Only Pleasing to the Eve.
If those commenting ON the above en-
titled note sheet communication had said
as much in favor of using the shears on the
mule as they did on the orange tree and
had left the orange tree out, as they did
the mule, you would have not heard any
thing more from me on the subject. But
isn't it strange that men who know SO
much about nature-the nature of the
orange tree so well-should overlook the
fact, yes, the naked truth that whenever
they cut an orange tree, it matters not
whether with knife, shears or clippers, it's
vitality is weakened, because the susten-
ance that is being conveyed in the sap
and intended for other parts of the tree
are called into requisition and brought
forth by the suction or draught Of the at
mosphere to the wound for the purpose
of bridging over or healing it, thereby
causing the parts that this sustenance
was destined for, to suffer and, in many
instances, to die from starvation.
Remember that the orange tree is q
world within itself, and nature has allot-
ed to each root q certain and distinct
is a degree of hardness among men in
helping others, so there is reluctance in
one limb of the tree in furnishing vitality
for other limbs; each limb, to q certain
extent, is dependent On it's own CORE
spending root for sustenance.
Any experienced builder knows that it is
more than O. waste OF time to bud either
Just after pruning his tree, Or to prune
his tree Immediately after budding it.
Ask them why; and three-fOurths Of
them will give you woman's reason
''because" -because the bud will die. And
they are correct; the bud will die, unless
there is super abundance of sap attain
able. But why? Because the atmOs-
phere draws out the sap of the tree
through wounds made by the shears SO
quickly till it is almost impossible to get
a bud to live. For instance, take nur-
sery stock, say six feet high that is limbed
from the ground up.
Preparatory for budding, avoid prun-
ing if tits possible to do the work cleverly
without it, if not, begin one footfrom the
ground, cut off no more limbs than is absO-
luteIy necessary to make room to do the
work Cleft the tree just once, put the
sprig in and nine times out of ten it will
live, but why does it live where there
being limbs both below and above it
which are certainly entitled to thesusten-
ance which sustains the bud? Think
about it. Ask yourself why does a bud
ever live under such circumstances? Evil
dentlythere is an influence brought to bear
on thematter which the tree is inadequate
to combat against or~it would never di-
vide it's food with this interloper (Cho
bud) that has been thrust upon it.
This influence is embodied in the at
mosphere alone, it draws on the cleft
made for the bud, with such tremendous
force till the sap, which is laden with

League-Bowling and
Athletics.

The race for the championship of the
Jersey City Amateur Bowling League is
now exciting. Four Of the teams have
tied 10 games won. two of those who lead
have lost three and the other pair have
lost four. The Atlantis and Volunteers
are in the front rank aud the cham
pion Independents and the Pin
knights are yoked. only the
one pciut behind. The knights moved
up last night By defeating the Fair
mounts. The struggle is a. close as one
could wish and the club that succeeds in
winning the first nonors Will have almost
as many defeats as victories IL VIII,
from present indications, be won by a
small margin. There is no team in the
League that has not a chance Of going to
the front. the Centurys may brace up
and get there as. although at the extreme
left Of line. they are not hopelessiy be-
hind.

on the Pin Knights side. Faulkner led
the totals with Dol. Wensing, Duke,
Rudlich and O'Connell also did nicely.
The other four closed near the average
line.
The Pin Knights assumed the lead at
the start The Fairmounts rallied in the
second frame. The Pin Knights were
again In front in the third frame by
thirty and from that frame TO the end

SERIOUS ACCIDENT.-The Oregon
City Enterprise says; Mr.. w. p.
Austin, a well-known resident of
Molalla, met with an accident last
Saturday, which may prove fatal.
He had a two year old colt In the
pasture tied with a rope attached TO
a stick of wood so that he could be
caught easily. The colt became en-
tangled In some brush and Mr.. Aus
tin went out to loosen him. He had
no sooner unfastened the colt when
1t turned around and kicked him
with both feet, breaking his jaw, the
bridge of his nose and knocked his
teeth all out. He had partaken Of
no nutriment since Saturday except
a swallow of milk when he was
brought TO town yesterday. Sheriff
Samson and Recorder Whitlock
persuaded him TO drink some ice
water which seemed to revive him.
He was sent TO the Good Samaritan
hospital for treatment. Mr.. Austin
has farm on the Molalla, Il wife
and several children.

