why She wanted a Continuance

An old lawyer once told about a case
he had, but which he didn't keep.
An old Irishwoman sent for him in
great haste one day. She wanted him
TO meet her in the criminal court. He
fastened to the court house all out of
breath. The woman's son was about to
be placed on trial for burglary. When
the lawyer entered the court room the
old woman rushed up To him and i'm an
excited voice said:
Mr.. b, Oi want We to git CON
tlnyance for me by Jimmie"
Every well, madam" replied the law
Yer. II will do so if can, but it will
be necessary to present to the court
some grounds for n continuance. What
shall l sayY'
"Shure, We can iist tell the court OF
want continyancc till Oi can get n
better lawyer to try the case"
The lawyer nearly tainted when he
heard this, and after telling the woman
that she would have to get another law
yer to get the continuance he hurried
back to his office very angry man.

The Apple as a Timber Tree.

In some sections of this country the
apple tree is looked on for it's product
aS Il piece OF timber. as well - a fruit
producing article. For this reason the
old German fruit growers i'm the Vicin-
ity of Philadelphia. always aimed To
get nice straight trunk to an ample
tree and train il up comparatively high
before allowing it to form head Mod
erns have supposed that the chief OBJ
ject To be gained 10y this method or
training was i'm order to facilitate
blowing operations. but the ultimate
end in having a good trunk for timber
purposes was not forgotten. In this
particular region. the wood was used
chiefly for shoemakerS' lasts-a bust
ness which, I'm the earlier history OF
Philadelphia. did much to help the
trade Of that famous manufacturing
center of population. The apple re-
gions have mostly disappeared from
that vicinity; but other sections of the
country seem to understand the value
Of apple tree wood. 1t is stated i'm the
Country Gentleman that n fruit grower
of Cayuga sold to Il wcll-known firm of
sawmakers of Philadelphia DisSton
" Sons-the trunks of some of their
trees, which were cut away because
the trees had grown too closely to-
gether, TO the value of $500. In this
case, the wood was of course used for
the handle of saws.-Meehan's.

Slept Twenty Years in n Coffin,

1t is seldom that II man dies i'm n
coffin, but thai is exactly what old Bar
ney Frickers. of Alliance. Ohio, did
when he finally gave UP the ghost IN
the fall of 1890. For more than twenty
years "Old Barney" had been haunted
with the idea that he was on the verge
Of the grave. Every evening he de-
clared that he would never again see
the sun rise. He constantly hruodcd
over his queer hallucination and never
allowed himself To go TO sleep without
being carefully prepared for death and
burial. Every night he robed himself
in his grave clothes and Solemnly laid
down in his coffin and passed the night
firmly believing and probably hoping
that for him the day would never dawn
again. Finally death came. but. grim
and sly as he was, he did not find "Old
Barney unprcparcd. The coffin in
which this queer old character had so
often awakened disappointed was of
his own make ana was said TO have
been n curiosity in itself. being liter
ally covered with all kinds. patterns
and sizes of allegOrical paintings.

There can hardly be considered n
best time to prune. Under some con
dltions one time is best, and under
Others, another. The growth and con-
dltlon OF the trees, the object TO be Sc
cured, with other things, must ALWAYS
be considered. There is no ADVANTAGE
In pruning unless there is sometime
to be gained 10y it. Whenever there
are dead or diseased limbs on The
trees, or when IA limb or branch seems
to need removal, then is when the
work should he done. When ONLY
small limbs are to be taken oil prune
with sharp knife, but with larger
limbs this rule would not always hold
good. One advantage with June prun
ing Is that the wounds heal up very
rapidly. But wounds made the latter
part OF August or carly in September
rarely If ever decay. Another item,
should be remembered, and that is.
pruning during growth tends to check
growth, while pruning while the tree
is dormant tends to promote growth

remove small limbs than TO let tho

be needed TO do necessary pruning.
Some pruning is necessary with nil
trees, but too much pruning is iuiuri-
Gus. The best rule is TO never remove
branch or limb without good reason.

EFFECT or INSECTICIDES UPON SEED GRAIN.
Stored grain is nearly everywhere
subject to the attacks of the larvae of
injurious weevils and moths; but tho
depredations are especially serious in
the warmer climates, tho inside of
every kernel of grain being sometimes
eaten out in II few weeks after harvest.
These insects may be killed before
much damage is done, by pouring
bisulid of carbon among the grain
and combining the heavy fumes by
means of n close cover, blanket, or
tarpaulin. for few hours. Grana-
ries and mills may be tightly closed
and fumigated with this poisonous and
highly inhammnble chemical. The
treated grain is rendered harmless for
food by exposure to the air which
quickly volatilizes all the carbon
bisultid; but for seed purposes, Botan-
list Il. III. Price, of the Texas Agricul-
tural College, has recently proved
that very strong fumes may have
weakened the terminating powers of
the fumigated kernels.
Only forty per cent. of the wheat
terminated, which had been exposed
to the fumes of carbon bisulfid for
three days, though, after one days
treatment, sixty-two per cent. sprouted
IN the testing pans. Nearly two-thirds
of the kernels were killed when wheat
was immersed in liquid bisulfid of
carbon for one day; but when soaked

for the same time, only -tenths
of the grains were killed. Seed wheat

or cOal-tnr camphor for three days re-
manned uniniured. Cowpeas were I'M
affected by ten days fumigation with
carbon bisulid, or thirty minutes
immersion in the liquid
Though exposure to insecticides kills
the insects, it does not remove them
from the inside of the grains; but the
infested kernels are usually lighter,
so that the tanning mill Will remove
them. Unless so treated, weevil.in-
tested grain makes an uuwholesome
food. No harm is likely to result from
the ordinary methods of fumigating
grain with carbon bisulfd in open
bins, which do not contino the fnmes
so closely as II corked bottle; but it is
well to remember that the germinat-
ing powers of seed wheat may be weak
