fcw weeks ago II looked as II the last con

letic Club. and that the organization would
soon become thing OF tho past Internal dis
sonsion was said to be the rock upon which
the club. which had brought of six battles
without the slightest interference. was
likely to 20 to pieces. The Board OF
Directors were unahl, to agree with
the business manager. He wished to run the
club without the slightest attenti n to their
wishes. A hint from the director OF tho organ
ization always put tho business department on
Its mettlc. and the result was that something
was done directly against tho desire or orders
OF tho proprietors. for tho Board OF Directors
are really the owners OF the Coney Island Ath-
letio Club. Each succeeding baltic saw
widening OF the breach between the depart
ments.
At the Dixon-Jo ohm ston contest the heads OF

NATIVE WHITE PINE.
A. an Ornamental Tree 1t Stands Ds
servedly High.

A an Ornamental Tree 1t Stands Do
servediy High.
Undoubtedly the most majestic ana
picturesque tree of northern forests Is
the familiar white pine, and no otner
is so valuable in the common arts OF
life. IL has wide range throughout the
north, extending from Newfoundland
to Winnipeg, and covering immense
tracts in Maine, New York and Mlchl-
gan. 1t is found scattered along the
Allegheny mountains to Georgia, al
though in lower levels it reaches little
beyond Michigan and New York. 1t
follows the sandy shores OF Lake Mich
igan throughout their length upon the
east The white pine is the leading
lumber-tree of northern forests, al
though much of the Michigan, Wiscon-
sin and Minnesota pine lumber is the
product of Pinus resinosa, the red or
so-called Norway pine.
As an ornamental tree the white
pine deservedly stands high; for while
it is a strong grower, its long and hex-
lie leaves relieve it from that feeling
of harshness which attaches to the
Austrian and Scotch species. And its
very familiarity is a strong point in its
favor. for it strengthens the ties OF old
associations, and carries out thoughts
into our own woods and over our own
hillsides. 1t takes kindly to cultiva-
ton, too, demanding only a dry and
rather loose soil, and no extra atten-
ton. 1t is too coarse for the immedi-
ate vicinity of the house, yet it can
come closer than the other large pines

AGRICULTURAL NOTES.

THERE'S not farm where grain has
been fed, especially cotton or linseed
meal, but the evidence may be read in
the fertility of the soil These grains
are so rich in plant food that the ami
mails take but small per cent in
their passage through the body.
j. j. MEcHI, the well-known Eng
lish scientific farmer, says that while
he hates cruelty, he thinks it real hui
manity to remove the horns of cattle.
and at the cost of temporary suffering
to secure them a peaceful enjoyment
for the rest of their lives.
ExPERIMENTERs on the other side of
the Atlantic, B. F. Johnson tells US in
the Country Gentleman, have found
that by cheap method of supplying
atmospheric electricity to the growing
crop the yield of potatoes has been in
creased from 800 to $50 bushels per
acre.
AN intelligent farmer, milking TWEEN
ty-one cows, stated that five of these
did not pay their way, though the
average production of the whole herd
was 225 pounds yearly. At the same
time he could not see that it would be
for his interest to dispose of the five
and milk sixteen.
IFyou keep poultry in pens and yards
throw in all the vegetable and garden
truck you can spare, reduced to eata-
BILE size Raw potatoes, onions, turnips,
carrots, cabbage, beets, celery tops,
etc, chopped fine, all will aid in pro-
ducing winter eggs, and remember
meat of some kind is almost neces-
sity.
SPEAKING of peach trees on law1
which is frequently mown, Thorn as
Meehan says: If one is situated sc
that he can top dress the ground With
fertilizing material occasionally, that
treatment is the very best cultiv alton
for fruit trees, because of the coz olness

The long, slim cones of this pine dis
tinguish it from all its congeners in the
east, and they have about them more
grace of form than aoy other pine
cones which come within the possibil-
tiles of our gardens.
But the white pine is most char
acteristically part of our landscape
when it stands alone in some field or
on some declivity, shorn of some of its
limbs, and bravely struggling against
the inevitable march of time. We ap-
peal to our readers to spare these
isolated sentinels; and we hope that
they will not forget to give the young
