Erie Tunes. H. H. Hl.KTZl.KR l"tlls of Mis Trip After Leaving Pittsburg. Spent a Few Days In Chicago; Thence to Nebraska. Inland, Xeb., March 25. 1 left Pittsburg on the 22nd of Febru ary over the Wabash railroad, and in jTO'nir west pnssed through sev I'tunon tunnels within a distance of ilfty miles. Along the road up to Toledo 1 passed through the Ohio oil fields, and saw lots of gas .veils burning. From Toledo to Chicago I saw some very poor land full of svatnps and sloughs. 1 lowever, when we neajed Chica go, the appearance of the country changed, and we saw some fine country. 1 stayed in Chicago several days, and had a very pleas ant visit with my cousin, G. V. Kepner, whom I had not seen for 53 years. From Chicago, I went to Sioux City, Iowa, over the Chi cago, Milwaukee & St. Paul rail road, thence across the Missouri river and on to Dakota City, where I visited my nephew, S. lleikes. I saw on the train quite a number of Indians the first I had seen for many years. They looked very well, and outside the distinctive marks of their race, there was nothing to distinguish them from other people. 1 next went to Wakeheld, Wayne county to see my sister-in-law, Mrs. I. Ueikes, where I spent several days with her and her children. 1 next went to my nephew, Luth er Heikes's, where we had a fam ily reunion of some twenty mem bers, and had a most enjoyable time. 1 am now in the great Corn Belt. Thousands and thousands A bushels are lying in piles in the open, waiting for the top to be reached in the constantly in creasing price of that cereal. My nephew raised 10,000 bushels last season. I next went down to Winnebago on the Indian Reser vation, where I have a cousin by the name of S. Dering, whom I had not seen for fifty years. I lere I saw Indians oy the hundreds. Winnebago contains about five hundred people, and is less than two years old. It contains ele vators full of wheat and the corn bins contain not less thau 50,000 bushels. After staying two days at Win nebago, I went to Lincoln, where 1 saw among many other inter esting things, the residence of Williani Jennings Bryan. He has a nice home. From Lincoln, I went to the home of my sod George, who lives at Inland, Clay county. This is the finest county I have seen in my trip of 2,000 miles. The country is as level as a floor. Here is where you find Peunsylvanians the Ramseys, tho Bowmans, the Polsgroves, the Sheetses, the Lamps, the Campbells, the Fixens, the Bow erses, and many others, whose names are familiar to the people in the East. I tell you, I feel quite at home here. I was up at Hastings in Adams county the other day. It is a nice place, and the land surrounding readily sells for $150 to $200 an acre. The people are hustlers. Stock raising is the principal industry. Hogs sell for $10 a hundred lbs. Cattle, $7.50; corn, 55 cents a bushel; oats, 35; eggs, 18; butter, 25, and horses sell from $100 to $200. Farming pays, here.

Look Here, LadiesI A Western Pennsylvania Editor's Trouble Tho editor of a newspaper in the western part of Pennsylvania who has been regularly publish ing the "Timely Topics" sent out in the Press Bulletin of the Dlvis ion of Zoology of the Pennsylvan ia Department of Agriculture, wrote to Professor U. A. Surface State Zoologist, that he has "trou bles of his own" in the case of one of the best bearing peach trees in his fruit lot The young peaches are shaken from the tree with each wind that blows. He attributed the cause of the drop ping to a condition which can be best described as "declining.1' Gum exudes from the trees. Ilav ing been told to dig for worms, or borers, he did so, and located one or more each time. State Zoologist Surface wrote, id regard to the trouble, as fol lows: "The peach tree which you describe appears to have been in jured by borers. The best thing to do for such pests is to remove them whenever they are present Do this by means of a knife or wire. If there is gum which has brown specks like sawdust, mix ed m it, it is due to the effects of the borer. If, however, the gum does not have such saw dust like material, you may know that the borer is not the cause of its pro duction. Gum may exude from a tree from one of several causes. "An old tree that is injured needs very much to be stimulat ed. You can do this by cutting it back well and fertilizing and cultivating it. You should give a dressing of wood ashaa and ground bono or acid phosphate rock, with some barnyard ma nure added. You can buy a 'com plete' fertiliser of any dealer in fertilizing material, and thus give it a ration more nearly balanced. If possible, loosen the soil around it early in the spring, and, if the weather is dry, water It occasion ally. It may possibly have San Jose Scale on its branches, and this can be determined only by examination with a microscope. If you wish to send specimen to me for examination, I shall be glad to receive thorn and to reply promptly." im fail Li I ii'f - d i I HI' I 11 1 V- t w rv'ST- Vfc.MiL .r'' You want a Spring Suit and, of course, you must have it; you want It stylishly made; you want it of stylish material; you want It to lit; in fact, you want a suit that will be just like those you pet when you go to New York for them.
