There is little question that the de
cided Improvement in quality of fruit
produced the past season by orchards
not sprayed was due to the fart that
the total failure the year previous in
practically all the territory east of the
Rockies made the propagation ot
worms and to quite an extent the
spread of fungous pests impossible.

truth misfortunes, like blessings, are
seldom unmixed.

merit to the forced molting of a flock

POISON OF WORRY
Worry is one of the few things
that we can lay down a law against,
as it is absolutely poisonous. Unlike
other poisons, it does not stimulate,
but is a depressing, paralyzing and
breaking up poison. It is a sheer
wa?te of energy, and life would be-
come much more bearable if only
people would take things philos-
ophically, as a matter of course.—
Eustace Miles.
Good Hearted Cabbage.
A well known expert in cooking en-
countered trouble in a suburbau com-
