Measuring the Height of Trees.

Will you please give rule for measur-
ing the height of trees? l am getting
piles 80 feet long to be driven into the mud.
l wish to cut only what will be 80 feet 6
inches at tip. know there is a rule to
measure while standing, but cannot lay my
hand upon it. This may not be strictly
agriculture, but the trees are product of
my farm, and have all grown since my
boyhood L. r. g., Bethlehem, Conn.,
There are several ways of measuring the
height. If the ground is level and the
tree casts shadow when the sun shines
that shadow from the base of the tree to
the tip may be measured at the same
time the shadow of vertical ten foot pole
may be measured, and from this shadow
the height may be determined by the old
"rule of three process, by any one who
understands arithmetic. Or, you may
place q ten foot pole perpendicularly
against the tree, and then taking foot
rule Tor two FOOT in your hand, walk back
ward from the tree far enough so that
when this rule is held out upright in your
hand at arms length, it will Just cover the
pole standing against the tree then look
ing at the pole and tree, successfully move
the rule upwards equal to it's length each
time, and you will have the height nearly.
If, for instance, the rule measures success
sively five times, one above the other, the
tree will be fifty feet high. A little prac-
tice will enable you to measurs trees with
considerable accuracy There are other
modes more fundamentally correct, re-
quiring perfect instruments, but the above
will doubtless answer the intended purpose
with sufficient accuracy. ]-Cultioator and
Country Gentleman.

IMPAIRED Sight.

Causes of impaired sight: /. Sudden
changes from very light rooms to dark
ones, or the reverse, causing more or less
pain, which is always an indication that
something is wrong. 2. The Pickering of
gas lights and the instability of all lights,
since the sight is more or less labored. 3.
Reading in the cars, or when the body is
not at rest as Yau as in a recumbent pos
ture. 4. The use of tobacco, especially
chewing, except so far as the smoke par
ticles of tobacco get into the eyes, tobacco
poisons the whole system, seriously affect
ing the optic nerve. 5. The intense light
of the kerosene lamp, the same being true,
in some degree, of ali artificial lights. 6.
The use of the eyes at the twilight hour,
in moonlight, or any imperfect light,
when an effort is made to see. Z. The ex-
posture of the eye to the bright light of a
fire, etc., with the added heat. s. Re-
fected light, as from the snow in very
bright day. 8. Long continued darkness,
the result of which is the same to the
sight as fasting till one becomes very
weak is to the powers of the body.
10. Gluttonv, debauchery, intemperance
in any respect, especially the use of
ardent spirits, gross living and venery,
the latter particularly. II. All undue eff
fort, all use that produces fatigue or harm,
it being always safe to stop at this alarm.

Juvenile Alliance,

The Southern Alliance has started Jul
venile Alliance. 1t is a good idea. The
Constitution of the National Juvenile Al
lance, says: Being profoundly impressed
with what has become an axiom, "Tbat
the partial failure of all Agricultural Or
carnations is due to the absence of
high degree of uniform education and no.
mogeneous thought" Now therefore, we
issue this, our declaration of intentions:
l To labor for the education of the
Agricultural Youth in the science of eco
nomical government, to improve them
mentally, morally, and socially.
@ To thoroughly prepare them, male
and female, to perform the highest duties
of American citizenship.
1 By securing for each subordinate
lodge a carefully selected circulating Ii
brary.
2 The order of business to consist OF
highly entertaining and instructive literary
exercises in subordinate, county and dis
trict Alliances.
3 To create an appetite for, and encour-
age the wide circulation of newspapers.
To establish publishing company in
each State with large paid up capital
stock, and National Publishing Com
pany sufficiently endowed to meet all de-
mands.
5. To establish and maintain an agri-
cultural and mechanical academy in each
senatorial district, upon long leased or
purchased property, by State or National
aid, or by co, operate effort at which boys
may earn their education, and girls may
cquire the highest and most thorough
domestic culture. And we confidently
ask the moral support OF all classes, who
are friends to good government.
6. To establish system of special
schools of eight weeks in July and August
where only one or two branches are taught
at a time, when the finest talent can be
secured from our towns, colleges, and
cities.
This body shall be known as the Nation
al Juvenile Farmers Alliance of America,
and shall have power to make it's own
constitution, bylaws rules of order and
business. 1t shall be composed of the fol
lowing persons A president, vice presi
dent, secretary and treasurer, and one
Vice. president for each State. A lecturer,
chaplain, door-keeper, sergeant alarms
and one delegate for each congressional
district under it's jurisdiction.-W Western

New Method of Budding,

Some horticulturist claims to have dis
covered new method of setting buds,
which he holds to be much better than the
old way. 1t consists in making the cross
cut on the stock at the bottom instead of
the top of the vertical cut, and showing
the bud in upward under the bark instead
of downward, as on the old plan. This,
he says, causes the bark to better shelter
the bud from rain than in the old way,
and hence largely increases it's chances for
success. The thing appears entirely rea-
sonable: the cut for the bud would need
to be little different from the usual cut,
we suppose, the knife starting in suffic
iently above to leave more wood and bark
above than below. OF course the bud
must be set the same end up as in the
other case.-MobsZe Reqister.

