Russian Apples.

After several years of careful
trial of a large number of the best
Russian apples, many have come
10 the conclusion that, except tor
the most northern localities, where
good, old, well-known sorts will not
live and bear we have not gained
much from these varieties hitherto
introduced INTO this country,
There are a few exceptions, how,
ever. In the yellow Transparent
we have an exceedingly early
apple of very good quality. This
is probably the earliest kind ever
introduced, and for family use and
a very near market is valuable.
Absolutely hardy it may be
planted anywhere.
Another very beautiful early APP
pie that may come to be a strong
rival to the yellow Transparent
is the "Lowland Raspberry This
is a better quality and much more
beautiful. 1t is of fair size-full
medium-and bright color, yellow,
marbled with bright crimson
and is a good bearer; flesh tender,
breaking pleasantly sweet and
juicy; a good, handsome apple OF
its season. The tree is besides
very hardy.
"Switzer" is another surpass-
ingly beautiful apple. 1t is not as
good a bearer as either of the pre-
ceding varieties, moi as hardy, and
it blights badly and begins to drop
its fruit IS early as the end of
August, though the bulk of the
crop may hang and continue to in
crease in size till the 10th of Sep
TENDER. 1t will also continue to
deepen in color till at last it is of
a deep glowing crimson scarlet.
For size, beauty and quality it
leaves nothing to be desired.
"Arabka" and "Autonovka "
would be better left alone. Dur
ing the past two years they have
been very unsatisfactory. The
former scabs and splits and the
latter decays as soon as picked.
"Borsdorfer' and "Longheld'
are excellent small apples, too
small for market, splendid keepers
and good family fruit.

Rex BegOnia.

So many complain that the
Rex" after being brought into
the home, seems to flourish for a
time, and then its leaves, one by
one, fade and fall off, while the
new leaves are very small and the
whole plant takes on an unhealthy
appearance. Is your plant in a
sunny window or shaded. Strong
sunlight is injurious to the Rex
Begonia; a north window suits il
best. Do not allow water to stand
in the saucer below it. as it GER
tainly would be fatal to it. Be
careful not to let water stand on
the leaves OF this family as it will
rot them; and the plant should
have room for the air TO circulate
around its foliage. Keep them
just moist-never wet-and water
over the top of the pot, removing

Pruning and Training Rasp-
berries.

We are too fond of shortening
all the reserved canes to one
height, and, as a consequence,
there are usually thicSets of fruit
ing shoots, at the tops of the
stakes of fences and few lower
down. The canes, whether trained
to single stakes, fences, or espaliers
formed with other wires or stakes,
or grown market-grower's fashion
THAT is to say, without supports
of any kind), shuld be shortened
and laid in at least three different
lengths, the smallest of those re-
served at the preliminary thinning
being the hardest cut. Shorten
the latter to a length of IS inches,
leaving others to from 80 inches
to three feet in length, and in the
case of the taller growers the
strongest canes may be left to a
length of five feet or rather less.
In this way perfect columns,
fences, or hedges of fruiting
growths are had, and a greater
weight of fruit obtained than by
shortening and training in the
common fashion. 1t is true some
what hard pruning is apt to favor
sucker growth from the roots,
varieties of medium height being
particularly liable to produce far
more sucker growths than desir-
able. This may to a certain ex-
tent be checked by either hoeing
or manipulating, those left in the
rows or near to the old canes also
requiring to be timely and freely
thinned out. There must be no
hesitation about pruning newly
planted canes. Unpruned or only
lightly shortened canes may and
do produce fruit, but it is usually
of an inferior character or COM
paratively worthless, add to which
the plants will be exhausted in
the attempt, and form no young
canes worthy of the name. Cut
them down to within six inches
of the ground, and if they
were properly planted all will
push up strong young canes
equal to bearing fruit next year
In this way the foundation Of
profitable rows of plantations
of Raspberries will have been
laid. Newly-planted canes should
also be mulched, as owing to not
having had time to send their
anchor" roots down deeply into
the soil drought will quickly affect
them. They ought further to be
assisted by watering during dry,
hot weather.

One quart of oysters, one cup
bread crumbs, two tablespoons
butter, one teaspoon salt, one-half
teaspoon pepper, one teaspoon

hasten the fire. Longer baking
toughtens the oysters.

Pioneer Woman's Club.

The first woman's club founded
in America, or at least the first
about which we have authentic in
formation, was held in the city of
Penn Io2 years ago, under the
name of The Female Society for
the Relief and Improvement of
the Poor" 1t was begun and
organized by a Quaker spinster,
Anne Parish. The society con-
sisted first of twenty-three young,
accomplished women of the best
families, who met every week to
go out among the poor and needy.
When the city was visited by
yellow fever, shortly after the
formation of the club, the mettle
of its members was tried and found
to ring true. While most who had
the means fed from the town,
these twenty-three Quaker women
stayed with Anne Parish and
fought the plague. raising money,
visiting the dying, clothing the
we'll and comforting the bereaved.
From that time to the present the
society has endured and continued
in the work thus early initiated.
The granddaughter and great
granddaughter of the first
founders, who have inherited the
club membership along with their
Quaker traditions, their fine old
family names that will count in
Philadelphia society, are now pre-
pairing to celebrate the clubs Io2d
birthday. The membership is
passed down through the eldest
daughter, and the methods are not
altered from those first chosen.
There is no president nor vice
president, the only officers being
two clerks, a treasurer and a COM
mittee of thirteen. The prominent
work of the club is the mainten-
ance of a "house OF industry"
where nearly 100 old Quaker

Grace Darling.

While the memory of her hero
ism is still so fresh in the minds
of men and her fame still survives,
it is difficult to realize that Grace
Darling was born in 1915. Her
name appears in the English Die
tionary of Biography as Grace
Darling, heroine" She was the
daughter of the keeper of the
Longstone lighthouse in the Farne
islands. Her father was a man OF
severe religious principles, object
ing to novels and cards, especially
which he pronounced "the devils
literature" In September, 1898,
a Forfarshire boat was wrecked
on the rocks not far from the
lighthouse; the greater number of
passengers persisted, but nine of
the survivors managed to reach a
ledge above the breakers, where
they were mcmently in danger of
being washed off. They could be
see distinctly from the light
house, but the attempt to save
them was SO perilous that no boat
could be induced to venture to
their rescue.
Grace Darling implored her
father to go, and when he finally
consented, she and her mother
helped launch the boat; the daugh-
ter and father each took an oar,
and, though they were momently
in danger of being swamped. they
succeeded in bringing off one
woman and five man, two of the
survivors returning with Darling
and rescuing the others.
England - and, indeed, the
world-resounded with praise of
the heroic girl. She was besieged
for locks of her hair, she sat for
her portrait seven times within a
fortnight, hattering offers were
made her to visit London, which
she declined, preferring the soil
tude of the lighthouse on Farne
islands. She also received many
proposals of marriage, all of which
were declined. 1t was said that
she eve recovered from the
shock and exposure of the rescue;
she died at the early age of Fl,
Oct. 20, 1912.
