What Shall We Flaat ? .From Farmers' Review: The time of tne year is drawing hear when every property owner in the great North west will be asking himself the ques tion. "What, .shall I plant in the or chard?" Ah. that is the great ques tion with tbe tree planters of this sec tion." I, for one. would like to have the .tree planters discuss this question throagh the columns of the Review. By the permission cf the editor, I will give my experience for the past twenty-five years: I have been trying to run an experimental orchard at my own expense. When I first started the orchard I bought everything in the shape of a fruit tree that was recom mended as an iron clad, but they have nearly all passed away. As we cut the dead trees into stove wood, my hoys asked me If it would not be cheaper for me to pay 920 a cord for oak wood than to raise it by planting fruit trees. I have the consolation that I am not the only farmer that has been humbugged into buying fruit trees that die from the bottom up, for the dilapidated orchards bear me witness. Who is to blame for this con dition of affairs? Well, let us use a, -little common sense and we will find "the nigger in the wood pile." In 1871 there were quite a number of good orchards here. In that year the can ker worms made their appearance, and lot 3 years they fed upon the trees. A few farmers sprayed their trees; these saved their orchards. Those who did not spray lost theirs. Those who lost their orchards have been replac ing, but they have no trees like the ones killed by the worms. I asked one of these old farmers several years ago where he bought his trees. He replied, "From a local nursery. I had them dug in the spring and had them planted on my return from the nur sery." He told me that they were col lar grafted in the nursery row on whole roots. These roots were mostly grown from wild crab seed. This was ."before we had any railroad through here. This orchard has not been sprayed, trimmed or cultivated since 1874, and Is not a model orchard because of neglect. The original owner several years ago passed over the silent river. These old orchards that escaped the ravages of the worms were planted in 1841; most of tbe trees stand as straight upright as a line. This is "because they are well anchored with good tap roots. The roots were not damaged by the hard freeze of 1898 99. Such trees bore a fair crop of ap ples in 1900. The up-to-date nurseryman does not fool away bis time trying to grow hardy roots to graft hardy varieties of fruit upon, but sends to France for his apple seeds and seedlings, because he can get them much cheaper there than he can get them in this country. The roots of these French seedlings freeze to death during a winter like 1898-99. In Febuary, 1899, the frost went down into the earth to a depth of six feet; this great depth of frost paralyzed all the roots of French stock upon my farm, such as -Mazzard and Mahaleb cherry, Myrabolan plum and choice French apple roots. All of my apples grown on Siberian and wild crab roots, cherries on Montmorency cherry pits, and plums grown on na tive wild plum roots, came through that trying ordeal with colors flying, with not a dead tree. While of those grown on eastern and choice French hardy (?) roots I lost thousands of trees.. I am so disgusted with this nursery humbug that I have conclud ed to grow my own trees; apples on hardy roots that have withstood our trying climate for 60 years; cherries on stock grown from Montmorency, Wraggs and other hardy cherry pits, and plums from our native plum pits. Upon these roots I will graft the hard iest fruit that grows in my neighbor hood. Now, brother farmers, let us have your experience through the col umns of the Review. Please don't all speak at once. D. F. Thompson, Stephenson county. 111. water. The soil that has a hard-pan dewn a foot cr so is not suitable to its growth if the hard-pan be im pervious to roots. A limy soil is suit able to its growth, and where the land id deficient in lime that article should be supplied. The plant, being a heavy feeder, will no( thrive on land that is deMcient in plant food. It artificial manures of any kind are to be used they should consist principally of pot ash and phosphorous. To give the plant a good start, nitrogenous ma nures are sometimes very serviceable Inpravlaa; Heracs la Australia. In Victoria, in Australia, the agri cultural societies have taken up the matter of horse improvement, and, in a recent convention, proposed some rather severe measures. The Aus tralasian, commenting on the action of the convention, says: "The repart recommends a tax on stallions, but beyond the registration of the animals there appears to be lit tle or no encouragement to horse breeding. The penalty for using an unregistered stallion a fine not ex ceeding 50 for the first offense and confiscation for a second offense Is sufficiently heavy to extinguish all, or nearly all. the worthless sires in the country. But as this drafting of the culls Is not to be accompanied by any encouragement In the way of cheapen ing the services of the registered stal lions it is not likely to encourage horse-breeding to any appreciable ex tent The absence of the cheap sires will