Burglar Reproves Doctor.

A dispatch from Yonkers last night says:
A burglar with a distinctly humorous vein
visited the historic home Of DR.. Joseph
Hasbrouck on North Broadway in Dobbs
Ferry last week. and agreeable to the in
Structfons left in a note the doctor failed
to notify the police until yesterday. DR..
Hasbrouck lives in the historic old man
sion where Washington met Rochambeau.
When he woke on the morning of Septem-
Der he found that some silverware q re-
volver and trinkets and the keys to his SAT-
were missing. In the dining room he found
the following note:
Dear Sir: Why the dickens don't you hire
a man to look after your things while you
are away? l read in the papers the other
day that the police blame the public for
all the burglaries. and 1t is right 1t is
your own carelessness; you can only blame
yourself for It, 1t is no use to tell the po-
lice. Don't bother them they have enough
to do already. l dassent sign my name.''
The keys to the safe later were found In
the Doctors brothers home next door.

from 500 to $50 an acre. Young apple trees
from the nursery cost 10 cents each and
cents is paid for digging the holes and set
ting them out, an average of sixty-seven
trees to the acre. 1t Is necessary to keep
the soil loose, so as to retain the moisture.
Therefore the orchard must be plowed and
narrowed two or three times year. 1rri-
cation is not necessary. The rainfall will
average 26 inches year after year. This
year there has been 80 inches already.
While the trees are young and before they
begin to bear it is customary to plant corn.

bles between the rows to pay living

pippins bear in 81 xyears; Newtown pip
pins in eight years.
The orchards around here are mostly
owned by Americans. The labor is fur
nished by Slavs, who do most of the pack
ing and shipping Of the fruit. 1t is GUS
tomary to sell the fruit on the trees, and
the buyer picks, wraps and packs 1t to suit
himself There are several Slavonians in
the business. Some of them have done very
well and have large and profitable bust
ness. For example, ]. S. Menasco has an
orchard of forty acres about six miles from
Watsonville which costs him about 81 500 a
year to cultivate. Last year and the year
before he sold his crop on the trees for
Sc. 500. which netted him $4,000 Micvich Il
Co.. who bought the crop. will pick 1t by
hand and haul 1t to their packing house.
where the apples will be sorted by Slavon-
in tissue paper and carefully packed and
Grated. From the forty acres they will fill
about $1,000 boxes (three boxes to the bar
reD, which will sell on board the cars for
cash to the agents of commission houses in
New York and London for about 80 cents a
box. Last year, when apples were scarce,
the crop from Menasco's orchard sold for
81 a box, but this year prices are not so
good.
Strawberry land is worth from 500 to
$500 an acre and can be rented for $50 or
$50 an acre; but Il has to be irrigated. If
the natural rainfall is depended upon the
plants will not bear more than a month or
six weeks. If they are irrigated and prop
erly cultivated they will bear for nine
months of each year for four or five years.
There is SO much money in orchards that
the big ranches In this part of the country
are being cut up into FIVE and ten-acre
tracts. and sold to eastern farmers, who
come out here for the climate and an easy
life.
Demand for Labor.
Fruit-growing is not as hard work as or
binary farming and there is very little risk
or cause for anxiety, provided the soil is
well-tilled and the trees are looked after
The great difficulty is the scarcity Of labor.

The apples are shipped to London and

take Newtown pippins or anything but red

The remainder of the apple crop is sold

cars of fresh apples shipped to market, the
people of Jacksonville dry about 15O car
loads of apples, and even more apricots.
California produces all of the high-grade
apricots grown in the United States, but
most of them are dried and boxed before
shipment There are about 800 acres of
apricot orchards in the Pajara valley, with
perhaps 100000 trees and crop Of 5000
tons Of green fruit The greater part is
dried in the sun and shipped to Europe, an
annual total of about 800 tons, which brings
an average of cents pound on the cars.
About $50 tons of apricots are shipped fresh
in boxes to all parts of the country. Prunes
and cherries are also grown here In large
auantities-nearly / 600 tons of cured prunes
having been shipped from the Pajaro valley
In 1904.
Orchards Mostly Small.
The orchards are mostly small. Few ex-
coed 100 acres, while the average is prob
ably fifteen acres. Ten acres is considered
all any one man needs and more than one
man can attend to. Apples pay a profit OF
about $50 an acre; "cots." as they call
apricots here. about the same: while straw
berries and cherries pay $3.50 an acre, but
require great deal more attention than
the larger fruit.
Good apple land in the valley costs not
less than $3.50 an acre; in the foothills from
$50 to 500 an acre, and higher on the slopes

THE DISCOVERIES VOYAGE.
What Scott ard His Crew Suffered In
Search For South Pole.


Captain Robert I. Scott in his
book, ''The Voyage of the Discov-
cry" tells how in 1902 his party
penetrated farther south than men
had ever done before. Three of
them were laboriously working to-
ward the south with dogs and
sledges. In December Captain
Scott says that they were passing
from the hungry to the ravenous
condition. They could scarcely di-
vert their thoughts from food, and
the talk ran ON little else. Both on
Che march and at night they felt
This very badly, and in the middle
Of their sleep they would jump up
with the most distressing feeling of
emptiness and the knowledge that
it still wanted four or five hours to
breakfast time. About this time,
too, symptoms Of scuryy began to
make their appearance. This prob
ably was due to the character of tie
food. Breakfast consisted of penn
mican, biscuit and badly made tea,
and for lunch they had a small piece
of seal meat, half a biscuit and
eight or ten Jumps of sugar, and
their supper was equally frugal. SO
it is 10 wonder that they suffered
from "tood dreams" and other con
sequences of hunger. However, they
tried to keep Christmas day as well
as they could This is how they
spent Christmas in the extreme
south, somewhere about latitude
9112 degrees south:
"When we awoke to wish each

long line of cleaning coast line The
sunlight danced and sparkled in the
snow beneath our feet, and not
breath of WIND disturbed the sereni-
ty of the scene. 1t was a glorious
morning, but We did not stay to
contemplate it, for we had even
more interesting facts to occupy us,
and were soon inside the tent sniff

a large spoonful Of jam to follow

The kinu and His Valet

Louis Nv, king of France, had
for his valet Worthy individual,
though of grave disposition and but
little given to testing. One evening
as he was leaning over balcony
and waiting till his majesty should
retire to rest, louis XIV. came out
of his room, and, being in a frolic-
some mood, i'll becoming his dignity,
but tempted by the favorable atti-
tude of the valet, he dealt him a vio-
lent Slap on the back. The man
turned around to return the blow,
but on seeing the king he said,

Where Rain Never Falls.

There is perhaps no more curious
place on the Pacific seaboard than
lquique. 1t stands in region where
ram has never been known to fall
and where, as was remarked by Oar
win when he visited Iquique in 1885,
the inhabitants live like people on
board ship. These number about
$4,000, nearly all connected with
the staple industry of the port, due
to the development of the nitric in
dustry on the adjacent pampas. The
RAIN gauges at Lima, close to the
Pacific, record absolutely no rain
fall. There are several parts of the
earth where rain never falls. Such
are the Sahara, or great desert of
Africa, and considerable tracts of
Arabia, Syria, Persia, Tibet and
Mongolia in the old world, while in
South America the rainless districts
comprise narrow strips on the shores
of Peru, Bolivia and Chile and on
the coasts of Mexico and Guatema-
la, with a small district between
Trinidad and Panama on the coast
of Venezuela.
