There is no reply to the sharp call, and the woman standing in the doorway of the Browns' farmhouse shaded her eyes with her hand as she looked denparingly up anl down the road. "That child will lie the death of me if she stays long," she murmured, stepping out on the broad stone step. "Never since the first day she came has she been within sight or sound when I wanted her! Exactly like her mother for all the world, always a dancin' and laughin' and happy, when, so far as I could make out, there was nothing to be gay ab:ut!" Tcrhaps the sharp gray eyes had never looked for the bright things of life that made her niece so happy. It is hard to judge others' thoughts and feeling justly without a glimpse into their heart, and few ever Iry to look deeper than the surface to form their judgments. Again the shrill voice called impa tiently: "Barbara! Barbara Grey! Oh, you're comin', are you ! Well, jest' run 'round the corner of the house and drive that pestering old guinea hen out of the yard! Its everlasting 'potrack, potrack' is enough to drive one wild." ''But where shall I drive it. Aunt Bess?" queried the sweet voice breath lessly, as the girl paused at the gate, twinging her big calico sun-bonnet on her arm by the strings. "Land's sake, Barbara, haven't you drove it out often enough to know it belongs to Mr. Berry at the next farm?" "Berry ?' repeated the girl, laughing; "is he the old man with the horrible temper, of whom you speak so often? Is he home from Europe? Suppose he should see me and come after me, Aunt Bess?" "Don't he a fool, Barbara Grey," said her aunt sharply. "Go along and do as I tell you. These are my grounds, and I ain't goin' to have anybody's guinea hens a squawkin' 'round fit to wake the deadr I thought the grounds belonged to Uncle Tom," the girl said mischievously as she disappeared around the corner of the house in pursuit of their next neigh bor's noisy hen. "Sauce-box!" exclaimed Mrs. Tom Brown, as she turned back into the big kitchen and went on kneading bread ; but there was a suspicious twitching around the stern lipa as she said half aloud, burying her hands deep in the dough, "If the old bear meets her, she wWt get the worst of it." Barbara Grey was a city girl of 1C summers, with plenty of money to do as she pleased, and being the only child of indulgent parents, the had much her own way. She was a dear little girl, however, with a warm, generous heart, and an impulsive but sweet disposition. v Having grown tired of fashionable summer resorts, she decided to spend the summer and fall with her mother's sister, Elisabeth Brown, who lived on a large farm among the Connecticut hills, where she tormented the good-natured farmer and bothered his wife until she often declared she would be the death of br. With light feet Barb ,r hastened after the speckled hen, waving the big sua-bonnet to frighten it away. Such a screaming' as the creature set upl It seemed hardly possible that one small hen could raise such a commotion. With flapping wings and ungainly gait she rushed back and forth, to and fro, blindly, wildly, almost provokingly. while breathless Bab made frantic en deavors to eo out the wide-open crate But that little bit of flesh and blood, a guinea hen, is the most aggravating creature in existence. Go out that gate it would not, ax.d all Bab chasing and racing and "booing" could not make it see the sensible side ox the argument. "You hateful, detestable old hen! I wish your ownerM keep bis chickens at home. where they belong! Oh, you horrid biped! Wait till I catch you, won't you get a shaking!" Evidently the hen intended to "wait," and Miss Bab grew frantic "I'll pull all your feathers out. see u I don t ! Ill cut your wings off; III choke you, you detestable old hen" Still the hen did not take kindly to these promises. Perhaps she did not believe them, for she still drew Bab in hot pursuit. Finally, tired out and panting, she ran blindly into the blackberry hedge. and perhaps thinking, as the proverbial ostrich does when ita head is hidden, no one can see it, the hen paused, and with a last desperate (Fathering of her remain ing strength, Barbara clutched it and flung it over the hedge straight in the face of the next neighbor! There, you detestable old hen!" "Confound you!" A pause. With wide frightened eyes Barbara Grey stood, sun-bonnet in hand, staring into the angry face of the terri ble neighbor beyond the hedge. "Well, Miss, I suppose you are satis fied!" The