In states where the winters are

PLANNING TO SET OUT TREES
Can About Varieties He Proposes
to Purchase.

The farmer who is going to set an
orchard will do well to learn all he
can about the varieties he proposes
to buy, this In regard to their adap-
tation to his soil, and climate, as well
as to their fruiting habits. their keep
ing qualities, and their resistance TO
insects and disease. Widely adyer-
tised novelties should be avoided IN
til they have been tested out by COM
petent judges, for not more than one
in twenty of these is worthy Of gen
eral planting. There is too much OF
tendency among farmer orchard
planters TO set too many trees of early
varieties, desirable enough in limited
numbers, but when it comes TO four or
five Yellow Transparent, Red June or
other fine early sorts, there will be
more fruit on them than dozen fam
lilies will consume, and their place
would better be occupied by some
standard winter sort

PLANT SOME STRAWBERRIES
SnJ Hanoied and Require So Little
Room They Should Be Favored
IN Home Garden.

'frepared BY the United States l,ena-trn.n,
r. OF Agricultural
cAa"perrles are so easily handled
ana require so little room that II only
one OF the small fruits can be grown
IN the home garden they should have
the preference. New plants for set
ing out can be purchased at small
COST from nurseryman, or perhaps
may be obtained free from a neIghbor.
In either case, says the United States
department of Agriculture, the bed
shouid contain some plants known as
perfect-blossom variety, otherwise
the plants Of the imperfect blossom va
riety in the bed will not bear fruit
Strawberry blossoms are Of two
kinds. One kind Is called perfect
staminate, or male, and the other kind
imperfect, pistillate, or female. Some
varieties have perfect blossoms and
other varieties have imperfect blos-
SONS. Those with perfect blossoms
produce pollen which will fertilize both
perfect and imperfect blossoms and
enable them to bear fruit. The vari-
etieS with imperfect blossoms cannot
fruit without receiving pollen from
perfect blossoms.
II both kinds are planted there
should be at least one row Of the per-
fect-blossom variety to four rows with
imperfect blossoms. The nurseryman's
catalogue will specify the kind Of bios
SONS. Set the plants early In the
spring, If possible, so they will get the
benefit Of the spring rains and make
a strong growth. Trim off the dead
leaves and all but one or two live ones
and cut the roots to 4 or inches long.
Spread the roots somewhat and set the
plants the same depth in the soil as
they were before they were dug. Be
especially careful not to set them deep
er and not to get earth over the grow
ing crowns, for this will probably kill
the plants.
The plants may be grown in hills or
In narrow or wide matted rows. For
very small areas, plants set in hills
close together will no doubt produce
the most and largest fruits, but will
eqdire more care than matted rows.
For hill growing. set the plants foot
apart in the row and have the rows
just far enough apart to cultivate
easily, say from to feet; or set two
rows foot apart in double rows and
have a space of or 3 feet between
the double rows. Keep all runners cut
off and give good cultivation, so as to
make extra strong plants.

q Though only half the chicks Matched

Bynost of the losses are preyentable.
according to NJ. A. Seaton of the Mis-
kxouri College of Agriculture.
At the present time under ordinary
Farm conditions the colony system of
kbrooding chicks Is preferable. The
kemperature should be about 100 de-
kxrees Fahrenheit when the chicks are
{nlaced In the brooder, and then grad
nslly decreased to suit the need Of
tthe chicks. II ample room is supplied
3ths chicks will regulate their heat by
2eItber crowdlng closer to the stove or
by moving away.
4 An abundant supply Of clean, fresh
Svster should be kept before the chicks
IN all times In some form OF suitable
srinking fountains. Do not put the
%water in an open vessel, such as
aucer, or the chicks will get Into 1t
nd become chilled.
Il Feeding is a very important factor
n chick raising. Do not feed the
,bick until 1t is fifty hours old or old
n. as the yolk is taken into the chicks
body lust before 1t Is Matched and SO
mple food Is present for some time.
rbe first feed should be composed OF
few grains of clean sand or fine
ehick grit, fed In fat pan or spread
N a cardboard. This should be fol-
oved with a feed Of rolled oats and
bread crumbs, and for the first few
,ys of the chicks life they should be
dyen three or four feeds Of rolled
bats and one feed of hard-boiled eggs.
The rolled oats should gradually be
replaced with some form Of grain mix
lure. either cornmeal, chick food or
nv form of fine grain mixture. A
hry mash composed Of equal weights
h bran. cornmeal and shorts should
De added to the ration at the end OF
,he first week. This mash should be
{ led sparingly at first and then grad
2hally increased. Feed little and often,
fAnd feed all the feed In dry form.
81 Milk is an excellent feed for chicks

