A Tabor, Iowa, paper in Il report of
a Song Recital given in that city by
Miss Helen e. Lawrence of Perrys-
burg, speaks in very complimentary
terms as follows:
Everything combined to make the
second recital of the series as success
full as the first. Miss Lawrence has a
high lyric soprano voice carefully cul-
tured, and of a well-developed range.
1t is a very pleasing voice; though not
of great power, it is clear and pure
and with Il fine volume and beauty in
the well-placed upper tones. Her
singing is remarkable for its accuracy
to pitch, and the clearness of the
technic. Every note is clear, accur-
ate and finished. The management OF
the breathing and the resultant phras
ing are marked excellencies of Miss
Lawrence's work.
The program was ~exacting and gave
one an opportunity to judge of the
range and thoroughness of her train
ing.

BROWN ROT PLAYS HAVOC.
In One Georgia Orchard 10000
Trees Are Affected.

Reports from Col. John NJ. Stubs
orchards in Laurens county indicate
that the brown rot has played havoc
among the fruit trees, and he says he
and State Entomologist Scott have
reched the conclusion that bis 10000
trees will not yield carload of
peaches this year.
But Messrs. Samuel H. Rumph, f..
J. Willingham and w. G. Wright,
three of the leading growers of the
Marshallville and Fort Valley sections,
say that the sunshine of the last ten
days has enabled them to check the
brown rot which the March rains
seemed to have developed, and there
is no more of the disease in their or
chards now than they have had in
years past They expect as good
yielos from their orchards this year as
they had last year.

SHORT CATTLE SUPPLY DUE TO DROUGHT.
Shortage of Last Summer Unusual Con-
ditions Affecting Market in the Plains Region
Effect of Reduction of the Free Range.

summer was another feature in the
shortage, for fully 100000 cattle were
sacrificed as a result of this action.
Owing to the western movement OF
settlers large amount Of Texas and
Kansas land has been taken out of the
list. and even in Nebraska there is
complaint of a discrimination against
the cattlemen and in favor Of the set
tier, which does not appear to the aV'
erage individual as very wrong. All
of these things have diminished the
cattle supply for the spring market
and has made possible the results OF
the combination of interests among the
packers. There is likely to be little
change until the cattle that are put on
grass can be fattened for market. A
corn crop Wust be harvested In this
section of the west before there can
be a resumption Of the feeding. With
the large amount of money seeking in
vestment in the west farmers will have
no trouble in floating cattle paper, and
the coming of a corn crop will proba-
bly, see more feeding than ever before
in the history of the prairie states.

Remarkable Building in New York

Work has been commenced on public
school No 1S8, on the block bounded
by Lewis, East Third, Manhattan and
East Houston streets, in New York
city. This will be the largest school in
the world. When it is finished, there
will be room for 1915 children, every
one of whom will have a separate
desk and plenty of room, says the New
York World.
Public school No. 1873 will have many
novel features. 1t will be built almost
in the shape of a hollow square. In the
middle will be court of nearly 10000
square feet This will be covered with
a glass roof. Here in winter the pupils
can play outdoor games. Entrance to
the school will be from this court. In
addition to this it has been arranged to
turn the whole of the first floor into
playground. In the basement will be
baths. with hot and cold water. 1t has
been found by the school authorities
that baths in connection with schools
are one of the most desirable adjuncts.
In fact. it had been proposed that
bathing be made compulsory in some
of the schools.
Boys are to occupy one side of the
building and girls the other. There will
