Drunkard's Advice to Pillar of a Phil.
adeIphia Church.
A drunken man staggered into a
church in Philadelphia some years ago
and sat down in the pew of one of
the deacons. The preacher was dis
coursing about prevalent popular
vices. Soon he exclaimed. where is
the drunkard?" The drunken man was
just far enough gone to think the call
personal, so, rising heavily, replied:
Here I am" and remained standing
while the drunlzard's character and
fate were eloquently portrayed. A few
minutes later the preacher reached an
other head of his discourse, and asked:
where is the hypocrite?" Gently
nudging his neighbor, the drunkard
said, in an audible whisper: STAND
up, deacon; he means you this time.
Stand up and take it like man, just
as stand! 1t will do you good"

The lnvincible Country Boy.

A glance at list of the great men
OF the big cities of the United States
will prove beyond doubt that the
country-bred boy is far superior to
his city-born cousin in point of busi-
ness and professional ability and gen.
eral capacity. Many reasons are ad-
vanced for the success of the country
boy in the large cities, but the one
that seems to hit the nail on the head
Is that the youngster of the provinces
is taught to work, and by this is meant
a good honest days work, one of
twelve hours. He is a sticker, too,
who is willing to start in at the bot
tom, and when you find a country boy
who is a worker and sticker he is
frvincible. You can't keep him down.

Source Of Scions.


One of the leading horticulturists
Of Michigan declares that it is a mis-
take to take scions from nursery
trees. The scions from such source
have not the ability to bear fruit that
have scions taken from mature and
bearing trees, so he says. He claims
that this is the cause of the non
fruttfulness Of very many orchards.
He also claims that it is the cause of
variations in fruit of the same va
riety. This is a point of considerable
Importance. The contention, if true,
has in 1t much of weight In horti-
cultural matters. We do not, how
ever, believe that many horticulture
lists at this time agree with this opin-
ion. It is generally believed that
whether scion come from an 1mma-
ture tree or a mature tree does not
matter. 1t would be interesting to
know what proof is adducible in be-
half Of the contention. If the cause
par excellence" of unfruitfulness of
orchards can be determined to be the
source of scions it will be an easy
matter to remedy. It is a fact that
some trees of the same variety are
more fruitful than other trees. What
is the cause of this? In the case Of
a fruitful or unfruitful tree does the
scion taken from that tree carry the
same habit Of fruitfulness into it's
new existence? These are questions
that we would like to have deter
mined if possible by our readers.

Cheap Plants.

Cheap plants must of necessity be
grown cheaply. When you come to
divide up the sum of $1.z5 between
use of land, fertiliZing, cost of original
plants, setting, cultlvating, mulching,
digging and packing 1000 plants, cost
of catalogue and advertising, as well
as meeting general expenses incident
to doing business, each expense &C.
count must be cut down to a few
cents, to balance income. It can only
be done with plants having the whey
habit, raked out with potato hooks,
counted and packed by child or other
cheap labor in the open field or some
open shed exposed to sun and wind,
since that price will not permit the
expense of erecting suitable buildings
for the purpose, and hiring a better
class of labor.-R. M. Kellogg.

fatress Is Not Health.

1t has been remarked that some
swine breeders mistake fairness for
health and vigor. Fat does sometimes
indicate thrift, but not always. When
a pig has been properly fed on bal
anced rations and lays on fat it is an
indication of vigor, for the animal is
getting the most possible out of the
food. But when the ration is one of
corn only and the pig gets fat the in
dications are not such as may be
trusted to indicate health. The fat
comes in that case from an attempt
of nature to build up the body through
celebrating a large quantity of food.
AS the food is in that case mostly
fat-forming great deal of fatty It's
sue is elaborated in the work of get
ting small amount of muscular It's

Truck Farming in Cuba.


Previous to the advent of the
Americans, trucking for the northern
markets was unknown in Cuba. and
In fact, the industry, as practiced for
the local markets, was conducted on
a very small and unenterprising scale,
says the Cuban Investor and Guide.
AS early as the fall of 1899 the Amer
lean farmer began experimenting In
several separated localities, none of
which were far from Havana. These
experiments were unsuccessful f1nan
clally but resulted in a great deal OF
valuable practical experience. The
soil is so much at a. variance from
that in the States that lessons of its
cultivation had to be acquired by even
the most expert farmers. The ground
is hard, and in some places almost
flinty when dry, and thick and heavy
when wet. This, added to the heavy
mat of grass and the packed condi-
ton of the soil by reason Of it's long
disuse, made the original breaking
a task of great labor and extreme diff
ficulty. Men planned their work cal
culating that the expense would be
about the same as it would be for the
same class of work in the States but
before the task was half completed
discovered their error.
Guines, small town about IS miles
by rail from Havana, is the center of
the trucking industry on the island.
For some years it had been widely
known for the excellent potatoes and
onions produced in the surrounding
artiticially irrigated land. A seasons
crop of potatoes would run up to $780,
600 barrels and the onion production
would reach about 100000 barrels.
The land in this vicinity is espe-
cially adapted for the successful rails
ing of all tender crops, particularly
those of a. thirsty nature. A river
rises in the hills to the north of
Guines and runs down the country by
the town, emptying into the Carribe-
an sea. A series Of bitches were made
during slavery days and the water
from this river was distributed
among the farms as far east as San
Nicholas, each farm having a fixed
water privilege.

Animal Food.

According to a contemporary an old
Scotsman-and he must be now very
old indeed-who was addicted to par
simony, was found by visitor to be
manifestly suffering from want of food.
He was strongly urged to take some
animal food, and promised that he
would; but presently thought better
of it and thus delivered his final YER
dict: 'Weel," he said, "l'm willing
to try turnip or maybees an onion,
but I'm blest if I'll eat straw" The
decision showed which way the wind
blew with. him.-London Globe.

9ertillon Makes One Success.

Bertillon, the expert, who won un-

case, has at last indicated his claims
for his system of detection. A mys-
ferrous murder was committed in
Paris lately and no clew was left by
the murderer except certain finger
marks on a window pane. The
streaks were photographed and en-
larged and Bertillon identified them
as belonging to a man who had un-
dergone the anthropometric system
eight years ago. The man was found
and arrested and the murder has been
proved against him.
