The P:tr rs and the Centennial.

The Patrons in the vicinity of Phila-
delphia have appointed committee to
ascertain the probable cost of Grange
encampment. After consulting with a
prominent architect. they have come to
the conclusion that 900 rooms, by 10
feet, with windows for light, and properly
can be built for $4,000.
With this kind of an arrangement, it
will not cost more than $50 for board
per day. The proposed grounds will be
within two miles of the Centennial Park,
with cheap transportation.

Healthy Cherry Trees.

T. r. Elliot, in the Gardacr's .Inthlg
SAYS: Here it is again coinciding with
my practice and observation of grass.
Keep the ground loose around them the
first year then let them alone. Don't
prune or dig around them. but NOW the
grass that may grow, if you please, and
leave it on the ground. The Oil cherry
trees in New England that are now pro-
ducing abundan;ly,-vide those in Brad
ford at Cherry Hill so cs;lled,-have new
er been cultivated.

LAYING IN BUrTAR.-"Pipsy Potts"
says: 1t is a good time now for those
who buy their butter to lay in enough to
carry them through the winter. Buy of
some person who makes good, solid,
sweet butter; it is convenient to have
it put up in two-pound rolls; wrap each
roll in a bit of while muslin and pack
down in frkin or key; cover with
good brine, lay plates oyer, and then put
on clean weight, say block of marble,
il you have it.

What Followed the Locust.

The invasions into country of large
Numbers of animals, whether of men or
insects, are often followed by changes in
the vegetation of that country. Certain
" strange plants are said to yet mark
the path through the southern states
which Sherman's soldiers took in their
march to the sea, and number of plants
new to the country are known to have
been introduced into France by the Ger
mans during the late Franco-Prus>ian
war. SO the locust incursions and de-
castations in Kansas and Missouri have
been followed by some curious changes.
Among these, perhaps none are more
notable than the sudden appearance very
generally over the locust devastated re-
gion of what is usually called new grass.
Springing up wherever the blue grass
gets killed out, it proves a God send to
the people, for while it is young and ten
der, cattle like it and fatten upon it.
This grass is the Villa vagina fora, an
annual which is common from the At
lantic to the Rocky Mountains. Unno-
ticed during ordinary seasons, the de-
struction of the blue grass by the too
close gnaw;ng of the locusts, gives it the
advantage in the struggle for existence
An advantage which is soon lost, how
ever, as the normal relations between
species are assumed again in few years,
after the disturbing influence has ceased
to operate. Indeed, since the Villa RI
pens and dies early in the fall, the blue
grass gains ground the very first year,
and afterwards easily retains supremacy.
Tie widespread appearance of the Villa,
following the locusts, has been explained
on the hypothesis that the latter brought
the seed from the west and passed it un-
digested with their droppings. The fact
that the seed is line long, and not par
ticularly hard, aside from other facts in
the case renders such an hypothesis IN
reasonsble.-N. Y. Tribune.

MISSOURI KANSAS & TEXAS

The completion of the great iron
bridge over the Missouri river at Boon

The Original Confederate Flag.

At recent meeting the Palmetto Guard
were made the recipients of the first Confed
crate flag raised in the last struggle, and as
this banner was identified with the career Of
the company, it is doubly priced as relic Of
the past The donor, Mr. John S. Bird, OF
Laurens, an old member of the company, in
a letter accompanying the flag thus tersely
give its history: ''In 1860, before the pas.
sage of the ordinance of secession by this
State, Capt. Edward Mills, of the bark Jones,
belonging to the Palmetto line of New York
packets, raised this flag at his masthead in
New York harbor, and his vessel was mobbed,
but they could not compel him to strike his
colors.
"On his return gold headed palmetto cane
was presented to him by some of the Palmetto
Guard, and in turn he transferred to them
the custody of the fag The secession of the
State was quickly followed by aggressive mill
tary movements, and the flag accompanied
the Palmetto Guard in their various encamp-
ments. At the siege of Sumter it marked
their parade ground. and was used in the
truce-boat that met the United States barges.
The Palmetto Guard occupied the fort imme-
diately after the surrender of Anderson, and
this flag was the first raised on its walls
after the salute and before F. j. Moses, Jr.,
had arrived at the fort. The flag remained
with the company until they were mustered
for the war. and was then taken by Mr.. Bird
to his home, and has since remained in his
charge - Charleston Ne,os.
