There is a gentle

His reply was as follows: in answer to
your letter, the gist OF which is how to
get rich. would say that first OF all a
young man should choose that business
or avocation for which he has the most
decided preference and to which he be-
lieves himself best adapted.
"The Bible tells us that whatever our
hand finds to do we should do it with all
ourmight, but young men are not inclin-
ed to do in that way things that they do
not like, while whatever they do from
choice they generally do well. Many q
man fails in life simply because he has
chosen, or his relatives and friends have
chosen for him, some uncongenisl accu-
pations for which he is wholly untitled

career for which he is adapted he might
be not only happy and successful, but
even make his mark star Of the first

"When old Meyer Rothschild was
asked questions similar to those you have
propounded to me, he said: Il buys cheap

such securities, when gilt edge not only
pay interest on the investment, but they
can also be readily turned into money at
any time il desired"

New York World: The propagation Of
fruit by grating is very old custom,
having been known and practiced by the
Greeks and Romans, many Of whose
methods were quite as ingenious as some
Of those employed at the present time.
The benefits to be derived from the pro-
cess may be enumerated as follows:
l. The facility by which new and rare
varieties not easily raised from seeds or
cuttings may be propagated.
2. The short time required to fruit and
test new varieties.
8. The ease with which poor, worthless
trees can be made to produce choice
fruit in from two to four years.
A. The addition of hardness to delicate
varieties by grating on robust stock, thus
enabling them TO flourish in climates
naturally uusuited to them.
5. The Fastening the bearing OF seed
ling varieties by grating them on ma
ture tree.
The proper time for grating fruit trees
is in the spring, Is soon as the sap begins
tecirculate. This varies with the differ
emit varieties, the cherry and plum being
much earlier than tho apple and pear,

Japanese "Adv."

Another incontestable proof OF the rap d
advance of the Japanese in civilization Of
the west is the following advertisement
which appeared in Toxic paper recently
"a young lady wishes to get married.
She is very beautiful, has rosy face,
which is surrounded by dark, curly hair.
Her eyebrows show the form OF the hall
moon and her mouth is small an pretty.
She is also very rich, well read enough to
admire the flowers in the daytime at the
side OF a life companion, or at night tc

The time also varies with the season aud
climate. but is generally from February to
the end Of April in this latitude. Apples
can be grated at any time II the scions
are kept good. A mild temperature, with
occasional showers, 10 the most favorable
weather, as II prevents the drying up Of
the scion until sufficient union has taken
place between the woody parts to enable
them TO obtain nourishment from the sap
Of the tree.
Trees TO be grated should always be
thrifty and vigorous, and should have
been standing for some months. Al
though scions OF different kinds can be
made to grow upon many varieties Of
trees, the best results are obtained by
grating them on related species, as APP
pies on apples, peaches on peaches, etc.
March is the best time to cut scions,
the lower ends Of which should be buried
in the ground to the depth OF four or FIVE
inches and shielded from the sun until
wanted. Two-year old wood should never
be used for scions. The most thrifty
shoots OF the previous seasons growth
should always be selected. OF course,
scions must not be taken from sickly
tree, no matter how promising the shoots
may appear.
Scions should not be subdivided until
wanted for use, when two buds should be
left on. The secret Of success In setting
scions lies in getting the inner, or sap,
barks into connection, so that the sap OF
the stalk in ascending passes directly
into the scion, thus sustaining its life.
There are various methods Of accomplish
ing this result.

Poultry Notes.

Ducks and geese should he full-feath-
cred before killing.
See to it that there is sunshine in the
poultry house during the winter.
Eggs stored in damp place will often
taste musty even though the test be
clear.
In setting hens this month give each
hen fewer eggs to hatch than you would
give in summer.
A liberal use OF ground raw bone and
oyster shells will correct any tendency
towards soft shell eggs.
During the first two weeks chicks will
do well in room with no outside run,
but after that they should be given a
range or they will droop.
In Europe fowls with white, blue or
black legs are preferred, because the con-
trast makes the skin of the fowl appear
whittier than it does with the yellow-legged
birds.
The great secret in turkey raising is not
allowing them to get damp or chilled
while the dew is still on the grass, which
is apt to be fatal to them.
This spring a great Chicken show" is
to be held at Palermo, Italy, at which all
the best Italian fowls are to be exhibited,
and which, it is hoped, will result in the
improvement of the Italian breeds.
Ducks can be successfully raised with
no more than the necessary drinking
water. 1t will be found that the young
ducks raised in this way are much less
liable to disease than II permitted free
access to water.

Correspondence California Fruit Grose
sr: You have already received through
the general press dispatches probably
full accounts of the great freeze that
passed over the entire country east Of the
Rocky mountains.
The cold wave developed high up in
British America, and swept down over
the country, causing . temperature Of 80
degrees at Galveston, Tex, and 1t was s
degrees in Chicago at the same time.
This wave swept over the country east
wardly, doing untold damage to all the
fruit and early vegetable interests of all
territory south OF this latitude. About
st. Louis trees were 10 bloom and early
market gardens were well along with their
crops. In Central Illinois trees bad be-
gun to bloom, and the cherry, peach,
pear and plum crops were exposed to
temperature Of 20 degrees; in fact, the
line Of 20 degrees passed through Men,
phis and Nashville, Tenn. Your readers
will know what that will mean. As this
might be taken as practically the center
Of the north and south line OF the fruit
interests, you can form some estimate Of
the condition Of affairs.
A letter just received from A. T. HORNE,
Gadsden, Tenn, one of the veterans in
the fruit industry and a close observer,
says: 'Ttell you we feel blue; all the tree
fruit is gone except few apples. The
berries are all killed that were above
ground, for even IL the bloom was not
open they were frozen. think We can
safely say one-third Of the berry crop is
killed, and the crop was short enough at
best. Ice formed one-half to three-fourths
Of an inch thick"
II Is reasonable to suppose that as far
south rs vicksburg, Miss, there was a
freezing temperature, which would cut off
everything above ground, while at all
points north Of Memphis the freeze would
be even worse than at Gadsden. Press
dispatches say that the Georgia peach
crop is practically ruined and that the
eastern sections Of Delaware and Mary
land have suffered severely.
Garden truck at Charleston and Savan-
nah has suffered. The net result OF this

would be serious matter to sell at living
prices what fruit would be sent from the
west, but with the indications now we
are justified in the belief that the pros
poets Of the fruit growers OF California
Oregon, Washington and Idaho have
been very materially frightened. 1t Is
no satisfaction to record calamity, yet
II the calamity is here through no fault
Of any one we can control, We consider il
only just to mention it in this connection
