ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

The soil for the orchard cannot be too
rich.
The object in pruning the grape is to
lessen the quantity Of fruit and improve
its quality.
To prevent premature falling off of
the fruit keep the tree healthy and free
from insect pests.
There is no advantage in planting
tender vegetables until after all dan
ger Of frost Is past.
If there is u choice take plants of u
short stocky growth rather than such
as have luxurant branches.
A moderate pruning in the spring
will cause the fruit to fill less than on
unpruned overburdened trees.
An apple tree may fail to bear be-
cause overbearing the previous year
has overexhausted the vitality.
Whether the vines run horizontally
or upright, they should be trained as
near as possible in straight lines.
Now is good time to set out rasp-
berries and blackberries. Get the work
done before the plants start to grow.
Plant for succession in the garden rs
well as in the orchard. 1t is an item to
have good supply of fruits and vege-
tables all the season.-St. Louis Re-

THE TAX THAT COUNTS.

1000, OOo, 900 tons of freight. Every year
the amount increases. Every pound OF
this freight is carted and carried over
our roads and streets before it gets to
the railroads; millions of tons are
hauled in wagons and sold in the coun-
try towns and consumed by the local
buyer. Here is the farmers end of it;
hay. $4,000, 900 tons-think of hauling
$4,000, 900 loads of hay TO market on
roads like that; 00,000,000 tons of
cereals; 100000 tons OF potatoes; p
100000 tons of cotton; total, 100000
tons, not counting the mud on the
wagon wheels.
"The road and the wagon are the twin
handmaidens of agriculture that at
tend the farmer on every journey to
market and they are forever at odds
with each other. II the man who sold
that wagon to the farmer had tried to
sell that road TO him, homicide would
have become virtue; 152 100000 tons OF
produce; S5OO,00O,OOO paid for farm i'm
Elements and machinery to harvest 1t
with; $1,000 100000 invested In farm
horses and mules to drag II TO market.
Think Of it! Think of being director
in n corporation with that amount of
business on hund, with countless mil
lions of paid-up capital invested. and
think of doing business in n mortar
bed! Think of waiting for the mud to
dry up. Sixteen million horses and
mules idle in the stables; 100000 a
day for horse feed; s2s.o0O,O 900 week.
Think OF the loss of time and labor, the
dwarfed and shrunken values of our
farms. of the slack supply and good
prices, when the roads are impossible.
Think of the procession of farmers that
rush to town and glut the market in
the first days of dry weather, and think
oithe paltry prices they get when every
body is trying to sell to an overstocked
market"

Habits of the Nile Crocodile worshipss
as = God.

Habits of the Nile Crocodilo-w orshiped
a. God.
AS a songster the crocodile Is not
to be compared to the bulbul, but he
can, without any exertion, hold his own
latter he bellows. but, unlike him, he
bellows at night, whereas the bull on.y
bellows during the day, except when he
is badly scared. With these exceptions
there is nothing in common between
the crocodile and either the bulbul or
the bull. There Is no definite informa-
ton to be obtained regarding the ex-
act lines upon which the first crocodile
was built. 1t is maintained by those
who have devoted lifetime to study
of his interior that the traces of dia-
phragm which are to be found in him
to-day show that his organization must
have at one time borne some resem.
blance to that of warm-blooded ami
mails.
There is little in the animal kingdom
that can look so dead and be so much
alive as crocodile. The number Of
unsuspecting persons who have mis-
taken him for log and have failed to
discover their mistake until it was too
late to be of any benefit to them will
never be known. In ancient times,
several years prior to the British occu-
patton of Egypt, some of the people OF
that country worshiped the crocodile as
a god, there being nothing else like
him. They fed him on dainties and
logged him out with jewels. In other
parts of Egypt, however, the natives
looked upon him as a devil. Having
no firearms, they did not fill him with
lead, but they managed to immediate
him successfully with such weapons as
were fashionable at the time.
The crocodile is not so numerous In
the Nile as he was in the days of the
Rameses family; in fact, he rather
shuns the river now below the second
cataract on account Of the annoyances
inseparable from tourist traffic. 1t
seems impossible for tourist to see Il
crocodile without trying to plug him
with revalver, and to a reptile that is
fond of a quiet life this sort of thing is
simply insufferable. He will not me-
lest a man unless he can take him at Il
disadvantage, and so long as man does
not, unthinkingly, step on him, the
crocodile will go his way and calmly
await his opportunity.
His methods of capturing large game
are plural as we'll as singular. Some
| times he will lie on river bank, partly
covered with sand or mud, until all
| absent-minded native wanders within
reach. Having grabbed his prey he
will waddle into the water and there
drown the struggler. He will then
drag his victim ashore and bury him in
sand or mud and wait for days before he
| gorges himself.
His favorite plan of providing food
for himself in the water is to depress
his head and tail and float withthe cur
rent. While performing this act he
looks like an old, blackened log

Greek Chariot Races.

The chariot races, like those Of the
Roman circus. initiated from the
Greek, were of striking interest. There
was scarcely any honor of the games
more glorious than the charioteer's
victory, especially II the owner drove
his own horses. The danger to life
and limb undergone by the charioteer
was not less than that risked by the
athlete in boxing with the cestus, or in
the pancratium. The vivid chapter in
"Ben Hur" depicting the chances and
perils of chariot race essentially the
same as that of the Olympic games
gives an excellent notion of such con-
test.-G. T. Ferris, in st. Nicholas.

L,nseed Cake In the Dairy.

AS milk and butter producer,
ground linseed cake has no equal. 1t
not only increases the flow of milk, but
adds greatly to it's richness in cream.
With a cow accustomed to corn meal,
bran, shorts and the like, the increase
will bstfrom one to two quarts at each
milking, within "a hours after begin
ming with the ground linsecd cake. A
COW, to be able to give full flow Of
milk, must have food richer In nitrogen
than would be required for any other
animal, since milk itself is composed
largely of albuminoids, and this can
only be supplied from food containing
this substance. The first demand of n
COW upon the nitrogen of food is to sup
ply waste of tissue, and only the sur
plus will go to milk.-Coleman's Rural

Great Road Convention to BE Held at
Galveston, May s2.
There is one especially encouraging
feature of the goodroads movement.
II Is the activity in that direction in
regions remote from centers Of popula-
ton.
A convention of delegates represent
ing the great state of Texas is to be
beld in Galveston, beginning on May
%. In Arkansas a state convention was
held at Little Rock in February, in
which resolution was adopted rec
ommending a constitutional amend
ment empowering county authorities
to levy special tax for carrying on
work of general highway improve
ment Similar steps have been taken
III several other states of the south and
west.
Another encouraging feature of the
movement is n general disposition to
profit by the experience of other coun-
tries-notably of France, which has
perhaps the finest wagon-roads Of any
country. Good roads are more easily
made and kept in order there than in
most countries, because of the scarcity
OF forest areas, which conserve moisture
and render somewhat more difficult the
Keeping of highways in repair. But IL
is possible and well worth the while
10 have good roads and still preserve
the desired areas of natural forest. The
time is not distant when the neglect OF
either of these important interests will
be matter of general public regret,
and will be viewed as a public misfor-
tune.-Youth's Companion.
