Most farmers, particularly those rails
ing early vegetables, sometimes wish
they had good propagating tank for
starting cuttings. Many an odd dollar
can be picked up in the spring with a
few hundred towering plants or early
tomato and lettuce plants. A little sand
table, with a gentle heat, would be very
handy in the house. A hotbed may be
inconvenient or troublesome and n
email greenhouse out of the question.
Such q propagating tank suitable for
window can be easily made by any tim
smith or gas filter. Have the gas man
Join up with "elbows" three pieces of
common inch gas pipe; two pieces, a,
three inches long and one piece, b, five
feet long. Joined up, they would look
like Fig. /. Have a zinc box made five
feet long, two feet wide and six inches
deep and made water-tight. At one
end, in the middle, cut two holes, so
that the piece Of gas pipe can be laid
in the box, resting on the bottom and
projecting two inches beyond the box.
Fig. 2 shows how the pipe is placed on
the box. The openings where the pipe
enters the box are to be soldered up wa
ter-tight. The box is then placed on a
table with the pipe end Of the box pro-
iecting beyond the table as seen in Fig.
3. The box is then filled with water,
covering the top Of the pipe as shown by
the dotted line, C. Place in the water
pieces Of brick and on the brick lay
pieces Of roofing slate to form loose
slate top two inches from the top of the
box and half an inch above the top OF
the water, as shown at d. Leave small
hole in one corner of the slate to supply
water to the tanks. Fill the whole top
OF the box over the slate with sand, e.
In this sand cuttings can be raised, as
the tank, when in operation, will be full
OF warm water, giving gentle bottom
heat for the cuttings.
For heat use a small kerosene lamp,

pipe which projects beyond the box.

ONE CAUSE.

One of the causes that move
Judge Lynch to execute a GER
tain class of criminals is not
fully understood by our Eastern
and Northern contemporaries,
says the Austin Statesman. 1t
seems that the mighty wave of
indignation and wrath that
sweeps over every community
when a pure woman is violated
by one of these fends should be
enough in some degree to palli-
ate the crime, but there is
another cause for lynching, and
this is the difficulty of obtaining
legal testimony of the guilt of
the accused. Although the fact
may be proven to moral GER
tainty, and although there may
be no doubt of the commission of
the crime, it is difficult for a re-
fined and virtuous woman to be
induced to testify to the facts
that the law demands.
There is no courtesy of the
prosecuting attorney that can
cover the immodesty of the in
terrogatories he is compelled to
PROFOUND in order to obtain le-
gal conviction, and the scene in
the court house becomes much
more embarrassing and totally
unbearable to a modest woman
when she is turned over to the
defence for ross-examination.
The women of this State would
rather suffer death than go
through such an ordeal or remain
through life a martyr to her
modesty. This is well known to
those who are inflamed with re-
venge when a female in this
State suffers outrage and the
only certainty of melting out ad-
equate punishment to the perpe-
traitor of such a crime is by the
court of Judge Lynch. The
modification of the law would be
an infringement on settled legal
principles that would disturb the
whole OF our penal jurispru-
and the only remedy after
all is to stamp out the crime in
some way or another.
