TREES DRINK LIKE HORSES
Plan to Irrigate an Orchard by Capillary
Attraction.

AllIdCllOn.
Irritation on the capillary attrac-
ton principle is now being investi-
gated by the state board of horticul-
ture, and the government expert
ment station at Fort Collins, with a
view to recommending it for adop-
tion in this state. Fruit growers, ac-
cording to the Denver Post, who have
experimental with the scheme de-
clare it to be entirely feasible and
much more effective than the old way
of feeding moisture to trees by way
of the roots
Flage Carter, Of Park county, the
first person to try the plan in this
state, wrote Gov. Orman some time
ago, explaining the method ofirrigat-
ing tree by capillary attraction. He
takes a vessel, a pan, or a bucket, or
anything that can be tied to a tree
limb and will hold water. He fills
it with water and then bends a twig
about the circumference of an ordi-
nary lead pencil into the water. The
liquid will be rapidly absorbed by
the twig, and in turn the water will
enter the limb and soon permeate
every part Of the tree The problem
of keeping the vessel supplied with
water is not a difficult one, for the
reason that a half gallon of water will
do as much irrigating as many cubic
inches under the present plan, the
adherents Of the scheme claim.
Capillary attraction is the future
Of orchard irrigation" said the orig
inator of the proposition. Il took
up the matter two years ago, but did
not put it to a final test until this
spring. Then / had two trees that
needed attention badly, and l expert
mented with each One young tree
had been rubbed thoroughly by a
horse and was wilted badly. I APP
piled my method of watering it, and
within one week it completely re-
vived. next treated a sick apple
tree, and now it is all right, thanks
to the capillary attraction principle"

A PICTURE ADDRESS.
Portrait Of Miss Halle E.
Rives on q Postal Found Her

A curiosity reached Bowling
Green today in the shape of a
French postal card, mailed in Par
is, and sent to Miss Halle Ermine
Rives. A kentucky authoress now
a resident of New York, says the
Bowling Green News. What makes
the card a curiosity is the fact that
its face does not bear Miss Rives
name, but was delivered by means
of her portrait on it by French
artist. Below the picture is the
word "New York. So well known
is this Kentucky girl in the north
ern metropolis that the postoffice
authorities recognized thei'picture
and sent the postal card to Miss
Rives. The authoress sent the
card in letter to friend snow re-
siding in Bowling Green, through
whose courtesy it was shown to a
for the News.
Back of this unique postal card
is little story. Miss Rives new
novel, "Hearts Courageous, which
is now making furor in the North,
has a plot which turns upon the
coming of the French fleet to the
aid OF the Americans during the
war of Independence. When the
Countess de Rochambeau, few
weeks ago visited this country in
with the unveiling of the
Rochambeau monument in Wash
ington, she read this novel and sent
for Miss Rives to visit her at her
apartments in the Waldorf Astoria
hotel in New York. A friendship
spraug up between them and when
the countess sailed for home, she
carried an Autographed copy of
''Hearts Courageous" for the presi-
dent of the French republic.
The story was written up widely
in theaFrench newspapers upon the
countess return The "Figaro"
published Miss Rives portrait,
as the author Of "Hearts Coura-
geous, but did not give her name.
The Figaro's picture met the eye of
the French painter, Leon Monca'
peau, who wished to ssecure the
novel from America, but knew not
whom to address as its author
Hence the postal card, written by
him in French, whose only address
is Miss Rives painted picture.
81 hope that my portrait of you
(the translation of the card reads),
''copied after that in the Figaro,
will serve as an address in Ameri-
"a, where without doubt, your face
will be recognized Immediately by
he gentlemen ofthe postal bureau.
Miss RiYes was so struck by the |
nger uity of her French correspond
Mt that she sent him a copy OF
Courageous.

MUSKRATS.
Steal Costly Tobacco in Connecticut to
Build Their Winter Home.

ohAAA 4 hSAA AnA4A AOAnO~
AT the time when the government
is encouraging Connecticut valley
farmers to grow tobacco under cloth
and get So a pound for it, a new en-
emy to the crop has appeared, but ap-
parently it has no use for the old
fashioned tobacco. Clark Brothers,
of Poquonock, are the first to solve
the mystery Of his identity. Part Of
their valuable crop is near the Farm
ington river, and they found each
morning that rows next to the stream
had been cut off clean and taken
away
In all over 800 fine plants had dis
appeared when Michael Leamy was
appealed to for aid. He set large
trap and the next morning found a
muskrat in it. These animals gnawed
off the plant and swan with them to
an island in the river, where they are
building a winter mansion.
Flags, grass and sticks are the us
ual material, but high-class tobacco
apparently suits muskrats better,
Other farmers now surround theiI
fields with traps.-N. Y. Herald.

HIS LAST HOPE REALIZED.
(F'rom the Sentinel, Gebo, Mont)

(F'rom the Sentinel, Gebo, Mont)
 In the first opening of Oklahoma to settlers in 1889, the editor of this paper was among the many seekers after for tune who made the big race one fine day in April. During his travelling about and afterwards his camping upon his claim, he encountered much bad water. which. together with the severe heat, gave him a very severe diarrhoea which it seemed almost im- possible to check, and along in June the case became so bad he expected to die. One day one of his neighbors brought him one small bottle of Cham berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy as a last hope. A big dose was given him while he was rolling about on the ground in great agony, and in q few minutes the dose was .e- peated. The good effect of the medi- cine was soon noticed and within an hour the patient was taking his first sound sleep for a fortnight. That one little bottle worked Q complete cure and he cannot help but feel grateful. The season for bowel disorders being at hand suggests this item. For sale by Elvey & Hulett.

 ''To pronounce the words rip" and ''buttons'' was agony for him. He is now almost cured. Stammering is sometimes the result Of illness affect ing the throat. sometimes an inherit ance or engendered by children mimic ing persons so afflicted. Certain train CTS attempt to cure stammerng by making the patient mark time be- tween utterances. as is done in a music class. l condemn this method as un- graceful and use a successful system of my own.
 Familiarity with the principles of health and the conditions that affect the nerves and muscles of speech Is essential to the voice culturist Indis- tinctness is sometimes due to careless ness or to want of self-confidence CT self-assertion. There are subjects, the roof of whose mouth is too high to promote correct utterance, and they must learn to allow for this defect. Some people, while appreciating the expression that should be given to sen tences. lack control over their mouth muscles. The words come out head long without meditation or emphasis and leave no impression on the lis tener. All faults can be corrected by the exertion of the individual will un- der proper training. An astonishing number of young children have defec- tive voices or tricks of speech. So many are brought to me that I can easily guess the number who are being neglected; and lessons in breathing are important features in all cures. - Boston Globe

KING CHRISTIAN AND TRAMP

An amusing story of King Christian and an enterprising beggar is going the rounds in Copenhagen. says the Lon don Express. The king takes habitu ally an early morning walk accom- panied by Prince Waldemar and his favorite dog.
 Recently during one of these walks. a ragged man with all the typical cringing of a beggar, approached him.
 Well" said the king, what is it?''
 Dare I ask your majesty for your portrait as q memento?" said the beg gar. humbly.
 Naturally the king was both sur prised and pleased at this declaration Of loyalty, but regretted that he did not carry his portraits about with him.
 Pardon me, your majesty" retorted the tramp, slyly. If you will look in your purse you will probably find one"
 The king, amused at this novel way of asking fer aims, gave the man two cIoWns, but the police, to whom such smartnesS does not commend itself, have duly marked the man.