voice was cold as ice, and the blue eyes flashed straight down into her soul, Bab thought. But she neither faltered nor fled, but stood bravely In the broad sunlight, motionless, breath less. "Are you avenged? Have the sins of that detestable old hen been wiped out in my face?" Bab flushed and paled, but her brown eyes met his steadily. "I beg your pardon," she said gravely, suppressing her inclination to laugh, "bnt the noise of the hen troubled Aunt Bees and I tried to drive it away. Were you there all the while?" "I was reading in the garden when I caught the sound of battle and could not well help witnessing the encounter, novel as it was." He was laughing at her! Barbara drew herself up proudly. "At least the hen did not know any better!" she said. "And you did?" queried her tormentor. "Well, let me congratulate the victor, at any rate." She gave the extended hand a freez ing look, and turned away toward the house. "I don't wonder your hens act so detestably r she flashed. "Neither do I, with such a pretty neighbor!" was the reply. "It's a wonder you don't eat them np, you're such a bear!" called Bab, vanish ing aruund the corner and bounding into the sunny kitchen. "I've seen him. Aunt Bess, I've seen him!" she ex claimed, breathlessly, dropping into a chair, and fanning herself vigorously. Seen who? bat is the matter, child?" and Mrs. Brown actually dropped several specks of flour on the floor in her astonishment And Bab told her. Thev saw no more of the "horrid neighbor" for a whole week, but never a guinea hen found its way over the garden hedge. And one day a grinning black servant delivered at the farmhouse door a banket of exquisite fruit "For the young lady with the big eyes, he announced. And buried among the lucious grapes and white peaches was a note of apology ''f.r the rudeness offered to her that day when she was so tormented by that detestable o d hen of his." After awhile that neighbor of the Browns got in the habit of going over to the big farmhouse very often, and one day Barbara told her aunt confidentially: "He isn't old at all, Aunt Bess! He told me last night he was only 2D. And he is real nice looking when he doesn't frown and frighten one half to death. And before she went home, late that fall, she promised to return ere another year passed, and see that Aunt Bess was never again bothered by her husband's "detestable old hens."

Scmi-Tropical Exotics, and Indurenous Trees UKOWIXG SIDE BY SIDE. A Generous Climate and Fertile Soil, Illustrated by Tree aud Flow er Culture. From time immemorial, prophet and poet and orator have sung and spoken of the beauty of grove and garden and for est The Oaks of Mamre have their his tories embalmed in. the pages of Holy w-it The pines of Mother Ida are im mortalized in the srags of the Greek. Even the venerable chestnut lives in the verse of the Mantuan bard. Shakespeare makes Lear paint the thunder riven monarch of the forest in words which will outlive all the patriarchs of the grove that make England beautiful. The tenderest and most delightful memories of humanity clutter around and cling to the groves in which childhood wiled the happy hours away. To the stranger in a strange land, I doubt if anything ap peals with such irresistible force to his better feelings, as does the sight of some particular forest growth, associated with his early life, but from which chance or business has exiled him for years. Such was my experience in Salem on a pleas ant day last spring, when, passing the corner of Center and Front streets, I looked up and saw a mass of pink blossoms which I at once recognized as the flowers of the redbud. I had not seen a redbud tree before since the spring of 1857. The readers of the Statesman doubtless are not curious to know anything about the long train of memories and associations which this chance encounter with an ob ject familiar to my childhood, called up. It was pleasant nevertheless to look at It was indisputable evidence that the man who planted it had not forgotten the home of his boyhood; that he felt that it was good to have something to re mind him of hia earlier life and, most probably, his happier days. The plant er of this exile from eastern forests is akin, in spirit at least, to my old friend Wm. Itubottom of L03 Angeles county, who leaving his old home, Spadra, in the state of Arkansas, many years ago, had, in 187-4, succeeded in havinjf a corner lot in his California homestead trans formed info a