THE CALL OF HOME.

(By AL B. Levenson.)
Did you ever feel an aching
As If your wearey heart was breaking
And you set and think and sigh
And a tear come to your eye
In the world, you feel, alone
That's the cry of Home-Sweet-Home.
When everything feels wrong
Like a bird, without a song
Your spirits, are depressed and blue
Even the sun, has an ashen hue
That's the call of those that roam
For Home-Home Sweet Home.
That's the call-the winds do sing
And in your ears forever ring
We cannot still them-night or day
Home, Sweet, Home, they always say
From the ground, to Gods heavenly
dome
It echos NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

Why We Make This Offer

Heretofore Stark Trees have been sold through
salesmen, to whom we have paid a commission for
sending us your orders. We have now discontinued
selling through statesmen and are dealing direct with
the planter in the irrigated valleys and orchard re-
eions of the west. Thus the commissions formerly
paid are saved-andg given to you.

for "The Apple Stark Delicious a booklet giving
its full history and the opinions of the worlds
greatest horticulturists and successful orchardists.
1t will convince you. Last year we sold $50 900
trees of Delicious alone and could have sold another
/ million had we had them. Planters nowadays
do not buy a variety at that rate unless there's a rea-
son. And there is one-send for the booklet.
