JACOB BAUER, Agent
The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1898-06-29

The world has seen many bread
riots. In 1756, when harvests all over
the world were short, wheat went up,
aud in England there were many in
surrections on account of the scarcity
of bread. In 1867, when the price of
wheat rose in Mark Lane to the equiv
alent Of $3.50 a bushel, there were
serious disturbances all over England,
and great violence was done by the
starving populace. In 1775, when the
price of wheat again went to an almost
prohibitive price to the poor, it was
necessary, in France, for the troops
to guard the markets, and q general
insurrection was only kept down by
the prompt massing Of troops in the
disatfected and suffering places. The
world well knows what q formidable
part was played on the eve of the
French revolution by the rise in food
stuifs, and it will be equally recalled
how frequent, since that revolution,
were the expressions of popular hun
ger and despair up to the time of the
enormous expansion of the American
grain production and the fall in agri-
cultural prices. 1t is most pitiful to
think of people, driven by want to the
cry for bread, cry which, If made too
insistently, is answered with bullets.

Only a Glass in the Morning.

Youth is the forming time OF habits, and
these, unless carefully watched, will grow
until they bind like ropes and handouts.
There are few young men who are awak-
ened to the evils Of bad habit In time to
conquer as did certain young man who
had thoughtlessly formed the habit OF TAX
Ing glass OF liquor every morning before

suggested the friend.
Very well to please you I'll do so, but
assure you there's no cause for ALARM"

The Elephant as He Really Is.

Few more impressive condolences
can be impaired than one in which a
Hindu describes how he knows his
elephant intends to destroy him. 1t
is all SO seemingly trivial, and yet in
reality of such deadly significance.
His story is so full of details that prove
the mans profound understanding of
what he is talking about, that one re-
mains equally amazed at the brute's
power to dissimulate and its intended
victims insight into this would-be mur-
derer's character. And yet, from the
psychological standpoint, an elephant
never gives any other such indication
of mental power as is exhibited in its
revenge. That patient, watchful, i'm
placable hatred, often provoked simply
because a man is in attendance upon
another animal for it is the rule with
tuskers to detest their next neighbors)
speaks more conclusively of high
intellectual grade than all the stories,
true or false, that have been told of
their ability. Such concentration and
fxedness of purpose, such careful, un-
relaxed vigilance, such perfect and con-
sistent pretense, and, when the time
comes, such desperate, unhesitating
energy as homicidal animals exhibit
are impossible without a very consid-
erable, although in this instance very
irregular, development.
No one can deny that if this Great
ure is great at all its greatness shows
itself in its crimes; these have caused
it to be worshiped in the East, where
men venerate nothing but mereiless,
irresponsible force, and where an ex-
hibition of these qualities and traits
described, fully accounts for the for
mula, my Lord the Elephant, -

Preventing Smut In Oats.

The 1897 experiments in preventing
smut conducted by the New York ex-
pertinent station at Geneva, showed
that sprinkling the seed with one
per cent. solution of either lysol or
formalin entirely prevented the smut.
When the seed was sprinkled with a
solution of potassium sulphide very
small percentage of smut appeared.
Iu some tests in soaking the seed it
was found that $40 of one per cent.
solution of lysol prevented smut when
the seed was soaked one hour, and
2-10 of one per cent solution of forma-
lin one hour prevented any smut
None of the treatments injured the
seed in the least.-American Agricul-

Farm and Garden Notes.

A small horse is the thing of the
past-if you expect to get price for
him.
The supply of horses just now is
about equal to the demand-in num-
bers but not in quality.
Till pasturage is good, give your
brood sows some clover hay every
day. 1t will do them good.
One of the benefits of low prices for
horses is the cross roads five dollar
stallion has been castrated.
Plug horses are never good proper,
ty. They often eat more than good
ones, making them double tax upon
their owners.
Have you observed that the horses
farmers are using now are poorer as a
whole than those they used five and
six years ago?
The snowfall is old-fashioned but
most desirable for the home lawn.
During the blooming season it is cov'
cred with masses of snowy white.
The Rocky Mountain blue spruce is
one of the most valuable introductions
of late years and ranks among the
most beautiful of hardy evergreens.
Six degrees Fahrenheit is a good
temperature in which to germinate
seeds Of tender plants coming from
semi-tropicalre regions. Tropical plants
require in the neighborhood Of eighty
degrees. .
The variegated dogwood is one Of
the most beautiful shrubs at all sea-
sons of the year. the foliage is
richly variegated with white and this
contrast is well maintained through
out the season.
The tartarian or bush honeysuckle
is free growing shrub and one Of the
earliest to blossom in the spring. II
is first covered with pink and white
flowers and later is attractive because
of its bright colored berries.

