ORCHARD CULTIVATION.

Its Advantages and Some of the Mod
ern Tools For the Work.
The advantages claimed for constant
orchard cultivation are that the mois-
ture of the soil is preserved in severe
drought and in very wet times the air
is let into it, the latent plant food in
the soil is made available and much
less plant food will be required to pro-
duce the growth necessary for profit,
the roots are kept deep in the soil and
are not liable to injury from heat or
cold and in well drained soil no injury
need be feared during excessively wet
seasons that might occur if it were not
underdrained.
With the modern tools for orchard
cultivation this work can be done very
thoroughly and cheaply. The work for
a season has been variously estimated
at from $40 to $50 per acre. In plow-
ing an orchard that has been long in
turf the greatest care must be taken
not to cut and tear the large roots and
to pillow only three or four inches deep,
using shallow working tools after the
blowing has been done. With the mod
ern low headed orchard tree it will be

WINDMILLs.

Compared With Gas Engines as Mo-
tive Power For Grinding Feed.
Professor King of the Wisconsin sta
ton has made a study of the effective
ness of the various feed mills found on
the market when driven by windmills
and gas engines and of the cost of
grinding feed. With one of the most
effective combinations of windmill and
feed mill the rate of grinding was
"about twenty-five bushels per hour
with a wind velocity of 31.S miles, the
meal being a little coarser than medi-
UNI Corn and oats were ground at
the rate of 4103 pounds per hour with
the wind at 26.4S miles. With wind
velocity of 26.67 miles oats were
ground at the rate of about 90 bushels
per hour and rye at the rate of 1885
bushels with the wind at 25.35 miles.
The rye was ground little finer than
medium and the oats little coarser."
Under Wisconsin conditions there are
on the average from Oct. 1 to May 1 of
each year "eighty-seven days when q
man could attend the mill and grind
ten hours with a wind velocity of not
less than fifteen miles per hour and
much of the time higher than this He
should therefore be able to grind more
than forty-six bushels per day and on
the average more than 100 bushels per
week. The eighty-seven grinding days
during the seven months place the
grinding days on the average more
than two per week, and if it is sup
posed that this is twice too high it
would still be possible on the average
to take advantage of high winds dur
ing the working hours and grind about
fifty bushels of corn, or $500 pounds.
per week. Counting the mans time
who tends the mill at ST per day, the
cost of grinding would be only about
3D. cents per hundredweight.'"
When gas engines were used as the
motive power, "the average amount of
corn ground per horsepower per hour
was 1892 bushels, equal to go pounds"
at a cost of about 1.3 cents per hun
dredweight for fuel, with gas costing
$1.25 per 1000 feet.
1t is estimated that at the rates or
dinarily paid the grinding Of feed for
thirty COWS for 200 days amounts to
about $57. The same amount of feed
may be ground with a five horsepower
engine under the conditions obtaining
in these trials for about $3.50. Fifty
seven dollars sis 10 per cent interest
on much larger sum than would be
required to fit up an automatic grind
ing plant with the twelve foot wind
mill, the price of the mill and ninety
foot tower being $1G0, and the capacity
of such a grinding plant would be
many times what would be demanded
for a herd of thirty cows"

NEW ARMY UNIFORMS.
Olive Drab the Color Selected by the
Uniform Board.

The president has considered and
approved the report of the army uni
form board. The order for the new
uniform will go into effect on jan
uary L. when officers of the army are
to be equipped according to the reg
ulations. Officers serving in the Phil
ippines will be allowed to wear the
old uniforms during their service
there. Among the changes are the
following:
The full dress coat is about the
same as at present, save that the
buttons are more spreading, with or
lamentations on the sleeve, and with
the rank designated on the sleeve
instead of the shoulder knot. The
dress coat will be what is called the
dress blouse. A new dress uniform is
provided, consisting of sack coat
of wooden or cotton material of an
olive drab color with trousers to
match.
1t is intended to provide suits
which can be worn in cold weather
that are almost a duplicate of the
present khaki uniforms worn in warm
weather and in the tropics. A new
design for the overcoat is adopted
and is the only overcoat allowed. 1t
is a double breasted ulster of olive

Harvesting Grain.

The old rule for harvesting grain
was to cut it when two joints of the
straw had turned yellow, which proc
ess begins at the bottom on dry land or
in a very dry season. But we prefer
to judge by the condition of the kernel,
cutting it very soon after it has passed
out of the milk or is in what some call
the dough. This gives a better flour
than if it is allowed to stand until fully
ripe, and there is no loss by the rat
Ting out of the grain in handling. The
proper shocking to preserve it from
the weather is important if one has
not the caps to cover it with, but such
caps may be made so cheaply of cot
ton cloth now and are so useful in both
grain and hay fields that almost any
farmer will find it better economy to
have a supply of them than to go
without them.-Boston Cultivator.

Ton Dressing Hnxfe1ds.

