G. 2. -We are gardening on Some Do's and Dont's in Setting Fruit Trees. Don't put manure in the holes when setting trees. Orchardists have given manure a thorough trial and condemn' it. If you do use manure, place it on top of tha ground around the tree; but • be sure to scrape it away' before fall. It makes fine mouse nests if you leave -it near the tree. Don't crowd the roots or curve them around the hole. It is far better to cut them off if they are too long. - Don't leave air spaces under the roots; air is fatal to the root growth. Don't • allow the trees to lie in the sun while you are digging holes. Dip the rots in water or, better still, in a pail or tub filled with thick muddy water. If you can possibly spare them, put a few potatoes under each tree around the roots. The rotting potatoes furs nick moisture and some plant food. 'If they grow, let them, but do not at- tempt to dig the potatoes. Don't forget to cutback the branch- es to a length of not over six inches. Cut off all side branches of the peach trees. Do the pruning after you are through setting. Lean the trees a little in the direction of prevailing winds. Don't put sub -soil around the roots. Save the top soil and put it in the bottom around the roots. Don't set out dwarf trees in a com- mercial . orchard. .They are for the city lot or garden. Don't set out standard trees on the city lot. Dwarf treed take up but little room and bear young. Don't buy trees just because they are cheap. A cheap tree is a mighty dear tree. Deal only with reputable nurseries.- - Don't -buy pictures, buy trees. The 'standard varieties need no fancy pic- tures. Don't lot the high price of nursery stock prevent you from setting out some trees. .A year from now your ,money will be gone and you.will not have the trees. : Don't let your age prevent you from setting out an orchard. You are never too old to set trees. Father, set apple trees when he -.was past sixty and lived to eat many, an apple from them, Spray for Aphids.

The story of Joseph is full of vivid color and movement. Amid the multi- tude of its religious teachings let us select these: 1. The discipline and hard knocks of life may tram us for useful service and ripeness of Christian character. Joseph had his share of trouble -the pit, the slave whip • over- his back prison, suspicion, ingratitude -but a last the mostowerffl • office in Egypt (let us callitthe premiership) passed into his hands. ` 2. Two of the poisonous ingredients that filled the cup of Joseph were (a) envy, (b) ingratitude. His brothers envied him and sold him into slavery. Martin Luther 'tells a story of a robin that fed regularly on some bread crumbs that were placed on the window sill. After the meal, the robin hopped to a near -by branch of a tree and sang its carol of gratitude to God for his goodness.

BUILDERS NOT WRECKERS There are two things which ovary farmer 'should keep h mind, pa'- ticularly if he plans on staying in the farming business, One of theta is to make a ,living, and the other is to se handle his land that it will be moxa easy to supply his wants in years to come than it is now. There are too many farmers who feel that the immediate present is tho all-important time. They mortgage the future by 'taking fertility fro their• land to a point where the sof becomes exhausted. Farmers shoal definitely plan some sure and aeon- omic way of building soil instead of wrecking it. This plan should also pay its way as it goes. An agricultural expert makes, in this connection, the following augges-+ tions 1. Conserve rigidly all animal ma- nures, solid and liquid. 2. Supplement them with phosphate):: fertilizers. 3. In short • rotations use more clover, and in long'rotations add nitros genous fertilizers on the hay crop. 4. Use high analysis fertilizers ort 'the cash crop. much as nec- 5. Lime -when and as -essary. We believe that thousands of On.. tario farmers could adopt this prd- gram to their advantage. • Wax for Phonographs. The carnauba, or wax palm, has many commercial uses, but its chief value is its production of wax for mak- ing phonograph records. The best quality comes from the tenderest leaves. They ars out at three different periods during the wax season, which extends from September to March. It takes about two .thousand leaves to• make twenty-five.. to thirty pounds of wax. The leaves are dried in the sun and when thoroughly withered are beaten with flails to remove the wax. The raw produot is melted in boiling water and strained to remove foreign matter. , Welcome the day when great com- munity centres will be erected from the stones of self-centred homes.

We would have less troubles with prices, wages, strikes, unions, cost of living, and similar.. problems, if we could only get two or three simple economic facts through the heads oil more people. The forst is that money is not wealth, and is'to 'be desired: only he., cause it is exchangeable for. real wealth. Wealth Is sugar, shoes,-sciss sors, seeds, soap, straw hats, autos mobiles, amber beads, books, bread, buttons, clocks, cornets, sandy, corns cod-liver oil, and all the other things we eat, wear, or enjoy. The second fact is that the wealth- iest nation is the one that :produces and consumes the largest quantities of all these things. The third is that the happiest na- tion is the one that produces much wealth, and consumes it as evenly, ad possible among all classes. The real trouble at the bottom oil most social unrest is the feeling that a small number of individuals at the top of the social ladder do none of the . producing, and an outrageously large part of the consuming.. This is true. But too many people jinni) to the. wrong conelusion-that the •remedy is to produce less. To have wealth` to be distributed, it must first be pro. duced. After that comes the problerfl of distributing it as evenly as possible; according to what each individual hail contributed toward producing it. . How Do -You Read?
