Now all the tree tops lay asleep
Like green waves on the sea, &
As still as in the silent deep

But coming to times quite modern it
Is Tennyson and Wordsworth who are
the greatest lovers and shrewdest OBJ
servers Of trees Their poems are inlaid
with loving references to their favorite
forest growths. Indeed, without his
woodlands there would be no Words
worth. The trees were the guardians
of his heart
Therefore am still
A lover OF the meadows and the woods.
But much as English poets revel In
illusions to and des ;riptions Of trees it lie
not until we come to our own Ameri-
can singers, with their new world pas
sion for nature, that we find the most
eloquent exponents and lovers Of tree
life. Whittier, LongfeNow, Bryant,
Holmes, Whitman and Stoddard all
found the tree most suggestive and
impressive thing, whether it be stripped
of its foliage and laden with snow in
winter or nestling lazily with its in
Vulnerable leaves in summer. Every
one knows Longfellow's opening line
Of "Evangeline:''
This Is the forest primeval.
But too few know his beautiful lines:
And nature, the old nurse, took
The child upon her knee,
Saying, "Here is story book
Thy Father has written for thee.
"Come, wander with me,' she said,
Unto regions yet untrod,
And read what is still unread
In the manuscripts of God"
Whittier says:
Give fools their gold and knaves their power ;
Let fortunes bubbles rise and fall;
Who sows field or trains flower,
Or plants tree Is more than all.
Bryant's stately lines on the forest
have now endeared themselves to the
heart of every lover of nature, and are
almost too well known to quote:
The groves were Gods first temples.
Ere man learned
To hew the shaft, and lay the architrave
And spread the roof above them-ere he framed
The lofty vault, to gather and roll back
The round of anthems In the darkling wood,
Amidst the cool and silence he knelt down
And offered to the Mightiest solemn thanks
And supplioations.
Who can ever see apple trees planted
without calling to mind tBryant's beau
tiful lines upon that subjecty In his
"Forest Hymn" and in 'Thanatopsis"
the very spirit Of the woods is en-
balmed. But the one poem of George
Morris, beginning "Woodman, spare
that tree" distant echo, though per-
haps no Intentional plagiarism, of Camp
bells "Spare, woodman, spare the
beechen tree!" has done more toward
developing due love and veneration
for trees than probably any other single
influence. MARY =. LEONARD.

SCHOOL NOTES.

At a meeting OF the Board OF Edu-
cation held on Monday evening,
Prof. VIM. Angus was reelected
principal and superintendent for the
coming year at salary Of one thou
sand dollars. The following teach
ers were also reelected at salaries OF
$45 per month: Miss Kittie Haven,
Miss Edna Tennison, Miss Nettie So
lum, and Miss Lizzie M. Naylor.
Miss Maybell Fawcett, who has done
faithful and efficient work as assis-
tant principal during the past two
years, had signifed her intention to
accept a position in a school nearer
her home, hence was not reelected.
Three pupils will this year finish
the prescribed course OF study in the
High School, and receive their dip
Tomas. The names OF these energetic
and successful students are Miss Vii
la Wallace, Edward Bennewitz and
Charles Johnson. Miss Wallace
came here year or two ago from
Duluth, where she had attended
school, but the two latter are pro-
ducts entirely Of the Warren school.
Another successful school-year in
the Warren school is drawing to-
ward it's close Teachers and pupils
have worked diligently and ener-
-getically. The attendance has reach
ed the 400 mark, and already there
is an urgent demand for more room
to accommodate the constantly in
creasing number Of pupils.
In order to provide school accom-
modations for the largely increased
attendance that we can expect next
year, it becomes absolutely necess-
airy to finish the two unfinished
rooms in the school building and to
employ at least one more teacher.
We can not afford to have our
schools crippled on account of lack
OF room. The wisdom OF making
the new school building an eight
room building in anticipation OF the
growth of the school is very appar-
ent now. The two additional rooms
can be finished at very small cost,
and when this is done the school
building will be finished complete
from basement to eupola, the pride
OF the city Of Warren. At the last
meeting Of the Board Of Education
it was decided to bring this matter
before the people for their action at
a special school meeting to be held
at the school house on May 22nd
next.
Adam Bede has been invited to de-
liver the address at the graduating
exercises, and it is believed that he
will accept. .. ...
County Superintendent Bennett in
forms us that he has made arrange
ments for summer school for teach
ers at Argyle, but the date Of COM
mencement has not yet been fixed.

of how much benefit good schools
are to Warren?

Busted Millionaires.

