THE NATIONAL ROAD.
A Historical Highway Partially Built By
the General Government.

A Historical Highway Partially Built By
the General Government.
Are you old enough to remember the
national road?
Before railroads were either plenty
or much needed, the general govern
ment undertook that historic highway
starting from Baltimore and going
through Wheeling and Cincinnati to
the Mississippi river. The work was,
in general, so good that it took several
years of neglect on the part of the
local authorities, after the highway
was surrendered to the counties, to
make the national look like the other
roads in its vicinity. That road was
built for military purposes, and now
the people are asked to do work of the
same kind for their own pleasure, con-
venienee and profit.
Pioneers will tell you what an ad-
vantage the national road was tc them
in the early days. 1t will be found
also that the prosperous new state in
pioneer times was known by its su.
perior state roads. By tradition and
almost by hereditary instinct the Amer
lean people ought to be a nation Of
road builders.
The trouble is that, in the general
rush and hurry of improvement in 9th
er directions, the steam railroad and
even the trolley lines bid fair to take
the item of road building out of the
hands of the people altogether. Sure
", besides these means of transit and
transportation, q neighborly, civilized
nation like this needs good roads that
will be, SO to speak, the peoples own
private thoroughfares for their use in
the friendly intercourse OF lifei
The shiftless road maker has long
been a subject of ridicule; but the
good-roads movement finds him Dui-
sance and an obstruction. His methods
must be summarily swept aside--Once

THE FARMING WORLD.
TRAINING TOMATOES.
How to Support the Vines to Keep Them
| on the Ground.

How to Support the Vines to Keep Them
on the Ground.
A correspondent asks about the best
way to train tomatoes. We presume
our friend wants to know how best to
support them to keep them off the
ground, and prevent them from rot
ting, as they are apt to do when
allowed to fall down and grow unre-
stricted.
There are several plans that are
good, says the Farm. One is to drive
four stakes around the plant about
two feet apart and fasten crossties To
them. making a square support and
training the vines to grow up over
these and droop down the outside.
This does very well if the vines are to
be allowed to grow as rankly as they
will, and where the crop is of any size
is about the best way we know Of For
the number of plants that are grown
IN an ordinary garden we prefer to tie
each vine to single stake three feet
high, and keep it pretty well pruned.
We allow branch to start out and
grow until blossoms appear on it and
pinch it off just above the blossoms.
All the numerous branches that spring
out along the sides are looked after
and kept picked off and the whole
strength of the vine is reserved fo- a
few punches of fruit. This causes the
fruit to be larger and to mature bet
ter, and in the end about as much in
weight will be produced as would be
If the vine were allowed to run wild.
Tomatoes stand any amount offertil-
izing and need a great deal of water
if the weather is dry, they will survive
the se7erest drought. We cover the
surface around the plants with scrap
ings from the barnyard and gradual
ly work this fertilizer into the soil in
the course of cultivation. When we
have occasion to water the plants we
put not less than two gallons to each
plant, and the next morning cultivate
the ground thoroughly. This liberal
watering will do for three or four
DAYS, as the cultivation makes a mulch
of fine soil on the surface and prevents
rapid evaporation. Tomatoes respond
readily to good care, and it pays to
give it to them.

those fireworks at what Americans call
panic prices" and that therefore the
entire affair was, in a sense, i'm
promptu. But, howeverit was brought
about, the celebration was success,
and every Chinese fire sprite in the
District of Columbia was present and
participating. If these peculiar for
eigners commence celebrating our
Fourth of July all over the country,
they may yet become citizens and take
part in our elections. They would
surely vote for those politicians who
might be shrewd enough to furnish
them the most fireworks; just as so
many of our misguided citizens vote for
fire water dispensers. In that event,
the Chinese would be the better and
more patriotic citizens.

this timber toe strapped to my stump
l found myself invalided out of the
army and untitled for any active oecu-
patton.
''I was, as you can imagine, pretty
down on my luck at this time, for l
was a useless cripple, though not yet
in NV twentieth year. However, my
misfortune soon proved to be a bless
ing in disguise. A man named Abel
white, who had come out there as an
indigo-planter, wanted an overseer to
look after his coolies and keep them up
to their work. He happened to be a
friend of our coloneIs, who had taken
an interest in me since the accident.
To make a long story short, the colonel
recommended me strongly for the post
and. as the work was mostly to be
done on horseback, my leg was no
great obstacle, for 1 had enough knee
left to keep good grip. on the saddle.
What had to do was to ride over the
plantation, to keep an eye on the men
as they worked, and to report the
idlers. The pay was fair, l had COM
Portable quarters, and altogether 1 was
content to spend the remainder of my
life in indigo-planting. Mr.. Abelwhite
was a kind man, and he would often
drop into my little shanty and smoke a
pipe with me, for white folk out there
feel their hearts warm to each other as
they never do here at home.
''Well, l was never in lucks way
long. Suddenly, without a note of
warning, the great mutiny broke upon
us. One month India lay as still and
peaceful, to all appearance, as Surrey
or Kent; the next there were two hun
dred thousand black devils let loose,
and the country was perfect hell. OF
course you know all about it, gentle
men-a deal more than do, very like

