Obituary..

Anna G. Belts, youngest daughter of
Conrad Belts, was born November Is,
1915, in Wittenberg, Germany, and came
to this country with her parents when
about IL years of age. The family set
tied near Baldwinsvile, n. Y, and while
there Anna was converted at the age of
Ii and joined the Presbyterian church.
The next year she moved with the family
to Waverly, Van Buren, county. Later
she went to Minneapolis, Minnesota,
and April 8, 1896, she was married to
Josiah Hopkins and came to Cassopolis,
where she has since made her home.
Her membership was placed in the Pres
byterian church aud her active interest
in its work has been greatly appreciated.
For the past 10 years Mrs. Hopkins
has been troubled with organic weakness
of the heart and despite ali that could
be done for her relief she gradually failed
and passed away Tuesday morning, June
-, in the full enjoyment of her peace
with God.
She leaves a husband and one sister
who mourn her as a conscientious and
affectionate wife and sister, while many
will miss her as a true and faithful
| friend.
! The remains we're laid to rest in the
Waverly burying ground north of Paw

lily repose.

p..I vain. of College Education.

We are apt to overestimate the value
of an education received from books
alone. A large part of the value OF a
college education comes from the social
intercourse OF the students, the re-en-
forcement. the buttressing Of character,
by association Their faculties are
sharpened and polished by the attri-
ton of mind with mind and the pitting
of brain against brain, which stimulate
ambition. brighten the ideals and open
up new hopes and possibilities. Book
knowledge is valuable, but the knowl-
edge which comes from mind inter
course is invaluable.O. s. Marden III

An Eastern Estimate of Luther Bur-
banks Value.

In the Country Calendar for July,
there appears an article on Burbanks
value to fruitgrowers, from which we
quote as follows:
Experiments in hybrdizing are fasci-
mating 1t Is in this way that new plants
and new varieties are most largely pro-
duced But for the improvement of old
varieties which are of worth, by the indi-
vidual orchardst for his own locality,
budding and grating have large and IN
developed possibilities 1t is with the
gardener an axiom that the scion is in
variably true, while the Seeding sport
is not always true to the type.
"The fruitgrower who selects the best
tree of his King of Tompkins county or
chard, and gratis from it on a Northern
Spy TO secure to his King apple trees the
longevity and vigor of the Northern Spy
stock, employs method which promises
to be Of more advantage to him CONNER
cially than a result obtained by hybridi-
Zation.
Interesting and striking as are the
novelties, worthy as is Mr.. Burbank's in.
uuSIT1 duu dCllltNtlutuls lllb lIullBIOW'
ers and gardeners of the eastern United
States have more confidence in the mar
ket value of varieties developed in the
East and under eastern conditions.
"While the experiments and achieve
ments of Mr.. Burbank are receiving sc
much attention, it is, perhaps, not amis'
to remind the lay reader that the bes
varieties of fruits and vegetables for The
eastern market have originated in thu
East; for instance, the Concord grape
introduced by r. w. Ball of Concord
Mass, which alone will outweigh in valu,
by its very wide general distribution
and use, all we have gotten from Cali
fornia.

Back for His Umbrella.

Joseph NJ. Stoddart, whose acquaint-
ance among authors and artists ex-
tends over two hemispheres and half
a century of activity, tells this story
of a meeting with Edgar Saltus, novel
ist and wit, in London a few months
ago. Il had just arrived in London
from Liverpool, and was hurrying
down Fleet street, when | came face
TO face with Saltus," said Mr.. Stodart.
"He drawled an inquiry as to where
| was hurrying from, and ! remarked
that was just over from New York.
And I'm just going back, re.

What Nexfe

The horticulturalist often feels he
is worse burdened with insect pests
than are others differently en-
gagged. but such is not the case. When
destruction TO railroads is threatened
by an insect dieting on ''T' rails we
naturally enquire what next?' The
following interesting item of news
taken from the Cologne Gazette
should fortify us against surprise at
anything:
1.-THE existence has just been dis
covered of detestable microbe which
feeds upon iron with as much glut-
tony as the phylloxera upon the vine.
Some time ago the greatest consterna-
ton existed among the engineers EN-
ployed on the railway at Hagen by
the accidents occurring always at the
same place, proving that some terri
BILE defect must exist either in the
material or the construction of the
rails. The German government di-
rected an inquiry to be made, and a
commission of surveillance to be
formed for the purpose of maintain
ing constant watch at the spot where
the accidents-one of them attended
with loss of life-had occurred. II
was not, however, until after six
months had elapsed that the surface
of the rails appeared to be corroded,
as if by acid, to the extent of one
hundred yards. The rail was taket
up and broken, and it was literally
followed out by thin grey worm t
which the qualification of "railover
ous' was assigned, and by which
name it is TO be classed in natura
history. The worm is said to be tive
centimetres in length and of the siz'
of the prong of a silver fork in cir
conference. 1t is of light gre,
color and on the head carries two lit
tie glands filled with a corrosive Sc
erection which is elected every 10 min
utes upon the iron. This liquid rem
ders the iron soft and spongy and o
the color of rust, and it is then greed
lily devoured by the insect. There /
no exaggeration, says the official re
port of the commission, in the asser
ton that this creature for its kind /
one of the most voracious, for it ha
devoured 50 Kilograms of rail in
! fortnight , -

Crockett and the Mules.

When Davy Crockett sat in the ma
tional legislature as a representative
of the state Of Texas he had many
clashes with men Of more education
but less wit than himself. 1t is told
of him that one day while standing in
front of his hotel on Pennsylvania
avenue. a drove OF mules trotted by
under the custody Of an overseer from
one Of the stock farms in Virginia. A
Congressman from Boston, who was
standing near by, attracted Crockett's
attention to the unusual sight, saying:
Hello there, Crockett; here's lot
of your constituents on parade. Where
are they going?"
The celebrated hunter looked at the
animals with a quizzical glance, and
