One of the most common mistakes
is for one person to have too many
varieties. Because particular va
riety is a good one it is no reason why
you should have it. This is especially
true of varieties intended for drying.
Whatever variety you select for your
leading dryer, have nothing else to
conflict with it; have all you can
handle of that kind, with nothing else
to interfere, as it is much easier to
handle than to have so many different
kinds at once. If it is desirable to
have some other kind ripening at the
same time, let some one else specialize
that. Vary the varieties only for the
reason that the time of ripening va
ries. This lengthens the time of
marketing thus enabling the grower
to do a good deal more of the work
himself.
A good crop to raise between the
trees until they come into bearing is
strawberries. Check row them not
less than four feet apart, so. you can
easily get through with one horse
cultivator. From one-fifth of an acre
OF strawberries this year l raised one
ton tor which l got eight cents per
pound This year sold all my plums
and prunes green, only drying the
waste, that is fruit too ripe to ship.
This will likely be the case for some
years as the markets have been grow
ing faster than the orchards. But it is
wise plan to plant with q view to dry
ing, should the market for green fruit
break.
We can undoubtedly raise prune
here that will bring the highest price in
the markets of the world, and Thurs
ton county should have at least one
thousand tons of dried prunes to ex-
port. At the price l got this year
(nine cents) that would be 100000.
The best variety for drying is the
Italian" august 2lst to Septem-
Der 2d). The best selling varieties
green are first Gros. Prune," august
10th to September 1sD; "Coe's Golden
Drop" (September 1st to 1Oth);
Peach Plum" (July 10th to 20th); |;
Yellow Egg," august Goth to 2Sth).

and the time of ripening for this sea-
son which was little earlier than
usual. l have few Bartlett pears
which consider as profitable fruit
as can be raised here, but would not
advise raising in connection with
prunes for the reason that they ripen
at the same time. i believe in speciali-
zation in farming as in any thing else.
Let no one be afraid he will have too
many pears of that kind. In fact
there is not enough fruit raised here
now to talk about shipping East.
That means carload lots, and when
that time comes the pear raised here
will not have to take back seat for any
other pear in the world. 1t is the
best shipping fruit there is; for the
reason that it has to be picked hard
anyhow and it might as well ripen on
railroad as any where else.
If l were asked to name three
things in the way of fruits that in the
future will take the lead in our ex-
ports from here, should say. First,
italian Prune;" second, "Bartlet
pear" and third, Z" Royal Ann Cherry"

THE GOVERNORS FRIENDS.

The republican party is always great prohibitionists around To be sure it is not ordinarily very anxious to see prohibi- tion adopted, neither is it specially urgent for temperance reform that is likely to in terfere with it's own political strength or plans. But when it comes to talking tenn psrance, to preaching it in the party or gans, to claiming that the party is against the saloons and that the democracy is the rum party the republicans take the cake.
 frequently set up by the party organs here abouts to see what one thinks of Gov ernor Bulkeley and his friends in the last legislature who was a member of that body himself. In the Litchfeld Enquirer, whose editor was one of the most industri ous and observing members of the recent general assembly, we find a jeremiad against the republicans through whose connivance certain measures were defeated that had for their object more stringent regulation of the liquor traffic. The Enquirer finds that, in spite of an earnest, honest temperance committee and an honest majority in the house in favor of temperance legislation, the more important measures, such as the bill allowing women to vote on license, the bill limiting the number of saloons to one for every five hundred of the population, and the bill increasing the minimum fee for license to $500, were de- feated. Our esteemed contemporary then goes on to say "The treatment which the secret ballot bill and the various temper ance bills received at Hartford convinced us that the republican leaders-the men who shape the policy and receive the offices in the gift of the party-are gen erally hostile both to ballot reform and to temperance progress in this state. Some of our readers may remember the lively de- scription in Macaulay's second essay on Chatham of the way i'll which whig ad- ministrations found their measures slyly brought to naught by the kings friends, in the carly part of the reign of George III. All through the latter part ot our re cant session the governors friends brought about similar results in similar ways. It was they who emasculated the secret ballot bill. It was they who killed our best temperance bills, and we firmly believe that any important tempe rance legislation which may hereafter pass any Connecticut legislature will have to be carried through by an overwhelming pop ular pressure against the same treacher- ous opposition. :"
 Perhaps when the republican organs are enlarging on the temperance sentiment that animates the party of high moral ideas, when they are trying to pull the wool over the eyes of our prohibitionist
