NUT TREES IN OUT-OF-THE-wAY
PLACES.

What could be more appropriate than
nut trees scattered along our roadways.
and what better work could a farmer do
than to plant them along his place. They
should not be planted densely so as to
snade the roadway and thus cause it
to be damp and even muddy as we some
times see densely shaded driveway1 Let
them be planted 20 TO 30 feet apart
What can be finer than a row of but
ternuts along the roadway, with their
broad spreading branches, and comfort
able homelike air. They can be made
profit as we'll as a pleasure too. good
tree VIII bear several bushels of nuts
annually and they are worth from 70
cents to 81 per bushel. They are worth
more than that to eat during the long
winter evenings at home. What a ire
mendous amount single mile of roaS-
way would produce, If lined on both si$e;
with thirty trees. Why one township
would produce in this way more nuts
than are now consumed by the whole
state of Wisconsin,; and if our Wisconsin
roadways were thus utilized as a rule
we could supply the whole United States
and have some left to send across the
pond.
Nor are the roadways the only waste
places. There are thousands of rough.
rocky corners, steep side hills and pas
ture lands that might be made valuable
and ornamental really, by the planting
of nut and fruit trees at random even il
they cannot be put in regular order Hun
dredS of dollars of real value may be
added to some farms in this way. The
premises will also be beautiful and pro-
tected.
TO come back again to the question OF
planting the roadwayS as suggested. how
pleasant 1T would make our country
drives. How much it would protect JUS
from the sweeping winds of winter, and
If planted on both sides how. it woAld
protect the roadways from that nuisance
or drifting to an impossible condition In
times of heavy driving snows.-Wiscon-

U. p. FAST MAIL CHANGES.
Effective Yesterday and Brings
Eastern Mail Earlier.

Effective Yesterday and Brings
Eastern Mail Earlier.
Under the new schedule the fast mail
noon, five minutes earlier than at pres
ent, and will allow twenty minutes
leeway between Omaha and Cheyenne,
but will pick Ap the twenty minutes
between Cheyenne and Ogden, and will
arrive at the latter point at 2 a. m,
but fifteen minutes later than the pres
ent schedule time.
The important change made by the
schedule that went into effect yeSrer-
day will be made on the Kansas divi-
sion of the Union Pacific and will re-
suit in giving the Union Pacific the
fast mail business that was formerly
handled by the Kansas City, st. Joseph
81 Council Bluffs between Kansas City
and Council Bluffs. Under the new
card the Union Pacific train on the
Kansas division, which formerly left
Kansas City at $3.50 a. M, will now
leave at 10:40 a. M, connecting with
the Missouri Pacific fast mail train,
which leaves ST. Louis at a. m. and
arrives at Kansas City at 1890. This
mail was formerly hauled to Council
Bluffs by the K. c., making connec-
lions with the Union Pacific fast mail
when that train left Omaha at 5:45.
When the new fast schedule went into
effect a couple of weeks ago, it was
thought that the Missouri Pacific would
put on a fast mail train that would
land this mail at Portal in time to
catch the new Union Pacific fast mail
west. The Missouri Pacific failed to
make the changes necessary to make
the connection at Portal, and then the
Union Pacific undertook to care for the
ST. Louis fast mail. The new train on
the Kansas division of the Union Pa
cific will leave Kansas City at 10:40
a. m. and will reach Cheyenne at Ills
a. m. of the next day, making the run
of 745 miles in twenty-one hours and
thirty-five minutes, in addition to doing
the local work on the Kansas division.
It will be a train of eight or nine cars,
and will be the fastest local train in the
west. 1t will make connection at Chey-
enne with the Union Pacific westbound
fast mail.

IAN inspection of the tables herein

the argument now needed for the con-
tinuation of the building programme
heretofore indicated by the action of
Congress. We are not in want of orii-
nary unarmored cruisers or of gum
boats, but we are lamentably deficient
in torpedo boats, and we certainly need
more battleships. An inspection of the
building programmes of other nations
will demonstrate that the lessons
taught at Yalu and We Hal Wei have
tended to confirm the belief of naval
experts throughout the world in the
efficacy of these two classes of vessels.
4 respectfully recommend the con-
struction of two battleships and at
least twelve torpedo boats.''

r.. R. PRESIDENTS AGREEMENT.
Will ExperimentWith Lines East of

Will ExperimentWith Lines East of
the Missouri.
The far-reaching and sweeping agree
ment recently perfected by the railway
presidents, and looking to consolidation
and pooling of the different interests,
mas aroused much talk in eastern COM
mercial centers, and the press in vari-
Gus OF the large cities have undertaken
to figure UP results in an endeavor to
show that about four thousand men
connected with general agencies all
through the country will be minus jobs.
This matter was taken up by The
Herald before it was generally known
that any such move was under way,
and months ago this paper made clear
what in this late day is stirring up
people at the river and on east of
there.
While the new agreement is a direct
blow at such agencies, it's intention ul-
timately being to lop off all such eX-
penditures, it must be borne in mind
that it will not be done in a day, nor
yet in a year, as all great reforms
must be nursed into vigorous vitality
ere they will stand alone. 1t must be
learned if the new agreement has
come to stay before the roads will
close their offices, as the closing would
be costly if found that a mistake had
been made. 1t is well known that in
the past iron-clad rules so often made
by the roads have as often been broken,
and maybe in this instance. Still, it
is not well to forget that there is a
power now over and above all the pres
idents, and one that can call for the
resignation Of any one of the trunk
line presidents if so desired.
j. Pierpont Morgan is that power,
q nd oil
admit it.
However, the lines east of the river
will be the playground first selected for
adoption of the new rule, and all west
of the river will be left undisturbed for
a goodly length of time. General agents
out here need not borrow any trouble
before 1897.

wires along the Union Pacific from
Omaha westward.
President Chandler. of the company,
has been in Omaha comforting with all
the interested parties, and court deci-
sions are in no way unfavoraIble to the
Postal company. AS the matter now
stands, the Union Pacific and Western
Union wires are all on one set of poles,
and should additional wires prove too
heavy, the court may order that the
Union Pacific wires be put on their own
poles as formerly, and commercial
business be given a show.

fight against "Kid' Madden at New

The injury was a painful one, but no
serious result was anticipated. However,
in healing, the bone has gradually pro-
truded, until now it appears it will be
utterly out of the question for Barry to
use the injured member in another
battle. The best surgical skill was SCI

COLUMBUS, OHIO, June 23.-The sec

morning with a rehearsal of the wand ex-
ercise, participated in by all the societies
represented. The remainder OF the forenoon
was devoted to individual contests in heavy

and leaping.
Tonight the grounds of the association
were filled by one of the largest crowds
ever assembled there. The contests Of So

principal features. The festivities will be
continued tomorrow. Tomorrow after
noon the annual election of officers will be
