have 1 seen beds in early June languish'
ing for moisture, the fruit trusses lying
on the ground, fainting under the bur-
den, and the berries ripening premature>
ly into little more than diminutive COLI
lections of seeds! When ground has
been deepened as have said,t drought
must be almost unparalleled to resist
the development of the fruit. Even in
the most favorable seasons, hard, shall
low soils give but a brief period of
strawberries; the fruitripens all at once,
and although the first berries may be of
good size, the later ones dwindle until
they are scarcely larger than peas. Be
sure to have deep, mellow soil beneath
the plants.-E. P. Roe, in Harper's Mag

SOMEBODY has unearthed an autograph
letter of Abraham Linceln and sent a
copy of it to the New York Times. There
is great deal of Lincolnian philosophy
in it:
Do not worry.
Eat three square meals day.
Say your prayers.
Think of your wife.
Be courteous to your creditors.
Keep your digestion good.
Stear clear of the biliousness.
Exercise.
Go slow and go easy.
Maybe there are other things that
your special case requires to make you
happy. but, my friend, these, 1 reckon
will give you good lift.
A. LINCOLN.
