Winter Protection-Winter protec-
ton is important. Trees are often pro-
nounced tender which with a little
more care would merit a different YER
dict. As an animal needs q little extra
bedding in very cold weather. so q
tree-particularly a young tree whe,
the roots are near the surface-needs
a mulch of some sort to protect it.
For this purpose nothing is better than
well-rotted barnyard manure. applied
to a dephth of four or five inches and
spread 50 as to cover an area Of three
or four feet ON each side Of the tree.
Such an application serves the double
purpose Of protection and food.

Climatic Influence Of Forests.
Elisee Reclus, the eminent French
geographer, in his work. La Terre. !"
treats Of the climatic influence of for
ests as follows:
Zone may say in general terms that
forests are similar to the sea in their
influence. reducing the natural differ
ences of temperature in the different
seasons, while the destruction of for
ests increases the difference between
the extreme heat and the extreme cold,
imparts greater violence to atm0s-
pheric currents and to torrential rains
and a protracted violence to drouths.
Marsh fevers. even. and other epidemic
diseases have often made an Eruption

screens of protecting trees have fallen

Ponds, one cannot doubt for a moment
that the clearing away Of the woods
has had the effect Of disturbing its reg

laced branches of the trees allow to

the running waters increase below.
The full rivers flowing become changed

woman goes down to the sea in ships
she Is apt to secrete about her p0-

to heat the tongs with which she COM
municates those artless undulations

uously with contraband fusel, strikes

something happens. not in Ilium, that is
quite prosaic and concerning US all.
There doesn't seem any help for it,

The only way to stop her that appears
to have suggested itself to anybody is
that stewardesses should be straighta-

Liuen Capes.

ASueD Cope0s
The momentary fancy for linen cape
collars seems to be waning. They are
not, as a rule, specially becoming and
are only liked as novelty. Some of
the latest costumes have sleeves per-
fectly straight from shoulders to wrists,
being followed out under the arms and
at the inside Of the cuffs to shape them.
These, however, are not becoming or
very comfortable, and are not liked as
we'll as those with puffs and the regu-
lar leg-o-mutton shape. The princesse
dress is enjoying its usual bit of at
tention. Almost every season a few
handsome costumes of this sort are
brought out, and as they are very be-
coming to some figures. there is al
ways a demand for them.

Agricultural depression has its capri
cious sides in France: the greater the
fall in the price Of wheat, The greater
the acreage under the crop. and the
less the yield, says q correspondent to
the Michigan Farmer. Good corn. on
appropriate land. only will produce
many bushels Of wheat, and that Is one
Of the most feasible plans to combat
low prices. For the moment. the trend
Of French farmers Is a new departure
to raise mutton. The demand Of the
latter is very great and constant, and
neighboring nations are put under con-
tribution for sheep that France could as
well produce. 1t is day dream to ex-
pect to be able to compete with Aus
tralia in wool. but she and Argentine
can be fought over the supply Of legs
of mutton and Of outlets. Save pork
and ham, the French dislike salt-meat:
they are equally averse to timed meat,
and the only way they like the boiled
down preparation Is in the form Of ex-
tract, to make soup. Frozen mutton
would meet with sale were foreign
shippers to provide centers for its dis
tribution, and prevail on the custom
authorities not to cut up and disfgure
the carcasses as il they contained snug
gled cigars or TASKS of c0gnac.
