It was clearly impossible to confde in

cook gave her inexpressible relief, which
enabled her to bear with equanimity the
ill-humor of that parsonage and the NUT
tered references to Nests companion of
the previous day. Every hour brought
her nearer to the time when she might
expect reply to her letters. She had
resolved to accept anything if only she

Fig Culture in the South.

The fig is a domestic fruit of prime inn
portance in all the Gulf and south Allan
tic states. Throughout this region II is
common dooryard tree. Its broad.
rich foliage is one of the first things to
catch the eye of the northern visitor and
assure him that he is really in the South.
Toward its northern limit the tree is
sometimes injured by unusually severe
winters, but unless killed 10 the ground
II never fails to produce heavy annual
crops. Even severe winter killing Is
usually but a temporary loss, as the
roofs send up vigorous sprouts that bear
the following year unless again killed
down, which is seldom done, as it is rare
TO have two severe winters in succession.
Although the fig is so widely dis
tributed and so universally esteemed for
household uses, il is only recently that
any attempt has been made HI the ter
ritory under consideration to utilize it
as commercial product. In the search
throughout the south for possible money
crops other than cotton il Is beginning
10 attract attention.

Rampant Taper Talks for

, should Alaska be selt-governing ? I Answer.'
 That is the wording of message re- ceved from the Fairbanks Northern Light last afternoon, What particular circumstance caused the inquiry can not be told, but there Is likelihood that some krnd of representation to congress regarding the matter is con templated.
 The answer is Yes" Americans anywhere on American soil should be self.governing. The more remote and isolated from the populous csnters, the more vital the p inclpIe becomes Place a single jndevlduAl in the wilder ness, out of req b Of his fellows, and he at once becomes seIf-gUyerning; aud If he is sensible American he usually governs himself well. Put two there and they will couf-r and usually adop. the most beneficial course of acton. A majority will decide what is 70 be done by three. And so on and so 9a up to auy number. Set two men down in the wids with absolute authority delegated to one to control the actions of the other, and rebellion or perhaps homicide will follow. The nore localized government is in d new country the better. Ia such al country there are always two evils toI oe feared when the gove hing power IS centered at a distance: one is wutul ignorance and the other willful wroGg.
