One reason is because we have planted so few winter apples. Another reason is that people do not take pains to keep their trees thrifty by fertilizing and destroying the enemies of fruit trees. :Now, if a farm- er will get good fruit trees and be as faithfulwith them as he would with a crop of corn, or any other crop, he will soon have a better paying investment; with le~s labor and more satisfaction, than raising grain crops." durlug ~ wilt be devoted to Plction, Trnv~l, mid Sport, aad will be t~ best all.emund b~'s paperl~blishad. -- :: TWO SERIAL Sl[ RIES "- [ , Forward, March 1" Qavin Hamilton ~" ~ By KIRK MUNROE By MOLLY ELLIOT SEAWELL is a Itm~ of a yoaal~ hlro with R~o~- is a ~te~y of the tb~ of Klue .
