How Nature Grows a Tree.

Nature invariably does two things when
she tries to grow tree; she protects the
bark from hottest sunshine and the roots
from severe changes of temperature. Both
these points are almost invariably over
looked BY man. Observe maple or elm or
birch as it shoots up from the ground its
sides are clothed all the way with small
twigs, unless removed by knife or browsing.
ANY tree, starting in an open lot, is thus
protected from the sun. Otherwise the ex-
IRENE heat will rupture cells and the bark
will dry or split As far as possible there
must be equal development of cells on all
sides of the tree. But care of the roots is
even more important. The feeding of a
tree is at unequal depths, but most of it is
near the surface. II the sun be allowed TO
strike directly on the soil, the finer rootlets
that do the foraging are destroyed, and ex-
IRENE droughts will affect the roots for n
foot in depth. What is worse, the extreme
changes of temperature also affect the tire"
and suck its life away. In some cases such
conditions are produced as encourage the
development of fungi, or other enemies to
plant life. Nature guards against this by
iaving down each autumn layer Of leaves,
to emulch her forests or solitary pets.

Fear. grief and joy. to say nothing Of

They are said to come from the heart, and
this is true, for no one ever reasoned him
self into weeping without first appeal
through the Imagination to some emotion
Tears are the natural outlet Of emotional
tension. They are the result of storm in
the central nervous system, giving rise tc
changes in the vascular terminals of the
tear secreting glands. These changes in

Tears afford good illustration of the
way in which nervous libers are capable Of
conveyingto secreting organ exciting i'm
pulses from both sides Of gland lying il
their course. Niche, "all tears" and Il
unfortunate pedestrian with a minute par.
ticle of steel from the rail of an elevated
road in his eye, are unwilling opponents Of
a similar process. They weep the same
kind of briny fluid in exactly the same
way, though from widely different causes
Imagination is az times sufficient to ex.

OF tears without external aid Or reflex
Writers and readers Of good fiction weer

Early History Of the Strawberry

| fuse,! over the surface of the earth, peing

well as in the sunny chimes of ihe South IL
| is no. a tropical plant, however. an excep.
| ON mountain ii rs is not found south OF
| latitude thirty eislt degrees north On Inc
European continent IT grows extensively
from I.apIand anil the Shetland lstes TO
Italy and Greece. II is also found through
out Western .sia.but Il is unknown IN China
and Jap H. IL has grown abundantiy ON the
bleak hill. of iceland for centuries. II is
found in America from Labrador and British
Columbia 10 the pine woods of the Southern
States and Oh the high Lands of Mexico and
the Andes. The hardy plant. with It's tlny
scarlet berry may be said to girdie the earth
on the line OF the Polar Circle, and several
hundred miles southwarhs, except that 1t .
not found ia the basin of the river Amotf
in Siberia. Though history AMI story are
alike silent as to the cultivation of the
strawberry in early times we know that the
fruit was well known in England in the fif-
ieenth century Shakespeare has three aiiu-
sions to strawberries. In Henry W.. the
Bishop of Ely, in illustration of the good
qualities which the young king possessed, in
spite of his wild habits and objeetional COM
panions, says;
The strawberry grows underneath the nettle
And Wholesome berries thrive and ripen best
Ntighbored b, fruit of bascr quality.
The reference here is obviously TO the
wild berry. But in the play of Richard
H." straw berries are spoken of as growing
in the Bishop of Ely's garden at Holborn,
and this seems to show that the berry was
cultivated with considerable care as early
as the latter part of the fifteenth century.
though Haydn's Dictionary of Dates
asserts that the common straw
berry was brought to England
from Flanders in 1880. 1t is curious to
note that one hundred years after the crafty
Richard begged some of the bishops straw
berries, we find description of a garden at
Holborn, the property of the rich barber
surgeon Gerard, wherein four kinds OF
straw berries--a great variety for the time
were successfully cultivated. The third
Shakespeariau allusion to this fruit is ii

Desdemona, which was spotted Will

STORAGE Batteries for Street Railways.

An important experiment with electrical
storage batteries for car propulsion was re-
Gently tried in Milford, Massachusetts.
The people of Cambridge have determined
to head of the trolley with a storage battery
road, and asked the Milford Company
whether its motor car could carry 10 pas
sengers for 30 miles without rechsrging the
batteries The Milford people did not
know, but tried the experiment for the
benefit of the Cambridge officials.
There were only 10 passengers
but the car was loaded with pig
iron and lead until the load amounted to
9174 pounds, equivalent to 10 passengers
averaging 1870 pounds each. Thus loaded
the car ran 80 miles at an average speed OF
miles an hour. including stops, without
recharging of the batteries. A part of the
route was over long grades of 5 per cent.
and with sharp curves. The battery had
been in use on the road for several months.
There is no doubt from this experiment anil
from others that the storage battery is cap
able of giving entire satisfaction from a
mechanical standpoint.

MAINE FARMING NOTES.

As Indicating what personal effort will
accomplish when put forth in earnest, we
note the grand good results following tine
work done by our old time friend, Hon. f..
W. Stetson of Damariscotta. For years he
has been an enthusiastic believer in the
possibilities for growing more corn on the
farms of Lincoln coanty, and stopping the
enormous drain for Western grain. He has
talked ii in season, and out of season, until
this year he secured special premiums from,
the Agricultural Society and friends, for
this one object. The result is something
beyond his most saugaine expectations, and
the quality of the corn shown at the late
exhibition was a surprise to many who
doubted whether Lincoln county could grow
nm successfully That hereafter a largely
increased area will be planted to this staple
N ,ine crop, there is no question, and in the
sure benefits following to the growers credit
should GOT be withheld from him who has
ssood almost alone in that Section for this
home grown pruiuct.--Maine Farmer.

Prof. \. : Shaier in the October Atlantic
critieises the New England system of high
way building at considerable length. One
of his strong points is the charge that under
the system not only are large tracts of land
wasted or rendered useless, but that in a
state of neglee, the roadside becomes nurse
ries of noxious weeds. en;ailinx great dam
age upon the farmers. He estimates the
loss of acreage to the farms from the use
less width of roadways to be four acres to
the mile in length. Probably an average
length of roadway in the settled townships
would be not less than fifty miles, which
would. at his estimate. make = loss of 200
acres per town. In Maine, however, the
professors Indictment on this point does
not have fall force, because of the fast
growing custom of removing the fences and
filling the land close mp TO the travelled part
of the road. The past fifteen years have
wrought great changes in this respect.

Great as have been the earnings of the
great trunk line railroads this year they
will be far larger during the coming year.
The extra travel to the Worlds Fair will
alone make splendid business for these
roads, for without doubt many foreigners

hardly coutent themselves with seeing only
Chicago. and the earnings of the other
roads will also be largely increased.
