Orchard Tips.
Many inquiries are being received
at the Division of Zoology at Harris-
burg regarding the treatment of fruit
trees during the late winter and early
| spring, and the following valuable
suggestions are culled from the corre-
spondence of Prof. H. A. Surface,
State Economic Zoology, as of benefit
to everyone. To an inquiry about
general pruning at the present time
Professor Surface replied:
“It is the proper time of year to
prune apple trees, and I recommend
you to go ahead with this. You can
also prune pear and even grape vines
during the winter, if you wish; but
I recommend postponing the pruning
of peach until you are sure whether
or not the fruit buds are ruined. If
you find there will be no crop you
should prune, much more severely
than otherwise. Cut the branches
away back, and by stimulating new
growth you candevelope new branches
heavily set with fruit buds for the
crop during the second summer fol-
lowing. By such severe pruning you
would be removing only thedead buds,
which would, if alive, form fruit for
the next summer; but in case these are
not. alive they are useless, and the art
of the grower should be to insure plenty
of buds for the following summer.
One can not consider the time proper
to prune his peach trees until after the
period for late spring frosts is past. If
a person should prune only lightly be-
fore blooming, for the purpose of sav-
ing fruit buds, and these should after-
wards be damaged, he is justified in
going after the trees again and prun-
ing much more severely.
“This is an important and practical
point in horticulture which I think has
not been set forth in the books on this
subject. At least if this be true, Ihave
not seen it. Ihave made use of it very
considerably in my own extensive or-
chards. After I found that a tempera-
ture of 35 degrees below zero had killed
my fruit buds a year ago last winter, I
proned the trees back very severely by
semi-topping, and this resulted in the
growth of an abundance of new
branches, heayily set with fruit buds
that gave me a magnificent crop of
peaches last summer.”

State Bee-Keepers
{0 Mee Soon.
The Pennsylvania State Bee-Keep-
ers’ Association will hold its Annual
Meeting in the State Capitol at Harris-
burg on Friday, the 20th and Saturday
the 21st of February. There will be
afternoon and evening sessions on
Friday, and forenoon and afternoon
sessions on Saturday. Arrangements
have been made for some of the best
expert and practical beerkeepers in
America to be present and take part
in this meeting. Among the men
who will be in attendance are such as
Dr. E. F. Phillips, in Oharge of Api-
culture, U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture, Washington, D. C., who will
deliver a scientific address of great
value on Bee-Keeping. Dr. Burton
N. Gates, State Apiarist of Massachu-
setts. will speak on another branch of
the same subject; Prof. H. A. Surface
will speak on ‘‘Soil Fertility and
Honey Production;’”’ State Apiary
Inspector, Georye H. Rea, will relate
his experiences in inspecting for bee
diseases; State Inspector, J. O. Buse-
man, of Philadelphia, will discuss the
‘“Treatment of Bee Diseases,’”’ and
others will be present who will tell
‘how to managé bees to get the best
returns in the production of comb
honey, and also management and
production of extracted honey, the
the management of house apiaries,
how to handle modermhives, handling
bees and other subjects of interest
and value to bee-keepers.
This State Association is the next
to the largest in America, and is
accomplishing something along the
line of the purposes for which it was
organized. It has recently printed its
Annual Procedings, - giving in detail
the papers presented at its meetings,
and also obtained legislation and
appropriation for Apiary Inspection
work, which was pushed successfully
last year. With two inspectors in the
field only a part of thesummer nearly
one thousand hiyes of bees were in-
spected, of which nearly one-tenth
were found infested by the bee diseases
prevalent and injurious in this State.
The details of this important subject
will be discussed by the inspectors.
In addition to his part on the pro-
gram mentioned above, Prof. Surface
will deliver his annual address and
the Secretary-Treasurer, Prof. H. C.
| Klinger, of Liverpool, will present an
| interesting report. No person inter-
| ested in bee-keeping should fail to
attend these meetings. They will be
open to the public.

LINERS IN GRIP
OF FIERCE GALE
Thirty-Three Big Steamers Kept
From Making Port
THOUSANDS ARE IN PERIL
5,250 Passengers on Board Fleet Over-
due Several Days in New York.
There is Danger of the Liners
Running Short of Coal.
New York.—Thirty-three big steam-
ers, of which ten are regular liners,
were somewhere off this port Sunday,
unable to get in on account of the
storm that has been raging for sev-
eral days. The liners, all of them
with big passenger lists, were overdue
anywhere from two to five days. No
one knew whether any of the overdue
«vessels were near port or far out at
sea. None has sent word by wireless,
but that probably means they are in
no danger.
Only one steamer of the big over-
due fleet made her way into port.
This was the Monterey of the War
Line from Havana. She succeeded
in reaching port before the snow had
reached its height.
Sailing schedules for the big steam-
ship lines have been knocked to
pieces. Of the ten liners overdue not
one will be able toc get away on sched-
ule time. When they do reach port,
it will require three days to send
them to sea again. The piers are con-
gested with freight.
The estimated total number of pas-
sengers on the overdue fleet is 5,250.
There is the danger that some of the
liners will run short of coal. Two
put ‘into Halifax to take on more
fuel. The French liner Chicago, four
days overdue, on her voyage was con-
tinually buffeted by heavy head seas
and strong winds. Her coal bunkers
were nearly depleted when she
reached Halifax.
In addition to the overdue seagoing
fleet there are a number of coastwise
vessels of which no report has been
received.
A snowstorm said to rival in se-
verity the famous blizzard of 1888,
raged to the accompaniment of zero
weather in the upper Hudson valley,
the Mohawk valley and the Northern
and Western parts of New York State
generally, tying up completely many
of the smaller railroad and trolley
lines and paralyzing communication
generally. All mails were delayed.

Riotous Scenes and Graft Conviction
at Tokio.

found one naval officer guilty of
bribery, in connection with the deal-
ings of Japanese naval officers with

Japanese navy.
New Road for Westmoreland County.
Vandergrift, Pa.—E. M. Bigelow,

towns will be built this year. It will
bring Vandergrift in close touch with
the county seat and other parts of

John J. Kennedy, New York State
Official, Dies in Buffalo Hotel.
Buffalo, N. Y.—John J. Kennedy,
State Treasurer, committed suicide
with a razor at the Markeen Hotel.

over his impending appearance before
a New York grand jury where Dis-
trict Attorney Charles S. Whitman
has been conducting a John Doe graft
inquiry, is said by his attorney, Mi-
chael F. Dirnberger, Jr., to be the
only reason that can be assigned fo.
Mr. Kennedy's act.
