FACTS ABOUT THE BANANA

When Ripened on the Plant It IL Not
Suitable for Food.
There is a vast amount Of ignorance
the North concerning the growth, pro-
duction and marketing Of bananas.
Many people imagine that the natives
in tropical climes step out of their huts
in the early morning and pluck and
eat bananas fresh from the plant the
same as they would oranges and other
fruits. Bananas rfpened on the plant
are not suitable for food and would
be much the same as the pith which is
found in the northern cornstalk or ell
der. Bananas sold in the United States,
even after travelling 5000 miles in a
green state, are every bit as good as
bananas ripened under a tropical sun.
This is probably true Of no other ex-
port fruit. The plant Of which ba-
nanas is the fruit is not a tree nor is
it a bush or vine. 1t is simply gi-
gantic plant, growing to a height Of
from fifteen to twenty feet. About
eighteen feet from the ground the
leaves, ofttimes eight feet long, come
out in a sort of cluster, from the cen
ter of which springs a bunch of ba-
nanas. These do not grow with the
bananas pointing upward, naturally,
and if the stem grew straight they
would hang exactly as seen in the fruit
stores and grocers' windows. This,
however, is not the case; the stem
bends under the weight of the fruit
and this brings it into directly the
opposite position, with the large end
of the stalk up and the fringes point
ing toward the sun.
A word of explanation concerning
some banana terms. Each banana is
called a Ginger and each of these lit
tie clusters Of fingers surrounding a
stalk is called a 'hand;" the quality
and value of each bunch depend on the
number Of hands it has. Some may
wonder how the fruit is cut from the
top of q plant fifteen feet from the
ground. The native laborers cut the
stalk part way up it's height, the
weight of the fruit causes the stalk to
slowly bend over until the bunch of
bananas just nicely reaches the
ground, then the bunch is cut off with
the ever-ready machete and carried to
the river or railroad for shipment. The
plant at the same time is cut close to
the ground. The banana is very pro-
life producer of itself and at every
cleaning of the land it is necessary
to cut down many of the young plants,
or suckers" as they are termed, in
order that they may not become over
crowded up to a certain limit; the
fewer suckers on given area the larg-
er the fruit they will produce.

Johnny App1eseed.

Before the days of the Civil War
every country boy and girl had heard
of Johnny Appleseed. He was queer
character wandering from place to
place, and as he played his fiddle very
well and did not beg for money most
people were glad to see him. In these
days we might have called him
tramp, but Johnny was no idle good
for-nothing, as you will see. Whenever
he entered village every one gathered
to hear him play merry tunes, and
though he often accepted lodging and
clothing, he never passed the hat for
money.
He never talked about himself nor
told where he was going, but used to
recite the most wonderful tales in
rhymes. Children loved to hear him,
and interested people used to write
down some of his verses. Appleseed
was only a nickname which was given
him on account of a singular habit he
had of planting seeds. Whenever he
ate an apple, peach or pear, he saved
the seeds, and while tramping across
the country used to stop and plant
them in places where he thought they
would grow. Years afterwards many
family taking up land in the wild
Western country chose a spot where
a fiourishing orchard was growing
that had been planted by Johnny Ap-
pleseed. This is one Of the songs that
he used to sing:
love to plant little seed,
Whose fruit never see;
Some hungry stranger it will feed,
When it becomes a tree.
I love to sing a little song
Whose words attune the day
And round me see the children throng
When 1 begin to play.
So 1 can never lonely be,
Although 1 am alone,
I think of future apple trees
Which help the men unknown.
I sing my heart into the air,
And plant my way with seed,
The song sends music everywhere,
The tree will tell my deed.

Trick Played with Dominoes.
Here's q jolly trick you can play
with dominoes, boys and girls.
Place twelve of them in a circle (see
picture) and tell one of the players
that you can point out any domino he
thinks of.
This is the way to do it: Tell him
you will count around the circle, touch
ing various dominoes, each touch
counting one. He must count your
touches, and when the number of spots
on the domino which he has thought
of equals 20 he must say STOP" The
domino last touched is sure to be the
one he had in mind.
Here is an example: Suppose he Sc
