to Animals.
Botanlsts OF recognized repute are OF
the opinion. and support their views
by lncontrovertible facts. that sleep Ia
an absolute necessity for flowers. plants
and trees. A well-known botanist who
has been investigating the causes
which rotard the growth OF trees and
flowers In cities mas laid especial stress
upon the fact that the main reason
that they do not flourish as they do in
the country is that they are kept
awake too much at night. The smoke
and dust, OF course. have something
TO do with IT, but one OF the principal
causes Of their lack OF yigor is want
OF proper sleep. All forms OF yegeta-
BILE life must, at regular intervals. be
allowed TO relapse into condition OF
repose or some radical change will re-
suit in the form OF the plant. A gera-
mum cannot be out all night with the
larkspur and look bright and fresh the
next morning. Neither can the fr tree

 The increase in the number of pen sioners will reduce the small amount that each old soldier now receives. The State levies a tax of one mil for the old soldiers. The total amount received from this special tax last veal was $2i4, ,fS3.11. This amount was divid- cd among 11.224 pensions. This yea! there will be- some increase in the amount received from the special tax but 1t will be divided up by longer division.
 Auditor Sowell is unable to tell hoi much will be realized from the one mil tax this year but he is inclined to think that there will be reduction in ths amount each. pensIoner will receive. Last year the pensioners were di- vided into four classes. Class one num bered 10l and each pensioner got S42.55 Glass two numbered 145 and each. pen < eioner received $35.46. Class three nnm bered 175 and each pensioner received 32s. .37. Class four numbered 10.S03 anC each peusioner received $21.27.
