All should be present. neath the bark. They should be remov- ed by hand, using a knife blade,and cut- ting the bark lengthwise, but not crosswise. After they are removed they can be mounded to a height of three or four inches, so that water and ice will not settle in the trenches around the crowns. This also gives protection from mice, and is the fin- ishing touch of the fall orchard work. The next step is the pruning and winter spraying, which can be under- taken at any time after most of the leaves are off and continued during the winter whenever the weather is favorable. ‘“The person who told you that dig- ging araund vhe trees in the fall would cause them to freeze did not bear in mind the refilling of the trenches with earth. It would no doubt be injurious to peach trees to have their roots exposed during the winter time, as I have known some orchards to be killed by the freezing of the roots. Here is one of the places where the benefits of a cover crop are to be seen. There is so much in or- charding that it can not all be given in one letter. We shall be pleased to answer further inquiries along this or other lines.”’ reese Just received a lot of Heinz’s Sour and Dills Pickles at Bittner’szGro- cery. rman. WASHINGTON LETTER. special .o The C mmercial. John Purroy Mitchel of New York will say that the Progressives solely were responsible for his nomination by the fusion committee. For two years McAneny, a Democrat, had labored for the fusion nomination. The standpgp Republican organina- tion. solidified its forces behind Dis- trict Attorney Whitman, who later, running for re-election, received the endorsement of Tammany. At the psychological moment the Proeress- ives sprang the name of Mitchel and he was nominated by the fusion com- mittee. tic support of the Progressives which made Mitchel’s election possible. The New York Mail, a Progressive newspaper, published the Sulzer reve- lations showing the attempts of ‘‘Boss’’” Murphy to compel a man elected to the governorship to turn the state over to the grafters. Nor was the mayoralty the only victory adhieved by the Progressives in New York state. 23 Progressives were elected as members of the gen- eral assembly, and 20 candidates, Republicans” and Democrats, who | were swept into office: enjoyed Pro- gressive endersement. This fusion was necessary in order to defeat either Murphy’s men or Barnes’ men and to wrest control of the legisla~ ture from this infamous alliance.

Surface, Har- mwsburg, and asked, ‘‘Is it advisable to take the borers out of peach trees at © #¥is time of year? I have a two year - «#l orchard twelve hundred trees. I 3pok the worms out of five hundred, - Wen I was told that to dig around &em in the fall would cause them to . freeze. Please advise me.’? Prof. Surface replied as follows: “It is best ta take borers out of meach trees at this time of year. 1 make a regular practice of going over my orchard in the fall of the year, re- waving the gum from around the trees, aad rémoving by hand any borers that are beneath the bark. You will find « $hat a large percentage of the borers im the fall of the year are only be- meath the mass of gum, feeding at the smrface of bark, and have not yet - gone beneath, and are thus removed fy the removal of the gum. As I warked with my men in the orchards ame Saturday recently in order to watch this carfully,I decided that nine- gy wer cont. of the borers were thus memoved. What is more these little Flows that vary from one-fourth to ame-half inch in length at this time of pear will live during the winter and <mgamence to feed early in the spring mae Dy midsummer they may kill the 1#mees they infest, especially the small virees. “I used a V-shaped hoe, with as smal? blade as I can find, or cut down = Barger hoe,so the little trench around #%e tree will not widen. I then wash #e base of the tree with boiled lime- smifar solution, or spray it with this | material, and leave it open for a ‘few | days to see if any borers remain. If] ¢key are present their signs will be siixwn by the grain af sawdust-like | »aterial in the gum coming from the 3 ‘where they are concealed be- lay between the progressives on the one hand and the two old parties on on the other. Staid, conservative Massachusetts, assumed to be the very hearthstone of standpatism, is slowly but surely taking its place in the Progressive column. Think of it! The Progressive candi- date for governor actually polled more votes in 1913 than he polled in the rresidential campaign of 1912. Think of it! Both the old Demoecra- tic and Republican parties polled less votes in 1913 than they did in 1912. Here are the figures to prove it. In 1912 the Progressive candidate polled 122,602; in 1913, 126,687; a gain of 4,065. In 1912 the Republican can- didate polled 143, 597; in 1913, 116,314; a loss of 27,283. In 1912 the Demo- cratic candidate polled 193,184; in 1913, 180,368; a loss of 12,816. In Massachusetts, as in New York, the Progressives will hold the balance of power in the assembly, and should an accident occur in the senatorial representation it will be the Pro- gressives who will be able to name the man that shall represent the Old Bay State in the United States Senate. While Everett Colby, the Progress- ive candidate for governor, received only 45,000 votes in New Jersey, the fact must not be lost sight of that the new party ran counter in that state to the heaviest kind of odds. .Colby’s vote would have been largely swollen had not many Progressives feared that ‘Stokes, the Republican candi- date, might wia. Stokes sought to confuse the issue by declaring that he had always been for Roosevelt and that he was really a ‘‘progressive’’ Republican. Both the Democrats and Republicans in New Jersey had a large campaign fund, that of the Re- publican totaling a quarter of a mil- lion dollars, as opposed to a paltry fifteen thousand dollars at the dis- posal of the Colby committee. The Progressives sought to defeat Stokes by polling about 40,000 votes. They succeeded. eee Watch for Hydrex Day at Bittner’s Grocery. ad i a Furnished Rooms Wanted for a family of four grown-up people for light house keeping—modern conven- ience.