TEACHERS NORMAL.
Sixty-Five Teachers From Marion

The Teachers Normal institute,
now in session at the East Salem
school building, increases ia interest
as it growsin age. Sixty-five teach
ers are now registered, and several
more are expected to enter next
week.
The history lesson yesterday af-
ternoon, conducted by Prof. Whip
pie, was rather a discussion of the
principal historic facts of Adams
and Jefferson's administration. The
geography lesson was again con-
Quoted by Prof. Lewis and the equa-
tor and parallels of latitude were
the subject of discussion. Prof.
Lewis assuming the same bypothe-
sis that he did the previous day.
BY the time a score of teachers
have expressed their opinion on a
subject it is pretty thoroughly ex-
hausted and little left to be learned
ofthe particular part of the subject.
The younger teachers, or pupils at
the school, seem to have adopted
the old adage, "that more is to be
learned by listening than by talk
ing"
The following new teachers have
registered: Geo. A. Peebless, Mrs.

GUARDIAN APPoINTED.-A petit
tion was presented to County Judge
Waldo to-day and granted for the ap-
pointment of j. l.. Calvert, of Hub
bard, as guardian of the person and
estate Of II. f. James, wealthy
and respected citizen of the same
place, whose mind gives unmistak-
able evidence of failing. He
is well advanced in years
and his children, who are all
grown, feared he might squander his
means and took this apparently un-
aviodable step. Mr.. Calvert's bond
is in the sum of SIG, 900.

A SLANDERER REBUKED.-The
Oregon City Enterprise we'll says;
The Chehalis Nugget casts dirty
sling at the Willamette valley, when
1t says that the hop crop through
Western Oregon Is almost an entire
failure, through the ravages Of the
hop lice, which seem TO get into the
entire Willamette valley. He goes
on In this strain and says the wheat
crop Is failure aud that tons Of half
grown apples are rotting on the
ground. Never was a more fragrant
untruth uttered, as the residents OF
Oregon well know. But then the
Nugget is so unreliable, that its read.
ers cannot rely on It's statements
The wheat crop Of Oregon, while
the yield Is hardly as large as usual,
Is well filled and Of extraordinary
quality. The fruit prospects of the
Willamette valley were never bet.
Ter, aud the fruit is sound and
healthy, while no one la this eoun,
ny has ever heard Of hop lice N
this vicinity.

A FINE CoMPANY.-The enter
tainment at Reeds opera house last
night Yves exceedingly good. The
attendance was not near so large as
the character of the play and the
manner of its rendition demanded.
The piece presented was "Divorce," "
in which the opportunity occurs for
an impressive panorama of every
day life as too often observed, and
the mirror of many features of the
social system could not have been
held up more faithfully than it was
last night by Miss Essie Tittel, the
heroine, and Mr.. French, the dan
gerously infatuated husband. Miss
Tittel is born actress in scenes of
pathos and heart-feeling, her Ian
guage, movement ard gesture being
sweetly natural and graceful. But
indeed there was not poor caste in
the troupe-all were fine. The
overtures were pleasiDgly rendered
on the piano by the accomplished
and popular musician, Mr.. Hayes,
who has delighted Salemites on
many occasions in the past with
other troupes Another of the COM
pany-Mr, Bronson-has played
here before and is favorlte. To-
night, the grand spectacular drama,
The Sea of Ice" will be presented,
and will be we'll worthy Of a large
audience. The prices are low and
the entertainment of high order.

A DRUM CORPs.-There is now a
movement on foot which it is hoped
will result in the organization and
equipment of a drum corps in our
city. The G. A. r. and its auxiliary
societies are raising funds for the
purchase of instruments and uni
forms, and they have assurances that
the necessary artists can be enlisted
from among the families of the
fraternity. This will be no small ac-
QUESTION to our city's musical and
civic pre-eminence, and it's to be
hoped the citizens will respond
cheerfully in the way of financial
support. There is no good reason
why Salem should not have one of
the best corps on the coast.
