FENCE LITTER.

larly If it be stake and wire fence as
shown in the cut. This shows the
stakes wired together instead of the
old-fashioned wooden cap with holes
bored in it to bind the stakes together.
Also there is no need of driving the
stakes into the ground as was former
" done, the wires holding all firmly
together. enough so as to prevent
blowing down. 1t will be noticed that
the stake is cut off square at each end.
It was formerly the custom to sharpen
the lower end and drive it into the
ground, but this soon rots and con-
stantly lifts and iheaves with the frost.
On sandy soil the stakes might be
driven, but on our clay soils it is not
the thing.
The litter is made by taking piece
of 3x4 for q base and mailing the two
standards to it. The base should be
about 1s inches long and the standard
inch thick, inches wide and AZ
inches long. Notches are cut in either
side Of them SO as to make it reversi-
bic. Seven half-inch pins are put
through for the lever to work on.
The rest of the construction is shown
by the cut without further description.

Rubber Seed OIL.

A suggestion of new source Of In
come from the india ru bier tree is con-
tanned in a pamphlet by Senior da Cum
ha, recently published by the state
government of Para. According to
this author it is probable that before
many years elapse an important trade
will be developed in the seeds of the
rubber tree, which are very abundant
and yield an important quantity of oil,
which is said to compare iavorably
with linseed oil. Up. to the present
time this oil has been extracted only
In small quantities; but with the more
systematic regulation of the rubber in.
dustry which the author predicts it IS
expected that the rubber tree seed will
be included among the valuable re-
sources OF the country. IT it is, In
deed, true that such oil can be made
from the seeds of the rubber tree. and
one that is similar to linseed oil, it
may be that from this will be produced
the ideal rubber substitute. It is :
well-known fact that the nearest app
proaches to substitute for india rub.
Der have been made from inseed and
kindred oils, and perhaps the oil Of the
rubber seeds will be exactly what the
trade has SO long been looking for.-

remedy is the planting Of a few rows Of

The New Seminar4.


The exercises Incident to the dediea-
ton Of the new Theological Seminary
OF ST. Paul were inaugurated with the
celebration of high pontifical mass by
Mgr. SatoH in the seminary chapel,
which was crowded with clergy of the
archdiocese and representative Cath
Ole churchmen from different parts Of
the country.
The institution is personal tribute
to Arch bishop Ireland, from James j.
Hill, president of the Great Northern
railroad. He contributed every dollar
OF the cost Of the construction lover
$500, 00O), personally planned the build
ings and superintendent their construc-
ton. Henceforth, this seminary will
be the center of Catholicism in the
Northwest. It is situated on the banks
of the Mississippi river, and the new
buildings are admirably adapted to the
work of instruction. Ten teachers will
be employed, and they are among the
best educated men in the church. An
extensive library of theological works
has been gathered, which has COM
pleted the equipments Of the buildings.
In addition to the studies proper to the
ministry, and which extend over six
years, the curriculum will comprise
higher course in science, literature and
political economy. The following
chairs are endowed: Biology and phys
Illogical psychology, chemistry and
natural philosophy, logic and meta
physics. apologetics, ethics, dogmatic
theology, moral theology, sacred script
ure, ecclesiastical history. Besides
these main studies, canon law, political
economy, church music and the Ian
guages, including Greek and Hebrew,
will receive considerable attention.

Wrong Diagnosis Leads to . Doctors
Success.
There IL q doctor now prominent in
Chicago medical circles and enjoying
the rewards of q large practice who
owes his advancement to his having in
his earlier days made bad blunder in
tho diagnosis of q case. and, what is
odder still, the doctor admits the fact.
1t happened in this way: Fifteen
vearsago this doctor was struggling to
make q living in small village in
North Carolina. Riding over the hills
ono day to visit a patient, poorer even
than himself. he met man on mule
back who had one Of his feet wrapped
up in big lot of coarse bagging, max
Ing IN enormous bundle. The i'm
mense size of the wrapping attracted
the Doctors attention and he entered
into conversation with tlassnfferer.
you seem to have bad foot,
stranger I'm physician. Let me
have look at it"
The stranger dismounted, and I'M
rolling the cloth displayed a foot and
ankle terribly swollen and inflamed.
The doctor inspected it carefully, and
then with a grave face said:
~ don't want to alarm you, stranger,
but you have an aggravated case Of
erysipelas. and unless you get prompt
relief it may result fatally
"Eriesiplas be DANCED. That comes
from running my foot in bees nest.
! thought you said you was doctor. !"
Tho doctor rode on abashed and
crestfallen. 1t would never do to re-
main there to be the victim Of derisive
sarcasm, as the bee-sting man was sure
to spread the news Of the incident far
and wide, SO that night the doctor
packed his traps and took train for
the north. He came to Chicago, and
has been singularly successful, owing
probably, as he laughingly says, to the
fact that bee stings are practically un-
known here. Chicago Tribune.

THIS CORN is KING.

Samples of corn of giant species
have been obtained from Peru by the
department OF agriculture. The grains
are four times the size of those Of or
binary maize, and Secretary Morton be-
ieves that the plant may be turned to
most valuable account in this country.
It is very prolific and bears ears Of.
huge dimensions. The species is quite
distinct from any known IN North
America, and the name 'szea amylacean
has been given to it.
The sgrains are extraordinarily
starchy, even for. corn; hence the name
'amylacea." Already ten distinct vac
rieties Of the species have been ascer-
tanned. One Of them would probably
be excellent for canning, inasmuch as
1t contains an unusual percentage Of
sugar. It has, been named Yea amyl-l
