HUB I | How to Increase the Yield of Fruit Increased fruit crops are more often the result of good management than of good luck. Fruit trees and fruit plants need a liberal supply of Virginia-Carolina Fertilizers The trees absorb plant foods?that is, nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash ?from the soil just the tame as any other crop. Experience has shown this over and over again. This truth has become so well recognized that " return to the land what the tree removes if you would expect the best results " has become an axiom with the best growers. Apple, pear, peach, orange and other fruit trees soon respond to careful fertilization. But be sure to use the best fertilizers. " I made a test with other companies' fertilizers," says Mr. H. O. Lowry, of Manatee County, Kla., " and yours proved to be the best. The yield where I used Virginia-Carolina Fertilizer, was just twice as much as where the other two companies' fertilizer was used." Hundreds of users say Virginia-Carolina Fertilizers are cheapest because of their good qualities?give better satisfaction and quicker results. Many facts of great interest and value to fruit growers are published in the new 1909 Farmers' Year Book, a copy of which will be sent free on application to any of our sales offices.

We had among the passenger* a Jolly devil may cam young Englishman named Trevor, who was the life of the ship. Ha was especially a favorite with tha ladle*. I though he seemed to prefer the society of men, spending a lot of tins I in the smoking room. I "There was a middle aged paaasnI ger aboard, with a wife twenty years I his Junior. We hadn't been out three I days before the young wife was daft I about Trevor and the husband green with jealousy. Then fher., wue o?. old maid who would sit moping on deck till Trevor appeared, when she would languish till he joined her and look inexpressibly happy if he did so for even a few minutes. And so I could go on mentioning various women, all of whom were more or less affected. Trevor singled me out for hit; principal companion, but we used to sit in his stateroom by the hoar chatting and smoking. On one occasion I rallied him on the prefer| ence shown him by the young marI ried woman. S "One morning after the breakfast hour we missed Trevor in the smoking room. At noon u steward came to tuo as Trevor's most intimate associate and told mc that my friend's room was locked and no amount of knocking could elicit a reply. The ship's carpenter was called. I went with him. and he forced the door. The room was empty. "There could have been no means of egress for the occupant except the portholes. It seemed to me that he , would have had difficulty in getting through one of them, but there is no knowing what one may accomplish in crawling through small space, esj pecially if given abnormal strength by insanity, though some thought Trevor had crawled out in his sleep. "We were a dull company for the rest of the voyage. The young wife didn't attempt to conceal her emotion and her husband looked as if be would have liked to help Trevor make way with himself. ' "We reached New York without the reappearance of the favorite or a solutiou of the problem. The purser broke open Trevor's trunk in the hope of learning more of his identity than his mere name, but the information was not forthcoming. So far the case was set down as one of those mysterious disappearances that are uevrr iu ue expiatneu.

There's an explanation?not much to my credit I confess, but it might have been mere to my discredit if I hadn't done what 1 did, though to tell the truth 1 chose a method that was rather acceptable to a young scapegoat than an older man. l>o you remember the young married woman who " " 'Set her husband wild by going wild herself about you? Yes; go on." "She was wild true enough?so wild I couldn't control her. She was bent on ruining three persons, her husband, herself and me. 1 made a confidant of the captain and proposed to make a stowaway of myself for the rest of the voyage to get out of | her way. He offered to stow me in his cabin instead, and I accepted the offer. Mighty good man, the captain, and first class at keeping a secret. I arranged the disappearance and. to nrevent the nea?c ins home before I could cable, removed anything that would point to my address. But, heavens, how did 1 come to get engaged to your neiee?" 1 " 'Why didn't you confide in ine?' { I asked. " 'Captain said confide in no one or he would have nothing to do with the matter.' "To all this the bride expectant listened with eyes and ears wide open. "Well, I declare!' she said at i the finish. 'If 1 had heard that story without the name of the principal, i w ould have known It was you. I'ncle, do you think I'm safe in marrying I Ruch a man ?' Then to her fiance, < 'Why haven't >ou confessed this to I nie with other things?' . " How would it look for me to tell ' you that 1 had to disappear to get I away from a woman?' " Right >ou are.' said I. 'No truly modest man could have done it.' "I found that my niece's father (my sister's husband) had been furnished all the evidence required to prove that Trevor was a younger son of a British nobleman. He had been a ranchman since coming to America and would not go back to England on any account." "Next!" cried one of the listeners.
