at Amsterdam, and IN a few years seeds

America, " here the cultivation OF coffee
has steadily Increased, extending to the
West Indies, until now the offspring OF
this one plant produce more coffee than
ls obtained from all the other plants in
the world.
The plant is an evergreen, and is from
six to twelve feet high, the stem being
from ten to fifteen inches in diameter.
The lower branches bend down when the
tree begins to grow old and extend them
selves into a round form somewhat like
an umbrella; and the wood is SO pliable
that the ends OF the largest branches may
be bent down to within two or three feet
OF the earth.
The bark is whitish and somew hat
rough. tree is never without leaves,
which are at small distances from one
another, and on almost opposite sides OF
bough. Blossoms and green and ripe
fruit may be seen on the same tree at the
same time. When the blossom falls off,
there grows in its place a small green
fruit, which becomes dark red as it
ripens.
This fruit is not unlike a cherry, and is
very good to eat. Under the pulp OF this
cherry is found the bean or berry we call
coffee, wrapped in a fine, thin skin. The
berry is at first soft, and has bad taste;
but AS the cherry ripens the berry grows
harder, and the dried-up fruit becomes a
shell or pod OF deep brown color.
The berry Is now solid, and its color is
translucent green. Each shell contains
on the other. The seeds lie with the fiat
sides together, and, in one hly-prized
variety, the two seeds grow together,
forming one: this Is known as the pea
berry. When the fruit is so ripe that 1t
can be shaken from the tree, the husks are
separated from the berries, and are Used
IN Arabia, BY the natives, while the
berries are sold
The young plants arr inserted in hules
from twelve to eighteen inches deep, and
SIX or eight feet apart. II left to Them
selves, they would grow to the height Of
eighteen or twenty feet; but they arr
usually d"Hried - pruning, 50 THAI tuv

The quail is the bird for me. He is no
rover, no emgrant. He stays at home,
and Is identified with the soil Where
the farmer works, he lives, and loves, and
whistles. In budding spring time and
in scorching summer-in bounteous au

heard from the same bushy hedge fence
and from his customary cedsrs. Cupidity

y short time ago Maine folk were COM

which was causing great loss to the Ium-

ing the snow from the ice-ields Which

An Auburn lady who looked over her

that December, 1871, was not cold
enough to freeze the ground very deep.
Quite quantity OF snow fell, and lasted
until Jan, 1912, when the ground settled,
and the wheeling was good as in mid

February they began to have light SHOWS
that lasted a few days, and that practi-
cally ended the snowfall for the winter.
Feb. 3, 1912, was very warm and dry, and
