All nature seems to be exerting itself
to its utmost capacity to bring forth an
abundant harvest of every description Of
fruit and grain. Every field, plant,
tree, shrub and flower gives abundant
evidence that year of great-of unus-
nal plenty is at hand. Within q very
few days the entire face Of nature has
changed from a sober, quiet brown to
that of inexpressibly gorgeous beauty.
On tho meadows and hill.sides Madam
Nature has laid down her carpets Of
lovely green. All fruit bearing trees
are putting forth their beautiful BIOS
SONS, filling the air with enlivening fra.
GRANGE, while the buds on the noble for
est trees are swelling out and will soon
burst forth in gorgeous foliage.
The fields which have been sown with
grain give an earnest of an abundant
harvest. Never have we seen Spring
wheat coming up more evenly or look
ing more healthy and promising than at
the present time. The dry and windy
weather which was, by some, pro-
nounced disastrous to the coming forth
Of the wheat, has had no observable eff.
feet. The late refreshing rains have
dispelled any fears that may have arisen
on that point, and the coming forth o.
the millions Of little green blades have
put an end to all question about fail
ure of seed.
With continuance of such gloriou.
prospects as those Of the present time
we may expect harvest not only Of
grain but of all kinds of fruits and root,
that will astonish the oldest inhabitan
himself.
