also wide enough SO that the wings B
e F and A G H will be on the outside
Of the bed when the end gate is up.
Have two hooks made as at 1 and 2
and bolt to the end gate with the hook
turned down. Then have made out Of
old wagon tire two plates, 3 and 4,
each about six inches long, with slots
about two inches long and large
enough to admit hooks 1 and 2. Bolt
these plates to the under side of the
wagon bed, with the slots extending
out far enough from the bed to admit
the hooks. This makes your hinge for
the end gate so that it can be removed
from the bed instantly.
"Now attach two rods or chains, as
at Fig. s., at G D and let them pass
through rings fastened at the top end
Of the bed. This holds the end gate up,
so that n may stand on it and begin
to unload. Have two rings, one ON
each side of the bed, fastened the
length of the chains or rods from the
end of the bed to hold the end gate up
while the load is being hauled.
Particular attention is called in the
journal already mentioned to the crate
shown in the second cut by q writer
who describes it thus: AS can be seen,
all the Stats composing it are upright,
obviating thereby the use Of corner
supports, for, as put together, the Stats
lap ut the orner and, being we'll nail
ed, afford great frmness to the whole
affair. This is Of decided convenience
in that the crate can thus be made Of
dry goods boxes and the like, simply
with saw and hammer, some nails and
some leather straps for handles, one on
each side.
The shape Of this crate, remember,
should be rectangular, for then If one
wishes to load a number Of them into
a wagon box it can be done with per
feet ease. Indeed, if put to use in this
manper, the crate is Indispensable for
harvesting apples, potatoes, turnips,
carrots, beets, and so on. BY making
up enough Of them, which can be done
on rainy days, to fill a wagon box load

be taken from the field with q single

time, but lessons the danger of bruises,

How Mosquitoes Hibernate.

I'm what stage Of their existence do
mosquitoes and similar gnats pass the
winter?" is a query to which Miss
Mary E. Murtfeldt replies in the st.
Louis Republic: So far as has been 49,
certained, the mosquito and it's nearest
allies hibernate in the perfect form,
hidden away in hollow trees, in cor
ners of buildings and among low BUSH
es. That the most severe cold does
not impair their vitality is proved by
the almost insupportable abundance
and ferocity of these insects in arctic
regions. They will also, survive in
heated rooms in a state of semiactivity,
as the writer has proved by expert
ment.

ROOTS ANNUAL REPORT.
u Deals ut 1sngth With 1nsular Policy
and The Future Of Cuba.

10 Deals ut 1sngth With Insular Policy
and the Future of Cuba.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-The report of
Secretary Root deals at length with the
questions of insular policy, of army re-
organization, of the future Of Cuba and
of the campaign in the Philippines.
Regarding the problem of insular gov
eminent he recalls the fact that the
treaty of Paris places in congress alone
the determination Of the civil rights
and political status of the native inhab.
1tants of the territories coded to the
United States. He argues that this
limitation completely deprives these
people of the right to have the islands
treated as states or as territory pre-.
viously acquired has been treated, or
even to assert a legal right under the
provisions of the constitution, which
was established for the
People of the United States
themselves. Nevertheless he assumes
that the intention is to give them to
the greatest possible extent individual
freedom, self government in accordance
with their capacity, just and equal
laws, an opportunity for education, for
profitable industry and for develop
ment and civilization. Concerning
Cuba the report says the control which
we are exercising in trust for the peo-
pie of Cuba should not and of course
will not be continued any longer than
is necessary to enable the people to es-
tablish a suitable government to which
the control shall be transferred, which
shall really represent the people Of
Cuba and be able to maintain order and
discharge international obligations.

Secretary Hitchcock Discusses Pensions
for the Next Fiscal Year.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-The annual
report of Secretary of the Interior
Hitchcock, while summing up the work
in all bureaus, is of special interest by
reason Of its statements regarding PEN
sions. At the close of the fiscal year
there were 991, 519 pensioners, a de-
crease of 1916 during the year. The
average annual value of all pensions
was $132. "a. The Spanish war prob
ably will increase the pension roll dur
ing the current fiscal year. The secre.
tary concurs in the recommendations
for legislation providing that no PEN
sion be granted to commence prior to
the date of filing the claim and for an
early revision and codifcation Of the
pension laws.
