Of the Twentieth United States infantry
which Is part of Wheaton's brigade, OF
MacArthur's division, now operating in
the Philippines, arrived in Chicago to-
day. He left Manila April 1, on sick

IT do not think the war in the Philip
pines will last long. The impression
seems to be here that they may return
to the mountains and maintain some sort
of a war for long tiure to come. But
the truth is the mountain people are our
friends, and have offered to raise regi-
ments to help put down Aguinaldo.''

LONDON, May 1.-THE Filipino junta
here informs the Associated Press that
on receipt of the news saying all for
eigners had been ordered from the Fill
pino lines, cable message of inquiry
was sent to Aguinaldo, who replied that
the announcement was due to the state
ments of Mr.. Higgins, the manager of
the railroad, on his return to Manila af-
ter several months residence in the Fill
pino lines.
The Filipinos, it is said, ridicule the
statement that Aguinaldo Is q fug tive,
and declare his retirement to the Car
ballos mountains is part of his strategic
plans, as the mountains are almost mac
cessible and are inhabited by savages who
use poisoned arrows and that it is alb

INSURGENTS DESERVING.
Are Leaving AgufnaIdo and Return

NEW YORK. May 16.-A dispatch from
San Miguel, via Manila, says: 1.-THE In
surgent, Gen. Gregorio del Pillar, believes
that he has been deserted by the Filipino
government and desires to surrender if
he can secure what he regards as honor
able terms from the Americans. The
insurgent hospital near San Isidra is re-
ported to be overwhelmed with wounded.
Gen. Pillars main subsistence depot is
five miles in front of Lawton. The in
d1gnation Of the natives has compelled
the insurgent generals to countermand
their orders to burn the towns as they
retreated. The American policy of not
destroying property is creating revul-
sion of feeling in our favor. Natives are
returning through the American lines
to their own homes.

Transplanting Time.

If trees are long and slender or are
rather large for transplanting, it will
nearly always pay to set good stout
stake by them to prevent the wind from
swaying them around and loOsening the
cots. The tree should be wrapped with
zone soft material when it is tied to the
take, in order to prevent the cord from
injuring the bark The best time to
attend to this is when the tree is set
out. Be sure that the stake is set firm
80 that it will be q support to the tree,
rather than make the tree a support for
the stake.
So far as can be avoided trees or
plants should not be left out of the
ground with the roots exposed to wind
or sun. The drying of the roots by
such exposure is very injurious to the
vitality Of the trees. II the trees come
and cannot be set Immediately, the bet
ter plan in every way is to heel them in
carefully so as to keep the roots moist,
and then when ready to set out take up
but few trees at time, and even then
it will not be bad plan to have an old
piece of carpet or tow sack kept wet
aud spread over the roots so as to pro-
test them until they are put in the
ground If by any means in shipping
the treos got delayed, so that when they
arrive they IRE dry, the safest and best
plan is 10 bury the whole tree under
the ground, covering completely, letting
remain two or three days If, after do
ing this, they do not resume their natural
condition, it is waste of labor to set
them out Another plan is to immerse
in water, but this plan is not so good as
burying them. The better plan is to
have them as fresh as possible aud to
keep them out of the ground as little
while as possible, and while they are
out of the ground protect the roots as
much as possible. Farmers Voice.

Fertilizers for Market Gardens.

Among those whose experience ena-
bles them to speak with authority upon
the subject, is Aaron Low, whose CON
illusions, as below stated, seemed to be
unanimously approved by the Massa-
chusetts Horticultural Society that he
was addressing:
Farmers and market gardeners often
say that they have more confidence in a
heavy dressing of stable manure than
in any Of the commercial fertilizers in
the market. In the vicinity of large
cities, where the cost of hauling stable
manure Is very little, it would pay to
use it but in the country the cost would
be much more by the time that it was
delivered, bringing it to too high figure
to leave any profit on its use In an
experience Of twenty years in using both
stable manure and fertilizers on almost
all kinds Of garden vegetables, have
come to the conclusion that | can grow
better crops on the same amount of
moneys worth Of fertilizer than of stable
man--e. The question is not as to the
reliability Of stable manure. but as to
the amount that the crops cost, and when
the cost is more than the product re-
turned the farmer must endeavor to re-
duce that cost. | firmly believe that
farmers. by using high grade of fer
tilizers, or chemicals, supplemeuting
their use by blowing under green crops,
can produce most Of their crops at less
cost than when using stable manure. "

Poor Butter in Winter.

One Of the causes why the winter
butter made in many diaries is not SO
good and so we'll favored as the summer
product is that the feed stufs used are
often a little moldy, or in some way
spoiled. They may not be downright
bad" or the spelling so pronounced as
TO make the feeder willing to throw it
aside, but they are often just bad enough
to put the milk a little Of in flavor.
Another common cause is that the churn.
ing is not done frequently enough. This
is partly because the milk supply is
usually less and it takes longer to COL
lect what is ordinarily regarded in the
particular dairy as a churning of cream
and partly because it is thought that,
as the weather is cold, milk will keep
longer, not being liable to sour or
undergo puterefactive fermentation. -
Neither Of these reasons are sufficient
for churning any less frequently in win
ter than 10 summer. The churning
should be done as often, with q smaller
amount of cream at each churning if
necessary. When cream has been over
kept, even though the weather be cold,
it undergoes change which seriously
Injuries the flavor and to some extent
Injuries the grain. When cream, for ex-
ample, is week old, as it often is in
winter churning. it will have lost con-
siderable Of it's desirable favor and often
acquires an unpleasant one. If for some
reason that appears unaccountable to
the butter maker the winter butter does
not seem as good as it ought to be, and
the winter habit is to have long inter-
walls between churnings, make change
at this point, and churn as often as
twice a week, and see if it does not
remedy the trouble.
