One great trouble with u people is
they do not pay enough attention to
the details of. gathering and packing
their fruits, and especially are they
negligent as to the time, often walt
ing until the fruit is ready for gath
ering before they begin to arrange
for it. 1t is all important that they
should have their packages ready
when the fruit comes to maturity
"Have you originated any new
varieties Of merit?"
"No, / have made no effort tp
originate any varieties, but have
introduced several. Among them
is the Lady Ingold peach, the finest
early July peach in cultivation. An4

GETTING RICH.

The farmer who starts out with
the idea of getting rich as his lead
ing purpose, his inspiration to labor,
makes a mistake and starts wrong
in the very beginning. He should
not covet wealth, he should not toll
to be rich, but to live comfortably,
Independently, happily, to add some
thing to his store every year, enough
to improve his lands, beautify his
home, make it more attractive to
wife and children, and educate those
children SO as to fit them for the
duties, struggles, and responsibilities
Of life. When the farmer does this
he does his full part, and all that he
ought to do. We don't say, "don't
try to make money" On the con-
trary, make all the money you can
by reasonable endeavor, because the
more money you have the better
you can command the comforts and
refnements of life; but don't worry
and fret, sweat and toll and make a
slave of yourself to hoard dollars
that you can't or won't enjoy, and
shorten life In pursuit of that which,
unless properly used, will give you
no pleasure but much trouble.
Numbers of dollars do not constitute
wealth, by a good deal. There are
men who own millions who are
poorer in truth than the men who
drive their coaches for them. for
their lives are a constant, worrying
trouble to prevent loss of what they
have or to still further increase the
useless millions they already own.
Their coachmen see more real pleas
ure and happiness. The farmer who
owes nobody anything, who has a
good farm, andish his own master, with
comfortable, attractive home, happy
wife and children, is a richer man
than any Of those poor slaves of
boarded, kanker-eating, life-destroy-
ing wealth. If there is a place in
this world where a man can be re-
ally happy, it is on the farm, if he
has a level head and his heart
beats right. But there is no happi-
ness in the rushing, life-wearing pur-
suit OF money, for moneys sake, on
the farm or anywhere else. The
farm is not the place for that kind
OF a chase any way. Let money be
a secondary, not a first consideration,
and then comfort; content and hap
piness will come and the chances for
money be, in the long run, about as
good.

FINE A

1t has been said that timothy grass
could not be successfully grown IN
the South. Two years ago II. u;
Irwin, Esq, of this city, sowed
broadcast over a four acre lot of oats
IN the city a quantity of timothy
grass seed and nothing more was
done until last spring, when he real
lied $4,000 from the sale of hay, be-
sides feeding his own stock. This
spring it is a sight to behold. IL
stands rank, four feet high and many
OF the heads r eight inches long.
Just think about it, hay commands
as high a price per pound as corn
