FRUIT OBTAINED BY GRATING
Results Secured by Mr.. w. f. Ely

Results Secured by Mr.. w. F. Ely.
At The Reporter office can be seen a
most wonderful growth within two
years of an apple graft OF over SIX
feet in height and five inches in cir
conference at the base. When one
realizes that this small graft was
started within two years from small
twig of four or five inches and made
this great growth, almost unheard of,
it is certainly wonderful. This graft,
as it now is termed, seems more like a
young tree, but lacking the roots, was
blown off of a grated tree in the cy-
clone on the 18th on the farm of Alex
White in Porter, being placed there
two years ago this month by w. F.
Ely Sr. of New Jersey, who then was
visiting his son. Some of the CRAFTS
then set by him have been in bloom
this spring in Fulton. A few years
ago Mr.. Ely sent here by two residents
of Fulton a graft, one of whom had
seen it set on April Is and the same
graft cut off on September Is, five
months to day, bearing apples, which
was brought back to Fulton to show
what Jersey could do.
Mr. Ely's orchard in New Jersey has
had for years the reputation of having
state. Prof. Golf Of the horticultural
department of Wisconsin, just previous
to his death, wished him to graft GER
tain kinds of apples that had been or
iginated in Wisconsin, take the same
to New Jersey and propagate them
there and report his success, which he
did, getting his CRAFTS from Wisconsin
trees, and can show where he sold even
the Wolf River for So per bushel, also
the Wisconsin apples Of Mcmahon, Pc
waukee and Northwestern Greening at
$3.50 per bushel. Apples of his own
growing were sent here to relatives in
Wisconsin and without his knowledge
sent to the exhibition at Spokane as
having been grown here in Rock
county. He never made but one eX-
hibition when he showed 20 varieties of
his own growing and won every prem
ium. AS to his success in the end, the
land or place where his orchard was
grown sold for over $4,000 cash. To
his orchard was given the credlt OF
having made this sale: For 10 years,
120 consecutive months, he never missed
one month in selling apples, increasing
yearly as his trees came on until he
passed 1000.
This spring Mr.. Ely came to Wiscon-
sin and has been to work in grating
everywhere he could : apples, pears
and ounces on the crabapple, the Gull
tivated plums on wild plums, also the
apricot; and the best varieties of cher
RES we have on the wild and choke
cherry, and any kind Of the cultivated
grape one wishes on the wild grape
vines; the English walnut and Japanese
nut on the black walnut and butternut,
and is hoping when he has passed on
he will be the cause of having done
something for his relatives and friends
to remember him by.

Choosing a Vocation.

Vocational conferences are coming into
vogue with many OF the smaller midwest col
leges, where students are pursuing classical in
stead OF technical courses. The plan is. once or
twice year, to have a man OF proved wisdom
men about their life work These conferences
often bring out suggestions and sidelights as to
adaptability which may prove of indispensable
value in later years.
Admittedly, about the most important selec-
tons young man has to make are those OF a
vocation and wife. Serious error often leads to
tragic consequences, not only for those directly
concerned. but for society as well. Young men
and women, too--need the counsel and ex-
perience OF older and wiser heads to help them
in meeting both of these tests, although some
are not as ready others to avail themselves
OF the advice. especially to one of the choices

times many of the advantages OF the educational
training are thus lost. Vocational selection is
being reduced to science, and the more general
its practice becomes the sooner will each be
made an efficient unit OF himself

Trinmnh Of Postal Service.

Few realize what Job 1t has come to be to
handle the Christmas mail in this country. Even
a casual inspection at some big postoffice or
postal terminal will not afford fully compre-
.hensive idea. Yet mammoth as this task is, It is
met each year by the Postoffice department with
q minimum of delay, Inconvenience and loss to
the public. II requires. OF course, an enormous
number OF extra men. but the same general fa-
ciiities otherwise. which serve the people at all
other times in the year, answer for these in
creased demands.

powers 81 the federal postal system. AS stead

service, such as postal banks and parcel post.
It's potential greatness becomes the more evil
dent. The fact is that even postal experts are
not able to fix the limit Of the possibilities Of
this gigantic machinery OF the government.
which is bound to continue its expansion and
development. Its next important step undoubt-
edly will be 20 take in the telegraph and tele-
phone, which are natural parts Of the general

more difficult to operate than any OF the other
parts, or all combined, as they are so operated

The Mexican Farce

Conditions in Mexico would be funny IL they
were not so tragic. Now comes reports Of
probable split between villa and zapata, who
joined hands against Carranza when he and
villa fell out and Carranza landed ahead of the
bandit leader at the capital.
The whole black line of murder and rapine
from the spring Of 1910 to the present reveals
no leader, except Madero, who possibly having
a serious conception OF the needs of Mexico, was
bold enough to attempt to act upon 1t. And
Madero died for his premature holiness
Madero displayed real understanding of the
evils of peonage and fuedalism and definite
plans for supplanting them with modern agrar-
ian rights and industrial freedom. villa boasts
that he knows all about the land question and
is determined to settle It rightly, but beyond his
wild vaporings has offered no proof of his
knowledge or intentions. If he or any other
self-proclaimed leader at present has any inter-
est larger than his personal ACKNOWLEDGMENT 1t
is not apparent in the progress of events.
Not since Diaz abdicated have any two
Leaders been able to agree indefinitely. II

On Pnblin Servioe.


The attorney general of Missouri finds no
law In that state making It illegal for an office
holder to take pay for Chautauqua speeches
while drawing his official saary-the attorney
general himself being something of a chautalker.
H. as he suggests, such departure is legal in
ell states, our public servants may proceed to
book their 1916 engagements with perfect Sc
curity so far as the law is concerned.
But is 1t not matter Of conscience, more
than of law, whether a man ought to accept an
office and salary from the public and then de-
vote much of. his time to private gain? The fact
that chautauqua side lines have become common
among our statemen of lesser and greater rank
does not affect the principle. For the most
part, these speakers deal in their lectures with
the affairs of government, exploiting all sorts Of
fine spun theories and ideals for achieving the
highest efficiency and economy and they have
succeeded in the last few years in arousing lot
Of agitation.
Yet IL Words are good, and only so when
backed by Deeds" as Roosevelt once said, how
better could our privately paid public orators
help to achieve these ideals than by devoting
more time to them in their offices and less to
talking about them from the chautauqua plat
form7 Nothing beats objective demonstration
when It comes to education. 1t is generally bet
ter to show a man than merely to tell him how
thing should be DONE The people of this
country are not penurious with their public Off
cals, many of whom, for dignity's sake, IL moth
ing else. should be given much latitude in their
public conduct, and yet when 1t comes to the
matter Of dignity perhaps the least said the bet
ter In speaking Of the bustling business of chau-
tauqua lectures.
