If one desires to make a success
of anything he should give it at
least some attention. Some people
will say that it is a waste of time
and energy to try to beautify a
home in this section or try to raise
fruit and vegetables. A visit to th"
beautiful home of Hon. I. S. Geer
will knock all such nonsense in the
bead and if it doesn’t put enthusi
asm into any individual, regardless
off. .mer failures and experiences,
tl." writer will give a cromo. A
more healthy young orchard has
never come under our observation
and evey tree, with the exception
of the peaches are full of fruit. The
cherry trees are especially fine and
he also has quince, apples, pears,
plums, prunes, gooseberries, rasp
berries, currents, etc., all laden
down with fruit. The blackberries
look well and grapes are forming
on the vine- and promise to be an
excellent yield. The various kinds
of Howers, pansies, roseR, pinks, pe
onies, etc., are a delight to al) who
see them. Things will grow here
Orchards need care, however, and
when one says fruit cannot be rais-
ed successfully in this section, just
put it down that the indivual
was’too “ornry” to try.
