The Lime Question.

EDITOR HERALD: slime Grove
Ownern must be anxious to occupy
the ground alone, and therefore under
takes to scare others so that they will
not plant lime trees. If Mr.. Lime
Grove Owner" thought there would
be no sale for lines he would certainly
sell his grove and say nothing about
future prices, as there is great tie
mand for these trees in bearing. The
facts are those who own bearing trees
wish to keep up the old prices of 1s49.
Lines are now selling at one cent n
piece, if they were reduced to one
quarter of cent they would still pay
very remunerative prices, as you can
plant at least two hundred Mexican
lines on an acre and raise from eight
hundred to one thousand to tree.
Thus two hundred trees bearing eight
hundred lines, each at one quarter of
a cent each, would bring revenue of
four thousand dollars per acre.
If Mr.. Lime Grove Owner" and
others, will put the price down so that
the people who use lemonade can af-
ford to buy them, and not have to buy
foreign expressed lime juice, then L
think they will have market for
their lines. This is something like
the history of the early discovery of
gold in California. l often used to
hear 1t affirmed in those days that
there would soon be no market for
gold and that it would be worth no
more than silver, and some feared that
it would be reduced to the value of
copper or lead. But there is as much
demand for gold now as in 49," which
Will be the case with Lime Grove
Owners lines when other peoples
trees commence to bear as the market
will be increased, for it will not be
long till the railroad will connect us
with the Eastern States and open a
market in Prescott, and many other
towns on the road clear through to
Texas.--ONE WHO INTENDS TO
PLANT A LIME GROVE.

How to Burn Ccal.

A very common mistake is made, and
much fuel is wasted, in the manner OF
replenishing coal fires, both in furnaces
and CRATES. They should be fed with a
little coal at time, and often; but, SER
wants, to save time and trouble, puE on
great deal at once, the first result be-
ing that'nearly all the heat is absorbed
by the newly put on coal, which does not
give out heat until 1t has Itself become
red hot. Hence, for while, the room is
cold, but when it becomes fairly aglow
the heat is insufferable. The time to re-
plenish a coal fire is as soon as the Goals
begin to show ashes ON their surface;
then Put on merely enough to show a
layer OF black coal covering the red.
This will soon kindle, and as there is not
much OF it, an excess Of heat will not be
given out. Many almost put out the fire
BY stirring the CRATE as soon as the fresh
coal is put on, thus leaving all the heat
in the ashes when it should be sent to
the new supply of coal. The time to stir
the fire is just when the new coal laid
on is pretty we'll kindled. This method
of managing coal fire is troublesome,
but 1t saves fuel, gives more uniform
heat, aud prevents the discomfort OF
alterations OF heat and cold above re-
fewed to.

Victor Emmanuel and the Farmer.

The King OF Italy is first-rate shot.
1t is not 50 many years ago that, having
in a mountain expedition wandered
away from all those who were with him,
he came to a solitary mountain farm,
Just after he had shot a hare. The tar
mer, who had seen the shot, compli-
mented the stranger sportsman on the
excellence of his shooting. The King
admitted that he did consider himself a
pretty fair shot.
II wish to heaven" said the farmer,
looking at him wistiully, ,sthat you could
shoot fox that robs my poultry-yard
almost every night! I'd give a motta
an obsolete Piedmontese piece, worth
eight cents, ] to have him kIlledp
"PerhapsI 1 couldp said the King.
"But you must be here about 8 o'clock
| In the morning. That's about the time
| be always comes"
"Welli a motta, you say! I'll try for
| it. PHI be here about that lime to-mor-
row mornipgl'
Accordingly, without allowing any one
to know the errand on which ne was
bound, the King found himself at the
mountain homestead at the appointed
hour, and posted himself in favorable
position for watching the proceeding OF
the depredator Of the farm-yard. Rey-
nard did not make himself long waited
| for, but fell dead at the first shot OF the
| royal marksman, to the great delight Of
| the farmer, who, true to his word, came
down with his motta on the hail ham
somely. The King pocketed the coin
aud weBt off to exhibit it with greai
glee, as ssthe first money he had evel
earned by the work Of his own hands"
