a fruit tree during it's first
years must have pretty clear con-
ception Of what the tree is to look
like when it reaches maturity, and he
needs to know from the beginning
what is necessary each time it is
pruned in order to develop the tree
which forms his mental vision. Of
course, such picture can develop
fully only with experience and as one
becomes familiar with the characteris-
tics of growth, habit and behavior of
the different varieties. At the same
time a well-formulated plan, based on
a knowledge of the underlying prin-
ciples of pruning, Is essential if the
operation is to be anything more than
a haphazard removal of branches that
appear to be in the way.
The United States department of
agriculture, Washington, D. c., will

charge, it's Farmers Bulletin (No.
632) on Growing Peaches" which
gives in detail much information on
the pruning of trees, renewal of tops,
thinning, interplanted crops, and spe
cial practices.

After a peach tree reaches bearing
age, the fundamental principles under
lying pruning are based on the fact
that the fruit is always borne on wood
that grew the previous season. 1t is,
therefore, essential so to manage the
trees as to induce a fairly liberal
growth each season.
AS a general proposition, very
heavy pruning will induce a CORE
spondingly large amount of new wood
growth. 1t follows that the weaker
growing varieties should be pruned
more heavily, relatively, than the very
strong-growing sorts.
By the time peach trees reach three
to four years old they should be bear
ing good crops of fruit After this,
they will make smaller annual
growth under usual conditions than
during the earlier years. Less head
ing in is therefore required. In some
seasons it may not be necessary to
cut back the terminal growth, though
to do SO will tend, as a rule, to de-
ve,op the smaller secondary and side
branches, which is desirable. Again,
the extent of the heading back will be
governed in some seasons by the
abundance and condition Of the fruit
buds. If there has been winter injury
or if the buds failed to form we'll the
previous season, little or no reduction
of the previous seasons growth will
be needed. On the other hand, if the
trees made a strong growth, an alum
dant set of fruit buds developed ind
they have suffered no injury, a CORE
spending heavy cutting back of the
previous seasons growth may be adj
visable, in order to thin the fruit as
much as is possible by that means.
Some of the details of pruning ma
ture peach trees are suggested in
Figs. 1 and 2, which show tree eight
years old before and after it received
the annual pruning to make it shape
ly, remove superfiuous wood, and pro-
vide for the development of new
growth. While the tree illustrated is
far from being ideal, as it had not
been we'll handled in previous years,
it shows certain important features.
The heading back of the main limbs
will tend to prevent them from be-
coming "leggy," and it will induce a
good strong growth of new fruit-bear-
ing wood well within the center of
the tree. 1t may require some thin
ming out at the next annual pruning to
prevent the top from becoming too
dense. Probably more wood of the

Famous Arlington.

Arlington, as is generally known,
formerly belonged to the wife of Gen.
Robert E. Lee. Mrs. Lee was a daugh-
ter of George Parke Custis, who was
a grandson Of Martha Washington.
The stately mansion, whose classic col
umns have been seen by every visitor
to Washington city, was inherited by
her, and at the outbreak of the Civil
war it was the Lee home. Lee, then
a colonel in the United States army,
wrote his resignation there April 20,
1861. Two days later he quilted his
beautiful home forever to accept COM
mand in the military forces of his
state.

Lee Had Gone to Find Grant.
when we arrived at the place
where Sims had left General Lee we
found only Generals Gordon. and Long
street, who explained that General Lee
had galloped off to the rear to find
General Grant Immediately after Sims
had started out with the flag of truce,
and had left them in command. L
stated to them the message from Gus
ter to Lee and told them that | must
have an immediate reply. They said
there was no doubt of surrender, as
we had cut off their line of retreat the
night before. and that they were per-
sonally satisfied of the uselessness or
further resistance. l expressed regret
that so many good men had been
killed the night before and that morn
ing, whereupon they said that General
Lee would not believe that the Union
infantry was across the Lynchburg
pike until the repulse Of Gordons
charge, which had been made that
morning by his orders.

heard to the east of where | had LETT

Ger was sent with orders to stop it. l
noticed tnat the guns that were NOV
ing past us as we talked had smoke
coming from their mouth, indicating
that they we're the same that had been
used so vigorously on our column a
short time before. l protested against
the moving of these guns, and was as
sured that the object was to water the
horses in a small creek near by. At
this moment General Ord's Infantry
line of battle was seen closing in on
us from the west, and | was begged to
announce the surrender of the army to
that line.
First Notice of Surrender.
ct saw that there was no time to
lose so I pulled out the old towel
again and rode out to the Union in
fantry lire and said to General Cham
berlain of Maine that Lees army had
surrendered. The line halted at once
and a shout went up from right to
left, followed by a scene that words
fail to describe / then galloped back
across the field to General Custer to
make the same announcement. 1t was
in this way that the infantry histo-
rians claim that the surrender was
first made to them.
