WHY LEAVES TURN.
A True and Scientific Explanation Given
by an Eminent Botanlst.

a True ana Scientiiic explanation Giycn
by an Eminent Botanist.
"Probably not one person in q thou
sand knows why leaves change their
color in the fall" remarked an emf
nent botanist the other day. "The
common and old-fashioned idea is,
that all this red and golden glory we
see is caused by frosts. A true and
scientific explanation of the causes Of
the coloring of leaves would necessi-
tate a long and intricate discussion.
Stated briefly and in proper language,
those causes are these: The green
matter in the tissue of leaf is COM
posed OF two colors, red and blue.
When the sap ceases to flow in the
fall, and the natural growth of the tree
ceases, oxidation of the tissue takes
place. Under certain conditions, the
green of the leaf changes to red; under
different conditions, it takes on yell
low or brown tint. This difference in
color is due to the difference in COM
bination of the original constituents of
the green tissue, and to the varying
conditions of climate, exposure and
soil. A dry, cold climate produces
more brilliant foliage than one that is
damp and warm. This is the reason
that our American autumns are so
much more gorgeous than those of En-
gland. There are several things about
leaves that even science can not ex-
plain. For instance, why one OF two
trees growing side by side. of the same
age and having the same exposure,
should take on a brilliant red in the
fall and the other should turn yellow;
or, why one branch of tree should
be highly-colored and the rest of the
tree have only yellow tint, are ques-
tions that are as impossible to answer
as why one member of IL family should
beperfectly healthy and another sickly.
Naples and oaks have the brightest
colors." Field and Forest.

PLOWS AND FLOWING.
Comments That Should Receive Thought
full Consideration.

Comments That should Receive ThOught-
ful Consideration.
Flowing is something more than
stirring or heaving the soil. If proper
ly done it turns completely under the
surface with the weeds, stubble, grass,
stalks and other trash that may be upon
it, and brings to the surface the under
soil to be acted upon by the different
elements that will aid materially to
make available portion, at least, of
the plant food it may contain.
There is certainly q great variety of
plows adapted to a large variety of soil
and kinds of work. But there is con-
siderable in the handling of the plow
as well as in the way it is constructed.
And what would under ordinary cir
cumstances be considered a second or
third rate plow, can, in the hands of
thorough plowman, with a good team,
be made to do really better work, than
much better plow in the hands of
man who is incapable of properly man
aging it. Some plows if properly ad-
justed will turn the soil completely
over, others seem to set it on edge,
while others put the soil in almost any
position between these two. OF course
some plows do better work in one
kind of soil, and some in other kinds.
1t is quite an item in doing good
work to secure plow that is adapted
to the kind of soil and work that is
wanted to be done, adjust properly and
handle right. A plow if made right
ought to do the best work when it is
running level; if it won't, or is made
to run on the point or heel, it will not
do the work that it is adapted for as
well as if it could be run level. 1t is
therefore not always the fault of the
plow thatNgood work is not done, al
though poor plowman is very willing
to lay the fault to the plow let the
quality be what it may.
One OF the objections to number of
sulky plows is that instead of carrying
the plow, as properly constructed
sulky should do, the>plow is made to
carry the sulky, and iristead of Il light
running plow the draft is increased to
the amount of the weight of The sulky
and driver. A good judge oil plow
can tell by its construction whether or
not it will do good work in the soil he
wants to plow. Yet it is not always
good evidence that because plow
does not do good work in one kind OF
soil that it will not be best in another.
1t is certainly not good economy to
purchase poor plow to save small
amount in the purchase price.
Whether it is a walking, breaking
plow, riding sulky or gang, make
quality of the plow and of the work i,
will do, us we'll as the draft. the first
considerations, and then secure it at
as low price as possible, but do not
overlook these points simply to save in
the cost.
Better acknowledge your ignorance
and get good man TO select plow for
you than to risk your own judgment
and get plow that will not answer
your purpose. Western Plowman.

TREATMENT OF INSOMNIA.
Benefits Resulting from "a Warm Salt Bath
Taken Before Retiring.

One of the most effective inducers to
sleep is warm salt bath taken before
retiring. This will almost always pnt
a restless child to slumber if it is we'll,
and if it is we'll fed after its bath.
Sleeplessness in an adult is more diff
cult to contend with. A warm salt
bath may not always act as quickly,
but it is worth trying. Il there is any
tendency to cold feet, put warm bot.
tie at the feet after bathing, and in
many cases restful sleep will follow.
1t is far better to resort to every sub
terfuge to induce sleep before resorting
to any sleeping draught. Sometimes a
few crackers or something else eaten
just before retiring will induce sleep
when nothing else will. For this pur-
pose many people keep cracker-jar
in their rooms. The thin wafer crack
ers are excellent for this purpose. For
the dry, burning sensation in the palms
of the hands and soles Of the feet which
induces sleeplessness. sponge them in
ammonia and water or vinegar and
water. The continued dwelling on a
certain thought may be of value. A
frequent remedy of this kind is to inn
agine an endless flock of sheep stepping
one by one over stile. The continual
monotony of the imaginary movement
will soon put a wide-awake person
asleep. A famous physician put his
sleepless patients to drowsy slumber
by an arrangement by which they lis
tened to the constant dropping of water,
drop by drop, on metal. If person

COMFORT IN MILKING.
A Suggestion for Dairymen Who Have
No Dark Stable.

No Dark Stable.
The past three years have done all
my milking during fly time in a small,
dark stable, and consequently have had
no need for tail fasteners or such like
kicked over my head. The stable has
two doors which are fastened wide open
until milking time, when one is closed,
and as the COW enters the other | brush
the flies off her with branch, or with
my hat, then sit down and milk in
peace and comfort. / have great
deal more trouble to get COW ont of
this stable, when she once gets used TO
it, than to get her IN. 1t is such re-
lief to them to be rid of their tormen-
tors that they would much rather stay
in than go out.
Before | built this stable 1 used
large sheet made of thin gunny, which
threw over the COW when | began to
milk, 1t was made large enough en-
tirely to cover her and touch the ground.
could slip under this and milk almost
as comfortably as in darkened stable.
The flies would come under through
the openings at the ends but they could
easily and quickly be brushed or fright
ened out again with small branch, or
with my hat.
would earnestly recommend the use
of sheet like this to all mixers who
have no dark stable. BY using it one
can milk in comparative peace and
quiet at any time of the day, even if
the flies swarm like bees, instead of
being obliged to rush out before sun
rise in the morning and wait until after
dark in the evening to do the milking.
A sheet OF this kind will cost only
few cents, and if properly cared for
will last several years, and repay it's
cost every time it is used. Why such
a simple, comfort-creating contrivance
has not long been in general use among
mixers is a mystery to me.--N. Y.

There must be good deal of study
on the farm these days to make sue
cess of the business.
The summer is the time to put the
barn in condition for winter. Painting
should be done now, and the roof
should be made tight and close.
If you are oo farm and are sure
you can never like nor succeed in your

better off you will be; but il the
trouble comes from not putting your

-Spiced Peaches: When there are
more peaches on hand than can be
used to advantage while still fresh,
peal and slice them, or simply brush
them, removing the stones. Put them
over the fire in the preserving kettle
with enough water to cover them, al
lowing tablespoonful of vinegar to
each pint; spice them highly with any
mixed ground spice preferred, and
stew them gently to a pulp. When
cold, put in air tight jars like other

There is undoubtedly a need in
