THE OBJECT 013' PRUNING.
Why should we prune a fruit
tree? There are many people who
cast scarcely give a reason for
pruning. If they cannot give reit-
son this is good evidence that they
do not understand Bruning.
You know why we prune the
hedge. It is for the purpose` of
keeping the hedge dense and low.
Why' do we not trim our oaks,
maples and elms? For the reason
glut we desire them to be densely
headed, thus it cannot be said we
tfine our apple trees to hake thein
more beautiful. Should we trim
our elms, maples and oaks back to
make them- longer lived or more
Healthful? No, it is not natural
fct trees of any kind to be pruned
they are. not apt to be so long lived
after pruning nor so handsome to
kok at.
The main object of pruning is to
be able to produce larger and bet-
ter fruit than could be secured
without pruning. If a fruit tree is
filled with branches thickly, the
tree will have twice as much fruit
as it can bring to merfection. If each
year we thin out a few of the
branches we thus thin out the fruit
and at the same time permit the
rays of the sun to penerate so as
to color the fruit and bring it to.

don't think they will keep England
what our fathers and grandfathers
made it. I don't think they will,
even if Chamberlain and company
will let them, which they certainly
won't."
"Tell you what it is," says Usk,
"it all comes of having second
horses hunting, and loaders behind
you out shooting."
"You compound cause and ef-
fect: The race wouldn't'have come

horses and men to load indicate in
England just, what pasties of night-

bacle are knocking at ours. His-
tory repeats itself, which is lament-
able, for its amazing tendency to
tell the same tale again and again
makes it a bore."
"I should like to know, by the
way," he continues, "why English
girls get taller and taller, stronger
