The “Homestead” tells its readers that “no nobler career is open to young men than New England agriculture of- fers. The man who is a good farmer, who pays his debts, raises and educates a family, does his private duty in town, county, state and national affairs, and faithfully executes the political, social or religious trust reposed in him by his peers-that man’s life is full of all that is best in this world. He may not acquire millions but he does obtain a modest competence upon which to live ‘ in comfort.” ' -. Enormous Peach Orchard. The Courant gives the interesting information that its Agricultural Editor. Mr. J. H. Halo is at the head of a mon- ster new peach orchard propigatiou here in Connecticut. It says that “the Hale & Coleman orchard at Moose Hill, near An4sonia, contains 100 acres of peach trees and is to be con- ducted on a grand scale. The land was bought last spring. It has been leveled and cleared and roadways out through it. It will be three years before the trees will bear. They are to be set out next spring. The trees are to be shipped from J. H. Hale’s orchards in Georgia, to which place Mr. Hale has gone to make preparations for their transplanting. As the trees are for Mr. Hale’s own use, only the first-class stock will be brought and those will be of varieties best suited to this climate. Over 15,000 tre 15 will be needed. Michael Coleman, the local manager, has a private'orohard of 2,500 trees. It is probable that $15,000 will be spent before there is any income. Mr. Coleman says theprospects for a large crop in Connecticut next year are excellent. The trees, having had a rest WEEKLY NORWALK GAZETTE this season, have grown well and prev sent a hardy, healthy look. They ‘are covered with buds, which, if nothing happens to them, will next spring burst into bio )m and later till the trees with fruit. .0. Art of Being Patient. The Bishop of Manchester, in an ad- dress to young men, advised them to learn the hardest lesson in 'the world, the art of being patient. He said, “Do your duty, and leave success to take careof itself, and then you will see the wisdom, of the old proverb, ‘Every- thing comes to the man that can wait.‘ You know, for instance, how hard it is to learn a difi‘icult subject. All the ideas are unfamiliar, all the words are unfamiliar. We go on laboring, and seem to make no way. Now that dis- heartens nine students out of ten—the nine out of ten that will always be ob scure people—but the tenth man goes on. He works harder and harder, he lets his mind play around the subject, he lets the ideas of that subject soak into his brain, he is determined that nothing can possibly resist efifort, and one fine day a great flood of light comes in—he suddenly sees all about it; his work is easy, his work is de- lightful. Everybody says of him. ‘What an amazing amount of ability that young man has!’ No it was not ability—it was patient perseverance. The man had learned to labor and tr wait.” NOTICE License Applicants.
