The Gentle Reader.

The young girl, forbidden the saloon
and cafe, muddles her brains with
books instead of with drink. From
the twenty to fifty new novels year
that she reads it is doubtful if she
obtains a single new idea, a single
thought worth remembering. She
reads not to think, but to save her
self the trouble of thinking. The
book that could give her any real
knowledge of life would not perhaps
be found on shelves of the circulating
library She reads, one after the
other, a monotonous procession OF
love stories, where impossible young
men with nothing else to do in life,
make impossible love to impossible
perfect women. l talked with sue
cessful novelist once. He can be de-
lightfully cynical, even at his own
expense.
"The recipe for a successful novel,
he explained, rs to draw your heroine
SO that every woman reader can
imagine herself the part. Sketch
your hero a vague framework into
which she can put the picture of her
particular young man. Let them
make love on every other page and
she feels almost as good as the real
thing. Jerome X. Jerome in Won
ans Home Companion.

Bulletin No. Z of the Wisconsin
State Horticultural society, has been
issued. 1t is entitled Buying Nursery
Stock and is the work of Professor F.
Cranefield, secretary of the society.
In procuring fruit trees, plants,
Towering shrubs, etc, the farmer as
well as the city dweller is dependent
on the nurseryman, says the bulletin.
On the farm the grain seeds and often
the grass seeds used are home grown,
but it is not practicable for the farmer
TO produce his nursery stock. In
the case of fruit trees a knowledge of
grating is necessary as we'll as the
after care and cultivation of the trees
for two or three years or until large
enough to set in permanent places.
The professional fruit-grower may pos.
sibly do this with profit, but it IS not
advisable to combine farming with
nursery work when but small guam
titles of stock are required.
For the purpose of aiding prospect
i've buyers the following suggestions
and fruit lists are given.
When to Buy.
Buy in the winter for early spring
delivery. Trees bought for fall de-
livery must either be planted at
once or "heeled in" While root
growth may begin to some extent in
fall planted trees the drying and freez-
ing which the tgeca must Withstand for
probably six no tbs is apt to result in
injury. Trees delivered late in the
fall are usually "heeled in" by the
buyer, the trees partially or wholly
buried until spring,
Nurserymen as a rule are provided
with storage sheds or cellars where
the trees and plants, dug late in the
fall, are stored with roots kept moist
and the temperature Of the storage
room held near the freezing point.
Here the stock is held dormant and
we'll protected and if forwarded to the
buyer early in the spring and planted
as soon as received, better results will
be obtained than by fall planting or
'n1eing in"

Where TO Buy.
reliable firm, on

Buy of a reliable firm, one having "A
permanent place Of business and a
reputation to maintain. If buyers Of
nursery stock would proceed as in
other business transactions there
would be fewer complaints of fraud.
A farmer. for instance, would be con
sidered lacking in ordinary business
sagacity who would buy live stock Of
an agent or firm wholly unknown to
him, and yet that is what many do in
buying nursery stock. Representa-
tives of reliable firms will have no diff
ficulty in proving their reliability.

A season of pienteons production of immense industrial activity and great financial operations is apparently clos ing with a record holiday trade begin ning earlier than usual.
 Rains or snow in the Northwest, es- pecfaIly heavy precipitation followed by cold weather in the Ohio and Mis- sissippi valleys, have temporarny checked trade and collections, but the advent of settled weather has given d

 'sWeather conditions have retardeo trade in reasonable staple line of mer- chantdise, but holiday gods have begun ko move unusually early and in vol une that promises satisfactory results. Wholesale business is maintaining bet tAr business than last year and further Improvements are noted in collections.
 From the leading manu1acturinS points, come reports of full employ ment of machinery; yet deliveries are much less prompt than desired and ln- adequate railway facilities receive large share of the blame. Consumers Of iron and steel seek deliveries so constantly that there Is little prospect that producers will overtake orders; It seeIns more probable they will fall

Notwithstanding new Nrecords of out put and shipments by coke ovens, there Es 6 disposition to ask still higher prices for next years deliveries

Attention is paid to the Fluctuations in raw material, the gov erning factor being the time at which the goods can be delivered.
 Activity in the hide market IS fully maintained, most western packers be- ing fully sold up to current selling. The only noteworthy change in the leather situation was pronounced ad- vance in price of light weight belting butts, some tanners asking 50 cents, and actual sales are noted at 49 cents. Narrow fluctuations have character i9ed the grain market.
