Ct. w. Prescott of Highland, who took
the medal for the best box of packed or
anges at the late California State Citrus
fair, has been experimenting with iron
filings in his young orchard. Being
master mechanic of the Santa Fe system
in southern California at San Bernardo
no, he knew more about iron filings than
he did about guano or any other fer
tilizer, and knowing that certain
amount of iron in the soil was essential
to healthy growth of the tree andnthe
production of fruit he put five pounds
of this material around each tree, and as
a result he has highly colored orange,
where before he had pale colored fruit.
The cost is insignificant. A thousand
trees ON ten acres will require 5000
pounds of filings, which costs 81 per ton
$40 for the ten acre orchard. OF course
this application of iron is not intended
20 supersede all other fertilizers, but
simply to. supplement them in order to
give good color to the fruit and enable
the grower to put an attractive orange
on the market, and incidentally to assist
him occasionally in winning gold
medal The railroad shops at San Ber-
nardino can furnish one ton per day of
this material, and other shops can also
assist in supplying the demand. Pro

Military Academy.

The first shot in the late war was fired
by the cadets of the South Carolina Mil
itary academy, which occupies spacious
and formidable looking building called
the Citadel, which was originally con-
structed for an arsenal The organiza-
ton and curriculum are similar TO those
of the United States academy at West
Point. After the ordinance of secession
was adopted the cadets were ordered to
report for guard duty and We're manning
a battery ON Morris island, when, on
Jan. 8, 1861, the Star Of the West at
tempted to enter the harbor with sup
plies and re-enforcements for Fort Sum-
ter. The impulsive boys took the re-
sponsibility of driving her back, firing
a shot across her bows TO give warning
The steamer Immediately ran mp the
United States flag and increased her
speed. The shots fell thick and fast
around her, and when one struck her in
the stern the commander thought it
prudent TO retreat and turned his vessel
seaward. The cadets of this institution
believe that act entities them TO the
homage Of the south, and the prestige
thus acquired has made them the objects
of envy throughout that whole section.

Right Rev. William Croswell Doane,
S. r. d., LII. D., is one of the best
known clergymen in the Episcopal
church He was born in Boston in 1882,
was graduated from Burlington college
in 1850, and in 1856 was ordained a
priest and became rector of st. Barna-
bas' church, Burlington, which he
founded.
In 1867 he was elected rector of ST.
Peters church, Albany, and two years
later when the diocese of Albany was
formed he was elected bishop at the
early age of 81. During his long regime,
the twenty fifth anniversary of which
was celebrated in January, 1894, the
diocese has greatly prospered. The bishop
is an excellent business man as well as
an erudite Clergyman, and he not only
founded ana raised the money for ST.
Agnes Schooi For Girls. but was instru-
mental in establishing nine or ten other
benevolent institutions His greatest
work of this character, however, was
the building of the Cathedral of All
Saints The bishop is very English in
appearance and is fond of dogs and chill
dren.
