GOOD PAY.

A farmer asked boy what he
would work for him for one year.
The farmer was close on a bargain,
and the boy knew it. Says the boy,
| will work for you if you'll give me
one ear of corn for the first week,
two ears for the second four for the
third and doubliug each week until
the fifty weeks or the year is out
Good said the farmer. The boy be
gan work, and took one ear for the
fret week two for the second, four
the third, eight for the fourth, six,
teen for the eth, thirty>two for the
sixth. Hold on, The farmer said,
you are taking too many. Not at
all, says the boy ; Pm but carrying
out the contract. The farmer began
to figure how many ears the boy
would take 10 6fty-two weeks, and
to his establishment found he wound
be entitled to 2,456, 59G, 257, 463, sos
ears. He could never pay him, and
agreed to give him fair wages if be
would let him off from the contract.

SOMETHING ABOUT TIE PROFITS
OF FLORIDA GROVES.

Seth French, of Jacksonville, Fla,
an old and experienced orange grow
er, gives the following as an esti>
mate of the cost of an orange grove,
according to locality:
Cost of ten acres of land for q
grove, 500 to 500; cost of clearing,
500 to $3.50; cost of fencing, $50
to So; cost of breaking, $40 to
S25; cost of setting out 500 trees,
5000 to $500; cost of care and fer
Trying, five years, $500 to 81, 900;
total cost, 1920 to 81, 800. Ia add
ton to this the young trees cost,
ready for setting out, from SO to 80
cents each At the age of nine or
zen years from the seed the trees be-
gin to produce, the average being
about FIVE hundred oranges to the
tree. Fer the next two years the
increase in production is Erapid, be-
ing about one thousand oranges lper
tree each year. There are quite
lot of trees in Florida that produce
10, 900 oranges, but these are aged,
having been planted before the war.
Oranges, like apples, have their
"off' years, but at fifteen years from
the seed, it is safe to say that the
trees will produce, on an average.
5000 oranges each There are fifty
trees to one acre, according to Mr..
French's figures given above, though
it is usual to set out sixty, which at
5000 oranges per tree, would give
100000 oranges as the yield of
ten acres. These, at II cents apiece
as they hang on the tree, the average
price this season, would give S22,-
500 of the ten acres. This estimate,
let it be borne in mind, is low one,
for some FIoridians are this year re-
alizing $50, 900 from six acres. The
Florida orange crop this year is
much larger than ever known before.
From such counties as are easily ac-
cessible the figures point to a crop of
about $4,000 boxes In Putnam
county alone the 1879 yield was
nearly 5, 500, 900 oranges, and next
year, with the large number of
blooming trees thst will come into
bearing. the crop will amount to %
100000 oranges. 1t will require
train of ten cars once day for nine
ty days to transport the crop of this
county.

such man is lost at the wane of a

Whatever it was, use it as much aft

He is just as queer a compound as
you are, with just as many whims

dependent upon; aud the greater
your dependence the better he likes
it. He is fond of comparing himself
to the oak and yOn to the ivey. He
is selfish, unreasonable, egotoistical
animal, and you must make q
man of him |; and you cannot do it
with the bald, headed end of .
broom. He is to be- won with the
same arts and witcheries with which
you won him. If you win him all.
You make his home and his happi~

him. Tell him often that you love
him, he knows it but the assurance
is none the less sweet.

JUDGE David Davis speech IL the
United States Senate, urging the re-
peal of the psper>pulp duty will
make him The presidential candidate
of every newspaper 10 the land. The
Senator from Illinois said that the
press was one of the wonders attend
ing the growth of our institutions
In the history of the human race
there was nothing comparable to this
development. 1t was not only the
bulwark of liberty, but the mighty
popular instructor, more benehcient
and wide reaching than any other
agency, but the Christian religion,Of
which it was one Of the main props.
Complaint was made that this power
was sometimes abused, aud that men
in public life were too often censo-
riously criticised. It would be sad
day for The Republic when the crit,
cisms upon the acts and speech of
senators and representatives should be
curbed, and q still sadder day when
those acts and that speech could not
invite the starnest criticism. What
food was to the body the press was
to the mind. II had become . daily
necessity aud nourishmeut, from the
home of the rich to the cabin of the
pioneer on the plains, whose brain
and muscle were intregal parts Of the
empire in the West. To make the
press wholly independent, and to
widen its influence, every restriction
of unwise or unjust laws ought to be
removed.
