In this country we pay more attention to

smallest product in value derived from
sheep. 1t has been repeatedly shown that

TYPHooN AND TIDAL WAVE
THAT DEVASTATED THE Low ARCH
IPELAGO LAST JANUARY.
Few Survivors Except Those Who Ran

SAN FRANCISCO. March 1.-THE steam
er Mariposa arrived from Australia to-day,
bringing additional news of the typhoon
and tidal wave in the Tuamotu islands. in
the south Pacific ocean. in the middle Of
January. The French government has in
vestigated the disaster. and found that be-
tween five hundred and six hundred island
ers persisted during the storm. After the
wind had subsidized and the waters had re-
eedei, bodies OF drowned natives were
found tied to trees about the place:
Hikuera island was the least able to with
stand the force OK the storm, as its highest
elevation is only twelve feet above the sea
The residents fiocked TO the heights and
sought safety by binding themselves to the
rocks and trees. There they remained for
the three or four days during which the
storm swept over the archipelago. The
islands OF Pao. Mako Kau and Piquera were
washed away down to the waters edge by
the tidal wave. They are destitute of veg
citation. On them man cannot subsist, as
the soil has vanished and the cocoanut trees
are dried up and dead.

ANOTHER GREAT HURRICANE.
Samoan Disorder of 1850 Recalled by
the TuamOtu Affair.

March is and IL, 1889, violent and de-
structive hurricane swept over the Samoan
or Navigator islands, and as result SIX
warships and ten other vessels were ground
to atoms on the coral reefs or thrown on
the beach in front of the little city of Apia,
and li2 officers and men of the German and
American navies lost their lives. The
United States vessels destroyed were the
frigate Trenton, flagship OF the Pacific
squadron, the steamer Vandalia and the
Nipsic. The lost German vessels were the
gunboat Ebert, the corvette Alga. and the
Adler, the flagship of the German squadron.
The British corvette Caliope was in the
harbor of Apia, but, through Its powerful
machinery, put to sea and escaped. Inc
merchant vessels wrecked were principally
small craft. The beach was strewn with
wreckage from one end of the town 10 the

German sailors were for a time quartered

were injured by falling from the rigging
or being thrown about the decks Dy the
terrible seas, and it was necessary TO pro-

How to Set Out Trees.
Country Gentleman.

Souiitiy GSHticIIldU.
Where the conditions are suitable you
can make deep burrows singly or crosswise
of the field by the use of the team and SUBJ
soil pillow. which will save considera bic
labor in digging the holes, and when these
burrows are lined out straight and the work
is properly done, it is decidedly the most
economical and best method Afterwards
you can enlarge the furrow directly where
you are to plant the trees. You will find
this comparatively small job. as most
pillow.
Dig the holes sufficiently large for the
roots in the natural position. have the holes
at least three feet in diameter and eighteen
inches deep: fill in bottom of hole with
rich soil. and plant an inch deeper than the
trees stood in the nursery row. The roots
OF the trees should never come in contact
with the ne hard edge Of the holes: they
hold. Many trees that die are killed for
the want OF proper care in the preparation
of planting: in fact, the life and future of
young trees depend largely on the care and
attention bestowed on them when they are
being placed in Mother Earth
Use the surface soil directly about the
roots; after the roots are well covered, firm
the soil thoroughly by the use of the feet;
do not place any manure next the roots. A
shovel or two of fine manure may be put in
the hole after the roots are we'll covered
level with the surface of the ground. In the
absence of stable manure you use to
good advantage five pounds of unleached
wood ashes to each tree, applying one-half
Of it on the soil directly after the roots
are covered. and the other half on the sur
face of the ground around the tree. In case
you cannot get stable manure or wood
ashes, you can use any of the complete
makes of commercial fertilizers. These
manures may be used afterwards In large
quantities, according to the development
and requirements of the trees. All roots of
the trees that may have been mutilated
with the spade or tree digger should be
made smooth with sharp knife. This
work is very important and should not be
neglected.
After the trees are planted they should be
properly and severely pruned back, remov-
ing fully two-thirds of the wood and leader.
In cutting off these branches look for a
bud on the outside of the limb, and cut
back directly above this bud. We need
hardly state that this pruning back at the
time of planting is one of the most neces-
sary and important requirements, and fail
ure to attend 10 this small detail has been
the direct and only cause for the loss of
very many trees.
