mention being made of the beautiful

tains Ave and a half acres. This

of water for that purpose. In this
orchard there are $50 trees. large
and we'll matured, consisting OF
cherries-the Bing cherry predomi-
municipalities. ounces, apples, al
monds and apricots. The entire or
chard has recently been sown In red
clover. which Is now growing fine
and bids fair to yield most 1uxuri-
ant crop This year DR.. Whitford
has turned his attention to the rails
ing of chickens, and now has about
500 chickens on his place, the va
rieties being largely Light Bramaha
and Buff Leghorns. These chickens
have mostly been Matched in the In
cubator, and DR.. Whitford has found
them even better than chicks hatch
ed under the hens. because they are
more hardy and better rustlers for
themselves. A visit to this orchard
viii convince any one that this Is an
ideal orchard and that DR.. Whitford
Is 1 scientific chicken raiser.

Schools and Churches.

There are three public schools in
vineland and Charleston, the pupils
of which are under the tutelage of
the best instructors. All Of the var
ious grades from the first to the
high school grade are taught. A
graduation from the high school
here will At any student to become
"A citizen Of the state" and that
should be the highest ambition Of all
Americans. The school buildings are
all Of modern architecture. large and
airy rooms. and a fine campus sur
rounding each building.
The spires of seven churches point
their mute. yet suggestive. fingers
heavenward from this city. Nearly
all denomination are represented,
the Methodist, Baptist, Episcopal
can. Christian, Catholic. Presbyter-
ian and Scandinavian. The churches
are all substantial structures. Thu
churches here are all we'll attended.
Sunday schools, which are the nurs-
cry of the church, are held every
Sunday at each of the churches.
In conclusion. we would say that
only a part Of this story has been
told. The description of the or
chards which follows are facts
cleaned from those who have made
this country what It is today. They
do not deal in glittering generali-
ties, but in cold facts. They know
that the marvellous resources of this
country are not half developed and
that a full development means low
taxes. a multiplication Of industries,
a utilization of wasted forces. Ave,
more, 1t assures higher and more
benign civilization, and prosperity
for all. There is room for more in
this beautiful valley. They want
men Of wealth, men Of action, men
Of energy, men OF capacity. above
all, men OF high integrity. II any
such there be, let him come.