have the effect of considerably lessening the number of mares bred from, as the owners will not consider the weeds worth paying the service fee of a good stallion. Getting rid of all the worthless stallions will doubt less prove, a great advantage, but something more is wanted to improve the general horse stock of the country. The plan adopted by the governments of European nations is an excellent one. Stallions of the highest class are purchased, and these are sold to stud owners at a considerable reduction in price on the condition that they serve a certain number of approved mares at a very moderate fee. The owners of mares that If bred to, a good stallion are capable of producing useful stock do not usually send their mares to weedy stallions from choice, but for financial reasons. If the price of good sires were brought within their reach the majority would gladly use high class sires. No scheme that does not provide for cheapening the services of registered stallions to approved mares will do much to encourage the raising of good horses in Victoria. Merely to tax and register those stallions that are proved to be of value for raising good .stock will no more encourage the owners of such horses than It will encourage those who cannot afford to pay a high price for the service of those registered stallions." We publish the above for the reason that we have the identical problem to deal with in this country. Further more, if Australia gets to breeding a high type of horse the horse raisers of the United States will find a strong competitor. We have been shipping horses to South Africa. How many would have gone there had there been an available supply in Australia? We, too, need to weed out the worthless sires. Edward' Italian Blood. King Edward VII.'s Italian descent is from the Duchess Catterina Sforza, of Forli, who, in 1501, played Joan of Arc in defending her castle against Caesar Borgia. Her third husba&d was a Medici, and by him she had a son, Giovanni, the last and greatest of the Renaissance Condottieri. His grand daughter became the Queen of Henry IV. of France and ner daughter the wife of Charles I. of England. By this union the royal house of Eneland could then claim, in equal degrees, descent from the houses of Pluntage net, Tudor, Stuart, Navarre, Medico and Sforza. jy1" .riBTOsg JHlll From Monday to Saturday at every turn in the kitchen work a Wickless Blue Flame Oil Stove will save labor, time and expense and keep the cook comfortable.

Alfalfa la tbe Waat aad East, Alfalfa is a plant primarily adapted to the lands of drouth and sunshine, and up to a very recent date it has been regarded as entirely unsuited to any lands east of the Mississippi river and north of the Ohio. The trials with it In Iowa, Wisconsin, Michi gan, Illinois and Indiana were in the main against it, and the stations as well as the leading farmers of the states named, have advised that it be left alone. But in the states of Ohio. New York and even in New Jersey, alfalfa has been recently grown in some localities with marked success. This has revived the investigations relative to its usefulness In these states usually abundantly supplied with moisture. Doubtless it will be found that there are In all of our states counties or parts of counties far more subject to drouth than are other counties. It naturally follows that such localities have an excessive amount of sunshine and are hence adapted to the develop ment of the alfalfa plant Some of the best farmers in tbe east have found the plant adapted to their local ities and have commenced to grow it for the supplying of the protein needed in their feeding rations. We have no ticed that during tbe last ten years there are certain parts of Illinois far mnrp (tnh1vf to drouth than am ), 1 other parts of the state. If alfalfa cuuiu oe esiauuaiieu iu bucu localities the benefit to the whole state would be great. Alfalfa is not, like red clover, a plant that will endure for two or three years only. It is a perennial, and, once established, can be depended on to grow for a considerable number of years, depending on the seasons and the way it is cut and otherwise handled. In fact in the dryer portions of South America there are said to be fields of alfalfa that bare been growing continuously for the last 900 years. But we are not generally able to get In this climate fields that will stand for all time. There are added elements here antagonistic to such a state of affairs. Alfalfa being a very deep rooter may be grown on land barren to other plants. If there be a partly barren. strip of dry soil with a good water table, ten feet below the surface the long roots of the alfalfa are often able to sustain its development when all ordinary forage plants die out for lack of moisture. - The best soil for the plant Is a sandy loam underlaid at some depth by moist gravel. Saturated land of any kind Is not suitable to It even though It Is a plant that requires a good deal of lire Stock float, Mr. Brazil, an extensive sheep raiser living southeast of Tulare, Cal., has been troubled by the coyotes, four or five men being necessary to guard each band of sheep from them. Mr. Brazil has been using a Winchester pretty freely