NAPOLEON AS A HoRsEMAN.

Ride In Spain.

SAID TO Have Made Most Remarkable
Ride In Spain.
Napoleon, though he had a rather
ungainly and by no means a safe seat,
was yet capable Of doing splendid
work in the saddle, and one of his
feats places him in q high notch. Las
Casas says of it:
Ellis most celebrated ride was that
from Valladolid to Burgos-thirty-five
Spanish leagues-in five hours and a
half. The emperor had left Valladolid
with numerous escort on account of
the danger from guerrillas: at every
town some one was found to have
dropped behind. and Napoleon arrived
almost alone"
q Now. considering that thirty.fve
Spanish leagues are equivalent to las
English miles, these figures are alb
surd. but that the ride was an extra
ordinary one Is attested by many indie
pendent accounts.-Outing. #

Breeding Hardy Fruits.

over a large area of the prairie
northwest, many Of the fruits grown
IN the eastern and southern states are
deficient In hardness. This has been
demonstrated by thousands of plant.
ers. The climatic extremes of the
northwestern prairies do not make
fruit culture impossible; but care
must be taken in the selection of
varieties. The fruit lists adopted by
the various state horticultural 40.
cieties give the general experience
with varieties. The beginner should
confine his first main planting to the
sorts which have stood the test. but
often the list is SO short that the
varieties recommended for trial are
needed to fill out the list. There is
need of extending the present short
list Of fruits. Successful fruit culture
Is essential to true home.making upon
the open prairies. hence the work OF
originating hardy fruits is of the high.
est possible Importance. 1t is only in
recent years that the immense i'm.
portance of plant-breeding has become
generally recognized. Plant.breeding
means the originating of improved
varieties by selection, crossing and
hybridizing. These are often termed
