Planted by Wales.

Comparatively few people know that
there is tree in Central park planted
by the Prince of Wales on his visit TO
this country just before the war. 1t
stands on the grass plot west of the
Mall, between that and the middle
drive, down toward the marble arch.
The tree has never been a credit to the
royal gardener, and in the words of the
park authorities, if you wish to find it,
"Look for sickly looking elm, and
when you see it you will know it is the
one the Prince of Wales planted. 1t

planted by the Prince of Wales at
Mount Vernon, where, in an Enclosed

the tree planted by the Prince Of

know say that illustrious persons who
plant trees for the benefit of posterity
and to insure a green monument to
their own memories do not always know
what they are about. The ID trees
planted by Alexander Hamilton were
planted in space not much more than
large enough for one tree to grow in

Things That Tighten Life For Hunters lAs
the Woods on Dreary Days.
There is kind of man who never
lacks camping companions. He may be
rich or poor, big or little. He may be
so weak as to be hardly able to carry
his rifle and never able TO bring stick
Of wood for the campfire. He is wanted,
nevertheless. The campers call him the
jovial man, the one who never sulks. but
always smiles. He is cheerful when the
clouds weep and the campers are dismal.
He laughs when he misses easy shots.
He grins when the smoke gets into his
eyes and says that the nubs and sticks
in the camp bed are good, because they
give the sleeper plenty of exercise.
The cheerful man is especially well
liked i'll a camp where the hunters have
had bad run Of luck. If week passes
and the woods have been so dry that tho
deer or the turkeys couldn't be APP
preached, then the cheerful man, as he
fries pork or bacon for supper, laughs
and says that any way it's good thing
for the game.
When the weather is gloomy and ev-
cry one has the blues, it is the cheerful
man who gets out and gathers a big
heap of wood, if he can, or, if he can't,
he has somebody else do it, and when
night comes a big campfire is started
that cheers everybody up to the story
telling point, which point indicates
cheerfulness.
Even small boys are welcome in q
veterans camp when the place is
gloomy. Small boys make things inter-
esting. There are guns to drag around
and owners to say things. There is
food supply to pick at, and fire to med
die with, pipes to break and tin dishes
TO rattle. 1t doesn't take much to cheer
up sad camp, if only the right visitor
comes along. The arrival of smiling
woman from another camp, one day
when the rain poured, did that once up
on Moose river. She had arifie over her
shoulder and three dripping cartridges
in her hand. Her hunting suit was drip
ping wet, and her once curly bangs
hung down over her eyes Every COM

feet, and great heap of green birch

Plants That Spread Quickly.

The dandelion is an old world flower,
not native in America, save far to the
north and OH some of the highest Of
our western mountains. But somehow
it was brought here, perhaps from Eng
land, in old colonial times. Now we see
its golden heads and feathery balls at
every grassy roadside, the "clocks" the
boys and girls blow to tell the hour. A
few years ago farmers in the northwest
found new weed, vile, priokly weed,
In their wheatfields. In very short
time this weed, the Russian thistle, has
spread over wide acres of the best farm
land in that part of the country and has
done great injury to the crops.
How do these plants spread 80 fast
and SO far9 They are not carried about
and planted. No one would be so fool
ish as to SOW Russian thistles. The
mother plant must have ways of her
own for sending her offspring abroad in
to the world. Plants propagate them
selves in two ways, from seed or from
buds. Sometimes these buds are borne
on slender runners. A strawberry plant
after 1t has blossomed, begins to send
out such runners, with buds, unfolding
tufts OF leaves, along them. These tufts
are at first connected with the parent
plant, but later the runners between
break away, and each tuft becomes a
new plant. Many grasses, like Bermuda
grass and the troublesome quick or couch
grass, have creeping stems, each joint
sending out bunch of roots below and
bud on the upper side If you try to hoe
up such grasses, you only make matters
worse. for each joint when cut off is
ready to form an independent plant
such grasses spread very fast and soon
take possession of the land they get
into. -Thomas II. Kearney, Jr., in st.
Nicholas.
