There are three*great ends to he attained in tilling the soil: The conservation of moisture, the kill ing of weeds, and the rendering available of plant food. Moisture is held in the soil by mulching, or covering it with some material, such as straw, for est litter or by the preservation of a dust mulch. The soil mulch being the cheapest is the most desirable. The soil mulch is at tained by frequent and shallow cultivation, and retains the water required by the trees. Do trees need much water? It is estima ted that a good sized apple tree, having 25,000 square feet of evap orating surface, which is not a large estimate would give off 31,- 000 ounces of water per day dur ing the hot season, or say 250 gal • lons. An acre with 32 such trees ■would transpire 8000 gallons or i approximately 64,000 pounds per day which is 32 toms or f ton a tree a day. Trees need and demand as much plant food as any other crop; all that wc render available by culti vation is just so much saved on the fertiliser bill. A judicious use of cultivation and cover cropswill reduce the cost of nitrogen to a minimum. Nitrogen is the most I expensive element of fertility, and I when we can save on that the an nual fertilizer tax on the crop is generally lessened. Cultivation breaks up the soil and exposes more of its surface to the action of the weather and likewise in creases the feeding erea of the roots, thus making it possible for them to obtain more food. Be sides what food may be secur ed in this way, it is generally nec essary to apply commercial plant food in amounts of from 1 to 5 pounds per tree, depending upon the age and size of the orchard. \ good fertilizer for bearing trees should contain from 8 to 10 per cent, of potash; 7 to 9 per cent phosphoric acid, and from l’/2 to 2*/j per cent nitrogen. This fertilizer should be applied in circles around the tree extending out as fast as the spread of trees. There is no use putting it right around the trunk as the feeding roots of the tree are some three or four feet away from the base. The cultivation of bearing or chards may be as follows: If they have been cultivated pre viously and the roots are not too near the surface, plow some six i r eight, inches deep as soon as possible in the spring, then give shallow cultivation until the mid dle of July when a cover crop should be put in. This crop may of oats, rye, or any of the le gumes, with the exception that in peach orchards on sandy land cow peas should not be planted with the possible, exception of the Iron Clad variety. Legumes should not be used it the orchard is making too much growth as they furnish more nitrogen which simulates growth. No grain crop should be allowed to mature in an orchard but should be turned under the following spring and the cultivation continued. In young orchards for some three or four years a clean, hoed crop may be grown, hut a cover crop should be sown at the last cultivation of the hoed crop, and as soon as the trees need all the land they should be allowed to have it. If an orchard is not plowed for several years break the soil a little deeper every year until the desired depth is obtain ed. The first plowing should be only some three or four inch es for if deeper, too many of the feeding roots are injured. t. ii. McHatton, Horticulturist.

Consumotion is, by no means, the dreadful disease it is thought to be —in the beginning. It can always be stopped—in the beginning. The trouble is: you don’t know you’ve got it; you don’t believe it; you won’t believe it—till you are forced to. Then it is dangerous. Don’t be afraid; but attend to it quick—you can do it yourself and at home. Take SCOTT’S EMULSION of Cod Liver Oil and live care fully every way.

The Laugh Cure Laugliter induces a mental ex huiiration. me habit of frequent and hearty laughter will not only save you many a doctor’s bill, but will also save you years of your life. There is a good philosophy as well as good health in thle max , ,m. uaugh and grow fat.” Laughter is a foe to pain and disease, and a sure cure for the “blues,” melancholy and worry. Laughing is contagious. Be cheerful and you make every body around you happy, harmo nious and healthful. Laughter and good cheer make love of life, and love of life is half of health. Use laughter as a table sauce; it sets the organs to dancing, and thus stimulates the digestive pro cesses. Laughter keeps the heart and face young and enhances physi cal beauty. Laughter is nature’s device for exercising the internal organs and giving up pleasure at the s ime time. It sends the blood bounding through the body, increases the respiration, and gives warmth ami glow to the whole system. Il expands the chest and forces the poisoned air from the least used lung cell. Perfect health, which may be destroyed by a piece of bad news by grief or anxiety, is often Te etered by a good hearty laugh. A jolly physician is often bet ter than all his pills. Good Cough Medicine for Children The season for coughs and colds is now at hand and too much eare cannot be used to protect the children. A child is much more likely to contract diphtheria or scarlet fever when he has a cold. The quicker you cure his eold the less the risk. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is the sole re liance of many r mothers, and few of those who have tried it are willing to use any other. Mrs. F F. Starcher, of Ripley. W. Va. says: “I have never used any thing other than Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy for my children, and it has always given good sat isfaction.’’ This remedy contains no opium or other nareotic and may be given as confidently to e. child as to an adult.

Virginia-Carolina F ertilizers are the right kind. The cotton plant cannot feed on barren land. Study your soil. Find out what it lacks. Then apply the necessary fertilization and the results will surprise you. See what Mr. W. C. Hays of Smith Station, Ala., did. He says: “I planted about 30 acres of some ‘gray sandy land’ that had been in cultivation for over 20 years, and used 300 pounds of Virginia-Caro lina Fertilizers per acre, and I expect to gather 30 bales from the 30 acres.” This is why we say it is the right kind.
