“Tea” School.
The oddest school in the United
States is now in daily session at Pine-
hurst, Summerville, S. C., says the New
York Journal. Uncle Sam’s paternal
and financial part in the institution
makes it of interest to the nation, It
is situated in the heart of the tea lands
about Summerville, and its odd feature
is the curriculum. Under the super-
vision of a competent teacher thirty
South Carolina pickaninnies are
taught the three old fashioned R’s—
“readin’, ’ritin’ and ’r’thmetic”’—and
tea picking. And the last is not the
least important study. The rapid de-
velopment of tea raising in the South
has received additional impetus from
the announced intention of Sir Thomas
Lipton to invest $500,000 in tea cul-
ture in South Carolina. Sir Thomas is
familiar with the soil and climatic
conditions of the state, having at one
time worked as a laborer on a rice
plantation in Georgetown county.
The United States Department ot
Agriculture is taking a lively interest
in the “tea school,” and has given it
financial aid.

Crosses the circle of camp-fire light;

‘I wish to look at fans—party fans,
if yon please.”
Ellen Purple swept into the fancy
store, her gray silk suit rustling softly,
the long, wine-colorel, willow plume
drooping over the brim of her hat, and
her dark, brilliant eyes sparkling with
health, good humor and exercise. She
was a pretty brunette, with black eye-
brows, long lashes and the cream-
tinted skin which is like velvet, so
soft, fine-grained an1 clearly colored.
What a contrast to her was the
fragile girl, standing behind the
counter in her shabby de beige dress
with a dyed ribbon bow at her throat
and a frill of mended lace encircling
her slender neck. But this world
offers us contrasts at every step.
“Do you wish white or colored?”
the latter asked.
**‘Oh, I don’t know. Piuk, I sup-
pose,” Ellen Purple answered, ater a
second of two of consideration on the |
momentous question.

shook her slender frame.
Miss Keturah Purple, Ellen’s mai-
den aunt, looks at her with eyes of
kindly pity.
“My dear,” said she, ‘you have a !
very bad cough.”
The girl smiled sadly.
“I have had it this long time,” said
she.
“You ought to go home und nurse
yourself up, instead of standing he e
in all these dranghts,”” counseled Miss
Purple, who had a cheery, dictatorial
way with her, like one in anthority.
‘Yes, I suppose so,” said the girl.
“But we are very poor, and my wages
are all my mother and I have to live
upon, and —-"’

she. “““T'welve is all I have to pay.

As she spoke she closed the fan so
suddenly that one of the sticks slip-
ped out of place and tore a jagged
rent through the exquisite point lace

guiltily, and, glancing aroandto make
sure that no one was looking at her,

“It was only an accident,” she told
herself, and the shop-girl brought a
new box of faus for ler inspection;
“I am not to blame. No one can ex-

And pushing away the large box
she turned her attention to the new
fans, and finally settled upon a pretty
rose-colored article, edged with Span-
ish blonde, which came nearer the
sum she had appropriated for her fan.
“Well,” said Aunt Keturah, “are
you suited?”
‘At last, auntie!”
“Then let’s go,” said the old la ly,
“‘or I never shall get an opportunity
to buy my furniture, chintz and un-
bleached muslin. Fans and lace yoc-
ket handkerchiefs and pink sashes are
all very well, but they're of no use in
a housekeeping point of view! No use
at all!”
Ellen Purple went to the party in a
dress of rose-colored silk, w.th an
overdress of Swiss muslin, and the
prettiest of sashes, looped artistically
over it—and she was very happy. Ab, |

