succeeded, according TO unofficial,
though reliable reports received
here.
The czar's soldiers have advanced
along the Pruth practically to the
gates OF Czernowitz and immediate
ly to the north OF u, have taken
several points along the direct line
OF railroad running toward Lem
berg. the Galician capital. Kolomea
is the objective Of the north OF
Czernowitz attack.
Should this town fall, Czernowitz
would be without direct rail conf
munication with Lemberg, though
II could be reached and supplied
with men from there by sending
them on a wide detour TO the west.
A successful drive on Czernowitz
with persistence in the offensive i'm
mediately TO the north would force
the Austrians to the bitter expedi-
ent of retreating through the Car
pathlans.

upon the chances that present them
selves. 1t has been said that this is
a younger mans age, and 50 1t Is In
the sense that the vigor Of youth Is
increasingly necessary to keep the
pace at which we are living. But it
is increasingly an old mans era, and
people no longer think it necessary
to regard themselves as in the human
discard because the years Of their
life have multiplied. Many active,
vigorous people are at all the time in
evidence, the stimulus of a youthful
heart keeping at bay and defying the
ravages Of time. They have seen
many opportunities slip by them,
but they are ready and watching for
others to come. 1t is never time to
despair until death has laid his mort
gage on our earthly frame, and even
then many men have gone ahead and
done great things for humanity
while lingering in the shadow OF the
tomb. Opportunity never quits COM
ing until our eyelids close in their
last sleep, and then, If we have lived
a life Of unselfishness, the influence
Of what we have done and tried to
do viii live on for a benediction on
generations to come"

After dinner the meeting was called
to order by the president, Mr.. G. ].
Lewellin The minutes Of the last
meeting were read and approved. No
new members were enrolled. The
committee appointed to prepare a
program for the year beginning with
August was not ready to report. The
subject for the day was '.The Citrus
Grove: Fall and Winter Care" The
club was disappointed in not receiv-
ing a citrus specialist from Gaines
Vile TO talk upon the subject. Sever
al members OF the club gave good
talks No two seemed to agree but
as variety is the spice OF life" and
each respected the opinions OF 9TH

discussion more interesting.

quently during the winter to con-
serve the moisture and protect the
trees in case Of freeze, and fertil-
izing again in February. He added
that the best groves he knew Of we're
never plowed.
DR.. Conibear followed with
talk so replete with good that we
regret it could not have been taken
verbatim and published for the bene-
fit of others. His knowledge upon
the subject has been gained largely
through experimenting and is there
fore practical. One fact he empha-
sized was not to be afraid to apply
lime to the soil, that our soil here
is deficient milne and that the BAG
terra that prepare earthly matter for
plant food thrive best in soil rich
in lime, and cited Seville, Spain,
where orange trees more than 800
years old are still in bearing and the
soil there contains a large percen-
tage of lime. He advised applying
crushed lime stone and not burnt
lime as the latter eats the humus in
the soil.
Mr.. Swindell followed, saying too
much narrowing through the win
ter is like tickling the baby under
the chin when 1t is asleep. You are
likely to wake 1t up. So with too
frequent narrowing. 1t may waken

said the best grove he knows is

cry time he thinks of II and then be-

once with a turn pillow and in the
spring run through with the disc
harrow. Then cultivate with the
Acme harrow Till the rains set In

OPPORTUNITY

An Oklahoma editor gives the fol-
lowing discourse on the subject OF
Opportunity:
ut is an old saying that oppor-
tunity knocks but once at any mans
door, yet there are few men living
who cannot testify in their own ex-
perience that such is not the case.
Opportunity comes often and in var
ious guises. He is not discouraged
by our inhospitality or unprepared-
ness, but returns again and again.
In the sense that great opportuni-
ties do not offer themselves fire.
quently, the old saying may be cred
tied as true, but there are hundreds
OF smaller chances lying in wait for
us at every rising Of the mornings
sun. We may look back and see the
time when, had we been ready to an
swer the cell OF some unrecognized
chance, our lives might have taken a
turn for the better and given us a
greater measure Of prosperity and
success. There are the rare opportun-
tiles that present themselves the
seizing Of which will make life bet
ter for us and for others. Hope
springs everlasting, and there is
good reason why II should. Not un-
til man has passed the age Of pos
sible activity and has seen the pow
ers fade away can he truthfully say
that opportunity is no longer his
possible friend IL he will but seize

strength and was of great assistance
to the authorities in keeping the peace,
as the entire lawless element Of that

science since 1887.
That year DR.. Fahlberg was employ

at tea. he was surprised to find how
sweet his bread and butter tasted. He
traced the sweetness to his fingers,

Oriain of Felt.

Many centuries ago q poor monk
was compelled to travel upon q long
and arduous journey. His road was
rocky, his sandals were worn, and he
suffered agonies as he trudged grimly
upon his holy Grand. One day as he
sat by the wayside resting a sheep
came up to him, bleating in the most
friendly fashion. The good monk pet
ted the sheep and was grateful for its
dumb friendliness, when suddenly he
had an inspiration. He took out his
sheath knife, sheared two handfuls Of
wool from the sheep and placed one
In the heel Of either sandal That
afternoon as he trudged along his feet
seemed light, his step springy. The
wool took the jar from his spine, the
impact Of the stony road from his
aching, swollen feet.
The next morning as he started out
he thought to rearrange the wool pad
ding and discovered that the friction
and the movement of his feet In the
sandals had reduced the wool to a sort
Of a cloth. Thus was discovered felt.
which to this day is one of the most
effective substances ever discovered
for padding purposes.
