Almond Grafted on Live Oak.
A story of unusual grafting in
vegetable life is vouched for by
Attorney John J. Wells and H. C,
Swain, at RedlingCal. 'fhey say
that on the farm of Julius Jen-
st*n, on Dibble Creek, an almond
has been grafted upon a live oak
and a pear onto a mulberry. Mr.
Jensen has been on the place only
for a few years and knows nothing
of the past history of the farm.
Pn the yard stands a magnificent
almond of the bard shell variety,
which produces every yean 1 a crop
of large almonds.
The tree forks at tire ground.
A foot and a half above the
ground, where one of the branches
is twelve inches in diwmeter and
the other half as large, each
branch suddenly enlarges and In
comes four inches greater in di
ameter. 'Phis spring, to the com
plete surprise of Mr. danson, he
discovered an oak shoot putting
forth just below the enlargement
on one of the branches. Exami
nation then showed that up to the
point where the enlargement ap
pears the tree is live oak. Who
did this strange grafting;-or when,
ito- unknowm ButJtfhe fact is pliiitv
that on each branch an almond
Was been successfully grafted on
to a live oak stump.
In the same yard, and a distant
only fifty feet, stands a pear tree.
About five feet alrove the ground
the pear wood'oommonoes below
that is a mulberry. Clearly this
is acaso of pear being grafted up
on a mulberry. This tree pro
duces excellent Bartlett pears.—

tells tho story of an Indian coolie

TP YOU WISH YOUR
Nb’ Advertising Signs.
bridge Commissioner best of
New York recently refused to con
eider a proposition from a “liesh
food” company, which offered the
city of New York $200,000 a yoaf
of placing huge illumlnatitig signs
on the new Wllliftmburg bridge.'
The ttctitfii of this official is j in
striking contrast with that of Park
Commissioner l’allas, also of New
York, who early in the year sublet
{he huge boards around the site of
the new public library td a bi 11—
posting firm.
When interviewed about this
matter Commissioner Best said:
“No advertising signs are per
mitted to be placed on any .bridge
owned by tho city. Not foif
$1,000,000 a year would any one
be allowed to detract from the
architectural beauty of the \Vil-
1‘iamburg bridge.”
Pointed Paragraphs;
If you insist on pointing a re

In a man, that which is called
conscience is largerly a fear that
he may be found out.
When an elderly man marries;
he is as liable to fib about His age
as tho average woman is about
hers.
Now up aild up; when you take
a good look at yourself in the
glass don’t you think. “Well,
I’m not such a bad looking tel"
low?”
Do not believe tho stories heard
about big salaries; you have told
Stories of this kind yourself and
know how unreliable they are.
