A. J. Sample is new settler i'll the Tip Top community. A mistake at the cotton yard last year about his name just before the disastrous fire in which nearly all his neighbors lost their cotton, saved his for him. Ne groes were trucking the cotton to where it belonged and he said to them when they came to move his, ''This is Samples cotton" They thought he said, ''This is sample cot ton" so they took it to the sample room, which was not burned, and thereby saved his cotton for him.
 I visited the Ark-wa oil we'll, three miles of Jacksonville, where 1 was hospitably entertained two nights dur ing the Jacksonville fair by Bob Bo- lin and family. Work was resumed on the we'll about a month ago and is progressing nicely. Shannon Tay- Tor is in charge and Shorty Adams does the tool dressing, while Nut Lamb is serving an apprenticeship and Red Haynie pulls the bell cord over Mir. Burkbery's big black mules. The first day 1 was there they had possum and sweet taters for dinner, which were pronounced extra fine by the well drilling crew.
 
 l spent probably the most enjoy able night of the trip at the home of Mir. Ike Johnson, near the Lonoke county line. Kelly played some fine tunes on the photograph, which could not have suited me better had they been especially selected for my bene- fit. One day on the fair grounds l took dinner with Mrs. Ad Paul and two or three of her sisters and broth CT and the last day I was treated to some fine sweet potato custard pie by Mir. R. L. Hanks of Levy and each day 1 got some fine fried chicken and coffee of the ladies at the lunch stand.

 the-- Pea Ridge Pod Man
Enir Rnn1bLeS.

FGtF hdHl0leS.
 The Pea Ridge Pod man did not cease to ramble because of the fairs, but has probably wandered more during that time than ever before, and at the same time he has been learn ing to drive a Ford. This has dis tracted his attention and possibly for that reason you will find his stories even duller than usual.
 I am in Little Rock, some of my notes of last week are at home, so I will skip some of them and proceed to give you advice, which should be worth many dollars to some of you.
 Tue Pedch Tree Borer.
 Now is the time to rid your trees of the borer, which kills more peach trees than all their other enemies combined. As soon as the weather is cold enough 10 kill the flies, which lay the eggs, scrape the earth away from your trees down to and between the main roots. Take the small blade of sharp knife and rim out all the small holes you find, out of which the wax is oozing. Use a piece of baling wire to kill the worms. Have a bucket or can with you to put these trimmings and wax in, and burn 1t all, for 1t Is full of eggs and if you do not burn them they will hatch out and get into your trees again. After you have done this take one gallon of soft home made soap, made of lie which you have leached out of ashes, and stir into it as much sulphur as 1t will absorb, and then place 1t on a stove and heat until it comes 10 boil and then paint your tree roots with 1t. It will also do the body of the trees much good to use 1t on them, but that is not necessary 10 get rid of the borers. Then when through do not pull the earth back to the trees until just before cold weather ends next spring. When you pull the earth back just before the flies which lay the eggs out of which the borers hatch return next spring, scatter on top of the returned earth few slack ed ashes. You should repeat the ap- plication of the soap-sulphur solution during April, May, June and August. IL is sure death to borers. If you are troubled with the San Jose scale add to the above mixture one tea spoonful of turpentine and be careful 10 add no more than the one teaspoon full for it is dangerous and one table spoonful of coal oil and spray or paint your trees with it.
 On Setting Out Fruit Trees.
 Peach trees require a severe prun- ing before setting out which is dan gerous to other trees, so remember that what I am saying about pruning here applies to peach trees only. First, dig your hole and place in the bottom of 1t some of the rich top soil. Use no fertilizer, nor anything else, unless you want your trees to die next summer when the drouth comes. hTen cut off all bruised roots and broken ones and set out about two inches deeper than the marks on the trees showed that they grew in the nursery. Have someone

hold the trees, or else hold them in one hand while you carefully sift the earth with the other hand in between the roots. Fill the hole to the top. then pour a bucket of water in on top to settle the earth 10 the roots. Then fill again to the top of the ground and then tramp the earth down around them and cover again with loose earth. Now cut off the tree knee high and cut every limb off the tree. This is done because part of the roots were cut off in digging the tree at the nursery and there Is not enough roots left to support the top as it grew in the nursery. Some do not prune the tree until after cold weather is over, because there Is not so much danger of the tip end freez- ing if not pruned.
 When I deliver trees or before, I try to supply my customers with printed instructions for setting out all kinds of trees which should be care fully followed. Outside of pruning, the above directions should be fol lowed in setting out all trees unless otherwise instructed. Sunshine is the fife of the peach, but it is the death of the apple.
 The old saying was, All is not gold that glitters, but now we must revise it to say, All is not brass that glitters."
 The dogs love me and fawn upon me, and 1 have just discovered that they love me because the fleas love me better than they. They aregnot bit jealous of the fleas and are much pleased when they hop off themselves onto me.
 l mustered up courage enough to drive my flivver into Little Rock Monday of last week and Tuesday l drove to the Jacksonville fair.
 
