Wood Co. horticultural seclcty.

The above Society met Al tho residence
Of the president, James Dunipace, near
Perrysburg, Sept. l4t. Qnite number Of
fruit men were present. The display OF
fruits were fine, MIR. Dunipnce showing
over 20 varieties OF apples labelled and
quite q number Of Russian varieties mol
named that he had obtained from the De-
pariment at Washington, Also II vnrie-
ties OF grapes, 81 Of pears and ID OF peaches
The hail storm that passed through the
North part of the county in Junc, injured
the fruit so that the apples and pears were
not perfect and the grapes that were hit
dried up leaving the hunchcs loose,
Mr.. D's display afforded good oppor
tunly to compare the different varieties.
His little boy, aboot ten years old, 1 should
judge, also had made collection OF fruit
thus showing tendency 70 horticulture.
Mr. w. G. Harris exhibited 10 kinds o
grapes, s Of pears, lIyslip crabs and nice
specimen of bearing cane of the Lnwttr
blackberry. Mr.. HIS grapes were yer,
nice. When asked what he would plant il
pears for profit, he said Clapp's Favorite
for early, Sheldon for late fall, and Law
renee for winter.
Mr.. Warner had some very fine sreci-
mems OF Flemish Beauty, Lawrence, 0non-
daga and Sickle, also some peaches, crab
and apples. Mr.. Warner would plan,
Clapp's Favorite and some Bartlett, be-
cause some people will have them, for ear
ly, and Lawrence for late,
Meeting was not called to order until at.
ter dinner, when Mr.. Harris gave instruc-
tions in starting cuttings and grating o.
grapes.
Rev. Adams seemed TO entertain doubts
about The gratis growing. Mr.. Harris also
gave his method of trimming which differ
ed from the usual way somewhat, No rule
can be given as to how many pounds q
vine shall bear. Mr.. Dunipace has n vine
that has yielded 1000 pounds. The first
Concord vine brought to this county and
planted on the south side of Mr.. Pernot's
house has yielded over 90 bushels in one
season of large choice fruit.
Mr.. Warner, "What grape can we gel
that is hardy will bear well and not rot
the Concord has failed us; the Empire
State is favorably spoken OF ?"
Mr.. Dunipace, in reply, said all OF Rog-
er's Seedlings were good keepers.
Mr.. Warner, on call of Presi dent, said
about pears: Soil should be well drained
Am inclined to plaut late varieties, as they
come into market when fruit is scarce aud
command good prices. Pick up and de
stroy all that fall, and thus destroy the in

The Evils OF Poker Playing.

lCincllnati Enqulrer'l
Poker-playing is more than doing ils
share in leading the majority OF our young
men 10 ruin and shame. A man may stop
drinking, stop smoking, stop chasing after
frail women but If he has once got in the
habit of playing poker he will find II rather
uphill work to check himself. 1t is a
terrible disease, TO say the least. and once
rooted in mans makeup all the doctors
in the land can not save him. Very few
knows 10 what a great extent poker-play-
ing is being carried on, not only III Thu
city, but in every city and town In this
country. There is hardly saloon any
where but what has its back room, where n
private game of poker is being played
during The afternoons and evenings. And
no matter how private and respectable the
parties who indulge In the game may be-
the card sharp somehow or other always
manages to be on hand and get his work
in. Between the caTd-sharp ard the kitty

man who plays poker regular once a week

the year that heis winner, aud the chan.
ces are nine to one that he Is big loser.
Il uonld be all right il only men Of means
INDUCED in poker. bnt mnneyel men sell
dom monkey with the game. They are al
together TOO sharp for HAT. The chances
are against them, and they have just TOO
nlmcl, business tact TO run amy risk. A

Of the seductive game. Once fairly start

is no let mp. Not only will he play IN oil
of his honest earnings, hut he viii borrow
from who he can, aud In the end wind up

more than one young man, and will be oi
good many more while poker continues

Saturday Night.


