to avoid light, sandy soils and heavy clays.
 Good nursery stock of suitable kinds and varieties is fundamental to success in fruit growing. A good root system is essential. A tree or bush, as rule, should have several main roots and many smaller ones when received from the nursery. A medium-sized tree or plant for the variety is usually prefer able to very large or underslzed one. Apples, pears, quinces, plums, and cher- ries are best suited for home orchard | planting after they have grown in the nursery for two seasons Peach trees should always be'planted after growing ] in the nursery one season.
 In the north fruits are usually planted in spring early as the soil can be put in suitable condition. In middle attitudes and in the south au- tumn planting is widely practiced, while in some parts of the extreme south planting may be done at almost any time during the winter.
 TO GET GOOD FRUIT STOCK | One of the most important consider | ations in planning a 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-es- | la ablished 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. | rlace orders early and deal only with reliable nurserymen.
 | In selecting varieties a prospective | planter should avail himself of the sug- | gestions of experienced fruit growers | in his community, his state agricultural | college or the United States department of agriculture. In Farmers Bulletin
 ,oC1, recently published by the depart
 n.ent. the country is divided into 14 dis

Working Over Old Clothes

Thrift is the watchword of the nation his year, and one of the most practical ways in which this campaign is bens forwarded is work for the conservation of clothes being done by home demon stration agents of the United States de- partment of agriculture. Economical per sons always have made over materia which had wear left in it. but many who could hardly afford it have bought new garments in the past because of their ack of knowledge of how to remodel old ones.
 Home demonstration agents of the ue- partment of agriculture and the state agricultural colleges do not intend that this shall be the excuse with any in their districts who have old material which is worth remodeling. At Lincoln, Neb. the mayor donated space in the city hall for the work in remodelling clothes. This room Is under the supervision of the home demonstration agent and her as- sistants. When their work takes them elsewhere, it is in charge of trained vol unteers. Posters advertising this work are being used extensively.
 Long tables made from boards ana sawhorses are used to spread the gar nents on. Good patterns and come at tractive made over garments to serve as s,odels are at hand. and advise is give, n how to put to new uses any garments hat are brought in.
 The work is proving both useful and popular
