Profit in Small Fruits.

The business of raising small fruits
for the markets is increasing every
year, owing to the fact that better
transporting facilities are being OBJ
tanned. and also to the growing taste
for fresh fruit as an article of table
diet. Small fruits could only be raised
prottably within short distance Of
the large cities in former years, but
improved refrigerator cars, cold
storage houses, better methods OF pick
ing, packing and shipping, have con-
tributed toward making it possible to
cultivate the small fruits hundreds Of
miles from the great markets with fair
prospects of making money. Thousands
more of baskets of small fruits are
consumed to-day than ever before in
the history Of the country. and as the
importance of fruit as an article OF
diet is better appreciated this demand
will increase.

UNITY ENTERTAINMENT.
"a Scrap of Paper" the Basis ola Pleas
ant Evening


The members Of Unity have, on more
than one occasion, given public evidence Of
a very considerable amount of histrioniC
ability and 1t is therefore not strange that
a large audiences should have greeted their
appearance on the opera house stage Satur-
day evening. The play presented was j.
Palgrave Simpsons three-act comic drama
"A Scrap of Paper" and if one-half the
travelling theatrical companies were able TO
tread the boards as satisfactorily to the
audience as did those who took part in Sat
urday evenings entertainment, the theatre
going public would be better pleased than is
too often the ca g.
The cast OF characters and an outline OF
the play have already appeared in the FKEE
PRESS. The play was presented with n
caretuness and elaborateues, of detail in
stage settings which left nothing to be de
sired. There were no bitches in tie Per
formance and the intermissons We're all
short. Where dozen people all DO just
what their parts require it is perhaps uu-
necessary TO particularize; and yet, as car
rying the principal roles, special mention
may very properly be made of Mr. j. y.
Kingsland, Mr.. G. W. Lowrey, Mrs. W. j.
Henderson, Mrs. f. +. Burgess aud Mrs. c.

furnishing a good portion Of the limited
