MATURITY OF TIE APPLE.
turists Are Making in the Con-
dition of the Fruit.

Some of our horticulturists are maxi
ing a difference between the mature
apple and the ripe apple, though the
general public recognizes no such dis
tnction. We will let our horticultural
friends have their way, however. The
apple is mature when it has attained it's
full growth. 1t is not ripe till it has
become mellow with the operations of
sunlight, heat and time. The mature
apple is in the best shape for picking.
II it be left on the tree till it is fully ripe
1t will be short keeper, while if it is
picked at the time of maturity it will
keep for long time even under usual
farm conditions. AS different varieties
OF apples mature at different times it will
easily be seen that the mixed orchard is
hard one to keep track of. The old
way of harvesting was to begin to pick
the apples on a certain date and then
take all as they came, the long keepers
and the short keepers. the mature apples
and the immature apples.
The mature apple is a thing we have
to get acquainted with if we are to know
when it is mature. If it Is a Ben Davis.
1t is mature very late, so late indeed
that in the vicinity of Wisconsin it gen.
orally has to be picked before it is ma
ture. This is the reason the Ben Davis
has lost its reputation with many peo-
pie. Having been picked before it was
mature it could not follow out the usual
processes of ripening, and was always a
hard, poor favored apple. In regions
where 1t has had time to mature before
picked it develops into a fruit of good
flavor and texture, ripening naturally.
1t takes study of fruits to know
when each one natures, and this is a
subject that has up to the present time
received little attention. Men have
grown apples of certain varieties for a
long time and have never given the
question any consideration. The ma
turity Of the apple is at last coming
in for its share of discussion, and the
light is beginning to shine in a dark
place.-Farmers' Review.

Barber Buchanan soon had her hair
on the floor, and the woman had the APP
pearance of rakish-looking youngster.
Then she asked how she could get a false
mustache.
The barber notified the local police
and it was found that she was trying
to get $50 advanced on a handsome
watch and chain. Chief Griffins then
arrested her. She said that she lived
at Eastwood, Canada, with her IA

She said that her doctor had or
dered her hair cut so as to relieve her
of headache. She said she wanted
money because she had left home with
only dollar and had spent that. The
mustache, she said, she wanted for her
brother.
The woman's father was sent for and
he seemed to be much mystified by his

$4,000 farm and could not understand
why his daughter should figure in such

SHORT TALK ON GRATING
Some of the Underlying Principles of
the Process-Good and Poor
Unions.

In the work of grating the nature of
the union stock and scion is not very
generally understood. 1t is often a
mooted question among those who make
scientific study of pomology. A true
appreciation of the principles will prove
valuable in the practice Of horticulture
Some worthy and valuable research
along this line has been prosecuted at
the Massachusetts experiment station
under the leadership of Prof. f. a.
Waugh.
Prof. Waugh speaks of grating as
the union of scion with stock In the
vast majority of cases the prime object,
In fact the sole object of grating is to
secure this union. The nature of the

