VALUE OF COOPERATING.
An Easy Way to Test New Varieties
Some Crafts That Will Grow.

If some enthusiastic friend, --or, worse
vet, tree agent-tells you OF some
splendid variety of apple or pear or
peach, don't make the morethan probable
mistake Of setting out an orchard which
will turn out more or less of failure,
says Guy E. Mitchell in the American
Cultivator. Rather top graft few
bearing trees or few limbs on one
tree, and thus test out the new kind
You will get your fruit in two or at
most three years, and then you can
determine intelligently whether YOU
want an orchard Of it or not. 1t IS
not unusual to see a fairly good crop
on a three year-old top-graft
Varieties which on their own roots
are weak, unthrifty or disease inviting,
make excellent crops when top-grafted
on strong trunks The Northern Spy
is an example of an apple practically
immune from the attacks of woody
aphis. 1t is sometimes planted and
worked over in other varieties
Grating is one of the most interest
ing things on the farm and it is alb
surdly simple. a little desultory prac-
tice will soon produce experiences. What
could be more fascinating for the boy
that to teach him the rudiments and
then let him work over some old apple
tree with different variety on each
limb-a dozen kinds on tree-sOur,
sweet, early, late, big and little, crabs,
even pears can be grated on apple

The Man OF Leisure.

Most of our rich men work very hard
mot always because they want to, but
in many instances because they have
to. The husbancry of big estate In
itself may be a task for the whole of
the time and thought, not of one man,
but of several As a general thing II
is fair to say that our only man of
leisure is the tramp. The social pariah,
the mutineer against the rule of work,
is the only one who can be sure Of
care free. sybaritic existence, and even
he lives in constant danger Of rock salt
from the farmers gun or the onslaught
OF the watchdog around the corner as
the hobo knocks at the kitchen door
or pauses at the water trough to. drink.
The poor tramp is certainly a more
frequent social phenomenon than the
rich one. Philadelphia Ledger.

What is the Origin of Cancer?

At all events it is the germ of plant
cancer, So much lis absolutely certain,
and the discovery is of great scientific
and practical value But the chief inn
portance of the find lies in the hope
that it will point the way to solution
of the dreadful problem OF cancer in
human beings.
Plant cancer is the disease common
Nv known as root tumor,' black knot"
or "crown gall"--the last of these names
referring to the fact that the morbid
growths concerned often appear at the
top, or crown, of the root But they
frequently occur on the stems, above
ground, or even on the leaves.
The plant tumor is in structure so
like a cancer that there is really not
very much difference between the two.
In both cases there is the same enor-
nous proliferation of cellular tissue, oft
en- forming nest like massives. Under
normal conditions, in plant or animal,
cells of each class have their own par
ticular work to do-the making of Sc
oretions, or what not-but IN cancer,
or plant tumor, they are no longer
attending to their business, and seem
actually to have gone crazy. Even when
viewed under the miscroscope, the struc
ture of plant tumor is found to differ
in no important respect from cancer in
a human being.
Less than ten years ago the vegetable
imagined that there was no
germ of plant cancer, because they could
not find it. To-day most of the ami
NAL pathologists assert that there is no
microbe of animal cancer, for exactly
the same reason. Yet. it is now known,

Tho Earl and the Angler.

One of the earls of Mimic had
kindly nature. One day Hawick an
gler was throwing his line on the river
near Mimic when a tall gentleman
came up TO him and inquired what
kind of sport he was having. The
fisher replied that it was not very
good and that he could do better IL
he were at the other side of the water,
adding, I'm gle We sixpence II yen
carry me across" The bargain was
struck, and the gentleman, getting the
angler on his back. carried him through
the water to the other side. True TO
his promise, the angler produced the
sixpence. which he preferred to the
stranger, who. however, smiled and
remarked, Give it to the first beggar
you meet and tell him 1t is present
from the Earl of Mimic"

merchant who is constantly advertising

what he has to offer in the way of