 I found that Mir. Casper Mergen- schrorer has recently returned from visit to Germany, where he saw his sister for the first time in forty years. He spent three months there.

 The Ladies Community Club had a quilt which was auctioned off and it was sold for $750 to Mir. Douglas Jacks.
 Primrose Church held bazaar at the community house and an angel food cake, made by our school prin- cipal. Miss Bessie Boehm, was sold to MT. Branch of Earl Frazier. The ladies of the Methodist church ex- tend their thanks to anyone that help ed to make the bazaar a success.
 There was a program each after noon opened with community singing. Talks were made by Mrs. W. P. Me Dermott, Miss Erie Chambers, MT. Mckee, Judge Mover and several others.
 Mrs. Henry Scott and son, Ewell, of Benton, were guests of Mrs. Ed W. Dixon during the fair.

 The C. E. Smith Grain Company of Little Rock offered prizes for the best cakes baked from Orris flour. Mrs. J. N. Wright won first prize on loaf cake, $500; Mrs. T. D. Jacks second prize on loaf cake, a 25-lb. sack of Orris flour. Mrs. Ed Diemer of Fourehe Dam won first prize on layer cake, $500; Mrs. C. C. Me Clain and Miss Selma Hoekstra tied on the layer cakes, so each got a 24- lb. sack of 0rris flour.
 He also let the ladies sign and those who got the lucky numbers re ceiyed sacks of flour, and I failed to get all the names. Those whom remember are Mrs. L. A. Miller, 48- lbs; Mrs. E. s. Dixon, 24 lbs; Mrs. E. s. Dixon, 24 lbs; Mrs. M. J. Zu. Der, 24 lbs; Mrs. Geo. Rouch, 24 lbs.; Mrs. Alvin Hoffman, 24 lbs; Louise Hing, 6 lbs.

 shown very progressive spirit in erecting one of the first teacherages in the state. May more follow her example.
 1 ate dinner with Mir. and Mrs. J. s. Gosnell at Tiptop. They had the prettiest looking and the best tasted sorghum I have ever used. It was made of to me variety of cane l had never heard of before Sugar Glen. He has sold his farm and is seeking a new location.
 Mir. Gosnell says that the work done on the Batesville road is the best he has ever seen done on 1t, and he has been using 1t since l866, when it took him two days to go to Little Rock and return in an OK wagon. On practically all the roads I trav- eled 1 found fresh work had been done and many compliments have been passed on him as being the best judge the county has had. This is the result of the new system of work ing the roads put into practice by the present administration.
 visited one of my friends to whom 1 have sold trees and found his trees doing nicely. For the first time some of the young trees bought of our company have borne fruit and they were more than delighted with its fine quality. They planted their orchard ground to Irish pota- toes last spring south of and adjoin- ing the orchard they planted back to fall potatoes so that that ground had continuous cultivation. The row of trees next to 1t were in full and fresh green foliage, while the other trees have entered the seer and yellow leaf stage, denoting the approach of fall.
 His nighbor who bought trees of me at the same time last fall did not cultivate his trees much and they ha4S not grown any.
 ,4fR0ther neighbor set his trees out inks pasture without any cultivation and the COWS ate them up.
 Another neighbor set his trees out on good soil next to his garden, cul- tivated them we'll and they look bet ter than most two-year old trees. If you wish trees to do we'll, cultivate them like any other crop, and care for them and you can have good orchard.
 A young man whom l was very anxious should succeed with his trees put salt in the holes and all of his peach trees died but one. 1 have never recommended salt for peach trees, nor for young trees of any kind. nor for healthy trees. 1 Irecom- mend it only for trees which have the blight.
 A. H. King at the Box bridge on Bayou Meto gathered 3l loads of corn this year and his boy, Fred, had pumpkin so big he could not lift it, for the Jacksonville fair, but some one stole it.
 Wilb Deimer is the two weeks old son of Mir. and Mrs Henry Diemer, whom 1 met for the first time on this trip. He is very bright and pretty boy.
 The state is building a new tele- phone line to the State Farm for Women. E. J. Snow has the contract. The county will put the Tip Top road alongside of which the line runs in first class condition as soon as the ground gets in condition for work.
