Thank God for the
Oceans!
(Philadelphi Evening Times.)
There are eight great powers
in the world. When placed in
alphabetical order the list stands
like this:
Austria-Hungary. v .
France.
Germany.
Great Britain. ,'
Italy.
.Japan.
Russia.
United States.
They are all at War save the
United States. We have no un
gratifiied territorial ambitions,
and no boundary disputes, and no
commercial desires the fulfillment
of , which is sufficiently threaten
ed by the rivalry of other powers
to justify an appeal to arms. We
are assured of our place in the
sun by 3,000 miles of sea on the
east of us and by more than 4,
000 miles of sea on the west of
tsi.'ie cold salt water laves
our shores and tempers whatever
war iibirit there m ay be. It
makes our invasion of foreign
lands difficult and discourages
foreign nations from contemplat
ing any invasion of our shores.
Thank God for the oceans, and
may they never be reddened by
the blood of our citizens defend
ing their native shores!
Turpentine for the
Blight.
(From The Lenoir News.)
A friend tells us that the apple
tree blight, that seems to be
quite prevalent this season can be
stopped by simply opening about
three little places in the bark of
the tree, at different points about
the tree on opposite sides and
drop into these places, 3 drops
of turpentine iu each place. This
is simple and is said to have stop
ped the blight in some instances.
I will not cure the twigs already
blighted, of course, but it is said!
to stop the ravages of the disease.
