Russian Apples--.A New Importation.

Horticultural Professor Budd, of the Iowa
Agricultural College, (writing to us for
specimens of the fruit of the Magog Red
Streak and SCOTS winter apples, of which
he says, al like the trees frstrate; they
are ripened up now, like crabs, y informs us
that he is receiving large assortment of
Russian apples from near Moscow. He
says "The agricultural college, twenty
miles north of Moscow, will send sixty va
rieties of winter apples, which they say are
as good in quality as any keeping apples
grown in Europe. DIR. Regel also sends me
a long list of winter apples grown near St.
Petersburgh. also am getting lot from
Simbrosh, southwest of Moscow. | have
faith to believe that these fruits will Irove
a great acquisition on our great open prair-
les" The Iowa college, in filling its chairs
with practical men like Mr.. Budd, who is
an orchardist and nurseryman of long ex-
perience, is making great stride towards
success. Industrial schools, in order to be-
come of much use, must be taught mainly
by men of industrial training. Placed in the
hands Of the same kind of teachers as those
of the literary institutions, they are sure to
do nothing to win the support of the class
designed to be benefited by them, and their
failure is then laid, not to the real cause,
but to the indifference of the industrial
classes to educational training. Oxford and
Cambridge have graduated men with the
degree of Doctor of Medicine these five hun
dred years, but practical medicine never
made much progress in England until the
" lower grades " of the profession, the
apothecaries and the surgeons, established
practical schools, dispensaries and hospitals,
in which the healing art was acquired, not
from merely reading Hippocrates, Galen
and Aristotle in the original Greek, or
Avcenna in Arabic, but in seeing and help
ing their teachers in their daily practice oi
anatomy, surgery, pharmacy and the care OF
patients. Thus, too it must be with agri-
cultural schools, before they can become
either popular or useful.

town, till came to the school building.
It was the hour of dismissal. A group of
children were hurrying out of the wide-open
door. l laid my hand on the shoulder of a
boy, and asked, ado you remember Miss
Ray, who used to teach in this school ?"
"Miss Ray our Miss Rayi" he replied.
"Why, there amt one of us fellers who for

and the boy brushed the gathering tears
from his eyes as he shook himself. from my

the street a gay tune but knew IL was TO

The Wealthy Apple,

Six years ago, Suel Foster of Muscatine,
Iowa, sent us scions of this fruit, then just
beginning to be introduced through the
northwest. Trees grown from those scions
have fruited for the first time the present
year, and indicate that the Wealthy will be
as great an acquisition to the colder parts of
Vermont as to the West. Writing to the
Country Gentleman about the state fair, lately
held at Cedar Rapids, Mr.. Foster says: "The
exhibit of fruits was rather small. The
crop is short, especially in the central and
northern parts of the state. | took several
specimens of the Wealthy apple there, which
originated in Minnesota few years ago
This apple, and especially the tree, has
gained so good and extensive reputation,
that it was sought for and admired, both in
beauty and quality, more than any apple
ever heard Of before" The Wealthy origi-
mated, from seed sent from Maine, on the
farm of Peter NJ. Gideon, Excelsior, Mimi,
twenty miles north of Minneapolis. As an
early and md-winter apple it is equal to
Fameuse, while the tree is as hardy as any
crab, aud almost as productive. The fruit
is very handsome, fair, and of the Fameuse
type, though large We are setting the
Wealthy, the Magog Red Streak and SCOTS
Winter, almost exclusively, as the only per-
fectly hardy winter apples within our knowl-
edge. Had we known of them ten years ago

Appeal to Voters.

