The Coming Fruit Crop.

The present spring has 70 far
brought an unusually small number
of frosts likely to be injurious to the
fruit crops on the Atlantic seaboard.
The seyerest of them occurred be-
fore the warm weather came and q
decided impulse has been given to
vegetation. This fact is interesting
as confirming the theory that spring
frosts are few when at the opening OF
the vernal season the snowfall re-
naming on the soil is scanty, as was
the case this year in the Atlantic
States. The period for the occur.
renee of frosts has not passed, and
the fruit may yet suffer in some de-
gree. But the probabilities are that,
except in New England and the
northern parts of New York and
Pennsylvania, the peach and other
fruit crops will escape serious inju.
ry. Unless the character Of the
spring should suddenly change very
much for the worse We may expect
an early and an abundant fruit and
vegetable crop east of the Alleghs'
nies.-N. Y. Herald.

HoNEsDALE, Pa, May 6.-The
last mercbantable tree in the vast
hemlock forests that have supplied
the mills on the Dyberry Greek, one
of the tributaries of the Laxawaxen
River, for more than a quarter OF a
century, has been cut, and on Sat
urday the veteran river pilot, BILL
Kimble, drove the last log down the
stresm that will ever be run to the
mills. He also drove the first log
that was cut in the great forest, in
1860, and has never missed a days
log driving on the creek in all the
intervening time. This tract of
hemlock was nearly the last of any
extent in Wayne county, whose for
ests ten years ago were yielding 1OO,-
100000 feet OF that lumber a year.
Fifteen years ago more leather was
tanned in Wayne county than in
any other county in the Union. The
disappearance Of the hemlock has
caused all but two or three of the
~tanneries to be abandoned. all who
we're engaged in the business made
large fortunes, and nearly all OF
them are now engaged in the same
business in Elk. Forest, Warren and
other western counties, where the
greatest hemlock forest in the world
still! densely cover the hills.
The tanning industry of those
counties now supplies almost the
entire sole-leather product of the
world. The cutting away OF the
hemlock woods in Wayne county
mas had a disastrous effect on the
water courses, many large streams
having become almost entirely dry
within the past decade.

We should have better preaching
if the preachers were all sound and
healthy men. Calvin may have had
the dyspepsia, but it did him nc
good as IA lheologian. A Methodist
Minister, of Hartford, Conn, writes
that DIR. Kennedy's" Favorite Reia-
edyn cured him of chronic liver dis
ease and Indigestion. His brethren
of all denominations are respectful
ly invited to note the fact. Sick
preachers are in poor condition to
proclaim the gospel news. Sound
bodies are wanted.
