The Fair.

The Directors of the Fair will hold a
meeting during the coming week and will
perfect their work for the annual meeting.
Mr. E. E. Perkins, who has charge Of the
poultry department, assures US that his
show will surpass any previous years.
Much interest is being taken by our
county people to exhibit herds of Here
fords, Jerseys and Durhams.
The exhibit in the ladies department
will be increased as the ladies of La Plata
are in earnest in their work and they
promise a fine display from Charles
county.
The catalogues have been sent to the
people of Southern Maryland, and if more
are wanted the secretaries will mail them
to those making application. Already
there are horses on the track and during
the coming week a good number are eX
pected from Baltimore and New York.

MOOswa of the Boundaries.

The possibilities of the animal story

Fraser in his his new tales, entitled
Mooswa Of the Boundaries. These are
stories of Rod, the Boy, and the furbear-
ing animals of the Northwest and the
half breed trappers who hunt them. Each
of the tales teens with curious bits Of
wood-lorc and little-known facts about
the moose, beaver, bear. lynx, fox and
wolf.
Mr.. Arthur Hemng, who has illustrated
the stories, is sportsman and naturalist
as well as an artist.
The first of the Mooswa stories will

We know that nature occasionally
exhibits her working in the form Of
so-called freaks" a word which is
simply an admission of our own ina
bility to trace the origin of an effect
defective" which comes by cause"
But the majority OF such wonders are
often much less freaks than frauds.
Bacon lets us into some Of the secrets
Of their manufacture. The stems Of
certain trees-among which the myrtle
seems to be a favorite-have been
bored completely through their length
without destroying the vitality.
Through the channels thus formed the
stems Of suitable young plants are
carried up, the whole in due time hay-
ing the appearance Of a composite
head growing from a single stock 1t
is an old, old trick, which can only eX'
cite the Indignation Of intelligent
minds. OF course, the Chinese are
adopts in the production Of all kinds
of false, whimsical growths upon trees.
Their famous finger" fruit is well
known to travellers. but 1t is never re-
produced on the same tree when it
has once passed into a purchasers
hands 1t is, in fact. spurious graft
which, though imposed upon, is not
nourished through the parent stock.
The topialy gardener has in his time
Dlaypd many curious tricks upon the
heads Of his subjects, but the fashion
is dead, and we may the more readily
forgive him, seeing thai he never
sought to interfere with their vital
economy. The painful experience Of
converting the ivy into a standard
tree was once freely INDUCED in, but
the persistent creeper seems at last
to have worn out the patience of its
prosecutors. In the last century there
was a considerable demand by cabi
netmakers for a curious kind of veined
oak known in the trade as "green eb-
ony." This peculiar marking was pro-
duced by the severe twisting" to
which the young growing trees were
subjected. Such methods would seem
to demand ian act for the prevention
Of cruelty to vegetables" Happily,
no such enactment is now called for.
To 0bstruct or paralyze healthy nat
ural growths for the creation Of a
mere curiosity" is an inherently
vicious system, little likely to gain
any real footing among us.
