pretend to do is chores and heave cosl
onto the fire. Here in the winter
months there is all kinds Of work 20 be
done, such rs wOOd-cu.tiDg, blowing
seeding tree planting, etc. In DakOi;
the winters are fierce aud endangeT
many lives, while here little more
clothing is worn than in summer. a
man working outside is apt TO get wet
and chilled but never freezes.
While the Dakota farmer has only
his grain crop to depend upon, this is g
better grain country, with no failure OF
crop. In addition it is a superb stock
country. There is no end to the
amount Of small fruit that can be raised
by family, and the orchard business
is proving q bonanza to many. Be
sides our prices on grsin and stock are
always q shade above those paid on tht
prsire states.

FRUIT Is DOING III.

A writer discussing the wonderful re-

and its causes, says:
"The question is, what Is doing It
From my observation Of the resources
Of this country should say that il is
the fruit business, which, taking one
year with another, pays the farmer
much better than anything else. And
II Oregon farmers are wise they will
pay more attention to raising fruit and
not give all their attention 10 wheat.
California stands at the head today 10
the fruit business ia the United States,
but In great many varieties Oregon
can aud does beat her. Among those
might mention 10 the apple, on which
even the CalifOrnians will admit that
Oregon leads them. Bartlett pears,
prunes, and am sure ON all kinds Of
berries; also the Royal Ann cherries.
On all Of these Oregon cannot be beat,
and the only reason why Oregon fruit
dealers and farmers are not making
more money on their fruit Is just be-

Much has been said Of the practice Of
buying and selling sermons, a practice.
by the way, Of no very special novelty.
Just before Toplady was about to be or
dained, Osborne, the bookseller, the
friend of johnson, offered to supply him
with a stock of original sound sermons
for a trife. II would sooner buy sec
ondhand Clothes" was the tart reply.
Don't be offended" said Osborne. II
have sold many to q bishop The price
of sermons. as of all else, has varied
with the times. In 1910 a bishop OF
LANDAU received from the churchwar-
dens of st. M~argaret's, Westminster, for
a sermon on the Annunciation, a pike,

Delaware will soon be without a state

origin in the adverse action OF the state
Legislature as to an appropriation needed
for the support of the national guard in

monwealth. As soon as the legislature
defeated the militia bill every officer
and enlisted man in the admirable and
well disciplined little force voted to dis
