PLANT AS YsU Go.-When a
Spaniard eats a peach or . pearby
the roadside, wherever he 10, he digs
hole in the ground with his foot
and covers the seed. Consequently,
all over Spain aud elsewhere, fruit
in great abundance tempts the taste,
and is ever free. Let this practice
be initiated in our country, and tho
weary wanderer will be blest, -
also the hand that ministered to bis
comfort and joy. We are bound to
feave the world a. good OF better
than We found it, and he 10 q selnsh
churl who basks under the shadow
and eats the fruit Of trees which
other hands have planted, II he viii
not also plant treeS which shall yield
fruit to coming generations.
