Mason, last week, bought a new ax, and going home, made good use of his ax by cutting down Itso ot nis six-year-old Delaware Red apple trees. He will replace these trees by planting Spitzen burg trees. Mr. Mason had before this top-grafted 670 unprofitable varieties apple trees. He also had dug up 30 Early Harvest, sold to him through mistake of the nurseryman. This makes a total of 860 trees that he has changed since planting his orchard six years ago. He is making his entire orchard of over 20 acres, half to Spitz and half Yellow 'Newtowns. His experience has been a bitter pill but he has swallowed it man fully. If more of our orchardists would follow this good example set by Mr. Ma eon, our valley would be still more fam ous for high grade fruit. His excuse for cutting down and digging out the Delaware Reds instead of top-grafting them is that the bodies of this variety are not suitable for sustaining a good tree. A Congregational church was organ ized at Pine Grove last Friday afternoon. Rev. J. L. Hershner was chosen moder ator of the meeting, and J. C. Por ter, secretary. Twenty persons, all of whom are adults but one, covenanted together as a church, and adopted the name, Pine Grove Congregational church. Officers were chosen as follows: Deacons, V. C. Brock, U. A.

Porter. Rev. J. L. Hershner will minister to the church on alternate Sunday after noons. W. Eugene Knox, the impersonator, with his company of singers,will appear at the M. K. church next Monday night, February 22, and will be accompanied by Raynord W, Kelsey, who will speak in behalf of the local option law.

No admission will be charged, but a silver collection will be taken to assist in defraying the traveling expens es of the company. The enow fall during the past week was considerable and Sunday it was 24 inches deep throughout the valley. At Parkertown it was four feet deep and in the timber near by Bix feet. The sleigh ing was fine for a day or two, but the rain of Tuesday and mildness of the at mosphere Wednesday made the roads and streets full of Blush.
