added with profit to those houses
which are fitted for the growing OF
frame cucumbers or tomatoes. Grow.
ers for profit, however, will do well to
go slowly. The great difficulty in
making melons profitable is the usual
ly very light yield, a plant producing
only two or three melons. Unless the
price obtained is a very high one such a
yield does not pay. Much depends
also on the season. To mature melons
we need sunshine, and this is often a
scarce article during the earlier part of
the winter. Last year, during October,
November and December, we had plenty
of it.
The melon vines are usually trained
on wires. The melons have to be sup
ported in some way. Prof. Bailey's
way is shown in the accompanying pic
ture.
The gardener at the station in Geneva
supports his melons on little pieces Of

which are hung up on the cross wires

holding stout darning-needle. The
latter penetrated the cob. and the

worthy owner evidently had no idea
that it was not an extremely clever
notion, and he is very popular clergy.

SOME VALUABLE HINTS.

How to Raise Peach and Plum Trees
from the Pits. S..
A. j. Keller, Crawford county, @,
writes to the National Stockman:;;
Please inform me through the columns
of your valuable paper how to raise
plum and peach trees from the pitss
how to treat the pits and when to plant
them; and when to transplant the trees:
and how to treat them to make them
bear fruit.
Reply: The pits do better not to dry
out. AS soon as possible after they
are taken from the fruit they should
be put in damp earth or sand and kept
moderately damp-not water-soaked
until planted. They are less trouble
when planted in the fall as soon as the
ground can be got ready. Covered with
about two inches of soil, the exposure
to the frost will crack the shells and
the kernels will be ready to grow with
the approach of spring.
If not convenient to plant in the fall,
they can be kept covered with a few
inches of soil in a corner of the gar
den where water will not stand per-
manently. But they must be looked
after very early in spring in order to
pick out the ones that have opened and
plant them.
This tendency to start early before
the ground is ready to receive them
has induced some to bury them below
the action of frost-two or two and q
half feet-and when ready for them in
spring, take them up and crack by hand,
a somewhat tedious process.
In planting the seeds, in either case
they should be pretty thick in the rows,
as they will not all grow. The rows
may be about four feet apart, and with
cultivation every ten days or SO during
the growing season they will make nice
trees by fall.
1t will be understood, of course, that
all these will vary more or less from
the present varieties, and that their
sole value-except where seedlings of
certain sort are specially desired by
way of experfment-will be as stocks
on which to bud the choice varieties.
When the budding has been success
full the buds treated according to in
structions will have grown to be four
or more feet high by the end of the sec
ond summer and may be set out in the
orchard. But peach, plum and cherry
do better transplanted in the spring.
AS to the bearing, much depends on
the varieties, some being more certain
than others; and all must take the
chances of unfavorable seasons.

THE HEAD OF RIcHELlEU.


Its Recent Exhibition and Past Experi-
ence.
The opening of the coffin in Richie
lieu's tomb at the Sorbonne has led to
some interesting rectifications- 1t is
known that all these tombs were pro-
famed and their contents scattered to
the winds in December, 1898, by the
maniacs of the revolution. While the
workmen were at their luncheon q
hosier from a neighboring street, a
certain Cheval. slipped into the church.
opened Richelieu's coffin, which the
others were not yet done with, and
made off with its whole upper part,
containing the head. He showed it to
one of the prescribed priests, the Able
Armez. whose hiding place he knew,
and who at once recognized the we'll
known face of the contemporary paint
ings. When the Terror was over and
order was partly restored Cheval feared
that he might be prosecuted with the
rest, and SO got rid of his dangerous
treasure by handing it over to the
able. The latter deposited it with his
brother, who was mayor of a town in
one of the northern provinces. The
son of the mayor became a deputy
under Louis Philippe and brought the
head with him to Paris. Here it was
shown privately to some of his friends.
among whom was Victor Cousins, the
philosopher and historian of RICHIE
lieu's time.
At last, in 1866. the Armez family
asked to restore to head to the tomb in
the Sorbonne. which was repaired to
receive it NJ. Victor Duruy, minister
of public instruction, and Archbishop
Darboy declared themselves satisfied
with the evidence furnished. and the
sculpture was made publicly. It is
this head which was again exposed to
view the other day in the presence
of NJ. Hanotaux, the greatest historian
of the cardinal, and, contrary to what
was first said. of the princess of
Monaco, formerly wife of the late
duke of Richelieu, and representing
her son, the present duke. NJ Hano-
faux was able to dissipate some of the
few doubts which remained as to the
penuineness of the relic The fact of
the cutting off of the beard. which
noticed, could scarcely have been inn
agined by an impostor (besides, there
has never been any motive for willful
deceit). But NJ. Hanotaux has also
had the contemporary bust by Warrin.

curately measuring his subjects, COM

GOOD ROADS EDUCATION.

