Planting in tbe spring Is preferred. which will enable the trees to take Arm hold of the earth and to resist the frost of next winter, but planting may be done successfully ln th autumn by protecting the trees so as to prevent the frost from heaving or misplacing them. Select young, healthy and vlglroua trees, and from a reliable nurseryman, sslbls from a well similar ts tndlfpi that in which you Intend to plant spur orchard. The different kinds of apples will depend upon your own choice and the Suitability of soil and climate. I Should advise that the selection be made from the old, tried and reliable : kinds. The distance apart should not be less than thirty feet, so as to allow the trees room to spread their branches and to form a low and spreading head. CIobo planting has a tendency to force the trees to run up, and preventing the fruit from obtaining Its proper coloring from the sun, and making it more difficult to gather the fruit. At the distance of thirty feet apart It will require twenty-nin- e trees to the acre. Before planting the tree, remove all bruised and broken roots by cutting clean with a sharp knife. Lay out your ground in straight lines, so that your trees will be in line each way and at equal distances, thirty feet apart. Wm. Gray. Berry UvUetlo. For December, 1S95. Any Intelligent farmer can grow ripe, luscious strawberries, ready for picking, at two cents per quart. With good cultivation, at least 100 bushels per acre should be grown. Two hundred bushels per acre is not an unusual yield and 300 is often produced. Fruit that can be grown so cheaply and will yield eo much, should be considered a necessity in every family. No one can so well afford to have strawberries, every day in the season, as the farmer. No one can have them so fresh from the vines, so ripe, so delicious, ami at so little post, as the farmer, and yet as a class none have ao few. The cost of placing berries on tbe market depends somewhat on locations and the manner in which it is done. For good berries, carefully picked In clean new boxes, well packed and honestly measured. It may bo estimated by the quart aa follow: Cents per Qt.

The farmer may have his berries at first cost. He saves expense of picking and provides a pleasure for bis wife and children. He saves boxes, cases, packing, freight, exnrees and commission. Every farmer in the country and every owner of a bouse ia the village should grow big berries and lota of them for family use. He may thu have them fresh from the vines in summer, and canned, dried or preserved for winter. There to no better food than ripe fruIL There is none more healthful, and at two or three cents per quart there is none cheaper. A berry gardea for next season should be decided upon at once.

Washington Star: I learned by accident that one of tbe street car conducar tors in Washington was formerly known to me as a member of the state senate of Illinois. I bunted until I found him and he begged so bard not to have tho matter made known, as It would injure him in his old I promised, and then he told me his experiences, which could be made into a column or more of very Interesting reading. He came to Washington soon after the inauguration of President Cleveland in 1893. Supplied with strong letters of Indorsement, he first applied for a consulate, believing that he would enjoy foreign travel. Possessed of a littio money and a sanguine temperahotel ment, ho stopped at a first-claand made himself popular, as he believed, with everyone supposed to have political influence. It took several months for him to realize that he was not going to obtain a consulate', and then he concluded to accept a position in one of the departments. The only one obtainable was that of messenger. But too many of his old friends visited tbe department, and he reslgned, obtaining a position as street car conductor, it took several months to learfi how to save anything out of hto small wages, but now he has nearly enough to buy a suit of clothes and return to Illinois, when he will resign his and open a law office at his old home, trying to tell no more .to his friends than that he has had a position in Washington without going into particulars. ss Si-t- nUsMss Magic Cora OalT."