Once again has a drop from Times
bucket lallen into the depth OF Eternity
we'll. Saturday night has come and gone
again! One,week less of sin, sorrow and
for that which is OF little good-one week
nearer the final adieu TO friends left TO
mourn--one week nearer solving the great
mystery whose wonderful depths have
such charms TO those whose hearts are in
the right place. How many changes since
last Saturday night. How many new
love has been born-how many and old
love strengthened-how many heart Lost
how many truth uttered which ia not
believed-how many a falsehood sci ahoal
which passes current as gold-how many a
heart has been made glad-how many a
soul has gone deep into the waters of Bit
terness-how many an old picture of The
past has been brought TO memory-how
many a negative taken for future use-how
many home made sad, desolate and dark
since last week has strung on the string of
times pearls. God he pral-ed for Saturday
night, when poor man can have an hour
tor rest with his family. Blessed night,
when one can sit and criiicise The work OF
the week--can ace how little OF evil and
how much OF good he das done. Who of
us has laid stepping stone on the brook
we have just passed over for the foo, Of
another? Who Of us has done even one
a little act of kindness? How many OF us
have neglected to thus mellow the earth
which packs so snugly around the sides and
over the top of the NARROW HOME !?
Too many-alas, too many OF us have
iorgOtten-in the selfisl,ne-s OF the
heart, have forgO' ten that others have
hearts and that our words reach
farther than we think. How few Of us he
gan the week with even one good intention !!
How lew OF us have kept those we had.
How Oft have We ell poisoned our tongues
with falsehoods against our neighbors, or
believed that we knew TO be false simply
because il was told ns. Saturday night
While i's dying hours give reat To the
body. lei the dawning OF lis child's birth
give new light TO our hearts and fill them
with more perfect love tor those who are

right tor n week-if we have not, lei III all

Law is ssid to be n rule OF action pre-
scribed by a superior power to an inferior,
We have n law on the statutes Of the United
States fcrbiddlng the importation of con-
tract labor. Yet we hear this sysem ci
importation Is being carried on with i'm.
punity by corporations and syndicates.
Our State capitol syndicate has imported
from Scotland some eighty stone-cuttcrs
who are engaged in the qnaries at Burnet.
From newspaper reports we sec that simi.
l,r importations have been made and are
being worked in various mining and manu-
featuring centers. A lair look at the mat
ter will lead one 10 the belief that COZ pora-
tions and moneyed syndicates are superior
to the law making power Of the land or
that we have officials who will not enforce
that which curtails the power Of capital. A
further review of the situation cannot but
lead us to see the necessity OF n new deal
all round.-E1changc.

Our Oil Resources,

In his theory OF the oil resources of
Northwestern Ohio, Professor Orlon gives
the following:
"llre productive territory lies in spots,
and the different ceners cannot be con-
nectcd by any lines or belts that II s at all
worth while to draw. Any two places
can bo joined on the map by straight
line, II is true, but not line can be drawn
between the productive districts at present
known, which is not broken by failures
where drilling has been attempted, and no
line has yet been found that would lead
| the driller 10 fortune. The northwest and
southwest line derived from Pennsylvania
experience IL, perhaps the favorite dlrec-
tion IN the new field also. Lima lies to
the southwest Of Findlay; so far, so good,
but in the same line lies Fostoria with two
dry holes, Fremont, without n single we'll
in the Trsnton that deserves mention, out
of totn! of eight wells. Between Lima
and Findlay wells have been drilled at four
points, viz Beaver Dam, BlufTion, Mt.
WY "hN As'nNOhs Ni'h MI hit luiluIts' ~
the southwest of Lima is Ceiina, where the
| Trenton ia reported unproduclive. Out Of
total OF nine locations on this line two
| are productive. Anot her line on which
great expectations have been built, Is the
north and south line connecting Findlay
and Bowling Green, but the line is broken
in The middle and AT both ends, Between
Bowling Green and Findlay, the North
! Baltimore we'll has showed reproductive
ground, at least in the first well. North OF
| Bowling Green are the three unproductive
| wells of Toledo. South OF Findlay, Ar
ington, Kenton, Belle Center. Urbana and
Springfield have made AN unava,ling
search for gas or oil in the Trenton, In
this case, two localities out of the nine in
the line have proved successful. Such
lines, or belts, II is obvious, are worse than
none. The Canadian OIL field is frequent
y included in the same belt with Lima
and Findlay, but the Canadian oil is de
rived from rock that is not present at
either of the last named places. Its place
in the Fiudlay scale would be 800 or 400
feet in the air. The corniferous limestone
in the Canadian oil rock, and the Trenton
is never approached within thousand feet
in this field and, moreover, there IL a
good reason to believe that the Trenton
arch in Ohio was formed ages before the
Canadian oil rock was deposited"

That man Parsons wants TO be known
for his much speaking. He cannot be
slill even in prison. But lie will hardly
convince any one That his philosophy,
whatever il is, is better than that which Is

Powderly il in sympathy with his wild no.
tions about "PocIal revolt" Sill less will
lie be able TO satisfy the public that he
himself is not in full accord with any
fort OF violence which the social revolt, lie
speaks of may Use. His own language be-
trays him. He has not advocated revolu-

The true explanation of the popular
iukewarmness regarding tho proposed
Grant monument is to be found in the fact
that public opinion throughout the country
condemns the choice that has been made of
ate for the monument. The nation does
not want monument at New York, and
the nation will not contribute TO one.
Every consideration of fitness demands
that General Grant shall be commemorated
