THE TREATY WITH SULU SULTAN.
Gen. Davis Says u Is an Obst tacle TO Good
Government In .JOiO.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-The annual re-
port of Major-Gen. George W. Davis, re-
tired written just before he relinquished
command of the Division of the Philip
pines. renews the suggestion made in his
report a year ago that the Bates treaty with
the Sultan of Suu is an obstacle to the
establishment of good government Cen
Davis does not believe that the Bates treaty
Is necessary to prevent uprsings against
the Americans, and as showing how few
troops are needed to fight the Sulu Moros
he Says
-'rhe fact is that there has never been
time for three years when force of 500
soldiers in Jolo and two or three small gun
boats could not preserve the peace or sup
press any uprisings; but this was not known
or fully understood when the agreement
was entered into. With the Bates agree
ment out Of the way, the Government
will have to deal only with the chiefs or
the village head men, called Dattos, There
should be no great difficulty in establish
ing satisfactory relation with these village
chiefs"
The policy inaugurated under the Bates
treaty, he says, was faulty, and a proper
government OF the Moros could only be
brought about by the abrogation of the
treaty and the institution of different
system

A Rats Teeth.

The rat is remarkably we'll equipped
for the peculiar life he is ordained tn
lead. He has strong weapons in the
shape of four long and very sharp
teeth-two in the upper jaw and two
In the lower. These teeth are wedge
shaped and by wonderful provision
Of nature have always fine, sharp
cutting edge. On examining them care
fully the inner part is found to be of a
soft. ivorylike composition. which can
easily be worn away, and the outside
is composed Of a glasslike enamel
which is exceedingly hard.
The upper teeth work into the under
SO that the centers of the opposed teeth
meet perfectly in the act Of gnawing;
hence the soft part is being continually
worn away, while the hard part keeps
a hard, chisellike edge all the time, and
at the same time the teeth are con-
stantly growing up from the bottom. so
that as they wear away fresh supply
is ready. Should one of these teeth be
removed by accident or otherwise, the
opposing tooth will continue to grow.
and there being nothing to wear 1t
away it will project from the mouth
and be turned upon itself, and If it be
an under tooth it will often grow SO
long as to penetrate Is oaull.

Peas For q Selling Crop.

For the extreme southern limit Oh
which field peas are grown it is be-
lieved that seed grown near by seems
best North of that belt northern or
Canadian seed seems best. For the first
early spring sowing the pea should be
put in as soon as the ground is fit to
work and has been put in good shape
for seeding, weather conditions permit
tng. We have had heavy freezing and
snow after the peas were up, entirely
covering the plant, without serious in
jury. Drilling the seed, rather than
broadcasting or narrowing into the soil,
secures better covering and more uni
form stand. Use an ordinary grain
drill set for sowing oats; use only every
other hoe, or, if the ground be very
rich, every third hoe and using six
pecks of seed. Six pecks per acre Of
oats of stiff strawed variety may be
drilled in seven to ten days later than
the peas, 80 that both crops will reach
the milky stage together, says an Ohio
Farmer correspondent.

One of the southern experiment sta
tons has made trials with tons, oeS
grown on plants that were started in
hotbed or greenhouse and transplanted
compared with those grown on plants
started directly from seed in the field.
The latter came out ahead in earlineSs.
I hope my friends will not be misled
into the belief that such is the rule.
Much of the outcome Of course de-
ponds on the management Of the plants
started under glass. For my part can
not get ripe tomatoes in July or even
in August unless l start plants of ear
ly varieties along in February, trans
plant them once or twice and give them
plenty Of room to make them grow
stout and stocky, SO that they can be
ransplanted without checking growth.
But if you start the seedlings in hotbed
Or cold frame in April and make them
spinGling by inordinate crowding and
then set tLem out in May or early June,
with little root and tall, limp stalks
where it will take them several weeks
to recover from the shock and begin
growth anew, the plants grown from
seed sown in open ground in May might
give ripe tomatoes in advance of the
others. If we grow the Earliana and
probably Notes Earliest and Maule's
Early and other first early sorts that
make comparatively little vine or foil
age, We should bear in mind that they
need very fertile soil and more nitrog-
enous food than the later sorts, which
are apt to run largely to vine anyway.
Don't be afraid to use plenty of good
old manure in the soil where you plant
Earliana and others Of that class. 1t is
the only way to get foliage enough to

THE AMERICAN SAILOR.
He Works and Plays Hard and Spins
Great Yarns.

