The winter Apple Crop Is Short.

A large shortage in winter apples is
predicted by the New England Home
stead, on the basis of 1000 special re-
ports from the commercial orchard re-
eions of the United States and Canada.
A heavy crop Of fall apples is admitted.
Maine has an even poorer crop than last
year, and, while the production in the
other New England states and in New
York is considerably above the unprece-
dented shortage of 1890, the average of
the seven states Is only fifty-two COM
pared with thirty-eight last year, 100
representing full crop.

Uncle Jared Wharton, an eccentric char
acter of Forks township, died at the age OF
ninety-one years. He hated music, and he
staid in church only while the sermon
was being preached, because, he said, the
singing irritated him. Several years age
the congregation bought an organ, and af
ter that he never entered the church. The
old man had been toothless for forty odd
years, and whenever his friends urged him
to buy some artificial teeth for himself he
declared that the Lord would cause natural
teeth to grow in his mouth before he died.
In the summer time Uncle Jared went
about his place barefooted. When it rained
he visited the neighbors, and as he plodded
along the muddy road from house to house,
he had his trousers rolled to his knees aud
an old cotton umbrella over his head. He
seldom wore hat in hot weather, and his
white hair was strong and thick when he
died. Many years ago the old man made {
coffin for himself out Of 2-inch white oal
planks. The handles were made Of horse
shoes that had been worn by mare o
which he was very fond. The gentle beas
was killed by stroke of lightning, ant
che old man buried her under tree wher
she had fallen. He desired to have he
shoes buried with him, and SO he naile'
them to his heavy coffin.
A few months ago Mr.. Wharton line
nis coffin with fox skins, the sly animal
from which they came having been she
by himself He often expressed a wis
that bearskin robe belonging to hir
should be placed under his head in tn
rough oak box, and that his own sor
should act as bearers. Some OF the ol
mans relatives advised the sons to get
decent coffin. but their advice was nc
taken. Every wish Of the aged dead ma
was carried out to the letter, and on
beautiful afternoon last week the eccentr
nonogenarian was laid to rest in his oake
casket.-Scranton Republican.

With rather doubtful toes;
A little kilt, q little coat,

And lol before us stands in state
The futures coming man,
His eyes. perchance, will read the stars,
And search their unknown ways;
Percha zee the human heart and soul
Will open to their gaze;
Perchance their keen and flashing glance
Will be a nations light
Those eyes that now arc wistfnl pent
On some big fellows kite,
Those hands--those little busy hands
So sticky, small and brown
Those hands whose only mission seems
To pull all order down
who knows what hidden strength may pe
Hidden within their clasp,
Thong now tits but taffy stick
In sturdy hold they grasp.

Whose work is yet undonel
And blessings on those little feet
Whose race is yet unrnnl
And blessings on the little brain
That has not learned 10 plan
Wbate'er the future holds in store
