Dosch, secretary OF the state board Of
horticulture, we have received a copy
of the sixth biennial report OF that
board, book OF nearly 500 pages, full
of matter OF much interest to fruit
growers. The various diseases and
pests which aflli:t orchards are dealt
with very fully and the treatment re
commended which trial and experience

fail to improve lis present conditions.

cord per hour at its normal rate of
running. The rover is compressed air,
generated by a steam engine. He uses
800 foot hose to transmit the air to the
saving machine proper, thus being able
to saw wood anywhere inside 600 foot

eoeLlNs, eNoMes AND ELVES

You have read OF the fays and fairies, the
gobllns. Enomcs and ,ives7
They dwell here right among you. Why.
we are those folks ourselves;
The round-faced pudsy babies here m your
laps and homes.
We are the frolicsome fairies. the goblins
gay and gnomes,
'ris strange how people wonder and seek
both fast and far
For mysteries by the inillion which live
right where they are.
Good fairies watch DER mortals, their In
nocent ways and wlles,
Sow crops OF good intentions you harvest
in sheGves OF smiles;
They gladden. the pOcrtst houses. bring
hope to rhe poorts; hearts,
And lend men Inspiration to triumph In
fields and marts.
Don't we these things accomplish. when
baby's magic touch
VIII brighten the poorest hovel and bless
its mortals muchf
or course we are full OF mischief. It's q
trait OF the gleesome elves,
But grown folks lcan little to trouble
some ways themselves;
We keep them alert and watchful. restrain
them from over-sleep,
And sometimes even UP matters by making
them scold and weep;
But we later give fun measure OF blessing
disguised in noise,
Transmitting their brighter moments to
jubiees packed with joys
Their work would flag and falter but for
babes enshrined at home:
We sometimes act as magnets, permitting
them not to roam.
We hold their hearts at the fresids when
their bodies are far away.
And we even make hard sinners remem-
ber their God and pray;
OF course we are mites but mighty. wee
folk but wondf Gus strong.
For we turn to psalms the signing. and
we turn the sobs to song.
Yes. we are the fays and fairies. the COB
Inns, gnomes and elves,
Combining all their witchcraft and willy
ways ourselves:
We work grand transformations, some
times by the midnight moon.
When papas waltz In "nighties" and trot
to a home made tune.
Don't strain your eyes far-seeking for
hidden elves and charms,
Here are the wee folk nesting right In
your laps and arms.

has provided the ankle with ample sup

Eventful Voyage of the Ralph

The schooner Ralph J. Long, Captain

eVentful voyages of any vessel sailing
from the north.
Leaving Nome Oct. z3 with provi.
s1ons enough to last her to Dutch Har-
Dor under favorable circumstances,
before reaching the port the water
supply gave out and for two days the
passengers were without water. From
the time OF sailing from Dutch Har-
bor the long experienced continual
gales of unusual severity, the worst
being on Nov. IL, when seas swept
the vessel from stem to stern, carry.
ing away a portion of the water sup
ply and one lifeboat. Mate Hanson was
washed overheard, by an immense sea
and drowned. The last two weeks of
the trip the passengers had to depend
on what rain they could catch for
water supply.
