Crop Report for April.

The Michigan crop report for April,
says that the extremely cold weather
in February was followed by peculiar
and exceedingly disagreeable weather
in March. While the temperature for
the month has not been lower than
usual, yet the conditions have not been
at all favorable to crops. There has
been more or less precipitation all
through the month, but this has not
benefited wheat much, as the snow
was either blown away or melted
nearly as soon as it fell. There has
been much freezing and thawing, es-
pecially during the first half OF the
month. This has caused many fields
to be covered with water, or partly so
at least, which was unable to settle
away, as the ground was frozen to a
great depth. In answer to the ques-
ton HAS wheat during March suffered

readily to this foreign substance, the

As the years rolled by he could occa-

Gen. Gomez VIII Again Agitate Cuban
Independence = The Japanese and
Chinese In Hawaii had a Scrap
Another New York Fire.


The Cuban military assembly being
dead, Gen. Maxine Gomez will take
up his program of solidifying the
Cuban people into party that shall,
without ceasing, urge the United
States to withdraw from the island.
His purpose is to make the people seem
to have but one emotion, one desire
the thought of independence and of
absolute separation from the US Gen.
Gomez, If reinstated, would be of great
service to the United States in the dis
bursemelt of the $780, 600, but his
political program means the keeping
up of agitation and disturbance in the
minds of the people and the weaken
ing of American authority by produc-
ing the impression that everything
done by the Americans is temporary
and may sooner on later be overturned,
hence American observers consider any
such agitation as extremely harmful
to the industrial revival and the res
toration of Cuban credit.

SCIENCE OF EATING.
Some Advice for People Who want to
Get Fat.

Some Advice for People Who Want to
Get Fat.
Here Is good advice to thin people
Who want to grow fat. says Parsons
Weekly. 1t seems contrary to all our
early training, but It Is full of good
common sense. and comes from
prominent physician. His suggestions
are as follows: IF you are thin and
want to put flesh on your bones, eat
before going to bed for the night.
Physiology teaches us that there is q
wasting away of tissues while a per-
son sleeps as well as when he Is awake
and, this being so, there should be
continuous nourishment. Food taken
at dinner or In the early evening is
always digested at the time OF retir-
ing, and the activity OF the process of
assimilation continues until long after
We are asleep. II the tissues are not
nourished they are pulled down by
the wasting process. and as a result
sleeplessness ensues. On full stom-
aoh, however, or with some food TO
sustain the system, there is a build
ing up Of the tissue. Man Is the only
creature l know Of who does not deem
1t proper to sleep on good meal.
The infant, in this respect, instinct
lively cries to be fed at night, showing
that food Is necessary during that
time as well as through the day and
that, left too long without it causes
a discomfort, which it makes known
by crying. There is no need fos-rest
In the digestive organs provided the
quantity Of food eaten is not above
the normal during the "a hours. Too
long intervals between meals are bad
for the stomach from the fact that the
cessation and resumption of work of
the digestive organs tend to enfeeble
them. A moderate working of the or
gans through the "a hours is much
more beneficial. I would advise those
suffering from insomnia to take some
thing to eat before going to sleep al
ways. A glass of milk and bread OF
any digestible food will do"
