ONE of the best results of the parliament
of religions has been q better understand
ing, among enlightened minds, between
Catholics and Protestants in America.
writes Rev DIR John Henry Barrows in the
Forum. wkea the American Catholic
archbishops, with the knowledge and con-
ant of the vatican, decided to take part in
tn parli Iment, they did much to give the
meeting its historic importance. The
falthfulness with which they carried out
their part of the programme. the ability.
courtesy and kindness of their speakers,
made wholesome impression on many
minds, and, although the months which
have followed have been filled with acri-
monious attacks on the Catholic church.
there has yet been better understanding
between many Catholics and Protestants
in America than ever heretofore. The
fanatic,sm and wicked folly of the methods
of the American Protective association
have not destroyed the recollections of
those golden days when, for the first time
in history. Protestant and Catholic diyines
sat together in loving fellowship. The
participation of the Catholic bishops made
the official refusal of the English church
to participate in the congress appear al
most ridiculous. But the generous and
liberal sentiment. spoken by Cardinal
Gibbons. Archbishop Redwood. Bishop
Keane and others were the features which
particularly impressed American Protest.

Summer Mulching.

If your fruit trees suffer in sum-
mer for the want of moisture and
you are so situated that the land
cannot be irrigated, try mulching
with coarse hay, straw or any
similar material. Apply the
mulch early in the season, and
spread it on to a depth of 3 or 4
inches, and when beaten down by
the rain it will prevent the rapid
evaporation of moisture from the
soil underneath and also keep
down the weeds and save the eX-
pense of cultivat!ng your orchard.
This is natures method of keeping
the soil moist about the roots of
trees in the forests, and there are
many cultivators of fruits who are
practicing it.

The Register is younger in wisdom
