whose life, as reflected by the
wrinkled kindly face, must have
been full of hardships and sor-
rows, yet withal blessed, with
such comforting assurances : as
are vouchsafed only to those who
are tried and not found wanting.
Eyes, madam; what can | do
for you? I'm the editor
"Please, sir, you didn'tsay any,
thing about Johns death in your
paper" she said.
"But who is John?"
"Don't you know John? Why.

He was such good boy and was
always kind to me. l don't know
what I'll do without him." and
the weak voice broke and the
faded blue eyes filled with tears.
eyes, grandma, we all knew
John, but you tell us about his
death,' said the scribe, kindly
unwilling to pain her by admit
ting that he was not acquainted
with "John."
"John was my son, and when
his father died there was nobody
left but me and him, and for ten
years he was working early and
late out there on the farm. We
had hard time getting along,
but always managed somehow.
John wanted to enlist and go to
Cuba, but, of course, he wouldn't
leave me alone. know'ed it al
most broke his heart, and when
the boys in the neighborhood all
enlisted, tried to get him to go,
anyhow, but he wouldn't do it.
About a month ago he came home
from the field one day with S
high fever and took to his bed.
The doctor said from the very
start that he couldn't live be-
.
cause he had worked too hard
and run his system down.
"He died day before yester-
day and we buried him yester-
day. / didn't see no notice of
his death in the paper, so | lowed
you didn't know"
There was a long silence, brok-
en- only by the tick of the clock
and noise of the busy world
outside. The old Office cat quit
humming her queer little tune. to
come and rub affec6onately
against the old woman's 4dress.
The tough Office kid, who had
been diligently pretending to
read an editorial from a paper,
held upside down, coughed and
shifted suspiciously from behind
it and contrary to well estab-
lished precedent, failed to put in,
or offer any characteristic sug-
gestions.
The foreman, who with proof
in hand, had opened the door
hurriedly paused upon the thresh-
old to listen; then closed it
softly and tipped away, rubbing
cinder out of his eye, while the
editor gazed out of the window,
across the bleak housetops, with
a blurred vision and thought of
many things, which the simple
story-told in simply way, with
no intention'of exciting pity-had
stirred from the seemingly dead
ashes of memory, and caused to
become glowing embers on the
tomb of a glowing past. And
when the old woman left. she
carried with her the assurance
that John" would not be for
gotten and the next issue of the
paper contained such an euIogy
on a plain, simple, honest, every
day hero, who had performed
his duty, even though it brought
neither fame or wealth, and such
tribute to manliness and un-
selfish devotion, as must have
caused the sad heart of his old
mother to thrill with pride and
gratitude. -Denison Herald.

APPLES IN COLD STORAGE.

Rush the Apple From Tree to Ware
h0use-BOxes Better Phan Barrels.
Diseases like the seab. the bitter rot
and the pink mold with which apples
may be affected spread with unusual
rapidity during delay in storing the
fruit in hot weather. Too much EN-
phaSis cannot be placed on the adyan-
tages Of quick storage after the fruit
is harvested if the apple is to be re-
moved from the storage warehouse
satisfactorily.
In a well ventilated warehouse in
which the humidity is properly regulat-
ed the apple develops as fine aromas
and fiavors as it does in common stor-
age.
Apples generally keep better in boxes
than i'll barrels This is especially
true when the falls are hot and the
fruit has ripened during a delay in
storage. The influence of the pack
age in this respect is greatest in va
rieties that ripen quickly The bulk
of fruit is larger in the barrel than in
the box and the contents of the former
cool off more slowly after the package
is placed in the warehouse. The ripcH-
ing is therefore checked more quickly
when the fruit is packed in Il box. IN
the smaller package it can be stored
for long time after it has begun To
mellow, but in barrel it would pc
bruised in this condition from its own
weight
4 closed package is generally prefer
able to a ventilated package. as the
fruit IS likely to shrive If exposed
to the air for any length of time. The
shriveling OF the fruit however is in
fuenced by the degree Of moisture and
circulation Of the air in the warehouse
and where these factors are properly
regulated the ventilated package may
be used adyantageously with varieties
that need cooling quickly.
The life Of the fruit is often pro-
longed from two to three months by q
fruit wrapper. and the Spread Of dis
eases from apple to apple is made
more difficult. For the finer grades OF
apples that are to be packed and stored
in boxes Il fruit wrapper $ most desil-
able, as it not only adds 10 the life Of
the fruit. but it prevents bruising
and retains It's glossy brilliant appear

The roots of the dahlia may be left

A Suggestion by the Lecturer of
Michigan State Grange.
At least one meeting during the year
! of every subordinate grange casxs,rof-
itably be given over to the discussion
of the rural schools. There should be
an intimate relationship existing be-
tween the grange and the school. Pa
irons should feel Il special interest i'll
the work of educating the young, SO
many of whom make the district
school their only college. Every grange
should have its committee Oh visitation
of schools and this committee should
be composed of the most intelligent
and progressive members. They should
know by observation just what the To-
cal school is doing whether its teacher
is qualified not only but adapted to the
| needs of that particular school. Some
teachers never fit in nicely anywhere,
some tit everywhere. When there is Il
misfit successful work cannot be done
AS a rule. the average farmer or aver
age citizen. whether farmer or not,
pays too little heed TO the management
and needs of the school The progress
sive farmer and especially the progress
sive granger will find delight in this
work, and he will not fail to make it a
subject of discussion in the grange
The following suggestive programme
is furnished by the Michigan state lee
turer. and of course it is merely sug-
gestive. It will be varied to suit condi-
lions.

The holes n which rose plants are
set should be made so deep and wide

This is all the protection needed for
the perpetuals and hybrid teas, and it
should be repeated annually as soon as

Michigan and Primary Reform.

The grange in Michigan is very ac-
tive just now over primary reform.
The legislative committee has issued
an open letter to the patrons in Michi-
gan upon certain issues In state affairs.
They are sending to every Pomona and
subordinate grange in the state ques-
ton blank, which is to be forwarded
to each nominee of all political parties
requesting that he fill it out and return
the same to the county legislative COM
mittee. When these are so returned
they are to be read in subordinate
oranges without comment These ques-
tons bear on primary reform as advo-
Gated by the Michigan state grange
In this circular to candidates the COM
mittee says:
I've expect positive and direct re-
plies. An evasiye answer or failure to
reply within q reasonable time will be
taken to mean that you are opposed to
the passage Of this measure Upon the
character OF your reply will largely de-
pend our attitude toward YOU

therefor, can advocate its passage

A Beautiful Degree

The sixth degree of the Order of Pa

ferred by the state grange in regular
or special session It is not usual to
confer this degree excepting at the an
nual meeting of a state grange. but it
was done in Pennsylvania not long
ago. A class of sixty-five took the
degree. State Master Hill of that
state predicts that the time will soon
come when enthusiastic patrons will
insist on having the opportunity pro-
vided them near home for being in
vested With this degree so they will
not have TO wait until the state grange
session.