Profits in Sheep Husbandry.

ColemeGn's Rural World says, in sheep
husbsndry the realization of profits does
not always depend on immediate results
The grading up of common flock to the
most profitable basis requires time and
means, but the end should be more CARE
fully kept in view than immediate profit.
The conspicuous pliability of sheep has
enabled breeders, possessed of skill and
enterprise, to produce varieties suited not
alone to the pastoral herdsman, bat to the
average farmer as well. For the latter,
whatever his condition and locality, some
varieties may be found from which he
may confidently anticipate the maximum
profit for such judieious grading, reasona-
BILE care and seasonable sustenance as he
may accord them.

The Cotton Worm-How to Destroy 1t.

Paris green. London purple and white
| arsenic, all compounds of arsenic, are used
for the destruction of this pest. Since all
the above are poisonous to man and beast,
they must be handled with great care and
caution.
The almost unanimous opinion of farm
ers and planters is that of the above Paris
green is by far the best poison. 1t is used
in three ways; first, in liquid suspension !;
mix one pound of Paris green with forty
gallons of water and put this on one acre,
by and with large watering pot or from
the barrels placed in wagon, by the use
of spray pumps. In either case the mix
ture must be kept well stirred, since Paris
green il not soluble in water, but is held
soured in bucket of water and then added
to the mixture gives it greater adhesive
power.
Second, dry, mixed with some deIuent,
as cheap -four, yellow ochre, fine clay,
times added to increase adhesiveness. One
pound of Paris green is mixed with twenty
five pounds of the deluent.
This mixture, used during showery
weather, is sifted ovsr the plants by hand,
through coarse sieves.
Third. The finely ground Paris green
is busted from an oblong sack, made of
coarse muslin, attached to the end of
long pole, carried by q man on horseback.
In this way it is easily and cheaply dis
tributed !; the only objection is that as or
dinarily performed more Paris green is
used than is necessary. Care should be
taken to keep man and beast on the side
from which the wind is blowing, so as to
avoid inhalation of arseeical dust.
Fisher Of the above Methods can be used
with certainty Of success, if proper care in
following directions be exerted. II b0mp-
son = Bird, Commissioner Of agriculture.

Her First Time in Church.

A minister's little daughter was attend
ing her first church service, at which her
father presided. She had never seen him
in the pulpit before, and on her entrance
there, her presence of mind forsook her,
and she pipeS up in voice expressive of
joyful recognition "Why. t-h-e-r-e's
my papa, up in that box |" Avenging
propriety swept down upon the little mai
den, and for season there was quiet.
But the services were grievously long to
such little worshiper, and she became
very restless, walking up and down the
pew and signing audibly. Mamma whis-
pered comfortingly, "Papa's almost
through DEAR" whereupon ensued another
brief period of quiet, but it was not to last.
Tired baby nature had reached it's utmost
limit of endurance, and by and by, over
the quiet listeners arose little voice
clear and plaintive and coaxing-"I Isn't
Jon most froo, papa Pr Toledo Blade.

Floods in Rivers.

