High or Low Lands for orchards.

The Illinois Horticultural society,
at its recent meeting, struck some
thing new, judging from the report
of the same in the Prairie Farmer. II
was on the subject of high or low
lands for orchards.
Mr. Nelson's report opened up the
subject of high or low lands for or
chards Mr.. Robinson got more APP
pies from trees on low lands than
elevated sites. Prof. Budd did not
commit himself to either theory, but
remarked that some varieties do best
ON low lands, while others preferred
the higher situations Parker Earle
thought that this theory of low lands
for our apple orchards was contrary to
the past teachings of the society. his
opinion high grounds are preferable.
The subject was a complicated one
for Prof. Burrill. He had seen many
low ground orchards that had good
crops this year There are many
notifications that affect the crop 1t
is not merely the elevation of orchard
sites. 1t was his belief that high
ground, all things considered, is the
best
Mr.. Robinson was not enthusiastic
about the tile drainage Of orchards
Our trees need more water than they
usually get. They do not suffer from
too much water. but from dry sum
mers and rolling land. Mr. Spalding
of Sanqamon county, had found his
nursery trees poorest when planted
on a depressed surface He tiled ex-
tensiyely. His suhsoil was a clay loan.
Nine years ago he laid tile 81 feet
deep and 80 feet apart He did
not believe in manuring young trees.
Too rapid growth is not wanted.
Trees in Illinois grow as much in one
year as they do in two years in the
state of New York, where they raise
more fruit than we do The most
rapid growing trees are the tenderest.
He does not force the growth of his
orchard trees. He IS satisfied nur-
serymen have MANFRED their young
stock too much. The question Of high
or low land was not settled. 1t was
hard for members TO give up the old
theory that high lands are best fer
orchards in Illinois; but II may be set
down as a fact that the matter is hav-
ing wide discussion among fruit
men,

threatened with a 20 per cent. reduc-
ton.
A reduction of 10 per cent. has been
ordeved at the Traeconia iron works,
at Wareham, Mass.
A reduction Of 10 per cent. was or
dered week ago by the proprietors
of the iron companies at Martins Fer
nv. O. Meetings were held by the
men and the companies subsequently
took down the notices and will CON
tinue to pay the usual prices
A cut of of 10 per cent, was recent
~ made IN the wages of the employees
Of the Lancaster gingham mllls, at
Lancaster, Mass
The boys in the mule-rooIn of the
Asbury mills, at New Bedford, Mass,
struck, a few days ago, and conse-
quently threw all the spinners out of
employment. The strike lasted week,
when the boys won. 1t cost S., 600 a
day.
A 10 per cent. reduction took place
last week at Wilmington x Co. S, at
Stanton, Mass
The Philadelphia and Reading Iron
company closed Jan. Z, and 300 men
were thrown out of employment.
A - per cent. reduction has been
ordered in the mills of Mcclellan &
Co., at Pittsburg.
One-third the force IN the shoe fac
tories of Jonas & Shippee, at New
Milford, Mass, were discharged on
account of a lack of work, and the
others struck two weeks ago, but are
now at work.
The men employed in the locomo-
tive works of Porter & Bell, Pittsburg,
returned to the shops ON Jan. Z, after
having been out two weeks, through
a depression in trade.
Work has been suspended for the
week at No 2 Franklin colliery,
Scranton, Pa, and 500 men are IN
consequence idle.
The general depression is said to be
an unusual occurrence immediately
after the holidays. The coal and iron
regions are at present most seriously
affected, and TIE cotton and WOODEN
mills of New England. During the
past two weeks it is estimated that not
less than 81, 100000 was lost to the
capitalists and laborers Of the country.

The Indians have very satisfactory
account of the origin of the Montezu-
ma mosquitoes. The legend runs thus:
There were in times Of old, many
moons ago, two huge feathered mon
sters permitted by the Maniton to de-
send from the sky and alight on the
banks of the Senaca river Their form
was exactly that of the mosquito.
They were so large that they darken-
ed the sun like a cloud as they flew to-
ward the earth Standing one on
either bank they guarded the river and
stretching their long necks into the
canoes of the Indians, as they attempt
ed to paddle along the stream, gobbled
them up, as the stork- king in the fable
gobbled up the frogs. The destruc-
ton of life was so great that not an
Indian could pass without being de
voured in the attempt. 1t was long
before the monsters could be exter-
minated, and then only by the com
bined efforts of all the warriors of the
Cayuga and Onondaga nations. The
battle was terrible but the warriors
finally triumphed, and the mammoth
mosquitoes were slain and left unbur-
led. For this neglect the Indians had
to pay dearly. The carcasses decom-
posed and the PARTICLES, vivified by
the sun, flew off IN clouds of mOsqui-
toes, which have filed the country
ever since.

