fornia Fruit Grower.

Farming a century ago consisted prin-
cipally of planting the seed, keeping
out the weeds and waiting for the har-
vest. with little or no conception of the
chemical processes through which the
soil induced the plant growth, and, con-
sequently, no knowledge Of how the
plant growth could be forced, by the adj
dition to the soil Of the chemical con-
stituents which were lacking. Likewise
the apples and small fruits were looked
upon as q side issue, which must be left
largely to chance in producing profit
able crops. Gradually, however, a
change has come about, until now the
farmer performs his labor as a scientist

An inch rope 20 feet long is attached

good solid hook fastened into the other
end Of the rope is brought back and
hooked over the shaft just inside the

placed upon the rope, and to this pulley

The Belgian hare craze has gone by,

some Of those who took up breeding and
Importing at the commencement Of the

largely as a meat producing animal, al
.nough the stories told about 1t in this
direction are greatly exaggerated. But
mere is a small and. possibly growing
asmand for the meat. which is Of high
auallty. The hares attain market size

RESIGNATION.

There is no flock, however watched
and tended,
But one dead lamb is there.
There is no fireside, howsoe'er de
Tended.
But has one vacant chair
The air is full of farewells to the dy
ing
And MORNINGS for the dead;
The heart of Rachel, for her children
crying,
Will not be comforted!
Let us be patient! These severe at
fiictions
Not from the ground arise.
But oftentimes celestial benedictions
Assume this dark disguise.
We see but dimly through the mists
and vapors;
Amid these earthly damps
What seem to us but sad, funeral
tapers
May be heavens distant lamps.
There is no Death! What seems so
IS UTaQS1IlOD.
This life of mortal breath
Is but suburb of the life elysian,
Whose portal we call Death.
She is not dead-the child of our af-
fiction
But gone unto that school
Where she no longer needs our poor
protection,
And Christ himself doth rule.
In the great cloister's stiffness and
seclusion,
By guardian angels led,
Safe from temptation, safe from sins
pollution,
She lives whom we call dead.
Day after day we think what she is
doing
In those bright realms of air;
Y ear after year, her tender steps pur-
suing,
Behold her grown more fair.
unbroken
lie DOuu WHICH nature gives,
Thinking that our remembrance,
though unspoken.
May reach her where she lives.
Not as child shall we again behold
her,
For when with raptures wild
n our embraces we again enfold her,
She will NOT he child
But fair maiden, in her Fathers
mansion,
Clothed with celestial grace,
md beautiful with all the souls ex-
pansion
Shall we behold her face.
md though at times impetuous with
emotion
And anguish long suppressed,
he swelling heart heaves, moaning
like the ocean,
That cannot be at rest.
We will be patient and assuage the
feeling
We may not wholly stay,
y silence sanctifying, not concealing,
The grief that must have way.

Norway has long been regarded as

from this sea-girt land comes the re-

doubted whether the faith ever actual
