When the leaves roll up and look
yellow, you may be sure there are
worms at the roots. Pour boiling wa

the ground if soap-suds all the better
until the roots are completely satu
rated ; don't be afraid of injuring the
tree, and in a few days you will see the
leaves unroll and turn green and the
tree become thrifty again. I have tried
this remedy for 'more than 23 years and

farmers may take courage) upon the
passage in the senate of the house bill
for the relief of homestead and pre

ture will doubtless shortly make it a
law.
