TINE FRUITS OF ENTERPRIsE. Isaac
II. Page, Esq, Of Richland Township
has placed on our table delicious
article ofsyrup, and some very fine
specimens Of grannulated and cakd
sugar, made from the hard White
Maple trees, which were planted on
his grounds, only nine years ago.
In flavor and appearance, it is fully
equal to the best article made from
tbs ordinary sugar tree. He informs
no that this useful and orn amental
tree. can be propagated with the
greatest facility from the seed, which
should be collected in June, and plan
ted in the fall in rows, say eight OF
ten feet apart. They grow with ra-
pidity equal to the Cottonwood, and
for ornamental purposes, and to aft
ord = wind break to protect build
ings, orchards. &C., they are without
. rival among American forest trees.
Mr.. Page has demonstrated the fact
that in addition to their other good
qualities, they produce an abundance
Of sap from which our farmers cae
readily make their own sugar and
molasses.
The specimens can be seen and
tested by any interested in this mat
ter by calling at our Office. The pub
lie are indebted to Mr.. Page for his
successful experiments in THESE mat
ters.

In my Card Of Nov. l. 1897. I stated
suRplyinG the wants of the public.
ana In order to prevent unserupu-
l00s dealers from palmlng on ln1e-
rlOr and worthless goods as ths
Morton Gold Pens, I shall here
after sell NO goods at wholesale
authori.ed Agents" etc. To this
plan I have since strictly adhered.
In accepting Agents, great care has
been exercised to appoint those who,
BY long-continued fair dealing, have
acquired reputation for honesty.
responsibility, and probity men in
whose word the public have learned to
place confdence. These Agents have
agreed to keep full assortment of my
pens, and to sell them At my published
prices. Thus the public are supplied
by them with just such pens ~ they
want, either ~ 10 writing or price. and
get . full equivalent for the money
paid.
No agent 10 appointed to travel from
