put in more tr'es now were it not
'lor the diflienlty ol digging the

lie expects inside of a year to have
100 acres all set out lo apples. With
I .Mr -Jones making such a start it
will not be a difficult thing to get
many cthir men to have good or
chard laud to do likewise.

i In our last article the contents of
the eyeball were described; this
i time we wiil talk ubout the coats of
i tt:e eye. ui tuese mere nre taree,
e: the Sclerotic, or outer coat, the
J V iiui uiu, t'i iuiuuic turn, uuu tuc
Iief.na or inner coat.
The Sclerotic coat is a thick,
tough, white fibrous structure, the
front part of which is commonly
called the white of tho eye. Thia
is covered with a very thin, trans-
1 parent membrane, caled the Con
'junetiva, widen gives a brilliant
! luster to tho white of the eye. The
I Sch rotic joins the cornea in frout
; and the optic nerve in back where
it i thickest.
The next or middle coat, the
Choroid, is composed of a dense
j network of minute capillaries and
j veins. .Uctweeri these nro cells
'containing dirk colored pigment.
I The Choroid extends as far for-
ward a3 the ciliary muscle, and
j there ends in a little plaited frill
around the Crystaline leus called
the ciliary processes.
The third, or inner coat of the
eye, cdled the Retina, is a direct
continuation of the Optic nerve
which comes from the bruin. The
i Ki'tim lines thy whole interior of the
oveball as Jar forward ai the Ciliary
rocesess where it ends in a jagged
margin. Has is the nervous meui-
braue of the eye and may bo com-
pared to tho sensitive plate of the
camera because the picture of the
; object looked at is imprinted upon
jit. At the entrance of the Optic
nerve, or Porn Opticus,! here is no
vision. This i cilbd the blind
