Ina paper on Pig Culture at the North
Success" Mr.. g. F. Nedham, OF Washington.
makes the emphatic statement that no other
crop can be raised which will give so certain
ard go large returns IN our middle and north
ern states as that delicious fruit, the fg He
SAYS The fig fourshes in much more m
favorable climates than our own. In Great
Britain. for instance, figs have been grown in
the open AIR for more than 500 years; the
original trees brought from Italy By Cardinal
Pole still bearing. Now, If IN that damp, ioggy,
misty, mostly atmosphere, where melons
and cuclmbers cannot be grown, the hg will
succeed, how much more will it flourish in our
bright and sunny climate The climate oi our
north temperate zouo is one OF the best possi-
bic for the full development OF the fig. Il is
well-tnown fact that too great heat is inimical
to this plant; 1t causes the tree to cast its
fruit Our northern chimes are superior 10 the
southern for another reason-our days are
several hours longer than at the south, which
gives a heightened and tempered day, which
precisely suits the fig. Countries where figs
are grown as an article OF commerce are ex-
posed to similar vicissitudes of climate as are
our northern states. have before me letter
from gentleman in Massachusetts,, ID which
he SAYS: u was born in the Leyant, and j
was resident 10 Constantinople one winter
when the Golden Horn (the Bosporus) was
frozen over and there was snowfall OF 1s to
20 inches for q couple OF weeks. without injury
to the fig trees in the vicinity The reason
that the fig tree yield so abundantly is not only
that 1t is prolific but, first, because the fruit
has no insect enemies, and secondly, the wood
has no blight or disease. Every other species
OF fruit trees gives the grower world OF
trouble on account Of these. OF these facts all
are too we'll aware. Common sense is quite as
necessary in fig growing as elsewhere. A cor
respondent informs me that he has :" zig tree
with 35 sprouts What kind OF an apple tree
would that be? He would have 10 wait 8 long
time for any apples, and then they would be
smaller by degrees and beautifully less.' Cut
of all these sprouts but one and plant them,
and in the sweet by-and-by" You Will have
! 35 trees.
The writer gives the testimony or Gen.
worthingtoD, after an experience OF years IN
cultivating igs in Ohio, that the fig plant suits
the climate there wonderfully, lie easily pro-
tected, is a sure bearer, and is very prolific.
When fozr or FIVE years old the trees produce
from the same area, with less labor, greater
and more certain crop than either potatoes on
tom..oes, What is true OF Ohio the writer
claims is true of the whole north.

You win always miss your Lizzie,
AT morning, noon, and night.
We seldom prizs the sunlight,
Until the dreary night
Comes closing down upon as;
and then we realize
How beautiful IS morning
With its blne and sunny skies.
And thus it is with all Mfes Joys,
They fade away SO soon
We loIter with the morn awhile
And then behold It's noon;
We Iipger for the zepbyr's cool
And seek moments rest,
And, behold the san s sinking
Low In the golden west
We believe our friends ara dear to as,
But oh when death divides,
And we wait in VAN the footsteps
Now on The other side;
When we listen for the music,
We on earth shall hear no more,
And know it nov is echoing
Upon the other shore,
Then our loved-ones are tenfold more dear.
Than ever they we're before.
But you would not call your Lizzie back,
To suffer toll, and pain,
She has trnmphed over suffering,
Your loss to her is gam.
She has borne the cross, and now sbe wears
The vctor's crown above,
The crown OF life prepared for her,
Through Chrlst's redeeming love.
We know not what the day may bnng,
IL may be JOY or sorrow,
The joys to which we closely cling,
May not be ours tomorrow.
But this we know, Our Fathers band
win ever lead and guide US,
II We obey His sweet commands
No III shall eer betlde us.
Beyond our strength to bear-Hs love
The same to-day, forever
shall gather us and loved ones All,
al safe beyond the River.
