In Reply to Brownie. .

Ed. Register-I have had my atten.
ton called To one of brownies" com
munications in the Republican regard,
ing how | conducted my school.
10 the first place I say that l did
read some. and 1 will do so again un.
der such circumstances, but in regard
TO me neglecting my studies to read is
as false statement as eyer was ut
tered.
/ just leave it to any of the previous
teachers if they did not have plenty OF
time to read. ! left a record of my
school and attendance, and it will COM
pare favorably with any teacher that
has taught there for number of years.
/ also leave it to the larger pupils if
ever refused to assist them in their
studies when they found anything that
was too difficult for them. 1 will just
refer you to VIM. Good, Charley and
Geo. Kuhn. Daisy Propst, and any OF
the others that was old enough to
know when any of them was neglected.
About taking up school at ''any
time" that is a statement that cannot
be substautiated. | would make an
affidavit before any magistrate that it
is a falsehood, ana If you, Miss
brownie" still persist in such Sian
der you may he called upon to prove
some of your broad assertions.
Now l just want to say for the bene-
fit of those that are not acquainted with
these things. that B. knows as much
about how | conducted my school as a
hog knows about Easter Sunday. B.
does not live in the district, has never
had any interest in the school. Has
not lived In Iron county but little
over a year. Now, a stranger to come
to strange place, and try to make
themselves so conspicuous is an ex-
ample OF what they would do.
cannot see any reason why B.
should want to slur me so, for | have
treated her with as much respect as
was due any person.
OF course / do not say that every
thing in my school was as smooth as
glass, for any school teacher that has
taught any would know it was not so,
but believe that what trouble | had
grew from social affairs, and | know
am not a universal success socially,
having been reared in the country,
and not having had the advantage of a
Chicago Suburban social circle in my
childhood and after years, as b. has
had. is sufficient to prove my defcien-
cies therein.
This is all intend to say through
the press; would not have said what |
have but I hated to let such untruths
go through the columns of the press
undisputed.
Hoping Mr.. Hightower success,
which | believe he will have,
Yours, Respectfully,
MARTIN JOHNSON.

woodlands that border the rivers and
lakes and have survived in the ravines;
furnished the desired material but the
source from which to draw a fruit sup
ply was not so easily found. The plon-
eer in an unknown climate may accept
it as an axiom that success will be at
tanned much more quickly from the
adoption Of native plants than from
the introduction OF foreign ones. 1t
would be very extraordinary portion
of this earth's surface which would, by
nature, be supplied with all the plants
needed to provide for the several wants
Of man. If we but reflect moment
and consider the origin of the several
cereal grains and fruits now considered
as necessities and grown by the people
of any one section of the United
States, we cannot but be impressed
with the great Importance of the power
of acclimatiZation and the extent to
which it has acted upon plants. But
while we fully appreciate the value CT
introduced species. yet for the more
primitive necessities, such as shelter
and fuel, We should look to native
rather than to introduced plants.

Reynolds has ranch, of which he en-
joys telling even more than he does Of
the experiences through which he has
passed during his half century upon

Cal. The chief product is honey. This
product is gained from two apiaries,
which Mr.. Reynolds visits every time
his business permits him to so to
southern California. In my apiares
which are cared for by my son." said
he, there are 40 stand of bees. The
honey season lasts from April to July.
This season my bees yielded 10000
pounds Of honey, which sells in that
country in bulk lots at cents a pound.
Two of the hives gave over 500 pounds
each. For ten years | have been inter-
ested in bees in a small way, and
take greater interest in them every
year. A hive or stand of bees is worth
$3.50. In it are the queen, the drones
and the workers, a total population Of

She is the undisputed boss Of the job.
An ordinary bee lives during the work

A bee goes to work at the tender age o.
