fice, or wherever he Is employed, or touch elbows with them coming and going through the crowded thorough fares. If there is sufficient attraction at home for him all attempts to draw him into filtration are useless.
 In glancing at other attractive femi- nine faces, the thought comes to him that the wife at home eagerly await ing his coming is more attractive still. Wives have it in their power to at tract their husbands or repel them to far greater degree than they think possible If she meets him with a frown, he may attempt to mollify her the first few times with explanations and kisses. But it will be an old story to him afterward. She can make all the complaints or threats to him she likes and he will not even hear them He will be thinking of something else, perhaps another woman with whom he has been brought in contact that day whose every word was honeyed and whose lips wore a continual smile.
 The complaining, fretful wife by de grees loses her hold upon the man who likes love, gayety and frivolty at times showered upon him. There's a never-ending talk of woe on her lips from baby being cross, crying all day from cutting his teeth, to fussing over all the work she has to do. She should be prepared for his impatient retort, Would you have the youngster go without teeth to escape the pain of cutting them?" And, as for the work, people who cannot afford to keep a maid must expect such duties will fall to their lot. Grumbling doesn't mend matters or do the washing and the ironing.
 By merest chance the other woman who by the way is a widow-chats brightly about home work and makes light of the work she has to do. She does not even mention her troubles, but leaves it to be imagined that her life is one grand, sweet song. Her conversation soothes an irritated man instead of stirring him up.
 It is fatal for wifes happiness for her husband to wish she had the lov- ing temperament of some other wom- an. A husband is supposed to be the sharer of his wifes joys and sorrows. The more of her sorrows she can es- cape telling him of asking him to shoulder them, the better she is off

 Deep in sorrow, or want or sin,
 One king reigneth her heart wi1hn; One alone by night and day.
 Moves her spirit to hate or pray.
 Because man has placed a mar riage ring upon woman's finger she should not take 1t for granted that his love for her is so blind he will never be able to regain his normal eyesight that is, to see her as other folks see her, with all a lovers delusions swept aside.
 Though he is safely in the matrimo- nial net, wife should not take it for granted that her efforts to please should be cast aside carelessly as a pair of old gloves that have had their use and are no longer needed. No matter how domesticated a woman may be, the masculine heart is usually of different fiber He could never be- come accustomed to the dull monotony of the home day in and day out. He has his business life and interests out side. where he is brought in contact with clever men and still cieverer women. He may meet them at bis of

CULTIVATION OF AN ORCHARD
Chief Aim Is to Secure Fastest and Thriftiest Growth of Trees
 Also to Hold Moisture.

The main object in the cultivation of young orchard is to secure the fastest, thriftiest possible growth of the trees, without unduly endangering them from disease attacks, or from winter-killing occasioned by going in- to the winter in an immature condi- tion. Continuous cultivation through out the growing season best conserves moisture and liberates plant food. These conditions make for splendid growth in the young trees. A good supply of humus should be kept in the soil of young orchard at all times, by dressing with stable manure or growing and working in green ma nure crops.
 Sod culture, especially the growing of tough bluegrass sod, is unfit for young orchard, except on very heavy, rich land. In such a place it may be advantageous It must also be resorted to occasionally, in steep locations, to avoid washing. Clover or timothy should be used in prefer ence to bluegrass.

USING DYNAMITE TO
 REMOVE OLD STUMPS
Advantages of Its Use for Clear ing Land of Large Obstacles
 Are Very Great.

Recent investigations of the use of dynamite for stump removal show that it is fully as economical as any other method with the possible exception of very small stumps, and for large stumps the advantages in it's use are very great.
 In the western or coast states where large trees are the rule, dynamite is commonly employed for this purpose and practically every farmer or farm CTS boy is practical plaster. They handle this high explosive without ac- cident because they have found it no more dangerous than gasoline. It Is simply one of those things that has to be handled with horse sense and or. dinary care. The process Is very sim pie A hole is bored underneath the stump with large dirt auger, the hole grees to the ground level. The dyna- mite cartridge is primed with full minate cap which has been crimped on the end of fuse and the car fridge is then showed down to the bot tom of the hole and tamped in with some damp earth A match is applied to the fuse which is long enough to give the farmer plenty Of time to get away for 150 feet or so, and shortly after there is boom and the stump is blown clear of the earth and shat tered into firewood. Investigation of the hole shows the roots torn loose from the earth for a radius of about two yards from the stump and nearly all the dirt that surrounded the stump roots has fallen back into the hole after the blast. The stump parts them selves are found free from dirt as the blast clears them off completely. The roots are left in such shape that a few blows with an ax will free every one of them, so that blow can be run over the old location of the stump in almost every case without any diff ficulty whatever.

