Bnrrenness Of Fruit Trees,

We have seen lately in some of our az.
rlcultural exchanges (we think it was the
Country Gentieman) theory advanced,
giving the reason for the prevailing bar
renness of fruit trees. The theory ad-
vanced was this; As trees are now mostly
propagated in large commercial nurseries,
scions are uniformly taken from unbearine
trees-from nursery trees-which nursery
trees were also budded or grated in like
manner. So that in the propagation of
trees by budding and grating, parents,
grand parents, and great grand parents
have had for their chief characteristics the
production OF leayes-not fruit Is it sur
prisipg then that habit has been grad
ually, whereby tree has become remark
able for its bearing leaves, rather than its
bearing fruit?
There are some trees--the Smiths ci-
der for instance-which will bear fruit
even in nursety rows. Taking scions from
such trees may not induce habit of bar
renness
The matter is well worthy of thoughts
full consideration. And if it be found
that the prevailing method of propagating
fruit trees is calculated to induce habits Of
barrenness and degeneraoy, the sooner we
set about reforming our practice, and se-
lect scions and buds only from bearing
trees, the sooner will we have prolific fruit
trees again.
A wholesale cry has of late been made
against insects. But if tree has health
and exhibits rampant growth, and has a
habit of fruitlcssnoss, We very much ques-
ton whether these various qualities will
not be ap over=mateh for all depredations
insects may make. Such trees as we have
described will have fruit in spite of every
obstacle that they may encounter.-Cinz

rior is lighted ION above, and ornamen-
ted with statues. The whole resembling
the renowned Girard College, the pride Of
Philadelphia.
The Cathedral, Notre Dame de Paris,
is beautiful Gothic structure, built In
1lGa. The principal facade is very fine.
There are two towers, each about 800 feet
in height. The interior is beautiful, and
in the form of Latin CROSS The dimen-
sions are-length AIS feet, width 16O feet
height Ito feet. The nave has two aisles
and vast number of chapels. There are
in all lib windows and 297 columns. The
wood-carvings of the choir, the pulpit, the
several bas-reliefs and statues, all of the
time of Louis XIV. are interesting and
admirable.
The treasury may be seen, and the tow
crs assembled, on application to the beadle,
by handing him fixed fee of twenty cents.
The view from the top of the towers is su-
pcrb Tt is worth while to see the bells;
the largest of which weighs sixteen tons,
the hammer nearly halfa-ton. Tt is in
the south tower, and the largest in France,
and was cast in 1886.
La ChapeUe Eapiatoire, (Rue d'Anjon
St. Honore), is a monumental chapel in
the form of cross built to the memory of
Louis XVI and Maria Antoinctte. 1t oc-
cupies the site of an old cemetery where
were buried the victims of an accident by
fireworks, at the time Of the marriage of
Louis XVI, and where, % years after
wards, the victims of the 10th of August,
1892, were deposited, lastly, in 1893, the
bodies of Louis XVI, and Marie Aatoin-
cite were deposited here.
Many others could he described, like,
La 'Satnte Chapefte, one of the finest reli-
gtous monuments of Paris, and Notre
Dame de Bon Secours, remarkable for its
sculptures, painted glass, and wood-oarv-
Ing, but enough has already been said re-
garding the remarkable Catholic structures
of that ancient city.
AS we are in the habit Of DEPRESSING per-
haps few words in regard to the first tenn
pie viz: Solomon's, would be apropos.
while speaking of costly and elegant
churches. When we reflect how much
was expended by Solomon on the first tenn
pie, all modern structures are thrown in
the shade. According to Rev. Howard
Crosby, d. d. Pastor of the Fourth Ave-
nue Presbyterian Church, New York, one
of the great Biblical authorities in this
country, Solomon was worth about four
thousand millions of dollars in specie, viz:
gold and silver. ,Solomon's Temple is be-
lieved to have cost about one hundred mil
lions of dollars in gold, lie finally stated
in his expository sermon on this subject,
on Sunday, April 11th, that his father
Dortd left about seventy five millions of
dollars in specie at his death. TO build the
Temple. Surely that great and wise King
lived in the golden era, when we have it
from the best authority that he received
tribute from his subjects yearly specie to
the amount of twenty millions of dollars.
