that there are papers dealing with i'm.

THE SUPERIORITY
OF HORTICULTURE.

When we consider the small cost
of irrigating an acre of orchard
even if the water is pumped from a
well-and the greater certainty of
the crop, and the great superiority
of such crop in the semi-arid orchard
1 think the profit will far outweigh
the cost of artificial watering.
The crops of horticulture, the APP
pies, pears, peaches, plums, cherries,
grapes, and berries, are worth much
more, acre for acre, than the crops
of agriculture-the cereal foods, the
forage, and the animal food products
Let us consider the items. A crop of
corn is a good one that yields fifty
bushels-3,OOO pounds of grain-to
the acre of land. That is worth $50,
half of which goes for planting, cul-
ture and harvest. The net yield of
the acre is SIS. An acre of apple
orchard, in full bearing, will produce
1000 bushels of apples, or $4,000
pounds of product if it is a good crop.
Let us call the apples worth 1 cen a
pound-the same value as the corn.
They will always be worth as much
as this if well handled. But we need
not reckon of more than 10 to IL
per cent of gross value for the cost
of cultivation and harvesting. Call

absent. Having discovered at once
that many of those attending the re-
citations have been taught the pure
Castillian'' PRONUNCIATION of certain
words, which pronunciation does
not obtain in common usage outside
of certain provinces in Spain, Mr..
Hamilton called the attention of the
members of the class to that fact on
several occasions. In order to pro-
cure more definite information on the
subject from some reliable source.
Mr.. Hamilton wrote to the editor of
of Modern Mexico published in the
City of Mexico, and a few days ago
received the following answer from
Mr.. Paul Hudson, who, in addition to
being the editor of that magazine, is
also the manager of the Mexican
| Herald.
1T is only in Spain where the rule
for properly pronouncing the CO. be-
fore "e' and 81" and III 81" that
is, like the hard sound of our .th'
as in throw" and the ZIP thus,
ailyeay, is observed. In Mexico, as
well as all other Central and
South American countries where the
Spanish language is spoken, the sc"
before sc" and "i" is given invariably
the pronunciation of So and the '.ll''
that of aiyeay; this extends to all
classes of people. AS a matter of
fact, l am personally acquainted with
people having been born from, and
brought up by Spanish parents in
Mexico, and they, like the Mexi-
cans do, as the Castillian pronuncia.
ION is not taught in the school here,
whether Government or private. /
may d for your information, that
the majority of the people here
make no distinction in the p~ronuncia-
ton of the "b' and ''v": they pro-
ounce them both alike b, and in no
few cases they give the sound of v
to b, for instance, "havia" (had).
Properly speaking it is not owing to
ignorance but to a mere habit, or
better say carelessness, as When they
use those letter in writing, and the
same applies to C and z, they employ
hem in the proper way.
