ing experiments with peach trees, and
if the discovery they have made proves
to be all they claim for it, it will be
a boon to peach growers everywhere.
Thirty trees in the orchard had
their boughs, trunks and limbs painted
white with a spray of ordinary white
wash.
"These whitened trees" said Prof.
H. J. Waters, director of the station,
twill be sure to bear fruit next year,
while the other trees in the orchard
may not. 1t is a simple experiment
that has taught a valuable lesson.
The winter killing of peach buds is
the result of freezing after the buds
have been made to swell by the warm
weather during the winter or spring.
The warm sunshine will make the buds
swell prematurely, while the root of
the tree may be frozen dormant. Shad-
ing and whitening the trees prevent
their absorbing the heat on summer

protective measure Shading the trees
is too expensive. Whitening them is
cheaper The natural color of the trees
attract and absorb the heat of the
sun as black earth absorbs it. The
white coating on peach trees repels
the suns rays.
Last year 80 per cent. of the whit
ened buds passed the winter safely,
while 80 per cent. of those that were
not whitened were killed. To show the
effect of white as a repellant of the
suns rays, a thermometer covered

Last spring plan was proposed at
the Harvard college observatory for
the construction of telescope Of I'M
ual length for phOtographing the
stars and planets. Anonymous don
ors have now furnished the means by
which this experiment may be made,
and it is expected that a telescope
having an aperture of twelve inches
and length Of a hundred feet or
more will soon be ready for trial at
Cambridge. The exhibit of the Har-
ward observatory at the Paris exposi-
ton will represent the work of the
United States in Astronomy. Among
the collection of photographs of hcav-
emily bodies will be the stellar charts
and photographs of stellar spectra
produced with the aid of the great
Photographic telescope now in South
America. There also will be an ex
hibit Of glass photography Illuminated

Saving Meat.

Everyone appreciates good country
bacon All the city people wish there
was a great deal more of it. How we
would enjoy a good old-fashioned hog,
killing. There is nothing else like it.
But very many farmers are troubled
to know how to keep the flies from ill,
juring the meat. Experience shows
that little boraX rubbed on the flesh
side and in the hooks of hams and
shoulders will keep out all worms.
This is simple, safe and cheap. No
danger in the use of the borax. 1t il
clean and this is a good point. The
trouble, expense and danger of smok
ing is all gotten rid of. Meat rubbed
with borax does not need to be smok-
ed.
All that is needed is to wash the salt
off, and hang the meat up. The flies
which lay the skipper egg do not go
over fourteen feet from the ground. If
you can hang your meat above that
you will get rid of them.
A little attention to these matters
will be worth a great deal to farmers
Very many fine hogs have been grown
this year. We hope there will be yet
larger increase next year. There is
money in hogs for the market, but
there is more money in curing the
meat at home and selling it as nice,
clean, sound, sweet country bacon

Pugnacio-s Panther.

j. II. Beach and Joe Morley of
Van Horn took their hounds and
went four miles north to the for
mer's ranch some days ago to
hunt for a panther which had
killed sheep in that vicinity the
day before. The dogs soon hit a
trail, as the panther had come
back TO finish the sheep during
the night, and after a short chase
bayed the panther under a rock.
A fight took place, during which
the dogs were pretty badly torn
up and probably would have been
killed had not the hunters come
up and ended the fight by killing
the panther, which measured six
and half feet from tip to tip.
