Sweet and sonr AppIes.

Just why some should be sweet and some
sour is a puzzle. The malic acid which
gives it the sour taste seems to be in about
the same proportion in the unripe as in the
ripe apples; the difference in sweetness
seems to arise from the change of feeulent
or starchy matter into sugar as the ripen-
ing process proceeds. But, though the
chemist can tell us the exact elements
that go to make sugar, he cannot make
sugar for us. No power but that of the
living plant can do it, and we are absolute
ly in the dark as to how the plant gets it
done.
Possibly the climate has some influence
on the acting vital power, for the Rhode
Island Greening apple, a sour apple in the
Atlantic states, is sweet apple on the
Pacific-and the same apple will often have
part of the same fruit sweet on one side
and sour on the other. These cases are
generally attributed to some one in the
past having split branch through bud,
then fitting the sweet apple half to the half
of the sour apple bud, and grating the
spliced graft. This is regarded as an in
genious afterthought. Those who have
directly gone and repeated the experiment
have had no such result.-Thomas Meehan
in Philadelphia Ledger.

that reduction lad been made of 80 per

DEEP WATER HIS WORK.
DONG FRESHMAN LESTER TO GO TO

he Will Make 1t His Business to
Look After the Appropriation for
the Harbor Improvement at the
Coming Session-The Silver CUES
tion Another Matter in Which he
is Interested - His Choice for
Speaker.
Congressman Lester will 20 to Washing
ton to begin his congressional labors next
week The question which will interest him
most particularly the coming session will
be deep water for Savannah. He is going
to make strong fight for an appropriation,
and he thinks the chances Of success are
very bright.
The two most important questions which
will be before congress, said Con-
gresham Lester yesterday are the tariff
and coinage. He has no doubt about
tariff reform bill being passed by the House,
but doesn't care to predict its fate In the
Senate.
THE financial question" said he, cant
be kept off, however much such a course
might be desired. Something has to be done
about it, and believe the House and Senate
will pass a free coinage bill President
Harrison, Of course, will veto 1t. | don't
like to see the question brought up by con-
gress but don't think it can be avoided"
The session. Congressman Lester said,
will hardly be as lively as the last one
Nothing can ever equal that. Reed won't
be in the chair, but he is pretty sure to per-
form from the floor. The ex-speaker is a
smart fellow, said the congressman, aud
likes controversy.
The next presidential campaign, Con-
gresham Lester thinks, will depend largely
upon the work Of the approaching congress.
Cleveland seems TO have the inside track for
the nomination now, but Col. Lester is not
prepared 10 predict that he will keep It,
blaine will get the republican nominal
ton IL he wants it." he said.
Neither President Harrison nor any other
republican need ask for it if Blaine decides
to go in"
Col. Lester was asked about the speaker
ship. Crisp is his man and he believes he
viii be elected. He has read considerable
about Mills chances recently, but he WILL
not change his opinion concerning Crisp's
chances until a negative vote convinces him
otherwise.
