PLANTING TREES FOR TIMER
Prof. Lazenby. CT Carroll University,
Gays TO make timber plentiful, and
to render our climate more genial,
We must reclothe all rugged, broken
land and rocky crests. in fact every
acre that is not cultivated or is Guilt
waited at loss, with valuable forest
trees.
Flrst.-All ravines and steep hill
sides, all land too rocky to be thor
oughly cleaned of stone and plowed,
should be devoted to trees.
Second.-Protecting belts of timber
should be planted wherever buildings,
orchards, gardens, ETC., are exposed
TO cold, sweeping winds.
Third.-The banks of streams.
PONDS, open bitches, etc, should be
50 planted with trees that thew will
be protected from abrasion BY floods
and rapid currents.
All public roads should be belted
hv graceful, stately trees.
We should preserve, improve, and
VA'euu oUI eAlStlhS forests by keeping
mp a constant succession Of Young
growing trees OF the best varieties.
To 10 this it is necessary
Flrst.-To allow no stock to run in
woodlots for purpose of forage. This
should be a rule intiexible and relent
less.
>eeond.-Young growth in forests
should be thinned moderately and in.
diciously. Worthless varieties should
he cut out and valuable sorts should
lie trimmed up so as to grow tall,
forming trunk rather than branches.
Third.-Timber should be cut with
Intelligent reference to future growth.
Valuable trees that you wish to pro-
Eagate should be cut in the spring.
Those that you wish to exterminste
should be cut in August.

AN ENGLISH School BOYS Coz,
PosITIoN.-In competition for prize,
al English lad offered the following
essay on Columbus
Columbus was man who could
make an egg stand on end without
breaking it. The King of Spain said
to Columbus:
Can you discover America
Yes. said Columbus, If you will
give me a ship.
SO he had a ship, and sailed over
the sea in the direction where he
thought America might be found
The sailors Iuarreled and said they
believed there was no such place.
But alter many days the pilot came
to him and said, Columbus, / see
land.
Then that is America, said Column
bus.
When the ship got near, the land
was full of black men. Columbus
said, Is this America
Yes, it is, said they.
Then he said 1 suppose you are the
niggers?'
Yes, they said, we are
The chief said, i suppose You are
C1lumbus?'
You are right, said he.
Then the chief turned to his men
and said, There is no help for it; We
are discovered at last r.

THE SUSFLowER.-We agree with
a contributor to contemporary that
it Is surprising that 80 excellent
plant as the sunhower, especially to the
poultrymen. should be 30 universally
neglected. Considering its value. the
sunfower is the most neglected plant
in this country. Il il q plant
that will thrive almost anywhere, and
on any soil that will produce beans.
After a long and successful experience
in its culture, am satisfied that the
sunfower is a most useful plant and
may be utilized in several ways. AS
a food for fowls, it has no superior or
even equal, adding great brilIiarcy to
the plumage and promoting vigOr and
health. For feeding live stock also
it will produce very satisfactory re-
suits.
This plant is of great value in puri
flying the air in localities where ma
laria abounds. II is entirely exempt
from the attacks Of noxious insects.
When thoroughly dried the stalks
make the best and cheapest kindling
wood in such districts as Kansas, Ne
braska and Dakota, where fuel is
scarce and dear. In some sections in
the above states sunhowers are grown
by the acre for the purpose Of fuel
In Europe. especially in Russia, the
manufacture Of oil from sunfowel
seeds is a leading industry.
The culture Of the sunhower is the
same as that of corn, except the plants
should be /! feet apart in the row
No plant will respond to thorough
cultivation with greater profit than
the sunfower. 1t natures in this
latitude in seventy-fve to eighty.days
] grow the mammoth Russian variety
and consider it the most hardy, pro.
ductive and profitable at the same
time, the earliest to mature. This
variety originated in Central Russia,
and was introduced into this country
eight years ago by the Russian Men
nonite.. This variety has stalks 6 to
81 feet in height, and to , inches in
diameter. with heads as large in di.
ameter as a WATERFALL. Some spsci.
mems grow even larger, with large gray
seeds, providing they are thoroughly
cultivated.

49, IL is said that the wineeup has
occasionally circulated among the leg
islators. and some have even achieved
celebrity BY this conyivial disposition.
OF one who has achieved reputation
since as a lawyer the following story
circulate among his legislative friends:
He attended ball one evening. and in
the course of the festivities he became
somewhat too joyous. Seeing this,
one Of his friends approached him and
advised him to seek his room and bed.
The young lawyer said nothing. but
with great sOlemnity took a dollar
from his pocket and thrust it into the
hand Of his friend.
But / don't want money 7" said the
gentleman. Il merely suggested that
you 60 to bed"
Take it, take it," was the reply,
in the blandest of tones 1--WE charged
two dollars for a good deal poorer
advice than that.

Barley Wine in Armenia.

Among the Greek writers, Xenophon
gives the most interesting and complete
account OF beer in the year 40l, b. C. In
describing the retreat of the 10000 in
that year, he tells how, on approaching A
certain village in Armenia which bad
been allotted to him, he selected the most
active Of his troops, and, making a sud-
den descent upon the place, captured all
the villagers and their headman. One
man alone escaped-the bridegroom of
the headman's daughter, who had been
married nine days and was gone out 10
hunt hares. The snow was six feet deep
at the time.
Xenophon goes on to describe the dwell
ings Of this singular people. And in the
houses were goats, sheep, oxen, fowls,
and their young ones, and all the ami
mails were fed inside with fodder. And
there was wheat and harley, and pulse
and barley wine in bowls. And the malt,
zoo, itself was in the bowl and level with
the brim. And reeds lay in it-some
Long, some short, with no joints; and
when anyone was thirsty he had TO take
q reed In his hand and suck. The liquor
wAs very strong says Xenophon, unless
one poured water into IL, and the drink
was pleasant to one accustomed to IL.
And whenever anyone in frieDdliness
wished 10 drink to his comrade he used
to drag him to the bowl, where he must
stoop down and drink, gulping it down
like an ox.-"Curiositie Of Ale and
