FRUIT GROWING AS A BUSINESS.

In our recent wanderings through
several of the Western States, we gave
much of our time to observation and in
quiry on the subject of fruit growing as
u branch of industry in connection with
general farming or other occupations,
and also as only an exclusive bust
ness.
The entire West is so well adapted
to raising fruits of all sorts, that many
have reasoned with themselves that, if
a small planting of fruit trees will pay,
then large plantations will pay in the
same proportion. In this, nearly all
will find themselves sadly mistaken. A
few tried this in Iowa and soon found
the results were not in accordance with
their theoretical reasonings. Illinois
has some very large fruit plantations,
but nearly all are carried on in conjunc-
ton with other farming operations, and,
with perhaps few exceptions of some
extensive peach grounds in the south
ern portion of the State, none rely who'll
ly upon oreharding for living or mon
ey-making.
In Kansas few are planting out ex-
tensive orchards, and propose making
fruit growing their exclusive business,
but a few years of partial or total fail
ure will soon set them to looking about
for mixed husbandry. Even if the
trees and plants of large orchard are
as well cared for as those in a small COL
lection, the disappointment is, never
theless, greater, because this is the en-
tire reliance of the large orchardist.
while small orchard is of but little
consequence, as olher occupations are
the principal reliance.
When we become more intimately ac-
quainted with the science of fruit grow
ing, we will find that there is scarcely
spot in the entire West, but almost all
the fruits can be made to do well, and
yet large orchards still be failures.
We recently heard an old fruit grow
er of Iowa say that he would not take
the largest orchard in the State as a gift
if he were compelled solely to rely up

GRATITUDE.
rLouisville Courier journal. october 1871

louisville Courier journal, October 1s.l
One cold, windy, snowy night, in the
month of January, before the breaking
out of the late war, youth, about 10
years of age, and who was hungry and
cold, stood screening himself from the
wind and snow in one of the large door
ways of the postoffice. He was strang-
er, and had Just arrived here from his
home in one of the mountain counties.
where he had been "bound out" by his
parents before their death to work on a
farm. He, it appears, was badly treated
by his foster parents, and without a
shilling in his pockets, he left them to
find his way to an uncle, who lived
somewhere in Kansas-where, he did
not know. About midnight that night,
a gentleman, whose business called him
to the postoffice, discovered the boy in
his lonely and sad condition, and after
hearing his story, took him to the old
Democrat office, then on Third street,
and kept him there until next morning.
The gentleman who did this act of kind
ness received the following letter, yes
terday, which fully explains itself:
HAWKINS FARM, KS, Oct. l, 1870.
MIR. VIM. S. HAYS, Louisville, Ky:
About ten or twelve years ago, one
cold night, you took me to your print
Next day you gave me some clothes,
three dollars in money, and free pass
age to St. Louis on stern wheel boat.
got there all right and worked my
way up to Atchison, and from there l
walked to my uncle's farm, and came
nearly freezing out before 1 found him.
He did not know me. / staid with him
some time and went in the army. His
wife died and left no children. When
the war was over 1 went back to live
with him, and in four months he died,
leaving me his farm and stock and ev-
erything. l got married and settled
down on the farm and made fine crop
every year since. l have been married
two years and we have got little boy
five weeks old, and he looks like me
it's mine. Last night me and her come
across the letter you give me, which
said at the bottom:
BE prudent, wise, and always think
To never steal, cheat, swear nor drink;
And if you e'er should married be,
Why, name the first boy after me-"
Now, sir, we've done it. From this
out that boys name is William Hays
Hawkins, Esq, and we do it with glad
ness for what you done for me once.
Write and let me know if you are salts
fed, for if you are you can swear me
and my wife and 'Bill" is.
Yours forever,
HIRAM PERCY HAWKINS

COMPARATIVE FATALITY OF MOD
ERN WARFARE.

A correspondent writes from Paris ]:
A comparison between the losses of
armies in the battles of the first empire
with those resulting from engagements
where improved firearms have been en-
ployed will show humanitarians that
the old buck-and-ball cartridges, fired
from Brown Bess" were much more
deadly than rifled cannon, needle-guns
and chassepots.

cent.

Der of killed and wounded, 1900; that

We sometimes fear that the Gold
Medal Premium received by the State
of Kansas on superior fruits at the last
exhibition OF the American Pomologi-
cal Society, will be the means of some
of its Inhabitants losing money in their
extravagant ideas of too expensive
paintings. We saw but little fruit in
Kansas, and that State is subject to fail
ures from similar causes as are the States
Immediately east of it.
An exclusive business in grape grow
ing may be more nearly successful than
in any other fruit, and then only in con-
nection with a wine manufacturing es-
Enlistment. Grape vines are easily
grown, less trouble to manage and a
fruit crop more certain than that of any
other variety of fruit. We would Gnu
ton planters of large orchards against
making fruit growing an exclusive bus
mess unless they have good deal of
surplus money to rely upon in years of
Homestead.
