For . TraintoG school.

j. h Doran, of the Diamond Gar
ment Cutter school, was q visitor in
Rock Island today. MIR. Doran was
here looking over the field with a
view to establishing the training de-
partnent Of the system here. One
school is already established at
Knoxville, Tenn, and another will
be located in this section. Mr.. Do
ran asks no bonus or ANYTHING O.
that sind. He simply wants the
moral encouragement OF the people.
His project will require well located
school rooms to accommodate 100 to
700 pupils, which he will expect TO
rent on reasonable terms; also il will
be eNpessed that moderate rates NAV
be had for accommodation for
scholars, etc. Local schools for
training are established in different
cities, but the idea is to train the in
strnctors of the schools in Rock Isl.
and. Mr.. Doran is now at Mon.

DtNehtfol Entertainment at the College
Last Evening.

Last Evening.
The Evolutionary recital given by
Miss Sophia Swanstrcm, OF Angus
tana college, at the college chapel
last evening, proved treat which
was enjoyed by large and distin-
guished audience.
Prof. F. z. Peterson opened with q
piano solo, after which Miss Swans
from read David's 9Th psalm. The
third number was a violin solo nv
Prof. Franz Zedeler, the eminent vio-
linist. This artist has taken the
audience By storm, so to speak, every
time he has appeared. and last night
the audience was NOS satisfied until
he had appeared three times. After
this pumber followed five selections
by Miss Swanstrom. Of which "Pa-
pas Little Boy" Patsy" and
when de Folks am Gone" deserve
special mention. Then Mrs. Lund
rendered fine vocal selection, whic b
was, as usual, well received BY the
audience. Macbeth, act one, sect g
five, was next rendered By Mis- 8
Swanstrom, and this might be con-
sidered the browning number Of the
Progre IN. especially since Miss Swan
strom was attired in n Macbeth CO.'S
tune, which made that nam De, very
attractive.
DR.. Olson next made few happy
remarks and announced the reforms
ton program. which will be rem
dered next Friday morning and af
ternoon. and especially the concert
in the evening. to which the public
is cordially invited.
Miss Swanstrom closed with two
selections. one beautifully accompa-

1t had been observed that crops grown
on the experimental plnts at the Massa-
chusotts STATEN which had received ap-
plications If mnriate of potash for u
number of yraes IN succession were un-
healthy in Al pearance, aud 1t was sus-
pprtpd that this condition was due 10 a
loss Of ling flom the soil. Five hundred
to 900 pounds per acre of lime was APP
piled broadcast early III the spring and
subsequently plowed under before pre-
pairing the soil for manuring and seed.
ing. The succeeding crops of oats looked
healthy from the beginning to the end
of the season.
The conclusion is reached that II lib.
eral use of muriate OF potash should be
accompanied by periodical applications
of lime, aud that it is safer to use this
salt on IL deep soil with a permeable
subsoil than upon IL shallow soil with
compact suhsoil, since in the latter case
harmful chlorides are likely to accumu
late near the surface to the injury of the
roots of the plants.
