Concerning the Russian Church.
SAN FRANCISCO, California, May %.
Startling revelations in connection
with the burning of the Russian
church here the other day are coming
in. Late Thursday night, B. w.
Gopsichiritch, a member of the
church, who has been fearless enough
to assert that he believed that the
fire was the work Of a faction of
fiends who were anxious to destroy
the records of their pilferings of the
past and the register of illegitimate
children born to certain Russian and
Greek families in San Francisco, was
set upon by five men, one of whom
struck him with a heavy iron bar,
cutting deep cash in his chin and
nearly breaking his jaw. He had
sufficient presence of mind left to fire
shot from his revolver at them and
the would-be-assassins retired. The
scandal dated back ten years. Bish-
op Kiodesvowsky who attempted to
root out some OF the immor-
talities was murdered. His MUIR
derer or murderers were never
prosecuted. Since that time the
church has beeI split up into two or
more factions, and it is charged thou
sands of dollars received from Alaska,
and the proceeds from the property in
the hands of the church officials had
been squandered.

Evidence on CrOni
Murder.
Further

CHICAGO, May 25.-Wm. Merles,
milkman, who lives in the neigh
borhood of the Carlson cottage, in
which it is supposed DR.. Cronin was
murdered, tells story which adds to
the evidence leading to that conclu-
sion. On the night of the murder,
between $50 and 10 o'clock, about the
hour which it is supposed the doctor
arrived there in a buggy, with the
man who came for him, Merles left
his house to visit a grocery at the
corner of Ashland avenue and Otto
street, which is only a short block
south of the Carlson cottage.
AS he neared the Carlson cottage, q
buggy containing two men rolled up
to the edge of the ditch; one of the
men, whom Merles described as
tall, apparently athletic man, sprang
from the buggy and ran up the front
steps of the cottage, the door of which
was thrown open before he even
knocked for admission. Scarcely had
the door closed again when the sound
of loud and angry voices within the
cottage startled the milk dealer. He
looked searchingly at the man in the
buggy, but the strangers face was
shrouded by the brim of a soft hat,
and Merles was unable to tell
whether he was stout or slender, fair
or dark. The fellow whipped his
horse into galop, drove to Addison
avenue, and turned in the direction
of the lake. Merles says there was a
dim light in the front room, and that
the man who went up the steps, pre-
sumably DR.. Cronin, wore long,
brown overcoat. Mrs. Conkl!n, the
woman at whose house DR.. Cronin
lived, says the doctor wore long,
brown overcoat on the night of the
murder.

THIS cond1uon arises they VIII generally
show it by lying on the ground and
stretching themselves and straining.
Sometimes they will pluck at their wool
and show signs of distress and uneasi
ness. When sheep are in this condition
they are not in good health to have
young. They will not provide as much
milk, and their udders are liable to be
caked and sore, or to show evidences of
Inflammation. There is danger that they
will not own their lambs, and the milk
will not flow freely. When the udder is
sore or much infamed, even if the eve
owns her lamb, she will refuse to let it
suck. Under such circumstances the
lamb very soon becomes weak and dies.
Prevention is better than cure for all
these ailments, and this Hes in providing
the eve with suitable food. This must
be such as not to produce a feverish con-
dition. 1t should be somewhat laxative
and well supplied with nitrogenous ele-
ments. Such foods are wheat bran, oats,
pea meal, beans and linseed meal. Corn
is unsuitable for breeding ewes, as it pro-
duces fat and heat.
There is no animal which responds
with better results to succulent foods than
sheep and ewes with lamb Potatoes do
not seem to be adapted to this purpose;
turnips are a natural food for ewes, as
well as for other sheep. Carrots are ex-
cellent, and so are beets and mangels. A
few roots or Il small ration of these, say
four quarts day, with bran and linseed
meal, will put ewes in a most healthy
and vigorous condition, and at the same
time this combination of foods will tend
to promote the growth and support of
the fetus, and when the little lamb is
born it will have the bone and strength
to help itself, and it will give far less
trouble to get it on its legs and obtain its
sUstenance from the mother.
There is such a thing as feeding the
lamb before it is born-to nourish and
strengthen it through the blood of the
dam. This is an important matter and
should never be lost sight of in the feed
ing of the mother. This idea is particu-
larly applicable to the eve, as its off

or less helpless. If the ewes have not
been fed on such foods during the Win
ter, the sooner this is done before lamb
ing time the better. The feeding should
be in limited quantities at first, not more
than gill day for a few days, then
gradually increase to a quart or two,
according to the size of the eve. Three
parts of wheat bran to one part of lin
seed meal is a good proportion, fed twice
a day with the roots. Ewes may be fed
oats with roots and do well, but the bran
is almost invaluable, as it will furnish
the muscle and bone food required.
When ewes are to lamb soon, they should
not be fed on timothy nay, as it is not a
proper sheep food. There is nothing so
good in all the list of forage plants as
bright clover hay. Sheep will do well
on this food alone, up to the time of
lambing, as it is the best balanced food
in the whole list. The ewes should have
access to water whenever they want it, as
they naturally drink but little at time
and drink often.

