A Quiet Home Wedding Observed Mon
day Forenoon.
Wesley E. Woodland and Miss Anna
on Monday forenoon, at the residence
of the brides father, Samuel @. Roper,
4l5 Washington street. Rev. DR.. John
son, of St. Paul's Episcopal church, was
the officiating clergyman. The wedding
was quiet and unpretentious affair,
plain yet beautiful in its every feature.
In the parlor, which contained hand
some banking of house plants and fra
grant flowers, the brief, impressive ser
vice ofthe Episcopal ritual was said, the
bride being given away by her father,
who was her only attendant. She was
attired in a travelling habit and carried
a bouquet of BRIDES roses. The groom
was unattended. Following the cere-
mony the bridal couple and the small
company of relatives and near friends
present were seated at palatable we'd
ding breakfast, and on the 2:23 P. NJ.
train Mr.. and Mrs Woodland departed
for Milwaukee, whence they went in the
evening on trip to Mankato and other
points IN Minnesota. They will soon
return to make their home in this city,
where both are we'll known and have
the sincere wishes of all for happiness
and prosperity Many beautiful we'd
ding gifts were received by them.
The following guests from out of town
were at the wedding: Mr.. and Mrs. T.
w. Anderson, Stevens Point; Miss Flor
ence Sargent. New London, n. H.; Mrs.
D. w. Moore and Mrs. J. S. Morris,

0Tha Union Scout.v

For an amateur entertainment, 1.-The
Union Scout" at Turner Opera house,
last Wednesday and Thursday even
ings, was as successfully presented as
any performance ever put on the
stage here. 1t was given by a force
Of we'll known young people who,
under the direction Of M. g..
Dillenback, very agreeably surprised
the large audiences with their his
trionic abilities. All the characters
of the play..were we'll taken, but espe-
cial mention might be made of the
comedy elements in the hands of w.
J. Stacy, Max E. Gritzner, Mrs. Agnes
Keen and Mr.. Dillenback, who sue
ceeded in keeping their hearers in a
continual good humor. E. Robert
Kniesel, as Colonel Jack Woodruff,
made his friends proud of him by his
eloquent attainments, and in his death
scene in the rebel prison pen he
gave an exceptionally fine piece of act
ing, we'll worthy of many with greater
pretentions An attractive feature of the
programme was the Colum bian march
and sword drill, which opened the
entertainment Enlisted in this were
twenty good-looking Young girls. and
they went through the different move
ments with pleasing grace and exact
ness. Nine beautiful tableaux, perfect
ly arranged, were also much admired,
and the drill of the Sacred Heart cadets,
under Captain E. j. Walsh, came in
for the full share of popular approval.
The Women's Relief corps, under
whose auspices the entertainment was
given, are over 500 ahead on the YEN

ROTATION OF CROPS.


Practice That Assists Ia the Thorough
determination OF Weeds
Rotating the farm with different
crops serves not only to prevent loss Of
fertility, but also assists in killing
weeds with no extra cost than that re-
quircd for cultivating the crop that
may be grown during the season. Corn
has proved Of as much value to farmers
In compelling them to kill weeds as it
has in providing grain and fodder, and
II q farm should be devoted wholly to
the crops that are drilled or broad.
casted, and which cannot be cultivated
such as wheat, rye, barley and oats
there would arrive a time when weeds
would have full possession. To pre-
vent this condition Of affairs the farms
are made to grow crops that must Of
necessity be cultivated, and In SO doing
there Is o saving Of labor in the killing
Of weeds.
The rotation with corn as the only
cultivated crop, however, Is too limited,
as the land is thus made to produce
grain Of some kind every year, which Is
detrimental, as depriving it Of certain
plant foods and leaving an excess, conf
paratively, Of that which cannot be
utilized by grain crops
One cause of weeds nourishing on
some soils Is that they thrive on plant
foods left over by the grain crops, a
condition which renders the soilimpov-
erished for other grain crops, yet very
fertile for weeds because the weeds
are able to get good start, make
rapid growth, secure abundant moist
ure below the surface and deprive the
land of that which was not utilized by
the crops, the result being that the soil
Is still further impoverished. This
may be prevented by growing root
crops after corn, to be followed by
clover or some grass crop.
No two crops of the same kind should
be grown on the land in succession, and
q crop that Is sowed or drilled should
be followed by planted crop the next
year, to keep the soil clean. Wheat,
corn, oats, potatoes, corn and clover,
followed by wheat again, Is q rotation
