have seen during my three weeks stay in RedlandS, and what I saw while crossing the desert, am an enthusiast for government irrigation on the arid plains of our dear country. The people of Redlands have high standard of citizenship, and bend all their energies to make an ideal place for a home
 The town is not yet 20 years old, and the early colonists came mostly from New England, and large contingent of them from New Haven. At the outset they declared it should be a clean town. There should be no saloons or any place allowed for inn moral purposes. There are no saloons, but they have fine churches, hotels and public halls. It is church-going people, and as the President of the Board of Trade said to me-it is not 10 per cent men and 90 per cent wom- en, but everybody almost goes to church cn Sunday. Their schools are of high standard and the beauty and convenience of the school buildings bespeak good public taste. A long and we'll established trolley line covers city limits. Water pipes through the streets supply all the homes with good water. The houses are lighted with electricity, and there is almost an un- broken view of we'll kept lawns, ex- tensive flower beds and delicate shrub bery. We'll selected libraries are found in almost every home, and the social and intellectual life of the place may be called ideal. There is not that loaf ing and wasting of time on the busi- ness streets that is to be seen where saloons are licensed, that tempt men to waste both time and money. The streets are wide and cross each other at right angles, miles in length, reach ing from the open at the north to the foot hills on the south, and from the on the west. Shade trees line the streets on either side. They are the palm, the gravilla, the pepper and the eucalyptus. The pepper and the euca- lyptus are natives of Australia. They are rapid growers when bountifully supplied with water, and there is one eucalyptus tree on Smiley Heights that has been growing only 13 years and POW measures 100 feet in height. Standing in clusters they run very tall ana slim and in 10 years will cut a tie stick at the butt. Sometimes at 10 years old tbey are cut off about 10 feet from the ground, and then in three years they will have a spreading top that makes a graceful form of thick dark green foliage. Calla lilies, roses, carnations and hot house plants are to be seen in profusion; birds are singing galore, and everything makes us think we are in midsummer, while suppose you in Newtown are shivering in the March winds, and picking your way through the mud or over the hubs, and will continue to do so for four or more weeks to come.-[ B. L. Johnson.

JOHN KEATS, POET.

THE LITERARY CIRCLE GOES ON ITS EASY WAY, s1PP1NG THE SWEETS FROM THE WORLDS LITERATURE THE NEXT MEETING EASTER MON- DAY, APRIL 4.
The Newtown bee., 1904-04-01

DAY, APRIL f.
 Through the blackness of a moon less night. near the vernal equinoctial storm, an even score of folks, either having literary bent or desiring to look wise when things literary are mentioned, gathered and, as usual, passed most delightful evening. March 21. Mrs Hurd Hewitt and her sister, Miss Hawes, acted the part of hostesses; and their large parlor, with it's room for a wide-extended circle, formed just the place for such meet ing. More and more those who attend feel how much in debt they are to Prof Ross Jewell for his willing gift of time and talent. Though, as he pours out his comments and indulges in his di- gressions, the wonder grows that one small head can carry all he knows, yet those who only stand and wait are quite content to imbibe little of this knowledge and so relieve MT Jewell of a part of his intellectual burden.
 What, in word, shall we say of Keats? He was mean enough to say that the generality of women were like children, better to give sugar-plums to than spend ones time with; but we don t want to remember that. Tenny- son is "Keats writ large;;" that is a good thing to remem Der. Tennyson is what Keats would have been, had his days been heightened out; but he died at 26, and what can you expect from not much more than boy? He was not a pronounced Christian; but he did not know Byron's nastiness nor Shelley's rabid atheism. ''Here lies a man whose words were writ in water" /" he requested that be carved upon his tombstone as the summing up of his differently and willingly place the name of Keats among the immortals.
 Miss May Hoyt began the evenings entertainment by reading "Lines on a Memorial Tablet;" Mrs Hurd Hewitt read 'St Agnes Eve," and Miss s. Elizabeth Goodwin "Ode to Night ingale." Miss Loretta Houllhan very nicely read some scattered stanzas o1 "Isabella" and filled in the gaps by her own recital Of that tale or broken hearted love. The "Ode to Grecian Urn," read by Miss Eleanor Northrop, was Keats high-water mark: in ode writing none was greater than he Miss s. J. Scudder read carefully pre- pared paper on the life of Keats, whicE showed that, like Shelley and Byron he drank from cup of poetic inspira- tion because he also drank from cuI of deep personal grief. The evening closed pleasantly with music, Miss Ma bel L. Taylor on the piano and Miss S.
 Elizabeth Goodwin on the mandolin, playing Gavotte's "Wild Rose," anc for an encore "All through the Night.
 "Angels Ever Near," sung by MT anC Mrs Arthur J. Smith, Miss s. Eliza
 bethuGoodwin and Ms Hurd Hewitt
 with serenade by Mrs Hewitt, Mis-! Goodwin and Mrs Smith received { round of hearty applause.
 The poet, Tennyson, is next in the line; but there is so much of him One year would be necessary to get into thu center instead of one evening, so thu company will only look into "The ldyls of the King" The meeting will be held at the home of Miss Scudder Monday evening, April f, at 7.3 O clock.

1uf CHRISTMAS SEASON

Christmas time approaches. The sea-
son is now recognized throughout most
civilized lands as period Of rest during
which men turn from the pursuit Of
wealth and desire for gain to listen to
the message proclaimed by the bells,
sPeace on earth, good will to men"
Every Christmas gift presented in the
spirit of love. represents message of
tenderness bearing the tidings Of JOY.
At this season if at no other, an effort is
made to throw upon the dark scenes Of
earth the subdued, though warming
light of the good will spirit.
brief season from the every day life
of selfshness in order to take time to
wish little Joy to every fellow being.
Now there is the desire, which takes
practical form. to see that all are furnish
ed with warmth and food. Now there
is an effort made to bring some new
thing into the life of each one SO that
there will be brief respite from care
and anxiety. Even those who do not
find in Christmas religious festival,
still must admit that it is of immense
ethical and moral benefit to society. 1t
is the spirit of peace overcoming harsh
ness. The spirit of giving overcoming
hardness. The spirit Of altruism
smoothing rough places and making the
highway of life more smooth and sunny.

RusTEp wheat is not necessarily I'M
fit for seed, according to Professor H.
L. Bolley, the state botanist of North
Dakota. Rust is not transmitted by
the seed, and if the grains are hard and
full weight they will make suitable
seed. Seed from badly rusted pieces is
apt to be light weight, and this will pro-
duce weak plants, with little power to
resist the rustinfection.