The first document published under
the authority of the secretary of agricul-
ture is Experiment Station Bulletin No.
/ of the newly established Office Of ex-
pertinent stations of the United States
department of agriculture. This pam
phlet contains a large amount of infor-
nation regarding the history and pros
poets of the agricultural experiment sta
tons, which are now conducting scien-
tifc and practical experiments in the
different states. Such institutions for
scientific investigation in behalf of agri-
culture have been long in operation in
Europe. The first one in this country
was begun in Connecticut in the chemi-
cal laboratory of Wesleyan university
fourteen years ago. Other states fol-
lowed the example, and in 1897 congress
appropriated $4,000 per annum to each
state and territory for the purpose.
All the states now have agricultural ex-
pertinent stations. Some have two; Louis
lana has three. The total number now
in operation is forty-six, or, counting
branch stations, nearly sixty. They en-
ploy more than go scientists and agri
culturists, and receive this year $685., 900
from the national government, and
about $l25, 900 from the state and other
sources. A feature is the cooperation
between the stations and the depart
ment of agriculture at Washington,
which is charged by congress with the
duty of supervising and aiding the sta
lions in their work. The Office of ex-
pertinent stations, acting with the Asso-
citation of American Agricultural Col
leges and Experiment Stations, is able to
accomplish much in this line. The bull
Ietin contains an introduction by the
secretary.
Copies of this bulletin can be obtained
by application to the office of expert
ment stations, department of agricul-
ture, Washington, D. c.

FIG. TREE ROOTS AMONG COARSE CLODs.
The delicate thread like roots of plants
can obtain little if any benefit when
planted in stone heap, even if the stones
contained highly stimulating fertilizers.
The rule will apply to delicate garden
ANNALS and to large trees alike. The
man who transplants fruit tree and
tumbIes in carelessly the coarse unbroken
earth can hardly expect it to grow, even
if it survives the treatment In the ac-
companying cuts, for which we are in
debted to Country Gentleman, are shown
tree roots under different conditions.
Fig. illustrates a tree endeavoring to
grow with its roots among the coarse
clods. In Fig. the soil has been finely
pulverized and placed in contact with all
the ibers. The coarse soil is full of air
crevices, causing the roots to dry up in
summer, and very little of the earth can
be in actual contact with them. The
pulverized soil closely incases every root
and supplies all the moisture and food
required.

FIG. 2-THE ROOTS IN PULvERIzED SOIL.
A soil reduced to a fine condition and
with proper depth holds like a sponge
the surplus water of rains and gives it to
growing plants as they require it. This,
however, is but one of the advantages of
fine culture. A hard, compact soil is
easily flooded with heavy shower, and
becomes too dry in its absence. Actual
experiments furnish the most satisfactory
and convincing proofs of these different
influences. This work of pulverizing the
soil has been rendered a comparatively
easy matter of late years by the intro
duction of such implements as the Acme
and Disc harrows, the Getaway, the
smoothing harrows and similar APP
dian ICES. "Firming' thesoil by pressure
of the tG2t or with suitable implements,
when sowing seeds, now prevails among
successful gardeners, while intelligent
farmers practice passing a heavy roller
over LIE ground after sowing a crop of
grain. This pressure serves to close up
tbsair crevices and bring the soil into
,Rctual contact with the seed,

The resolution recently passed at a
meeting of the Market Gardeners asso-

judicious use of honestly made fertilizers
is profitable to the practical farmer and
market gardener" is in accordance with
the experience of the progressive market
gardeners and farmers of New York and
New Jersey.

In a recent report from the statistician
of the department of agriculture is given
the result of the investigation, through
agents and correspondents, of the aver
age weight of wheat, by states. The
average weight of six wheat crops, those
of 1S93-1SSS, is set down at ST. pounds
per bushel. The present average is still
lower-56.5. The estimates for the spring
wheat region are all very low, from 53.7
pounds in Dakota to IS in Nebraska.
