The Canadians have recently erect ed a monument to a tree It is a marble pillar and it maks the site on which grew a famous apple tree. The story is that, about a century ago a man who had come to settle in Can ada found a wild apple tree which bore so well that he cultivated it and gave it his own name, Mcintosh Red This apple tree became famous, md seeds and cuttings have been sent out to many districts. Hence the pillar to mark the spot where the original Mcintosh tree grew.

THE BLACKBERRY PATCH

It seems that some people are al ways puzzled to know just how to manage a blackberry patch. There are several ways the young vines are managed. In some cases one can go to a big expense in other cases one can manage them on a cheap scale.
 Over in North Carolina and New Jersey they are nearly always grow on a rtellis. l do not understand why this is. In this country the whole patch is often moved down and the new growth is cultivated for the next year crop. If they are moved they should be moved as soon after the berries are picked as possible. l doubt the advisablity of moving real late berries because it is liable to weaken the new growth to scuh an extent as to make the next crop short. As far as l am concerned l do not mow the vines at all.
 | grow mostly McDonald Early Wonder and Austin with a few othel kinds These make such slender vines they will always rot before the next season. Most of our Texas varieties of berries run on the ground the first year after being set like deWberries. But the Mcdonald becomes more up right the second year. It does not do any good to pinch them back the first year, but the second year when the new growth gets about two and one-half feet high the patch should be gone over and the tips of the vines pmched off. This causes the new vines to branch out Also more lew growth will start up from the roots. Sometimes as high as 20 canes can be made to grow making an immense bearing surface.
 The best blows to plowe them with is the common heel sweep. The little one horse spring tooth cultivators are also good. In fact they should be cul- tivated about like corn or cotton. You can raise a big crop of berries and get by with very little cultivation, but you raise a great deal bigger crop by giving good cultivation. If they are fertilized l find nothing better than bamyard manure But cottonseed meal would be good also any kind of
 
 good vegetable fertilizer.
 The first year after berries are set peas or beans or any other garden crops can be grown between the rows. The next year it will pay very well to plant one row of peas between the berry dows. l prefer the clay peas for this purpose. This year on some deep sand I will grow June corn between my berry rows,
 Our main berry crop was soon over with this spring. The McDonalds and Early Wonders all got ripe right in a bunch. Not over 10 days time elapsed before the last got ripe after the first got ripe. This caused husi- ness to pick up for a while. But never before did 1 see such fine her- ries. Some of the McDonalds were nearly two inches long. The Austin were hardly as large as usual, but there were iots of them. am more thoroughly convinced than ever that blackberries if managed right will pay much better than strawberries J. E..

It is surprising to learn how many expressions used commonly yoday were derived from sailors slang. To "throw overboard' rid of something un- desirable-is clearly nautical and so is "close quarters;" but few realize that "sky scrapers" was originally sailors slang, says Answers, and that first rate" second rate" and third rate' belong to days of wooden fighting ships and were used in their classification We also speak of sailing under false colors,' going on the rocks" steering clear;' we say high and dry" sailing against the wind,' and Lowering our sails"

The Florida Growers and Shippers
League has begun action before the
Interstate Commerce Commission to
secure more equitable rates on pine
apples and oranges from this State to
various points in Georgia, Alabama,
Mississippi, Tennessee, Kentucky and
Illinois. While the rates complained
Of have been in effect several years,
the league believes them to be exces-
sive and discriminatory, hence its
bringing the matter before the Inter-
state Commerce Commission.
The league recently secured suspen-
sion Of the increased rates on citrus
fruits and pineapples to the same
general territory described in it's new
complaint, which suspension will ap-
ply until the commission shall have
made thorough investigation of the
matter at issue. 1t is understood that
the commission will very shortly as
sign that case for hearing, and in all
probability Tampa will be designated
as the place of hearing. The league
has requested the commission to set
down for hearing the later complaint
Of the existing rates to Southeastern

What Shall We Do With EN-.

Something over a month has now
elapsed since college bred youths
and the college bred girls have been
thrust upon an unsympathetic world
to hustle for q living. And among
tne first things these young men and
young women are made to realize IS
that the average business man does
rof place as much confidence in a
college education as did 5he profess
sors, the parents Of the students, or
the students themselves. The ques-
ton put by the employer is not,
what do you know" but What
can you do?"
An Englishman once sauntered into
a group of cowboys engaged in a
heated discussion. To his amazement
he found that, instead of politics
for it was during a presidential cam
paign-they were arguing about
Greek root. Almost every mothers
son Of them was a college graduate.
Now it is possible, but not probable,
that familiarity with Greek and Latin
may make a man a better cowboy
than one drilled only in the "three
Rs" but having long acquaint-
ance with the habits of cattle and
the lay Of the land. Yet it is safe
to say that the owner of the ranch,
placed mere reliance on the expert
enCed iI.iteratC than the inexperienced

A great many people as well as Mr..

are going to count him out and Knott

evidence of fraud and the strong SEN
timent all over the state. ] thought
so, too, until q few days ago, and the
more l think about it and seeing the
sentiment throughout the state grow
ing and waving hot against it and
many Of Knots former supporters
coming cut and openly denouncing
Knott and those backing him in his
FIGHT and declaring their support for
Cats. I cannot believe that in the
fayc Of all this that the courts would
have the face to do it. Take, too, in
consideration that if they do, they will
have reversed some Of their own for

 It is unusual for Easter to be stormy, or even cloudy, but it was probably just the weather needed. Probably a few were deterred from attending church services and others were suffering from colds, but there was a good attendance at 3 o'clock where the decorations were the usual Preston, Brown, Allen memorial flowers supplemented by potted plants from Hillside arranged artistioally by Mrs. Smith and the church had never looked more lovely. The large plat form was used and the children of the elementary department were seated upon it in their little chairs and made a pretty and inspiring display. The title of the Easter program was Easter Victory, and the eager cheer. fitness with which the little people participated was encouraging for the young lady teachers who had trained them. The exercise by Mrs. Reed $ class of nine young girls was partic- ularly pleasing. The pastors address was fitting and excellent. Miss Dun. ming led the singing with her usual enthusiasm. There was a solo by Miss Gertrude Holt of Stafford Springs who was a week end guest of M iss Pratt, who accompanied her upon the piano. Taken all together it emphasized the great fact as such occasions always do that the children are the hope of the world and that too much can not be done in the way of Christian training and seed sowing, in their impressionable years. Taken altogether it was a very pleasant Easter church. wise if not weather wise.
