Fruit-growing as n Business.

Fruit-growing, as business, is espe.
cialsy adapted TO some regions, and to
some restricted localities. This truth,
in relation to certain kinds of fruits, is
well comprehendcd, but, regarding
others, less attention is given to it than
good Judgment demands. Outside of
certain well-dcliucd areas no one would
think Of planting peach orchards and
vineyards for profit; and more than this
within the past fifty years the adapta-
bility of certain localities for the profit
able production of these fruits has
greatly changed, in many cases the re-
suit, probably, of deforesting large
tracts OF country.
There is too much indiscriminate adj
vice given by the press in regard to fruit
raising. Again, tree dealers and nur-
sery agents, seeking a market for their
wares, circulate wild statements about
the profits of the industry, and at q
time like the present, when the prices
of grain are low, it is not difficult for
them to induce numerous persons in
almost every community, who have not
special fitness or experience for the
work, to undertake., at least in q small
way, luc pIuHtinS VI oIcHdiuS VI oinail
fruits. 1t requires no highly gifted
seer TO perceive that most of these
efforts will be abortive. The fact is, the
wrecks of ill-conceived fruit plantations
arc strewn over the whole country.
We have no desire to say word that
may discourage any one from engaging
in fruit culture who will attempt it in a
rational ard business-likc manner; but
wo would warn tho inexperienced TO
look on both sides of the subject, and
it has two sides, one of which is not the
rose-colorcd one that is usually painted
by newspaper writer's.
The fruit-grower needs to have n
courageous heart, and an Astounding
faith in his pursuit. He has numerous
enemies with which to contend and to
conquer; unfavorablo seasons are not
infrequent; numerous insects and para
site fungi are constantly disputing pos
session Of his plants, trees and fruit; q
general business depression, or an OK
ccssivc supply of fruit often deprives
him of all or nearly all profits. But
these difficulties are probably not
greater than those attending many
other pursuits. - Nick'S Magazine.

A CHASTITY Scarf-Pin.

A harmless yet CHASTITY scarf-pin is a
mechanical skull of enameled gold with
a movable under jaw, and diamonds
set back in its hollow sockets for eyes.
The skull is worked by q current Of
electricity generated by little battery
carried in the pocket, and transmitted
over wires no heavier than strands of
thread. Pressing upon button which
completes the electric circuit, the teeth
rattle. They are made in Paris and
are worth 500. The price is rather
steep, but the ornament has to be very
carefully and nicely adjusted, and it is
made of platinum and the best of gold;
besides. the diamonds alone are Of
some value. No cheap counterfeits
have yet been made. q ~

The Neps and Courier, of Charleston,
South Caroline, suggests that colored
company of militia from that city be
sent to Washington to take part in the
Inauguration ceremonies. This sugges-
ton is in line with the propositions that
the 'tenderfeet" and policy Democrats
have been urging since the election of
Mr.. Cleveland. and none of which
should be needed by the managers of
heparty 1t would just as proper and
consistent to ask Iowa TO send a com
pany of her most prominent Republic
cans to the capital to parade and shout
on the occasion of the Inauguration, as
to ask South Carolina negroes to do so.

insisted upon regiment of New York

play of themselves at his Inaugural
ton, or would he have gotten

together, band Of St. Johns enthuslas-
tic cold-waterites to dance attendance
upon him? Hardly And yet, such
would have been more consistent, and
equally as honorable on the part OF the
Republican managers. To bring com
PAW of negroes to the capital to assist
ii the inauguration ceremonies, would
simply mean a bid or bride to the
blacks; it would be sop thrown to the
colorel people, and as such would be
the trick OF the demagogue. The ne
groes worked and voted against Cleve-
land, and in so far as they are blindly
controlled by the Republicans are enc
mics to the Democracy, while the
Democracy has no love for them.
Hence, why should this false
show of respect or friendship
be nader Political battles that
are won by trickery and deceit are
never useful or lasting; on the con-
trary they are apt to prove injurious to
the yictors. Ii the negroes want to par
ticipate IN the inauguration ceremonies,
let them do so, as all citizens have the
right to do, andif they are in sympathy
with the political change that has come
to government, so much the better; but
it is hoped the Democrats will be above
practicing deception upon the poor
blacks for the sake of gaining few
ignorant voters whose votes are not
needed, and never will be needed by the
great party of the people.

INCAUTIoUs ZEAL

Wouldn't it be just as vel if the Fed
eral court officials who are displaying so
much zeal in the prosecution and per-
secution OF persons accused of prac-
ticing polygamy. were to restrain their
ardor for time, until they ascertain
whether or not their proceedings are
going to count2 "Be sure you are
right then go ahead" is as wise
and good an admonition to-day
as it was in the time of DaYy Crockett.
These earnest officials lack much of be-
ing sure they are right, and yet they go
ahead just if they were. Now it is quite
probable that they are wrong. and that
in thecourse of few months they will
be shown to be wrong, when their
present eager advance will be
turned into a disastrous retrograde
movement. Progress that is made
by irregular and improper means
is really an advance backward.
Suppose the United States Supreme
court should declare that Mormons
were entitled to the same rights and
privileges before the law that are con-
ceded to others, that the methods en-
ployed for trying Methodists and Bap-
lists must be observed in the trial of
Mormons and Catholics, that grand and
petit juries cannot be packed for the
purpose Of convicting Mormons any
more than they can be packed by Epis-'
copalians to convict Catholics, how
would our fervent court officials feel2
If the results of all this enthusiastic
labor. we're overturned and set aside, the
rebuke would be the more humiliating
as the incautious and irregular work
was greater.
There is a fair prospect that in the
course of a few brief months
the only tribunal whose decisions
are final, viii pass upon the legality of
the methods now being pursued by
local anti-Mormon enthusiasts, and it
might be as we'll to await the decision
before wading deeper into the mire,
should it prove to be mire into which
the officials are rushing. At least i;
would be as we'll to proceed only by
methods that are not questioned, until
those that are have been passed upon.