#bly of It at all times. 1t prevents
many intestinal diseases, supplies vi

BOY SCOUTS AID POLICE

What has been termed zone Of the
most dramatic phases OF cooperation
between the scout and the public In
the whole history Of scouting" has
become an everyday reality, and more
than 10000 boy scouts OF Greater New
York now have opportunity to become
official guardians Of public safety. The
new plan Of cooperation Is called
boy Scout Safety Service" and has
been inaugurated by the safety COM
mission Of the New York police depart
ment and the Boy Scouts Of America.
The duty Of the scouts will be to lend
direct aid to the police officers In the
protection Of life and In carrying out
the city's safety program. Before be-
Ing enrolled a scout must pledge him
self to work faithfully In promoting
the objects Of the service. He will
then be officially designated as g boy
scout safety aide and viii be entitled
to wear a button bearing the words TO
that effect.

children are safely escorted across the
street at dismissal time and started on
their way home. The scouts will also
supervise playground activities during
recesses. They will act as aides 10

be prepared TO render first aid in emer-
gencies. Another duty will be to cor

work. All accidents, hazards. such as
dangling wires, unguarded manholes,

The boy scout safety service has
the firm backing Of the deputy com

Not continued.
You know we flowers are Ike that.
l do hope we're never rude because Of
IT. At least, we try never to be.
you see, sometimes some one will
go up to flower and will speak to
that flower by name the flower has
never really known 1t had.
ITO be sure. people make mistakes
and call flowers by their wrong names.
They forget the names Of flowers just
as they forget the names Of people.
ut is quite, quite easy 10 understand
that they would do this.
But | mean that they often speak
20 flowers by names which the flowers
somehow feel are names which they
really own and yet which they don't
know themselves.
Now, there are the gorgeous pink
fowers-Mountain Laurels. They're
also called Calico Bush flowers.
And Pink Azalea flowers are also
called Pinksters They rather like the
name of Pinksters better than the 9TH
er. They say it is so simple a name,
and that it sounds like the woods and
not like a greenhouse.
"And Pinksters do love the woods
But, as l say, We flowers always
try to be very polite as we're called by
our different names and we try to smile
our nice how-do-you-do's back at
people.
My other name is Mouse-Ear. Isn't
that funny Manner
"Oh, yes" laughed Fairy Princess
Joy, that is q funny name. l don't
think I've ever heard you called BY

Il have been called By it." said the
Forget-Me-Not, but not very often.
And, as l say, l may have other names.
Some other members Of the family
may know of them, but at the time
can only think Of my usual name Of
Forget-Me-Not and my other one Of
do you wonder laugh or smile to

One of the most interesting state
ments yet made in connection with
Stella Vitae, the remarkable treatment
that is bringing such great relief to
suffering women in Texas, is that made
a few days ago by Mrs. c. r. Davis,
residing at 1851 Fourteenth St, Bir-
mingham, who says:
"There's no doubt about it, Stella
Vitae is the greatest treatment on earth
for weak, rundown women. 1t has
made an entirely new person of me and
l firmly believe il it hadn't been for
this wonderful preparation, would GER
tainly have had to submit to an opera

Il was in a miserable condition and
at times would have to have q hypo.

pains I had. Nobody knows how l suf-
fered with headaches and backaches
and pains around my stomach and in
my legs. They would almost drive me
wild.

on my stomach that made me so dizzy

from any druggist and is sold upon the
positive guarantee that IL it fails to
bring relief the purchase price will be
refunded.