1t has been noticed that the mountain
rivers of the highest ATTITUDES are espec-
tally liable to inundation but there is no
doubt that the destructiveness of such
floods is enormously increased by the dis
appearance of arboreal vegetation. In the
densely wooded uplands Of Eastern South
America the rainy season hardly discolors
the waters of the hill rivers, the network
of roots and moss acting as filter in alb
tanning its p5ddrities m95stsHsEaf 1a and re-
our swollen streams mostly comes from
treeless NOR tain slopes, and there is
abundant evidence that many of the worst
flood rivers of the Eastern continent were
once noted for the placid regularity of
their current, like the river Pc (the an
lower valley with the perils of yearly
deluge. The Emperor Julian, who passed
several years in Northern Gaul, mentions
that the depth of the Seine varied only
few feet and seemed almost unaffected by
any but the most violent rains. The diff
ference of minimum and maximum water
marks of the same river now amounts to
more than forty feet.
The horrors of the Johnstown disaster
have more than once been paralleled in
the valley of the Ardeche, not more than
hundred years ago one of the most pro-
ductive regions of Southern France, but
now almost worthless for agricultural
purposes on account of the frequency of
devastating floods. In 1916 the waters of
that little highland stream rose sixty feet
in few hours, and some women who
were busy washing at the brink of the
lower river had no time to save their linen
and barely escaped with their lives,
though they fled instantly on hearing the
roar of the approaching torrent. When
ever that torrent descended in the night,
the defile of the Point dare was checked
with corpses and debris, and the geologist.
Defontaine, estimates that on two different
occasions the Ardeche discharged more
water than the river Nile does at the end
of the rainy season. The floods of the
Adige, in Northern Austria. and of the
Martha, in the Eastern Balkans, have al
most depopulated certain districts of their
lower valleys.
But the worst flood river on earth is the
Yang tse Kiang, "the curse of China" as
it has Justly been called. The loss of life
during it's last inundation has been moder-
ately estimated at 75O, 0OO-even after de-
Quoting several hundred thousand victims
of the subsequent famine and the thous-
ands slain by marauders and hunger
crazed cannibals. There is no doubt but |
its foods have done to the Chinese nation
more harm than all their wars, rebellions |
and epidemics taken together. Overland |

Governor Francis has appointed nearly
100 leading and influential citizens from
all sections of Missouri to assist him il
securing the worlds fair for 1892 for st
Louis. Local citizens are very active also
in their efforts to secure the fair for St
Louis.
The Piedmont Fair Association of Geor
gia has offered prize of 5000 for the best

The South.
1T HAS BECOME THE FIELD FOR CAPITAL,
ENTERPRISE AND LABOR.

ENTERPRISE AND LABOR.
The South holds out to- day the greatest
promise to capital, enterprise and industry
ever offered in any age or country. While
1t has been endowed in the most prodigal
manner with all the elements necessary to
the creation of great industries, circum-
stances that are matter Of history have, till
recent years, kept these great matters in
the background, so they might have existed
in the center of the earth for all the benefit
they have been to civilization and the peo-
pie. But great revolution has taken
place. The whole fabric of Southern in
dustry has been remodeled and the hitherto
neglected natural wealth is being sought
out and utilized as fast as capital and in
dustries can be brought to bear upon it.
The resources of the South are incalcula-
to the supply of all the industries of the
whole country for unlimited time. Mean
while there is large population at the
handing year after year more and more
machinery, implements, utensils, fabrics
and manufactured articles of all kinds.
We must once and for all abandon the
old idea that the South is behindhand in
patience all over the country to share the
latest advantages of discovery and inven-
ton. Steam and electricity have placed
all sections pretty much on par in intel
igence, and the electric light, only few
years ago curiosity in New York, to-day
Eliminates every town in the South claim
ing any importance. The same may be
said of telephone communication and "a
az - II,
the first in the country to employ electricity
for the propulsion of it's street cars. The
South is indeed full of the spirit of pro-
gTess, but at present, owing to the neglect
OF past years, during which cotton growing
was the prime consideration, and also from
a scarcity of capital TO invest in the requi-
site plants, the country presents an an
omaly of a multitude of wants to be sup
piled, unlimited natural resources for sup
plying them, yet scarcely anything ade-
quate in the shape of manufacturing
industries to bridge the gap, and adapt the
products of field, forest and mine to the
wants of the people,
The revolution that has set in abounds
with encouragement for ali who are en-
gagged in productive industry-whether in
farming, in bringing forth or raising the
raw material as cotton, wool, lumber,
minerals, or in the varied departments of
manufacturing. For all of these occupa-
tions there is ample room and opportunity,
and never before were the conditions SO
favorable The South wants capitalists,
manufacturers, artisans, farmers and in
dustrious, thrifty settlers of all classes,
and gives them the sure promise of large
returns on capital invested, with compe-
tence and prosperity as the result of intel
ligent, well directed labor.-7Ae (N. ~

The Franklin, KY, Faoorite says among
the rubbish in the store room of the late
William ]. Hilton, little old faded note
book was picked up which contained some
odd suggestions to his sons as to how they
should proceed in life after he had passed
to his reward. Among other things he
suggests the following: "Above all things
on earth, never vote for any tax on any
thing, except for railroad, in case you
have no way of getting your country pro-
duce off. Then you may create tax Tor
railroad as the difference in getting your
produce to market will pay your taxes.
