How to Increase the Yield of Fruit
Increased fruit crops are more often the restfff of good manage
I merrt than of good luck.' Fruit trees and fruit plants need a liberal
■supply of '
Virginia- Carolina
Fertilizers
The trees absorb plant foods—that is, nitrogen, phosphoric acid
and potash—from the soil just the same as any other crop. Experi¬
ence has shown this over and over again. This truth has become so
well recognized that “ return to the land what the tree removes if you
would expect the best results ” has become an axiom with the best
growers.
Apple, pear, peach, orange and other fruit trees soon respond to
careful fertilization. But be sure to use the best fertilizers.
“I made a test with other companies’ fertilizers,” says Mr. H. O.
Lowry, of Manatee County, Fla., “and yours proved to be the best.
The yield where I used Virginia-Carolina Fertilizer, was just twice as
much as where the other two companies’ fertilizer was used.”
Hundreds of users say Virginia-Carolina Fertilizers are cheapest
because of their good qualities—give better satisfaction and quicker
results.
Many facts of great interest and value to fruit growers are pub¬
lished in the new 1909 Farmers’ Year Book, a copy of which will be
sent free on application to any of our sales offices.

GREASY MONEY
Much interest has been aroused
throughout the south in recent ut¬
terances of Bishop Warren A. Can¬
dler m, regard to certain educa¬
tional conditions. Bishop Can¬
dler. former president of Emory
college, and well and favorably
known here, has taken a very ad¬
vanced, as well as bold stand, in
regard to gifts being made to edu¬
cational institutions by Rockefel¬
ler, Ogden and others
Last week Bishop Candler, while
presiding over the conference at
Evergreen, Ala., made a few re¬
marks which outline his attitude
as follows :
Just before the adjournment of
the Methodist conference, Bishop
Warren A. Candler sounded a note
of warning in the following
words!
< i You have just heard two
speeches on the subject of the duty
you owe to your educational insti¬
tutions. I am not talking to
Methodists only, but to Baptists
Presbyterians and Episcopalians.
I want to impress upon you that
your educational int'erests are im¬
perilled,
11 Andrew Carnegie and John D.
Rockefeller have separately con¬
tributed an immense amount of
money, which will, in the aggre¬
gate, amount to $68,000,000, and
their purpose is to dominate the
educational interests of this entire
country. They are seeking to get
it under their control, not only the
denominational colleges of this
country, but they are also trying
to direct the non-sectarian and the
state institutions, and by the
bribe of this enormous sum of
money, they have already partial¬
ly succeeded.
“These northerners are coming
south to teach the southern bar-.
barians new and strange theories.
I wart us to say to them right now,
and to John D. Rockefeller espec¬
ially, that we do not want any of
their ideas, any of their theories,
any of their advanced civilization,
any of their suggestions, and not
a greasy penny of their money,
We will remain in our barbarity,
and we will entorce our laws, and
inculcate our ideas without any
impertinent suggestions from
them. Tell thetn to stay at home
and teach their own people: teach
their , . juries . to punish . , crime, which , . ,
they are not doing, and let us alone,
We will, and do, punish crimes.
Two murders were convicted in
Tennessee the other day, and they
convicted the night riders, too,
but three murderers in New York
and two in Boston go unwhipped
of justice.
“ We do not want their money,
because they are hostile to the
family . relation, the basts . of
very
our civilization. They have an
improvement on this relation
which God Himself established,
and would substitute therefor a
system of free-loveism. The pro¬
fessors in these new-idea gol!eg p s
alsd ifeatih a socialistic doctrine
that has never had tolerance iu the
south.”
Bishop Candler’s address pro¬
duced a profound seusatioo.

THEY HAVE FINE
CHICKENS, SURE
In discussing the proposed poul¬
try show a few days ago Otis Adair
and F. W. Simmons, two of the
well known Covington fanciers
aroused considerable interest when
Mr. Simmons said:
« 1 My hens want to lay so much
that I am arranging to furnish
them with lamps so they oan lav
at night.”
“I am going to ask the city.”
said Mr. Adair, “to move the
electric lights from near my house
because my hens are already lay¬
ing themselves almost to death.”
C $ But you ought to see my in
cubator running,” said he by way
conciliation.
4 ( Huh ! I told you your oid in
eubator was no account 11 said
Mr, Simmons, “you ought to see
mine set. i >

in such shape that they would be

persed.
Old Wheel of Fortune.
In the village church of Comfort,
ntar Portt-CToix, iu western Brittany,
ts a refy good specimen of the now
rare “wheel of fortune.” It is made of
Wood, with a row' of bells on its outer
rim and pivoted between a couple of
rough beams, altogether very primitive
workmanship. By means of a cord at¬
tached to a crank the wheels can be
made to revolve and set all j bells
a-jangiing. I have often heard that
the peasants believe that it has mi¬
raculous power of healing when rung
over the head of a sufferer who has
plficed a sou in the box to which the
'rope is padlocked. I received remark¬
able confirmation of this belief, for
: while making a photograph a well to
i do sailor’s wife and her husband came
into the church and looked round. The
woman asked me if I thought there
could be any truth in this belief, as
her* child was very backward in learn¬
ing to talk. Her nurse, who came from
those parts, had advised her to bring
the baby and ring the bells of Comfort
over his head, when he would be sure
to talk. As she was passing she had
looked in to see if it was worth trying!

I Never having taken a sea trip. Mr.
• conceived the idea of
Cot>b one <jay
making a voyage to New York. Ac¬
cordingly he sailed from Boston in a
small schooner. The first day out a
storm was encountered and Mr. Cobb
became violently sick, but after sev¬
eral hours he mustered up courage and
strength to look out upon the troubled
waters.
As lie looked from the side of the
little ship up the trough of the sea it
seemed very smooth to him. The eap

at the wheel and, raising his vofee
above the din of waves and wind,
shouted:
“Man, man, keep in the ruts, keep in

Wcrksd It Off.
Just what nk.y happen to a man who
Isn’t strictly honest was illustrated on
a street car a few days ago, A man
hahuyu the conductor a dollar and
asked for a strip of tickets. He Re¬
ceived his five tickets, and th-cD the
conductor fumbled ar?und for change
and managed to make a “mistake.”
He handed the man two half dollars
instead of 75 cents. The man put
away the money without saying a
4rotd and in & couple of minutes work
***«? to the front of the jar and
got off. “Say, conductor,” said an in¬
terested observer, “did yon know you
didn’t give; that' man the fight

placently. “That’# ill right,” be said.
“If he’d’ b^on honest’ and Returned that
