HOME, FARM AND GARDEN.

 Old orchards may be renovated by thorough cultivation, digging, de. stroying the borers, cleaning up, white washing the trees, pruning and doing such other work as may be necessary to get the soil and trees in first class condition.
 Unlike other machinery agricult- ural implements and machinery are used out of doors, and require more than ordinary care to keep them in order, yet, as u rule. they receive less care than is given to machinery in mills and facto- ries, and more rust out than wear out. -RaraL Home.

 If you can get along without put ting any vegetables in the cellar. you will reduce the chances of disease. But if you must put them in the cellar, see that they get frequent attention in the way of asserting.

 -Seaweed, according to Popular Gardeniag. is one of the best possible manures for asparagus, and those who live near the coast are advised to give their asparagus beds heavy dressing with it. Winter, it says. would per haps be the best time to apply the weed, afterwards covering it with an inch or two of soil.
 It is distressing to see a farmer working for less than the wages of q common laborer, and at the same time reducing the productive capacity of his land each year, so that the future holds no better outlook for him; and on thou- sands of farms the first step toward changing this bad state of affairs would be the seeding of large part of the farm to grass.
 If you want to raise seedlings &c., cure the seed and plant in rows in a clean place in the garden. A sandy loaming soil is much the best. Do not plant too thick. Arrange so that clean cultivation can be given, while. as a rule, it is not desirable to secure seedlings and allow them to grow to maturity, it is often a good plan to grow them to graft standard varieties upon.- Vestern Pioa0naan.

STILL FIXING 1T UP.
A Pleasant Little Bill of Expense
for Repairing the Capitol.

''Improve" is the watchword at the
capitol at present. This has been the
watchWord for some time. The base
ment of the building has been trans
formed into a carpenters shop, and
from every floor in the house, as we'll as
the roof, come the sounds of labor. One
great Improvement is the putting on of
a new roof. Before this work was be-
gun the representatives hall had been
freScoed, but the heavy rains penetra-
ted to the interior, and will necessitate
the performance of a part of the work
second time. Four men are buslly en-
gagged in the frescoing of the senate
chamber, employing variety of light
tintS, which harmonic well with the
woodwork.
A light-well over the new postoffice
has been arranged, and a similar one
will be opened for the railroad commits
SionerS' office. Three ventilation shafts
have been provided with fan-wheels,
which are to be run by electric motors
already put in. Two of these motors
are of three-horse power, while the
other is four-hOrse power, inSuring a
constant supply of fresh air in the build
ing.
A room is being fitted up in the base
ment of the building where the military
supplies of the Minnesota national
guards will be stored, instead of at the
armory, as at present. AS soon as the
state encampment at Lakeview breaks
up, the tents, guns and other accOutre-
mentS of the militia will be taken to the
capitol building.
The most noticeable improvement is
the putting in of the electric light
plant. In the engine house a dynamo
is being arranged to run by a seventy
five horse power engine, supplying
electric force to the motors, previously
mentioned, and to $50 incandescent
electric lights distributed through the
building. The cost of the electric
light plant will be S. less than the
$1,000 appropriated by the last legisla-
ture. The ventilation will cost about
$4,000, and the other improvements will
foot up about $4,000. Exclusive of the
electric plant, the appropriation for i'm
prOyementS was $4,000.

there will assemble at the state capitol,

rooms, detail from Acker, Garfield,
Ord and Bircher Posts, G. A. f.. to go
to the various cemeteries in and around
st. Paul to locate and designate with
flags the graves of soldiers lying buried
there, so that they can be more readily
recognized on Decoration day by the
decorating details. The list, so far as is
known, includes rs in Oakland Gene
terry, 106 III Calvary, in the old and 2
in the new Lutheran cemetery. There
are few others who have died since
tie list was prepared, and it would be
well for those having soldier friends ly-
ing in these cemeteries, whose names
are not included in the above list, to be
present and point out to the Marking
Detail'' where their friends lie, so that
they may be marked and properly deco
rated on Memorial day.
Capt. Charles j. SteeS has recently re-
received letter from Congressman
Rice, in which the writer says there will
probably be no objection to the bill ap-
propriating money for headstones for
unmarked soldiers graves. There are
slXty-two which Capt. Stees had ex-
pected to get in time to have them set
up before Memorial day. When he
made requisition for them he was in
formed that the appropriation had ex-
pired. Acker post passed resolution,

appropriation. Congressman Rice says
in his letter that the appropriation will
have to be in the regular bill. which will
not be passed before July l, and hence

