INDIANA A ERUITSTATE

G. N. Lindley, of Salem, president
Of the Indiana State Horticultural so
ciety. which is now in session in this
city. In his opening address said: ut
ID truly gratifying to the fruit grow
ers to note the advanced steps being
made at this day In the way Of plac.

gratifying to the fruit men of the
state but to everybody else. Further

much progress. along the line indicat.
cd. The time surely does not seem
far distant when Indiana will assume
. place In the front rank of fruit
growing states.
That such should be the case there
can be no doubt. for Indiana soil, par
ucularly that of northern Indiana, is
adapted to fruit growing. This is not
. theory. but proven fact. The OPP
portunity exists and the activities of
the fruit growers mean that they pro-
pose to make the most of it.
The interest being shown in the ap-
pie situation. but one of the lines of
activity among Indiana fruit men. is
. certain indication that Indiana will
assume the rank which it deserves as
IN apple growing country. The truth
IL Indiana can grow apples the equal
Of those produced anywhere; at least
In quality. The old orchards years
ago were famous for the equality and
qutntity of their product and the new
orchards can and will be just as
famous. All that Is necessary is con-
tinuation OF the work now SO well be-
gum and 80 far advanced, coupled with
proper exploitation. 1t Is largely a
question OF awakening more interest,
and that really means education. This
means q duplication Of what has been
done in the now famous apple country
Of the northwest.
While apple growing offers excellent
inducements and while the present
prospects are such as to justify en-
thusiasm on the part of fruit men,
the situation Is practically the same
with reference to other fruits, partic-
ularly small fruits.
The most encouraging sign in Indi.

ABUSE OF THE HORSE.

Do not shout in the ear Of your
horse. -
I A scientist tells us the ear Of the
horse is extremely sensitive. II you
yell at him you spoil the animal.
Which is good sense.
If you shout in a harsh, loud tone
at the horse he will come to look for
such an outburst from you. and he
will make an extra effort Of strength
only when you make an extra effort
with your voice.
The low tone, spoken positively but
kindly, is sufficient.
You may make of your horse an in
telligent faithful ally or sullen
sensitive brute. You can make bin,
your partner or your slave.
saw fine thing last winter.
a teamster stopped his horses for a
rest at the bottom of long hill. The
load OF coal was a heavy one. When
he got ready to start up the hill the
driver spoke in a low, encouraging
tone:
"Come. Billy: Now, Tom"
You should have seen those horses
pull: Twice the driver stopped on the
hillside, 'chucking' the hind wheel OF
the wagon with a piece OF wood. Once
he gave each animal friendly pat, and
they looked at him out Of their kind

China's Food Problem.


No natural resource is too trif1ing to
be turned to account by the teeming
population OF China. The sea Is raked
and strained for edible plumber. Sea
weed and kelp have place In the lar
der. Great quantities OF shellfish no
bigger than ones finger nail are opened
and made to yield food that finds
its way far inland. The fungus that
springs up in the grass after a rain
is eaten. Fried sweet potato vines
furnish the poor mans table The
roadside bitches are bafled out for the
sake Of fishes no longer than ones

four-flfths of the conversation among
common Chinese relates to food.-Ed-

Her sky is dark, and the only CLEAN

It fills Tolstoy's definition Of real art