Some operators cover the entire wound, scions and all, with melted wax. Where the bridged portion is below or near the ground, many opera tors conserve moisture by covering the gratis with earth.
 Bridging From the Ground.
 Where the wound is so large as to make ordinary bridge grating impos. sible, another method of bridging may be used. Two-year-old trees are plant. ed about the base of the injured tree and their tops grafted into it's trunk first been cleaned as in the other meth. od. AS the tops of the small trees are too large to manipulate readily in the manner described for scions, V-shaped vertical grooves extending through the cambium are cut just above the to be treated. The tops of the small trees are shaped to correspond with these grooves. The two are then ac- curately fitted together in such a man. ner as to bring the cambium of one into contact with that of the other. Small nails may be driven through the tops of the trees into the trunk, to hold the parts firmly together. The wounds incident to joining the tops of the small trees to the trunk of the large one should be we'll covered with wax, to prevent drying out Sometimes cord is tied around the trunksto aid in hold. ing the tops of the young trees in proper position.

DRESSING THE TREE WOUNDS
Surgical Attention Should Be Given to Bruises at Once So That They
 Will Heal Quickly.

If tree has been parked or bruised or injured so the bark is broken, it should be given surgical attention so 1t will heal quickly and disease kept from the wound With clean knife cut away the loosened, injured bark and smooth up the wound in the wood. If decayed, remove the decay.
 It is wise to disinfect with bordeaux mixture or corrosive sublimate one ounce to seven gallons water This is very poisonous so do not let any animal drink it. To keep the insect and weather out of the wound, fill the cavity with grafting wax, if small wound, or with cement if large cavity.
 White lead paint is good for cuts or wounds. Whenever a large limb is removed the stub-which should nev- CT be stub-should be painted with white lead.

SPRAYING FOR APPLE BLOTCH
Bordeaux Is Only Mixture That Ef- fleets Satisfactory Control--
 Schedule for Treatment,

By F. W. FAURoT, Missouri Experiment
 Station.)
 Apple blotch is a disease which oc- CUTS on the twigs, the foliage and the fruit. Infections may begin as early as three weeks after blooming and continue well into the summer. Usu- ally, however, infections occur mostly from four to six weeks after bloom ing. It is necessary that the first spraying be on the trees by four weeks after the blooming. Bordeaux mixture is the only mixture used thus far that effects a satisfactory control, and in those orchards where blotch is known to be present to a seriously damaging extent it is the only mixture on which it is safe to rely. In cases of moderate infection a single spray ing may be sufficient, but usually more than one is necessary.
 A dependable schedule of treatment consisting of three applications, is given here.
 First-Three or four weeks after blossoms fall bordeaux mixture (six pounds of blue stone, eight pounds lime, 100 gallons water), to which is

Yet, in the face of the lessons they were supposed to have learned, how lntolerant they are, ofttimes, concern ing the love affairs of their children. Love for their sons and daughters and cool, sensible judgment have upset many youthful love craft when they collided.
 Many a parent has made strenuous objection to the suit of a young man who was earnestly enamored of a girl, for no less a reason than he lived in distant town and the daughters mar riage to him would mean separation from her, seeing her but rarely, having her pass out of their lives, as it were, save for her letters, which might come to them like angels visits few and far between. The daughter is bidden to discourage his attentions, choosing in- stead suitor in her own home town.
 It is not so easy to estrange hearts that were intended for each other. The girl may bend to the decree of par ental authority, which she believes to be duty, but it is quite another matter to become as interested in any other man. True love cannot be easily up- rooted from the heart The girl may dutifully give up the one man who ap- peals to her. This may content the parents, but what about the daughter She may live thereafter a life of single blessedness uncomplainingly, yet in the after years, even though the par ents may realize they were in grave error in influencing her life, that does not atone for the weary years she must pass after they have left her.
 It is clearly the duty of parents to give this side of the subject careful study. They have had their youthful romance which culminated in mar riage, therefore they should put them selves in the daughters place and reason out the disappointment their disagreement to approve of her choice means to her.
 Providing lover is worthy and the girl cares for him, even though it means separation-aye, the breadth of the world apart-each parent should be brave enough to meet the situa- tioD. Young folks must marry and go their ways. It will be 80 until the end of time. If taking daughter long distance away from them is the only objection they can have against wooer it is poor peg to hang preju- dice upon. Those who have been mar ried long years and brought up their families have had their happiness Why should they deprive their off spring of theirs? Sacrifices must not crowd out love.
 Those who stand in the way of hon. orable, worthy wedlock may have much to think over and regret in the after years. Not one sweet, affection ate daughter in thousand would take the love reins in her own hands and marry in defiance to her parents wishes. She would feel that to do this would cloud all her after marital hap piness.
 Parents. think it over! She has many years to live. Make her life bright if it is in your power. The sac rifice of losing her to a good man is by no means bitter one.

Preserve the Trees.

An oak or hard maple cannot be re- placed except through long years of growth. It therefore behooves us to think twice before we needlessly re- move one. We should, however, look over our trees often and give what ever pruning or other care is needed.