Great Yarns.
The sailors life is not altogether one
of hard work, and on the whole he has
tics, fencing, boxing and boat racing
fill his leisure hours. His natural fond
ness for pets is proverbial, and there
are few ships without a mascot, be it
a goat, dog or Dennis the pig, which
serves to tighten the hours of the dull
watches at sea. Many stories are told
Of the prowess of ships pets at night
on the forecastle, when the hammocks
are down and the pipes lighted. One
man spins a yarn of cat that was
born in an old boiler, cruised $1,000
miles in one ship, established a great
reputation as fighter in all parts Of
the world and finally ended his adven-
turous career on the coral reefs of Sa-
moa, says writer in the WORLDS
Work. Another tells of a monkey
without ears or tail, with which be
sailed in the China seas, whose fond
ness for liquid paint produced period
ical attacks of blindness. There is a
story Of a dissipated dog who never
lost an opportunity to get drunk and
who always recognized the bugle call
for the gig and invariably ran to the
gangway when it sounded to 60 ashore
with the captain. But the best of all
is the one of the pet bear who chased
young officer up the mizzen rigging.
Fortunate indeed is the animal that
falls into the hands of sailor.
1.-The sailor man has his vagaries,"
once said the bishop of Shanghai over
the coffin of a sailor who had taken his
own life, "but he is the tenderest heart
ed creature into which God ever
breathed the breath of life"

EXPERTS IN WOOD.
The Old Violin Makers and the Mate
rial They Used.

The Old Violin Makers and the Mate
rial They Used.
The great violin makers all lived
within the compass of 100 years They
chose their wood from few great tim
bers felled in the south Tyrol and
foated down in rafts-ptns and maple.
sycamore, pear and ash. They er-
amined these to find streaks and veins
and freckles, valuable specifically
when brought out by vanishing.
They learned to tell the dynasty Of
the pieces of wood by touching them.
They weighed them, they struck them
, and listened to Judge how fast or how
slow or how resonantly they would
vibrate in answer to strings. Some
portions of the wood must be porous
and soft, some close Of fiber. Just the
right beam was hard to find. When
found, it can be traced all through the
violins Of some great master and after
his death in some of his pupils.
The piece of wood was taken home
and seasoned, dried in the hot Brescia
and Cremona sun. The house of Strad-
ivarius, the great master of all, is de-
scribed as having been as hot as an
oven. The wood was there soaked
through and through with sunshine.
In this great heat the oils thinned and
simmered slowly and penetrated far
into the wood until the varnish became
q part of the wood itself.
The old violin makers used to save
every bit of the wood when they found
what they liked to mend and patch and
inlay with it. So vibrant and so rese-
nant is the wood Of good old violins
that they murmur and echo and sing in
answer to any sound where a number
Of them hang together on the wall, as
II rehearsing the old music that they
once knew.

In England in 1914 undertakes were
men Of influence who undertook for
consideration to get such persons re-
turned to parliament as would prove
submissive to the royal will of King
James l. The three chief undertakers
Of 1914 were Lords Bacon, Somerset
and Neville. They undertook to bride
the chief speakers and men of infiu-
ence in parliament that year over to
the side of the king, with but partial
success. Then there were undertakers
in Ireland in 1908. They were English
and Scotch colonists sent to north Ire
land and were each allotted 1000 acres
Of land. They were men Of capital and
undertook t. pay mark a year for
every six acres and to admit no recu
SAINT for tenants. Hence the name as
applied to them. But neither the his
tories nor the dictionaries give any rea-
son for calling the men who bury our
dead undertakers.