A Remarkable Case.

The following case was printed originally
In The Monitor, n newspaper published at
Meaford, Ontario. Doubts were raised as
to its truthfulness. consequently close
watch was kept on the case for two years
and the original statement has now been
completely verified.
Mr.. Petch had been hopeless paralytic
for five years. His case has had wide at
tention. He was confined to his bed, was
bloated almost beyond recognition. and
could not take solid food. Doctors called
the disease spini sclerosls, and all said he
could not live. The Canadian Mutual Life
Association after thorough examination,
paid him his total disability claim OF
81 $50, regarding him as forever incurable.
For three years he fingered in this con.

CHALK.
Where 1t Comes From, How 1t is Pre-
pared and What It is Used For.

Where 1t Comes From, How 1t is Pre-
pared and What 1t is Used For.
Chalk is one of the most important
crude materials brought to this coun.
try for manufacturing purposes. 1t
enters largely into the manufac ture Of
rubber, oilcloth, wallpaper and paint,
and after being refined, purified and
made into powder of various degrees
of fneness is sold on the market for
hundreds of purposes for which no
other material would be as useful. 1t
is one of the few articles used in the
trades which come almost exclusively
from Europe. Some chalk beds have
been discovered in the United States,
but the expense of transporting it is
too great to make the home product q
successful competitor with the foreign
article. 1t is found in the bank Of
the Thames River, at Dieppe and near
Copenhagen, and is shipped to this
country in its crude condition. There
is no duty ON chalk, and it usually
comes as ballast in bulk. About 1885,
900 tons came to the United States
last year.
There is nothing complicated about
its preparation for the market. 1t is
placed in huge grinding machines
where it is ground in water and then
hoated off into vats, where all foreign
substances and impurities are precipi-
tated. The water is then drawn off
by series Of filtering operations and
the soft residuum is dried by steam
heat and exposure to the air. By
means of burrmills and betting the
white substance is reduced to
powder and packed in barrels and
shipped for use. The finest is pressed
into pieces of various shapes for the
drug trade, another grade, in crayon
form, goes to dealers in art materials,
coarser stock is sent to manufacturers
of frames and gilded ware, thousands
Of tons are used by manufacturers Of
paint and putty, and great quantities

Saint Gambrinus.

This Is the name Of the patron saint OF
the beer drinkers. According to the story
told Of how he came to fill this niche, 1t
seems 1t was a shallow-pated fellow who
was so distressed at being Tilted by girl,
that he proposed to commit suicide. While
he sat upon the limb OF the tree with n slip
moose around his neck, Satan came to him
and offered to reveal to him an art which
should bring him riches and rank, and
make the girl chagrined for having refused
him, and at the end OF thirty years he was
to give up his soul to the devil. The bar
gain was made and the art taught was beer
brewing. Men liked his beer so much that
by its sale he became very wealthy; while
the Emperor Charlemagne liked 1t so much
that he gave him rank. but Gambrlnus be-
came so tricky that when the imps came
for his soul he made the drunk on his
beer.
What became OF him at last the story does
not say, but 1t is a most suggestive com.
ment on beer, an invention OF the devil
costing the beer-seller his soul, and so In
toxicating as to make even the devils drunk.

Grain with Pasture.

Whether or not it pays to feed some
grain to cows on pasture is still a ques-
ton for discussion. While it seems
ON its face not to pay, yet upon the
whole it has been our custom for years
to give at least enough grain, even on
the best pasture, to toll our cows to
the stable morning and evening, and
more as pastures become aged aud less
succulent. At the time it may seem
that no profit accrues from the added
expense, but our experience teaches
us that the profit comes in later 10y

The Right WAY to Set Fruit Trees.

