RECLAIMING THE JERSEY
.MEADOWS.
The members of the American
Peat Society, which recently held its
annual convention in New York,
visited the Jersey meadows where
they inspected several hundred
acres of ipeat bog that are being re
claimed and cultivated. After eight
years of development somo two hun
dred acres are yielding, in lettuce
and onions, from COO to 1,000 bush
els per acre, while the yield of cel
ery is said to average about 3,000
dozen per acre. The results obtain
ed in this locality should prove a
great stimulus In similar work of
reclamation on valuahle but unde
veloped bog lands throughout the
country.
APPLES ARE LESS WORMY.
Horticulturalist W. H. Bullock
claims that the apples this year are
less wormy than previous years,
which ,Mr. Bullock claims he thinks
is due to the exceedingly cold winter
weather. The extreme cold ho says
killed tho coddling moth, hence few
er apples are wormy.
The peach crop In the stato is very
light. Trees that bore a peach this
year contained bushels of this delici
ous fruit other seasons.
Mr. Bullock told a Citizen repre
sentative that Thomas Rlfld, of
Rileyvllle, has the finest peaches of
note that he had seen in all his
travels this season. Mr. RIdd's tree
is well loaded and they are somo of
the finest grown.

ness prospects in the West are tho
