FRUIT AZ A SOURCE OF REVENUE
Last week we spoke Of the marble deposits
in Franklin county NJ a source of wealth
which needed development. This week
we would remind our people that they
have too long neglected the cultivation of
fruit. And yet, no county in Tennessee
offers better facilities for the growing OF
fruit than this of Franklin, and we cannot
see why our people should exc out a bare
subsistence by entire devotion to corn and
wheat when fruit is In such great demand
ut prices that rcmuncratc two-iold. Per-
haps it is because there are so many who
beg fruit and seem to thihk that he who
raises it should give 1t away. Hence tits
that many men become Disguised with eff
forts to make money from Embarrassing. A
puts out n good orchard, ut much la
Dor and expense. No sooner do his trees
begin to bear than Tom, Dick and Harry
and beg Il basket or so of peaches
or apples. and the man feels that it would
look little" in him to refuse. And If he
gives to A he must give to b and to & and
so on. until he very naturally concludes
that it will not pay to raise fruit. But
it wU pay Plant your orchards, cultivate
your trees. and when any one comes for
fruit, tell him that your price is so and so,
If he has the check to beg, say that you
look to your fruit crop rs 4 source of in
come for the support Of your family, just
as he looks to his labor to enable him tC
make Il living. Very soon people viii
learn that they must either pay for til,
fruit they get or plant thcirown orchards
This is a matter deserving more space
than we have to spare tlis week, but We
shall recur to it again.

Music SCHoOL.-We take pleasure in
m%akingthis complimentary allusion to the
Music School under charge of Prof. r. L.
Steinhagen, assisted by Misses Julia Cable,
Elodie Lewis, Melissa Merritt, Bette
Bright, and Miss Mollie Bledsoe as Assis
tant Pupil. The President, Prot. S., in
his circular, says:
"a desire to promote the cause of Music
in its educational, rather than in its sensa-
tiOnal aspect, to make real musicians, by
unfolding the faculties. which a well-de-
fined Interpretation of the subject calls
into requisitiOn, prompted the Trustees
OF Mary Sharp College to establish a School
of Music. Its object is to furnish a conf
plete musical education, practical and the
O%retical. both to amateurs and to those
aUhO desire to fit themselves for the
profession as teachers of Music"
The success which has attended the I'M
firing efforts of Prot. Steinhagen is of it
self an earnest of capacity, and we predict
for him an increase of patronage in the
future. We can but think that any one
desiring to fully understand Theory, Har-
mony and Composition of Music will be
wanting in judgment to not seek the graf
i~fication of such desire by struggling for
a diploma from Prof. S.
