IRRIGATION NOTES.

Ordinary plant leaves average 10000 pores to the square inch. These transfer the moisture taken from the earth by the roots.
 In closely planted field the water pumped up by the roots of the plants is from two to four pints per square foot in twenty-four hours, or from fifty to 100 tons per acre. There are 250 gallons in ton.

SOME MISNOMERS.
Unfortunate Names That Have Been
Thurst Upon Various
individuals.

"Its strange" said the observer, the
other day, "how so many people are
misnamed."
The cause of this remark was occa-
stoned by man whose name was Luck,
who passed down the street, says the
Louisville Commercial.
"You see that man. From his name
you would think he was destined to be
one of the most fortunate creatures
who ever drew breath. Although his
name is Luck he was certainly born
under the unluckiest star that ever
shone.
II have noticed him." continued the
observer, from his childhood. When
he was little boy he couldn't go to
school with his lessons correct but
what he would make a mistake some
where else and be sure to get fogging
from his teacher. Since he has grown
up he has started in several kinds of
business. He's a rank failure in them
all. Starting out with nothing but the
brightest prospects before him, he is
overcome By some calamity, and down
his business goes. He is good fellow,
too, and for the life of me l can't tell
what is the matter with him.
However, he is only one instance of
misnomer. know man whose name
is Good. Well, if there was ever a bad
man it is that fellow Good. When
boy he was whipped every day by his
mother. Later he commenced to steal.
He has served several terms in prison."
Armor plates are tested by firing
steel projectiles weighing from 100 to
1900 pounds at them from guns charged
with 500 pounds of powder and at a
distance of about city block.
The powder used is brown and in
chunks the sixe of caramel. A charge
for the biggest guns weighs 500 pounds
and is hoisted to the breech by der
rick, the powder being sewed up in bur-
lap bags.
Our present effective fighting force
consists Of four battleships OF the
first class, one battleship of the second
class, two armored cruisers, IS cruisers,
Is gunboats, six double-turreted moni-
tors, one ram, one dynamite gunboat,
one dispatch boat, one transport and
eight torpedo boats.

FORGOT WEERE It WAS.
And In His BewilderEent the Deacon
Betrayed a Family
Secret.

Deacon Puffy is a pillar of church
and society in one of the townships
He has passed the age of his greatest
activity, but his desire to do good is
as manifest as ever, and amy weakness
of the flesh is largely due to the fact
that he CARRIES so much of it, says the
Detroit Free Press.
While the deacon reads of the suffer
ing Cubans and the movement to send
them relief, he at once sent word
around that there would be a meeting
at the district schoolhouse to talk over
the situation and raise means for the
good cause. There was a goodly gath
2ring, and after the deacon had put the
machinery in motion he settled back in
is seat 70 hear from the several others
Who left like relieving their minds. The
ire in the big box stove was hot one;
there was a lack of proper ventilation
nd when the usual bedtime for the
'"acon had arrived he dropped gently
asleep.
Shortly after this occurred there was
ono important point to be settled, and
'Hc chair expressed a desire to hear
'c!r Deacon Puffy. His wife quickly
oce TO the emergency and gave her
:1sband a pinch that was emphasized
~ twist.
"Ouch!" shouted the deacon. "Quit
Hat. Betsy. Get up and kindle the
Irc yourself; I'm sick this mornin'."
Hv the time that order had been re-
'to~cd the deacon was wide awake. and
y his confusion doubled the liberal
Inscription he had already made for
the benefit of the sufferers.
