Shade Trees.

Those who failed to set out shade trees
during the ia should PREPARE now to do
sc in the spring. At the Oklahoma Ex-
pertinent station, in one experiment on
hard soil, the following method result
ed successfully: Holes 8 feet in diam
cter and 3 feet deep were dug in the
early winter and allowed to remain open
so that the soil could weather and be-
GENE Gem porous. In February, three fork
fuls of well-rotted manure were nut in
the bottoms Of the holes and on tor of
tn this two shovelfuls of leached ashes.
This was then covered with surface soil
ana the holes filed in to within about a
foot Of the top. This was then allowed
to settle and become firm before the
trees were set. The trees were set ont
in March and the soil within 3 feet Of
the trees was hoed after every rain DIR
ing the summer. Naples and iocusts
We're planted and they made a vigorous
and rapid growth. While this method is
perhaps too expensive to be used for ex-
>tcnslve planting, it is recommended for
use IN towns and about the house and
lawn, Whatever method of planting is
followed, little success will follow unless
the soil is thoroughly cultivated and the
SURFACE . Kept free from grass and weeds.

Hospital Steward James A. Saurbaugh,
who went to the Philippines an anti-expan-
sionist and who has now become convinced
of the wisdom of the administration course,
as shown in letter of felicitation to Con-
gresham George A. Pearre is but one of
hundreds of individuals whose views on the
Philippine question have changed by reason
of visit to the sland.-Cumberand AemS.
Jimmie" is good boy, so complete
" open to conviction that if he would
come home now and take the editor of
the NcwS down into the darkest Africa
of North Carolina and view the political
social landscape where the nameless
crime under unrestricted enfranchise-
ment would be disposed of judicially by
the race that commits it, both would
doubtless return with changed minds.
The JOURNAL is not sure of this, how
ever, as the interest Of party these days
is the imperial consideration.
If the welfare of the party required
that in any given section hOrsethieves
should elect a horse-thief sheriff to ar
rest horse thieves for trial by jury of
horse-thicves before a horse thief judge,
the whole business would just have to

The Churchman'S Ready Reference,

On the 10Th inst a book will be issued by
the Young Churchman Co., of Mil
waukee, Wis, from the pen of Rev. A C.
Haverstick, of this place, written during
his leisure moments. 1t is entitled
1.-The Churchman'S Ready Reference"
1t is largely the result of his experience
among all classes. People of fair intel
igence are ignorant of the simplest mat
tiers. They often imagine they know all
that is worth knowing about the Church,
or that it is immaterial whether they
know or not. Hence, they easily fall
victims to every wind of doctrine"
The book has put all this information in
an attractive and simple form so that it
will not weary. Every intelligent
Churchman should, as st. Peter says,
"be ready always to give an answer to
every man that asketh you Il reason of
the hope that is i'll you with mcckness
and fear
Some of its contents are of interest to
the general reader, such rs the proofs of
religion and Christianity, the origin,
history and authenticity of the Bible, a
sketch of general Church history, an ex-
PLANTATION of some theological terms i'll
popular language, the substitutes for
Christianity, and Il short biography of
the principal early Christian fathers and
writers.
The Churchman will find history of
the Church of England, and i'll the
United States, the reason for. history
and origin of the Prayer Book, and the
Church year. Church art and symbolism,
explanation of the Sacraments and Rites
of the Church the variations i'll public
worship seen i'll many congregations who
all use the same Prayer Book, the
ministry, and why we differ from other
Christians.
The book has yet to run the gauntlet
of the critics. Bishop Coleman read it,
revised it, and then wrote an introduce
ton to it. An editor of one of the large
Church weeklies says of it in his paper
This will be found most useful manual
for lay people, giving them in short, readable
paragraphs those bits of information about
the Church, historical, doctrinal and prac-
teal, which ought to be in the possession
of all Churchmen. 1t is essentially lay
mans book.
The above is taken from the st. Johns
Record for October.

English as She is Wrote.

An Irishman named Magoon wrote an
article sometime ago which he entitled
"Westward," not Western, Empire, i'll
which he stated with immense eloquence
this observation:
If we trace the march of scientific knowl-
edge through the dense strata of departed
ages to its root, it will doubtless be found in
the remote East, while all prolific growth is
toward the West.
This Outdoes the Gic0nrr's idea that to
make the direction of the act of climb
ing plain, the little word, cup" must
follow.
Magoon finds that ''the march of
scientific knowledge" is not only down
but it is through the dense strata of
departed ages to its root" Still not only
so-MaSoon evidently believed that
down is east and that all prolific
growth does not grow cup" but ''to-
ward the west
After all, it is pretty close competition
between the GIpdnrr and Magoon.
