Eddie HOrter, the young sprinter of

trip abroad for the coming summer,
during which he expects to meet and

LAND OF ORANGE BLOSSOMS
South Of France Relied on for Mar
rss9s EmbIems Worn When Eng.
llsh Brides Go to Altar.

bou OEso01 W 70 NltAFs
In many ways the modern marriage
differs from the weddings Of yester-
day. but with all the changes the
ceremony Is not really complete with
out orange blossoms. A huge guam
tity Of the pure white fragrant flowers
arc used every year at fashionable
ceremonies. and yet not many people
seem to know where they all come
from.
As a matter Of fact, nearly all the
orange blossoms which come to Lon
don are grown in the south of France,
few miles inland from the coast
line Of the Riviera, says the Daily
News Of that city. Here, where the
sheltered valleys of the Alps Mari
times lie basking in the sun. are
found the orange orchards whence
comes the supply of blossoms for
British weddings.
OF course. large proportion Of the
orange flowers is used in the manu-
facture Of that perfume for which
Grasse has become SO famous, but
many growers make a special feature
OF supplying sprigs for the marriage
ceremony. None of these trees are
permitted to bear fruit and the great
est possible care Is taken over the
cultivation, 30 as to insure an abun-
dance Of blossoms. When in full
flower the trees present a most at
tractive appearance, the dark ever
green foliage showing up in fine con-
tra of IN no ole irc 10 ako1o

orange tree that 1t will remain in
flower for a considerable part Of the
year; thus the owner of = we'll man.
aged orchard can at almost all times
find few blossoming shoots.
During the spring and early sum.
mer the orange trees are most full Of
blooms and 1t Ia then that the larg-
est quantities are dispatched. All day
long the pickers are at work in the
orchards. Curious stepladders are
used 30 that the gatherer may be
able to reach all parts of the trees.
The orange flowers are going long
journey and on this account 1t is need
full to pick them before they are
fully expanded. Happily, they keep
well for long time, and the blooms
will be nice and fresh when they are
unpacked thirty-six kours later in the
florists shop. After being kept in
the dark. cool place. with their stems
in warm water for a few hours, the
petals will expand beautifully and be
ready for use.
Orange flower growing is possibly
one Of the most hourishing industries
In the world. in that the demand al
ways exceeds the supply. Any super
fluous blooms which a grower may
have are always greedily swallowed
up by the scent makers, whose wants
can never be fully met. Most Of the
orchards are owned by small holders,
and in many cases these have been
retained in the family for large num-
ber Of years. Thus 1t Is not an easy
thing for q newcomer to be able to
secure an orchard save on the rare
occasions when these are offered for
sale. The starting of an orange or.
charl is very slow business, az the
trees are not quick growers and It Is
some time before anything in the way

Only short time ago call for
public meeting of the citizens of
Monte Vista to discuss and take
action on ways and means to ad-
vance matters of common interest
generally resulted in the attend
anoe of a ''short" corporal's guard
of the old "stand- bys" who were
always to be counted on in such
affairs. This is not the condition
now. The people have awakened
to the fact that there is somethin
doin'" and they want to get on
the band wagon. Witness the last
two road meetings held here.
When young Diaz was captured
at Vera Cruz by the federal forces
it was the general opinion of the
civilized world that he should be
dealt with leniently. The strong
protests made against his exeou-
ton were needed by Madero and
an unworthy life was spared. 1t is
now evident that this policy of
mercy was a mistake. Diaz and
his cutthroats are fighting for no
principle, merely for power and
plunder. New York World

SPECIAL FARM TRAIN
TO VISIT MONTE VISTA

An agricultural special train,
run under the auspices of the Col
orado Agricultural college and
carrying information to the farm
ers in every agricultural section Of
Colorado, left Fort Collins Monday,
Feb. H.
The train will visit Monte Vista
Monday, March 10.
The object in running this train
is to carry to the farmers informa-
tion obtained by experts in the
Colorado experiment station and
to give the farmers an opportunity
to receive instruction direct from
the college professors.
Subjects of special interest to
the sections visited will be dealt
with by the professors, a new fea-
ture Of the work being the lecture
cars. Not until this year has any
attempt been made to give direct
instruction to the farmers.
The exhibit cars will be un-
usually interesting. There will be
several hives of bees aboard and
Prof. Vaplon will carry a number
Of his best hens and roosters. The
home economic department will
show household conveniences, ideas
for farm home improvement, aids
in the laundry, specimens of the
dressmaking art, model houses,
showing attractive interior finish
ing, model kitchens, canned fruits,
vegetables and other products of
the kitchen.
The animal husbandry depart
ment will illustrate with working
models, silo construction, stock
feeding, dairying, homemade live
stock buildings and other appli-
ances. The veterinary exhibit will
contain specimens illustrating the
effect of the Kansas horse disease,
which killed many horses in North
ern Colorado last summer, speci-
mems showing the effects of hog
cholera and specimens of poisonous
plants found in the state.
Samples of seed recommended
for various attitudes will be shown
by the agronomy department and
demonstrations will be made illus
trating seed improvement and
methods of treating seed to pre-
vent smut.

Every one who passed said, oh, dear, how that ugly rock spous the looks

there is a wonderful little plant that grows O rocks such Is you. Some day I
I'm going to try to bring some down here tic you. Perhaps then it may take
} fancy to grow o. your sides and you will look very different.
And n day the brook pushed and foated a piece Of stone down the
stream and lodged it just beside the big gray rock.
"There' said the brook; Just look at that piece of stone! It broke off and
fell into the water yesterday, so I've just hoated it down to you. The big rock
of which it was a part is covered with that green stuff. They call it moss
THE big gray rock was greatly pleased. The brook swept the stone as
close to it as possible, and the rock said to the green moss:
"'Pease come up here and grow O. me-
"Soon a faint green began to color the gray sides Of the stone, and persons
who had said, What an ugly old rock that isp turned to notice it.
DAY by day the green became deeper until in time the rock was covered
with a thick vevety coating Of moss.
Then in the soft moss the seeds IF little wild flowers carried there by the
wind, by insects or birds took root and lovely flowers grew out Of the crannes

People now began to come from far and near to lei It What a beautiful
