NIAGARA'S APPLE CROP SMALL.
But the County VIII Make II Up by lts Tield
Of Peaches and PlmO.

LocKPoRr, Aug. 3l.-Nlagara county
expects to fall short in its crop OF apples.
But the county can send forth the cheering
promise that 1t will make amends by An over
flowing crop Of peaches and plums.
A full apple crop In Niagara county:
which stands fifth in apple orchard acreage
Of the counties Of the United states-two

where from 10000 10 2!oooooo barrels.
A really full crop; with all trees bearing
to their maximum capacity, has never been
witnessed, but It IL estimated that "a high
az 100 900 barrels OF flrst class and market
able apples have been produced hero. Those
figures wore approached last year. This
year the growers say there will not be one.

Local and visiting buyers who have looked
over tho field are inclined to take q more
optimistic view. and declare that the falling

II the buyers estimates are correct, the
county ought to produce about 100 900 bar.
rsls. A review Of orchards hare and thass
on which to base an average estimate SCENT
to bear out that contention. Many claim
that the yield will fall far short. Growers
arc not depressed by the prospect; becawe
last year their crop was enormous, and they
received comparatively small prices. This
year they expect to got double the prices
Of last year.
The acreage Of Niagara's peach or.

CENSUS the number Of orchards has In
creased rapidly. The estimate Of the crop
this year Varies from l,7So000 baskets 70
100000 baskets. Tho Yield this year will
eurpass anything ever known in Niagarss
county. Trees not carefully relieved Of

The demand for peach baskets Is causing
the basket factories to run day and night,
and happy is the grower who providently

Of these German officers added to military
skill the charm Of Roman culture, and q
social tact, which gave them admission
to the inner circle Of the Roman aristocracy.
There are signs that even In smaller things

by Honorius on the subject IN 40 leaves
no doubt that the rage for German fashions
was widespread, and that previous ediots

All thoughtful readers will concur in
the assertion with which the fret chapter
Of the fourth book Of this narrative begins,
that no part Of the inner life Of the fifth
century Of our era should excite greater
curiosity than the attitude Of the Romans
Of the West toward the invaders, and their
ideas a. to the future OF Rome. As
the student pores over the meagre ohron-
icles Of the times, he can hardly help ask
ing himself: What did these men think
about the real meaning Of the sack Of Rome
by Alaric the Visigoth, and later by Cen
serio the Vandal; Of the devastation Of the
provinces; Of the settlement OF visigoths.

ons yet tho credit Of defeating tho fierce
and crafty power which had reduced
all central Europe to vassalage must be
awarded to Roman daring and organization
The conclusion, then, which our author
reaches ID that the Germans wore not super
ior to the Romans In military skill and cour-
age. He goes on to show that the invaders
were not animated by any common purpose
or hatred Of Rome. Far from having any
common aim, they were hopelessly divided
among themselves, and are as often found
fighting for the empire as against it. They
frequently exhibited eagerness to be taken
into its service, and many Of their chiefs
like the vidgoth Alaric and Ataulphus, had
no higher ambition than to be appointed
to high military command. On the Roman
side there was a oorrespon ding readiness
to employ barbarian forces in war. In

mind there is but LITTLE. doubt that there
were in the last pagan generation, men who
held more spiritual oreed and had aspira-

possessed by their ancestors, who con-
quered Carthage and Macedonia. But

write. the influence, OF smollett and his
imitators was still powerful; Burke's OBJ

nobody had yet made any emphatic pro-
test against the beastliness Of Swift or the

went on and the tone OF society was elevated
Smiths alterations from good taste grew

a smile have only to open the book at ran

equally good. IN his rivaie letters and
table talk Smith instinotlvely descended
to the level Of his correspondent or bis
company. He was capable Of puns which,
in his better moments. he denounced a.
samples Of a kind Of wit essentially spurious.
In spite, for instance, Of his own protests
against mere play upon words. he de-
scribed his clerk as "a man Of great amen-ity
Of disposition. He oomplimented his
friends, Mrs. Tighe and Mrs. C,,iYe. as "the

no ono would loose" His fondness for Lord
