Strong drink warpeth those who love 1t,

Eyes turn dim and pulse tide blood
Euns too fast or crumbleth laggard

"Lessened drink brings double bread"
Though your rulers may neglect ye.
"Be We soberl" in your strength!
And they must and shall respect ye
And the light shall dawn at length.
But let none cry out for freedom,
With a loud and feverish breath;
While they let a foul cup lead them
To the slavery of death.

God-why Hearts Are Often Weary
IT'S written on the sacred page,
Nor leaves one path uncertain,
Until before life wondrous stage
Deaths hand has dropt the curtain
Not only where the way is dark
And storm-clouds thickest lower,
Your lonely path you scarce may mark
And manifold the tempter's powers
As well in times OF peace and calm,
Through blssful days you tarry
Benea. IN the shade OF Films palm
Nor care nor burthen carry;
As we'll by Marah's bitter stream;
Thy soul submerged in sorrow;
And life for you a fitful dream,
Nor ray of hope you borrow!
Yea. all thy paths, through all thy days
That is the promise given
Or bright or sad, by devious ways,
The journey through to heaven.

Character.

Character is your real self. the essence
OF life. You cannot stop its progress for
good or evil unless you stop life itself.
Hence how necessary it becomes that we
add to character all that shall make it a
grand, glorious and noble temple, and Of
which angels even shall rejoice over.
character is made from variety of mi1
mute circumstances, not the product "A
one art. Even the smallest act adds or
ddetracts something, be it little or great.
from the noble structure. There are MANY
stones in the arch of character, such az
iaith, knowledge, goodness, power, pa-
tience; meekness, etc, but the keystone
must be love. This is the motive which
runs runs as q golden thread, and as the beau
tiful arch spans the river over which you
may, cross in safety, so the beautiful arch
OF character is the span between this life
and the next. over which we may cross in
safety.-W. Y. Morehouse.

CanÌƒon City record. [volume] (CanÌƒon City, Colo.) 1883-192?, 1902-10-16

One afternoon during the current
week Record representative visited
u number of fruit growers of his ac-
quaiutance on Lincoln Park, and in
other parts of the valley, with the
view of ascertalning their opinions
III relation to the frequency with
which apple trees should be sprayed TO
destroy the ravages wrought by the
coddling moth, and obtain from then
an expression of the best manner
of keeping apples after picking them,
pending their sale in the open market
The visit was one of exceptional
pleasure to the writer, he being every
where shown the utmost courtesy, and
in spite of tine urgency of their busi-
ness engagements, he found none of
the ranchmen called upon too busy
to reply 10 questions, or TO relate their
experiences with the subjects upon
which we were endeavoring to compile
some data for publication.
There was no disagreement AS TO
the value of spaying, there being a
unanimity of opinion as to its necessi-
ty, based upon experience and obscr-
walton, although there was great di-
versity of idea rs to the time when
such processes should be resorted TO
in order to obtain the best results.
There is an equal dissimularity OF
view rs to the best method of keeping
apples during the winter months, the
least deterioration in quality of the
fruit, of course. being the object TO be
attained. Below is given n sort of
symposium of the opinions of the
gentlemen we interviewed un these
topics.
Capt. b. F. Rockafellow: My or.
chards have been carefully looked af-
ter during the past year, and the
trees frequently sprayed. but in spite
of this fact we find good many
wormy apples. Ii is prac tically i'm
possible 10 prevent the moth from
doing some damage. although its evil
work is greatly mitigated by proper
sparying of the trees at the right sea-
sons. So far As the plan of keeping
the fruit after it has been picked is
concerned. do not understand that
il makes any great difference whether
they are piled up in the orchard or
stored away in building for the pur-
ose. | resort to both methods as the
exigencies of the occasion demand
and have but little trouble on this
score. At present the tirst-class ap-

waited, all weeds and other rank grow
tbs being kept down.
W. H. La Grange of 5Oj Orchard
avenue says: Ny belief, predicated
upon a somewhat varied experience,
is that apple trees require spraying
five or six times during THE season TO
insure the destruction OF the insects
which prey upon the fruit. For
several seasons have used stream
instead of a spay and believe it to be
more etfacacious. although it is a little
more troublesome to apply the solution
to the tree in this way than it is in
the customary manner. So far as
keeping apples is concerned l am con-
WINGED that ricking them up in tire
orchard is the best way to retain rheir
