SOME WOMEN FELL IN LOVE
WITH THEIR HUSBANDS.

if those is ona question more than
another to which it is difficult to get or
give a satisfactory answer it is surely
this: “Why did you fall in love with
your husband V" In It) cases < \i of 20
woman would probably confess candid
ly that she <bd not snow or else she
would declare conclusively that she
did because she did, and that ought to
cud the matter.
In the rare cases whore tUo lady con
descends to declare her reason the an
swers are both interesting and in
structive.
“Whatever made you marry the pris
oner:'’ a London magistrate ask. d a
woman whose face bore “striking’’ evi
dence of her husband’s affection. "Be
cause he punched ail the other fellows’
heads,” she answered, “and nobody
else dared make love to me.”
Another good lady confessed that she
fell in love with her husband because
he was the “only mau who ever dared
to snub her.” While other men were
stumbling over each ether to pay her
court and attention, he always treated
her with absolute indifference and even
rudeness.
The consequence was that she de
termined to bring him to her feet and
his knees. She succeeded, but lost her
heart in the attempt.
“I fell in love with my husband.”
one lady recently declared, “because
he was the only man about whom no
one was ever heard to say an unkind
word. Even the women, although he
paid them no special attention, were
agreed that he was ‘a darling;’ and, al
though he was plain, almost to ugli
ness, and old enough almost to be my
father, I loved him and determined to
marry bint long before he had any
such thought of me.”
Not long ago a Yorkshire lady of
wealth and beauty shocked her friends
by marrying a poor cripple, it bad
come to her ears that he had long lov
ed her in silence and had counted each
day happy if he only caught a distant
glimpse of her. She discovered that
ite was a devoted sou and brother and
a man of unusual gifts and culture for
his humble position, and, moved by
one cf those sudden, generous im
pulses to which some women are lia
ble, she sought an interview with him.
told him that she had learned his se
cret and offered him her hand auu for
tune. This may r appear a strange and
improbable thing, but thousands know
that it is literally true.
Another lady whose marriage result
ed from a similar impulse gives this
explanation of it. Among the friends
of her family was an old bachelor with
a reputation for crustiness who had
known her from a child and had often
nursed her in early day’s. To her he
had always been gentle and kind, and
she had loved him “in a way” as long
as she could remember.
Cue day she said, “Why have you
never married, Mr. f
“Marry, my dear? Why, no cue
would ever marry a grumpy old man
like me!”
“Of course they would!” she answer
ed indignantly. “Why, I would marry
you raysedf!”
“Thank you, my dear!” came the un
expected answer. “Then we'll consider
the matter ended.”
In spite of her surprise and misgiv
ings the girl loyally kept her promise,
aud she has never had reason to regret
her “moment's indiscretion.”
A lady friend or the writer married
her husband for the very illogical rea
son that lie was an avowed woman
hater. He made no secret of his aver
sion to the fair sex and declared it so
constantly that, as she says, ”1 vowed
I would convert him and make him
change his mind, at least so' far as one
of my sex was concerned.” lie was
not difficult to convert, for within 12
months he had forsworn his creed so
far as to conduct one of the “hated
sex” to the altar, and now he declares
that he “loves them all.”—Tit-Bits.

the inspection last year was, from ne
cessity, extended through the month of
November and, indeed, a few unimpor
tant inspections were made as late as
December. The recent addition of an
assistant to the working force will
greatly facilitate the work in the future,
aud the inspection this season will
doubtless be completed within the pre
scribed time. •
The regular inspection work is not
begun until Aug. 1-5, but the business
methods of a few nurserymen require
an earlier inspection, and in such cases
the inspections may be made as early as
July 1. An inspection made before
Aug. 35, however, must be supple
mented by another later in the season.
The reason for delaying the work as
j late in the season as practicable is ap
parent when the life history and habits
cf the San Jose scale are considered,
this being the principal past for which
the inspection is made. In this climate
the scale is breeding and is capable of
being commuuicatcd to the nursery,
certainly as late as November. A cer
tificate issued upon au early inspection,
therefore, would give little or no assur
ance of the absence of scale from ths
tbe wooly aphis to show knots on the
roots. In cases of slight infestation by
the wooly aphis only fumigation or
whale oil soap treatment will be re-
required.
At the time cf the regular inspection
it will nor be possible to determine ths
extent of taese pesrs in the nurseries,
Nolire is hereby -riven that at the ap
proaching session of the Legislature a bill
will be introduced entitled:
AN - CT to establish the City Court of Way
nesboro, in and for said cnuulv of Burke; to
deiir.e its jurisdiction and powers; to provide
lor the appointing n? of a judge and other offi
cers thereof; to define their powers and du

aud only a few trees iu each block can
be pulled up for examination. Then,
after ail. we must depend largely upon
the houesty aud integrity of the nur
seryman for the enforcement of our in
structions. In this connection it should
be stated that we have had the hearty
co-operation of the Georgia nurserymen
in our work and it is largely due to
them that the law has been successfully
executed.
Iu addition to fruit trees the follow

Puro Pood Show at Atlanta.
In connection with the exhibits this
year in the Main Building of the South

lanta Oct. 9th and continuing uutii Oct.
20th, there will be a Pure Food Show of
elaborate proportions. Practically all the
greatest manufacturers of Pure Foods m
the country will be represented in this
show.
Scientific lectures and exhibitions will
be a part of this Food Show, which will
be of absorbing interest to housewives
and those directly interested in culinary
economy. Space aiiotted to this great

the original allotment may have to be
made larger. Free samples of the food
will be distributed to visitors.

