WHEAT AT NEW YORK.
New York, Nov. 6.-The wheat market
was Unexpectedly strong today. English
cables this morning started a stampede
of the shorts, which was renewed at in
tervals all day. The December option
opened LAC higher and gained &c more
before the close. The speculation eclips-
ed anything seen in over week. Sales
embraced 1856, 900 bushels, At the high
est point of the session December was
within 1-2c Of the top notch of yester-
day. The strong cable news was sup
plemented by foreign buying Of both fu-
ture and cash property, rumors of de-
creased Russian offerings and additional
Australian buying at San Francisco. Do
nestle news was equally bullish. Spring
wheat receipts today We're only half as
large as year ago and are expected to
drop off still further. The entire in
terror movement of both spring and win
ter wheat so far this week is nearly two
million bushels less than last week. In
addiuon to this ,nillers are reported to
so have depleted their stocks of winter
wheat that they have been compelled 10
buy heavily at Chicago an6 st. Louis.
Cash wheat at both these points was re-
ported to have attained decided premI-
um over December. In the late after
noon. trading was active and excited as
prices moved upward in quarter and half
cents bounds, and the lose was very ner-
vous az little under the top. Decent

as they attain full bloom they take on
delicate pink and in the process of chang
ing assume various shades and present
variegated appearance. Thus the tree
yields flowers ranging from a deep red
TO an almost white.
The tree is so profuse a bloomer that
the cutting from iG of few bushels of
roses m axes no perceptible change in it's
appearance.
Mrs. Moore does not know the name
of the rose which she has raised with
such marked success, nor did she use
any particular plan ia growing or train
ing it. She simply let it alone and
nature did the rest.
The above may be largs ''rose tree"
for people at ST. Louis but it is not hard
to find a Cherokee rose bush in this
state twice as large as the above. We
have seen in south Florida an Agripplna
bush that grew to be twelve feet high
and had spread of thirty feet without
any training.

not at all pleasing. AT one time row of
trees mile long was put out alternately
oak, magnolia and wild orange. 1t was
the stragliest looking row of shade trees
we ever saw. The oaks outgrew the 9th
ers and in course of time the contrast
was so bad that one by one the other
trees were taken out and replaced with
oaks. There is nothing more pleasing
to the eye than an unbroken row of
shade trees, whether it be oaks, palmet-
tos or magnolias. or other trees The
man, who laid out the grounds for the
Governor General of Cuba, knew this
when he had planted a row of Royal
Palms on each side of drive. Mr.. Flag
Ter knew this when he had built walk
half mile long lined on each side with
palmetto trees, and those of our town
who planted whole rows Of oaks now see
the wisdom Of their work. Plant plenty
of shade trees but let "blrds of feather
flock together. ED.

Wonderful Rose Tree.

The mammoth rose tree in the rear OF
Mrs. Susan V. Moore's home, $500 Bart
mer avenue, is a thing of beauty and a
10Y for the few weeks it is in bloom,
says the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Rose bushes are common but when
they attain the enormous proportions OF
this one they can only be designated as
trees, and such sights are rarely seen.
This rose tree is of uncertain age.
When Mrs. Moore acquired possession
of the property five years ago there was
in the rear of the lot diminutive and
insignificant rose bush. 1t did not take
up much room and she permitted it to
remain. It's growth was marvellous, and
by fall it had reached very respectable
size.
The following spring it bloomed, and
was mass of small but perfect roses.
The bush kept on growing, and Mrs.
Moore became interested in it and was
proud of her find. The growth has con-
tinued ever since and now the tree
would attract attention anywhere.
The trunk is more than four inches in
diameter and the branches are trained
along the fence on the west side of the
lot for distance of more than forty feet.
The tree has no apparent desire to grow
straight up, but runs along and supports
itself against the fence, so that a person
of ordinary height may easily pluck the
flowers from the highest branches.
The only objection to the tree is that
it is not constant bloomer. Usually in
June it blossoms out, but because of the
forward season this year put out early.
1t would be hard tc imagine more
beautiful sight. The entire length of
the tree is one solid mass of roses.
Their fragrance may be detected
block.
The roses are not large-about two
inches in diameter. When they first be-
gin to open they are deep rich red, but

Space for Flowers.

If the yard is large enough, space
should certainly be devoted to flowers,
says the Philadelphia Press. Nothing
gives such a touch of beauty to even the
humble home as the growing flowers
which brighten the dizziness of bricks
and back walls. If the yard is too small
for planting, shelves run along the sides
of the fence can hold boxes of growing
plants which give sort of garden effect
to the yard. Soapboxes will serve nicely
this purpose, and growing plants are SO
cheap now in the market that every
woman can have her little bit of flower
garden, if she will.
Whatever the circumstances of the
housekeeper, there is no reason why her
back yard should not be as clean and in
Yiting as any other part of the house,

Shade Trees.


ida with it's clear deep blue water lakes
that originally gave it the name Of Blue
Pond. One of the first works of it's set
tiers was to form a tree planting asso-
of water oaks, an evergreen tree, along
its streets and avenues, and which are
now grown into fine outrageous shade
trees, that make the village not inaptly
called the Forest City," and, with it's
natural advantages, make it one Of the
most delightful spots for winter or
to distinguish it from all other Florida
villages as winter resort and have led
the proprietor of the Cloudlald Sum-
mer Resort to select it as the uture win
ter home in hotel or cottage of his sum-
mer guests. The forethought Of the
early settlers in thus aiding nature to
make it one of the most beautiful and
attractive spots in all the southland has
been we'll rewarded, and gives pleasing
contrast to the hundreds of neglected
villages that might have been beautiful
with the same forethought of their
founders; but which now have cheer
less and dreary aspect, uninviting to the
passer by, or for winter homes.
''Interlachen is a pattern for other
villages who would make their towns
attractive, and the advice of the Rural
ist to all occupants of town or village
lot is to plant tree. 1t will grow while
you sleep. 1t will furnish shade for
yourself or your children. 1t will en-
nance the value of your property. It
will attract the eye Of the tourist and
encourage him to make a home here. 1t
will destroy the appearance of barren
ness and in a measure supply the lack
of green grass SO missed by the stranger.
"The water oak should be transplanted
when in a dormant state, and is most
safely removed in December or January.
1t would facilitate its growth when
transplanted to the village plat, if dur
it's forest home and the roots severed
foot or more from its trunk and the
severed parts cut smoothly with sharp
knife, and again covered with soil. Then
when removed in the winter mass of
fine rootlets would be ready to draw
moisture, and the tree would make
no MD rprowtb from tho
"The oaks alternated with an occa-
sional palmetto would also give pleas
ant relief to the eye. The palmetto
should be transplanted as early as De-
cember and all f1brous roots removed to
within an inch or two Of the trunk root,
and planted six to twelve inches deeper
than it stood in the field with a quantity
of muck in the hole where planted.
Magnolias should also find place about
the homes of the Florida resident. 1t is
a difficult tree to make live and had bet
ter be procured of the nurseryman and
planted when small.
Homes and villages may be made
beautiful by little labor and fore
thought and it should be the summers
thought to prepare for individual or as
sociated tree planting the coming win
