A few weeks ago most dastardly
outrage was committed in Benton Har
Dor, Michigan. An orchard of about
1900 trees was girdled by Vandal
hands. The entire community turned
out to save the trees-men, women and
children settiug rtoNorlA with grating
wax and bandagess to save as many of
the trees as possible. The wax, sup
piled the place of the bark, and the
trees continued ayigorous growth
But the scoundrel was not to be balked
of his revenge or malice. Soon after
ward the orchard Was again entered,
the trees completely girdled, and there
seems to be no doubt that the work OF
destruction is effectually done. The
splendid orchard is now but field OF
dead and decaying tree trunks. The
loss is at least $4,000, and the affair
creates great excitement. si1,ss
am suspicious of that church whose
members are one in their beliefs and
opinions. When q tree is dead, it will
aie any way alive, it will have its own
growth. When mems deafness is in
the church, and there, like elsewhere,
all will be alike. They can be cut and
polished any way. When they are alive
they are like tropical forest-some
shooting up, like the mahogany tree !;
some spreading like the vine; some
darkling, like the shrub; some. lying,
herb-like, on the ground; but all obey
ing their own laws of growth COM

richness and beauty of the wood
