From the number of love affairs

instead of an arrow.
Good Reasons for Urging Increased
Cultivation of Useful and Pretty
Bearers of Fruit.
Although in at least two states,
Pennsylvania mid Ohio, there are more
than 1,000,000 cherry trees and nearly
as many in several other slates, the
commercial interests are relatively
small compared with several other
fruits in which the number of trees
is considerably less.
In the south the summers are too
long and hot, as a rule, for cherries
to do well, and they do their best at
the higher altitudes.
In their endurance of low tempera
tures sour cherries compare- fnvrrah!y
with apples. Sweet cherries are less
hardy than sour sorts. Their endur
ance of cold corresponds more nearly
to that of I he peach.
Cherries are sensitive to n poorly
drained soil. Clay soils, extremely
retentive of moislure, give the poorest
results, and the lighter, better drained
soils the best. Soils that dry out ex
cessively are also unsatisfactory. Mod
erately productive soils give better re
sults than those which represent either
extreme In fertility. Cherries blossom
comparatively early, the sweet sorts
earlier in most cases than the smir
varieties: then-fore sites Hint urn Miili-
j ject to spring- frosts during the usual
blossoming period should be avoided.

ROAD DRAGGING IS FAVORED
Four Good Points on Simple and Least
Expensive Contrivance for
Maintenance.
(Prepared by liie United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
First, the road drag is the simplest
and least expensive contrivance yet de
vised for maintaining roads construct
ed of earth or earthy material. Sec
ond, the successful operation of n road
drag depends to a very great extent
on the skill and intelligence of the op
erator. Third, the time to use the drag
Is when the material composing the
road surface is sufficiently moist to

has been moved by the drag and does
not contain sulllclent moisture for the
traffic following the drag to produce
mud. Fourth, dragging cannot usually
be so arranged as to keep teams em
ployed all the time, and it Is therefore
desirable to have It done by Interested
persons who can llnd employment for
themselves and teams when they are
not engaged In dragging.

TELLS GOOD ROADS' NEEDS '
Farm and Fireside Explains Best
Plan for Oval Surface Should
Be Flat as Possible.
"Everybody agrees that the surface
of a road must be oval In Its con
tour," says Farm and Fireside, "but
not all understand that this oval
ought to be as Hat as the character
of the road material and the lay ot
the, land will permit. With brick or
concrete construction the oval may
be very flat, because the traffic makea
no ruts to carry the water lengthwise
of the road, nor does the pavement
soften and develop depressions When
kept In contact with water.
"Itut broken stone (water-bound
macadam), being susceptible to peno
l rut ion by water, and subject to great
damage If frozen while soaked, must
be given n higher oval; and for gravel
! roads a still steeper pitch Is do-
1 manded.
j "As for earth roads, the stepnos
j must be governed by th combined
i Influence of a number of factors.
Perhaps the leading factor Is tha
quality of the eartn In each particu
lar case. And next might be placet!
the presence or absence of 'seeps' or
spouts' j while another of these vital
factors would be the longitudinal
pitch of the highway."

PATCHING OFTEN NEGLECTED
Two Ruta Caused to Form Where
There Wae but One Before
Work When Read le Wet
Patching Is usually neglected or
done in such a way as to cause two
ruts to form where there was but one
before. That Is the Invariable result
of filling a rut too full. This work
should always be done when the roml
Is wet, p-efi rubly when the water Is
still standing In every little hollow on
the road surface, so that the workmen
can Just see where to place the new
gravel and about how inuih Is needed.
1'iilcs the rut Is a very large one,
It Is always best to shovel the gravel
from (he wagon Into it, rather than In
raise a sideboard and attempt to dump
part of the loud.