perfect semblance of a pas ture lot in his native state. There nour ished elm, hickory, walnut, butternut, red and black haws, persimmon, pawpaw, Cherokee plum and a dozen, or more. other trees and bnshes which had afford ed him fruit and shelter from the noon day heat in the earlier years of his ex istence. .Near these reminders of his youth stood orange and lemon and tig and pomegranate and lime and Australian gum and pepper tree and grapes, of a score or exotic varieties, but "Uncle Billy." thought more of what he called his quarter section of an Arkansas swamp, than of all his delicious fr lit bearing trees and vines of Southern Cali fornia. Not long ago I piekefcup a stray pamphlet in, which the attractions of Napa county were recounted. The com- j piler of the pamphlet in question is evi- dently a man arter my own way of think ing, for he was at particular pains to enumerate the various eastern imiorta tions which certain citizens of Nana had added to their arboreal treasures. Many that I have already enumerated were "on the list" There Has to me a world of homesirknesH in the statement that in one of the Napa gardens there were sev eral Muscadine grape vines in full bear ing. Is there a man grown in the state of Oregon who, when a boy, ever went out on a hoiiday for nuts and grapes in a southern or a western state and found a good store of Muscadines, who has for gotten, or can forget, the delicious woody mnskines8 of the Muscadine? The Con cord, at its best, has something of the gamey flavor of the Muscadine. I might prolong this introduction but lack of space forbids. Suffice it to say that the German's love for the Kaiserblumen, the Switzer's for his eidelweiss, the Irish man's for hiiijahamrock, and so on, through tne whole rauge of nationalities, are but answering chords in a universal strum of harmony, a grand diapason which finds its utterance in the music of the winds which stir the loftiest trees, and gently move the most delicate leaf of a shrub or finest blade of grass. Uas the dweller in Salrra ever paused to think how full and complete is the provision made by generous nature and kindly climate and fertile soil for trans forming this city into one of the loveliest parks imaginable? There are. many to whom it is evident this idea has never presented itself, or else there would not Ik? so many treeless and flavorless yards in which are Wated comfortable modern homes. There are others to whom this idea has suggested itself with active force - so many, in fact that to enumerate the charms of half of their lovely homes would leave hnt little room to do justice to other claims which press upon the publishers of the Statesman- in this nnmlnr. The selections of homes made for illustrative purposes, are largely the work of chance. Let it be distinctly un derstood that the object had in view in preparing this article is to furnish infor mation to the reader abroad relative to the success which he may expect to an swer his efforts to make his home beauti ful with trees and shrubs and flowers. Within the next few years the population of this city, this county, this valley, this state, is bound to multiply exceedingly. We. all of as, as sensible citizens, desire to attract such home builders to Oregon as will, while adding to the general pros perity, contribute to the adornment, materially and intellectually, of the com monwealth. Let the eastern, or the foreign reader, therefore, who turns over the broad pages of this issue of the Statbmax, for information as to his fu ture home, take note of the fad that on the ample grounds of the Cooke home stead of this city, the following trees flourish, bud, blossom and fruit through out the year, unharmed by either heat or cold: Clematis Jackman is; Wisteria, three varieties, purple, white, and pink; Aristolochia. or Dutchman's pipe: Pyro canthus; Tree Peony; English Laurel, evergreen: Mountain -Ash; Red. Cedar; Pyrns Jr.poric.i, or Japanese Qninee; Smoke Tree, a Mexican exotic, which, before putting out its leaves in the spring, bears huge purple bunches of flowers, so fine as to resemble smoke at a short distance; English Hawthorn; Mon terey Cypress; and Yucca Flamentosa, a peculiar growth of the palm family, which un the spring time lifts np an enormous column of creamy white bells, numbering nunareds, to tne bush. In addition to the above enumeration, Mr. Thomas Met . ration, one of the household, in forms me that there are on the place twenty-two varieties