Prof. J. H. Hale's Address to Our
Farmers.

Inc Kent County Farmers Institute
neld meeting in Odd Fellows Hall
Monday afternoon before an appreci.
alive audience. A. l.. Hudson was
elected chairman and Gilbert TAYLOR
secretary of the meeting. After some
preliminary work, J. II. Hale of South
glastonbury, Conn.,, . well known
peach grower, addressed the meeting
he took for his subject; THE business
end of Horticulture. From beginning
to end it was listened to with decided
interest.
The speaker did not 90 into a dis.
cussion of fruit culture as applied tn
our climate, but branched off into some
intelligent remarks as to how ripened
fruit should ne prepared for the mar
kets of our large cities. His discourse
may be divided into four distinct head.
lngsi the careful package of fruit; the
proper grading of varieties; the excell-
ent system of marking; and the time
and manner of shipping. A careful
attention to these thoughts would be
OF great advantage to the farmers and
would insure them reader sales and
better market prices. He then went
on to review very explicitly the value
OF such preparation. The idea of
dumping fruit into baskets in any kind
OF manner. the superior with the in
inferior fruit, and paying no attention
TO the grading was a great mistake and
rarely profted the grower.
he explained the marking system in
new light to our farmers, viz: by |
using colOred checks for different |
grades OF fruit, so when shipped to the |
markets. the best varieties could be at |
once distinguished from the inferior.
Inc time and manner of shipping de-
pended largely on the Judgment Of the
grower.
The meeting was a decided success.

when he said that there can be moth
Ing but gladn6ss for true organizer
OF industry like their chief. for PbiIa
delphia, as well as themselves is hen
ehtted by his success"
what Mr.. McCOrkell so forcefullv
says of Mr.. Wanamaker in PbiIadeI.
phla, Is equally and always true of
every true organizer of industry every.
where else. Very few men can mako
money solely by their own labor They
must make it through the labor If
others. In times of business denres-
sion, the man who has brains and
pluck enough to stem the adverse cur-
rent, by giving employment to the
greatest number of productive workers
and by an equitable division of the
fruits of labor, benefits others while he
enriches himself, demonstrates the ali
perVading doctrine of the survival of
lhe httest, which is potential in the
science of business as in the realms of
natural science.
Every community owes its pros
