that may be termed experimental

things are going on, the editor motto

and vegetables. Capt. Hanes says
that the packing house has d capac~

began business two years ago, by
putting up tomatoes Of his own rais~
ing. Last Spring he persuaded three
or four farmers to raise tomatoes for
hitn. He buys the tomatoes for
twenty cents a buahcl delivered at
the factory. One farmer who planted
tive acres, brought in nearly fifty
bush2la in less than two weeks, ard
expects to bring IN enough to-dGJ to
run it up to so.eoty five. From now
until Frost. with favorable seasons.
his two acres will yield at least
twenty-five bushels = week, It will
be seen from this,that there is money
in raising tomatoes, to say nothing
Of The profits OF canning. A large
business in putting mp fruits and
vegetables could be done if the com
pany had sufficient capital to handle
enough to keep the factory gong at

made if somebody With idle capital

was sitting IN my office one day
busily writing when IN walked a
strange gentleman. He seemed to be
almost covered with flowers. They
were in his hat, pinned on his coat,
and long wreaths were streaming
oyer his shoulders. | soon found by
talking with him that he was q harm
less lunatic who had an imaginary
lawsuit with some OF his relatives.
DO you love 0o~ers?' l asked.
"Oa, yes, love them; bat | am
now only fighting my auDts and
unclos with houQnets. You never
saw anybody DO that way before,
di1 you?' he replied, and I uncon,
scioualy answered mo" The gen
tlcmaH who sat beside me smiled
and the poor fellow went out, and
when he was gone it seemed to me
plaincr, and the thought came hack
to me again and again, I had never
seen people fighting with flowers. l
had seen selfshness spring up where
love should have grown, and quarrels
and disputes resulted, when if they
only had stopped to think they would
only perhaps have fought with flow
er5. l say answered him uncon~
sciously no, for did not then know
of any fighting with flowers.
And now while thinking again
over that idea it seems crazy to
sound mind Of this world. l cannot
think Of any that a:e fighting with
foweIs. | don't know why it is or
what it is that makes us SO, but we
hate too often, and never think in
our disputes ot love and each other
or of fighting witn MOWERS. | saw in
the courts that day the contest be-
tween those who should have been
friends, and as [ he I'D the bitter
words Of abuse and scandal between
lawyer and client and ch>nt and
lawyer as they Lurled them back,
0ard ond forward I wondered why
they d!d rot stop for moment and
see if This poor crazy fellows battles
were not kindest and best as he in
his oddity fought with his flowers.
Oh the hatred Of this world that
might be s1pp|antod with love aad
the number Of foes that should have
been friends. And the many quar-
rels and disputes Of this life that
come up before US every day, how

1t is rot disgractfIl TO make a

with reference to their mistakes is
sometimes disgraceful. One who

It is distressing to see SO many
young men All over the country who
have no fixed object in life. No
thought OF what they iatend TO make
of themselves. no idea Of what course
they expect to to pursue, no idea OF
trying 20 elevate themselves. Nov
ing along through life as though
they expect to live through countless
ages, and in no hurry to commence
life with q view OF success. With
no thought Of tue winters of oll age
when their strength and vjgor will
have left them as helpless as babes
Because yon are yoang it is no
reason why you should not begin to
show to the world what you intend
doing. Its true that you must have
experience ere yCu can launch with
safety out on the billows of life, but
ask yourself ale you dong anything
by which you can acquire experience.
Youth is the flower of life, and old
age is the ~ithered stalk hent low
by the weight Of years. Look on the
former, then On the latter, and what
60 you behold. First the picture OF
strength, the second disease and
death. Youth is power and
strength, old age is weakness ona
llssitude. " hjch Of the two is the
more fit to bear the burden of life?
Which has the strong arm and clear
intellect? Which rushes on with
speed and reaches the goal while
the other la9s behind? But would
it not te better to ask which is more
apt to make the rush? Why are
there so many old men who are pin
ing and regrcttins that they cannot
live their lives over again? Simply
because they are the victims of
misspent life, and are grieving over
the folly Of their youthful days.
Most young men think because
they cannot be put up as a ruler or
be made almost a potcntate, they
will not Oe anything. Such is the
folly Of being over ambitious with
no energy to sustain them
Such people rarely amount to much
owing greatly to the smallness of
their mental callbre. But to succeed
is to pitch your mark hlgh and then
aim little above it, then you will
be more apt to strike it. But how
few have any max at all, Simply
live today on what they expect to
get tomorrow, with no thought Of old
age and the bed Of aflljction. Some
say that they have no start in life
aud flag in the beginning. Don't
stop for that, stopping will not give
you q start bat pat vow further be,
hind. Il will cause people to lose
confidence in you, and you will be
numbered among the pullbacks to
progress. The eartn does not cease
to revolve on cloudy days, but rolls
On regardless Of the dark sh& lows
and gloom that Is thrown over It no
matter how dark the martie may be;
and ere long the shadows are dis
polIed and Sol bursts forth in ali pf
his splendor and glOrT. s. it IS
with you young men, you recessari~
ly have dark periods in the Journey
Of life to encounter. 50 then, you
cannot fail to see how important it
is for you to make au early start, so
that you will be prepared to over
ride the obstacles which yon Will be
sure to find.

AN Underground Canal aG EEiEes
ROH3.

"The strangest canal ia the
world" said an English clergyman
''ls one I never saw mentioned in
any book or newspaper. 1t is
canal 1G miles long, between WOrs-
ley and St. Helels, ia the North of
Of England, and is underground
from end to end. In Lancashire the
coal mines are very extensive, half
the country being Undermined, and
many years ego the Duke Of Bridge
waters managers thought they could
save money by transporting the coal
underground instead Of on the sur
face. So the canal was constructed,
the mines connected and drained at
the same time. Ordinary canal
boats are used but the power Is fur
nished By men. On the roof of the
tunnel arch are cross pieces, and
the men who do the work Of prOpul ,
7ion lie on their backs on taa coal ,
and push with their feet aGlinst TIE
cross bars on the roof. SIX or eth.
