October 81 will be Flag Day for all
those who believ- in the money Of The
Constitution and mold the fundamental
laws Of our country dear.
The date has bsen set. October 81. by
the Chairman Of the National Democrat
ic Committee.
On that day let every believer in the
Money Of tina Constitution display the
American flag wherever and whenever
Ii is possible.
The stars and Stripes is the emblem
Of national honor. as Chairman Jones
SAYS. and il is too sacred to be prosd-
tu.ed 20 partisan purposes, as Mark
Hanns's henchmen have attempted 20
do in the present campaign.
Blu, This is not a partisan political bat
lie. It is a fight such as that which
occurred one hundred and twenty years
ago. when the independence Of the
American people was at stake.
The glorious Stars and Stripes were
born then
This is another fight Of the same kind.
England said if she could no, whip us
with powder and sho, she would with

it was a question. whether the American
people should remain subjects to the
British crown; in 1896 +, is a question

long, terminating in fine spray noz-

rows of potatoes, the mau following
and holding a nozzle in each hand above
the row, on either side. When turning
at the end of row, the hose may be
laid across the barrel to stop the flow.
The pressure of the liquid in the bar
rel, if well elevated, is sufficient to pro-
duce heavy flow, and the jolting of the

SHE WAS SHY ONE TURK.

Protest of m Audience Against Bern.
hardt's Loss Of Servant.
Sarah Bernhardt was once playing at
Marseilles in q spectacular play in
which she made her entree accom-
panied by six Turkish slaves. A line
on the programme announced that
these six Turks would accompany
Nine. Bernhardt, but when the time
came for them to go on one Of the
youngsters had disappeared. Sarah
mustered the five in order, says the
New York Evening Sun, and made her
entrance with grand flourish. The
house was crowded, but not handicap
greeted her as she appeared. Then a
still, small voice in the gallery MUIR
INJURED something in an indignant tone.
Fifty voices Immediately took up the
strain, and in ten seconds more the
whole house was shouting the same
phrase. Bernhardt strained every
nerve to catch what they were com
planning about She knew the phrase
began with ''Manque," but the rest of
it was lost in the general hubbub.
For full minute the tEmult continued.
Then Sarah, muttering things below
her breath, rushed like fury down to
the footlights. In the front row the
actress had spotted one man who was
not taking part, in the huAabaloo.
Pointing at him, the actress exclaimed,
sternly: "You seem to be the only sensi-
BILE person in this house. Tell me what
on earth they are kicking up this row
for?' The man rose. bowed to the
actress. and remarked, in very bad
American-French: Madam, you are
shy one Turk"

Skim Cheese Regulation.

Skim cheese must be taken care OF
next. It is legitimate dairy product,
yet should be obliged to take its proper
classified place. A national law should
be passed requiring the branding OF
every pound made. Doubtless many
dealers abandoning filled cheese under
the present wholesome law will turn
their attention to skins. No fault can
be found if his trade stands on it's own
bottom at home and abroad. But our
great dairy interests, also the con-
sumers' welfare, will not be adequate.

RINGING OF TREES.
Those Intended to Be Cut Tor T1mbo
Should BE So Treated.

Those Intended to BE Cut for Timber
Should BE So Treated.
Architects will remember that the
old books on building advise that the
trees intended to be cut for timber
should have ring of bark cut around
the trunk in the latter part of the winter
preceding the autumn season in which
they are to be felled. This advice seems
to have been founded on experience,
but so far as we know it is never fol-
lowed in modern times. Very recently,
however, NJ. Mer, of the great forest
school Of Nancy, in answering an in.
quiry as to the best means for preserv-
ing wooden telegraph poles from the
ravages of insects, explains the effect
of ringing" growing trees in very
interesting manner.
According to NJ. Mer, tree intended
to be used for telegraph pole should
be cut in the autumn, and during the
preceding winter should have ring cut
out of the bark, down to the wood, near
the upper part of tine trunk. If this is
done the ascent Of the sap in the spring
is prevented, as it is we'll known that the
sap circulates just under the bark
The tree nevertheless grows, consum-
ing as nutriment the starch grains laid
up in the sapwood. When the seasons
growth is over, the starch in the sap
wood is gone; but, as fresh sap has not
been allowed to circulate, no new starch
has been deposited in its place to supply
the next seasons growth, and when the
tree is felled it's tissues ontain no
starch, and consequently no food for
the insects, which feed upon wood, and
which, according to M. Mer, only eat
the wood for the starch which they find
in it. To inject wood with sulphate Of
copper, as is often done, NJ. Mer says
helps to complete it's protection. but
only on condition that the starch is
first removed as he suggests.-Ameri-

Rules for Tree Planting.

The following rules for tree plant
ing are always in order: The soil should
be we'll firmed about the roots of trees;
the roots Strengthened out in approxi-
mately their natural position; the hole
should be large and roomy; the earth
fine and dry enough to crumble; the
tree to be set little deeper in the soil
than it stood in the nursery row; the
roots of the tree must not DO long ua-
covered, and every care must be taken to
get the tree in the natural environment
as quickly as possible.

A TYPICAL COUNTRY ROAD.

side will result. If possible place small
culverts below the surface, and cover
with earth, as they will be the less sub
ject to wear and will not Interfere with
the smooth surface of the road. Make
culverts permanent. Avoid the use of
perishable material. See that proper
outlets are made for them and keep free
Water which is allowed to stand in
them in frosty weather will destroy the
best material.
q The surface of the road should be
kept smooth and free from ruts. Where
gravel or ether metal is to be applied it
is best to olga trench for its.reception,
otherwise the crown will be too high.
Gravel is intended to perform the
double service of roof to shed the
water and floor to resist the wear of
traffic and to lessen the amount of trac-
ton required. "A 40 per cent. greater
load can be drawn by team over a
smooth gravel road in IN equally good
state of repair. All the work should lie
done on a uniform plan in systematic
and permanent manner, with view to
its extension on the same plan in SUBJ
sequent years; this in a short time will
secure q perfect system of finished
roads. ,'e
Modern road machinery, properly
operated, is economical. /, The grader
and roller are Indispensable. The
grader performs the work quicker,
easier, cheaper and more perfectly
than can be expected from hand labor.
The roller compacts the loose material,
unites the different PARTICLES so as to
better resist the load, prevents displace-
ment which forms ruts, and reduces to
minimum resistance to traffic. !
