CAUSES Or FAILURE.
Why some Fruit Growers Never Make
Their business Pay.

lneir ltusihess ray.
Even presuming that the orchard has
been properly cultivated, pruned and
enriched, there are mauy who yet fail
TO handle the fruit to the best advan-
tage. In the first place, il is "A common
mistake to leave the fruits hanging too
long on the trees before picking, and
in consequence they become too ripe
TO keep well. and large proportion is
spoiled by falling to the ground. My
experience, says writer in New York
Farmer, has led me to begin gathering
much earlier than formerly, and indeed
before my neighbors begin TO think of
II. AT one time 1t was my rule TO
begin gathering them about the 9th
of October, but the high winds of that
month made such havoc with them that
| soon changed the rule. The Goth of
September is none too soon TO begin
with such kinds as have attained full
size and color, and if by that time all
the apples upon tree have not reached
maturity, it will pay to make two pick
ings, leaving the greener and smaller
ones TO grow and color up. Attention
to the details of preparing fruit for
market always returns a good profit,
and must not be grudged. Careful
handling and caref.' sorting are OF
paramount importance. Many throw
apples into the basket MS if they were
potatoes, OF squeeze them with thumb
and finger rs IL they were made of
stone, and SO leave marks which spoil
their beauty. Round swing handle
baskets attached with wire hook to
the rounds of the ladders are the best
for apple-picking. Most orchardists
empty their apples upon the ground.
but sorting in that case is back-break-
ing work, and every rain delays IL.
Some empty them in heaps upon the
barn floor, but in a large orchard this
means much labor in carting. My Gus.
tom has been to empty into barrels
in the orchard, head up without pres
sure, write the name of apple on the
end, and store under cover, and then
in packing empty them out on pack
ing-table for sorting. For young or.
chards and scattered varieties this Is
the best plan know of, for the inn
Dor tant work of packing can then be
done in clean, dry place without NOV.
ing about with nails and mallets and
press from one part of the orchard to
another.

size of the potatoes to be sorted out.
Narrow strips Of leather are fastened
crosswise of these wooden strips,
nailed at each intersection. To cover
the nail heads and thus prevent them
from bruising the potatoes narrow
strips of canvas are fastened to the tops
of the strips after the feathers are
nailed in place. AS shown in the cut,
bag may be hung at the bottom OF the
sorter to hold the potatoes as they
come down. The whole thing is well
explained in the picture. Really such
a machine should be called "sizer"
rather than IA sorter, for all it does is to
separate the small potatoes from the
larger ones. The wooden strips and
the leather make a series of holes
through which tubeTs of certain size
must fall, while larger ones roll over
This is all there is to n 'sizer." Why
should you wear out good flesh and
blood doing what wood and leather will

DO not draw water from the ice while
freezing unless water rises to top OF
can. The can should be only two-thirds
full of milk, ms 1t will raise one-third
while freezing. After the milk has
been placed into the can. put the freezer
together ready for operation, mash the
ice and sprinkle coarse salt on it until
II stops cracking. (The ice may be pre-
yiously prepared.) Then put the ice
around the can and add more salt.
When the freezing is completed, remove
the benters and cover the freezer with
carpet or wooden cloth. and let the ice
cream harden one-half hour before
serving. After frozen, beating the
cream with large spoon or wooden
paddle will improve it. After standing
several hours it should be beaten be-
fore serving. Dipping spoon in luke
warm water before serving each plate
of cream and turn once around. will cut

"TAMBOUR D'ARCOLA."
The Brave Drum mer or Napoleon's Army
In Italy.

The chief ancestral glory Of the fam
ily Of the Mazet is its close blood rcla-
tionshlp with the gallant Andre Etiennc,
that drummer of the Fifty-first dcmi-
brigade of the army of Italy who is
commemorated on the frieze OF tho
Pantheon, and who is known and hon
ored as the Tam bour d 'Arcola" all over
France. 1t was delightful to listen 10
old JAMS telling of the brave story; how
this Andre, their own kinsman, swan
the stream under the enemy's fire ut
Arcola with his drum on his back and
then drummed his fellow-soldiers on TO
victory; how Bonapartc awarded him
the drumsticks of honor, and later,
when the Legion of Honor was founded,
gave him the cross; how they carved
him in stone, drumming the charge. up
| there on the front of the Pantheon in
Paris itself; how Mistral, the great poet
of Provence, had made poem about
him that had been printed in book; i
and how, only two years age, they set
| up his marble statue in Cadenet, the
little town, not far from Avignon, where
he was born!
Old Jan was not content with merely
telling this story-like a true Provencal
he acted it; swinging suppositious
drum upon his beck, Jumping into an
imaginary river and swimming II with
his head in the air, swinging his drum
back into place again, and thcn--zou =

first dcmi-brigade with such a rousing
play OF drumsticks that protest we
| fairly heard the rattle OF them, along
with the spatter Of Austrian muskctry

that gallant pas dc charge!
1t set me all a-thrilling; and stili
more did il thrill those other listeners
who were OF the Arcola hcros very
blood and bone. They clapped their
hands and they shouted. They laughed
with delight And the fighting spirit
OF Gaul was SO stirred within them that
