Seedless Cranes.


WHATS become of the "coreless" an
pie! Twenty years ago it was an
iiounced as a discovery or a develop
heht calculated to revolutionize the or
chafd industry. OF late we hear less
about it.
A little later the ''thornless" black
perry appeared on the horizon. # GER.
talnly was thornless, but somehow if
falled to drive the ferociously-armed
ofambles of the berry gardens into the
desert. 1t is still produced. but the
oder kinds are yet much more COM
mon.
Now the "seedless" grape bids for ia
Vor. Such fruit would surely meet
long-felt want" says Country Life
III America. If the quality and flavor
OF the few thus far grown can be per-
petuated and it proves remuneratiyelv
productive and capable of standing
up for shipment there is big future
before it.

rors governing the ownership of
- estate have been evolved from the
,.,o7 rights Of man to the soil and
-, rnIati0ns to his fellow man and the
,hlic welfare. Ownership Of land is
t sno Of the great upholding forces of
dorm civilization. No man, however,
..,nfrps right to real estate that he
80 maintain against the public well
.s.o which has the power to condemn
.orartv needed for public use, or that
menace to public life and health.
~ mons rights in real estate are cir
Inscribed by the rights of adjoining
,n.rprS and the paramount interests of
h. General government, which can take
oa,spssion of the property after ap-
arsfsaI and condemnation for the gen
,r,I welfare. If the government did
-,+ retain the right to condemn and
+,Eo nroperty belonging to private par
dos then the individual holding would
10 an empire in itself and block all
orocross and public improvements.
All real estate is defined and circum-
srbpd by boundary corners and lines
ss established by government survey.
Tho States are divided into counties,
and the counties subdivided into town
sbfns. and the townships into sections
If $40 acres. Each section is divided
into quarter sections with appropriate
dpsoriDtiOnS in the conveyance of the
nonertv. The meridian lines were
rsed in description of real estate, and
in the government survey section and
martpr section corners are established
IA mark the boundaries of public lands.
In purchasing land it is well in the
weliminary examination to ascertain
tbp corners and boundary lines of the
property and ascertain if the adjoining
owner is satisfied with the division
fences. If one purchases eighty acres
and he apprehends that the land is
short measure it would be better to
have the property surveyed before the
transfer is made. The government cor
Iprs should be marked by a stone not
easily removed. and if the corner is so
designated subsequent surveys may
make the property more or less than
the description, but cannot change the
monumental corners established by the
original government survey.
Farms are occupied individually and
not in severalty, and the new pur-
chaser should ascertain before closing
the purchase the division of the line
fences which inclOse the property and
discover if such division is satisfactory
To adjoining property holders, as eX-
IenSive litigation has often grown out
Of a misunderstanding of land bound
aries and division fences. Every pur-
chase Of real estate should be hedged
about by the removal of every obstacle
that might cause a misunderstanding
between neighbors.-GoOdall's Farmer.

The dead and wounded lay
On trampled fields and ridges battle-torn

Around the guarded hosts,

With eyes and tresses wild,

It made no difference what officer
was in charge Of the picket. One day
the lieutenant who had winked at or
turned his back upon these society and
commercial enterprises was suddenly
Frustrated, returned to camp and a new
lieutenant took his place. And he was
new, brand new. He was q political
pull officer. He had been commissioned
by the governor at the request Of his
father, who had the pull, and assigned
to regiment Of New Workers who had
seen hard service and had plenty Of
good material Of its own for officers.
Of course the whole regiment felt in
suited, but what could it do? Papa
had drawn on the governor for a pair
of shoulder straps for his son before
he had earned them. By honoring the
draft he had pleased one man and
another temporarily. The young lieu
tenant was pleased until he ran upon
the ice and scowls Of the veteran New
Workers. Then he was sad. I dislike
to think, even now, that there was
much Of that kind Of work done, not
alone by the Governor Of New York,
but by all Of the Governors, and In
both armies 1t seldom worked we'll
There were exceptions, to be sure. This
young fellow, who wanted to fight for
his country if he could begin as an
officer the third year Of the war, was
sent to take the place Of the prostrat-
ed officer. He reached the picket line
just in time to see Virginian land
and shake hands with our men. That
was the first rebel he had seen. What
was he there for but to kill and cap
ture rebels? you are prisoner. Ser
geant, take this man to General Cutler
with my compliments, and tell him he
was taken at Fitzhugh Crossing" It
mattered not that our boys and the
Confederates protested, the lieutenant
knew his business and did not want
private soldiers to interfere.
The prisoner was sharply questioned
by the gruf old general. When Cutler
ascertained the facts In the case-that

Stories of the Picket Line.

and deep for some distance below
Fredericksburg, Va. Pickets could visit
with ease so far as conversation went,
while standing or sitting on their re-
spective posts when once they had
made a bargain to do no firing; and
a year after the war began and the
men had learned that in the main the
two armies were made up Of human
beings and not hyenas or something
equally ferocious. But talking at long
range soon became tiresome. 1t has
always been so, whether in war or
peace, in the city or on the prairie.
Farmers may talk for a time at long
range, but they soon come together
and rest their elbows on the top rail
end a foot on the second rail. Wo-
men may begin conversation standing
in their respective doorways, but they
are not long in getting their heads
close together. Haven't you noticed
that? That was the way with the
pickets on the Rappahannock. After
they had talked for time with the
deep, narrow, black, sluggish Kappa
hammock dividing them they sought an
easier, q more convenient, a more So
ciable way. The pickets of General
Cutters Union brigade managed with
the men in gray on the opposite side
of the river after this fashion:
II say, Yank!"
What is it, Johnny?'
eve uns like the smell Of you alls
real coffee mighty WELL"
''Do you want some of it, JohnnyY
Just homesick for some real coffee"
''How's your tobacco supplyT
Plenty Of it,
They were nearly always long on
plug tobacco, but short on coffee, real
coffee, and our boys were often short
on tobacco, but seldom so on coffee.
Lets dicker, Johnny"
That's US, honey; how shall we de-
liver the goods?"
make a raft from boards on yon
barn and come over"
Mean it, Yank? Won't sneak us?''
ION honor, Johnny; on honor. Come

Within an hour a Confederate craft,
laden with one unarmed Johnny and u
liberal supply of Virginia plug and
long Tom, ran it's Jagged nose against
the northern bank Of the river.
mo shenanigan, Yanks."
mot bit. You'll go back as soon's
the goods are exchanged and you get
ready"
That completed the treaty, with II
reciprocity attachment, and the good
narured Virginian did not need a sec
ond invitation to partake of coffee,
fried pork and bareback.
When the ship sailed back to the
Confederacy and the captain displayed
his stock of coffee and told Of the ban
quet rendered him by the enemy, one
Of his brethren called over:
Bully for you, Yanks! The war is
over until they change pickets!"
And it was. There was not an hour
III the day when the raft was not en-
gagged in bringing tbs pickets together
fol social and commercial intercourse.
They snapped goods, played cards, dis
cUssed battles and had as good a time
as the same men would have to-day
were they to come together, for with
such as they the war had been over
ever since Grant and Lee came togeth-
er and shook hands at Appomattox.
