The affair was one of the most pleasing entertainments entertain-ments given in the city this acam, and reflects a great deal of credit on the ladies who had the affair in charge. AS LOUGHXEY 6AW IT. Editor Independent The entertainment given by the ladies of the Relief Corps of the G. A. R. at the City hall the other evening was well-named, for it not only re- minded us of the liberty-loving and j self-sucri!lcing Puritans, but it was conducted by the same noble women who will always be loved and respected respect-ed by all old soldiers of the civil war. There was no old veteran present that evening, but. who will remember the noble work of the ladies of the sanitary commission and their great worlj on the battle fields,, in the hos-. pitals, and in their care of the starved prisoners from Audtrsooville. The ladies who gave that entertainment are endowed with the same patriotic sentiment, aud deserve the encour-Hgementaud encour-Hgementaud respect ufall. It goes without uaying that they have the Hipr 01 1 of ail veterans of the great fctiuggle for the life of the nation. Titos. Louoiixjsy. THE MACCABEE BALL.

The hall was decorated with the colors of the order, and the pictures of Supreme Su-preme Commander Markey and Supreme Su-preme Record Keeper N. S.

Was Severely Stayed With by The Maccabees Last Xijht. One. of the most pleasing events in asocial way yet given in Springville this season, was the surprise party tendered Mr. I. N. Whittaker by his brother K. O. T. M., last, evening, the occasion being his 39th birthday anniversary. an-niversary. The Sir Knights and their wives, aVtout thirty in number, aimed with baskets tilled with all kinds of toothsome viands, swooped down on him at his residence in the First ward at 8:30 in the evening, The time was vvhiled away by card and crokinole games, songs and music.

Varieties that Have Stood the Te3t. New Sorts.-Cbolctst Fruits of all Kinds May be Grown. Secretary Wright, of the State board of horticulture, has issued i a builetiu containing much valuable information in-formation for the orchardists of the northern half of the State. It is as follows: In response to numerous inquiries, the following list of fruits is presented present-ed as suitable for the northern horticultural horti-cultural district of Utah, which includes in-cludes Sa.t Lake county and all that portion of iha State iying north thereof. The varieties are not set down as absolutely best, since outof the abundant good things it would be difficult to s;iy just which ones arc "best." The aim is to furnish . a guide to the farmer, by presenting a, list of standard fruits that have proven suitable to this section. No list short of the entire cata logue could cmtain all the desirable varieties for family use and home market, since, with reasonable care, the choicest fruit of every class may be grown here and the connoisseur may gratify his taste by producing the most tender varieties. It is, therefore, sufficient that a list of fmits for a commercial orchard be given here. In selecting varieties for this purpose the main points to be considered are, hardiness of tree, regularity of bearing, longevity of tree, size and color of fruit, firmness in shipping, quality of fruit and keeping keep-ing quality. In the above points many varieties are lacking, so that the most attractive specimens may be in fact the most unprofitable fruits to grow on a large scale. j The list herewith is made up aftjr cpnsuHaj,io.n wjth .jfiowers and, shippers ship-pers throUfjhout northern Utah and is based upon actual experience. APPLES. Jonathan, Wine Sap, Ren Davis, Baldwin, Rome Beauty, Rhode Island Greening, White Winter Pearmain. PEAKS. liartlett, Seckel, jsheldon, Howell, Anjou, Easter, Winter Nelis. CHEHUIES.

In the berry fruits, the principal demand being for home market and family use, the range of choice is more extensive. Persons contemplating contemplat-ing planting may usually obtain from neighbors plants and vines of suitable suit-able varities that have been well tested. In addition to the above fruits there are new candidates for public favor, many of which are quite promising, prom-ising, as, for instance, the Gario apple, ap-ple, the R;iney pear, Giant prune and numerous fruit novelties that will undoubtedly prove of great merit. Other lists might be made, since there is groat diversity of taste in the selection of fruits, but the above i probably as near the general average of the profitable producing orchards as could be compiled. Trees of the above varieties planted in number sufficient to produce carload lots (not less than 100 trees of a kind) will undoubtedly un-doubtedly prove satisfactory if well cared tor. Any special information desired will be cheerfully furnished upon application. ap-plication. J. A. Wricht, Secretary Utah State Board of Horticulture. Horti-culture. Ogdeu, Utah, Nov. 20, 1897.

THOUGHTS OF THE KDITOR3. The moral quality of the literature we read is what docs us good. If we read ten cent novels w are just filling fill-ing our minds with "iUifT." The nature of such novels are demoralizing demoraliz-ing to toe readers' nature, which, in many cases, arc gentle and rellued, while if they read g ,od books it refines re-fines and elevates them. The development de-velopment of love for the beautiful Is cultivated by reading good books; study and understanding the beautiful beauti-ful thoughts in the sentiments. Correct Cor-rect taste for literature is also gained bj studying aud understanding that which we read. Of course, by correct taste we do not mean the deepest pieces, for some authors have beautiful beauti-ful thoughts and still we can easily understand them, while others we have to ponder upon to get the beautiful beauti-ful thoughts of the authors. In reading read-ing good books we cultivate good language; in th sway: Good authors always use good language, therefore, by reading good books we cultivate good language. We also cultivate correct expressions if we consider the thoughts and the way the author expresses ex-presses himself, and thus we get a feeling of admiration for good literature. litera-ture. In society we often need the useof lilerature.becausea good author is very often referred to and if we know nothing about them we are at a loss to know what to say, and might, as one young lady once said when asked how she liked Shakespeare, she answered, "I think that is quite i pretty name." And very often a quota I Ion from some author comes In very appropriately. In entertaining company it is nice to know something of good authors and their works, because be-cause they are always interesting. Notice.
