Planting Big Shade Trees.

American ingenuity is equal to the
moving of Brighton Beach hotel, weigh
ing 5000 tons, distance of 800 feet, yet
IS, apparently, inadequate to the trans
porting of a growing tree weighing half a
ton, cheaply and safely, distance of a
mile or less. An American will plant a
tree no thicker than his wife's wrist, then
with a patience born of faith and hope,
wait from fifteen to twenty-five years be-
fore its shade will refresh him and pre-
vent the sun from making a Sahara of
his little suburban half acre. The pres
ence of q good sized maple or other de-
sirable shade tree SO greatly enhances the
value of every square yard of the real
estate in its vicinity that it is strange no
device has been forthcoming whereby
large trees can be taken from their native
low land or forest, lifted carefully, handled
bodily with plenty of their native soil
about their roots and deposited in any
desired place, there to be Joy to the pos
SCISSOR
The latter need then not wait until his
hair is gray to enjoy his possessions, nor
take his chances of death before the
shadow of his tree is sufficient to cover a
swung hammock. There are certainly no
mechanical difficulties in the way. A
pair of stout, large wheels, such as are
used in the hauling of timber, strong and
effective lifting mechanism and properly
constructed flexible sling in which roots
and soil can be enveloped; these would
imply no great difficulties, either in the
making or using. Who is there able to
build country home and improve the lot
upon which it stands, that would not pay
from $50 to 500 for a large, handsome
maple, guaranteed TO keep right on grow
ing for him as 1t did for nobody in par
ticular in the adjacent. forest. 1.-The woods
are full, )" and the bottom lands are full of
such trees The city is full of men that
would pay to own such. Yet these same
men must buy small trees and hopefully
await their growing. Large trees have
been successfully transplanted in Chicago
and elsewhere, yet the art is a compare
lively unknown one. This is a field of
industry that certainly promises reward
to man of enterprise and ingenuity

FISHING FOR TROUT.
The Necessary Outft-Skin Required to
Make a Lucky Fisherman.

The Necessary OutEt-SStu Required TO
Make a Lucky Fisherman.
Trout fishing is of two kinds-hait fish
ing with earth worms in the ponds and
stream and the casting of artificial flies on
the surface of the water. Bait fishing is
the first in order. 1t is less expensive
and requires less skill and delicacy Of
handling than fly fishing. During the
height of the season there are times when,
for some unaccountable reason, trout will
not rise to the most tempting fly, but will
take a worm deity dropped before its
nose.
A rod should be fourteen feet long,
about seven ounces in weight, and so
tough, strong and elastic as to bend al
most double without breaking. A good
reel, fitted to it, and line of silk or linen,
with smells and hooks, box Of bait,
sinker ON each smell heavy enough to pre-
vent the current of swift streams from
whirring the hook about too fast, and a
creel to carry the fish in completes the
equipment. In trout fishing, as in violin
playing, more depends upon skill than
anything else. The musician can delight
his hearers with a fairly good instrument
more than can the tyro with a Stradi-
varius, and the skillful disciple of Izaak
Walton can catch more trout with q COM
mon rod and Self made flies than the
novice can with the most expensive par
aphernalia.
When a sinker is used in bait fishing,
rs it must be, it should be fastened so
that the loop in the gut or smell of the
hook is above it. The hook should be
about foot below the sinker. Common
earth worms are the best, and should be
put on by running the hook through and
through them, care being taken to cover
completely the barb and the shaft
Casting is only learned by practice; it
cannot be taught theoretically any more
than can swimming, riding or shooting.
The line in fishing should be habitually
kept at the length of the rod4 Keep out
of sight of the fish. When once the trout
is on, never slacken the line. Pull stead
fly, but firmly, and jerk quickly if he
jumps out of the water, for there he is
apt to unlock himself and escape. Arti-
fetal flies are too numerous for descrip-
ton. They may be made at home with
few feathers and little colored sewing
silk, but fly hooks are now so reasonable
in price and so complete in arrangement
that it is better to buy them than to trust
" oliO WI uAlCSS, Ol6
be a connoisseur, in which case these
hints are useless.
Tackle should be of the Ightest and
strongest description. The scientific trout
fisher is the man who can cast a fly within
the space of a pocket handkerchief at
about eighteen yards distance 1t must
drop upon the water as lightly as a real
fly would light, and the rod must be held
well up and securely in the right hand

In n Venetian Church.

It was in this church that l became
fully conscious of the superior methods of
The Catholic church in Europe, at least in
their ability to reach down and take in all
classes Of people. The churches of Italy
are open at all hours and times. The
central portions of the churches are clear.
There are chairs about which can be used
upon special occasions or by delicate peo-
pie, but in this Venetian church the audi
ence stood as they would at political out
door meeting. There was an utter alb
sence Of formal requirement which was
most agreeable to witness. People came
in and went out as they pleased. Even
those who were listening to the sermon
felt under no compunctions to listen to
more than they cared TO hear. They could
listen to portion and then move on.
People came in out of the street Just as
they happened to be dressed in passing.
Exquisitely dressed ladies from the high
est class stood side by side with market
women who came in with their baskets.
Here was the first church service that I
had ever witnessed in my life where it was
evident that every one was made welcome,
and that in this splendid palace of religion
there was the most perfect democracy TO
be found in its audience.-T. c. Crawford

Ranch Cattle in the Mire,

During the early spring months, before
the round up begins, the chief work is in
hauling out mired cows and steers; and
II we did not keep sharp lookout the
losses at this season would be very serious.
As long as everything is frozen solid there
is, of course, no danger from miring; but
when the thaw comes, along toward the
beginning of March, a period of new dan
ger to the cattle sets in. When the ice
breaks up, the streams are left with an
edglng OF deep bog, while the orlicksand
is at its worst. AS the frost goes out of
the soil, the ground round every little
alkali spring changes into trembling
quagmire, and deep holes of Shiny, ten
aclous mud form in the bottom of all the
gullies.
The cattle. which have had to live on
Snow for three or four months, are very
eager for water, and are weak and in poor
condition. They rush heedlessly into any
pool and stand there, drinking gallons of
the icy water and sinking steadily into
the mud. When they try to get out they
are already too deep down, and are too
weak to make a prolonged struggle.
After one or two fits of desperate founder
ing, they resign themselves to their fate
with dumb apathy and are lost, unless
some one Of Us riding about discovers and
hauls them out. They may be thus lost in
wonderfully small mud holes: often they
will be found dead in a gulch but two or
three feet across, or in the quicksand of q
creek so narrow that il could almost be
jumped. An alkah hole, where the water
oozes out through the thick clay, is the
worst OF all; owing TO the ropy tenacity
with which the horrible substance sticks
and clings TO any unfortunate beast that
gets into it. In the spring these mud holes
cause very serious losses among the cattle.
and are at all times fruitful sources of
danger. Indeed, during an ordinary vear
more cattle die from getting mired than
from any other cause.-Theodore Rooss-
Welt in The Century.
