SHOULD APPEAR.-The following
advertisement should appear in the

the Board of Supervisors would pay
for the publication, consequently the
Neaes, being the only paper that can
afford to work gratis, gives it space :

Then followed other varieties to as
found me with their luxuriant growth
and excellence: Rogers Hybrid, No.

others OF more common varieties, each

Buerre Clairgean y perfect Califor-

assured me this tree came from
France eighteen years ago, and had
borne well every year since the second
year from planting, without injury
from frost or blight. His Doyenne
Beussock has been equally prolific.
Now let me make the amende hon
orabie, and say have been entirely
mistaken, and that nuggets of gold'
can be dug from the soil of Iowa, in
the shape OF apples, pears, grapes,
plums, and all the smaller fruits with
less toll and time and more sure re-
suits by every one who will study
wisely the varieties, adaptation to
soil, and location for planting, than
will be won from the Black Hills, and
that too without fighting the Indians,
or leaving the comforts of home, for
centuries to come.

A NUGGET OF GOLD 20. THE MIL
LION.-Gen. Custer writes:
1.-THE product of one pan of earth
was laid on my table which was not
worth less than two dollars. 1t con-
tanned some fifty particles of gold from
a color to the size Of kernel of
wheat, averaging about the size
of pin head"
There! Will not that set all this
western world into-into-I would
say Mysteries but Inen never have
Mysteries and women can't go to the
Black Hills. What a stampede there
will be! How the deserted wives will
go mourning about the streets, buying
f1ouncings and furbelows-to be paid
for when he comes back with pockets
full of gold!
All this and columns more was

enig me with apoplexy, when a man
ly knock brought me to my senses,
or rather to my feet, to receive visit

pomologist, James Mathews, ex-Pro-
fessor of that science in the Agricul-
tural College of Iowa. The Prof. was
laden with half-bushel basket-not
of dirt-but the product Of the best
dirt of Iowa. Had l not ventured an
opinion somewhere that Iowa was not
good country for fruits, vines etc. ?
Yes, / had; for had not farmers and
gardeners, whose efforts had been fail
ures, told me so? They said !:
Grapes do well in some locations,
but they must all be protected in
winter; pears will not grow at all ex-
cept in here and there q locality ;
apples will always be partial fail
ure." And did not the multitudes of
thrifty looking orchards, barren of
fruit. all the way from Davenport to
Des Moines bear testimony to the
truth of these assertions? Imagine
my surprise, dear reader, on seeing
the genealogical Prof" begin to un-
load his basket. Oh what nuggets of
gold emerged from beneath that news
paper! / once heard an eloquent and
popular lecturer exclaim i'm his enthu-
siasm over nature and her doings !:
What, my hearers, is bird but a
harmony with wings, or flower but
lump of dirt refined in natures la
boratory?"
And what, ask, is magnificent
cluster of grapes but a nugget Of gold
right out Of the earth Such was
the Seeding of Mr.. Mathews own
raising, which he presented to my
sight, taste and smell-a semi-tran-
sparent purplish pink under the rich
est bloom, and as large as the largest
Black Hamburgs-superior clusters,
so full of luscious ripeness and sweet
ness that the wine was bursting their
skins, and tempting immediate con-
sumption. ] never saw more beau
