A PRETTY STORY. 



Practically all of the violets that are 

 in the great New York market, as well 

 as the other large cities or tne state, 

 are grown within an area of about twen- 

 ty-five square miles in Dutchess county, 

 and near the Hudson river. Farmers 

 and townspeople alike are engaged in 

 their culture, so that the industry em- 

 ploys hundreds of people and involves 

 an investment of probably more than 

 half a million dollars. This year it is 

 estimated that about 100,000,000 violets 

 will be shipped out of Ehinebeck, most 

 of them to the metropolis. In a few 

 years substantial fortunes have been 

 made in the production of these gentle 

 flowers for market. This man is point- 

 ed out as having made $20,000 in eight 

 years. That man is said to have saved 

 $15,000 in a short time; and these profits 

 are greater than those of blaeksmithing 

 or teaching school or the grocery busi- 

 ness. So the blacksmith of Ehinebeck 

 left his forge, built a greenhouse, and 

 became a violet grower — a radical change 

 in occupation. One of those who has 

 recently become a violet man is a school 

 teacher; another was a butcher; another 

 a street sprinkler. And after he has 

 closed his doors at midnight one of the 

 saloon keepers of Ehinebeck goes to his 

 violet house to see that the temperature 

 is as it should be and that the violets 

 are undisturbed. — Leslie's Weekly.