upon them, but this Is expensive and he has struck upon another plan which seems to be almost as effective and a great deal cheaper. Every other night he goes around the ranch and explodes firecrackers. He finds the noise and the smell of the powder are sufficient to keep the coyotes away for a couple of days. He has tried the ex periment several times and it has proved a success. The Fort Worth Register publishes an interview on cattle conditions In Texas, with Col. S. B. Burnett who recently returned from visiting his ranches In Indian Territory and King county, Texas. He said that in all his long experience in the cattle business in the Indian Territory and Texas he had never seen a more favorable sea son for cattle than this one. On both his ranches, Colonel Burnett reports that cattle are doing as well as he ever saw them. While it is very dry, It is all the better for the range on that ac count, and there is enough stock water to last until April at least There is little fear that rain will come by that time anyway. Contrary to general opinion, tuber culosis, though somewhat rare, is not by any means unknown among horses. There are plenty of cases on record in which deaths have been caused by this disease, and an addition to the list has just been furnished by Mr. J. H. Bennett, M. R. C. V. S., of Bom ford, who contributes to the "Veter inary Record" the details of an inter esting case which came under his ob servation recently. The animal In Question, a half-bred black cart geld- I ing, was 16 years of age, and died In what is known as the "usual course," on October 10. On post mortem exam ination, his abdominal cavity was found to contain a large quantity (at least 10 gal.) of fluid, and further ex amination showed that the animal had fallen a victim to a very bad attack of tuberculosis. How he contracted tu berculosis js a matter of some mys tery, as he bad never been In close contact with cows, nor had he ever drunk any cow's milk. Mr. Bennett's assumption is that the disease was contracted through the animal drink at some public trough or fountain, as the horse was largely' employed In car rying farm produce to the London markets. The farmer is In a position to make more money out of fowls than any other man. He has on his farm a vast amount of food that would go to waste were it not for the fowls he keeps. In the summer time the forays of in sects often provides a valuable ration. One man says that during the' recent incursion of grasshoppers his fowls refused almost all other food. The grain thrown out to then in tbe morn ing was left mostly untouched, and the birds seemed anxious to get out of tbe yards. As soon as free they ran and flew to the fields in which the grass hoppers were numerous and began the hunt for fresh meat, Not Jill they were surfeited with the insect food did they care to touch the grain they couUJ have at will. Fowls so kept have a food that is natural to them and that will give them renewed vigor in the digestive system. The fowls are also good gleaners in the grain fields, and know how to use the winnqwings from the threshing machines. As swine are profitable to run after corn fed steers, so poultry fowls are good to manu facture the waste preducts of the farm Iito something that can be marketed at a: good price. Farmers' Review. MAKES SPRING CATARRH PEOPLE WEAK AND NERVOUS MISS ANNA BRYAN OF WASHINGTON. D. C i W4 ! Miss Anna Bryan, a favorite cousin of William Jennings Bryan, is well known socially in Washington, D.

I have gained in weight I recommended Peruna to, an acquaintance of ours and he is making remarkable progress.

When I began your treatment my head was terrible, all sorts of bussing, chirping aad loud noises. Three months ago I dragged around like a snail; now I can walk as briskly as ever. I am going to go and see the doctor that said I was not long for this world, and tell him that Peruna cured me." Mrs. AL Wetzel. If all the tired women and all the nervous women, and all the women that needed a tonic would read and heed the words of these three fair ladles who have spoken right to the point how many invalids would be prevented and how many wretched lives be made happy. Peruna restores health la a normal way. Peruna puts right all the mucous membranes of the body, and In this way restores the functions of every organ. If it Is the stomach that Is oat of order, and the digestion impaired, Pe runa quickly makes things right by restoring the mucous membrane of the stomach. If the nerves tingle, if the brain ia tired. If the strength Is flagging and the circulation of blood weakened by flabby mucous membranes of tbe di gestive organs. Peruna reaches the spot at once by giving to these mem branes the vitality and activity which belongs to them. The pelvic organs are also lined with mucous membrane which in the female sex Is especially liable to de rangements. Peruna is an absolute specific in these cases. The women everywhere are praising it No other remedy has ever received such un- qualified praise from such a multitude of women. If you do not derive prompt and satisfactory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case and he will be pleased to give you his valuable advice gratis.
