AS showing still another service
which the department of agriculture
has rendered to the business interest :
of the country. we note in recent
bulletin that. solely due to the intro
duction of better methods Of collecting
turpentine. there has been an increase
of 40 per cent in the output. amount
ing to SlOO0,OO0. while the long leaf pine
forests of the southern states, from
which the American supply of turpen
tine is largely obtained. have at the
same time been saved from annihila-
ton. The cost to the department of
the service rendered in this instance
was $4,000. This is one of many cases
which go to prove that of all the money
that is being expended by the federal
government in any of it's departments
there is none which is fetching a larger
return on the investment than that
disbursed by the department of agri-
culture. For this reason pressure
should be brought to bear on our con-
gressmen to make appropriations for
this branch of the government work as
generous as possible.

QUAINT OLD HOUSE.
Believed to Have Been Built and DC
cupied in 1852.

Darby, Pa. Sept. 17.-Doing service
although weather-beaten by the
storms of 226 years, and of the quaint
style Of architecture of the early
Colonial period Of Pennsylvania, the
oldest house in Darby is pointed out
to visitors.
The dwelling is located on Main
street, between the century old Quaker
meeting house and the ancient library.
which was founded in 1743. There is
10 mistaking the identity of the house.
There is none other like it in Delaware
county. 1t is built of frame. with
heavy oak shutters. with a crescent cut
1t the top for ventilation and with a
quaint little porch of two feet protrud-
ing in front of the house.
1t is two stories and half high, and
with a chimney larger than many OF
the rooms in houses now being erected.
It is commonly said that the great
chimney, which has doors leading to it
rom some of the ancient. low raftered
rooms, was designed by the builders as
4 place of refuge from attacks from
the Indians.
John BluntsOn, one of the first
quaker settlers, who emigrated from
Oarbyshire. Eng, with his wife and
.wo children, early in 1852, it is be-
ieved, built the house and was the
first occupant of it. The earliest
minutes of the Quaker meetings Of
Darby were held in this house, and
continued until the first meeting house
vas built of logs on what is now the
Friends Rurying Ground. hundred
yards back of the old house.
1t is from the fact that all of the
first settlers came from Darbyshire.
Eng, that Darby gets its ancient
lame.
