CONCERNING FRUIT TREKS;
An Intcrcntlng I.cttnr from It. .1. (Sonr,
l'lnncur Ji'urscryiimii of llio Cuvu.
Cove, Or., Feb 7, 1888.
Emtoiih Feorr:
I (loom it n duty I owe to tlio public
generally, ns well ns to myself, to pay
it is untrue tlinl tlio fruit trees of Un
ion Nursery aro killed, or injured, by
tlio Into cold weatlior, It lias been said
and generally circulated in tlio Cove,
tlml Kueh wus tlio ciifco, and, of course,
when a report of any character once
is started it never glows any smaller,
heneo I consider it my duly to say
something on this subject.
In tlio winter of J8(17, when I graf
ted my iirsl trees for my nursery, I
look Kime of tho cions, or lirus, for
that purOHe,Jfroin tho old orchard of
Ir. Hamilton, (now the property of
James Payne) in the Cove, it being tho
oldest orchard to', to procure cionB
from. Now I want to say right hero
that what is now likely to terrorize and
and cause n panic with some people,
appeared then, which is this : When
I cut thoc cions, tho young wood im
mediately under tho bark appeared to
bo of a dark or brown color, as it np
nppenrs now with soiuo varieties. I
will say Unit f grafted those cions, and
I never had grafts to grow and do bet
ter than those, and as many as four or
fivo winters since. 1 Jhuvo grafted cions
in a worse appearing condition than'
tho above mentioned, with tho same
success.
If any of your readers of this should
happen to discover what 1 have do- j
scribed above, don t go, as tlio Dutch
man said by his boy "Tain fool," and
cut your trees down as some persons
did in tho Covo, after tho blizzard of
1885.
Five years ago when the great disas
ter occurred to tho orchards of tho
North Pacific, everyone can well re
member that November and Decem
ber was remarkably warm, growing
weather and tho sap being up when
tho mercury marked UO degrees below
zero on thol-lth of January following,
can any person of a reasonable think
ing mind believe for a moment that
fruit trees could conto through without
injury? Certainly not. Now compare
tho past fall with tho fall of 188-1. As
tho stockmen say, "tho stock has gono
to winter in good shape." So with the
fruit trees, They went into winter
quarters with tho sap in tho loots,
which will always save fruit trees from
tho sap blight. Tho fact of tho young
wood being dark colored is no proof
that the trees aro ruined, and had not
tho bark of so many of tho old trees
burstcd in the spring of 1885, no ono
would now be so enquiring as to the
condition of fruit trees. I don't hear
anyone say they havo seen a tree, old
or young, with hurst or split bark since
the last "blizzuid." The condition that
fruit trees wcro in live years ago was
as much diil'eront from last fall as day
is to night, the former with the sap or
lifo of tho tree in the body and limbs,
frozen, soured and lifeless; the latter
with tho sap or life-giving vigor of the
tree in tlio roots, well into"wintor quar
ters," jeady for its mission in tho
spring. I have no fears of injury to
fruit trees rd long as tho leaf-buds and
outside bark are green and fresh. To
correctly ascertain tho true condition
of the leaf-buds, taken sharp knife and
out square across the bud, well down
to the heel or eyo of same, and if the
bud is green and bright, you can just
go into tlio house and sit down and
smoke your pipe or cigar and bo hap
py, so far as tho safety of your fruit
trees are concerned.
Now in conclusion, 1 will say that
my fruit trees aro 0 1C in tho nursery,
and 1 have the linest assortment east
ol tho Cascade mountains, and will sell
them 50 per cent, cheaper than any
other nmeiy. Come and seo mo and
bo convinced. Tho quantity is iin
moiiM) and assortment complete.

character of the Council aro indicated
in tho accompanying 'H. It will lie
by far the moil important and influen
tial gathering of women that the world'
has ever teen.
American women, especially those
who sympathize with contemporane
ous movements for tho improvement
of woman's position in tho .State, the
Church ami tho Home, mid in edu
cational and industrial life, should not
fail to aid in insuring tho complete
success of this gieal International
Council. The expense; of conducting
tho Council will bo in proportion to
its magnitude and importance. Tho
National Woman Suffrage Asrociation
assumes tho responsibility of the en
tertainment, during the Council, of all
accredited delegates from American
nnd foreign organizations. To provide
for these and other necessary expentes,
wo expect from our friends more than
their usual liberality. Itemcmbcr that
no persons havo contributed more to
tho cause of woman's advancement
than those who have given to it their
time and strength. If you aro not so
situated that you can help by writing,
by speaking, or by active work, it is all
tno more incumbent upon you to aid
in the way that is within your power,
viz., by a, contribution of money Will
you not assist to tho extent of yoiu
ability? Money or pledges of large or
small amounts will bo most acceptable.
Persons may make themselves mem
bers of tho National Woman Sull'i-ago
Association, by tho payment of one
dollar ; all who do tin's will bo entitled
to the full pamphlet report of tho pro
ceedings of tho Council.
All contributions and membership

A Few Useful Hints For
Korvous People.
"j am so nervous" is a very common ex
pression, used by both old and young: and
very few can now be found who aro free
from nervous troubles. Wo l egret to seo
that the malady is rapidlyineroasing. And
from what cause? Thoro aro various reas
ons. It may bo beonpseof a low condition
of the general health; the vitility of tho
nervous system i depivssod; or from a,
want of perfect digestion and nssiiniliation
of food, and the vltilizing power of pure,
rich blood, the nerves are not properly
strentiiencd and nourslicd, and consequent
ly become woak and diseased.
There was a time when "nervousness,''
and that class of disease known as nervous
affections, were apparently confined to
ladies; but at tlio present day it is an un
doubted fact that a large a portion of nor
vous diseases exist among men as among
the gentler sex; and their distres-ing affects
and lasting and enervating results are a
thousand fold more serios, as they extend
to posterity and iv -e productive of a weak
ened and enfeebled ru e. Nervous and
physical debility, caused by
is a frequent and distressing .please, its de
pressing iufhieiu e being felt alike on both
sexes and all ages. Among tho first Sym
plons of this affection are usually a de
rangement of tho digestive organs. A foel-
of languor will be experienced, nnd 'a grad-
ualfalllng of strength, with general weak
ness and pain in tho buck. More or los ex-
haustation N experienced on waking in tho
themorn.sng. There Is often u bud tasto in
tlit mouth; tho vision becomes dim. tho
monioiy is impaired, ond tho patient is
troubled with frequent duziness. Persons
thus affected are often "desnondnnt. and
ruffer from gloom and depression of tho
mind. Tho nerves become so weakened
that tlio least excitement or shock brings on
a tremor or trembling, often nttonded fcby
polpatation cf the heart.
LADIES
Aro particularly suerptihIo to nervous
disordors, owing partly to their moro
elicate nervotn organization and partly
to their sedentary life and consequent
oontincinont in-doors. Such nffeotlons nro
attonded by rostleesiiess and nervous excite
ment, anxiety or doprosion o tho mind,
loss of interest in society and th,o daily af
fairs of life. There is also loss of sleep;
the patient on rhiug In the morning, feel
ing tired, languid aud unrefreshed. From
slight nervous attacks to hysteria, from sim
ple "nervousness" to utter prostration,
there are many aud varied forms of diseases
of the nervous sysUm none of which should
exist, and of all of which, i an be cured by
the use of
