Fruitland, Fla.
For the Florida Agricuturist.
Three Varieties of the Camphor
Tree.
Comparing statements regarding
the habits of these trees, particularly
those pertaining to the effect of the
freeze of '95, has suggested this query
In the spring of '92 three of these
trees were received from the general
department Of agriculture and set in
a row parallel with the beach, all hav
ing like conditions. In appearance
they differ so much as to cause OBJ
servers to doubt their being of the
same class, while no two are alike in
habit of growth. Two Of them have
shown remarkable vigor and hardi-
ness, never having exhibited the
slightest effect from the succession Of
freezes of '94 and '95, but with the
gardenias retained all their beauty
and brightness amid the general DESC
latiOn.
They are now pyramids about four
teen feet in height with bases equal
to height.
The difference in appearance is
more pronounced when putting out
new foliage, that of one being so
| ;o.l,4 IN, To If rl1Or of a
yellow than green hue, while it's COM
panion has foliage of reddish
hue bordering upon purple. The tree
with light foliage is fruiting for the
third time, bearing berries which are
black when ripe and which when of
full size and green have the center
filled with seemingly pure camphor
and when eaten produces its effect.
The other trees have never fruited,
all have dense foliage, strong with
camphor.
I do not know how much, if, any,
would be the difference in the COM
mercial value of the two, both being
hardy, thrifty ana OF denSe IOllage,
but the other, of which [ will now
speak, has made not more than one
fourth the growth of it's companions,
although the only one fertilized,
was frozen so as to shed its leaves
to quite an extent in '95 and
about one-third of it's wood was
killed The new foliage differs
in color from either of the others
being of a light reddish hue and
very pretty and delicate, yet strong in
camphor.
These facts suggest the wisdom OF
seeking further knowledge before
putting out more trees, which [ know
of no better way to obtain than tt
appeal to your valuable and practica
paper hoping that the able manage
: ment and intelligent contributors
D will generously give the needful in

LOCKPORT, n. Y. oct. lS.-A recent
decision of the appellate division of the
supreme court relative to a Niagara
county excise case is of interest not
only here but to the people Of the on
tire state. Last spring Henry Fayetto
of Niagara Falls was indicted for sell
ing liquor on Sunday. At the trial the
defense was that f'ayettc was the pro-
prietor of "A hotel and that the drinks
We're served with meals. Faycttos place
went by the name of Hotel Royal. In
it there are II rooms, or one more than
actually required by law. District At
torney Hopkins argued, however that
several Of the rooms We're regularly oc-
cupied by boardPrs, who We're in no
sense transient guests, and that there
fore the actual number of rooms at the
disposal of transient guests was below
the number required by law. The jury
brought In a verdict of guilty, and
Fayette was fined 800. The case was
appealed. and a decision just handed
down sustains the Judgment of the low
or court This Is said to be the first
decision on this point of the Raincs
law.

Posta, Banks In Australia.

In several of the Australian col
onies both general savings banks
and postal savings banks exist, both
being under control of the govern
ment, says the Chicago Record.
This is true of Victoria, NowSouth
Wales and Tasmania. PostofEice
banks alone exist in Queensland
and Western Australia, and general
savings banks alone in South Au-
stralia. In Canada government
savings banks antcdate the postal
savings bank, but are giving way
to the latter as the more convenient
and suitable institution. In some
countries having the general savings
bank as distinguished from the pos
tai savings bank use is made of the
postotiices as places OF deposit for
Transmission To the general bank.
As between the general savings
banks under government control
and the postal savings bank there is
no question that the latter is the
one for adoption in the United
States, The postoliicc has in opcr-
alton machinery that could be uti-
lized for the protection Of small say

little additional trouble and en-

Of October 7th:
The connection of the two young
Middleswarths, Charles and William,
With the contest of the A. 5. Kern

Pennsylvania. Ner Middleswarth,
head of the Middleswarth family,
was for 81 years in succession Il

height, and very deliberate in

ber of Congress. His blunt man
Ders made him quite conspicuous
among his fellow representatives,
and he was much sought after at
social gatherings. Some very anus
Ing stories are related of his capers
at dinners given in his honor. Dur
ing the latter part Of the Forties he
was nominated for Canal Commits
siOner by the Wings and defeated.
There was at one time a very i'm
ortant Office, eagerly sought after
BY men of practical turn of mind.
The last Office filled by Ner Mid
dleswarth was that of Associate
Judge of Snyder county. He had
very narrow escape, his majority
being only ID, though the county
was then, as now, largly Republic
can.-Originally he was jackson
Democrat, but during the Thirties
he joined the anti-NIasonic move
ment and after its subsidence he
lriftcd into the Wing party. At the
death of the Wing party he became
Republican, remaining with that
PARTY to the end Of his evcntful ca
rer. Middleswarth was of Nol-
land extraction. He was a typical
Pennsylvania Dutchman."
The family Of Ner Middlcswarth
was an exceptionally large one. If
We remember correctly there were
II children, mostly sons. Several
Of them were elected to county Of
fees, one Of them being sheriff for
several terms.
The Middleswarths and kcrns
were easily the leading families of
Beaver township, Snyder county.
They were fast friends ard inter-
marriage was a natural consequence.
