the orange OF commerce and the trifoiate
orange are about much akin as are the
buff cochin and the bantam among chick
ems. Yet they mate. 1t has been done.
The citrange is the result.
Plants are mated through inter-
change of pollen from their blossoms.
The customary method of interchanging
pollen between flowers Is by means OF
another. 1t is somewhat haphazard, and
the grower is not able to know for sure
more than one of the parents of a given
seed. But the men of science who at
tempt so difficult thing as to call into
being heretofore unknown plants have
improved upon this method.
When two plants are selected as the
types from which to produce a given
the blossoms as they come to maturity.
This keeps out the bees and prevents
polarization until the grower is ready
for it. Then he removes the cloth and
bloom of the other. The cloth is re-
placed, and there is no opportunity for
other polarization. So the seeds that re-
suit from the given flowers may be de-
pended upon as being Of given parent
age.
In this way was the orange of Florida
crossed with the mock oranges Of the
northern gardens. The idea was to pro-
duce an orange stock that would grow
in colder climates. The result was the

1t has now been ten years since this
fruit was first called into existence. The
seeds of the cross were planted and the
resulting plants were somewhat between
the orange and the mock orange. Some
OF the fruit too closely resembled the
mock orange to be edible. But some of
it partook of the edible qualities Of the
one parent, while yet influenced by the
new blood of the outlaw member of the
family.
The result was q fruit looking some
thing like small. fiat orange. 1t was,
however. much redder of skin and conse-
quently more ornamental. 1t possessed
that rare aromatic odOr OF the mock
orange. ana its fragrance will sweeten the

juicy body. When it Is cut in halves the
uuaided fingers. 1t yields larger per
cent of acid than does the lemon.
This acid may be made into citrangade,
which is the equal of any lemonade.
Many people prefer it. 1t may be used in
cooking for any of the purposes for
which lemons are made. 1t makes good
preserves or marmalade. 1t is excellent
when served with fish or iced tea.
With all these qualities it possesses an
other characteristic which makes it the
most deadly rival to the lemon. 1t will
grow in half the states of the Union. The
lemon, and all the citrus fruits for that
matter, are almost without home in :the

But what must thrill every English

ago this June in the little town of St
Clair-sur-Epte. between Paris and Nor
mandy. with present population of 800
inhabitants, and a ruined feudal castle
built by Henry III of England.
Tourists who stop off at st -Clair-sur-
Epte must look with their historic eye
behind that ruin. Two hundred and fifty
years before it was built the site was
occupied by villa dating from old

swarm OF Northman pirates sailing and
rowing up the River Seine. and even at
lacking Paris.
Now you see why President Fallieres
will sit with teh three Northman kings
beside him. Thus Normandy was squat

In vain the magnificent Count Eudes de-
Tended Paris and drove back the North
men. Count Of Paris. Rlois and Orleans,

Eudes was easily the most powerful and
respected lord OF west France. The peo-
pie acclaimed him. and the mobiles crowned
him TO replace Big Charles. But not for
long. JealouSies caused generous EudeS
to resign, not to waste the land by civil
war So. in the year 1913. he begged his
brother seigneurs to swear allegiance to
Charles the Simple.
He was simple.
This is why we find him at ST. Clair
ing a treaty with Rollo. the Northman
chieftain. 1t was called a treaty; but
after having his foot kissed Charles pure
ly and simply coded away to Rollo and
his crowd all the present great province
of Normandy.
1t is momentous speculation, what
would have been the worlds history had
not Eudes miscalcuiated He hoped to
save France from civil war-of course, to
fight the Norman invaders Eudes would
have pushed them back to their boats in
the ocean. And neither you nor l nor any

promising of these is the tangelo.
The tangelO is a cross between the tan

The grapefruit has become the favorite

are other great numbers of people to

strong. The tangerine, on the other hand
is oversweet. 1t is too small for break

glove skin and the ease in separating it's
segments make it the most convenient
of the citrus fruits in the eating.

is an indication that both animal and

things as the sun has never before shown

article by Ellen Velvin on Critical
Moments with Wild Animals" In this
paper Miss Velvin speaks of the indi-

animals, and tells stories to illustrate.
One Of her "reminiscences is of twin lion

Schley. on the contrary. may be invited
to dinner with impunity.
when the proprietor gave a press
dinner. at the end of the meal Schley
was allowed to walk into the dining
room, which he did in his usual sedate
and placid manner. He looked around,
actually got on the table, shifted the
bottles and a cigar, and then quietly got
down and walked out again. There
were many clever mep and brave ones
at that dinner, but no man there was
ashamed to admit afterward that he felt
