OLD APPLE TREES.
Planted Over q Century Ago nnd Still
Yielding Profitable Crops.

Yielding Profitable Crops.
1t is curious circumstance, writes O
M1ddletown IN. " correspondent of
the New York Times, that while tho
apple crop of Orange and Sullivan coun-
ties is otherwise almost total failure,
two trees which enjoy wide celebrity
on account OF their age and size and pc
cul1arities OF bearing, return, as usual,
a large yield of fruit. The two trees in
question are ancient landmarks of the
Mlnisink region, and are pronounced
great curios;ties by pom ologists. Both
are undoubtedly chance seedlings, dat
ing back more than century in age to
the advent of the first white settlers in
the region. Other striking peculiaritics
of these trees arc their unfailing pro-
ductiveness, and the fact that the fruit
produced by each differs from the other,
and is entirely unlike any varie"7 of ap-
pies grown anywhere in the Minisink
country.
What is known as the old 10 Gee ap-
pie tree stands on the 10 Geo hill, in
the town of Wawayanda, Orange Coun-
ty. The hill and the tree took their
name from an Indian of the Minsi or
Minisinls tribe, whose cabin stood near
by until period just before the revolu-
tionary war. The fruit of the tree has
wild and delicious flavor which has
won it great popularity, and pomologists
have introduced it by gratis and cuttings
into many of the leading orchards of the
country.
The other famous apple tree stands on
the bank of the Neversink river in the
town of Fallsburg, Sullivan County, and
is believed to be the biggesG Of its spe-
cies anywhere in the State. The
round and regularly tapering trunk
measures at foot from the ground ID
feet So inches in circumference, and at
seven feet from the ground II feet Z
inches in circumference. The topmost
branches are over ffty feet from the
root, and the spread of the head is in
full proportion to the enormous size Of
the trunk. 1t is positively stated that
the old giant has frequently borne forty
bushels OF apples as crop and has
mover been known to miss fair boar
ing. Tradition says that the tree was
found in thrifty bearing by tho Dutch
farmers from Esopus who planted tho
first settlements in the town in 1857.

An Unfortunate oversight.

The Kootenai Courier says that an
Idaho editor is in hiding While his fore
man is trying to arrange matters 80 that
he can come home without fear of being
pulverized. In describing the house
plants owned by the wife of a promi-
nent citizen he used the phrase: ''Mrs.
Blank has the prettiest plants in town." :"
but in making up the form the 81" in
plants dropped out and the paper was
printed and distributed before the error
was discovered. The editor saw tho
irate husband hustling along the street
witha huge blacksnake and at once
dropped from back window, whence
no took to the woods. The foreman
made beautiful apology the week fol-
lowing, but the editor is still at large.

Pussy Brings Luck to Sailor
men,

If there is anything in the popular
superstition among sailors that "a
cat brings good luck, I" the voyage OF
the British steamship ITALIA will be
a pleasant one. A fine large Maltese
cat went aboard the vessel the day
before she sailed and composedly
curled up on the heavily upholstered
crimson sofa in the officers saloon.
and when the vessel sailed she was q
contented passenger
aShe is an old traveller" said the.
steward, as he stroked her soft fur.
and this is not her first voyage.
Cats like change and they will visit
first one vessel and then another in
port until they find one that suits,
them; and they area knowing animal,
and seem to have some intuition.
when q vessel is going to sail. Do
1 think cat brings luck? Oh, yes.
It's good luck to have cat come to-.
you. Why, that's not a superstition.
OF sailors alone. Did you ever see q.
land lubber that didn't believe it?
That cat will have the best treatment
on board; besides, there's no end to,
the rats on board, and the cat Will
be useful as well as lucky to u.s., y
