Punishment for Contempt Of ceurt.
Detroit used to have a lawyer who
was shrewd enough to show contempt
OF court without incG1rring danger Of
the penalty that would have been vis-
tied uron au offender less diplomatic,
says the Detroit Free Press. He was
at one time being heard in an impor.
tant matter before the supreme court
a2d made an assertion which elected
from one Of the judges: ''That is net
tie law, SIR.
:2c:don me, your honor" with a
d3fefential bow, s:it was the law until
a minute ago. Now We accept new
principle established by supreme at
tAority.''

supreme justice himself; ''do you
mean to say that you are reading good
law?''
"1Not at all, your honor; only 81.
preme conrt de lions"
The most cutting think he ever said
to this same court was during the con-
Eideration Of desperate case in which
he had not leg to stand upon. He
made bo;d contention which was
fallacious but possible from begin
ming to end.
::8lank," said the court severely,

to come with gray hairs and are not
to be counted upon for scientific ac-
cUracy. Besides, we have a horrible
indistinct nightmare sort of remem-
brance, which we never mention, and
which, from being relegated to the
background of our memory for so
long, has become elusive, that later on
these trees had off years and were in
tested with canker worms, and that
apples were reputed to have been
taken from them which were small in
size, off in color and actually sour.
And still later ON some Of us have,
perhaps, visited these old homes teads
in person and found the trees them
selves although never frozen back
only about one-third as large as we
first knew them. This we demon
strated to our entire satisfaction by
the simple test that we had somewhere
seen recommended of encircling them
with Cur arms. We found that we
could now easily clasp our hands on
the other side, although when we first
knew them such a feat was impossi-
ble
Comparisons Of the horticultural
conditions Of today with those of the
past are apt to be fallaciOus unless we
have absolutely indisputable data upon
which to work, and in this direction
the preSent-day research, experiments
and rapidly accruing results are Of
such magnificent proportions as to al
most astOnish ourselves They are Of
vast import, not only to ourselves, but
to those who will come after us. It
is not only in our own tSate, but in
every State, that horticultural knowl-
edge is being eagerly sought and ad-
vanced methods of meeting local cond1-
lions established.
And in this connection there is one
thing it seems to me we are apt to lose
sigt Of, and that is that we are build
ing for posterity as we'll as ourselves,
and not only that, but building faster
than we know. We have only to look
back a quarter of a century and note
what giant strides have been made
within that time AS horticulturists
our progress may seem to us slow, but
that is only in comparison with the
heat of the race as applied to every
calling and profession.
Thirty, twenty or perhaps only ten
years hence such of us as are then
living, together with the newer mem
bers of which this society will by that
time be largely composed, will, in all
likelihood, look back and wonder why
we of the present time did not occupy
a more advanced position in relation
to certain phases of horticulture. But
let us remember that it is what we are
now doing today and in the interven-
ing time that is going to make their
standpoint of retrospect available.
In our efforts towards horticultural

which these good people dwelt for
forty years were continually fruitful
during that time and always free from
insects. The fact does, however, seem
to be fairly we'll established that dur
ing that period they were never even
partially frozen out.
Not only do L hope that [ shall not
be accused of sacrilege or irreverence,
but [ also trust that l shall not be con-
sidered an alarmiSt and Overrating the
difficulties which, as horticulturists,
beset us.
The tiller of the soil, be he hOrticul-
turist or agriculturist, has in every age
and in every cline had difficulties and
drawbacks to contend with, but tell
me, if you will, of any calling or any
profession upon which a man may EN-
bark With absolute assurance of riding
safely into port without ever encOun-
tering q head wind or an unruly wave.
In eur calling, as in every other,
/ there have been and will continue to
be both failures and successes, and in
our calling, as in every other, the man
who properly estimates the difficulties
to be encountered and then steadfastly
pursue4 a conservative we'll dined pre-
arranged plan of action, yet holding
himself in readiness to meet emergen-
cies as they arise, is he who can, with
the greatest dgree of confdnce, expect
success.
The day is past when half-hearted
or haD-hazard methods may be expect
ed to produce a rich harvest. The civ
ilization of today is, in every calling,
one of active and strenuous endeavor.
And, whatever comparison we may
choose to make between the prospects
for the future and those that have eX-
listed in the past, the results are at all
events, likely to prove disappointing to
him who lays stress and acts on the
maxim that ''tbe practices of his fore
fathers are good enough for him."
While | would not seem to overrate
the difficulties that we have to meet,
neither would l underrate them, for [
believe that he is no true friend Of the
hOrticulturist who would have us be-
lieve there is either time or land in
SIGHT where roses will bloom uncared
for the year round without ever de-
veloping so much as single thorn.

born in q more northern cline can look
back. 10 these many years, and remem-
Der how the old apple trees, under
which we played, bore, as it then

and how the trees were always healthy

Oh! Long lost horticultural brother
Of by-gone ages, if we might call your
spirit back and have you address oul
society on the horticulture of your day
and you, in turn, listen to our eXp0si
ton of a horticulturist's present-day
hardships, duties and equipments, we
wonder who would be the more aston
ished, you or we. If, however, you
should waive the priority generally ac
corded to old age and an invited guest
and ask that we adduce our evidence
first and we should go into detail OF
the things alluded to; refer to rava-
ges from frost and fire and drOuth and
food; inform you Of the vast amount
of horticultural Investigation and eX-
perimentatiOn being carried ON by emf
nent professors working through a bu-
reau of our national government sup
ported by the people; you would, we
imagine, listen with constantly in
creasing wonderment and finally, with
out vouchsafiing a word as to the hor-
ticultural conditions as you knew them
ask to be retired to the spirit world
from which you had emerged.
[ trust [ shall not be accused Of sac
rilege in dealing with Bible charac-
ters or of irreverence in calling up the
shade of one so long departed in or.
der to more clearly emphasize the
seeming contrast between conditions
past and present. AS a matter of fact
we know very little about the then
existent horticultural conditions, and
even the inspired account does MOI
state that the vines and figs under