A. d. Wood, of Michigan, writes
When any kind of plant has its roots
exposed, it is sure to suffer loss of vi
tality by evaporation. These should
be kept covered with damp straw or
cloth, and if to be kept several days
before setting, placed in cool place.
Trees sometimes arrive in shriveled
condition, caused by delay in ship
ment and transportation. These
should be Immediately placed in a
trench horizontally and covered with
puddled earth and allowed to remain
for several days. If the branches are
still shriveled, they are worthless.
They should be plump when removed.
Remove all bruised aud injured
roots with a sharp knife or pruning
shears. Also cut off oil fibrous root
let's, as new growth starts from the
large roots. Cut back the top quite
severely, the peach to whip and the
pear and apple to three or four short
branches equally distributed around
the trunk and not more than three
feet from the ground. The braHGhes
should not exceed the roots in leNakh
and quantity. Dig a hole large
enough to admit the roots in natu-
raj position. In the center of the
hole place small amount of earth.
On this set the tree and gently press
it into the earth. This insures sufii-
cient soil among the roots to prevent
any open space. 1t is these open
spaces which often cause the death of
the tree. Pack the soil above the
roots as fast as it is filled in, leaving
the upper three inches loose to act as
O malch to preserve moisture.
1t is best to set the trees q little
deeper than they stood in the nursery.
This place may be known by the diff
ference in color of the bark. 1t is
customary to set tree rs near verti-
cal as possible, but l have learned
that it should be set so as to lean
slightly toward the direction of the
prevailing winds, then as the tree
grows, it gradually straightens and at
maturity is able to maintain that posi-
ton. A tree should never be mulched
the first year, as it will cause the roots
to grow near the surface. There is
nothing better than frequent and shall
low cultivation to conserve moisture
and promote new growth. 1t is bet
ter to grow some cultivated crop
among the trees than to allow the
ground to become occupied by weeds
and grass, but all seeds should not be
planted closer than four feet to the
tree. Careful attention should be
given the new growth, cutting back
any branches which are growing out
of proportion to the others, keeping
the top as nearly balanced as possible.
Rub off all shoots on the trunk which
are not needed for main branches.

How to BE Successful With Bees.

Scarcely any one is incapable of
handling and controlling bees. 1t is
simply Mistaken idea of some people
that bees have a special dislike for
them, and that only certain individuals
can handle bees. 1t is only neces-
sary to know how to handle bees for
any one to succeed with them. To
handle bees properly it is not neces-
sary to go to war with them, but abso-
lutely wrong. If we should under
take to fight a colony of bees into
subsection, the fight woull continue
until the last bee of the hive was
dead, providing we held out that long
ourselves.
Bees can only be handled success
fully by kind treatment, and by study
ing their habits and becoming well in
formed of their nature aud mode OF
doing things. Any one may succeed
with them by taking advantage of their
weak points. Smoke is the control
ling agent to be adopted in handling
bees. By smoking bees they become
excited and will at once proceed to fill
themselves with honey, and when thus
filed are perfectly peaceable and will
allow themselves to be abused, robbed,
and even killed without offering
any resistance. The Cyprian bees are
the only ones / ever had that at times
would resist smoke, and in order to
handle them / have used simply kind
treatment aud careful manipulation.
and fully succeeded. If we but take
the time, we may handle any colony
of bees without the aid of smoke by
careful manipulation if we get well
acquainted with their nature and
habits.
If you are afraid of bees, you will
not get along with them very well,
and the greater fear the less success
you will have The fear Of bee stings
keeps many from engaging in bee cul-
ture. This reason to the practical
apiarist appears very foolish indeed.
You may say that bees sting persons
whether they arc afraid of them or
not. This may bc true to some ex-

uaprlnr in the Russian Navy.

With foreign navies, notably with
Russia, the limitations in the matter
of capital punishment are not so exact
as in the American and British navies.
Indeed, hanging is believed by all
English-speaking crews TO be so CON-
mon with the Russians that whenever
one of their ships Of war goes out OF
harbor for day and then returns, our
people forward are firmly convinced
that the excursion was simply to reach
the open sea at sundown, so as to hang
aman at yard-arm clear of territorial
limits. Francisco Argonant.
