JUMP IN THE PRICE OF CANS.

The statement made by prominent
canned goods broker several weeks ago
that the packers had no longer any guar
antee that the price of tin cans would re-
main unchanged any length of time is
proved by the announcement from New
York of an advance in the price ofcans by
the American Can Company, or tin can
combine" The price of cans is now so
cents per ZOO higher than it has been for
the last month, although it was then
considerably above the price of last fall.
As result of action by the Can Trust
magnates at New York the following cir
cular, under date of April II, has been
issued from the Baltimore office of the
company.
Following are today's prices on cans
for shipment in carload lots:

are f. o. b. Baltimore and are subject to
change without notice. Will make prices
on special sizes upon application. Gases

The local officials of the American Can
Company did not attempt to explain the
rise in price, except that one of them said
that there was scarcity of tin plate and
that might have caused the advance. He
also said that while the price ofcans was
higher than it had been during the last
few weeks it was not as high as it was
last spring.-SUN.

PLANT MORE TREES.
Sections where Timber Is Scarce
suffer More from Drought Than
Wooded Regions.

More even distribution OF the for
est growth over farming sections is
needed, for as it now is the forest
growth in mountains and other Sec
tions is unfit for agricultural pur
poses. The sections best adapted to
farming are largely void of trees. In
time of drought the sections which
suffer most severely are those where
timber is most scarce. Southern In
diana. which has been cleared too
much, years ago when there was still
much timber standing. produced far
better crops than now. Rains were
then much better distributed through
the growing season and showers were
frequent and mild, but now rain too
often falls in heavy, sudden down
pours, often doing damage to growing
crops. These severe rains are usual
ly followed by hard winds that soon
dry the moisture from th" land in
the growing season, and in winter
the wind having uninterrupted sweep
drifts the snow in great banks along
fences and leaves wheat fields bare.
We cannot undo the harm done by
too excessive clearing, but one can
improve matters by planting trees in
shelter belts on the south and west
sides of our farms. For Il perpetual
wind-break. the Norway spruce un-
doubtedly leads. A good shelter bell;
should contain four rows of spruce,
ten feet between rows and trees five
feet apart in the rows, and the trees
placed so as to break the spaces be-
tween rows. Spruce seedlings can be
got from nurseries when about ten
inches high for about three dollars per
hundred. Be very careful in moving
evergreens not to let the roots get
dry, as this means certain death to
the tree. Robert Killins, in Farm
and Home.

The recent celebration of the one

capital recalls the description of it's

SO from the Atlantic to Fort Pitt, is
by far the most eligible situation for

Deem Planting OF Trees.

1t is the general experience that
deep planting is harmful and con-
trary to nature. Trees that are
planted deeper than they stood in
the nursery row will make vigorous
growth for few years, as the wood
covered will send out roots, but the
old roots make no growth, finally de-
cay, and sometimes cause the whole
tree to die. We consider it very i'm
portant that trees should not be
planted deeper than they stood in the
nursery row. In planting straight
sticks, by the Springfellow method,
with the lateral roots all taken off,
the trees may be set several inches
deeper than they stood in the nur-
sergio. A. Atwood, in Farmers
Voice. ...-..---

A near as / can remember. there
has been a hydraulic ram on this farm
for 80 years. The first ram put in was
used to force water to watering
trough in front of the buildings and
also through pipe leading to the
kitchen OF the main house. For the
past 16 years, the time we have lived
here, it has been greatly changed and
we have furnished water to every
building on the place. Water is sup
piled on every floor, including bath

the attic holds 600 gallons. The pres

ry the water anywhere needed. The
sketch shows the arrangement of the
system.
About six or seven years ago, during
a very dry spell, the water in the
reservoir became very low and the
old rsm afforded us considerable an
noyance on account of there being
only oae stroke. which neceSSitated rs
much supply water at one time as an
other. therefore we had to keep the
ram turned off until the water was
needed in some of the buildings.
About that time at the C.uuty fair,
happened to see another hydraulic ram
which looked so simple. and having a
governor to regulate the strokes in
pumping. which means everything
when the reservoir is tttng low, that
l purchased one and 7 seed ii in posi-.
tion and have had no tr.d e since.
On one occasion in particular its use
fulness was very prominent. a fire
originated in the bottle department
of my dairy, between the inner and
outer sidings, which was impossible to
reach without the use of thrown
stream, but by breaking little Of the
outer siding and inserting the nozzle
of the hose the fire was overcome in a
very short time, thus saving every
building on the place, which otherwise
would have surely burned IT w

''"' in entering the
plea of hypnotism as defense against
criminal charges. At Red Bud. H., a
young man de.iverately killed Another
young man, aftef previously express
ing his intention of "killing him on
sight" He then gave himself up, and
pleaded that he had killed his victim
because the latter - had "hypnotized
him to his detriment." The prisoner
was acquitted by the coroner's jury,
apparently without any hesitation.
This instance shows the dangerous
hold" says the Medical Journal, "that
the notion Of hypnotism, as comforting
an immunity from responsibility, has
taken upon the people at large, from
whom juries are drawn" \ ajority
of the authorities on such matters take
the position that hypnotism cannot
compel a person to he performance OF
any act otherwise morally impossible
