The Profits OF Tree Culture.

From the San Francisco Chronicle.
Eight years ago an eniigrant from an east
ern state arrived in one Of the bay counties
with his family and capital Of SIS. He
had some knowledge of horticulture, and
was good practical gardener. A capitalist,
who was the owner of some comparatively
useless land, contracted with this emigrant
for planting and tending forty acres of this
land in Australian gums or eucalyptus. The
breaking, fencing, planting and labor on
the land cost the owner So. 800 At the end
of the first year he had $4,000 thrifty trees,
a1d the second year he set out the shaded
ground in pasture, which retained its verdi
ure nearly throughout the entire twelve
year to year. At the beginning of the third
year he utilized this pasture for dairy COWS,
and found it strong enough to support two
COWS to the acre. lie estimated the value for
this use at 81 per month per acre for eight
months out of twelve, or $32 per year
per acre. The total yearly profit from this
source was 81 $3.50.
At the end of the eighth year he was offer
ed in cash by the keepers Of wood yard
thirty cents each for his trees, or $3.50 per
acre, the purchaser to pay all the cost of
cutting and removing the timber The total
value was SO 900, but in the mean time the
owner Of the land bad had five years use of
the pasture, which, by his own close esti-
mate, was worth to him $4,000 This
makes the grand total of gross earnings in
eight years $15, 800. From this must be
deducted $500 paid out for the nursery
plants. fencing and labor. and an expense
of $500 for water for irrigation during the
first two years, leaving q net income of $11, =
500, or $287. SO per acre for the eight years,

MOONLIGHT.

rat literary club meeting in Augusta re-
;ently the following unpublished college poem
~ Hawthorne was read, written in 1895. The
novelist was a shy young senior in Bewdoin
when he wrote the lines. He gave them to a
hum and classmate Of Augusta:l
We are beneath the dark blue sky
And the moon If shining bright;
Oh! what can lift the soul so high
As the CLEAN Of q summer night?
When all the gay are hushed to aleep,
And they who mourn forget to weep
Beneath the gentle light.
Is there no holier, happy land,
Among these distant spheres,
Where we may meet that Swallowed band,
The dead of other years?
Where all day long the moonbeams rest,
And where at leng,h the souls are blest
or those who dwell in tears?
Oh! if the happy ever leave
The bowers of bliss on high, III
To cheer the hearts of those who grieve
.. And wipe the tear-drop dry,
Tits when moonlight sheds it's ray,
More pure and beautiful than they,
And earth is like the sky!

The Poet Bryant's Difiidence.

Mrs. Legget in the Detroit Post and Tribune.
Once we talked Of difident persons; he
thought this might be classed with the
trials of life, and said that with him this
feeling amounted to bashfulness. Often
he had gone to a church and would feel SO
difident before he entered that he could
not get up courage enough to do it, and
would come away. And sometimes as he
was led to a seat there, would find himself
in such an agitation that drops of perspira-
tan would fall from his face.
This is strange. / said, .sfor you, who

CANNON AIDING.

WIENER youthful lover
His counting has begun,
Howitzer prizes him to learn
That tits not always fun.
For instance, when he's planned his siege,
And thinks the missile lie,
The girls distrustful parent
Shows him a trigger two.
And as with much momentum d
he down the steps doth glide,
And on the picket fence doth land.
He feels much mortar fled.
The maiden in the meantime
Escapes into the yard
And shrieks, with much emotion.
My pa has struck Petard.n
The young man thinks it over,
And, though he'll not declare it,
Concludes since he can't bullet,
That he will have to bear it.
