The more extensively one engages in
the raising of fruit as business the
smaller are the number of varieties he
cultivates. The largest orchardist in the
West, if not in the entire country, is Mr..
A. r. Whitney, of Franklin Grove, Lee
County, Ill. His apple orchard covers
a hundred and fifty-five acres and COM
prises $4,000 bearing trees. He has ex-
perimented, first and last, with hun
dred and seventy varieties of apples,
but at present raises only about thirty.
Were he to plant a new orchard he
would set out but nine varieties of trees
These nine varieties would be red astra-
chan, snow. maiden's blush, Bailey's
sweet, Dominic, Jonathan, Ben Davis,
willow-twig, and wine-sap.> Of course
in other localities different varieties
should be selected, but the number of
them should not be greatly increased

A Wasp Of Brains.

Mr.. Seth Green says in the Rochester
Democrat: Ever since l was a little boy
have frequently noticed that the nests of
mud wasps when broken in upon, would
shell out lot of dissected spiders and
other like insects in smaller proportion.
had always supposed that even so
formidable an insect as wasp would
hardly want anything to do with good,
full-grown spider, for 1 knew enough of
the cOmbatitiveness of the latter to pre-
sumo that he would not meekly submit
to the sacrifice of his progeny to satisfy
the appetite of a wasp. But one day
saw little demonstration which made
the whole thing very clear to me. You
know of the careful manner in which the
spider builds and encloses the nest
in which his young are brought
forth and :rearedp Well, 1 was observ-
ing one of these nests one morning,
when saw a mud wasp come buzzing
along and alight within an inch or two
of it, on the side opposite the opening.
After all was quiet he proceeded with his
little game of strategy. ~.
Creeping noiselessly around toward the
opening or entrance to the nest, he
stopped little short of it, and for a mo-
ment remained perfectly quiet. Then
reaching out one of his antenne, he
wriggled it before the opening and with
drew it. This overture had the desired
effect, for the boss of the nest, as large a
spider as one ordinarily sees, came out
to see what was wrong and to set it to
rights. No sooner had the spider
emerged to that point when he was at
the worst disadvantage than the wasp,
\ hor inly
swung the rear portion of his body
around and thrust his sting through the
body of his foe, killing him easily and
almost instantly. The experiment was
repeated on the part of the wasp, and
when there was no response from the in
side he became satisfied, probably, that
he held the fort. At all events, he pro-
ceeded to enter the nest and slaughter
the young spiders, which were afterward
lugged off one at time.
q. You see this accounts fully for the
spider Innings which we always see in
the nests of mud wasps, and makes it all
as clear as if that particular wasp had
told me beforehand just what he pro-
posed by his strategy to accomplish.
Now it is just such demonstrations as
this which must convince us of the in
telligence of the lower animals, differing
only in degree and development from
the intelligence of man. OF course,
much of this goes beyond my compre-
hension, but understand more about it
now than ever before, for 1 have taken
pleasure in observing and studying not
only the habits of fish, but of many other
creatures inferior to man, which are pop
ularly supposed to be governed in their
actions by instinct.

respondent. "Well, they talk about
Maude Branscombe and Mary Anderson

combined. She poses as hat-block be-
fore the camera several times every week
of her life. The fashions shown in the
plates used by half of the milliners in the
United States, as well as in the millinery
pictures in three of the leading fashion
weeklies, are all provided by this con-
Germ. They are obtained by photograph

Illustrating the new styles. This girl, as
you see, has what may be called mega
tive face. Her features are small, regu-
lar and without any strong characters

and commonplace. With such face,
any possible style of hat or bonnet is be-
coming, and they use her in all the pho
