Faumkk; In ri coinniunlcation (luted Kobrunry 11, in your paper, Mr. Lucllintf In discoursing upon tho J'cach plum mibject, uses this language, to wit: "In conclusion, Mr. Kdltor, I will say this: IT Mr. Walling will assort through your col umns that ho did not originate tho famous " I'oaoh plum," that ho has so long cultivat ed, and that II In idontlcal with tho Peaob of tho Kast, thon I will say no inoro. But. on tho othor hand, should ho dnuy olthor of' tho nhovo, 1 shall proyo thorn strictly truo." Now tlii.s eluilienge soenis to call on mo for u rospon.se, and yet JJdo not ro- niombcr to have made any statement in tho premises to Justify Mr. Jjuelling in throwing out such a chullengo tome. I liavo never to my rccolleetionjolth or staled tliat tho Pouch plum In con troversy was, ot was not identical 'with the 1'cach plum of tho Kast, or (that I did or did not origluato it. I liavo on ly staled tho manner in which J came In K)ssesslon of it,5wlthout expressing an opinion as to wlietlier.il was n now variety or an old variety, though I've a decided opinion of my own, formed by my own oxpcrieucclwith this and othor fruits, together with tho informa tion L 1 1 uvo gleaned from able and tie knowiodged pomologists and experi enced fruit raisers. Now if Mr. hiiellingcuii provo by any satisfactory evidence or authority, that the particular Teach plum now in controversy is not. identical with tho Poach plum of tho Kiust, one point lias been gained, and then it will ho almost certain that it was originated in tho manner 1 have stated. Tho fruit des ignated as the " Peach plum," in controversy, camo from a tree sup posed to bo the Poach plum, which I planted In IK5L'. Tho tree dying, ouu of its roots, having some vitality, threw up n sprout; from that sprout tho pres ent fruit lias sprung, from propagation, but whether that sprout camo from the graft or thu original stock I supposo cannot bo delluitcly known, save from the evidence that the fruit itself gives us on tho subject, and 1 am willing to allow the fruit ui plead Its own cuuso before any tribunal v, uero It may bo ar raigned. If it is a new and superior variety It Is well that the world should know it. If it is not, it is high time that tho people should bo informed of the fact. 1 do not see that there U any bettor way t.) settle the question tian by pul ling the fruit on trial before experienc ed fruit raisers and pomologists, and would suggest that during the coming season, at a time when the fruit itself can bo tested, Mich persons as may bo competent to Judge bo requested to meet at some suitable and convenient place and examine it thoroughly, and if fruit-raisers from other States will send Minio of their "Peach plums " of the Kast here for a comparison, it may do much to settle tho controversy aud for my part 1 will hold myself in read iness to send to any State In the I'nlon a box of this fruit, carefully put up, to be compared with tho Peach plum of other States. Mr. Ladling seems to be well posted in pomology, aud if ho can maintain his statements by proofs or authority, 1 will, for one, gladly ac quiesce. This fruit must not bo confounded with that I sent to tho Centennial In hibition and marked by me " l.ate Peach plum." This last fruit was from a seedling planted aud raised by myself. Tho name that 1 had given to this last fruit was changed at tho Centennial, anil called the " (1. W. Walling. TliN last variety ripens about ten days later than any other Peach plum that 1 know of, that mak ing the chief dillerence aud being the reason why I railed it the " hate Peach plum. The one in controversy is Known sometimes as the "Oregon Peach plum," aud sometimes as the " Walling Peach plum." In conclusion, 1 would be pleased to see tho plum known us tho Oregon Peach plum on exhibition before a competent tribunal of pomologists, side by side with the Peach plum of the Kast, and then I think tho contro versy would be at rest. (1. V. Walking. Life Insurance. Wo havo alluded to Llfb lnsuranco matlera at times, and havo drawn lossons from our own oxporlonco to show that tho Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company at Port land, costs us not much moro than half tho promlum wo pay in proportion to tho Now KoRland Life Icsuranoo Company, which Is onoof thooldostand host companies lu ex istence A llttlo figuring shows again that tho Pacific Mutual charges a groat deal moro tor tho oxponsoi of doing tho buslnosa than is rfocossary so bh to havo monoy to tllvldo among tho stockholders, so it stands to roa son that an lnsuranco company conducted strictly on tho mutual co-operativo plan would bo still loss cost. Tho plan wo suggest Is to havo n dollar de posited by each lnsurod, who shall ho dlyld od into classos, and whoa ono of a class dlos all tho monoy doposltod by his class goo? to his holrs and anothor deposit Is mado. Tho plan Is vory simple and easy of operation. It only noods facilities for co-operation, which aro found alroady organized in tho Orango. Tho clorical sorvico noedoil will not ho groat, ovon for a largo nuinbor of lnsurod, and tho yearly stipend to bo paid by oach ono for tho oxpouso account would bo much loss than any intorostod company would chvrgo.
