RULES FOR BUYING FRUIT
TREES.

In purchasing trees deal only with
reputable nurserymen, and eliminate
the tree peddler as far as possible.
Choose those varieties that are best
suited to your local conditions. Or
der the stock early, and have it
shipped when the ground is prepared
and you are ready to plant. AS u
rule, it makes very little difference
when the trees are put out, provided
they arc properly handled and well
matured stock is secured. When
trees arrive, don't leave them in the
express Office for any length Of time.
Remove and heel-in if you are not
prepared to put them out. If, on
the other hand. the trees have dried
out, bury in moist soil or submerge
in water.
In ordering trees, demand that one
year-old stock be sent, and accept no
lust as good" varieties. This is
especially true in regard to peaches.
apples and plums. Trees two years
old and older have had their heads
formed in the nursery row, and they
are more difficult to transplant. The
common notion that fruit will be Sc
HdiShSi hdo Dccu CIPiOucu, anu
it is common knowledge that one
year-old stuff gives the most salts
factory results.
First-class nursery stock should be
free from all disease and insect pests,
should possess a we'll developed root
system, and should be straight and
comely, and should come true to
name. Accept only budded or graft
ed trees. Fruits will not come from
seed, hence the necessity Of grating
all standard varieties.
Varieties are numerous, and no set
of varieties will do well under vary
ing conditions. Therefore, it is well
for those contemplating the setting
of a new orchard to find out just
what varieties are suited to the con-
ditions at hand and order these.
Novelties may be tried out on a small
scale. before hand and order these

PAYING H PRICE.

We are always paying the price for
the things we lose or gain,
Out of this life of mingled glarness
and of pain;
And whether we pay for pleasure or
we pay for sin,
It is always paying the price for life,
no matter where we begin.
We say we have had a lot we've en-
joyed and we've shade in the
best;
We sit some times with a little dream
of old contsnt in the breast;
And then we look away and think OF
the things that were nice,
1t all comes over us, lucky or sad,
that we've had to pay the price.
The magnate pays it for his, as the
pauper pays it, too;
And the saint pays as the sinner does
and the unsaved have to to; -.
In all that we have and hold, or in all
that we've thrown away,
It is sure in the end to come to this,
that there was a price to pay.
We nav it for love and peace. for
cheer and comfort and song:
We nav for SHINING and going astray,
we pay it for doing wrong;
In all that we are or seem, IN glad
ness or grief OF pain,
We are always paying the price for
the things that we lose or gain.

BEAT THE BOIL wEEvlL.

The boil weevil is here to stav. r.
Is likely that within a few wears r.
will infest all cotton growing dis
'r,cts. Under proper farming meth
ods as much cotton can be raised
with the boil weevil as has been pro-
duced under old methods at any time
before the pest came. In large dis
tricts where the boil weevil almost
wiped out cotton 8 to IL years ago
and has been persistent since. as
much cotton is being raised now as in
Inc best years before the weevil came.
everything necessary to do to secure
good yields under boil weevi. infes-
tation is profitable to do where there
is no boil weevil.
The strong weevils that live
through the winter and are the be-
ginning of the hordes that destroy
tne cotton next summer are develop
ed IN the squares and feed on the
tender shoots of the top growth that
IS made the last weeks before frost.
Destroy all stalks while thew are
green and before frost, and the
weevils perish. The earlier this is
done, the more weevils will be de-
stroyed. One weevil killed in the
fall may result in thousands less the
following summer.
Cut the stalks with a mower and
cure the hay to feed horses, mules
and cattle. The leaves and finer
stems make rich hay, the stalks will
be waste. Cut the stalks with a stalk
cutter or hoe and pillow them under
to a depth of 6 to 8 inches.
Weevils live through the winter
under trash in the cotton fields, ditch
banks, fence rows, turn rows and in
the old bark and rubbish around
stumps, clumps of trees and the tim
Der. Clean up these places.
Save seed of early fruiting varie-
ties now before it is shipped away.
The boil weevil does not do serious
damage until August and a variety
that fruits heavily in July will give
a yield in spite of severe boil weevil
infestation.
An early fruiting variety yield
ed this year at the Experiment Sta
ton, S~toneville, Miss, where the
weevil was abundant, 1920 pounds
sed cotton per acre, while, in the
same field, ordinary late fruiting va
rieties produced 500 pounds seed
cotton an acre.

IAN p A DAY."

"An apple a day keeps the doctor
away" is a health truth with which
we are too little acquainted. The
originators of the saying well knew
the value of apples in the diet, though
they probably knew little
ing the reasons why. Today we not
only know that the apple is good in
the human dietary, but we know why,
know that as an aid to diges-
ton, as a tonic and appetizer, and as
an aid in eliminating the poisonous
wastes of the body, fruits are better
than all the medicines in the apothe-
cary's shop.
From the first strawberries in
March and April on through the list
of peaches, plums, blackberries, dew
berries, prages, watermelons, figs, on
to the apples of autumn, there need
not be a single day when the family
is without delicious and health-giv-
ing fruits. Nor need the coming of
winter curtail the supply, for out of
the summers superabundance it is
easily possible to can and preserve
a supply to tide US over the winter

SCHOOL OF M OTHERHOOD

There have been innumerable
projects for schools or school cour-
ses in the art and science of moth
erhood. Some Of them ...ay have
been successful, for all anyone
knows, although in the rush of
news on the advance of styles in
corsets and earrings and other ne
cessities there seems no place for
reviewing the motherhood situat-
ion. But the will Of the late Mrs.
Lizzie Morril Palmer, of Detroit,
is attracting some attention, mo-
mentarily. Mrs. Palmer left some
thing like one million dollars to
found aschool of motherhood. The
million surely tinkles in the ear,
even if motherhood doesn't mean
much to some mothers.
Mrs. Palmers idea went deeper
than the mere vocal and instru-
mental teaching Of motherhood.
And properly so. For the funda-
mentals of motherhood can be
picked from a ninety eight cent
dictionary, while what we want
tosee taught is the responsibility,
not the medicine of it.
Mrs. Palmer understood that.
Her plans provide for no ordinary
clinic in obstetric, but for a school
that shall train girls of ten years
and upwards, mentally, morally,
physically, and religiously for the
discharge ofthe functions Of wife
hood and motherhood and the
management, supervision and in
spiration of the home. Poor girls
willreceivethe training free. Rich
girls willpay-if itshould strange
ly happen that any girls with mon
ey to spend are interested in such
affairs.
The will Of Mrs. Palmer may
never be executed in it's finest in
tention. Ours is a busy world, and
motherhood is hardly more than
an incident as some women view
it. But its a good will, The beau
tiful idealism of it may impress a
few, even if people dosnort at the
thoughtof goingto school for pos
terity's sake.
A trifIe eccentric, nodoubt, but
hearken to these words Of Mrs.
Palmer:
Il hold profoundly the convict
ion that the welfare of any COM
munity is divinely and hence in
acknowledgement upon thequa-
lities of its motherhood and the
spirit and charity of its homes. !"
1t sounds like the music of an
old song. You couldn't fox trot to
it to save your soul, but it does
have a certain melody.
