HORRORS.

In the National convention of the
Woman's Christian Temperance I'm
ion in Chicago, on the 18th of this
month, strong resolutions were adopt
ed, such as indicate not only their
gratitude, with its occasions for the
past, bat such as must mark progress
for the future. Success in the past is
claimed as the result under God of
systematic work in forty departments
included under the general head of Or
ganization, preventure, educational,
social, evangelical and legal, having
at the heads of all departments deyot-
ed specialists. The foundation of all
their work is found in the acceptance
of the Gospel of our Lord Jesus
Christ, by men and women, and great
er efforts In evangelical work is urged
upon all. They discountenance all
union of church and state, claim that
God in Christ is the king of all ma
tions, should be SO acknowledged in
our government, and on His Word
ovr laws should be based. They place
themselves squarely with all efforts of
of state and individuals and the pub
lie press in favor of the Sunday rest
law, and urge upon Congress the en-
actment of such law for the territor-
les and the District of Columbia, and
eulogize the President for forbidding
military reviews and parades on Sun
day, and Postmaster Gen. Wanama-
ker for the reduction of Sunday pos.
tai work. They urge one full Sabbath

ance lesson in the Sunday Schools.-a
most excellent suggestion. They call
for the establishment of girls indus
trial colleges in every state, to be
supported by state appropriations.
That Congress should prohibit the
sale and manufacture and giving
away of alcoholic beverages in her
territories, and amend the interstate
commerce law, so as to prohibit the
carriage of liquor into prohibition
states. That Christian America
should soon remove the stigma on
herself of carrying rum into heather
Africa. That the dominant issue in
the politics of the United States
should be the principle of prohibition

lie beverages pure and simple, and
and to this end the w. G.
T. q. declares for the party that de-
clares for prohibition in state and ma
ton. They declare for an education
al test for citizenship,-for the full
franchise for women. They speak
strongly of women being admitted to
seats in ecclesiastical conventions.
They heartily rejoice at the victory of
their principles at the ballot box in
the two Dakotas and that the domi-
nant party in South Dakota has de-
clared for national prohibition. They
denounce Vice President Morton for
having bar in his Washington apart
ment house. These women are GER
tainly not afraid to storm the evil of
wherever found, they
are growing force that must be felt
in the government of this great and
growing country. They certainly
have come into existence as united
body for such time as this.

MATURING FRUIT TREES.


If the best quality of fruit is to be Sc
cured, and it is only the best quality that
pays the best profit, it is very necessary
to keep the soil at least reasonably rich.
While in many cases it may be sufficient
" rich when the trees are first planted,
vet the growing of several crops while
the trees were making their growing,
with the growth of grass that usually
follows and the crops of fruit that have
been grown after the trees commenced
bearing, must, to considerable extent,
have decreased the available fertility.
1t should be understood that the grow
ing of trees and maturing of good crop
of fruit draws nearly or quite as heavily
upon the available plant food in the soil
as that of any other crop, and is, there
fore, Just as necessary to apply manure
to the orchard, if the fertility of the soil
is to be maintained, as to the soil in
which the field crops are grown.
In nearly all cases the best way of APP
plying manure is to have the ground
we'll powed and then scatter the manure
broadcast as evenly as possible; then
working into the soil with the harrow or
cultivator. But, with the orchard, as
with the meadows, it is not always de-
srable or best to pillow up; and then
good plan is to use only well-rotted man.
ure, and make it fine and scatter evenly
over the surface. Ashes are a good fer
tilizer to use in the orchard, but the man
ure and ashes should not be applied to-
pether, or there will be more or less loss
of ammonia.
When the quantity of MANURE is insult
ficient to SOW broadcast over the whole
surface, considerable benefit may be de-
rived by scattering under the trees as far
out as the leaves and branches extend.
1t is not good plan to pile it up around
the trunk of the trees.
Whatever material is used will be best
scattered broadcast over the soil, under
the trees first, and over the whole sur
face when the quantity of manure is suf-
ficient. The roots extend out a consider
able distance, and the trees will be able
to derive a larger amount of benefit if
the manure is scattered broadcast. With
young trees the manure should not be al
lowed to come in contact with the roots.
In manuring trees when setting them
out. the manure should be worked into
the soil thoroughly before filling in
around the roots. One of the poorest
plans of applying manure to young trees
is to throw the manure in the bottom of
the place prepared for the tree and then
set in the tree and fill in soil. So far as
possible the manure should always be in
corporated with the SOIL n. j. S., in

Height of Sea Waves.

Carefully repeated experiments made by
an experienced English navigator at Santan-
der, on the north coast Of Spain, showed the
crest of the sea waves in a prolonged and
heavy gale of wind to be AZ feet high, and al
lowing the Nme for the depth between the
waves would make height of 81 feet from
crest to base The length from crest to crest
was found to be $50 feet. Other estimates Of
the waves in the South Atlantic during great
storms give height of 80 feet from the crests
and 400 feet for length. In the North sea
the height of crest seldom exceeds 10 feet and
the length $50 feet.-New York Star.

Sheep 0nterest.
MERINOS COMING UP.

w. ID. CrOut of Fulton county, u, says
in communication to the StockMan:
81 suppose will stand very good
chance of humiliation if say that the
recent craze for the ropshire-Merno
cross will possibly in the near future
lose somebody some money and without
doubt ruin good many sheep for wool.
NV convictions are nevertheless trendng
that way, and should it ever come any
where near the old Cotswold-Merino
cross it will be sorry day for the flock
master who gave his allegiance to the
new departure. Were l disposed at all
to follow after this 'chimera' it would
be by crossing a flock of large bone Me-
rino ewes with Shropshire rams and dis
posing of the produce as fast as they be-
came of the proper age for the lamb mar
ket. This would insure a good clip
from the flock and a secure retreat from
possible disaster in the future. But to
keep anv of the produce and graft them
into the flock would be a risk | should
hardly dare venture, with my idea of the
result. 1t is true that this quality of
wool is at present much in favor; but
fashion changes in woods well as in
everything else, and we have seen before
within our easy memory just as radical a
change.
'Indeed let us do justice to one long
since dead, and acknowledge that his ad-
vice saved US from just such a catastrophe
when we were wavering between two
opinions-whether we should go with the
multitude or whether we should keep on
with the Merinos. The advice was this
Just as long as fine article of clothing
is in demand just so long will fine Merino
wool be needed After years have
proven this advice to be sound, and we
pass ii on to our readers with our indi-
vidual recommendation attached. If you
have a good flock of Merinos keep them
but of course if you have not, get them,
because you are going to do some bust
ness in the next few years"
