Parnell and the Land Question

LONDON, Oct Hat monster land meet
ing at Landlord today, Parnell said the solu-
ton of the land question would depend upon
the efforts of the the Irish people during the
winter. He insisted above all on the necessity
OF organization. All measures of the govern
ment against the agitation would fail before
the united organized people. The government
could imprison individuals but never an entire
nation.

it is the removal OF such wood, as to
an experienced eye, is of no benefit
to the tree, as partially decayed. spur
branches, halt dead thorns, ETC., and
opening out the tree to the influence
of the air. Give your tree a good
shape from the start and il will grow
up SO, and this can only be done by
the judicious use OF the pruning knife
and shears, especially in seedlings.
All water shoots growing up in the
interior should also be removed. If
taken in time these can be easily
rubbed off with the hand.

The Monticello Constitution says otit:
'iThe energetic and courteous pro-

leading hotel Of Savannah, has a new
advertisement in to-day's Constitution,
calling special attention to the at
fractions offered by said house TO the
travelling public. We have SO often
made references to the Marshall
House, its popular manager, its clever
and courteous clerk. Col. Harnett, its
elegantly furnished rooms, and its
bountifully supplied tables, and its
corps OF attentive walters, it is un-
necessary to reiterate. The people
of this section when they visit Sa.
vannah, always stop at the "Marshall"
and they will continue to do so as
long as Bresman and Harnett run

Pruning Orange Trees.

There is hardly man in hundred
that understand how an orange tree
should be pruned. They cut and rip
away, destroying the tree and then
come to the conclusion that orange
trees should not be pruned at all.
There are certain limbs of the tree
which i'll the course of time nature
will naturally shed; judicious prun-
ing consists in taking off those parts
and assisting nature, allowing the
whole sap and strength of the tree
to invigorate those limbs that are to
remain and form the tree. Pruning
is not the cutting off of all the limbs

duty as an organ started on purpose
to give advice and assistance to the
agriculturists of the State and help to
overcome obstacles in the way of
progress, because, forsooth we may
deter few timid folks from coming
here. ALI we can say is this, that
the person who comes to this State
with the idea that he has no enemies
to contend with, as in other places,
and that it is life of pleasure with
out work, had better keep away. We
don't want them. 1t is not such
men that have made the bearing or
ange groves and comfortable homes.
People are not deferred from going
to Kansas because grassEoppers eat
up their grain every other year, or to
Minnesota, because the cold takes off
the noses and fingers of few people
every year, nor do the northern PEG.
pie stop planting potatoes an account
of their enemy, the bugs, nor do they
cease making peach orchards because
the yellows, curculio. borers and
few other enemies attack them.
Those who come to settle here shall
know full well what they have got to
contend with and if they are wise
they will take their measure accord
ingly. Not one single immigrant
shall be brought into the State by
erroneous statements, and under false
impressions. if we can prevent it.
The merits of the country are strong
enough for us to stand on, and it is
only those who have worthless lands

giving instructions to those who
come SO as to enable them to escape
the snares that beset the old settlers
and ruined SO many Of them, while if
they had had some instructions they
might have now been prosperous.
Those old settlers who prospered by
shere pluck, are now giving their ex.
periences in the paper and helping
the new ones, and nobly they are do
ing their duty. They may differ in
the mode Of proceeding but their ar
ticles are invaluable to those who
have got to learn. Don't tell US any.
thing about soaring away people by
tales Of scale bugs. Don't you sell
them worthless land and starve them
out. Truth never yet injured any

a good one we would not be found
