Grove who take an active interest in
all things tending to the advancement
Of the village. He is the agent for The
Herald and Times, and is the right man
in the right place.
A mile or two to the north of Garden
Grove is strip of sandy soil of consid-
cradle extent which for many years was
not looked upon with much favor by the
farmers OF the vicinity, vet through re
cent developments it has proved to be
about the best land for successful fruit
culture to be had in the county. All it
needed was plenty of water, for below
the top layer of sane is an extremely
rich and deep soil. Among the best de-
veloped farms on this sandy belt is that
of Mr.. E P. Fowler. Mr.. Fowler has
made very great improvements on his
land since purchasing it a few years ago.
He now has two pumping plants operat-
ed by gasoline engines. One of these
plants will give a flow of 100 inches of
water, and the two furnish sufficient
water for the irrigation of $50 acres of

Mr.. C. Cawchon, who lives a short dis

from one of which turns an overshot

Westminster's part in these various
industries was the shipment of 225 car
loads of barley, the product of 5000 acres
sown; 260 carloads of celery. 1000 tons of
hay, 1000 hogs and seventy-five carloads
of potatoes and the product of two
creameries in constant operation and
which purchases daily average of
$4,000 pounds of milk from the farmers.
The constant stream of money paid to
the farmers and dairymen by these two
establishments make money always

when emerging from the entrances to
the different railroads that lead to and
from the metropolis, or when he catch

1t all depends on the way you reach

happen to lard at the iron pier you first
run the gauntlet of a restaurant on the

waiter grins at you in the most persuas-

you Immediately see the visions of un-
limited beer and frankfurters. Beer and
Coney island are as inseparable as Da-
mon and Pythias. Certainly the inhab-
itants of the island would die to save the
beer.
The island is widely advertised as the
place where the rural visitor is ogled and
deceived. Really, it is the metropolitan
youth of low degree who contributes
mostly to the exchequer of those at the
island. who live because they are wise
and otherwise. There are three distinct
types which appeal to the visitor to the
island The first and most vociferous is
known as the barker" He is undoubt-
edly the type which gave rise to the term
leather-lunged. He is sans coat and
manners. His only object in life is to

could possibly resist so great luxury
To his mind, the world begins and ends
with the frankfurter, and the poor being
who fails to realize this is certainly de-
serving of sympathy.
These are some of the things that the
Fourth of July intensifies on Coney
Island. On that day whoever takes a
notion to travel down islandwards, will
see visions that the place only furnishes
on a great holiday. If the London cos
termonger of which Albert Chevalier
has taught US, were to come to America,
he would find Coney Island a heaven.
We see every Fourth Of July quite a
number Of Arrys. Some Of them are
counterfeit and some are not, but they
all seem to be having a good time. They
stop at the shooting gallery. They view
the wonders of Araby blest via the
Street in Cairo. All the charm Of the
stage, so far as they can appreciate it,
is open to them for quarter of dollar.
What bliss could compare with this.
Then, as you walk along the Ocean
avenue, you see a curious-looking in

a sack coat and a silk hat, who, from
his smooth face and sardonic glance

1t is sad reflection to me to see
how many children there are who
have no real love of flowers. They
may be attracted by pretty and fra
grant blossoms, all children are that,
but as for cultivating and giving the
tender care that plants require, and
thus learning some of the sweetest
lessons in life, they know nothing,
and all about them are acres of UNI
titled soil.
The keeping of bit of garden, if
only few feet of earth, nay, if only
few pots in sunny window, is IA
valuable bit of training, and cannot
fail to inspire love of the beautiful
that will have an important infiu-
ence on the character throughout
life.
1t should be remembered that eX-
ample is the first element to be con-
sidered in educating the childish
mind. Do not try and force a child
to keep a bit of garden, but keep one
yourself. Sow seeds and plant slips,
and spend spare moments caring for
them, and water highland morning
and always have your child with
you; be talkative and wax enthusi.
astic, never mind whether you are
understood or not, it will not be long
before the child will initiate you,
and want garden of its own, and
when this is brought about, you may
rest assured you have sown seed in
the childish heart that will grow to
a blossOming of great beauty.-EX-

A Paying Business

Mr.. Etler Davis, who resides in
the suburbs of this place, started in
the dairy business on small scale
last April, with only six cows, fur
nishing milk to the Lewisburg
Creamery. From time to time he
increased the number of his cows
from the money he received from
the sale of milk, having in Novem-
Der fifteen cows. UP to the 18th of
January he had thus bought seven
teen cows and had $50 left, his cows
being valued at $50 each, together
with calves valued at $50, which he
says will about pay for the food con-
sumed by the cows. Thus by small
calculation, it will be seen that his
business has yielded him not less
than $50 since April and he still has
his cows left. 1t is needless to say
that Mr.. Davis is more than pleased
with his success so far and that he is
still in the business.-Marshall

much liked now, and probably will
be even through summer. Many

That he thus to me his goodness should

The lesson which so bitter to learn had

Grew sweeter each day, as the soul was

Speaking out in kisses, smiles and

Which set at naught my foreshadowed
