In spite of all the talk of the necessity
Of teaching by example. and not by pre-
cept, there is one important exception
a mother must cultivate selfishness to a
certain extent if she would train her chill
dren to s-theughtful and unselfish. THE
luxury of urgeihshness'' may sound
strange, but there is just as much truth
In it as there IS in that other paradox
aenjoying poor health" Mothers are the
class which Is most addicted to the habit
of reveling in the luxury Of unselfshness,
which no doubt accounts for the host of
boys and girls in this world who cannot
and viii not do anything for themselves,
If they can possibly beg or compel some
one else to do 1t for them.
After all there is no true kindness in
atidying up after a careless daughter,
and il her bureau drawers are not
Strengthened out by the maternal hand,
the young lady herself win find herself
compelled by either shame or necessity
to nut things to right. A girl can't ride
through her whole life on her bicycle. nor
can she toss troubles out3of her way just
ax sends tennis ball across the green
court.
a boy is never improved in the end If a
frugal mother economies to help him in
his extravaganza. 1t is common for
mothers to say that the poor" boy or
girl will encounter trouble soon enough
without having 1t cast at home, but the
troubles Of all after life will be all the
more difficult to overcome when the man
or woman has not been trained from the
beginning to cope with difficulties.

GOVERNMENT REPORT.
Condition of Crops in New Engla

Condition of Crops in New England. l General Situation.-The high tempera- lures of the past ten days have brought shrubs and trees into nearly full foliage and fruit trees into bloom. The lack of rainfall is being more and more felt, al though few correspondents claim that the present situation is favorable enough as it is. However, the surface of the ground is becoming dry, and there is need of rain for grass and pastures. | In the northern section the ground is generally in good condition for working. Oats have been extensively sown, and few potatoes planted but there is not as yet much general planting. The fields have changed to bright green and stock is feeding in the most forward pastures.
 In the southern section the week is regarded as favorable, and seeding has made good progress. The Connecticut river has falen toa normal stage, but bottom lands are still too wet to work. Grain.-Rye continues in good condi- tion. Oats are showing three inches high in Rhode Island. Ground is being quite generally prepared for corn in the southern section; in a few sections seed ing is mostly completed, and some corn is up in the extreme south.
 Grass.--In the northern section reports are in general very favorable to this crop. In the south it's condition is tri- fe less promising than for the two pre- vious weeks. All correspondents speak of the early necessity for more moisture; some regard the crop as f1ourishing even under present conditions, others report it as growing slowly, drying up and thin.
 Fruit.-A correspondent in southern Connecticut reports that all fruits will blossom freely except peaches, which, however, are better than at first expect ed. Cherries, plums and pears show full bloom in nearly every section. It is little early to report on apples but the present prediction is for fair blossom. Cranberry bogs look well.
 Vegetables Potatoes are mostly planted in the far south and some are up. Beets, onions and peas, where up, are making fairly good growth, although retarded somewhat during the past week. I
 Garden Truck.-Damage to asparagus and rhubarb by frost Is reported In Connecticut early planted garden truck Is well up and partly cultivated.
 Tobacco beds are showing good catch i of seed and are growing rapidly.
