That cultivated varieties of fruit tree
would do equally we'll in the same sit
uations seems certain. Trees prefer
broken land, and the finest specimens
can generally be found in places that
are of no value for producing ordinary
farm crops. Still farmers and horti-
cnlturists reject these places and plant
trees for producing fruit in a smooth
field, where forest trees are seldom
found. 1t is evident that they do not
s'list to natures teachings" which, in
the matter of tree production, are wor-
thy of the highest regard. Trees planted
by the sides of streams and ravines are
highly ornamental, and serve to beau
tify the farm as few things can. When
trees stand in q single row or are scat
tered about the farm they are more
likely to receive attention than when
they are in an orchard, for the reason
that they are more conspicuous. It
is easy to discover worms nests in
them, and to remove them, or to notice
interfering branches and to cut them off.

Rescued from the Grave.

'It sounds like good deal to say,
but once knew a man who died and
was buried on the overland trail to
California, and afterward made his ap-
pearance in the placer mines at Prickly
Pear City-and it wasn't his ghost
either, but himself in the fiesh.'' This
was the reply which well-known resi-
dent of Helena, Montana, made to s.
reporter who was applying the reminis-
cence extractor. -
ssIn the spring of 1917 continued the
citizen, "when the California gold ex-
element was at its height, in company
with large party crossed the plains.
After getting well under way the cholera
broke out among us and several died
Among other deaths was that of man
named w. H. Clark, of Henry County
Missouri. We buried him near the point
where the old Santa Fee trail crossed
but wrapped him in his blankets, and,
inclosing him in a covering or bark
stripped from the cottonwood trees, we
planted him about seven feet deep in
the sand, and piled logs on the grave to
keep the wolves from digging him up.

and was then attracted to Montana by
the gold excitement. In 1868, while in
the diggings at what is known as Mon
tana City, I was startled at meeting
Clark, whom, with my own eyes, had
seen buried on the Arkansas River
nineteen years before. The recognition
was mutual, and on my expressing my
surprise he related to me that after our
own party had buried him and pro-
ceeded on toward California party Of
Indians came along, and, seeing his

Small Monkeys.

| In physicians residence up town,
yesterday, a San reporter held in the
palm OF his outstretched hand two
monkeys, and they were not cramped
for room to lie down in. 1t was q
medium sized hand. The two monkeys
weighed together 81 ounces, and were
apparently about the size of small
rats, but their bodies were small
and were clothed with long fur.
Their tails were as bushy as squir-
rers, and their eyes were as bright
as diamonds. When finger was point
ed at them they bumped their backs
like kittens and chartered vociferously
When the finger came in biting dis
lance it was seized with apparent i'll
nature, but the bite was like that of the
tiniest kitten.
ave call one Grosvenor and the other
Bunthorne," said the ply sician .Gros-
venor is the smaller and the prettier.
His favorite perch is on my wife s Shout
der, where he will sit for hours while she
sews. Bunthorne is more venturesome
than Grosvenor, and this little eccen-
tricity came near losing him to us yester-
day. In fact, we thought he was lost
all the afternoon and evening and all
night, and we advertised in morning
newspaper that we would give a liberal
reward for his return. But the little
| chap had not gone far. He had crept
out behind the Stats of the blinds on the
parlor window, and climbed up that vine
which runs up to the top of the house.
There he must have remained all night.
We found him in the dining
room this morning sprawling on
his back on the floor, and
squealing and winning like sick baby.
He was hungry and tired, and verv
sleepy. While Bunthorne was gone
Grosvenor fretted and lost his appetite,
and refused to be comforted. You
should have seen the reunion this morn
ing-it might almost be called affect
ing.
''They are very dainty eaters,'' con-
tinued the physician, land we have to
study their bill of fare carefully. Their
choicest dainty. is flies. but they won't
catch them for themselves; they are too
lazy."-N. Y. San.
