Coffee Culture in Mexico.

The culture of coffee in Mexico is be-
coming more extensive and profitable
industry than is generally known.
There are now many large coffee plant
atoms in the country. and the amount
of capital and labor invested increases
largely with every year. The land can
be purchased for about $40 per acre,
and the work required to clear and
prepare it for the coffee plant is slight
in most localities. The plants, from
six months to year old, are set in
rows from eight TO ten feet apart, and
about six feet apart in the row. COT
fee is often produced two years from
the planting of the seed, but profitable
bearing begins only when the plant is
four or five years old. AT the end of
seven years the field will be sufficient
to repay the owner for all previous out
lay and labor, and the land does not
require replanting for many years.
Another advantage in favor Of coffee
culture is that the raising of many
other varities of tropical fruit can be
combined with il by planting between
the rows. The coffee tree, when left
alone, will grow to height of from
fifteen to twenty feet feet, but it is usu-
ally nipped about six feet from the
ground, thus giving more vigor to the
branches and stock. The berries
while growing are of grassy green,
but when ripe turn to a bright red
Though the plant is continuously how-
ering and developing fruit, the actual
harvest season is from November 10
April The berries when gathered are
spread to dry in the sun. after which
they are huled and stored away. COT

The craft of the photographer is en-

photography. On their return the
sable queen insisted at once having o
proof Of their skill and sitting was
accordingly arranged for All went
well, and the artists battered themselves
that they had produced portrait
which would be sure TO please. Great
was their establishment, therefore,
when the august sister flew into vio-
lent passion and threatened them with
execution. What was wrongp Mere.
ly that one among the multitudinous
poodles in whose companionship the
queen delights, had come into the
room while the process was taking
place, and, of course it was photo
graphed simultaneously with its mis-
tress. Could anything be more intol-
cradle? The likeness of dog in the
same picture with that of the queen OF
Burmah! Rough hands at once laid
hold of the two artists, and when last
heard of they were still in durance vile,
pending the decision of the question
as TO whether such q flagrant insult to
royalty could be eypiated by any light
er punishment than decapitatlon. We
trust mercy prevailed and the delin-
quents were allowed TO take their de-
parture without abbreviation. The in
cdent shows, however, that portrait
taking is still dangerous vocation in

Touching Evidence Of Instinct.

Something called the attention. OF the
hunters away from the spot, and when
they returned half hourafterward,
they found the mother bear standing
over her lifelcss cub. apparently en-
gagged in licking and caiessing its head.
A couple of well-directed shots soon
stretched the she bear by the side of
her dead offspring, and the hunters APP
preached TO secure their game. To
their surprise they found the bullet
wound in the cubs head partly filed
with finely chewed grass and leaves