CORONATION OF THE ROSE.
An Entertainment by Young
Ladies at the First Baptist

Ladies at the First Baptist
Church.
Sweetness and light" were the
features of the May-day cantata given
last evening at the First Baptist church
by large company of young ladies.
The Coronation of the Rosen by
George f. Root, was the piece presented,
Twenty-three young ladies' personating
the same number of flowers. The
argument of the cantata is as follows:
A recluSe, discontinued with the world,
seeks i'll a secluded dell, retirement
from its cares and duties. The flowers
meet i'll the same place to choose their
queen, and tell of love and duty. The
recluse, learning that to fill well the
station allotted by Providence is to be
happy, resolves to return again to her
duty in the world.
Mrs. ID. A. CurtisS assumed the part
of the recluse in apleasing manner, and
the various flowers were we'll repre-

criticism might seem invidiouS; yet the
Flower Queen, Mrs. Hallowell, deserves
special mention for her charming solos,
as we'll as for the excellent manner in
which she assumed the character of the
queen. Miss Nellie Hope presented the
claims of the Sunf1ower in way which
won for her a recall, and Miss Ruby
Bridges was warmly encored for her
solo, The Dandelion." Little Birdie
Hope, who as Touch-me- not performed
a pretty solo, was recalled to receive a
handsome bouquet. The choruses, reel
tations and the coronation march gave
! the Flower Queen an excellent support.
About 250 people were in the audience,
and from the opening chorus to the

thing passed off very smoothly, and the

The houses have been quarantined and
The patients will be removed to the pest

yesterday and exhibited face COW
cred with eruptions. The physician
pronounced it case of smallpox. and
an order was secured from City Physi-
:ian Ancker to send the young lady to

Dr.. Spencer last night showed that she
lad nothing but the measles.
The disease. which has so far spread
10 five persons. showed first in the
house at No. 500 Stryker avenue, where
twelve year old girl was taken
sick and died. The girls brother
md child of a neighOor were taken
shortly after These two are now at
.he pest house convaleScent. The two
eases reported yesterday are in the i'm
mediate neighborhood of the house
where the disease originated. All the
cases are OF malignant type known as
ihe continent form.
The chances for further spread of
she contagion are greatly enhanced by
The filthy, and consequently unhealthy,
condition of the premises. The health
ordinances seem to have been utterly
aisregarded by the people in the vicin-
lily, and with night soil and garbage de-

epidemic in the vicinity.
Doctors advise people who have not
done so to get yaccinated at once.

A HITCH IN THE PROGRAMME.
The Memorial Day Exercises to Be
Changed From the Original
Gnha6uIo

Something seems to be out of shape
In the preparations or Memorial day.
A programme was decided upon several
days ago and placed i'll the hands of
Secretary T. S. White, but when re-
guested yesterday to give it out
for publication, he refused and said
that it had become necessary to make
complete change, ana that special
meeting had been called to meet this
evening at the Office of Z. st. Julien
Cox to rearrange the programme. AT
The meeting of Acker Post
last evening, the matter came up for
discussion and a mixed condition of
affairs was developed. The oris inal
programme provided for exercises and
speeches at the capitol in the afternoon.
When Col. Kerr's speech was laid be-
fore the committee it was found that
1t could be delivered only in
cemetery, and would not be applicable
at the. state house. Other speeches
were found in like condition, and a split
resulted. some faVoring a change in the
speeches, but the majority thought it
best to hold the exercises at the GENE
terry. A number of warm speeches were
made, and it was asserted that some
members of the committees were not
properly attending to their business.
others
FAVORED A CHANGE
N the meeting place of the committee
tonight, and all in all, they had rather
4 lively time. 1t came out that there
will probably be slim attendance at
;he meeting OF the committee tonight.
One thing is certain, the programme
irSt agreed upon has been killed, and
;he preparations are where they were
TWO weeks ago. 1t is probable, how
ever, that there will be no exercises in
;he city. Beyond this all are at sea.
Several members of the e. a. r. have
asked the GLOBE to say that the reason
why the militia companies We're
not asked TO participate in the Memorial
lay exercises was because the old SOL
diers felt that the day should be OBJ
served as solemn and sacred occasion.
They have no desire for any elab-
arate display or anything that
would make light holiday affair of its
observation. The memories they hold
are sacred, and they would 60 solemly
and strew flowers where their dead
comrades lie. Any differences of past
years between militia and the Grand
Army have been forgotten, and did not
enter into the arrangements this year.
