marked that when our fruit is most
abundant it is of the poorest quality"
There is good deal of truth in the remark,
and it comprises mild kind of censure
upon fruit-growers, especially when it is
found that year of great abundance is fol-
abstractly upon this condition of things,
it might be concluded that good fruit would
be the rare exception as seen in our mar
kets, and the reasoning is not far from being
borne out in fact, as all who have studied
the various fluctuations of our fruit markets
can readily indorse. To secure the best
quality of fruit, trees must not be allowed
to overbear-that is, to bear more fruit than
the tree is able to ripen to normal degree
Of perfection, and thus large quantities of
fruit are produced, and that of very in
ferior quality, to be followed by a season of
scarcity, causing the alterations of a bear
ing year and barren gear in orchards. The
comparatively inferior heavy crop checks
the growth of the tree to that extent that
the following season is required for its re-
| cuperation. This can be obviated by little
careful management in thinning out the
fruit when it has set in excess. BY this
means moderate crop Of the best quality
of fruit can be secured yearly and orchards
be made doubly remunerative as compared
with the let-alOne system of management
The greatest objection to thinning fruit on
trees is its cost, but those who have had the
IL III
it to be profitable outlay. 1t is always
wise to economize labor, but that does not
mean that it is wisdom to withhold labor
when it can be employed proftably, and
those who have experience in thinning out
peaches when the trees were overloaded
maintain that it is an outlay which pays
better than any other expenditure on the
farm.
HARVESTING WHEAT.-Experiments in
dictate that the best time to cut wheat is
shortly after it passes the milky condition
and toughens to a doughy consistency.
When harvested thus early the grain is
heavier and better and makes better flour
than when it is perfectly ripe before being
cut. An experiment., AIMING OtheiSI iS It,
corded of farmer who harvested his wheat
at three different stages of three days apart,
and then had 100 pounds Of each harvest
made into flour, with the following result:
That cut in the milky state gave % pounds
of -four pounds of shorts, and 16 pounds
of bran per 100 pounds Of grain; that cut
In the dough gave 50 pounds of flour, 5
pounds of shorts and 13 pounds of bran,
and that cut when fully ripe gave ~ pounds
OF flour, ii pounds of shorts, and 10 pounds
OF bran There was two pounds of waste
In each lot. Early cut wheat also measurably
escapes the evil effects of rust. When rust
attacks wheat it rapidly .deteriorates the
stem, so that few days may render it COM
! paratively worthless.

GERANIUNS AS BEDDING PLANTS.-The
scarlet geranium is one of the most satislac-
tory of bedding plants for sunny dry eli
mate. The variety known as Gen. Grant" !"
has maintained its reputation as one of the
best of the single Towering kinds for nearly
twenty years. This was imported under the
name of King of Scarlets," a name which it
held for several years, until it received the
name by which it is now and has for many
years been known.
1t is still one of the most reliable sorts for
fine growth and large heads of flowers.
Single varieties of all colors are now being
superseded by semi-double and double kinds.
For outdoor decoration the semi-double sorts
are preferable; the colOrs are of the best, and
the flowers are more lasting than those of the
single Towering sorts. The heaviest double
Towering sorts are much inferior for border
decoration to the semi-dOuble, but for green
house flowers during winter and spring they
are very superb. The variegated-leaved sorts
are also valuable for greenhouses, but for
summer bedding plants, except in Northern
localities, they are of no use whatever.

Tie Hash Bill Campaign

The Austin RereiUe thus Crap
pies with the solient points OF
the recent campaign as follows :
Now that the election is over
the question as to whether
Powning really owes Mr.. Mitch
ell, of Grass Valley, California,
an old hash bill will probably
be. laid aside for future refer
ence. The old hash bill which the
Virginia Enterprise unearthed
in Gold Hill against Cassidy will
doubtless be similarly disposed
of. Which ever proves to be
the successful candidate for Con-
gress should be generous enough
to pay both these bills. The
editor of the Enterprise should
apologize to Mrs Becker, Cas-
s;dy's former landlady in Gold
Hill, for speaking of her as an
old, gray headed. broken-down
widow woman. She is not of
of that description, but simply
fat, fair and younger than the
Enterprise editor

Heavy DAMAGES,

The jury in the case of Brown
VS.. Evans in the L. s. Circuit
Court awarded the plaintiff dam
ages to the extent Of $3.50 81.
OF this $4O0 was for medical at
tention, 800 for loss of time
during sickness, and the rest for
the broken nose. Although the
charge was that Evans assaulted
Brown with Il shovel, the testi-
mony showed that it was done
with The naked fist. Reno peo-
pie think the verdict accessiveas
Brown had been aggravating
Evans for years by threats of
law suits etc. and was in hot
water with almost everybody.
1t was charged that Evans struck
the plaintiff from behind but the
damage was all in the face. The
case will be appealed.

