they may be opened or closed like the
roof of the shed first described.
The tents are only made to protect
single trees, and an orchard thus COW
cred looks from a distance like mill
tary encampment. One form of tent
is part wood and part cloth. -Four
posts of pine are fastened in the
ground, upholding framework on
which boards are nailed. Below the
stationary framework Is another which
slides up and down the outside of the
posts, which are placed outside the
tree to be protected. Between the
movable and the stationary frame
work are tackled strips of cloth, sewed
together and covered with mixture
of paraffin or other solution to pro-
tect it from the action Of the weather.
When the tent is opened the cloth is
neatly tucked In place between the
framework at the top, resembling an
accordion when shut up. By pulling
a small cord the movable framework Is
released and drops to the ground,
completely covering the tree. At dis
tance of 100 feet it looks like an ordin-
ary wooden shed. The round tent
commonly used is supported on
framework like the ribs of an umbrel-
la; but instead of the centre stick be-
ing straight it is composed VT two
pieces. and near the top of the tree it.
self an arm projects inwardly at an
angle. The main stick is composed
of a post about three inches square,
planted to depth of several feet in
the ground. The end of the "tent" is
fastened to it by large tacks, and the
ribs which hold the cloth in place
when the tent Is spread are made of
light wooden strips fastened to the
material in the same way, at intervals
OF from one foot to two feet, accord
ing to it's size. Around the tree is
placed 4 hoop Of hardwood firmly
braced, which answers to the wires

BUTTER IN BRICKS.
Rapid Production of Attractive One or
Two Pound Blocks.

Two Pound Blocks.
Grocers and other retailers of but
ter buy good deal of that commodi-
ty by the tub, and sell it in small
quantities. In order to save time
when several customers are wait
ing, it will be an advantage to have
the stuff cut up in advance into one
or two pound bricks. Anticipating n
rush, many grocers put sugar and tea
up in ready-made Parcels. But each
lot is carefully weighed out uy itself.
An ingenious Western inventor has
thought of a way to cut a tub of but
ter up into blocks on the wholesale
plan.
For this work machine is used, n
part Of which is shown in the draw
ing. The frame holding the cross
wire can be slipped up and down and
entir, ~ removed from the uprights.
This is done at the beginning of the
operations. A tub of butter is turned
out on the criss-cross wooden block,
pains being taken to keep it square
and even. Then on one of the corner
posts is temporarily hinged three hor-
izontal wires tightly stretched one
above the other. BY swinging this
frame sideways slowly and steadily
the wires will cut the mass of butter
into four layers. The uppermost is
very thin and doesn't count. The others
are of uniform thickness. The first
cut is now detached from the machine

and the growers were able to start
them again by cutting the trunk of the
tree down to few inches from the
ground. The destruction was terrible.
Entire groves. ranging from fifty to
100 acres in extent, We're taken up by
the roots, burned and the ashes used
to fertilize slips from which new or

Various plans have since been ar
ranged to protect. the groves from cold
weather, and, - result, the visitor
to Florida in January can ride hun
dred miles through orange groves

Cutlery For Lunatics.

Cutlery for lunatics was recently
advertised for by the British Admir-
atty office, and it brought to light
some unusual cutlery that while made
regularly in Sheffield for the past
twenty years or more is but little
known. The illustrations represent
two types of knives and one type of
fork. The knives have perfuctly dull,
Republican news item. [volume] (Laport, Pa.) 1896-19??, 1901-07-11

round blades, with small cutting
area about an inch long, situated in
such way that it cannot be used ex--
cept for the purpose intended. The
fork terminates in small round ball,
on which there are three prongs about
half an inch long. The idea in this
unique cutlery, of course, was to de-
wise knives and forks that could not
be used as instruments of attack upon
attendants, nor for self humiliation.

carefully covered by tents. Not only
are they protected by cloth and wood,
but heat in various forms is also pro-
vided to keep the air warm enough, so
that the growing fruit, as we'll as the
smaller branches, will remain unin-
jured. The houses, or sheds, cover
from an acre't to forty acres of ground.

THE MARKETS.

fRuITS.-This has been record break
ing season in the line OF fruits among
the farmers. Good prices have pre-
vailed. Apples are now selling at GO
cents per box, peaches at 40 and pears
and prunes range from 40 cents to 60
cents. Winter apples will be high,
dollar box being already quoted, and
1t Is said by some dealers that before
the middle OF winter 80 will be ruling
price. The shipments Of fruit to the
Sound have been averaging two cars a
day, and to the east from two to three
cars have been sent out this week. The
eastern shipments in bulk have been
mostly prunes, which go to st. Paul and
other cities. Early Crawford peache.
will soon be all harvested and the late
Crawfords will be in soon. Simcoe has
been sending a large quantity OF fruit to
the sound cities this week, most Of it be-
ing raised in Parker Bottom and around
Iillah
PoTAToEs.-Potatocs are still ruling
high and are likely to continue. Tween
ty dollars per ton is being readily paid
by shippers, and it is thought that before
a great while $50 will be commanded.
The high price of potatoes is the result
OF the scarcity Of the tuber in the east
this year. Shipments have been aver
aging about five cars a day. Owing to d
scarcity in cars the shipments have been
kept down. The Yakima product is
finer this year than ever before and the
yield has been wonderful. Ten dollars
per ton has been the ruling price in pre-
vious years, and the $40 advance means
a nice pickup to the farmer
MELoNs.-The melon crop is large thi.
year with big demand, Good prices
have been received right along. The
crop will last till near the end 81 the
month.

So nearly eighteen years were taken in placing the first fifty vessels Sn the upper river. A very different chapter in Congo history has been written in the pas. two years, since the opening of the railroad from Matadl to Stanley Pool. Within the past twenty -four months half of the upper Congo fleet of fifty vessels have been carried to the Pool on cars. While n month was res quired to carry the earlier boats over the mountains and down Into the val ieys along the 235 miles between the lower Congo and the Pool. an entire boat is now carried over the route in two days. Thus the railroad has facil- i,ated placing steamers on the upper river: and now both railroad and steam vessels are working together in the commercial expansion of the coun- try.
