A clever man hides half he does not

The women of history have been

The life of clever woman is per-
petual secret. Beyond the vestibule
OF her mind, none may venture.
Intimacies are tabooed by her.
Aloofness, untinged by hauteur, is
her meter. She argues, reasonably,
that the career Of individuals must
be jeopardized, or retarded by init

Ever, though covertly, are her eyes
regarding the Greetings of Opportu-

Haste has no part in her. She
is enviably serene, habitually tactful,
gaining thereby, as tribute, all that
stupid women lose through tears.
Extraordinarily gifted, sans doute,
she is; yet by no self-conducted TOM
tom is it heralded.
Her wisdom is finely tempered by
wit, and when she is most witty, she
is weirdly wise.
She knows-ncne better-that by
ambition fell the angels. Although
wingless, she intends to rise by it.
Obstacles are regarded sans tremor,

Rarely is she rich. Often her

Biq Gate in Garden.

Put in a big gate at the corner of
the garden so that a team and cult
vator may be driven right through.
Plant the early vegetables in long
row; the next earliest in another long
row, and continue the several crops
throughout the season. Plant the rows
far enough apart SO that horse power
may be substituted for hand hoeing.
1t usually happens that the wife and
daughter are expected to take care of
the garden. It is all nonsense to have
a lot of small beds mounted up with
a hoe. It makes the garden look like
a small cemetery and whole flock
of freshly planted funerals had been
unloaded.

"a question which travellers often

hard to agree with one of the great

ever lived.
"Our own Niagara is only half
mile wide and 1853 feet high, SO that
it figures as a mere cascade in com.

This is all very we'll, but Niagara
still leads in the impressiveness of it's
proportions. The Zambesi falls are
two miles wide, four times the width
Of Niagara. In order to preserve the
relative proportions of the latter the
African falls should therefore be four
times its height, or 632 feet.
Its real height Of 42O feet is less
than three times that of Niagara.
This changes its relative proportions
decidedly and not in way to increase
it's impressiveness.

opinion as to the exact stage of matur-
ity at which melons should be picked
for shipment. If allowed to become
too ripe before picking, they become
soft by the time they reach the mar
ket, and often must be sacrificed in
order to effect an immediate sale. If
picked too green, the melons reach
market in firm condition, but are lack
ing in flavor, and are not desired by
the best trade. 1t is nice point to
pick melons at such degree of ripe
ness that they will reach the market
in firm condition, and yet possess the
requisite flavor. The farther from
market the melons are produced, the
less mature they must be when picked.
Furthermore, the rapidity of soften
ing after picking varies with the tenn
perature to which the melons are sub.
jected.
While it is true that no rule can be
given for picking melons that will ap-
ply under all conditions, and that the
grower must exercise judgment in ref
erence to each days picking, the ideal
will be attained when the conditions
are such that the melons will reach
the market in the best condition if
picked as soon as the fruit will part
readily from the stem when the latter
is pressed with the thumb or finger.
There is tendency among scme grow.
ers to pick considerably before this
point has been reached, in order to
run no risk of the melons becoming
soft in transit. In fact, some grow
ers make practice of picking the
melons before a crack appears about
the stem or any change of color takes
place, even on the under side of the
fruit.
Proper. grading of melons results in
the securing of better prices than in
discriminate packing as is evidenced
by the experience of certain growers
who have departed from the usual
custom, and practice a regular sys.
TEN of grading whereby three distinct
grades of marketable melons are
made, and shipped under three differ
ent brands. Such system of grading
and branding makes it possible for the
commission man to place the different
grades with the different classes Of
trade, instead of being obliged to sell
the entire shipment as ungraded stock
| to undiscriminating purchasers. AS
a. result, the best grade often brings
double Tie price of ungraded stock
on the same market, while the lowest
grade usually sells for practically the
same as ungraded stock, so that the
excess in price received for the higher
grades is practically all clear gain
as a result of grading.
There is a close relation between
the amount and character of netting
and the quality of melon, so that,
after a little experience. it is possible
to grade melons with extreme &C.
curacy as to quality, on the basis of
netting. AS rule, the denser and
more fully developed the netting, the
better the quality of the melon. The
netting should stand out like whip.
cords on melons graded as fancy
stock. Well-netted melons, in which
the netting is not quite so prominent,
together with of sizes of the best:
netted melons. may be graded as No.