restrained the question.
Left alone in the studio, Orlopp stood
by the dying mans side and counted,
sometimes aloud, the minutes of waiting.
As the men of old-time strOve against
the fateS in the theaters of Greece, so in
some sense was he Contending with them
in that momentous year of the nineteenth
century. One by one the leaves of this
life before him were falling. a sigh, a
breath long drawn, might snap the thread
forever. And all mans skill must be
impotent before this great play of chance,
this jest of destiny ever CapriciOus when
humanity is her sport. OrlOpp feared
almost to turn away his eyes. Was
Sabine de Saint-Beuve in Paris, or had
she fled before the war? He listened with
ear intent for the sound of her steps.
Would she come too late? All, what
suspense, what desire that this life should
be given to him!
She came to the studio at SIX O. clock,
a yelled figure, but not so closely yelled
that the exquisite eyes and deep chest
nut hair of one of the most beautiful
women in Paris were hidden from them.
Pride had dealt churlishlv with the lovers
through the years of misunderstanding
but Sabine de Saint Beuve never had
ceased to carry GabrieTs image close to
her heart and to believe that the day
of harvest would reward her. Had the
summons come from the Gabriel of yes
terdav, from Gabriel the immortal, as
the critics declared, the master of salons
and the pride of France, she would have
answered it with her fathers disdain;
but when a sweet voice told her of
stricken man and darkened room and
life that ebbed away with the dying day,
then pride bent the head and the woman
within her spoke.
Il will go to him" she said. "My
place is at his side"
The darkened streets were full of the
returning soldiers as the two hurried TO
the Avenue de Jena. Bivouac fires had
been lighted upon the Champs-Elysees,
and their weird light shone ominously
around the gloom of the gathering night,
To Dolores this picture of woe seemed to
say that her GRAND had been vain.
Nothing, she believed, could avert that
omen of the dream. As the vision had
been so the truth must be. In this
dread fear she approached Gabriel's
house with the hesitation of one who
believes that the worst is to be learned.
Nor would Edmund Orlopp himself
dare to say what the truth was when he
met them with hand appraised and weary
face.
He has not moved since you left"
he said to Dolores, and then to Sabine
de Saint Beuve: AT least you have
done an act of charity in coming to us,
mademoiselle
Her answer was a look of anguish
from eyes which could not hide the truth
Half-veiled as she was, she kneIt at
Gabriels side and put her cold hand
upon his heart. He turned as a man
who is in sleep and breathed a full
breath again.
''Sabiner he mumured in a voice so
low that the whisper OF flowers had been
a greater sound.

few candles in the scenes hanging upon
the bare walls gave light to the tragic
scene. In an anterOOm the sobs OF an
old servant were to be heard. They had
not summoned the artists friends, nor
did any think of doing so. Perhaps they
did not understand that he was dying,
for Edmund Orlopp had confessed as
much to Dolores alone.
Twice upon the road Gabriel had
opened his eyes and spoken with resig-
nation which defed hope. Il am going
to dream again." he had said. You
can do nothing for me. l know it
there is one truth the skies cannot hide
from a man. Let me be, OrlopP. 1t IS
better So"
Or again: 81 shall die with France
If you were one of us, you would under
stand. Let me see the sun for the last
time, Orlopp. 1t shone upon me when
| painted the picture. There is a message
in the sunshine, Orlopp. May we not be
conscious Of it afterward? God knowsl
l am going to find it out tonight. -
They answered him with what gentle
words they could. Within the studio a
deadly pallor crept upon his face, and
the staring eyes of a dying man fell upon
the dream-picture his genius had painted.
THE voice within us never lies" he
said, raising himself upon his elbow and
gazing intently at the canvas; I've do
not dream in vain Every thought, every
act that is the impulse of an unknown
voice, should be sacred to us. You
cannot save me, OrlopP. There is the
decree. The night gave it to me; the
night will fulfill"
He sank back upon the pillow and
closed his eyes Premonition of his own
death was killing him, for he had suffered
no mortal wound. Loss of blood there
had been; but no organ was wounded
vitality, and Or1opp never doubted that
but for the picture of his dream he would
be living tomorrow
"He is dying for an idea he said to
Dolores. "What we can do has been

that it must be so when he spoke to us
in the studio yesterday. We only can
bow our heads to destiny"
He knew how much resignation cost
her and how her atfeCtionate nature
suffered for this man she had esteemed
so greatly, this genius whom the whole
civilized world would mourn tomorrow.
And yet he had confessed nothing but
the truth when he told her that his skill
could do no more Gabriel Sordelli lay
diving for his faith in his own handiwOrk
He would die because the figure of his
dream lay dead before him. Thus Or
lopp reasoned as he paced the gloomy
room and watched the pallid face Could
nothing yet be done? Was there no key
to this passing enigma of fate and doom !?
Desperately, as one tortured by doubt
and the omens of despair, he stood again
before the canvas, and studied every line
of it. With what transcendent skill it
had been painted! How perfect was the
light and shaded And the portrait itself
no other living artist could have sur
passed the truth or beauty of it. \
