why the Year 1900 is In This century.

The confusion in the question whether
the year 1900 is part of the nineteenth
century or the twentieth century arises
probably from the comparison of the age
of man with the years of century. We
do not call child year old till he has
lived year, and we call him 10, for in
stance, all through his 1lth year. But
the year / began with the day No. l, and
we call it the year up to and including
the 365th day. So the years from to 100
comprised the first century, and the second
century began with the year 10l and ended
with 200, and the nineteenth century be-
gan with 1901 and ends with the last day
of the year 1900.-Springfeld (1Mass.)

THE WIFE.

In youth he wrought, with eyes ablur,
Lorn-faced and long of h4ir-
In youth-in youth, he painted her
A sister of the air
Could clasp her not, but felt the stir
Of pinions everywhere.
II.
She lured his gaze in drawer days,
And tranced him siren-wise
And he did paint her through haze
Of sullen paradise.
With scars of kisses OH her face
And embers in her eyes.
III.
And now-nor dream, nor wild conceit-
Though faltering as before
Through tears he paints her, as is meet,
Tracing the dear face DER
With lilied patience meek and sweet
AS mother Mary wore.

A New Fly Pest

Colonel T. R. Cornelius informs us that
he is losing three or four hundred pounds
of milk daily ON his herd of sixty dairy
cows, from new fly which appeared
in his pastures last year for the first
time, and is very bad this year.
1t is about the size of common house-fy,
with broader, stronger wing, slightly
spotted, bites with power that raises
welts on the beasts, and keeps after them
all day.-Pdcifc Fdraer.

Deep Soil for strawberries.

twenty to thirty inches into the ground, il
it Is made very rich and well worked to
that depth. Mulehing with rotted forest

this manner the plants will be sure to pro-

TREE PLANTING.
PLANS FOR ECONOMIC TREE CULT.
.URE IN CALIFORNIA.
Bulletin from the State Board of
Forestry-The Care of Seed
ling Trees.

The Board of Forestry Commissioners for
this State has issued the following, as Bull
letin No. l, of publications to be issued by
it, the Board consisting of Abbot Kinney,
John D. Spreckels and Walter S. Moore:
The encouragement of tree planting by
tree seed distribution was the first tempo
rary expedient adopted for that purpose
by the California State Board of Forestry.
We are to-day organized for what we hope
will prove practical plan for economic
tree planting in California.
We have now two experimental Forest
Stations established-one at Santa Monica
and the other the Bidwell Station at Chico.
In these two stations We have now more
than one hundred and fifty thousand seed
ling forest trees, which will be ready for
planting next season.
We have three other stations promised
us, and expect to have experimental
grounds planted as park, for both beauty
aud instruction. in every climatic belt in
California.
When any one desires to plant forest
trees extensively, we will send the Head
Forester to inspect the land and advise as
to the kind to plant the preparation of
the soil and the care of the trees after
planting
To prevent favoritism, and with view
to make the Forest Board self-sustaining,
we vii, charge for the time and expenses
of the Forest officers when thus engaged.
We will also be able to furnish the rarer
variety of trees not grown in quantities by
nurseries. Our object will be to encour-
age and make practical forest tree plant
ing (now in a very unsatisfactory condi
tion), and to help nurserymen, rather than
to compete with them, by advice founded
on the scientific observations our expert
mental stations will enable us to make.
We also intend to try the experiment of
planting out, for 4 fair remuneration, few
tree culture land claims, to see whether
the Federal Land Act may not be made
of some benefit to forestry, at least in CAL
ifornia. As part of this bulletin, we add
suggestions in reference to planting forest
seeds and forest trees by T. H. Douglas,
Head Forester.
The Board, in its effort to encourage tree
planting by accurate information and the
aid Of a practical tree planter, will not
lose sight Of the fact that the one great
object of forestry in California is to pre-
serve the brush and tree-coyered mountain
watersheds of the State, and 10 manage the
existing forests scientifically, so that these
may supply fuel and lumber, and vet re-
tain their reproductive power and general
forest integrity.

From California, late in August and
during September, will come the celebrated
Tokays-those large, handsome, purple
grapes which have only been obtainable
in the past at our fancy fruit stores at
high prices. This season the crop is a
large one and ample supplies will be for
warded here, SO that all may enjoy them at
reasonable prices-considerably below so
cents per pound, which has been paid in
the past for choice fruit. After September
the white grapes from Almeria, which
are enormously called Malaga grapes, will
arrive, and the crop there being large and
of fine quality, it is confidently expected
that receipts viii be very heavy up to jan
uary. Last season over 100000 barrels
arrived in this city.
There will be fair crops Of apples, pears,
plams and ounces from the Hudson val
ley and New Jersey orchards. These
fruits are sold by commission merchants,
but oranges, lemons and grapes from the
