The Milwaukee Wisconsin says: ''The reported
changes to be made in the Chicago, Milwaukee
& st.. Paul general officers, have been little
"of'' so far. The fact of the matter is, the
road has of late been growing so rapidly
that it has been deemed best to make changes
in the management of the freight department
Of the line. Heretofore W. G.. Swan has been
general freight agent of the road and all the
freight accounts from the several divisions of
the road have come to the general office. In
the change, which had been decided on month
ago, Mr.. Swan will hold the position of general
traffic manager, but in order to tighten up his
work and care, special freightlmanager will
be appointed for each division of the road.
The reason for the length of time that has
elapsed between the resolve and the action, on
the part of the officers, has been that they
could not lay their hands on just the right
men for the division managers. The change in no
way effects Mr.. Swan g position, except to re-
ieye him of part of heavy responsibility"

Graduating Weeds.

1t may not entirely reconcile the farm
er who has an adherence of those
tranips of nature, weeds, to assure him
that they are simply "plants out of
place." and need dissecting; and no
doubt the killing process will long be ia
practice. Weeds are, however, subject
TO determination if the right time is
chosen to accomplish the purpose, bui
SO long as the pastures and meadows
are producing weeds, and the infer
mented stable manure is applied to the
fields, so long will the battle be an even
one.
If one will study the plan of nature
and inform himself i'm regard to their
habits and manner of seeding, much
better war may be carried on. Weeds
are of really two classes: those that are
prOpagated both from root and seed,
and those from the latter alone. OF the
former, cutting them while In the BIOS
som, and then blowing the land, thor
oughly dragging it, and then sowing to
some quick growing crop like buck
wheat, that quickly deprives the newly
growing weed shoots of light and air.
followed by clover sown in both fall
and spring, so as to be certain of Il
catch, will choke them very effectually,
and in this way the Canada thistle can
be conquered, and the rule applies both
to daisies and other varieties.
The dock family can best be killed by
pulling up on the pillow fields, and in
meadows and about the buildings by
cutting off the root about three inches
below the crown with a mattock with Il
square-faced cutting edge. Two or
three times going over them will eradi-
cate them provided none are felt to go
to seed.
An old farmer at our elbow says that
blackberries can be killed by moving
them in May and again in August, and
then turning on sheep TO eat the tender
shoots as fast as they spring up. Or, if
sheep are not to be had, pillow the lot,
drag thoroughly with a bent-tooth drag
and SOW to rye. Milkweed, rag weed
and other varieties that grow from the
seed alone can only be choked out by a
continued use of the scythe. Let the
cultivation be as thorough as it may,
these tramps of nature will infcst the
fields to an extent proportioned to the
vigilance exercised in their eXtermina

only one. What do you ask for half a

half a can" 81 reckon you never sell
anything if you mark your goods up
that way. Suppose l take one whole
can, will you come down to a dinner"
Fifteen cents is the usual price"
"That may be with unreliable transient
customers, but am an old citizen of
Galveston, and the store that captures
my permanent trade will have to be en-
larged within six months. Say dime,
and throw in a pound or so of soda
crackers and its whack." "Do you

more than two months before I'll have

Good morning, sir. - atUesto,s NesOs.
SUN spots were noticed by the Arabs
in the eighth century, and many centu-
ries ago the Chinese observed dark
spots on its surface. In Europe, how
ever. no precise observations were
made previous to the invention of the
telescope. In 1910, Harriet was the
first astronomer to- observe them, and
the next year Calico also saw them,
but neither one nor the other observed
their motion. In 16I1, Fabricus, a
Dutch observer, saw spots on the sur
face OF the sun, and, after several days,
was satisfied that only the rotation of
the sun could explain their motion.
Later in the same year. Scheincr, at
lngolstadt. made observations, and
used, for the first time, colored glasses
as a protection for the eye.