side of human nature and sip the
sweets from life’s cup, rezardless of 1

‘““But are they quite certain that

the girl. “They always do. But she

‘Yes, I do,” said Ellen, peremp-

through lack of moral courage, to fall

were more serious than she had

IN AN APRICOT ORCHARD.
How the Frait Is hered, Dried and
Prepared for Market,
As soon as an orchard of apricots
comes into bearing, advertisements
| ave inserted in the newspapers of ad-
joining towns for women and girls,
Thonsands of women leave their
domestic duties, taking with them
| their families, to engage actively in
the sheds of the ranches, cutting the
fruit for drying, after the men have
collected it from the trees.
| Sometimes 500 people will be en-
gaged upon a large orchard. Rules
and regulations are laid down for their
conduet; the women and girls sleep
in the tents provided at a low rental
by the management, and either cook
for themselves or board with what
would be termed in railroal circles a
‘‘boarding-boss.”” The men, not so
many, occupy some distant part of
the orchard. The sole requisite being
the ability to pick and cut fruit, an
aggregation of humanity representing
all classes of society, from the im-
pecunious English family with eulti-
vated manners and aristocratic connec-
tions to the nondescript who travels
from town to town in search of em-
ployment, is collected together in
industrious activity for the revenue to
be derived. |
Fach woman has a small tray in
front of her, and, after cutting the
fruit with a knife, she lays it open on
the tray. Each tray is furnished with
a raised end; when five are filled they
are piled up, and the operator shouts
“Tray!” whereupon an attendant ap-
proaches, punches a ticket with which
she has been previously furnished, and
takes the five trays to the sulphur
house.
| The women are paid 10 cents a bos,
‘each box containing €0 pounds of
fruit. All fruit has to be placed in |
the sulphur house for several hours |
for the purpose of bleaching it, or
| causing it to retain its natural color,
as well as to destroy all insect life that
may remain, otherwise the sun would
canse it to turn black. The trays are
then carried out and placed upon the
ground under the steady rays of the
glorious California sun. Should
clouds be hanging over, the trays are
placed one above the other until that
| great purifier and dries of the uni-
verse, old Sol, makes his appearance.
The fruit requires from three to
seven days to dry. At the end of this
time men go out into the orchard with
what are callel ‘‘sweat-boxes,”” and |
scrape from the trays all the fruit into |
these boxes, in which it is left until
fully dried.
Finally it is hauled to the store-
houses and piled up in heaps, perhaps
1 10 feet high, awaiting the eye of the
$FOR FARM AND GARDEN. ®
VO IOUT
Grain for tl:e Sheep.
Some breeders do not feed grain to
their ewes except at breeding time,
but there is ha dly a doubt bat what
a farmer would gain financially in the
end by feeding it in small quantities
all the time. If you use corn there
would not be much loss, and certainly
time saved, by feeding it in the ear,
for it is ciai ned by a great many that
it does not pay to grind the grain fed
to sheep.
The Currant Worm Giving Trouble,
A correspondent from California
writes saying that last spring her
gooseberries had small worms or in-
sects inside before they were ripe and
asks for a remedy. The worm is no
doubt the one known as the currant
worm, which attacks currants as well
as gooseberries.

Weekly Witness.
The Use of Sweet Clover,
In an address at Sedalia on soil
renovation by Dr. H. J. Waters, dean
of the Missouri agricultural college, it
was said thdt the common sweet clover
is not the pernicious, dange:ous weed
80 many seem to think. It can be
easily killed out by mowing twice a
year for two years, he said, and it is
one of the most valuable soil renovat-
ors known. It will grow and thrive
on land too poor to grow clover or
cowpeas, and it is especially suited to
build up the millions of acres of flinty
hills that are now absolute waste,
growing up in brush. Expzriments
made at Colnmbia show that in this
quality of soil sweet clover is move
valuable than the ordinary clover.
After a fe v years of sweet clover, such
soil is built up to a point where it will
grow other renovators. In such lands
it can be easily seeded and will
smother other weeds, and in addition
it will furnish as a by-product large
quantities of honey.
The Hen and Her Care.
Every keeper of pouitry should hav
a light, warm house and one that is
convenient for feeding and caring for
the fowls. It should be built in a
warm, sunny place, where it will be
protected from the cold winds. The
front of the house should be to the
south, and it should have windows |
enough to admit plenty of sunlight, as |
the sun will help warm it in the win-
ter. There should be a walk running
the entire length of the house on
the north side, so you can feed
and get the eggs without going
into the pens.
water tank should be made in the
shape of a drawer, so you can pull
them out and keep the birds from
getting into their feed and drink when
you are feeding and watering. The
nests should also be made so that they
may be drawn out as you do the feel
boxes. The windows are to be cased,
the same as they are in the hous: so
that there will be no cold wind enter-
ing. Cold draughts are sure to make
your birds sick and stop them from
laying in winter.
Suggestion to Fruit Cultivators,
Many of the tender or half-hardy
varieties of raspberries and bla
berries would endure our severe win-
ters much better, if in the late fall the
cultivator was run between the rows,
throwing the earth toward the stems,
and in effect 1idging or hilling up
around them a little. This loose earth
forms a muleh which prevents fre-
quent freezing and thawing, and i
has the great advantage of being a
mulch that can be quickly and cheap-
ly applied, compared to the labor of
ringing mulching material from other
places and putting it in place. To be
most effectual it should be done as
late in the fall as possible, and if de-
layed until some morning when the
ground is frozen an inch deep, oi
about that, it will be none the worse,
as the success depends much upon the
earth that is thrown up being light
and voius.
The fall trimming, pruning and cat-
ting cut of old or superfiuous canes
should be done before this, as it facil-
itates the working among them, and
all the wood removed should be taken
away and burned to destroy any in-
sects or their eggs and any fungous
diseases that may be on or in them.
We do not doubt that similar treat-
ment would be beneficial to the half
hardy roses and many of the shrubs
on fhe lawn, excepting that some of
them are better trimmed in the spring.
But the hilling up around them will
help to protect their roots.

Keep Your Stable Light,
‘When in a darkened stable the iris,
or brownish curtain around the centre
of the eye, expands so as to admit the
passage of sufficient rays of light for
distinct vision, but on emerging into
the glare of day the same aperture im-
mediately closes or grows less, a
smaller quantity of light being neces-
sary under these altered circum-
stances. Any person who has felt the
