THIS from the National Rural, Is an
excellent exposition Of the present in
famous currency bill the republicans
propose to fasten upon the country:
when Window OF Minnesota was sec
rotary Of the treasury In 1901 he funded
a large part Of the bonded indebteded-
ness of the United States at two per
cent. payable In coin, These bonds TO-
day are quoted at OF, or above par.
1t is now proposed in the currency DILL
pending in the Senate to fund the
whole of the bond issue extant, includ-
ing these two per cent bonds, the three
per cents, the new four per cents, both
those issued under the Cleveland ad.
minislration and the new Spanish
war issue at two per cent, extending
the time twenty years and making both
principal and interest payable in gold
coin exclusively, AS all of these bonds
now command premium on the mar
ket AS high as thirty-four cents the bill
proposes to pay the bondholder the
amount of this premium in additional
issue Of bonds, For example, the holder
of a $1,000 bond worth on the market
at the present 1914 would receive, pro-
vided the market price dose not change
in the meantime, $l,3lO worth of the
new issue CT bonds in exchange for his
VI 900 bond. 1t is probable, however,
that rs soon as it ia known that this
bill will surely become a law the price
of these bonds will go higher, 80 that
the amount of premium paid in the
new bonds will be thirty four cents.
AS a large part of the bonds are due
In 1904 and could then be paid by the
government at par, and a still larger
part constituting a majority Of the
bonds extant are due IN 1907. the
shrewd hand Of Shylcck may be read
lily detected in this measure. The pre.
MUM ON the bonds so soon due would
gradually diminish until it would be
completely eliminated ut the time of
payment If the bondholder can &c..
cure the amount of that premium as
1t now exists in additional long term
bonds 1t will be a good stroke of linan.

Thirty six hours is long enough for
milk to set, and "a is too long il the
milk clabbers. Cream should be
churned at least every other day in
summer and twice week in winter.
Sixty degrees in summer and 65 to 70
in winter is about the proper tempera.
tares to begin churn'ng, for the warm
air will raise it little in summer and
cool it in winter.
Stop churning when the butter
comes and draw off the milk. 1 like
to wash the butter thoroughly by
whirling the churn, changing waite,
until itruns clear. Work just enough
to mix the salt. The grain then re
mains and the butter is rich, sweet
and tOothsome. Too much working
makes it solid and tallowy and de
stroys the sweet buttery taste.

Upon the fallen tree itself was main.
tanned tenpin alley and reception
room.
The Baptist Church in Santo Rosa
was, with the exception of the arches,
built entirely of lumber secured from
one redwood, and but half of the tree
was used at that. The age of this
giant was estimated at 1900 years.
When one of these big trees gives
up the ghost and falls under a stress
of wind, it goes down like an avalanche
of the Sierras. The ground trembles
and the crash and ruin in it's path
mark tragedy of nature.
The 'Father of the Forest in the
Calaveras grove, which fell not long
ago, had seen thousand years when
the great majority Of its present asso-
ciates were either non-existent or
literally but little larger than mustard
seeds. Its first limbs are 100 feet
from the base, and, with a diameter
of six feet, compare favorably with
the largest trees of the country east
of the Rockies. There are 125 trees
in the lower and upper groves ever
forty feet in circumference. In the
Yosemite National Park, in belt
about two and half miles long by
two miles wide is the next largest
grove of redwood trees. Here are
some 600 trees which would be con.
sidered too large as shade trees for
the broadcast avenue. The largest has
circumference of eighty-one feet
three feet above the earth. 1t is in
many ways the greatest and grandest
forest on the globe.
The big trees are generally wearing
away with time and weather, and
seem to have outlived the age in which
they belonged, so that they will drop
their limbs and topple themselves all
too soon without the vandal's axe to
bring them down. Many of them
show signs of decay, and some are
hollow at the base, though still living,
with the heart gone. In the hollows
of those woodland giants there is fire.

MIA, and the resolution was adopted,
and the Government acquires the
groves.
Some months ago lumberman
bought an option on the ground for
the purpose of cutting down the big
trees and saving them into lumber.
A cry went up in California from the
SHOWS of Mount Shasta to the orange
groves of Los Angeles, to save these
mammoths of the forest. By the eff
forts OF the women of California the
matter was brought before Congress
with the above result.
These are the "sequoia giganteas,
or redwoods that first gave California
her reputation for having the biggest
trees on earth. Through one of them
Concord stage coach may be driven.
The stump of another, thirty feet in
diameter, is used as dancing pavil.
ion.
Redwoods like these tower up 200
feet without limb, ard then burst
out into crown of foliage, rising 100
to 200 feet higher.

Slaughter of HerOns.

The battle wagel by the Audubon
Society against the fashion of wearing
birds feathers and particn' arly the
egret has been so effective as to seri-
ously influence the sale of these bits
of millinery. With view OF meeting
the objection of women to purchasing
these plumes those interested in their
sale have been very successful in their
efforts in circulating the story that
the herons, from which the egrets are
taken, are no longer slaughtered, but
they are regularly farmed for the pur-
pose and the egret gathered up when
cast by the birds.
In all cases which have been inves-
tigated by the American Ornitholo-
gists' Union Committee on Bird Pro-
lection there is absolutely no truth in
the reports.

The Damage to Foliage.

During the droughts and hot days
Of the past parching summer much
damage to foliage was caused upon
certain crops and trees, notably sugar
beets. cauliHowers, cherries and
naples. The leaves OF the sugar
beets went down as though struck by
blight or similar disease, the young
cauliflower plants lost many of their
unfolding tender blades through
parching and death OF their margins,
and cherries and naples in certain To-
calities stood denuded long before
time for foliage to fall. These injuries
occurred soon after days in late sum-
mer when the drought had been long
continued and when hot parching
winds made sudden demand on the
on the plants for more moisture.
That the injury was due to this cause,
excessive Transportation, and not either
to lack of water due to drou yht, or to
disease, has been demonstrated by
the New York agricultural experiment
station.
