have observed eat fruit, cat the skin of it
also. The children eat it in the same

THE apple tree takes the rawness ant
wildness off any scene. On the top Of
mountain or in remote pastures 1t shed
the sentiment Of home. 1t never loses it
domestic air, or lapses into wild state

ing building site for the new home
what a help it is to have few old, mater
nal apple trees near by; regular OH
grandmothers who have seen trouble, VIII
have been sad and glad through so man,
winters and summers, who have bios
; somed until the air is sweeter about then
than elsewhere, and borne fruit till tn
grass beneath them has become thick an
; soft from human contact, and who hav
nourished robbins and fnches in thei
: branches till they have a tender, broodin
look. The ground, the turf, the atmos
phere of an old orchard seem severa
) stages nearer to man than those of the ad
joining field, as if the trees had take
back from the soil more than they ha
taken from it; as if they had tempere
the elements and attracted all the genia
and benefcent influences in the landscap
