THE FARM AND PROSPERITY.

The evolution of a period Of national
prosperity is indicated by progressive
steps-frst, an Improvement in the
stock and bond market; next, new life
in all manufacturing interests, this in
volying the employment Of labor; next,
improved prices for all farm products,
brought about by the increased con-
sumption. and last Of all marked rise
in the value of agricultural lands. This
country is now at the last stage of this
evolution of period Of great prosper
ity, with little short of veritable
boom all over the country In land val
ues The evolution of a period of SO
called hard times is simply the fore.
going process reyersed-first, a panicky
stock market, then curtailment OF
manufacturing and discharge of labor
ers, lowered prices for farm products
and then, to finish up. decreased values
of farm land, the farm always being
the last to feel the effect Of both con-
ditions.

THE CLYDE STRAWBERRY.

Clyde strawberry. Well, like some peo-
pie whom we know, too many good
things cannot well be said of this Der

us recently that the Introduction of the
Clyde strawberry was the greatest
boon to growers of small fruit confer

many berries as any other of the popu-

no mistake If gou plant the Clyde In

the whole advantage was spoiled
through the insane Jealousy of Captain
Beaumont. 1t seems that the captain
had disdained 10 hide with the rest.
Indeed he had no occasion to hide. The
guerrllas did not know that he was
with our party, and he was in no more
danger from them than any other man
would be- He had, however, yielded
to Jacks persuasion to go into house
and keep out of sight. When the guer
rillas rode into town, he was sitting by
window slipping glass of Tennessee

imprinted the kiss on Jacks forehead

ing over him as if he had been dearer
to her than all the world beside.
At this moment a guerrilla, who had
doubtless been attracted by the firing,
dashed down the road. Beaumont
caught sight of him just as Jack had
hurled her opprobrious epithet. With
an expression indicating that he would
prefer death to another such word from
the girl who had enthralled him, he
started to meet the invader. Shots
were exchanged,A and the guerrilla fell
from the saddle. He was followed by
another, who shared the same fate,
while a third. perhaps fancyng that
he had struck a troop of Confederate
soldiers, turned and fed. All this hap
pened SO quickly that no one but Beau
mont and the three bandits had an OPP
portunity to take hand in the fight.
When there were no more guerrillas for
the captain to kill, he went shyly back
to Jack, who had witnessed his feat,
looking like schoolboy who had done
penance for fault and wanted for

the guerrillas was but temporary; that
they would soon come down on us in a
