One of the most interesting ex-
periments in photography is the
Photographic reproduction of a
green leaf in its natural colors. To
do this take a copper plate such as
is used for process work and have
it silvered. Put it face up in a de-
veloping or toning tray and on it
place the green leaf of which copy
is desired. To hold the leaf in posi-
ton lay over 1T a piece of glass. A
spoiled negative not larger than
by inches, unless the leaf is quite
large, may be used for this purpose.
Turn over the plate a solution of
hydriodate of potash containing a
few grains of jodide to each ounce
of solution. Cover the plate com
pletely, SO that it is at least half an
inch beneath the surface of the
liquid. Set the tray in the bright
sunshine and leave it exposed for
about half an hour, when, on re-
moving from the tray, most beau
tiful Photographic impression of the
green leaf will be found on the
plate. -Rarper's Round Table.

Hsying began in the West side

the village eye this proceeding with a
feeling akin to regret. 1t heralds the
near approach of the time when the
happy, easy and too short vacation
period will close and all must HE
themselves to the halls of primary
learning. There remains but three
weeks of vacation SO the young peo-

The tendency of some of the
younger elements of cur city to be
out late at night is fast leading them
into difficulty. Recently some of
these boys who ought to be under
the care of their mothers have taken
pleasure in breaking the globes of
some of the street lights. Some
people may attribute these out breaks
to animal spirits and the desire for
fun but if the guilty ones are caught
and they will be if they continue,
those animal spirits may receive a
wonderful check and the effect may
not be quite SO much fun as desired.
Parents would do we'll to see that
their children are at home at least as
soon as curfew rings, thus taking.
away any temptation to or opportunity
for doing unlawful acts,

wHEAr--TwENTY BUSHELS. :
But Inclined to be a Little Smutty'
Grade No. ] Northern.

w. p. Fowler threshed his oats and
whea. on his farm near town yester-
day. His wheat averaged just little
under twenty bushels to the acre and
his oats wee fifty bushels per acre.
This is the first of the new crop to be
marketed here, on which it were pos
sible to compute the yield.
Yet the prospect is that this yield
will hold generally throughout the
county and that the average for wheat
will not be Glow sixteen bushels.
The wheat will all grade No. |
Northern, except that some fields
have been damaged somewhat with
smut. However this drawback is not
serious as far as is now known.
Prices are still steady, but there
NAV be a slump and then much ofthe
benefit of the good crop will be lost.
