the speed can be run up to so or 80.
OF course, with heavier guns no such
rapidity can be secured When the s.
inch guns 00-pounders) of the Cincih-
natl were tried the other Gay 36 shots
were fired in five minutes, or seven to
the minute. This was considered good
work -. '-~
Most rapid-fire guns are built up"
Thesbarrel consists of a tube practically
uniform diameter. strengthened at the
breech by Jackets and hoops that are
treated to expand them and then are
shrunk on. But our Gatling and Max
i'm have lately found a way to nanutac-
ture them In a single piece, thus saving
much time in the production.
Rapid fire guns are usually provided
with shield, steel plate half an inch
or more in thickness. This is pierced
to allow about half of the barrel to pro-
trude, and an upward slit reaching from
the center nearly to the top allows the
gunner to sight his piece. Sometimes
the shield occupies a vertical position
and sometimes its upper edge is inclin-
ed backward at an angle of forty-two
degrees, thus directing the enemy's pro-
jectiles upward instead of meeting them
squarely.
An ordnance officer of the navy, hav-
ing been asked whether rapid guns
did not heat quickly, said, a few days
ago: Yes; if you keep them a-going
long enough. But they are seldom used
for more than a few minutes at a time,
and don't have a chance to get hot.
1t will be quickly perceived that the
rapid-fire gun of to-day is different
thing from the Gatling gun of thirty
years ago, which was composed Of a
number of parallel barrels in cylindri-
cal frame, rotated on it's long small-arm
ammunition-New York Times.

Planting Out Roses.

In the cultivation of roses much de-
pends on the start. In the first place
procure the best plants possible for
planting, not necessarily the largest,
the oldest or the finest sorts at high
est prices, but endeavor to obtain such
plants as are stocky. We'll rooted nat
urally strong growers and such as by
nature are apt to be free from disease.
A good rule, however, would
be to plant as soon as all danger of
frost is over and the ground is warm
Nothing is gained by putting out
plants while the ground is cold and
there is likelihood of frost or very cold
nights. Field-grown roses must nee
essarily be planted out earlier than
pot-grOwn stock. as they do best when
planted in a dormant condition. They
also may require some pruning, if not
already pruned when sent out by the
nurseryman or florist. First, spade up
the soil to a depth of eighteen inches,
or, as the gardener would say two
spades Deep which depth may seem
to the novice to be rather unnecessary,
but it is quite essential that the roots
have plenty of room in which to work
Second. remove from the bed one-third
of the soil and replace il with the
same bulk of well-rotted manure (well-
rotted COW manure is unexceled for
this -purpose), in which has been incor-
porated some finely chopped soil Spade
this compost thoroughly into the soil
in the bed, and with the back of the
spade mash all clods or Jumps. Bear in
mind that this spading and working
of the soil must only be done when the
soil is in good condition as regards
moisture. for if the soil is worked when
pasty or too wet the chances are that
it will be ruined for the whole season.
until the action of frost and winter
weather imparts to it again it's nat
ural friableness.
In setting out the roses in the bed
do not neglect the all-important firm
ing of the soil about the base of the
plants This should be done by trod-
ding the soil we'll with the feet. imme-

The insurance commissionership seems to
be the greatest bone of contention and the
most sought after office in the gift Of Gov

if there was anything significant in his