powder ever smeIled before, and tho
smoke which filed the air was almost
suffocating. There appeared to be an
| aroma of burning opium, but what
ever it was, it was terrible and almost
terrifying to American nostrils.
Towards midnight they brought out
whole sheafs of American-made sky
rockets to which they had attached
bamboo tails with packs of firecrackers
for aerial display. These were fred off
by dozens. In fact the entire celebra-
ton was carried on by wholesale.
They had evidently purchased the last
remnants of the stock of some dealer
who disposed of them at cost. The dis
play was as lavish as might have been
expected at inauguration time and at
government expense. The skyrocket
part of the show lasted nearly half an
hour, but the firecrackers kept on pop
ping all the time and the wild dancing
of the Cinnamon was as continuous as
though an army Of Japs was after
them.
Then came the colored lights The
curbstones were covered with little
boxes containing colored powder and
for fifteen minutes the scene was bril-
liant. The smoke arose as incense and
pervaded the upper atmosphere until
the stars were almost entirely OBJ
scured. During this performance some
giant crackers were produced and
scores of them cracked the air. The
| louder the noise the merrier were the
peculiar foreigners who were celebrat-
ing our national birthday. But these
giant noise-makers were mere popguns
as compared with the final explosion Of
Celestial patriotism. If John Milton
and Signor Dante could have witnessed
the scene they might have written with
keener inspiration. A string of giant
crackers about twenty feet long and
thicker than a mans arm was pro-
duced as a final crack o. doom.
1t was started by a Chinaman as big
as Goliath. He seemed to be the boss
of the whole affair, and when he
marched forth with that big roll, or
log of fire, the whole colony came down
from their houses and porches to form
ring around it. For fully five minutes
there was pandemonium unequaled
save by an actual artillery battle.
Each particular cracker doomed like a
field piece, aud finally four or more
went off at once, almost SCATTERING the
windows of the neighborhood. And
the Chinese Fourth was over. It was
the greatest Fourth of July celebration
ever witnessed in this city. 1t was
unique because Il was so unexpected,
and because the source was so surpris-
ing. 1t was not advertised, but it drew
an immense audience. If anybody had
expected that such show was possible
or probable, every little boy in the city
would have insisted upon being there.
1t is quite likely that the Cinnamon
only ascertained late in the afternoon
or evening that they could obtain all OF

II there is any doubt of the advisable
ity of dehorning cattle in general.
there can be no doubt OF the advisa-
bility of dehorning the bad-tempered
animal that is prone to drive his fell
lows from the water or feed trough, or
from the shelter. This animal does
not profit from the hurt it does others
The quarrelsome animal never makes
as much fat or milk from its feed as il
would were it quiet and peaceable, and
it reduces the thrift of the animals il
deprives of feed, water or shelter, if il
does not injure them In nearly every
case such an animal will be thorough
ly reformed by dehorning; it viii be
among the most peaceable among the
herd. In the few cases in which this
effect is not produced the animals ca
pacity to injure its fellows is much
lessened, and they will soon learn this
and will not be imposed upon by it

SLOP FOR DAIRY COWS.
Another Popular FaIlacy Dlsproved by
Official Experiments.

Another Popular Fallacy Dlsproved by
Official Experiments.
There is a general belief that slop-
ping cows greatly increases their flow
of milk, and that the resulting yield is
correspondingly poor in butter fats;
and to prove or disprove this, the ex-
pertinent station at Guelph, Ont, has
for the past two years been expert
menting along this line, and to their
surprise there is practically nothing in
the belief. The cows, when fed the
grain in form of slop would, if fed once
a day, give slightly lower, but not uni
form, percentage of fat, about o. of l
per cent; but in every instance where
slop was fed twice day there was a
marked falling off in milk yield.
These tests were conducted in periods
of thirty days each, so as to get the
full effect of the feed, and in the gen.
eral averages the dry-grain fed cows
came out ahead.
AS to the variation of fat content of
the milk, the sum total of all the aver
ages showed that there was no more
loss in the end than the variations
found in the fat content of cows fed
dry foods, and the sum total of two
years experiments is against the idea
that slop food increases the milk yield.
If anything is to be deduced from the
tests it is that cows gave less milk if
the stopping was very marked, and the
percentages of fat yielded were actual
~ inconsequentials SO far as change was
concerned in either case.
The conclusions are that the best
''slop' that can be fed cow is good
ration of corn, silage, roots or uncured
grain folders, and the drink that COW
has is best in the form of good water,
governed by the inclination of the ami
NAL to drink.-N. Y. World

ments in the prevention of cane rust,
it would seem that the most rational
treatment for it is as follows:
In the spring, before the canes start,
spray them with solution of sulphate
of copper (blue vitrioD made by dissolv-
ing one pound of it in fifteen gallons
of water. Later, spray the new cane
with Bordeaux mixture, probably
about three times, at intervals of about
two weeks, commencing as soon as the
new canes are one foot high. Care
should be taken not to get the Bor-
deaux mixture on the leaves of the
fruit bearing canes, as they are quite

Some Msrits Of E,snara

The palatability of ensilage is one of
its great recommendations. 1t will be
eagerly eaten by stoch even when they
are. off feed, and hence it is great
help in keeping them in condition. Its
laxative qualities, by preventing con-
stipation and lessening the danger of
impaction, remove serious obstacle
from the path of dairymen. It's con-
venience and lack of waste are also
strong points in its favor. Everyone
who has given the silo fair trial
agrees that it is the best possible sub
stitute for fresh grass, and that it is a
Continuance which has come to stay.
