One of the most significant won
ders of modern Agriculture is the
discovery, adaptation and develop
ment of new plant products cCm-
mercialiy valuable. Of late years
the Agricultural Department
Washington has been devotng a
great deal of attention to this with
marked success. Men of expert
intelligence are continually ran
saCking all parts Of the world in
search for new or valuable plants
and sending them TO the expert
mental stations for tria and
adaptation. III this way many
valuable acquisitions have been
made and vast possibilities have
been suggested for the future.
A bare outline of these vulual le
dis overics would run to great
! myth, but few of thcm may be
mentioned New varieties Of rice
OF great promise came from Asia.
two ncW potatoes from the noun
tins Of Feru, the original home
OF the pO:a'o, new varieties OF
oranges that will stand cold.
lemon from the Himalayas that is
IL o t injured by severe frost,
valuable pcrsilnmon from Japan, a
fine fruit we'll worthy of cultiva-
ton here, soya beans from Man
churia, with varied and very
significant value. One kind fur
nlshes paint oil another milk and
cream and even butter, it is said,
aud they are all of great value for
creating humus. From ShantunS
i'll China comes luscions peach.
of which our Hawaiian variety is
probably a degenerate offshoot;
troTi the South Sea Islands, three
new passion fruits of which the
Samoan granadilla is probably one,
already known and priced by us.
Among the rest our skala or wild
monnta,n raspberry is mentioned
as fruit of great promise. For
size, beauty and bearing qualities,
it is the prince o f raspberries,
being often as large as small tea
cup. 1t grows i'll great profusion
on the mountains of Hawaii and
Maui and when improved by cul-
tivation will be prize indeed.
During bvc-gone ages we have
pretty much been contented to en-
10y the meagre fruits and other
food products of our fathers. The
time is already at hand when we
will immensely improve and en-
rich them, and very enchanted
land of agricultural possibilities
lies before us.

We bat an battle with Drawn an

We hit tn ground with a lusty whack
That loosens our stats and breaks our back
Then ridin' home on rattly old car
We learn what bunch o dubs we are.

An how Fernandes let that fly git by,
An jist how easy we had EN- skun-

No use talkin', it does best all,
How clever such guys kin jedge ball
Never mint the whole game through

Never point would they overlook
Know tn game like open book.
