The Good Time Coming.

While drones and dreaming optimists protest,
"The worst is well, and all is for the BEST"
And sturdy croakers chant the counter song
That "man grows worse, and everything is
wrong;"
Truth, as OF old, still lives golden mean,
And shuns extremes to walk erect between!
The world improves; with slow, unequal
pace.
"1he Good Times coming" to our hapless
race,
The general tide beneath the refluent surge
Rolls on, resistless, to its destined verge
Uniriendly hills no longer interpose
AS stubborn walls to geographic foes,
Nor envious streams run only to divide
The hearts of brethren ranged on either side
Promethcan Science, with untirilg eye
Searching the mysteries Of the earth and
And cunning Art, with strong and plastic
10 work the marves Science may command
And broad winged Commerce, swift to carry
DER
Earth's countless blessings to her farthest
Shore
These, and no German nor Genevan sage,
These are the great reformers of the age!
See Art, exultant in her stately car.
On Natures litans wage triumphant war
While cen the Lightnings by her wondrous
skill
Are tanned for heralds of her sovereign will
Old Oceans breast new invader feels,
And heaves in vain to clog her iron wheels
In vain the Forests marshal all their force.
And Mountains rise to stay her onwart
course:
From ont her path each bold opposer hurled
She throws her girdle round a captive world

All the coffee grown in the New
World has sprung from single plant,
which a French naval officer carried to
Martinique in 1920, depriving himself
of water when parching with thirst in
order to nourish his coffee plant. From
this one tree, it is said, all the Ameri-
can tropical colonies obtained their
seed, which has multiplied to such an
extent that Brazil, Mexico and the West
Indies produce as much coffee as Java
and Ceylon.

HEALTH AND CLIMATE,

HEALTH AND CLIMATE.
All health seekers. whether from Northern
or Southern States, should try the climate of
the Iableand. The recent United States
Census shows it TO be almost the only district
east OF the Rocky Mountains, entirely ii ee from
maarial, pulmonary and intestinal diseases.
The Plateau has double climate. one
resulting from latitude and the other from
elevation. The air is pure and invg'i atng.
The water is freestone cool and sparkling.
Mineral springs are numerous.
The mean summer temperature is ~ deg.
Fahr., and in winter 81 deg Fair. The
nights are always cool aud refreshing.
The soil is sandy loan upon mulatto
clay subsoil lis light, frable holds manure.
is easily cultivated and responds readily and
generously to the least fertilizer
CROPS AND GRASSES.
Corn. wheat, rye oats, and barley all grow
well, though this is not claimed as a grain
growing soil. Tobacco is a profitable crop
here, as also is sorghum. Herd grass, orchard
grass, German and pearl Inllet, timothy and
red clover have all been tried, aud take hold
ard root well. Kentucky blue grass also
thrlves wherever introduced. The natural
pasturage is abundant.
VEGETABLES
Grow abundantly Cabbage, onions, beans,
sweet and Irish potatoes all make a fine return.
The Irish potatoes are unexcelled by any
grown in America Sweet potatoes and onions
yield 500 Bushels per acre. il..
FRUIT AND GRAPE CULTURE.
This region is especially adapted to fruit,
and particularly to the winter apple and the
grape. The apple crop here has never been
Known to fail. The trees are healthy, and the
fruit smooth, plump juicy and firm. rarely
ever speaking or rotting. The grape is also a
sure crop where proper varieties are planted
The vines are robust, and the grapes make
excellent wines, which are in good demand
these two fruits are destined to become the
great and staple products of the Iabeand.
Strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, cur
rams, cherries, plums. and nearly all the small
fruits thrive and bear prolifcally.
