ORCHARD NOTES.
Just how to prune a fruit tree Is not
easy to toll Kach tree must be
pruned to suit clictimstances. The
principal thought must bo to glvo It
light, air, a good form, and prevent Its
growth so It will split opait some day.
For Instance, train tlio young treo so
It will not spread Its main branches
nt one point. "Open the top" Is tho
cry of most primers, and a good one.
Once every jenr, sometimes twice,
wo have to tell you to wait for a good
soaking rain and then throw a couplo
of forkfuls ot straw manure nround
ovory newly planted tree on the placo
Do It first chance Don't nsk why
go do It.
Old I'etor Tumbledown lets his
orchard glow Into a tough sod, and Is
surprised that his neighbor, who docs
not, has larger and liner fruit than
ho. Ho does not seem to know that
tough sod will not do for nn orchard.
When a twig of jour tree appears as
as If covered with ashes, look shorp
for San .loio scale; also, If when the
bnrk of Infected twigs Is Jcroped on
oily jellowlsb liquid appears on tho
surface.
If any fiult should bo thinned It Is
tho plum. Nature lieielf, tecognlzing
that Ibis f i tilt Is pi one to ovorncar,
sheds fomo fruit In oaily stnumor.
This Is not enough, however, and tho
grower should continue the process af
ter tlio Juno drop.
Muzzle tho horse In tlio young orch
ard and tlo up the single trees with
fertilizer bags.
Frequent harrowing will destroy
weeds by killing tlioiu while still very
young and tender.
Ict no grain ripen near a young
tree.
Don't fotget to go to a picnic occa
sionally this summer, It Is not time
lost. Olvo tho women and children
the recreation and change which is es
' sontial to their woll being. Tho farm
er who Is so "praetlrnl" that ho docs
not bollee In rccioatlon Is practically
Idiotic in his blindness Ho gets a
fair share of change and recreation
for himself In his weekly or semi
weekly trips to town where ho gos
I sips at the stores. Let him be wlso
enough to give his family tho samo

GRAVEL AND SHELLS.
Gravel Is valueless unless It Is
slinip. As soon as tho fowl rounds oft
a sharp substance In the gizzard. It In
voided; honco, hens prefer sharp
shells to round grael. The teason
they eat more shells or mote sharp
grit of any Mud when they aro lay
lug Is because mote food Is then re
quired, nn.l consequently theie Is bet
tor digestion. If an egg lias specks
or llakeB ot lime on the shell It does
not Imply that It Is due to feeding oys
ter Hholls, ns tho same thing occurs
when no oyster shells are given. It
may also bo duo to the food As a
iiilo such hens nro fat. Sotuo kinds
of gravel aro of limestone and of o
nctly tho snme composition as oystot
shells
A man who handles mote horses In
ono way and anothei than any one
else 1 know of, told me tho other day
that ho never stilkos n horse a blow
with n whip, and jet horses always,
obey him. It Is the man who Is al
ways cutting and slashing with his
whip who has 111 tempered and dan
gorous horses.
POCKET GOPHERS.
I havo boon over my Holds this

Speaking of extravagance, Judge
I'.nker failed to tell his audience of

Cleveland lucieased the national debt

Judge P.iiUei complains that the
expense of the udmliiistiatlou under

government is paying tlio expense in
cash instead of adopting the Cleveland
plan of borrowing money in times of
ptofound peace.

A CONTINENTS NAME.
iucrlcit 2vul I.'uiuml Aftt-r Vpuicl, Says
u Historian.
That America derives its name from
Amerigo Vespucci has long been re
garded as a certainty. Now, however,
a historian comes forward and as
sures us that tills. 13 not tho case.
This historian Is RIcardo Palma, di
rector ot the National Mbraiy of Lima,
Peru. In n book which has Just been
published he insists that America was
not named after Amerigo Vesnuccl. but
that, on the contrary, Amerigo Vespuc
ci was named after America Senor
Palma, who has studied tho subject
for years, maintains that Vespucci's
tlrst name was Alberlco. "The name
'America,' he says, "Is derived from a
place in .Nicaragua, being the lu.me ot
a hill In the province of C'hnnvoles.
Kurthermore, the penultl-nnte syllablo
'Ic' Is very often found In the worda
used by the Indians of South America
ni.d by the patives of the Antilles.
The syllable Itself signifies something
large nnd lofty, and is found in tho
names of non-volcanic mounta'ns."
He fuither points out that Columbus
did not use the word "America" In his
Iftters when ho referred to tho events
of Ids first voyage "It Is more than
probable," he cnntinn-o, "that ho
learned through one of ! Is attendants
of the dlscovcrey of gold by some na
tives In a place called America. In
this way it s llkojythat thennme grad
i ually became known tb-oughout Eu
rope. At that time t'-o only goo
graphical account of the Western Hem
isphere was the ono by Alberico Ves
pucci, which was pub'l-hed In Latin In
I "'03, and In fjerman In 1508. Geogra
phers presumably came to tho con
I elusion that Alberico h ! given the
I name America not merely to a slnglo
hill or mountain, but to the entire
country When tho first map of the
continent bearing the tltlo 'Province
, of Amorica' was published In Ilarce-
lona in IC22 Columbus nnd his com
panions were long dead, and thoro
was no ono to protest against tho mis
use of tho namo. Furthermore, thore
was no one in all Ruropo who boro
the namo Amorlgo nnd, as Vespucci's
name was Alberico, geosraphprs and
historians would surely have given tho
new continent this namo if thev had
desirod to honor hi in In this fashion.
Newly discovered cottntri'H were only
named after roverolgns, i we see In
tho case of Georgia, Louisiana, Mary
land and tho Philippines, and when ex
plorers did glvo names to countries
they selected thoso of their own fam
ilies, as wo see In the enso of Vancouver
and Magellan. Tho origin of such
places as Columbia and Colon can also
be tlearly traced."
