Tree planting by farmers is being
encouraged in n practical way by the
division of forestry of tho Unite |
States department of agriculture. A
circular has recently been issued stat
ing that the division is prepared, as
far ms limited appropriation will per-
nit, to render practical aud personal
assistance to farmers and others by
cooperating with them to establish
forest plantations, wood lots, shelter
belts and wind breaks. An expert
tree planter has been placed in charge
of a section of the division which has
been organized for this work, and he
will be assisted by collaborators in the
different states who are familiar with
local conditions.

Massachusetts, now has two associa.
tions for providing annuities for retired
public school teachers-one for Bos-
ton teachers only, the other and the
youngest for the teachers in the cities
and towns. The last is believed to be
the only guild organized by the union
of small cities and towns. Though
scarcely six years old, the Teachers
Annuity guild has permanent fund
of over S5l, 900 and an annuity fund
exceeding $4,000. 1t is provided
that annuities shall be go per cent. of
the annual salary at the time Of ro-
tirement, with limit of 5000. The
present assessment is one per cent. of
annual salary, with limit of $40 per
annum, which it is proposed to reduce
to $40. A similar plan has been
adopted in number of large cities in
the country.

struggle has been to arrive at com
promise between the article that would
appear advantageously on the street
and yet mark decided departure from
the hard quill and crown band habit
of last season. A single plume from
the old gray goose's tail, stuck indie
pendently through the crown Of n
slouch felt, is not the approved idea
now. A green, or gray, or brown felt
with a bent-edge brim and stiff
"bowler" crown seems to be the tri-
umphant one Of many shapes and as
might be expected it has been desig-
mated patriotically by the name of Ad-
miral Dewey's flagship, the Olympia.
There is nothing nautical about the
"Olympia." II is wound about the
base of its brim with scarf of dark
liberty silk and this comes to loose
knot in front, in the folds of which the
quill ends of two long, soft composite
plumes are made fast. OF well-dyed
barnyard fowl feathers these plumes
are made, mottled white down the CEN
ter. and 4hey are so arranged as to
droop softly to one side. Into the lib
erty silk knot q fancy strass pin is in
troduced, and this is happy contrast
to the unbecoming cowboyish headgear
that all womenkind that adopted it
during the summer should remember
with blush. A great many patronesses
OF the Olympia wear the easy-fitting
hat on hair dressed low at the
back of the head and strap of elastic,
not skewer pins, is used to keep the
felt in its place.

The Massachusetts, statistical
bureau reports that there is stendy
increase in the amount of work done
on Sunday. This is no, strange. I,
is due largely to the action of working
people, especially in cities, in convert
ing Sunday into II secular holiday.
They use this day TO visit ncighbor
ing pleasure resorts or to make ex-
cursions by rail or water, aud this
creates demand for the services Of
car conductors and motormen, steam
boat hands, walters, bnrtenders aud u
great variety of employees.

Careful estimates made during the
year 1896 indicated that no less than
100, 900 horses were required for the
propulsion of the street cars in actual
use in the various cities in the United
States. Recent estimates indicate
that about 10, 900 horses are all that
are requisite today for the horse car
service throughout the entire United
States. This surely is remarkable
evidence of the emancipation of the
street car horse. Thirteen years ago
it was estimated that over 90 of
these patient aud noble servants of
man were rendered useless from the
excessive strain and overwork to which
they were subjected. SO soon does
the public mind adapt itself to changed
conditions that comparatively few peo-
pie appreciate fully the beneficial
effects which the elimination of the
street car horse from onr public
thoroughfares aud the adoption of the
cable and electric tystens has Sc.

stance of the resolutions introduced
declares that opposition to trusts and
imperialism should be the paramount
issue in the campaign of 1900. The cleo
ton of United States senators by di-
rect vote of the people is also advo-
Gated. The anti-imperialist faction was
defeated and left the hall. The silver
men then formed a permanent state
organization and decided to organize
