of the report about the varieties to
plant. in full:
"That with the experience the COM
miltee have had in the growth and
culture Of peaches, and from careful
observation Of those orchards IN this
peach district that have returned the
greatest profit to their Owners,t the COM
mittee would unhesiiatingly recon-
mend that TO insure the most profit
out of peach orchard, the grower
must eonfine himself strictly to those
varieties that are tile most favOrably
known to the consumer and that have
proven themselves to he the hardest,
most regular and prOfuse bearers and
of excellent shipping qualities. We
do not consider anything earlier than
the Troths or later than the Shocks as
profitable.
We submit the following list TO be
selected from, or TO be planted in full, |
if the number of trees to be planted /
will justify. These varieties ripen in /
the order named in the list, aud will |
cover a period from six to eight weeks: |
WHITE-Troth' Early, Mountain |
Rose, Todd's Seeding, Old Nixon,

Late Red, Newington Free.
YELLOw-St.Jo Johns, Foster, Craw-
ford's Early, Reeves Favorite, Chris
Llama, CrawfOrd's Late, Magnum Boz
mum, Beers SmOck Geary's Holden.
The best time for setting trees is in
he fall, or as soon after the first heavy
'rOst as possible. Members should be
careful to select only from such nur-
cries as are proven TO be reliable and
hat are not located within or contig-

Peaches are very scarce, and in fact
peach culture is being abandoned in
the neighborhood Of Port Penn. No
young orchards are set out. and the old
trees producing premature fruit will
soon be rooted out. The culture OF
this fruit proves in many instances a
costly speculation, and farmers have
given it up in disgust This part of
the country is no longer peach CEN
tire as in former years, and only few
farmers have them even for family use.
-MiddletOwn Transcript.
Henderson, Md, suffered a heavy
loss Oh Tuesday morning, September
18th, by the burning of the large fruit
evaporator owned by H. II. Clark.
The fire occurred at l O'Clock and was
caused by the furnace door being left
open. The stables belonging to the
property were also burned The loss
is 81 500 on fruit and 81 500 ON prop
erty, with no insurance. Forty hands !
are thrown out of work, fortunately |
late in the season.
Edward Russell, young man em-
ployed in the Brandywine granite
quarries, is slowly recovering from the
bite of an immense eOpperhead snake.
The serpent struck him on the right
forefinger With his left hand Rus
sell caught the snake by the neck and
pinched aud squeezed it until it
dropped its grasp to make another
strike. Russell then laid il on a stone
and with sharp-edged tool, cut 1t in
twain. When severed, the head re-
coiIed and sprang about ten feet. BY
the time Russell reached a drug store,
some distance away, his hand and the
arm to the elbow had swollen into an
unshapely mass. The most excruci-
ating agony came from the bite, end
the victim was strapped in bed, where
he lay unconscious for ten hours. The
wound was cautelized, and the half of !
a chicken still warm with animal heat /
was applied TO the wound. The rem !
edy aud the free use of whiskey are
believed to have saved Russel's life.

SERMON NOTES. Rev. Mr.. Githers
of San Francisco, Cal, preached in
Christ Church last Sunday, taking for
his text the 1st verse Of the 5th chap
ter of the 2nd eplstle to the Cor, 1--WE
have a building of God, a house not
made with hands, eternal in the heav-
ems"
He said none knew what the future
life would be, except that we had a
building eternal In the heavens. The
belief in the immortality of the soul
came down to us from the earliest ages.
So fur as this world is concerned, death
is the end. But the hope of another
life had comforted Eve when she knelt
beside her murdered son, and the
thought that "he is not dead but sleep
ing,n cheers many a mother now as
she lays her darlings In The dust. Is
there not an instructive feeling that
we have something to hope for beyond
this life,a house not made with hands
eternal in the heavens. Were this
world stripped Of its millions at once,
what a catastrophe 1t would be,and yet
one hundred and fifty times since the
creation the generations have faded
from the earth, where we know not.
But we know that it has not entered
into the heart of man to conceive the
things that God has prepared for those
that love him. These bodies die, but
in their place we receive resurrection
body more glorious. look out upon
your little cemetery, GOODS Acre"
what would be the grief of those who
have loYed one there, were it not for
the hope of resurrection, were it not
that we have a house, eternal in the
heavens. Time spent on earth is
wasted unless used to prepare for the
life to come, unless so spent as to bring
