tains an interesting article ou tho rail?
way mileage of this country. It says
that it'is a notable fact that new rail?
ways arc domamled iu every one of tho
forty-eight States nud Territories iu
the United iStatc-s, except iu Rhode
Island and Idaho, while the number
end length of projected lines iu some
of these sections is surprisingly large,
uk for example:
In Texas 2,012 miles on -1 lines; Cnl
iforuio 1,890 miles, i t lines; Arkansas
1,377 miles, 21 pnes; Wisconsin BRR

From the foregoing it is ijuito evi?

The Messrs. Hale, of Connecticut,
v?ho own n big orchard aud nursery
near Fort Valley, in Georgia, seem to
be delighted with their investment,
Bays the Atlanta ('(institution.
In a letter written by one of the firm
to the newspaper of his home in Con?
necticut, Mr. Huie says that his 100.1 00
peach trees are iu a most promising
condition, anil that he sees every pros?
pect of n liue crop this year, the first
bearing year of tlio trees. Tho Con
?titutiou furnishes the information that
when the Ilaies started their enter?
prise they bun-tit a yellow piuo forest,
and their saw mill und planing mill
have converted the trees into a fruit
packing shed, cottages, big barracks
for the 200 hands employed in tiio fruit
?esson,boxej und other things required.
The orchard contains S87 acres, ami
the nursery contains rows of yonng
trees 1.2C0 feet long. Mr. Halo says
that with a productive soil, a genial
olimato and labor at odo quarter ol its
cost in the North, ho feels tempted to
greatly eularge bis nursery, as he can
pay freights mid beat all N ortherii
competitors. This is but ouo itibtunce
in many wbor? Northern ami Western
eettlcrs Lave declared their entire
isfaction with their investments in tho
South, runl what tho Messrs. llnio havo
done in Georgia can be done nuy where
elso in tho Southern country.

baa increased since 1890 from 1,699,082
