Secondly, and that which he
deems most important, is that tho
weather conditions in Ireland. are
90 much moro healthful and in
vigorating than in our changssble
climate that the Irish emigrant
runs more hazard Of health and
life in America. The mercury in
Ireland rarely rises above 80 de-
grees, while in the United States
during the summer months the
mercury frequently reaches 80 OF
sc. degress. Snoh . temperature
is:nsturally snsrvating o the Irish
emigrant. In winter, in 1reland,'
tho mercury rarely falls below 40
degrees while in tho United States
tho therometer sinks to zero and
below; or, In other words, the
United States experiences tropical
heat in the summer and in the
winter is subjected to Artic
temperature. The Cardinal there
fore thinks that the chances for
health and life are far moro as
suring in the nilder climate than
in the bitter and changeable cli-
mate of the United States.
The Cardinal has spoken words
of wisdom to the Irish people
which; they can understand and
should appreciate. The United
States has its advantages and dis
advantages to the emigrant. On,
erratic climate is one of the hard
est trials which the emigrant from
Northern Europe has to endvre
until he becomes acclimated.

ONE ORANGE TREE.
From IL the Agricultural Department
Established the Navel Orange
Industry of California.

There is an orange tree at the agri-
cultural department which, tradition
says, has produced revenue sufficient
to meet al the expenses Of that de-
partment for the last 80 years. Its his
tory is interesting. About 1870 an
American woman told Mr.. Saunders.
theexpert on pomology for the depart
ment, that She had enjoyed the most
delicious oranges while in the vcin-
ity Of the city of Bahia. Brazil, and be-
lieyed he would do well to procure
some IF the budded fruit Is an expert
ment in this country.
The secretary Of agriculture re-
quesfed our consul at that point TO
send him y budded trees. They came
in due time, and were in turn budded
on small seedlings for distribution.
This Is one great tree that survived,
and, while they did not thrive In Flor
ida, they did on the Pacific coast. and
to-day the navel or Bahia orange. the
father Of that industry in California,
owes its existence to the single tree
now standing in the glass house in the
agricultural grounds.
ct the crop Of about 10000 carloads
for 1901 at least $1,000 Of them were Of
the navel variety, while the revenue
varies from S3,0oo,oo0 to $5,0oo,o0o a
year.
The statement of this fact, a single
tree having produced sufficient rev.
enue to sustain the department for a
period Of 80 years. never fails to awe
the tourist. and causes him to beg for
