DIVINITY
ROUTED.
ne Made the Mistake of Airing
His Views Before a
Tramp.

one Gay we were travelling across
the plains in the caboose of a freiobt
train writes Rev. Cyrus Townsend
Brady Of his experiences as "A Mis-
sionary in the Great Vest in the
August Ladies Home Journal. "A
young divinity student was with US.
He was one Of the ambitious kind Of
divinity students who wreck a parish or
two when they begin, and finally drift
upon the ecclesiastical al bargain counter.
he was ready to argue about anything
with anybody. A greasy. dilapidated-
looking tramp came into the caboose
at M Of the stations at the end of a
division, and presently engaged in a
heated discussion with the young theo-
logue on the disadvantages of educa-
ton. He maintained the affirmative
mat the less a man knew, and the
less education he had, the happier he
was-with so much skill and adroit-
ness. and showed such mastery of logic
and literature that he routed the poor
boy-horse, foot and dragoons-so eff
fectively that the young man rose and
went out on the platform to hide, his
chagrin. leaving the supposed tramp
chuckling oyer his pipe in huge enjoy
ment at his easy victory. The Bishop
had listened without saying a word, and
when the student left he turned to the
man and inquired sharply. What col
lege are you from. sir1' 'Yale!'
answered the mar without thinking.
The unlucky admission destroyed the
mans argument. for he was a living
Of the fallacy Of his own pro-
position"

Land for Soy Beans.

The land for soy beans should be
prepared about the same as for corn.
A Kansas grower says that listing is
not advisable as the pods grow too
close to the ground to admit Of Guilt
waiting. Some that have tried listing
have got fairly good results. by filling
the bitches before planting but the
seed should be put in newly prepared
earth, at least in the parts Of the eoun-
try where the rainfall is hardly suf-=
ficient for the ordinary crops. Late
planting is advocated by many grow
ers, as this gives the crop a good start
of the weeds. Farmers that have corn,
kafir corn and SOFA beans, usually
plant the Indian corn first, then the
Kafir corn and lastly the sofa beans.
The land is sufficiently warm by that
time to respond quickly However,
the planting should be early enough to
permit the crop to receive moisture
from the rains that fall in the fore
part of the summer, unless the ground
is saturated with water sufficiently to
supply moisture for some time to
come.

Immediate Care of Plants.

If we wish to move a plant, shrub
or evergreen to some other place on
our grounds, we use the greatest care
to take up as many as possible of the
lbrous roots, carrying with them a
considerable amount of earth to en-
sure a greater number of rootlets be-
ing in an upbroken condition, choos-
ing If possible a time when the soil
is moist, that earth and roots may re-
ceive as little disturbance as possible.
If we see our plant roots bristling with
little white feeding rootlets we have
more hope of the future results. And
yet the carnation grower desires to re-
move his plants when all the dirt will
fall off.
We must carefully consider the con-
dition of our plants when received and
at time of planting. They may have
been so packed as to give us foliage
bright and fresh in appearance, but
with ROOTS dry and 1eafless. We must
then put them in a cool place, dampen
the roots and sprinkle freely with
fresh soil, examining il + few hours
and cutting away dead PORTIONS, for
new roots can only come from those
that are alive. In the meantime we
must prevent willing of the plant, ii
we do not wish to sacrifice any Of its
present growth. Sometimes the nurs-
eryman packs so loosely that nearly
all is dry; or else he packs SO closely
that decay has set in, when our knife
must stop the decay. II trees or
shrubs are large it is impossible TO
grow them with any amount OF fine
roots so they can be packed safely 10

AimIess Breeding of Horses.

It is a fact we'll established that
much of the breeding by our farmers is.
aimless. Horses are bred and fed TO
a marketable age, only to be sold at
low price on account Of coming under
no particular class. Before starting to-
breed, farmer should make study
as to the classifcations for horses
in the market and strive to make
his product correspond to some one
of the classes. That is, il he means
to breed with the idea of selling. II
he wants only farm horse the object
for breeding according to the CLASH
fcation is not so great. But most
farmers like to have a horse they can
either keep or sell as best suits their
needs. Even in the production OF
horses for farm work there should be
well-defned aim. One horse Is
worth very, much more than another
hosre on the farm. The fast stopper
is infinitely superior to the slow plod-
der The breeding of any kind of
mare to any kind Of a stallion should
stop. Select both parents with care,
and consider the mutual effect of the
one on the other.

