SORGHUM As A FORAGE CROP.

SOANGAAN VI AS a FOhAOE CROP.
At recent farmers institute which
the writer attended the question of the
value Of sorghum as a forage crop was
very thoroughly discussed. The fol
lowing facts with reference to this
crop were brought out: 1t should be
sown broadcast at the rate Of 100
pounds of seed to the acre about the
middle of June; it should be allowed to
stand uncut well into October. the first
frosts not doing the crop any damage:
it should then he cut and allowed to lie
as cut for ten days, rains not damag-
ing it; it should then be raked uD and
put in piles Of 600 or 700 pounds each
and remain in the cock until wanted
for feeding during the winter. 1t nev
er dries out as does hay. but remains
green. juicy and succulent all winter
and is greatly relished by all kinds of
stock. 1t becomes a good substitute
for ensilage, produces an enormous
amount Of feed on a small area, but AT

LARGEST WATER WORKS.
Boston to Possess the Greatest Reser-
 voir in the World.

Operations are in progress today
 near Boston which will ultimately give to that city the proud distinction of possessing the greatest reservoir of pure drinking water in the world.
 Moreover when present plans have been realized. Boston can safely claim that she has accomplished more has looked farther into the future and has had a stronger regard for the health and welfare of her citizens than any other city either in this country or abroad These are strong words, but they are amply borne out by facts.
 Few people, even those in and about Boston. realize the enormous extent Of the new water works system inaugu- rated in 1895, and now well on toward completion. They know that a law was
 passed five years ago placing the existing system in the hands of a com mission called the metropolitan water board. and that something is being
 done to bring water from the Yi- cinity of Clinton Mass, but the true condition of affairs is practically un- known. It will surprise even those who should be personally interested to learn
 that within half a decade the greatest reservoir ever built will be in operation within thirty-two miles of Boston.
 It will be even greater surprise for them to learn that when the system nsw under construction is finished, not only Boston, but also the cities or Chelsea, Everett. Bedford, Maiden, Newton, and Somervi!le, and the towns of Belmont, Hyde Park Melrose, Re- we're. Watertown and Winthrop, consu- tuting what is known as the metropol- itan water district, will be kept amply
 supplied with water, notwithstanding the natural increase in population, until 1850. It is this half century step into the future that will give Boston the well earned reputation of providing for her
 people according to her honest needs and their deserts.
 The magnitude of the new water
 works system is impressive. It will in- clude. as stated before. the largest res
 ervoir for portable water in the world a great aqueduct and a system of distrl- button constructed on modern princi- Iples. To prove the gigantic nature or Ithe reservoir it is only necessary to state that it's capacity will reach the enormous extent of 63.06S, ,00O 900 gal lions. or almost twice as much as the new Croton reservoir near New 1ork City. The building of this reservoir means the flooding of a valley thirty | two miles from Boston, the complete or ! partial submersion of two thriving towns and the changing of a well
 known railways right of way through | the valley. The increased supply oi
 water to be derived from the metro
 politan district will be better under

But that has become an obsolete GUS tom and the B. P. O. Elks, Phoenix lodge No 3S5, has adopted a more up- to-date method of saying what it has to say in straight English.

He has a business to look after here in town and he cannot afford to spend all his time on the road.

gate and emptied the milk bucket. The next night he resolved to be more vigil lant and put in the weary hours pacing from the front gate to the alley. That night they caught him going and com ing. While he was in the rear of the house some wretch got the milk, and while he was in front swearing about it a raid was made on the woodpile.
 The family is now subsisting on bread, butter and condensed milk and making it's coffee over a gas jet. The husband says he will starve out the thieves if he has to reduce himself and wife to skeletons to do it. If he fails in this, he will break up housekeeping and send his wife back to her mother.