4 Curious Case.

About Two years ago four
Italian coal turner's were sem
fenced to a term in the States
Prison for stealing a team and
buggy from their employer in
Eureka. At the trial the de
PENDANTS made go defense, and
being poor did not retain an at
torney. Since the sentence facts
have come to light which make
it almost certain that the men
are innocent. 1t appears that
the man who owned the team
owed the men money, and there
was a dispute about it. They
could not fully understand him
and he could not understand
them. They supposed that he
"duStd ~ SsNC titSJ1t tbV tSt'ii
Instead Of the money, and re-
fused to accept it. Afterwards
they concluded that it would be
better than nothing and went
back to tell him that they ac-
cepted it. He failed to under
stand them, but they, surprising
everything was all right, went
to his stable about an hour after
wards, took the team and buggy
and sold it. Parties who claim
to know of this circumstance
say that to this day the Italians
do not know for what crime
they were sentenced. Their
term of imprisonment expires in
a few months.

CHEATING AT WHIST.
Startlin. Developments at q
Church SOciabIe.

/
Sherman, the popular landlord
threw his parlors and spaciou
dining hall open to the guests
He arranged the hall for dancing
and refreshments, and the COSY
parlors for whist parti IS. Before
the church members began tt
arrive he placed a pack of cards
on both marble topped tables
ard allowed events to take theil
course. Now it happened that
some graceless wag who came in
early concluded to have a little
sport at the expense of the
church, and taking three aces
and couple Of jacks from one
pack exchanged them with three
queens and two kings from the
other and went down stairs to
dance with the girls. In about
half an hour the crowd came in
and presently two games of
whist were started. Among
the gentlemen were Judge
Hawley and Jasper Babcock at
one table, and Judge Sabin and
Parson Davis at the other. The
game progressed all right for
about one deal when it was
noticed that the players began
to eye each other with consider
able suspicion, and the next
deal went along in frigid sort of
atmosphere. Mr.. Babcock finally
took trick with an ace of the
same denomination which Judge
Hawley had played only a few
minutes before and it was the
fifth ace played in the deal.
81 trust" SAID the Judge
with studied dignity, d" that the
style Of card playing in vogue at
at the Capitol building will not
be introduced at a church
sociable."
81 play to win, Mr.. Hawley,"
replied Bah not understanding
the drift of the Judges remark,
sand I play my own way"
The Judge bit his lip as if
REFRESHING his feelings, and one
of the ladies remarked that
there seemed to be rather too
many cards Of a suit in the
game.
"If you mean me, Mrs.
-," retOrted the other lady
81 can simply say that you
started the cheating, and you
Judge other people by yourself.
l really believe that you have
some more packs up that imita-
ton lace sleeve"
The other lady slammed down
her hand and vowed she would
not play in Il game where she
had to be insulted by a Meth |
odist woman who had only just
Topped over into the Episcopal
Church because it was fashiona-
bic, and the game dissolved
right there, with Jasper Bah
cock demanding an apology of
Judge Hawley.
In the mean time war had
broken out in the other camp.
Parson Davis who always holds |
his cards rather below the edge
of the marble horizon of the |
table for safety, threw an
extra jack on Judge Sabin's
trick after four other jacks had
been played. The Judge called
his attention to the fact in mild
but firm tones, and the ladies
Joined in the matinee.

rather warmly. ''This is the

people right and left, its protection and
pardoning of public plunderers, its safe

reform and various schemes Of pious frand,
is a reason. The higgling and bargaining

feated. Add 10 these the river

profigate spending of the public funds,
unexampled extravaganza in appropria-
tions, refusal to reduce the oppressive and
superfuous protective tariff, forgery in