though one ot tho largest and most
widely distributed trees ii the Pacific
northwest, Il suffers from the preju-
dice against the eastern hemlock. Q
closely allied, but much Inferior
species, and for this reason has almost
no commercial value. 1t grows at its
best on the cool damp slopes Of the
Washington and Oregon curtains,
where tits frequently zoo feet high and
10 feet in diameter, or even largerr u
favorable situations. It occasionally
forms dense, pure forest, but is more
often mixed with Red Fir, the most
important timber tree OF the north
west, and is usually left standing BY
the lumbermen because there is no
sale for the lumber. The wood OF the
western hemlock is less apt to pc
shaky, is stronger, more durable, ana
more easily worked than that OF the
eastern species. The bark is said to
contain much more tannin, By the
present method of numbering, immense
quantities of hemlock are destroyed
annually, for it is left to be burned Dy
the fires which frequently follow the
removal of the fir. It is believed that
if this hemlock can be given it's true
value before the public, logging meth
DDS may be modified, and even if the
market develops slowly, there will be
greater effort to prevent waste. An
important feature of this investigation
will be to ascertain the rate Of growth
and the time required to produce
merchantable stand. The western hem
lock possesses remarkable powers Of
reproduction and may be counted on
to reforest logged-off areas.

HOrn-Fly Remedies,

During the past year the department
OF entomology Of the Kansas Expert
ment Station made extensive trials Of
a number OF horn-fy traps and repel-
lent mixtures for the purpose of find
ing some means of furnishing protec-
ton to stock from the horn-f1y. at a
reasonable cost. In no cases were the
fy-traps effective, but with the mix
lures more satisfactory results were
obtained. "a
One of the best remedies on the mar
ket, in order to be reasonably effective,
had to be- applied every day, and in
such large quantities as to make cost
of 20 cents for each application to one
cow-a sum greatly exceeding in value
all the benefits derived from the use
OF the mixture. Of a number of rene
dies OF our own compromising that
were tested we have selected one
which for cheapness and effectiveness
seems deserving of more extensive
trial. 1t is not as satisfactory as we
would like it to be, but it is consid-
erably cheaper, as effective and often
more lasting than fish-oil, which in
our opinion is one of the best of the
horn-fy remedies. It is made as fol-
lows: Pulverized resin,s parts, by
MEASURE soap shavings, part; water,
II part; fish-oil, 1 part; oil Of tar, /
part; kerosene, 1 part; water, 8 parts.
Place the resin, soap shavings, u part
of water and fsh-oiI together in a
receptacle and boil till the resin is dis
solved. Then add the parts Of water,
following with the oil of tar mixed
with the Kerosene. Stir the mixture
we'll and allow it to boil for fifteen
| minutes. When cool the mixture is
ready for use, and should be stirred
frequently while being applied. The
mixture costs about 80 cents gallon.
From one-eighth to one-half pint is
sufficient for one application. To apply
the mixture, a brush is essential. We
find nothing more satisfactory than q
large painters brush. AT first it is
well to make, an application for two
or three days in succession. After
ward an application every other day
will suffice. Cows, in standing in
water and mud, running through
| weeds and brush and rubbing against
trees, often remove some Of the mix
ture. In this case lit lis well to re-
touch the unprotected parts. 1t lis
often more economical not to attempt
to protect the entire animal, but only

It Is important that The practical
feeder be able to determine when
lambs are properly finished and IN theI
most satisfactory and profitable con-!
dition for the market. This IL notII
always an easy task; experienced feed
sers are sometimes deceived AS an add
in studying this matter, the following
directions, prepared by Prof. John Al
Craig OF the animal husbandry de-.
partment OF the Iowa Agricultural COLI
lege, for the instruction OF students,l
are OF interest: When put into thel
I feed lot under proper conditions, lambs
will usually begin to show the infiu-
ence of good feeding at the end Of the:
third or fourth week. During this
time they seem to be simply getting:
into good condition to put on flesh,
though it appears that some flesh is
being deposited internally. Toward
the end of that time many Of the
lambs may be noticed standing lels-
urely in the sun in a partially
stretched posture. This pose in the
lambs is a delight to the shepherd.
The fattening process seems to extend
from the internal regions, and is first
In evidence at the tail. It then passes
along the back over the shoulder and
reaches the neck; from this line 1t
seems to extend down the sides and
over the breast in front. There are
six main points at which its extension
seems most in evidence-at the tall,
rnidd1o If tho hack the neck the.
flank, the purse and the breast.
