THE Government, in its treatment
of the fighting Apsches, in the
Southwest, illustrates the Scriptural
text OF not letting the left hand know
what the right hand doeth. With
the sword in its right bandit is slay-
ing the rebellious and ra,ding Apach-
es, and with It's left it is doing out
rations to the families of those same
Apaches. As long as the Govern.
ment will provide for the squaws and
papooses, the bucks can keep on
the war. path.

The physical consequences of
death continue to battle scientists,
and instead of the progress of sci
ence adding anything of Importance
to what has always been known, it
has rather tended TO deepen the dis
tinction between the visible part,
which perishes before our eyes, and
that which we are ourselves, and to
show that this personality, with re-
specr to it's nature as well as to its
destiny, lies quite beyond the range

How They Grow Trees on the Prai-
RES
Correspondence st. Paul pionoer.pross.

Correspondence st. Paul Pioncer-Press
During the winter time cut cotton
wood poles, trimming them up and
saving them into pieces about one
foot long. Ia the spring, as soonIas
the frost will permit blowing, draw
deep furrow where the row of
trees is wanted, lay in the pieces,
using none less than two inches in
diameter, as far apart as desired,
turn furrow on the pieces, then q
third furrow as in blowing land, har
row a little--that is all. The trees
will come up from the pieces and
grow steadily and much faster than
cuttings or young trees set out. They
should, when planted this way, never
be cultivated, as they grow so swiftly
and tall the frat year or two, that
the wind will break someSof them off
unless they have weeds as a protec-
ton. The pieces of pole 1orms a
root and possesses sufficient sap to
make the trees grow. / have seen
trees planted in this way live and
thrive, though eaten off by the hop.
