VARIETIES OF FRUIT
FOR HOME ORCHARDS
Selection Is One of Most Imp0r-
tant Considerations.

Growers in His Community
Place Orders Early.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
One of the most important consider
atoms In planting n home orchard is
the selection of kinds Of fruits and
varieties of those kinds which will do
well in the locality where they are to
be grown. While many of the long
established nurseries are selling their
stock through travelling agents whose
integrity is unquestioned, it is better
as a rule for a grower to deal directly
with nurserymen than through agents.
Place orders early and deal only with
reliable n~urserymen.
In selecting varieties a prospective
planter should avail himself Of the
suggestions Of experienced fruit grow
ers in his community, his state agri.
cultural college or the United States
department of agriculture. In Farm
ers' Bulletin 1901, recently published
by the department, the country Is d.
vided into ii districts and the most
desirable fruit varieties are given for
each district. 1t will be sent free on
application.

The first day you start to take this
reliable medicine, impure germs and
accumulation begin to separate in the
blood and are then expelled through the
elminative organs.
In place Of the impurities, the arteries
and veins gradually get fresh vitalized
blood and the action of this good blood
IN the skin means that pimples, boils,
carbuncles, eczema, rash, acne and all
skin blemishes will disappear. Then you
must remember that when the blood is
right, the liver, stomach, bowels and
kidneys become healthy, active and
vigorous and you will have no more
trouble with Indigestion, backache, head
ache.

Firing Charges by Electricity.
The electrical method of firing blasts
is beginning to be extensively used. In
firing charges by this method the fol-
lowing equipment Is needed: One
blasting machine, 300 feet Of double
leading wire to reach from the stumps
to the blasting machine, some connect
ing wire to connect the stumps togeth-
er in a series, and electric detOnatOrs
in place of the caps and fuses used in
ordinary blasting. Firing by electric
ity has many advantages owe the cap
and fuse method. The danger of pre-
mature explosions is greatly reduced
and the danger from delayed explO-
sions is entirely eliminated. Proba-
bly, more people have been injured in
stump blasting by too hasty ~investiga-
ton Of a delayed explosion than from
! any other cause When using the cap
and fuse method, the safe rule to fol-
low when a charge does not explode
as expected IS to keep away from the
locality until the next day. Where
the stumps have been severely burned,
are badly decayed, hollow, have several
large spreading roots or where it Is
necessary to blast stumps so near TO
each other that the explosion of a
charge under ne, stump would loosen
the earth under the adjacent one, the
use of the blasting machine will save
dynamite and result in better work
being done than If the cap and fuse
are used. If the stumps have been
partially burned out by any of the
burning processes previously described,
the roots can best be blown out by fir
chine.