of choice roses, bul bous plants, lilies, hyacinths, crocuses, etc, witnout number, patsies and nu merous annuals. Almost directly opposite the Cooke homestead is that of Hon. E. M. Waite, He presents the following list : Chinese Magnolia, a singular and very beautiful exotic, literally covered in spring, before taking on its leaves, with flowers of a del WJlt A fin TTla tin era rn st wVt ita mitii..1 Hall's Starry Magnolia, white; Clematis Jackmanis, with its profuse wealth of royal purpie Dioom lasting nearly tour months; Wisterias, five varieties; Wigelia, five varieties; Lawson Cypress; Golden Arbor Vita?; Stnartia Pantagenna. a shrub with a bloom like a lily; Kive's purple beech; Hydrangea Orandiflora; Salisbura, or Jinxo tree, from Japan; lncca r lam en toaa. from Mexuvt? VrimitAl HlU- English; Tamarac Africana; Rhus Glar- ba; Prams Persada, a shrub with black leaves, bark, and fruit; three English Rho dodendrons and two native from Coos bay and Taquina. The above list does not include an almost endless variety of anraDs, roses, duids and annuals. Probably a dozen or more homesteads might be found in Salem from which equally interesting memoranda might be obtained, but space for enlargement is lacking. I will however mention one or two more. Six or seven vears aco Can- tain L. E. Pratt purchased a fig tree, and a j apanese persimmon bush in Portland. lie planted them in his home yard and giving them only the scantiest care had no results from them until this year, when the fig tree bore as did also the persimmon. These plants have become fully naturalized and will doubtless prove the prolific parents of a bounteous frnit producing stock throughout the uiamette valley m the years to come. On Captain Pratt's place are several large black walnnt trees, probably twenty-five years old. These produced several bush els of nuts this year. His graie vines of me lsaliella, Delaware and lone varieties are prolific bearers of delicious fruit Plums, prunes, pears, apples and peaches make np his fruit list, while his Snow balls, lilacs, roses and other annuals add the beautiful to the useful. On the home place of C. S. Wood worth. rsn., some of the best results in orna mental shrub and flower growing no- ucenoie m tne city have been obtained. His Concord graies would challenge favorable mention anywhere, and as for cherries, ienrs, plums, etc., the product 01 uiB nair a block is simply surprising. I doubt not that a careful inquiry, note book in hand, amone the c-oxl ico- ple of Salem, would result in obtaining tne names of many other exotics which have !ecome naturalizexl in this moist equable climate. But when some one at a distance shall read this article and pos sibly come to the conclusion that it smacks of an advertising dodge, I wish euch per son, wnoever sne or lie may l, to turn to the meteorological table to lie found in anofher column and then put this and that together. There will le nothing ex travagant in my assertiorH to the fair minded, intelligent reader. I know the climate of the Pacific coast from San Diego to Port Townsend and from the mountains to the sea, and the Willamette valley can furnish quite as kxk1 an ar ticle bs the average. And there is no part of the whole region, in which what ever is beautiful and attractive in that class of arboriculture, and floriculture, which works out its best and happiest results through seasons which keep the regular order of spring, snmmer,'autumn, and winter, where happier ami more sat isfactory results can le obtained than in this pleasant city of Salem. As for the old fashioqed deciduous trees which leautify and glorify the landscape of the temperate zone it is hardly necessary to say that in this cli mate and soil they find full opportunity for complete derelorement The maple with its exuberant foliage covers side walk and half the road way with gencr erous shade in the summer; the white locust cbarms the eye with clouds of flowers; the Lombardy poplar lifts its cathedral like spires far alwive all lesser growths; Ash and Oak and Cottonwood and Balm of Gilead are native here and to the manner born. The woods and swamps are full of native growths which, if Grangers, would le considered rare ornaments to any wealthy man's park I ran best eWo these discursive re marks by saying in the words of Bryant that here, in Salem, as elsewhere, "Earth h not lot One of her charm; upon her Immm yet The fret-hue of her fair beginning lies And yet i-hall lie."
