Trees for Shade,

communication from the Oklahoma
station says: The trees most generally
planted have been elm, soft maple. ca
talpa, black locust and box elder. The
elm grows slowly at first and is at
tackled by borers, but is the best shade
tree in the list and should be included
in every planting for shade. The soft
maple is easily broken by the wind and
suffers from drouth and the attacks of
borers, but it grows rapidly from the
start and makes a pretty tree. The
limbs Of the catalpa tree are easily
broken by the winds, but it grows rap
idly, makes fair shade and is valuable
timber, for posts. The black locust is
not generally regarded as a tirst-class
shade tree and its tendency to sprout
from the roots makes it somewhat OBJ
jectionable on lawns. But it is the
fastest grower in the list, will stand
more neglect than the others, and the
wood is very durable for posts. The
box elder is moderate grower and is
not adapted to poor upland soil, though
it does we'll in favored locations. The
ash and sycamore are good trees, but
are not adapted to as wide a range OF
soils as the others.

Teaching Florticu,ture.

While at the Kansas Agricultural
College lately the writer had the pleas
.ure of talking with Mr.. Baxter. who
has charge of the greenhouses there.
Mr.. Baxter is perhaps the only man in
the country who occupies the double
position of manager Of greenhouses
and instructor in Horticulture. At the
college are 400 young ladies, most Of
whom are taking the domestic science
course. Several times a week classes
60 to the greenhouses and are there in
structed in the science Of cultivating
and caring for flowers. The future
homes Of these girls will show the ef-
fects Of this teaching. Where there
are greenhouses under the charge of
competent foriculturists the latter
might be used as instructors not only
in our colleges, but also in many of our
common schools. Probably all advanced
educational institutions have green.
houses connected with them, and this
opens up large field for demonstra.
ton in this art

Honest Packing,

From Farmers Review: Would ad.
wise all growers Of small fruit to put
their fruit UP In new cases and
to be honest in their packing;
that is, have fruit run uniform
In quality and give good meas
ure. The trade here discrimin-
ates against the use Of, secondhand
packages and against short measure.
re an article is number one the best
trade is always In the market to buy.
We would further suggest that II
grower intends to remain In the busi-
ness 1t will be to his advantage to use
eome particular brand for his number
one fruit. Buyers, after finding that
some particular line Of fruit gives sat
isfaction to their. trade will In the ma
|torlty Of cases leave standing orders
Tor same, the price under the, circum-
stances being Of secondary .congid era-

burning Heat.

Star City, Ark. May 26th.-A very
remarka BILE case has just occurred here.
Mr.. w H. McFalls has been suffering
severely for two years with an ailment
that puzzled the doctors and every
body. The trouble seemed to be all IN
his head, which had a burning sensa-
ton all the time.
Sometimes this burning pain In tho
head would be worse than at oeher
times, but 1t never left him.
At last he tried a new remedy called
Dodd's Kidney Pills, and was agreeably
surprised to find that the burning grad
ually disappeared.
( An attack Of La Grippe has laid him
UP for the last few weeks, but Dodd's
Kidney Pills have banished his old
trouble entirely. !:
His son, George Used q few Of the
Pills which his father did not need, and
they have done him so much good that
he says he would not take ten dollars
pill for the few be still has left.

ODD OCCUPATION.
Professor of Being Buried Alive Tes
fles in a Courtroom.

Professor of Being buried Alive Testi-
fes in Courtroom.
One of the witnesses in recent law
suit in Cleveland was Edward Kaehn.
The Cleveland Leader says: "The ex-
animation of Kaehn proved to be very
amusing. On the cross-exarnination
Prosecutor Keller demanded to know
the business Of the witness. The wit
ness said that he lived at 1926 Lake
street, and was known as Prof. James
Smith, and that his speciality was be-
ing buried alive for exhibition pur-
poses. He declared that he never had
really died. but claimed that he could
lie in grave six days and nights. He
averred that he was ready at any time
to be buried for $500 per week, provid-
ing that there was proper and an un-
mistakably trustworthy committee to
play the role OF resurrection angels
should they be needed to save his life.
He was rather reluctant about tipping
on his act as he expressed 1t, but
Judge Neff became interested and
wanted to hear all about 1t. Kaehn
declared that he has been placed in a
coffin which had been properly uphol-
stored, and that 1t has been lowered
into a grave 6 feet 4 inches deep. An
air shaft is constructed and the grave
closed.
What is the air shaft for?' asked
the prosecutor. b
For air. replied Kaehn, and fol
sending down the beer, water and
| grub