Hard as were the effects of the panic
OF '93 to 81 on the farm and the farmer,
still most of farms were kept by the
owners and the number of foreclosures
was mnder the circumstances surprising
ly small. A few days since we took q
stroll around one of our big north
western cities with friend. We went
up on to Knob Hill, where the million.
aires of earlier days had built their
magnificent residences. Hardly one of
these splendid homes but had gone by
foreclosure into the hands of eastern
capitalists, and the former owners to-day
are so poor that they cannot raise the
fees to take them through the bank
ruptcy courts. IL was the same way
with many of the manufacturing plants
and big Office buildings. Times are
frightening and better days are in store
for such cities, buta new race Of business
men win take the place Of the old.

Natures Pruning Methods.

Nature is harsh, ,nercile IS and radical
IN her pruning methods. The cyclone,
the sleet storm, the lightning stroke, the
frost, the fire, the hail, cut, slash, decim-
ate and mutilate her choicest handiwork
only out of the wreck to produce still
better and more beautiful things. TIL
handsomest shade tree we know of has
grown from an old stick of tree smitten
by cyclone years ago. Harsh as are
her methods nature is almost motherly
in her healing and restorative processes
and so the broken limb sends forth a
new and vigorous growth, the dead tree
gives life to beautiful vine and soon
no scars are left of her rough pruning
methods.

Calf Cholera.

Securing is often common result of
indigestion and may be nothing moro
than an attempt of nature to relieve the
stomach and bowels of irritating con-
tents. But the peculiar diarrhoea which
attacks young calves from one to few
lays old, usually during the first two
weeks after birth, is very different
thing. 1t is recognized by the best of
authority, as James Law f. r. c. V. S.,
Geo. Fleming +. r. G. " s. and others
as contagious disease. Once started
n stable it is liable to persist for a
ong time or until the place has been
most thoroughly cleansed and disinfect-
I'd. 1t may be introduced into healthy
stables by cows from infected stables,
when they are closely approaching calv-
ng, or by calf from a herd where the
Infection exists The surroundings OF
he calf are powerful influences. Calves
Kept indoors suffer to greater extent
han those running in the open air and
sunshine. Close, crowded, filthy, bad
smelling buildings, and cold, wet beds

Whatever may be the starting cause of
this malady, when once established it is
liable to perpetuate itself by contagion
and prove veritable plague in herd.

1t will further be produced in enormous
quantities in this territory just as soon

that in order to protect the producers of

Renters of Grain Farms.

We were talking this week with man
who is a fair representative of quite a
arge class of Iowa farmers men who
ent land, on which to grow grain crops
% sell, exclusively. He .ells us that
after trying this method farming for
'ourteen years, he has come to the con-
.lusion that at best there is a bare living
it and pretty slim one at that.
What this man said is only too true.
This method is bad for the renter and
pad for the owner of the farm so rented.
These landsare constantly getting poorer
md yielding less and less. The com
petition among this class of renters keeps
he rent for such farms up to point in
excess of what they are fairly worth.
food as Iowa land is, the cultivation Of
can only be made profitable and its
ertility alone maintained by putting the
grain products of the farm into some
other shape before selling them. The
'aw material-grain and hay-raised
should find a market as milk, butter,
cheese, poultry, eggs, hogs, beef, horses,
Or in some other condensed form, which
will keep the nutritive elements contain

Fruit Damaged.

Reports from all portions of the west
ern fruit country are in and show that
the north country-north Iowa and
Minnesota suffered less damage than
any other section. In Florida the
oranges are killed again. In Georgia,
Alabama, Mississippi and Arkansas i'm
mense damage has been done, in Mis-
souri, and the south half of Iowa also.
Aside from few of the half hardy
fruits which we have been tempted to
experiment. with during the past ten
mild years, no serious damage has been
sustained and fair crop of our hardy
fruits may be expected.

A Libel on Corn.

A writer in the Chicago Record has
crammed into an article entitled 1.-THE
Curse Of Indian Corn" more of false
statement than we have seen in any
article for long time. He says among
other things:
"Of all crops grown in any wide
measure in this country, corn is most
exhausting to the soil. In most sections
OF the central west today it is an i'm
possibility to grow two corn crops in
succession from the same piece of land.
1t requires more work to raise a crop of
corn than any other crop, unless it be
cotton. Indian corn has been the curse
OF the American farmer, and it's evils are
abroad today, not only as a soil destroyer,
but as one OF the greatest food frauds in
the vegetable world"
1t seems almost unnecessary to refute
such palpable untruths. Corn is the
least exhaustive cereal crop grown by
the western farmer. 1t is more easily
raised than any other cultivated crop.
1t is carbonaceous plant and the crop
is largely drawn from the atmosphere
and the sun. The corn crop is the
western farmers raw material and upon
rests largely the structure of his
agricultural prosperity. As valuable
food product for both man and beast, no
other cereal compares with it in the in
finite variety, palatability and nutrition
Of the various products obtained from it.
This man was an agricultural writer who
knew absolutely nothing touching the
subject he was writing on.