PORTO RiCO TRADE TRIFLED
United Staten Sent All lint $2,000,000
of Her Imports Last Year.
The treasury department at Wash
ington has prepared a statement show
ing that the exports of American prod
ucts to Torto Rico during the last fiscal
year were more than three times great
er than the annual average while the
island was under Spanish rule. They
were more than 50 per cent larger than
the exports prior to the enactment of
the Porto Rican tariff law which went
into effect on May 1, 1900.
The total domestic exports from the
United States to Porto Rico in the
fiscal year 1S97 were $1,964,850. In
the fiscal year 1900, before the Porto
Riean tariff law, the exports were $4,-
2G0.S92. In the fiscal year ended on
June 30 last the exports were $G.8G1,-
917. These exports do not include the
foreign goods brought into the United
States and then shipped to Porto Rico.
Porto Rico imported during the last
fiscal year goods valued at $9,307,230.
All but $1,952,728 cf these goods were
from the United States.

of a satisfactory inspectioa before Oc
tober. Ic,is clear, too, that iusc-ct inju
ries and disease effects are more con
spicuous near the close of the growing
season.
A certificate at best does not give un
qualified evidence of the entire absence
of seriously injurious insects and dis
eases. It is proposed, therefore, to
make the inspections under th8 most
favorable conditions and to make sup
plemental inspections after the stock is
dug, whether the surroundings are such
as to cause suspicion. As complete an
assurance as possible of the cleanliness
of the stock is thus obtained, and it is
hoped that there may be established,
thereby, a confidence iu the products oi
the Georgia nurseries equally advanta
geous to the nurserymeu and orchard-
ists.
Some nurserymen have a careless habit
of leaving old, unsalable stock heeled in
on their yards from year to year. This
practice affords a harboring p'lace for
insects and diseases aud we strongly
condemn it. A case in point: Last year
the writer found San Jose scale in a
bunch of old stock heeled in on the yard
of one of our nurserymen; and, al
though no scale could be found in the
nursery blocks, the regular certificate
couid not be issued to the owner.
Whenever such conditions are found
our certificate will be whithheld until
they are oorrected.
Aside from the San Jose scale the
following are on the board’s lict of dan
gerously injurious pests: The new
peach scale, black knot, peach yeliows.
peach aud plum rosette. None of these
have yet been found in any of the nur
series, but with the exception of the
yellows they’ all occur in the state to a
slight extent, and are carefully locked
for when the inspections are made.
Last year 70 nurseries were inspected,
four of which where found infested
with San Jose scale, and from the
owners of which the regular inspection
certificate was withheld. It should be
clearly understood here that no nursery
man whose premises are found infested
can obtain the regular certificate. A
nurseryman, a portion of whose prem
ises is infested, but in such a man
ner as not to endanger the remaind
er, may bo given a special cer
tificate; provided, however, that all
stock growing in the infested portion
shall be destroyed and the remainder
fumigated under our personal supervis
ion. Likewise, where a nursery is lo
cated in a scale infested neighborhood,
even though no scale can be found on
the nursery grounds, fumigation will be
required and a certificate wili be given
to the owner of such a nursery only
upon the conditions expressed iu writing
that he will fumigate every plant before
it is sent out. This requirement is based
upon the following ruffi of the rules and
regulations adopted by the Board oi
Entomology Jan. IS, 1899:
Rule 9.—The state entomologist shall
have power to require any Eurservmau
of the state to fumigate his stock with
hydrocyanic acid gas when in his judg
ment the presence of any pest in the
nursex-y or in the neighborhood of the
nursery warrants such treatment for the
better protection of the agricultural in
terests of the state. Upon failure of au?
individual, firm or corporation to com
ply with tnis requirement, the state
entomologist is hereby authorized rc
withhold his certificate from the same.
Some of our nurserj-men, even though
not compelled to meet the above require
ment, have voluntarily adopted the
plan of fumigating all stock (including
buds and grafts) grown or handled by
them. We most urgently advise ail
nurserymen to adopt this plan, not only
as a precaution against the San Jose
Buying and re-selling plauts is certain-
ly a legitimate business and we have
made provision whereby dealers may
readily comply with the law. The
dealer must furnish this office with the
names of all the nurserymen from whom
he proposes to purchase stock, and if our
recoi'ds show that ail of them have met
with the requirements of the board, a
certificate to that effect will be granted.
Also wherever practicable the stock
handled by dealers will be re-inspected.
All nursery stock offered for trans
portation must be plainly labeled with
the official inspection certificate iu ac
cordance with the following rule of the
Board:
Rule 4.—Any trees, shrubs or other
plauts commonly known as nursery
stock, shipped within the state of Geor
gia, without each box, bundle or pack
age (in each oar load, or less than car
load lot) being plainly labeled with an
official entomologist’s certificate to the
effect that the contents of the same have
been inspected aud found to meet with
the requirements of the board of ento'
mology, iu accordance with section 10
of the-act cited above, shall be liable to
consfication upon the order of the in
spector.
Any nurseryman upon application to
this office, «7ith dimensions of his fumi
gating house, will be furnished the
formula and fnli instructions for fumi
gating. When desired, if necessary, we
will personally superintend the begin
ning of the work,
The formula that we have adopted is
1 ounce of porassium cyanide (98 99 per
cent), 1 1-4 ounces of commercial sul-
phuxic acid, 3 ounces of water to every
100 cubic feet of space in the room;
time of exposure 50 minutes. Oar ex
periments nave shown that the time
may be extended to Gne hour without
danger of injury to dormant trees.
We wish to give notice here that all
fumigating houses should be placed in
order for anproval at the time of nursery
inspection.
So far as possible the nurseries will ba
taken up systematically with respect to
location, iu order to avoid traveling over
the same ground more than once. It is
hoped that demands for early inspec
tions will not materially interfere with
this plan; but when for any good
reason a certificate is desired in ad
vance of our schedule we will arrange
for an earlier inspection.
