Don't expect good fruit and plenty
of it unless you feed the trees and
bushes accordingly.
Large seeded grapes should be dis
carded
Ashes and bone are first rate ferti-
lizers.
Bury all bones about the roots of
vines and trees.
Strawberries may be grown the first
two years under the grapevines.
Make the soil rich before setting out
the vines and plants.
If large crop is wanted, give addi-
Eonal dressings of fertilizers, ashes
aud bone dust.
Top-dress the orchard and fruit gar
den, but keep weedy manure out of
the strawberry patch.
Give the blackberries a corner of
cool land and cultivate for two years.
After that only cut back the tops and
thin out the old canes.
Trees in the fruit garden should be
beaded low for reasons Of convenience
and for other reasons affecting the well
fare of the trees. Only dwarf varieties
should be planted here.
For the fruit garden, the advice not
to trim is as bad as not to cultivate.
It is the business of the tree to repro
duce itself, and the more limb, the
more seed in the fruit.

To close the case, the sides and low

then the upper flap folds downwards

Hints of Dress Style for

Parisiennes seem to have gone

No dress is considered complete
without the addition of an elaborate
collar of curious design. And of course
the same holds true of blouses and

"a Wild Goose Chase"

= County Warden A. D. Beede was
recently Informed that parties at
Charleston had captured a half dozen
wild geese near Salem pond and that
the best interests Of the state demanded
that the state authorities take the
geese. To that end Mr.. Beede drove
to Charleston and returned with two
old geese and three young ones. 1t
now appears that several parties in
Charleston feel aggrieved about the
matter and each in turn demanded the
return Of the geese to their native
baunts. Several parties claim to own
them and are certain that the geese in
question are of the domestic variety.
Mr. Beede was thus placed in very
peculiar position and for several days
has been meditating just what is best
to do. We are now Informed that his
in the matter are over. Some
body stole all five of the geese from
the hotel barn Saturday night
