SONG OF THE svHEEr 5musIoIAn.

~
When the warm rains fall, when the bright
suns shine.
When the sap is flowing back in the long
grapevine,
When the lambs begin to bleat and the leaves
begin to grow,
Merrily follow with the fiddle and the bow.
My father has harp, its sound is very
sweet,
We stand beneath the balconies together on
the street;
He is thinking of the land where the pleas.
ant olives grow;
But l can think of nothing but the twanging
of the bowl
Happy are the orchards, rosy with their
fruit;
Happy are the long nights when the string is
mute;
Happy is the sreensward where this ma:dens
Dancing to the music of the fiddle and the
bow!
Now the earth is frosty, now tn, sky is pale
Tho leaves begin to fall AMI tho Is begin
TO wall:
Mingled with this night storm, muiied with
the snow,
Listen at your windows to tn, twanging of
the bow.

Train I,obbIng in tho West

In the good old times, when a traveller
took journey in stage coach, ho
carried pistols ready for immediate use.
and was on tho lookout for highwaymcp
all along tho road.
But our modern robbers do not caro- 10
bother with small matters. A stage Ia
safe enough, except down in Mexico.
where 1t is common thing for fow
dashing knights of the rond to stop
coach and strip tho passengers, leaving
them to make their way to the next
town attired in II stray copy of the Now
York HeraM. In this civilized country,
however, the Dick Turpns of tho pro.
sont dry have their minds directed to
bigger things. They will be satisfied
with nothing smaller than railway
passenger train.
Tho recent action of the Arizona
Legislature In imposing tho penalty OF
death for train robbing has brought this
nuisance prominently before the public.
In review OF the situation tho
New York HcraM cnumcrates more than
twenty train robbcries within the past
three years. These robbcrio, all
occurred in Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas.
the Indian Territory, Ohio, Arkansas,
Arizona and Illinois, but most of them
occurred in Texas. The robbers at
different times secured 500, 600, $40
600, $40, 900, SEQ, 900 and $40, 900. More
than half dozen train men have lost
their lives in these encounters.
In tho majority of the cases mentioned
the train robbers escaped unhurt, and
were never captured. Generally the
number of robbers is small. 1t is rare
for gang to be composed Of moro than
six mon. They take train by surprise
In M out of the way place, and 90
through it in perhaps two minutes.
When pistols fail to intimidatc, the bold
marauders have moro than once produced
dynamite cartridges. The prospect of
being blown up induces the brayest men
to surrender. = Times Democrat.

Raising Onion Snta

Onion 'scts' arc small onions that are
planted in the fall or spring for tho pur-
pose OF producing green onions for pull.
ing early in the spring, or for growing
crop OF large onions. For the latter
purpose, especially, il is desirable, in.
deed essential, that the sets be quito
small, not more than half an inch in
diameter. If the sets are too large, in
stead of forming largo bulbs they will
run up to seed. For furnishing green
onions for pulling i'll spring some gar.
ucners prefer good sized sets, rs thoy
mako stronger and earlier growth.
There is general impression that tho
seed for onion sets should be sown lato
and ON poor land. On the contrary, tho
seed cannot be sown too carly in spring
or on too rich land. Tho real point is to
SOW very thick, say twenty seeds to each
inch Of row. Ono practical difficulty in
sowing so thick is tc get tho seeds to
germinate. AS every farmer knows, DO.
fore seed can gcrminato itmust absorb
considerable water, or, rs wo say.
swell" II absorbs this wntor from tho
soil in Immediate contact with tho seed.
But when you have largo number of
seeds in small place only those
in direct contact with tho soil
will get moisture. Tho others
will remain dry and hard. and somo-
times "burn." There nro two remedies
for this difficulty. Either SOW very
early in tho spring when the ground is
moist, and when we are likely to have an
abundance OF rain, or soak tho seed two
or three days before sowing. We shy
two or three days, but by this wo do not
mean that tho seed should remain
in tho water for that length of time.
Soak tho seed for twelve hours, and
then throw it on to slovo or cloth and
let tho water drain off. Keep tho seed
in moist state i'll n warm room four or
live hours and then soak it again in
fresh winter another twelve hours, and
keep repeating this till you arc ready to
sow. Aftor such treatment for two or
three days, if the weather will not por-
nit sowing, Tut tho seed in cold room
and no harm will be done. Wo have
kept the seed moist until IL commenced
TO sprout without harm. In fact, wo
never had better sets than from this
sproutcd seed. We repeat that carly
spring, rich land, thick seeding and
clean culture nrc tho great sccrcis Of
success. .imericnm .lgri.n'tWia.

admirable trait of euietness Whom the
combs are being handled. They do not
fly of or crawl over and cluster on one
end or side Of the combs, but keep their
places quietly until driven away by the
operator. DURING the honey season they
arc very easily handled, but when
swarming, thoy arc crosser than our
native boes. When robbers arc around
in the fall, they become fierce, and de-
fend their store well. They also defond
their homes in superior manner against

bad for blonde Hair.

Natural gas has made enemies among

do with it. When burning gas is intro
duced into the same apartment with
blonde hair and allowed to remain there,
the peculiar action of ono upon the
other will develop. Some ladies arc no.
attached to their hair; this is unnatural
blost of the fair sex glory in their hair;
this is natural. But, whether natural
or not, i'll either case, hair of golden hue
always suffers from association with
natural gas
Notwithstanding this effect, there is
an affinity which draws tho two togeth-
er, and blonde hair cannot ESCAPE the
influence OF its ardent plague when tho
two come into intimate relations. Tho
effect is impcrccptiblc at first, and it is
only after u certain period of close asso.
cintion that the pernic:ous and utterly
demoraiizinS influence upon blonde hair
IS apparent and the hitherto unknown
character Of the deceptive gas is discov-
