The Road to Prosperity.
ON the Manufactures Record.

From the Manufactured Record
The history OF the last fifty years OF
business in the United States teens
with the same lessons. There is no
royal road to prosperity. The
heights OF permanent success can
be attained only by steady climbing,
step by step, over toilsome and often
very rugged paths. There are very
few strong business concerns in this
country that began on q large scale.
Nearly all started with but little capi-
tai and worked their way to their
present dimensions and power by
thrift, industry and perseverance. In
the days OF their weakness the found
ers OF these houses were taught by ex-
perience how to overcome the difficult
ties they encountered. Even the few
enterprises that started in a large way
that have proved successful have been
founded and managed by men who
gained their wisdom and skill by long
service in building up similar und err
takings from very small beginnings.
AS a rule men Of this kind succeed in
what they undertake, because they
combine prudence with enterprise, and
never venture beyond their depth.

Dan Rice's Good Fortune.

Dan Rice, the veteran circus man,
who has had almost as many ups and
downs as he has thrown ilip-tlaps in
the ring, after becoming very poor,
has discovered that he is heir to 3OO,-
600 acres of land in Texas and Mexico.
This land was purchased over fifty
years ago for nominal sum by his
father. Dan Rice Nc c'Laren, a New .Jer-
sey lawyer. 1t is but recently that
Dan, in rummaging among his fathers
papers, found the documents disclosing
this fact. He interested some gentle
men of means in his case, went to
Texas and Mexico, and ascertained that
the title was perfect. No one will be-
grudge Dan Rice his good fortune. =.

Grating Trees.

~ 49, D44O IN 80 t"iiA lNoo dl
the best authorities on cnsilage.
Grating Trees.
statement was recently made in these
columns that the American Pathological
Society since its organization had ruled
out some six hundred varieties Of fruit as
being unworthy of place in the list of
fruits desirable for cultivation. The list
might be reduced still more, but the un-
profitable trees would still remain to bear
occasional crops of inferior fruit, unless
tree owners saw fit to abide by the
judgment of the fruit committee, and
improve their trees by rcgrafting to bet
ter v~arities. Time and money may be
wasted or toolishly spent ii grating old
trees. 1t is often better to cut down or
dig out and begin anew on fresh land
and with young trees of the most desir-
able sorts. But there are many young
healthy trees recently come into bearing
which are not true to the name given
them by the nurserymcn or their agents,
and which it may pay to graft over to
better v%arities. Any thrifty, vigorous
tree that is not too large will pay for
grating if the present variety is unwor-
thy of cultivation, and the tree is want
ed at all. Our advice is to dig out every
worthless old fruit tree on the
farm or in the garden, and convert
it into fire wood. If allowed to stand
it is sure to make a breeding
ground for injurious insects whose pro-
geny will prey upon the fruits of better
trees. In these days of harmful Insects,
never let a tree stand because it is not
thought worth cutting down. 1t is
worth destroying, if for no other object
than to check the increase of borers, cater
pillars and other creeping and flying
things. Having cleaned out everything
not worthy of keeping, then graft tho
inferior varieties to the best kinds
known.
Grating is a very simple operation for
any person with mechanical ingenuity
enough to white a cider tap that will
fill a smooth. round hole, or who can
sharpen a jack-knife to a good edge.
The tools needed are a fine saw, a strong
knife and hammer for splitting the stock,
a kccn-edgedknif for shaping the cions,
and some grating wax for covering the
cut surfaces to keep out air and water
till the parts have had time to unite and
heal over. For wax there is probably
nothing better than that recently recon-
mended by DR.. Shurtleff, the formula,
being 4 IL pounds white resin, one
pound pure beeswax and one pint linseed
oil, all to be melted together, and after
cooling in cold water, t. be worked to 8
