an orator. The campaign was quite a
strain on his health and soon afterwards
he was unable to attend to business.

Old Line Farming.

For many years it was the boast and
honor of the farmer that he was 'the
most independent of men," He was de-
pendent on no market, no financial or
political condition, the prosperity of no
one else, for his living. A good corn
field kept up his horses and COWS and
pigs, peas good enough for himself and
his stock grew between the long rows and
twined about the stalks, garden basked
and grew fat in the sun, chickens and
other fowls wereplentiful, while the afore-
said COWS and pigs did not neglect to con-
tribute more to the family living than
lived at home and was quiet, prosper
Gus, happy man, with every right to the
boast of independence. He didn't see
many dollars in the course of the year
neither did he need many. 1t is simple
picture-this of the ''Old Line farmer"
but to us a pleasing one always, be it
never so rudely drawn. Alack-a-day,
that his tribe should not have increased
The corn field got smaller Che took to ex-
elusive cotton raising or orange growing),
the stock got poorer, the garden full of
weeds, and the farmer himself a man of
sorrows as thoroughly acquainted with
disappointments and failures and unpaid
bills, as he is with the discOuraging mar
ket reports and law of mortgages and
foreclosures.
A farmers first plan and endeavor
should be the making of his living. If,
besides this, he is able to put on the mar
ket a hundred bales of cotton or thou
sand boxes of oranges, he has done well;
but to give attention wholly to the Or
ange (Which freeze or a storm might
hurt) or to the cotton (Which drouth or
rust or something else might Destroy is
to run a risk which no enormity or bril-
liancy of inviting "odds" can make rea,
sonable.
Ii we were allowed the privilege of
preaching, we might continue this article,
following the idea the Scripture advances
about the haste for riches" To this
idea we have already come. We suggest
respectfully that our farmer-friends pom
der it, and also that a sure living every
year is infinitely better than checks which
may or may not materialize. Old Line
farming is best.-Leesburg Commercial.

Lemon Curing in Sicily.

Italy, the following letter containing
some information about lemon culture
and curing as preached in Sicily has been
received from Mr.. Hugh Marshall from
Mr.. t. Skinner large citrus fruit grow
er of Gazzi, Messina, Sicily. 1t will be
observed that there is nothing secret
about the process used, the principal
points being to pluck for size, and the
extremely careful manner of handling the
fruit The simplicity of the whole mat
ter seems full of encouragement to intend
ing lemon growers here:
can give you the information that
you require concerning the cultivation
and preservation of oranges and lemons
as practiced here in Sicily.
CULTIVATION
Both kind of trees to be carefully man
ured in the spring, that is, not later than
the month OF April, then during the
month OF May, June, July and August,
each tree to be irrigated, once in every
ten or twelve days, according to the
nature of the soil, that is, should the soil
be sandy Or a porous nature, it will be
best to irrigate every ten days, but should
the soil be OF a clayey or compact nature,
then irrigation to be repeated once in
twelve days would be sufficient. No irri-
cation or cultivation is required on and
after September, till the following spring,
as autumn irrigation causes the rine of
the fruit to become soft and fabby, and
is great detriment in preserving the fruit
for long time.
RIGHT TINE TO GATHER LEMONS.
All the lemons towards theend of Octo-
Der from 2A to inches in diameter
should be gathered, though they may be
as green as the leaves themselves. Great
care must be exercised in gathering, Tor
rather cutting off the fruit) as it is pre-
ferable either with a good cutting knife
or sharp pair of scissors to sever the
fruit from the stem, leaving from one
sixteenth TO one-third of the stem at
CctCuOO w CLO uIG. ClHO
be exercised in handling the fruit after it
has been gathered, and placed carefully
in CANVASS lined baskets so as not to
damage or indent the rind or peel, other
wise the fruit won't keep. Great care is
also needful not to make the least incision
in the peel with the finger nails, or with
anything of similar nature, otherwise
the fruit will spoil.
After the fruit has been carefully gath
cred, as above described, wrap in thin dry
paper, and lay carefully in boxes orgood
baskets in layers one upon another, and
this way the fruit will keep in splendid
condition even for eighteen months.
Lemons are generally gathered (ac-
cording to size) once every month, dur
ing the following four months: The first
gathering in October; the second in
November; the third in December and
the fourth in January ard sometimes q
fifth in February, but the gatherings
depend so much on the three following
factors: Sheltered or unsheltered posi-
ton OF the garden; the richness of the
soil and the size of the fruit. By pluck
ing the large fruit first, those next in size
will come forward and grow rapidly and

ORANGES.

Everything connected with the cultiva-
ton and irrigation of oranges is precisely
the same as that for lemons, but two
gatherings are amply sufficient, and the
first gathering not to commence till after
February, and the fruit must be quite
yellow and consequently ripe. The same
great care in gathering, not to damage
the peel and the carefully taking them
