Planting Locust Trees.

AS several readers have of late signi-
fed their intention to plant locust trees
this spring, word of warning from L. N.
Bonham. we'll known Ohio farmer and
writer, will not be out of place. He says,
in recent Ohio Fdrmer, that the locust
is very difficult to grub out. when once
in possession of a soil, as it suckers
freely and persistently. He advises no
one to plant locust groves on ground that
can be used for any other purpose, "for
neither the planter nor his children will
be able to redeem that hand from the
dominion of locust. but on barren
hillsides or on untillable land, or where
fence stakes are desired, the locust will
do well to plant. Mr.. Bonham gives this
experience: 81 have knoll on my farm,
facing the south, which l had not in ten
years been able to get set in grass. 1t is
too steep and broken for cultivation.
The sun has such power on that hillside
that the blue grass, orchard grass and
clover all have burned out under the
August sun. In the spring of 1881 l
plowed it and set out 1000 locusts, eight
feet apart by four, and planted potatoes
between the rows for two years. Fair
crops of potatoes were obtained, and at
this time there is handsome growth of
grass all over the ground. Calves are
doing well on that hillside, and they
have an abundance of grass and shade.
1t will make delightful place for calves
or Poland-China pigs to Craze and rest
in the shade"

Chicago Produce Market.

Chicago. April 4 1895.
There was very little life exhibited in the trad.
ing on Change to-day. There were no advces
received from abroad, and no new features were
developed to influence the grain market much in
either direction. The weather was colder, which
had Il tendency to strengthen the feeling on
wheat and that market closed nc higher than
yesterday. There was light speculative trade
in corn, but good shipping demand held the
market firm, and it closed shada higher than
yesterday. A sharp interest was excited in Oati
by reason OF light receipts and a good shipping
demand. The feeling in provisions was easy
and prices for both pork and lard were shaded q

The third annual meeting of the Western
Cattle Growers Association convened al

A. II. Mccoy called the meeting to order,
and made a short, but very interesting ad-

Hon. Edward Russell, of Lawrence, Kan;
Major w. A. Towers, prominent stockman
of the neutral strip" or mo mans land,
as we'll as Vice President of the association,
Mr.. Arthur GOrham, who at considerable
length gave some facts connected with the
losses sustained by stockmen holding range
cattle during the Winter Just passed, and
other gentlemen followed. Upon the whole
the loss on stock belonging to this sssocia-
ton is not near SO great as many were led
to believe.
The attendance was much larger than
that of any preceding meeting, while
stockmen from the surrounding States and
Territories are in attendance.
The celebrated Dodge City Cowboy Band
was on hand and enlivened the proceed
ings with an occasional selection, each time
being warmly applauded. This is the
band that attended the National stock
meeting at st. Louis last Fall and won
much celebrity on that occasion.
THIRD DAYS SESSION.
The business transacted to-day related
principally to round ups, which will begin
on May 10th. Tim Holstein will be captain
of the Beaver District Company, and Wash
Mussett of the Cinnamon District.
Resolutions were adopted, giving special
orders against gambling and horse racing,
agreeing not to sell or dispose of any hides
bearing our brands except to regular mer-
chants along the line of the A., T. & s. F.
railroad, said hides to be accompanied by q
bill of sale, and authorizing the executive

Science and Modern Discovery

The present occupant of Sir Isaac New
tons Professional Chair at Cambridge
University, Professor G. g. Stokes,
+. & 8, delivered remarkable address
al tn Annual meeting Of the Victoria In
stitut>, London, towards the end of
June. Sir Il. Barkly, g. c. M. g.,
f. r. S., occupied the chair, and the au-
dience included many members of both
Houses of Parliament. Professor Stokes
gave an important account of the progress
of physical science during the past quar-
ter of a century, and, specially noted that
as scientific truth developed, so had men
to give up the idea that there was any
Opposition between the Book of Nature
and the Book of Revelation. He said
that for the last twenty years Or so one OF
the most stiking advances in science had
been made in the application of the spec
trocope, and in the Information obtained
with regard to the constitution of the
heavenly bodies The discovery that
there were in these particular chemicae
elements, which were also present in our
earth, exalted our idea of she University
of the laws OF Nature, and there was
nothing in that contrary to what We had
learned in Revelation, unless we were To
say as the heather did that the God OF
the Hebrews was the God of the hills
and not of the valleys. Entering with
some particularly into the composition Of
the sun, the Professor said this gave an
idea of an enormous temperature, since
iron existed there in q state Of vapor.
This was utterly inconsistent with the
possibility of the existence there of hu-
man beings at all approaching in charac-
ter to those we have here. Are we then
to regard this as waste of materials
Might we not rather argue that as in ami