Slowly But Surely Light Is Breaking In
City and Country.
After all that has been written and
said concerning the material required
for the construction of good roads, the
thing that is really most needed is a
good and widely diffused quality of
brains.
Clay, sand, gravel, asphalt and granite
do not make good roads until mixed
with a proper amount of gray brain
matter. 1t is this last-named ingredi-
ent that the country most sadly lacks.
There are many signs of better things
in the making of roads. The whole
people are just now going to school for
the purpose of learning how to make a
good road. Most of them are yet in the
primary grades, but there is likely to
be time for graduating by and by
when road makers have learned all
about materials and grades and drain
age and other important branches of
the subject of good roads.
When the people really get to think
ing on this matter they will promptly
do away with those splendidly designed
machines for destroying roads, namely,
heavily-loaded, narrow-tired vehicles.
This is only one of many instances in
which brain matter will enter into the
building and keeping of good roads.
Secretary Morton has called good
roads convention to meet at Atlanta
while the exposition is in progress.
This should prove a good step in the
campaign of education. Many of the
county fairs are this year holding a
good roads" day, which proves that
the farmers are taking up this question.
which is of more vital interest to them
than to any other class.
All in all the friends of good roads
which means the whole people-have
every reason TO confidently expect
marked improvement in the character
of the public highways.-Good Roads.

GLOVES FOR FALL WEAR.

Fashions.

stylish Hand Ware for Followers of the
Fashions.
The makers of mems gloves recog-
nizing the disposition of the new wom-
an to lay claim to all the masculine
belongings she can appropriate, are
manufacturing gloves in women's
sizes and in mems styles. They are
of heavy tan or red dogskin, with one
OR at most two buttons. More gen.
orally clasps are used, and the new
woman thereby escapes one of her
hated domestic duties-that of sewing
on buttons There is no doubt that
these gloves wear better and are better
made than the majority of thin kid
ones hastily put together for woman's
wear. But they are far from shapely.
No street glove with any claim to
distinction is fastened nowadays with
the small pearl button once in form.
The smallest one allowable is we'll
cut pearl or bone one approaching an
old-fashioned three-cent piece in size.
They range from this to sizes little
larger than a dime. They are colored
to match the kid to n certain degree.
The stitching on short gloves is
quite heavy. but is not in the broad
lines fashionable short time ago. It
is generally of the same color as the
gloves, except when they are very
light. White and lemon-colored glazed
kid gloves have black stitching, but
the red tan and gray ones are stitched
in their own colors.
The day of the glazed kid glove for
dress occasions seems about over. The
soft, dull suedes are once more popu-
lar and glazed kid is regarded as a
poor substitute for the heavy dogskin
gloves dear to the tailor-made girl

We are told. the sense of sight, and

Taking first the sense of sight much

which the compound eye of insects
produces upon the brain or upon the
nerve centers. Most insects which un-

own. In the image state the great ma
joritv of insects have their simple eyes
in addition to the compound eyes.
So far as experiments have gone,
they show that insects have a keen
color sense, though here again their
sensations of color differ from those
produced upon us The sense of touch
is supposed to reside chiefly in the
antennse, or feelers, though it re-
quiries but the simplest observation
to show that with soft-bodied insects
the sense of smell is more acute than
in the antenn@. in most insects. 1t is,
however. evidently more specialized in
the maxillary and labial palpi and in
the tongue than in the antenne in
most insects. Very little can be posi-
lively proved, as to the sense of taste
of insects; but that insects possess the
power OF smell is matter of common
observation, and has been experiment

has led many people to believe

innumerable glands and special
organs for secreting odors furnish
the strongest indirect proof of the
same fact. In regard to the sense of
hearing. the most casual experimental
ton will show that most insects, while
keenly alive to the slightest move
ments or vibrations, are for the most
part deaf to the sounds which affect
MS. That they have a sense of sound
is equally certain. but its range is very
different from ours.
The fact that SO many insects have
the power of producing sounds that are
even audible to us is the best evidence
that they possess audible organs. In
the matter of special senses, which it
is difficult for us to comprehend, that
of direction is most marked, and many
furnish striking instances of the man
ner in which this sense is developed
