IN COUNTY JAIL
Only One Prisoner Left for People to

From a missionary standpoint con-

JOY the Sunday services which local
authorities have been providing for
seine time past, and it has been au-
nounced that the services will pro-
ably be discontinued-until business
picks up and few get run in.
The remaining prisoner has a good
disposition. He is a foreigner and
although he can't understand enough
English to get much out of the serv-
ices, he has been SO impressed that
he amuses himself now that the 9TH
ers are gone, by transiating the
church hymns into his native tongue
and singing them And he is a good
singer, as has been lots of the men
who have since been liberated, or
transferred"
Nearly all who have been incarcer-
ated since the Sunday services were
inaugurated have gone their several
ways-whether to the penitentiary or
to freedom-singing the songs the
church people have taught them. Some
of them have professed religion, and
have materially changed their habits
of speech and dissipation. Even the

SOME LAUGHABLE BELIEFS
Queer Superstitions Have a Firm Hold
on the Peasants of "White
Russia"

In the most superstitous part Of the
Russian empire, which is known as
White Russia" it is considered un
lucky to meet priest on the road, so
that if that happens to a peasant on
his way to work. he usually goes back
home and takes holiday. but if he
desires to continue his journey, he
adopts a ruse to deceive the evil
spirits. Waiting at the side of the
road until the "batiushka" has passed,
he turns and walks back and across
the road for some distance until he
thinks he has convinced the watching
spirits that he could not possibly have
met the priest on that path. and then
goes on his way with an easy mind.
Witches and wizards are believed
in, the latter-as in Irish legends
often being millers. who, because they
generally live at some distance from
their village. have plenty of opportuni-
ty for intercourse with the devil.
There is no difficulty about this in
White Russia, as all you have to do
is to stand still in a strong wind,
spit three times, and shout Devil,
devil, let me see your tall" He will
then appear.
It is customary in Russia to make
the sign of the cross when yawning
in case the devil should be waiting to
jump in. Evil spirits, perhaps by as
sociation with spirits" of another
kind, are generally believed to enter
by the mouth.

For one half hour he persisted. The
net results were two logs, a broken

indoors and said: MY dear, after all,

THINNING FRUIT A PROFITABLE
PRACTICE.
s. B. SHAW
Maryland Agricultural Extension
SerYica

Thinning is fully as important as
pruning in securing the best develop
ment Of the fruit crop. It not only
causes the development of much finer
fruit, but it is a means for conserving
the energy and vitality of the trees.
Orchards that bear heavily one year
do not, as a rule, produce much fruit
the following year. While trees are
producing d crop of fruit they are also
forming buds for the next crop. Over
loaded trees cannot well develop a
proper number of fruit buds for the
following year, consequently many
trees perform each function in alter
nate years.
In some sections systematic thin
ming has come to be regarded as an
Indispensable practice in successful
fruit growing. II costs but little. If
any, more to thin at the proper season,
than 1t does TO pick the same fruit at
the harvest time. In addition there will
be higher percentage of good fruit,
and more assurance of securing a crop
the next year. The best time to start
this work Is after the season for the
June Drop" rs safely past The
sooner exoeSs fruit Is removed after
this. the b~cter will be the develop
ment Of the remaining fruit.
The deal method of thinning is
practically the same as in harvesting.
Manipulating Is most desirable as it
causes less injury to the fruiting wood.
Another advantage Of this method is
that the best developed fruits can be
left on the trees. For most ideal re-
suits fruits should not be closer than
from four to SIX inches. When first
thinned to this distance they may ap-
pear very scattering and the prospects
will not Look at an good for a profit
