with the request OF dying man and went
mournfully for that lost stretcher. But,
10, when he came back with the cooling
board, he looked over the fence and there
was Wash Hawn hoeiDg potatoes in his
garden. He set up the cooling board
against the fence, and being provoked at
having his sympathieS so swindled, he
said:
"Well, you are the durndest, contrarieSt
old cuSS | ever saw"
With Brooks, his loud and lurid pro-
family was without irreverence-it was
only forcible mode of speech for him,
as evinced by the following anecdote {:
During the war the hated yankee" SOL
dier boys became familiar visitors to his
two daughters, much 10 his disgust as
we'll as apprehension. 1t was his custom
to put up very earnest supplication to his
gods, and presumably TO get nearer the
ear OF the Lord above, he was accustomed
TO pray out OF an open eastern gable win
dow and in a loud voice that he cared not
who heard. One dark night two gentle
men happened along the broken-down
fence and overheard old Daniel pouring
forth his griefs, and listening, they caught
this supplicating phrase: 80 good Lord,
have mercy on me and my family. Thou
knowest they are a da-ah-med long
drawn feeling emphasis on this word
hard lot, and that have helovatime
with them"
The prayer was earnest and pathetic
enough, and we should have Sympathizcd
with the poor old father pleading for his
children, instead Of entirely overlooking
this to be moved to merriment by the un-
accustomed phraseolcgy.
Retrospective annals ever seek to con-
traSt the glamour OF the antique, and past
SplendorS with the poverty left after its
decay and destruction But here the
usual form must be reversed. The di-
lapidated old home with its wretched
surroundings has disappeared, but in its
place stands a splendid mansion, the
home of luxury, Illuminated by fine art
and all that taste, culture and wealth can
gather Where opened the bleak old ga
bic out of which those fervent and forcl-
BILE prayers aScended, there now stands a
vine-clad balcony, rich as that from
which Juliet looked down on Rome-and
it overlookS spacious garden filled with
roses, lined with flowery bloom and can
opied by exotic southern trees, which
overShadow ii as the high spreading
palms of the tropic zone When we call
to mind the old dumping place OF litter
and garbage OF half century ago, it
seems a transformation as wonderful as
any in the magician stories ofthe Arabian
Nights.
Yet wealth, culture and refinement do
not eliminate the troubles, or Danish the
shadows that fall on the pathways OF hu-
man life, even though these paths be high
on the hills OF prosperity. Peradventure
there have gone up from that beauteous,
foliage crowned balcony a parents prayers
quite as tervent and pathetic as the un-
couth petition from the rude gable OF
many years ago.

And so we are nearing the journeys end
Where time and eternity meet and blend,
A little less care for bonds and gold,
A little more zest in the days OF Old

And little more love for all mankind;
More time to think and more time 10 pray;
And so we are faring adown the way.
A little more love for the friends OF youth,
A little less zeal for established truth;
A little more charity in our views,
A little less thirst for the daily news;
And so we are folding our tents away
And passing in silence at close OF day.
A little more leisure to sit and dream,
A little more real the things unseen;
A little nearer 10 those ahead.
With visions OF those long-loved and dead f:
And so we are going TO where all mnst go,
To the place the living may never know.
A little more laughter, little more tears,

And we are a part OF the countless dead.

A NEW APPLE CLASSIFICATION.

held at Spokane. Wash. various reso-
lutions were adopted tending to foster
the development of the apple industry,
and among the mos. important were
those outlining a new and what it is
hoped will be uniformly adopted as
the country's apple classification. The
resolutions were as follows: First.
that our apples be packed in three
grades. Second, that the said grades
be named extra fancy choice and
orchard run Third. that where the
words extra fancy are stamped on a
box it shall signify that the apples
when packed were sound, uniformly
graded as to size In each box, smooth.
practically frye from bruises worms.

TO PREVENT APPLE SCAH:'

There may be some readers OF these
notes who have orchards which have
been neglected for some time past and
hold sway, not only reducing the size
Of the fruit produced, but greatly in
juring its quality. To right these ills
one must spray the trees within the
two or three weeks before the bios
som buds open with the bordeaux
mixture. This is made Of blue vitriol
"copper" sulphate), lime and water and
is prepared as follows: Slack five
pounds Of fresh stone lime In a tight
box or small barrel, using care that ii
does not burn in the process, for the
better the mixture therefrom will be.
When thoroughly Stacked dilute to
twenty-five gallons, preferably in the
small barrel in which the stacking has
been done. Next dissolve five pounds
Of the copper sulphate in two or three
gallons of water and dilute to twenty
FIVE gallons. This may be done in a If
ty-fve gallon vinegar barrel and the di-
luted lime mixture added, the contents
being stirred thoroughly as each pail
full is poured in. When all Of the lime
water has been added and the con-
tents have been thoroughly stirred the
mixture should be tested by taking a
little of it in a small dish and adding
a few drops Of prussiate Of potash, a
deadly poison. If chocolate brown
precipitate results it means that there
is not enough lime in the mixture, and
enough should be added SO that the
portion tested will not turn the red
dish brown. However, in making
many tests Of this kind the writer has
never got the brown precipitate when
the above amount Of lime was used.
For small operations the barrel spray
outfit will likely be used, and the solu-
ton should be strained through
twenty mesh copper strainer or two
thicknesses Of gunny sacking. Where
the operations are on a large scale the
above $3.50" receipt, as it is called,
may be multiplied as occasion may re-
Quire. In this case a saturated stock
SoAuSAou VI NAS NoppCA SOiRAotC AA0y
be kept on hand, made by suspending
in sack in a keg Of water more Of
the chemical than will dissolve. A
gallon and two-thirds Of this solution
will give the necessary five pounds Of
the copper sulphate. while enough Of
the lime solution should be added so
that the chocolate precipitate will not
result when a few drops Of the prus-
slate Of potash are added. The solu-
ton should be kept agitated while it
is being used and should be applied to
the trees under heavy pressure. Where
orchards are badly infested with scab.
sooty blotch and other fungous pests
a second and even a third treatment
should be given with the bordeaux. it
being well to add paris green to that
applied just after the blossoms fall. in
order to kill the larvae Of the codling
moth. Spraying treatment Of this kind
will do wonders for the fruit Of
neglected orchard, and the showing on
the books will be changed from loss to
profit
