Proper Planting of Shade Trees.

Thp bea,\ity, qf ,a shade tree depends upon, its normal and symmetrical growth. In order .to. insure (his, before planting cut off the endjs of &1-, broken or mutilated roots’j’ remove altside branches save upon evergreens, so’that a 1 straight whlpllke stalk alone regains. Dig. hofed.,at. .feast. two feet lri diameter and one foqt deep in good’ soil, and make them four,feet across impoor soil. The sides of holefe should be perpendicular and the bottom flat. Break up soil in the bottom'Of jthe hole to the depth oft he'length of a spade blade. Place two or three inches of fine~top soil, 'free from, sods or other decomposing organic niatter,, In the bottom of the hole. On top of this place the roots of the tree.' spread them as evenly ns possible over the bottom of the hole, land cover with two or three Inches of fine top soil as before. Tramp firmly with the feet and fill the hole with good earth, leaving the surface loose and a little higher than the surface of tfye surrounding soil.. When the work of planting is •completed, the tree should stand about two inches deeper than It stood in the nursery.

Well Called “Salt City”

Syracuse, N. Y., Is called the Salt city, because of its large deposits. Much salt is obtained i from vats, called “solar vats." since - the salt sOhitltth is 1 spread out in them for the sun's rays which thoroughly Evaporate the water!’ Part of the Syracuse deposits pre under Onondaga lake In the,form of a great basin of salt water, separated frpm the fresh water above an Impervious. layer„ of clay. By boring through this. < the saline water is pumped up In great quantities: Ahother method of evaporation emploved is by boiling. If boiled down rapidly a flrie tablE salt is made; If more slowly, coarse salt ns large crystals have time to form.
