There is diversity of opinion rs to the

cial ingredients contained In tho ferti-
lizers detract from tho native sweetness
Of the fruit. They also claim that tho

What had done. or what had'st tn on.

That every hope that has been crossed
And every dream we thought was lost

Though here unciolthed and dumb;
But ON some brighter. better shore.
