"Ne Quote"

Another lie from Donnelly's paper,
but another good specimen of the
dict on which those who read such
works of fiction are obliged to sub
sist. 1t says that the East has been
living for years on the blood of the
West. and adds that capital now pro-
poses to take away even the right Of
suffrage. Then it prints this precious
bit of imagination, following the
words. "we quote:n
1.-The textile workers OF Massachu-
sets have been made an offer for re-
employment by the mill-owners. In
this offer is an iron-clad pledge that
deprives each and every voter of his
right of franchise for five years.
Plutocracy expects in five years to
have the toilers so firmly under their
control that further resistance to the
edicts of capital will be useless"
1--WE quote" That is u familiar
and cowardly way of introducing lie
too outrageous to be fathered, says
the st. Paul Pioneer Press. OF course
it is not said from what source the
quotation is taken. If the words ever
saw the light before, it was in some
publication as gladly and unctuously
mendacious as that from which we
have taken them. Now the first sug-
gestion that any one gets from them is
that there cannot be "a man so ignorant
as not to laugh at them. There ought
not to be a man who does not know
that such an agreement as is here
mentioned is impossible. That even
If any employer exists who would de-
sire to exact the condition, which is
itself contrary to reason, the contract
would be illegal and void and the per-
son trying to enforce it punishable at
law. The statutes of Massachusetts
are particularly severe on ofTenses
against the free exercise of the cleo
tive franchise. If an employer
were silly enough and wicked
enough to do what is credited to him
above he would only put himself
wholly in the power of his employee;
who would have to do no more than
go to the nearest authority and de-
nounce him whenever dissatisfied.
The invention, therefore, is prepos-
ferrous one. But think of the mental
and moral condition of the men who
are fed on this sort of stuff altoge Their,
in the papers that they read and the
speeches to which they listen! When
one remembers that, anger at popular
ignorance and fanaticism vanishes,
and pity takes its place. But what
place in the various circles of the
Inferno should be reserved for the
man found vile enough to prostitute
the great gift of the freedom of the
press to the circulation of broadsides
Of falsehood, in the hope of stirring
enough vile passion to clear his own
way to some coveted place of fat pick
ings and stealings?

Sending Fruit Long Distances.

Ventilation of packages in which fruit
is packed for shipping serves no pur.
pose except to allow the escape of sur
plus moisture. Otherwise the contact
with fresh air every moment hastens
it's decay all the more. The important
point in packing fruit is to see that il
is as dry on the outside as it can be
made. Then wrap each specimen in a
little cotton, which will serve both to
exclude air and to absorb any moist
ure that the fruit will naturally ex-
hale. This was the way that straw
berries were successfully shipped to
the Worlds Fair at Chicago last sum.
mer, says an exchange. When taken
out of the cotton each specimen was
as fresh as when put up and would
keep six to eight days. With large
fruit piece of lime put in the package
proves an excellent absorber of moist
ure, which is what is most likely to
cause decay.

FERTILIZER FOR APPLE TREEs-There
is no better fertilizer for an orchard
than unbleached wood ashes. for what
will encourage healthy growth of
wood will help the fruit. And as the
apple wood has in it's ash Il per cent
of lime, 4,112 of phosporic acid and Is
per cent of potash, these being all
contained in wood ashes it follows
that no better fertilizer can be pro.
cured. All the rest are supplied by
the atmosphere, and if the trees are
in vigorous condition the leaves will
collect all they require from that
source. The time to apply the ashes
is as early in the spring as possible.
If the ashes are not easily procured a
substitute may be made of 200 pounds
of superphosphate of lime and 100
pounds of sulphate of potash for an
acre. This will be best applied broad
cast, for the feeding roots of tree
are mostly under the smaller branches
and near the surface.

PROF. ALLEN MOORE: The farmer
must be SO educated that he can see a
grandeur in his vocation not surpassed
by any other business. He must live
above the drudgery of farm work, and
see that his calling possesses oppor-
tunities not surpassed by any other.
The hustle of the city does not disturb
his msditations while planting, culti-
waiting or gathering in. He can look
at the beautiful flowers at his feet and
there see the pencilings of the Creator
of the universe. Every leaf is book,
and even the stones beneath his feet
are Stumbling blocks for the ignorant,
but food for the wise" If he turns
his eyes upward and beholds the
candles of night glimmering in the
skies, that grandly true line will echo
through his soul, THE heavens de-
clare the glory of God and the firma-
ment showeth his handiwork." HUI
manity can not be encompassed with
grander teachers. No wonder that the
farm has produced the grandest men
the world has ever known. The farm
children must be educated to feel that
there is a grandeur and an honor in
farm life found nowhere else.

Old Fields with a Light Crop.

Fields that have been long time
moved as rule yield but light crop
of hay. There are too many such
acres on nearly all farms. They drag
the crop down to low average. In
view of these facts is it not good
time, while the matter is fresh in mind,
to consider whether a change in the
management of the grass fields can
not be made that will prove advan-
tageous to the ownersP Certain it is

1t is estimated that there are in the
United States some 100000 more or
less dependent upon wool-growing for
their means of living. Allowing five
persons for each farmer, this makes

affected by placing wool on the free

OMIXED FOREST GROWTH Mixed for
est growth is the rule in the world; in
the natural forest, there are usually
several species occupying the ground

cows producing calves instead of re-
naming barren.

DRY ridge soil with porous subsoil
is most favorable for cherry growing,
says Prof. j. l.. Budd. On such soil
the trees should be set four to six
inches deeper than they stood in the
nursery. BY deep setting, roots will
be thrown out from the scion or from
point above the bud, in two or three
years. Indeed, the Russian and north
German varieties often emit roots
from the first year after setting the
root-grafts in nursery. Another
benefit resulting from deep setting Is
protection of the tender roots we are
obliged to use in propagation.
