"A GOOD Oh TLOOK
FOR ALL FRUITS
Peaches the Only Possible Ex-
ception to Prediction
Made.
"A GREAT APPLE HARVEST
SYLVESTER JOHNSON FORMER
LY OF WAYNE COUNTY TELLS
OF THE PREVAILING cONDI-
TIONS IN INDIANA.

Sylvester Johnson, formerly Of Dub
lin, now a resident of Irvington, who
is q recognized authority in horticul-
ture, is pleased with the present out
look for fruit for the coming season.
Il think" said he, there will be a
plentiful supply of apples, pears,
plums, cherries-all kinds of fruit
grown here except peaches. The dam
age done to the peach buds was caus
ed by the winter being warm instead
of cold. BY this / mean that the
warm weather brought forward the
buds, and the cold weather, the little
we had, killed them.
THE apple crop was short last year
and for that reason the trees are like
ly to bear better this year. But more
than that the winter has been special
ly favorable for apples and pears be-
cause it has not been severely cold,
only falling a notch or two below
zero on one or two occasions There
seems to be renewed interest in apple
growing in Indiana. Much of this in
terest is turned toward Brown and
HeISHDOTlUS COuHllco LOW
lands in those counties will attract
fruit growers. There are fine opportu-
mites for apple growing and there
should be large peach orchards. The
only trouble in Brown county has
been the lack of facilities for getting
the fruit to market-not a railroad in
the county.
To Interest Farmers in Fruit.
About the last of this month and
early in May series of meetings will
be held in various places of the state
to interest farmers in fruit raising.
Indiana, instead Of buying apples out
side the state, ought to be able to sup
ply her own people and have a sur
plus for export.
Indications are that the cherry
crop will be large and good. There
will be raspberries and all small
fruits in abundance. | think this will
be banner year for strawberries.
The mild winter and the large fall of
snow have given the vines all the
needed protection"

The Coming Airship.

We should hesitate about turning up
our noses at the fat, impotent flying
machine which, though it now sticks
closer to the earth than poor relation
to a rich uncle, may some day force
Us to turn up our noses to see it as 1t
condescends to look down on us.
Tall oaks from little acorns grow,
and possibly tall flights may yet grow
from big, unwieldy balloons. You new
er can tell, and even If you did tell
who could swear that what you told
was so?
1t Is only ten years ago that the auto
mobile picked itself up bodily by the
tires and lifted itself out of the toy
class, and who can tell but what the
flying machine may give itself similar
treatment? Then, again, the future
looks like the inhabitants of Africa
when we remember that balloons have
been about in the same state Of mind
ever since the memory of the oldest In
habitant.

A GIANT LOG RAFT.

Its Voyage of Nine Thousand Miles
Across the Pacific.
The construction of giant log raft
for towing across the Pacific from San
Francisco to Shanghai. China, calls
attention to the skill that has been
reached in building RATS by the Ium-
bermen of the Pacific coast. This Is
the first time towing logs across the
ocean that separates America and
Asia has been attempted. The voyage
Is one of about 5000 miles, and the
raft to make it has been constructed
with great care out of about 10000 600
feet of spars and spiling bound togeth-

CHANCE

Unto the music made by Chance
The brightest in the world must dance:
Unto ur pet and polished plan
Chance ties a bright and polished can.
And when we feel ouned UP and strong
Chance plays horse with US right along.
When we have laid our plans to get
A lot of fishes in our net
Chance very rudely comes along
And with the utmost nonchalance
Upsets the schemes we cooked with care
And leaves as dangling in the air.
You see a fellow big as noon
And pulled UP like toy balloon:
He thinks his great and massive brain
Alone his progress can explain.
Chance put him there, and II will call
Some day and hand him out a fall.
We take fiier on the crop;
Chance boosts the price or lets II drep.
We put our money In q show:
Chance kills the thing or makes II e.
The wise men tell as In advance:
We take a wife-we take a chance.
Chance rules the camp, the court, u
grove.
The barracks and the kitchen stove:
Our very brightest dreams II halts
And makes our plans turn so-nersaults.
Though at its mandates we may sce0.
II shows us just where we get on.

broke about his middle and there, since
he could go no farther, sat shaking his
sword and shouting:
Fear not! We follow! We follow!'
in such voice Of thunder that even
through the wind and across the ever
widening space of foam his words may
have reached the ship. At least Rosa

tossed up her arms as though in token.
Then the great sail filed, the oars
were drawn in, and the vessel swept
away swiftly across the dancing waves

She couldn't make a custard pie,

Nor put a wash out on the line.
Nor sweep, nor make a bed.
She couldn't boil potatoes right,
Nor just plain hash prepare,
Nor turn a plate of toast out crisp
Nor cook a beefsteak rare.
Not one of these was in her line;
She wasn't built that way.

The course Of a speech, said that the
growth Of railroad ton mileage during
tae last ten years had been 40 per
cent while the growth of the rail
roads power to handle it had been
only ID per cent. SO that however

improved and developed it was made
palpably clear that they would be
unequal to the emergency.

Senator Platt Of New York Is said
to have his resignation from the
United States Senate ready for filing
ing with Governor Higgins IN
creasing age and domestic troubles
which have overtaken him, are adj
vanced as the motives prompting
his action, but it Is more than
probable that his party have tired
Of him and through their leaders
have pressed the resignation upon
him. Whatever the reasons, Sena-
tor Platt could well have been dis
pensed with many moons ago, for
all the service he has been to his
state or the country at large Now
if Senator Depew viii follow suit
New York will at least have an op-
portunity of resuming her once
powerful position in the Senate
chamber.
