THE COUNTRYs FRUIT CROP.

The Springfield Homestead has the
following summary of the fruit crop
this season: Apples will be scarcer
and more costly this season than for
many a year. There is but half a
crop of winter fruit in the famous
Annapolis valley of Nova Scotia and
a still greater reduction in the apple
belt of southern and western Ontario
and Michigan along the lakes. In
Maine and limited sections of Yer
mont and New Hampshire there is a
fair yield of apples, being best in
Maine Throughout southern New
England. New York, Pennsylvania
and New Jersey and the interior
states generally, the promise of Win
ter fruit is worse than ever before
known The apple belt of western
New York, along Lakes Ontario and
Erie. which in good seasons ships
more than ,OOO,O 900 barrels to New
York or foreign markets, has almost
no crop whatever this year. The
Homestead confirms this fact by the
testimony of over 800 correspOn-
dents, and believes that the great
majority of farmers in that region
will not have enough apples for
home consumption
Curiously enough, there is one CON
siderable area in Missouri and Kan
sas, within a radius of one hundred
miles of Kansas City. in which there
is phenomenal crop of winter APP
pies of fine quality. Eastern buyers
are already gobbling it up at good
prices. Summer and fall apples are
also short and command good prices.
Choice Western fruit like prime Bald
wins will rule at 81 to So per barrel
in Boston and New York within
three months; 81 has already been
bid for one lot in Addison county,
Vt, and the exports OF apples from
the United States and Canada of the
1890 crop will not be much over
10000 barrels, against 100000
barrels in SSS.
Peaches are Il practical failure in
southern Ontario and Michigan, as
well as III the Southern states and
Connecticut. Pears and plums yield
unevenly, but are far below an aver
age yield and must command good
prices. Grapes, however, are an i'm
menSe crop save in sections of New
rot is playing havoc with the fruit
The scarcity of other fruits will sus-
tain the market for grapes. The
shortage of large fruit is due to in
jury of the fruit buds by the cold
snaps following warm spells last
winter, and to cold wave and rain
that blasted the blossoms, while
drought i'll July caused much fruit to
drop.
The Homestead's preliminary re-
port of the potato crop indicates
disastrous shortage i'll the South and
West, a curtailed product in New
York, and a fair yield in New Eng
land if spared by the rot which is
now making its appearance. Pota-
toes in Ireland are sadly blighted,
and they are also rotting i'll
Scotland.

Life Insurance on
Business Principles

The management of the National Life In
surance Company of Vermont has attained
enviable distinction for its ingenuity in
origina ting plans of insurance This com
pany's policies have always appealed to
particularly we1-informed class of applicants.
In addition to the bonds which it disposes of
in large numbers, it issues an option policy
which undoubtedly is one of the most desi-
rable of insurance contracts. 1t is claimed
for it that it provides for any emergency that
may arise.
This is what the company contracts to do,
through the medium of this policy: 1t guar
antees annual cash value which after
certain period is in excess of all premiums
paid it guarantees n paid-up policy for such
a the cash value will purchase,
act amount being specified in the contract at
the time of issue, and it guarantees extended
insurance for the full amount of policy for
long a time the cash value will pay for.
Incidentally the policy will protect its holder
against adversely in business, and also make
absolute provision in case of death for
wife, children, parents or creditors. In these
days of low interest and unsafe Investment,
it is a safe and desirable investment, guaran-
teeing that certain amount of money will
be accumulated in specified time, which the
purchaser can use at any age when he is more
likely to be dependent upon others than
others upon him. Finally, the officers of the
National Life say that under this policy you
know exactly what you have and if you
need your money more than insurance you
get it. Under this policy you have in
vestment, protection, and the of your

fall, but q Stumble up Stairs.

Atthe vesper service Of the Young Mems
Christian Union last evening the Rev. A.
d. Mayo gave the first in his special
course Of five summer talks to young
people upon "Young Men and Women in
the City," taking for his special topic
''The New Version Of the Eden Story"
He said:
"An Indian chief from western New
York once went to Albany and expert
enced religion, and went back a full
blown missionary. His first sermon was
on the qualification, Of which he drew
such fearful picture that his congrega-
ton was quite demoralized by the shreks
and howls Of the women aud children.
Pausing in his tide Of eloquence, he called
ont: Stop short! This was a great
while ago, and great way of, and per-
haps II wasn't so.' The old versicn Of
the creation and fall of man seems TO
have shared a similar fate. The scien-
lists, the historians, the philosophers, and
finally the leading theologians Of all sects
have united in the opinion that perhaps
II wasn't so. A broader and more rational
Interpretation Of the legends, myths and
scriptures Of all the great religions has
brought out a new version Of this beauti-
ful and majestic old story. It is not diff
cult to unearth the bottom elements Of
this record, which were evidently over
laid by the author Of Genesis, and ex-
planned according to the prevalent idea Of
human nature.
Looked at in this way the original
record teaches that man and woman were
created equal, both in the image Of God
that the woman proved the better man
Of the two,' for she broke through the
barrier built by the superstition Of the
world around the tree Of the knowledge
Of good and evil. She believed that such
knowledge would make her and Adam
what they were created to be, like God,
in their knowledge Of right and wrong.
their freedom Of choice and their power
forever to elect the good. So Adam did
not fall in the old.time sense. He fell up
stairs and bruised his head On q step
above him, as q careless boy does going
up staircase two steps at a time. He
and his partner emerged from that little
Eden Of childish obedience into the great
world Of responsible moral manhood and
womanhoOd. Every boy is q new Adam,
and every girl new Eve. They are born
into this Eden Of childhood only in time
TO step forth into that new life Of moral
responsibility which Is the soul Of the
Christian ideal Of manhood. d."-BOston
