penetrate the soil deeply, even though
they subdivide under the ground.
Stumps Of this character permit OF
free cultivation around them. In plow-
ing new ground the plowman is H.
prised to find with what ease he may
pass some stumps, while it is necessary
for him to bear his pillow out of the
ground or fight his way through a maze
of roots as he approaches stumps OF
another species. The difference in
roots is what makes the difference in
trees ability to stand storms. The
forest may be full of up-rooted trees,
but the hickory, black gum and white
oak stand erect, resisting the force OF
the wind and ravages Of time, until
age has caused them to decay and
crunble back to earth. Such stumps,
though easy to cultivate, are hard to
remove, whether by means Of the axe,
machinery or explosives. Therefore, in
clearing land covered with such
stumps, it Is not unusual to turn the
land into a pasture and permit the
stumps to rot out.
There are trees with a semi-tap-root
system, such al We show in u second
illustration. The roots strike down

was decided that in order to avoid the
possibility Of blood poisoning, it would
be best to have an operation performed.
The President was very much averse
to anything of the kind, but nevertne-
less, when Logansport had been reach
Cd, he had been prevailed on TO deliver
the tariff speech, which had been pre-
pared for delivery at Milwaukee. and
which was regarded as 4 OF the most
important Of his proposed speeches for
the West. At Logansport, Senator Bcv-
eridge boarded the train and after a
consultation with him it vas decided
that he should summon several Of the
best physicians of Indianapolis to meet
the President. When the train pulled
into the station, the doctors wore there
and they were taken by the Senator
Immediately into the Presidents car.
When the President arose to greet the
padty. and also when he arose to make
address. it was noticed by those near
him that he stood with all his weight
on his right leg. and the posture SEEM
ed so awkward and so much like a
pose that it caused comment. When the
President was taken to the Columbia
Club for luncheon, he was made the
subject of a serious consultation by
the physicians. His leg was barred and
the swelling examined. After a consid-
cradle time the doctors reached a YER
dict. Said DR.. Oliver:
I'm order to avoid possible blood
poisoning setting in. it will be neces-
sary TOT the President to submit 20 a
slight operation" and to this view all
the other concurred. The President
wished to postpone i. until he reached
Washington, but the physicians again
proved obGurate. They gave it as their
opinion that the bruise could not be
trincd with, in its present condition
and that no n could afford, under
al! the circumstances. to take any
chances in postponing the needed sur
gical attention.
At the conclusion Of the operation
the physicians authorized tho following
statement: "As a result Of the thrau-
maiiam (bru;se) received in the trolley
accident at Pittsield, Mass, there was
found to be a circumscribed collection
Of perfectly pure serum in the middle