After the hay crop has been gathered
comes the best season of the year on
many farms for drawing out manure
and spreading it on the hayfields for
top dressing, After securing the hay
crop there is less pressure of work than
at many other seasons, and the ground
is hard and is not injured by the wagon
wheels. Then, too, the manure will be
applied in season to be soaked into the
soil by the fall rains later. This will
start up the grass to give the roots a
protecting coat for winter. Where the
soil is sandy or gravelly fertilizing
would not be profitable, as some of the
fertilizer would leach down below the
reach of the roots and so be lost. Mel
Their is such top dressing practicable on
slopes that wash badly, but almost ev-
cry farm has some field land that may

A cIRcus PLAY
Seattle Men Are Figuring on Exhib-
ting Tracy's Body.

a~'4i9 e'~NS -NNJa
If outlaw Harry Tracy is killed in
King county an effort will be made
to exhibit his body in this city, after
the coroner is through with him At
best, this is a gruesome subject, but
as a matter of fact, two well known
men of this city have proposed that
if Tracy is killed by Sheriff Cudihee's
posse, his remains should be en-
balmed and clothed in the apparel
he wears and exhibited to the public
in large hall, the receipts to be de-
voted to the fund for the benefit of
the widows and orphans of those he
has killed or may hereafter Stay in
his last battle for life and liberty.
While the proposition is a good
deal like counting chickens before
they are Matched, the matter has SER
iously engaged the attention of
number of people who have inter-
ested themselves in the chase after
the notorious outlaw. The names of
these are withheld at their request,
because of the uncanny nature of the
proposition.
It is believed here that Tracy is
near his doom-that he will make a
advantage in his favor, but worn with
disease and fatigue, he will expect
only to fight until he is dead. That
he will probably kill some of his pur-
suers is conceded by men who have
watched the chase from the begin
ming. These claim that Tracy, when
hunger and fatigue force him to make
the final stand, will gain position
from which he can watch unobserved
the approach of the posse and will
fight to the very last ditch.
If, when Tracy is finally brought
to bay, there are enough men, to-
gether with the hounds, to force him
from cover, there will undoubtedly
be a battle of Winchesters. When
this moment comes, Tracy Should
meet his fate, unless in the meantime
some lucky deputy kills him on
the road when the convict is not on
his guard If he is killed by the
united action of the posse in this
county, his body will brought to Sc
attic and will under the law, be
turned over to the coroner. After
Dr. Hoye gets through with the in
quest the body of the outlaw will be
the property, it is claimed, of the
man or men who will be responsible
for his death. These will then claim
the reward that hangs over the heaC
of the outlaw.
Here is where the scheme to raise
fund for the benefit of the widows
and orphans of those Tracy has killed
comes in. There is no doubt tina
thousands of people will pay an ad
mission fee to see the body of thu
outlaw. Knowing this fact, the prop
osition has been advanced by severa
well known Seattle men to have thu
body of Tracy embalmed and place.
on exhibition at the armory. Thu
the outlaw, even in death, would b

Potato growers frequently use a ton
of high grade fertilizer per acre, which
would contain an amount of plant food
far in excess of the needs of the largest
crop it would be possible to grow.
Such fertilizing seemed wasteful, and
the Geneva IN. W station says tests
proved it so and that the onion grower
runs great risk of diminished profits
when he uses 1000 and 1000 pounds of

MAY DEFY DEATH.
STARTLING Discovery Made BY Phys'-
oIogists in Chicago.

Chicago. Dec. 9.-New and starting
discoveries are being made by physloi-
ogists7associated with DR.. Jaques Loep
OF he University of Chicago.
THE latest one Is by Prof. David j.
Jingle one of the men who has for
several years been n OF Prof.. Locus
chief assistants in his f~ar-reacning eh-
periments into the question OF what II
Is that causes the heart to beat anu
what sustains its action when once
started.
prof. Lingle now comes forth with
the theory, and the proof OF IT, that
1t is not only the salt known as SODIUM
chloride which stimulates n causes
the heart action. but that oxygen gas
Is even a more important factor IN
sustaining heart action.
According to the results or the ex-
periments by the university professors,
the time Is not far distant when phy-
sicians will know just how much SOD
UNI chloride and how much oxygen
and how much of something else to
inject into a deceased persons veins
in order
To Restore Him to Life.
The question is asked by some OF
those who have learned Of the recent
discoveries made in regard to the
heart beat: How long will 1t be until
scientists will know how to promote
longevfty?" Others believe that the
elixir of life sought by De Soto in the
glades of Florida is now not
far distant. Prof. Lingle, assistant 10
Prof. Loeb, secured the result which
he has attained partly by accident.
While experimenting with a strip or
turtles heart, which he was moving
from n vessel containing a salt solu-
ton, sodium chloride, he noticed that
the beating of the strip was greatly in
creased whe. it came in contact with
theair He placed it in a solution OF
salt and then placed the beating strip
of heart in a jar of oxygen gas. Here
the beating was sustained for three
full days, or se~venty-two hours. No
one had been successful In maintain
ing the beat of a single strip OF heart
for so long a time as this before.
1t was just one year ago that Prof.
Loeb startled the scientific world by
his statement and proof that the vital
force of life comes from the electri-
cions in the food which is eaten, and
not from heat elements contained IN
the food.
