His Hands Shake, His Knees Wobbts
and His Conscience u More
Than Hall Asleep.

John Barleycorn 10 bad chauffeur.
His hand shakes, his knees wobble. his
eyesight ia poor and his conscience
half asleep. And anyone who permits
this reckless driver to sit at the wheel
OF motor car Is menace to life.
That is why little sympathy is felt
for the Baltimore man just sentenced
to two years in the penitentiary be-
cause. while intoxicated. he ran down
and killed woman. And II this con
Wet fancies himself the victim OF
great injustice, he should compare his
fate with that OF the woman whose
neck his carelessness broke.
One does not have to be intoxicated
to deserve prison for reckless driving
Nor does one have to be rich. as the
Baltimore man Ia. Indeed, the plight
OF this man should have an equally SO
bering effect upon all careless drivers

APPLES NEED GOOD
DEPTH OF SUBSOlL
Presence Of Unbroken Rock With
In Three Feet Of Surface
Causes Failures.

In choosing site for apple raising
the necessity for good depth Of subsoil
cannot be emphasized too strongly.
Shallow soils should be assiduously
avoided for orchard purposes. The
presence OF unbroken rock. large
lodges. or hardpan within three feet Or
the surface should be considered pro-
hibitiye. A soil depth OF at least SIX
feet should be insisted upon, and an
even greater depth ID highly desirable.
Soils with the underlying rock too
near the surface have been responsible
not infrequently for the failure OF com.
mercial orchards owing 10 the inca
pacity OF the subsoil to store sufficient
moisture to offirl droughty conditions,
or to get rid Of excess moisture early
enough IN the spring.
The condition OF tree growth ana
fruit yields makes It evident that soils
for any kind OF orchard planting should
