WHO OWNS THE FRUIT
A Bit Of Legal Learning From en-
Agricultural Review.

The Connecticut Farmer, which
ought to know, gives this point of law.
Trees ami their fruit belong to the
owner Of the land on which the trunks
stand. If q tree stands on the
dividing line, it is owned equally by
the adjoining proprietors. If q tree
stands near the dividing line SO that
it's branches extend over, the owner
has a right to 90 on to the adjoining
land to pick up the fruit; whoever
owns the trunk of the tree owns the
whole tree and all Of its fruit.
1t is very generally supposed that
the owner of the land has all the fruit
on tho branches that extend over it.
This seems more just, as the rOots
draw that amount OF nourishmcnt from
his soil, which with the shading make
that portion worthless. And what an
opportunity it offers IN unprincipled
fellow to injure his neighbor where the
dividing line is lengthy and the land is
valuable. BY putting up a hundred
apple trees, say, close to the line, he
might absorb the worth Of two acres
of his neighbors property and have
that much more of his own to cult
vate. And as to the right to intrude
on his neighbours premises to gather
the o%verhanging fruit, it seems very
unjust, and the law-if it reads that
way-ought to be modified.

A Philadelphia paper says: A COM
parison of the returns show that the
decline of the vote of this year in
Pennsylvania on the vote of 1884 is
274, 1874, takin no account of the nat
ural increase of voting population.
The Democratic share of this enormous
loss is Ill ,655, and the Republican
share of the loss is 149, 40 votes, the
rest being made up by the Green
hackers and Prohibitionists. Estimat-
ing by percentages, the Republicans
polled 6S.5 per cent. of their vote of
1884, and the Democrats Tie per cent.

apples are left on the ground to freeze

Schuyler Cole, Irving Griggs and Peleg Web

Knoll, saw u bear emerge from the laurel bushes
a few rods behind Cole and follow him. Cole
was not aware that a bear was making for him
until Griggs yelled from his elevated positions:
"Cole, turn around and put o bullet In that
bear before he steps on your heels"
Cole was startled at that warning, and as he