How a Drove of Mules Brought About
Wedding.

A little circumstance happened here
last fall that bore great issue, writes a
correspondent from Richmond, Va. A
triAe as light as air, yet made man
and woman meet that but for this
episode would never have known each
other. AS it is society talk, Of course
every one knows it, and l will narrate
it Just to show what inconsiderable
events, which some call chance and
others fate, shape our lives.
A large drove of mules just after
dark was taken from one of the cars
OF the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad
and corraled, but something stamped
ed them, and they dashed up the
street, a half hundred or so, with all
the chattering and fire of squadron
of cavalry at full charge. Pedestrians
Rugged the sidewalk or hurried into
the nearest open door and then looked
pantingly at the dim rushing mass.
Now it happened that a young lady
from Boston, Mass, who was on
visit here, was coming from friend s
house, and just as she was crossing
the street the head of the column
came toward her with the velocity of
an express train on a down grade. 1t
was so sudden that her presence of
mind failed her. and she stood directly
in the pathway of the advancing
drove. 4 thrilling tableau it must
have been. She clasped her hands, and
the light of the lamps showed her
dilated eyes and rigid figure. A dread
ful death seemed inevitable, when a
gentleman passing by, with a valise
in his hand, saw her Like a flash he
was by her side, and, swinging her
with a rapid motion to him, he carried
her to the sidewalk just as the thunder
ing mass passed by in the darkness.
The danger was over but she was
too unnerved TO continue her way.
He offered his arm, and together they
proceeded to her house. She thanked
her deliverer He presented his card
Mr.. Louis Shearer, West Point Miss
He had just arrived on the Chesapeake
and Ohio railroad, and was on his
way to the Southern train when the
vision met his eye Heasked her name.
Miss Alice Beauchamp, she answered.
Mr.. Shearer did not 90 on his South
ern trip that night nor the next; and
so-and so-well, the same old story.

Comment on Woman Suffrage.

From the Current
Senator Edmunds recently pointed
out the vast influence which woman
suffrage has at Utah in UNFOLDING and
strengthening the Mormon hierarchy,
and he has empathically expressed the
belief that in order TO undermine that
polygamous fabric-th established
Mormon Chmch-it will be necessary
to suspend such Suffrage. 1t is un-
doubleday true that woman suffrage is
the prop of the Utah hierarchy and it
is unfortunate for the champions of
that cause in the state that where the
experiment has found its absolutely
unobstructed field, women are com
pletely under the controle of few
hicrophants, whose leading principles
are abhorrent to right-thinking
Americans 1t is possibl to err in
drawing general conclusions from this
palpable fact but the temptation to
generalize is strong. nevertheless.

A WOMAN'S SECRET.
London World

Pretty Mrs. Valery was a merry,
light hearted little creature, and very
charming. This was nearly enough
TO make her detested of her soX; but
add to this q 1t her husband was de
voted to her, and that all the men OF
her acquaintance admired her, and
there is quite sufficient reason for the
enmity felt towards her by all women
less fascinating as they would
have said, less clever.
In truth, Mrs Falery was the most
innocent little woman in the world,
and it was very easy for her to walk
in che path of virtue as she had the
exceptional advantage of being in love
with her husband. But of course, her
female friends could not be expected
to believe that, though the men had
all found it out long ago, and admired
her all the more for it, She accepted
then admiration with an ease and
grace all her own; she had been a
great deal abroad, and possibly this
gave her manners brilliancy and gay
ETY.. Half her girlhood had been spent
with relations in St Petersburg, and
she spoke Russian as if she We're her
self Slav. From that gay city per
haps she had brought her love of so
cial life, and the vivacity which de
lighted her male friends All these
things were enough to make the ladies
of her acquaintance quite convinced
that she was improper, and only
needed to be found out
Lady Lynx lived just opposite Mrs.
Nalery in Winton Place. This was
one reason why she was tacitly elect
ed as detective-in-chie to spy upon
Mrs. Valery. But there was a much
stronger reason for the ladys willing
ness to fill that post, Her husband,
Sir George Lynx, was a confirmed
globe trotter, a lover of almost any
land but England and he seldom re
turned to the wife Of his bosom In
his absence men treated her with but
chilly politeness, though she painted
and powdered, and dressed to perfec
ton Yet Mrs. Nalery, though her
husband was "A stay home, had a
constant train of admirers Lady
Lynx was convinced that there was
more in this than met the eye; she de
voted herself to Mrs. Valery, became
her most intimate friend, and resoly-
ed that some day she would outwit
and expose her.
On a certain afternoon. when the
season was at lis height, Lady Lynx
came into Mrs Nalerys drawing
room.
"Sir George IS coming home to-
day, she SAID.
Mrs. Valery looked up with an air
of interest
Indeed, she said 81 shall be glad
