SHRINKAGE OF GRAIN.
Results of Elaborate Experiments at Various Experiment Stations
 Prove Instructive.

Wheat fluctuates in weight accord ing to the dryness of the air. The extent of this variation under ordi- nary conditions does not exceed six per cent, but where the grain is taken from an intensely dry climate to comparatively damp one the gain may amount to 25 per cent. Oats stored in the fall lost in one instance over three per cent. by the following May, less than two per cent. in the second instance and exactly two per cent. in the third, and in the fourth lost but seven pounds in 100 bushels. Corn, when the entire plant is stored in the silo, suffers very considerable loss in weight. As an average of four tests this loss amounted to 8.32 per
 cent. In other eases the loss varies
 from 14.57 to 20.36 per cent. When the entire plant is cured in the field
 subsequent variations in weight are
 determined by the dryness of the air. At the Connecticut station, where
 27.36 tons of corn were cut Septem-
 Der 1 into shocks, hauled to the barn
 later and stored for fodder, the gross
 weight was but AS tons. On Febru-
 ary following the weight was 75 tons. In duplicate test 25.5 tons of
 green corn weighed but 5.2 tons on November Il and gained to S.5 tons
 by February 8. When the corn is
 husked in the field the loss of weight
 suffered by the ears depends on their
 condition when hauled to the crib.
 Very damp corn cribbed early in Oc- tober shrank in weight 30 per cent
 by the middle of February, while dry
 corn cribbed October 21 had shrunk by the last of January Il per cent.
 Ia another case corn very dry when hauled shrunk by New Years less | than three per cent. At the Iowa sta tion the loss in an entire year was 20 | per cent. in one case and nine per
 cent. in another. The relation be- tween the weights of kernels and cob does not stay constant as the ears | dry. When first husked fully 25 per | cent. of the weight of the ears lies
 in the cob. By spring less than 20 per cent. of the weight of the ear is in the cob. An elaborate set of ex- periments at Houghton farm showed that the shelled corn lost in weight | but about 7.45 per cent. from Octo-
 Der to March, while the cobs lost | fully 36 per cent.-D. c. Smith, Mich | igan Station, in Prairie Farmer.

Mysteries of the Soil.

The mysteries locked up in the soil are only slowly being made plain. Year by year, decade by decade, cen tury by century, the work goes on. In all civilized lands are scientists applying themselves to the problems. Chemists, botanists, biologists and geologists all find in this quarter room enough for their labors. And the farmer has need of all this kind of help he can get. To nearly every cultivator of the soil to-day, as in the past, the thing he cultivates is an un- known factor. He knows it is sandy or clayey, wet or dry, rich or poor, but those things are but the begin ming of wisdom.

How Plants Absorb Water

Water is absorbed by the roots and undergoes a very slight change; matter from the cells of the tree is added Gas sugar, in the maple) and it is then denominated "sap." It passes from cell to cell upwards, through the sap-wood, until itreaches the leaves. The cells being separate, and not continuous tubes, it is con- veyed from one to another through a great number of partitions; in the basswood, for example, where the cells are very long, it passes about 2,OOC partitions in rising a foot.- Farmers Review.

MOSQUITOES AND PRO-
GRESS.

DR.. Edwin GladmOn ex.
presses the opinion that the
presence Of mosquitoes this
summer is largely due to the
fact that the introduction and
general use of city water has
caused the abandonment OF
many wells, which are now
allowed to stand unused,
causing the water in them to
become stagnant. Mosqui.
toes, as is we'll known, breed
only on the surface of stand.
ing water when it becomes
stagnant; for this reason,
when the local wells we're
kept in constant use, mosqui.
toes were very scarce. DR..
Gladmon approves of the use
of plenty of crude petroleum
or kerosene, on these stag.
nant wells; and he also sug
gests that filling up the wells
would be advisa BILE. Anoth-
er plan is to place a platform
or false floor in the we'll,
about'two or three feet below
the level Of the ground and
cover, or fill up, with sand or

latter plan is suggested only
as an experiment in lieu of

EDITORIAL NOTES.
FRUIT GROWERS AND THE
EXPRESS COMPANY.

The fruit grower, the trans.
portation companies and the
commission merchants are
just now occupying the at
tention of the business public
in this section. One of our
fruit shippers in another COL
umn charges the express COM
pany with willful destruction
of his peaches by roughly
handling them at the South
ern Pines station, and a Bos.
ton commission house writes
that, in their opinion, the
fruit was damaged by being
handled like iron" when
loaded.
For the purpose Of being
fair to all concerned, we pub.
fish Mr.. Huttenhauer's state
ment making the charge di-
rect that the fault rests alone
with the express company and
their method Of handling at
this end of the line, and in so
doing we wish to ascertain, if
possible, whether or not the
express company and their
agent at this place purposely,
or through carelessness, allow
the fruit given them for ship
ment, to be smashed into
preserves before delivering it
to the consignee.
If the fact that a shipment
of fruit is delivered in had
order" and the cause therefor
can so readily be determined,
we blieve the express compa-
ny has interest enough in our
fruit growing industry to at
once apply the remedy, and
refuse to allow the destruc
ton Of fruit given them for
shipment, the transportation
of which yields a fair profit.

The fact that many Of the leading
women OF Philadelphis gamble in
stocks was a fact brought out by the
failure there recently of . big firm
of stock brokers. The women who
were losers by their. collapse have.
thronged the Offices of the assignee

some advantageous arrangement of
their unfortunate Investments. As q
rule, the women were well dressed
In years they had reached or passed
middle life. While in appearance they
seemed to be. shrewd, womanlike,
scarcely one of them was able to
comprehend how Howard. Crosby G.
Go. should not drop around and make
good every investment made on the
board, says an eastern exchange.
They had been slipping into this
Chestnut street Office for months to
gamble on the market. The habit
seemed to have a wonderful hold on
them. AS rule, their custom was
to drop into the Office each day and
examine the board, iounging idly
about and following the musical
click Of the sounder.
After comparing the quotations
with those of previous days and
watching the board for a few min
utes the patrons would place their
orders. 1t certain stock would be
20 and advanced two points to 70,
when the women returned on the fol-
lowing day they sold out and studied
the boards for new invetments.
AS a rule, these women spectators
are milliners, dressnlakers OF sales
women. Their purchases varied from
ten dollars up to $50. Seine of them
have been following the business for
months and have made money Scarce
ly any of them are losers on invest
ments made previous to two or three
days before the failure.

CITIZEN.


John A. McCandless, father OF the
idea of a monument to the late Presi-
dent Mckinley was interviewed last
evening in regard to the suggestion
contained in the above letter
THE idea of placing the monument
on the grounds of the capitol is an ex-
cellent one, and | may be put down
as in favor of it. When making my
first suggestion | had not considered
that we could probably do the whole
thing here Nv impression was that
the cost would be too great and that
we had best merely assist a fund on
the mainland in the interest of mon
ument at the National capitol But If
the cost viii not be out of our reach.
l say by all means raise the money
and have the monument established
right here in Honolulu on the capitol
grounds.
Thirty thousand dollars is very
small amour to donate to the memory
of a man who has done so much for
the United States and for the Hawaii
an Islands. 1t seems to be that the
amount should be raised. If the monu-
ment can be instituted for that sum.
I fully agree with the idea of raising
the monument on the grounds of the
capitol and will do all IN my power
to assist the project"