The executive committee of the Womans
Temperance Union of Massachusetts,, who
are ever alive to the duties of the hour, have
issued the following appeal TO the Christian
voters of the state:
"For three long, weary years we have
watched with heavy hearts the struggle be-
tween the churches and the grog-shops.
With prayer and labor we have waited, but
never rested, hoping for the redemption of
our beloved commonwealth from the curse
of iutemperance. We know the power of
prayer and of Christian effort, and we know,
too, as only those can know whose mission
is among the homes of want and wretched-
ness, the degrading power of the grogshop.
We have lifted fallen men out of their de-
basement only to see them beguiled back
again by men who have received from the
state authority to prey upon their fellow
men. We have endeavored to teach the
people the value of abstinence from drink
and to train the young into temperate lives,
bat the state has undermined our work, and
the open dram-shop has been the more
powerful teacher. We are overmatched in
the moral struggle where the state sets
temptations to evil in the paths of the weak
and the public sentiment we are trying to
elevate is continually dragged downward
through liquor-selling made respectable by
law.
sour appeal is to you, Christian voters of
Massachusetts,, that you will in the coming
political campaign, by your action in caucus
and convention, do all you can to remove
this obstacle to the progress of the temper
ance work. We know your convictions upon
this subject; you are almost unit against
the licensed dram-shop The men who day
by day on Bonded knee lift up to God the
voice of prayer do not believe in licensed
temptations. Our appeal to You is that you
will act. You are bound by the most solemn
obligations to resist the establishment OF
iniquity by law. For the use of the ballot
you are accountable to the Master. This
great enemy of the Christian church and of
the h me is tolerated by votes; your votes
UW destroy il. Will you allow the caucuses
and conventions to he controlled by the
friends of the dramshops, and the legisla-
ture to be composed of men who will turn
deaf ear to the cry of the churches and the
reformed men, and send them empty away,
while it grants the petition of rumsellers for
the protection of their business viii you
not rather fill the halls of legislation with
men whose fear of God will inspire the
making of wise laws ?
"Our appeal to you is from the hearts of
thousands of Christian women that you will
not undo their labors of love; it is the cry
of thousands of reformed men that tempta-
ton may removed from their paths of aux
ious, broken-hearted wives and mothers,
that their homes no longer be desolated,
that their loved ones be spared. Must we
| wait longer? Has there not been enough
of woe aud wretchedness in the Christian
commonwealth Will you not see to it that
the duties of Christian citizenship are so
performed by you that the homes and the
churches of Massachusetts shall be shielded
from the perils of the licensed dram-shop ?"
Vermont watchman and State journal. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1836-1883, 1878-10-30

the unvarying laws of trade and political
economy Of which we hear so much, when
we wonder at such unequal distributions OF
the productions of mems labor Perhaps
so. Let the philosophers tell us what they
think about 1t, and we will listen.
But meantime the people are thinking.
They are thinking strange thoughts about
their Lawmakers. They are FESTIVE at their
own unsatisfactory condition in the midst
of so much apparent wealth. They ask
themselves whether the commodities that
are handled in these costly buildings by
men who live in palatial residences, or have
their abode in "palace hotels" are not too
much enhanced in cost thereby. They en-
quire If they do not pay too much for the
granite custom-houses, the marble postof-
fees, the deliberately architectural court
houses,-more than all they get out of them
is worth. They even ask whether the gor-
geous churches in which so much money is
sunk, and in which such magnifcence OF
apparel is displayed, are promoting that
gospel of which the foundation stone is the
equality of all men.
In church, in state, and in the trade and
business OF the country we suffer, and must
continue to suffer, for the wasteful expendi-
ture that has been going on so long. This
suffering is made manifest in the disturbed
condition of the whole people. 1t makes
them, to some extent, the easy prey of pre-
tended reformers and demagogues. But
they have not sought such leaders What
they would rejoice to see would be an in
teligent and wise and earnest taking hold
of these matters by those whom they have
been glad to recognize as their leaders,
trusted and honored in days past. Why do
they not come forward, render plain and
honest answer to the enquiries and demands
of the masses, and offer a solution of the
difficulties of the time2
To us it seems that unequal laws and the
spirit of display rather than use are together
responsible for much that we now depore,
and the consequences of which we tremble
to look at, or 10 anticipate. The course of
true economy in the nation is to equalize
the laws sternly repress waste and encour-
age industry. In the church let the pure
gospel of Christ, without the fear of men, be
| preached.

ronerr NOT rnr OLD FOLKS AT HOME.


ny LOUISE 4. rrHAN
Afar from the scenes your young hearts loved,
Afar from the homestead's shade.
o active women and busy men.
Your toillng feet have strayed.
Hut whether you strive In the public mart.
Or by hresides OF your own,
o never forget the home Of your youth,
And the couple who wait alone.
Their cups not trimming Ger with joys
Their hands are not fnll Of flowers;
They live In life's sivering, autumn years,
And dwell In lifes solemn hours.
When together they struggled mp llfe's far HILL
Child voices made music sweet
In their happy home. while their hearts kept time
10 the patter Of little feet.
Hut now ndown the shadowy side
They YEARLY move. and slow:
And their eyes grow dim, when with falterine tones
They speak Of the long ago"
They gave their youth, they gave their strength.
That their children might attain
To station. or wealth, or heights Of fame,
That never theirs to gain.
And now by the lonely hearth they wait,
whose years are almost done.
Like shocks Of corn that are whitening fast
In the mellow, autumn sun;
And the Benz amin. cup. In their burdened sacks.
The joy Of all priceless Joys,
Il the claspng hand and yearning heart.
And the love Of their " girls and boys"
So, never forget the dear " old folks"
And the blessings far away;
Far, farther OIL from their peace and rest.
Your feet each year will stray
And, by-rnd-by, when the turf il pressed
Der their graves, YOU will long, in vain.
For the loving smile and the welcoming kiss
That will never he yours again.
