Sixty-Year Old Apple Tree.

In 1858 a Missouri farmer decided
that he wanted to take Greeley's ad-
vice aud go west to do little growing
up with the country. He took with
him tiny apple tree growing on his
farm, to see what luck it might bring
him. From all appearances he made a
wise move, for the tree is still grow
ing and showering apples all over the
orchard each year.

Paying in Potash.

Practical ideas to speed up produc-
ton were never more welcome than
now. The French government has
been investigating Morocco, and the
Paris papers, with great interest, are
discussing plan to pay the national
debt, with exports of this fertilizer,
which is most in demand wherever sci
entific agriculture is most advanced.
Potash makes titled land more fertile
and stops impoverishment of the soil.
It's money value figures. Hard cash
is not calculated in big figures. Hard
cash is not always the most profita-
BILE form Of payment. The demand
for the nitrate deposits of Chile and
Peru have been readily exchangeable
for cash. Intelligent farmers know
that judicious use of fertilizers en-
larges their crops and improves their
land, a form of accretion that certain
ly exceeds cash in hand while the soil
is running down.
The French potash sensation has an
admirably substantial basis. Pay
ment in fertilizers could be worked to
the advantage of all concerned. But
the United States is big domain. We
have been looking in recent years for
extensive potash deposits in our own
spacious territory, and expect to find
them. The value of cash is compare
tive. In early colonial times Virginia
planters exchanged their tobacco fo1
wives. And the F. F. VS. are by nc
means lacking in pride of descent p

ENGLAND HAS
NO BIRTHDAY

The remark in your leader columns
that the English alone among all the
great peoples have no great annual
national feast day set me wondering
why writes "N.") The explanation
which at last suggested itself was this
that there is no great event in our
history over which opinion was not
seriously divided at the time. We
have nothing that we can celebrate
with such united enthusiasm as Amer
lea can bring to her festivals of
Thanksgiving Day and Independence
Day. We haven't a birthday. We
could not agree as to whether the de-
position of Charles l, or the restora-
ton of Charles IL gave US the better
cause for national rejoicing, and it is
just as well that the Ulster habit of
commemorating the Battle of the
Boyne has not ATTAINED favour with
US. Our great days have been the tri-
umph, of one faction over another,
and the triumph has never been COM
plete. The Norman Conquest seemed
to be decisive, but the fact that not
one of US wants to celebrate it sug-
gests that perhaps it wasn't. The on
ly thing for us to do is to fix upon an
arbitrary date on which we may pro-
claim to the world what fine fellows
we are; and that doesn't seem inspir-
