NEW ORCHARD FOR OLD
GIenwood Man Proves Possibility Of
Bringing Old Trees 10 Life-An
Orchard Can Come Back.

Three years ago, 1914, John Herrick
of Glenwood bought 40 acre orchard
near his home. 1t was 25 years old
wofully neglected, rotten with cank
err worm and so densely planted that
sunlight could scarcely enter.
That year he cut out every other
row of trees and sprayed three times
with lead arsenate and lime sulphur.
That winter he pruned out all the
dead limbs and water sprouts and in
the summer of 1915 sprayed again.
That year he got 500 bushels of apples
which he sold for SLAP bushel. In
1916 he got $500 bushels of apples,
which he sold for S1.62 bushel. This
year he says he expects to get $500
bushels from the revived orchard.
He says his success lies in spraying
and providing plenty of open space
and sunlight in the orchard.

PAGE THREE
THE YANKEE SENTINEL

A yankee stood upon the deck
Behind yankee gun,
He gazed upon the rocking sea,
And marveled at the sun.
There was commotion up above,
And serious words wefe passed,
And out upon the deep he saw
A submarine at last.
The zizzy-zazzy plan was sought
The captain shook with fear,
The yankee at his post laughed loud
A hardy buccaneer! a#
He had the range. A shot rang through
The ocean air like rain;
A moment passed The submarine
Sank swiftly in the main.
And still the yankee sails across
The DEVILS Den in glee;
He knows its not an albatrOs
He murdered in the sea.
He's always ready at the shout
To sink the deathly cram;
When war is nigh he's mustered out
To fight for Uncle Sam.
The yankee of America
The land so broad and free;
The peaceful, unmolesting man,
And terror Of the sea.
