Although the surface wind was from
the east, the dust cloud from the erup-
tion OF the Souffriere or ST. Vincent,
at $50 a. m. on March ~. reached
Bridgetown, Barbados. one hundred
miles to the eastward, by 0 a. m. so
that its rate of motion was not less
than forty milos an hour, after having
attained an elevation of probably
three miles at least above the Souf-
friere Its altitude above Barbados
was estimated at about eight thousand
feet, or double the height of the Souf-
friere. At several points the first fall
of dust was observed at f1.15 a. m; IL
increased until l.S0 p. m, then dimin-
ished, and by p. m. 1t hal ceased. In
the neighborhood Of Brdgetown the
fall was at the rate of about two and
one-half tons an acre; considerably
less at Bathsheba, fourteen miles to
the northeast, while at Coslrington
house, two miles north OF the town, IL
amounted to 6.52 tons an acre. TAX
ing three tons an acre as the average
would give 100000 tons for the whole
island. The May dust was q very
light gray. that OF March very dark
almost black, Dr. Spencer describing
the March dust cloud as Of deep
Prussian blue color.-Nature.

No Witch Ever Burned In Salem.

It is a fact that no witch was ever
burned or put to death by fire In Salem
or any other part OF Massachusetts.
How the impression that Cotton
Mather and his associates had perpe-
trated that horror gained currency Is
inexplicable. but II has been floating
around for generations, and in all prob
ability will "go on forever" Salem
was the scene OF the trial, conviction
and execution by hanging of persons
accused Of witchcraft. Gallows Hill,
the emlnerce on which the hangings
occurred, Is, perhaps. the most inter
esting show place in New England. II
may be doubted II more sincere or
more conscientious men ever lived
than Cotton Mather and his brothers.
They went to the Bible for their au-
thorlty. to the Mosaic law, emitting
the Christian dlspensation. That law
told them. "Thou shalt not suffer a
witch to live" Firmly believing In
witchcraft and having no doubt that
they had witches to deal with, what
were they to do but to kill them? From
their point of view, they exercised
great humanity in employing the gal
lows rather than the fagK.

Most fruit growers ere familiar with
the Strlngfsllow method o. tree plant
ing and practice IL more or less. On
the other hand, IL Is always noticed
that when a man has a few choice trees
to set he digs hole of good size
spreads out the roots carefully, and
fills IN close about t.Iem. This was the
old time method OF tree planting and
Is now In many sections. The String
fellow method Is to cut back both roots
and top SO that the tree Is as nearly q
whip as possible, make hole with a
crowbar and insert the tree in this
hole. That method Is the other eX-
treme. A compromise between the
two methods now has many advocates
and consists In close pruning of the
tree, roots and tops, not SO close as In
The Stringfellow method, however, and
making hole with spade just large
enough to take in the tree roots to a
proper depth. The soil Is then packed
closely about the roots as In former
methods This plan seems To be most
sensible and will probably give better
results than either Of the old methods
The writer has set hundreds of trees
after this plan and can not see but
what the results are quitH as satisfac-
tory as when the trees were planted
after the more elaborate plan fret
entioned.-Indianapo News

a Trial of Girsenu.

Bulletin 62 of the Pennsylvania Ex-
pertinent station gives an interesting
illustration report OF the stations ex-
periments with ginseng during the last
six years. from which the following
account ia condensed. For many years
the price per pound of ginseng has
steadily risen in the wholesale drug
market, owing to the rapid disappear
ance Of the native wild plants and the
steady demand for It in China. The ar
tificial cultivation of the plant was an
inevitable result OF these conditions;
but the seed companies which inaugur-
ated this have in many cases adyer-
tised very exaggerated accounts Of the
profits of the crop and the ease with
which It could be raised To discover
the actual difficulties and misfortunes
which ordinary farmers might expect,
the station undertook To test the rela-
tive value of wild roots. cultivated
roots and seedlings. The wild roots
were small, dark colored and deeply
wrinkled for the most part and were of
all ages. The cultivated plants were
two-year-old seedlings from a nursery
and were long. smooth and white and
showed plainly the advantage OF grow
ing in rich, loose soil.
The soil for ginseng should be q
light loan with rich vegetable mould
and good drainage. II this condition
does not exist naturally, 1t should be
Initiated as far as possible by deep.
thorough tillage and good woods earth
mixed In. The latter was the condition
at the experiment station. The roots
were carefully planted eight inches
apart In deep holes, SO that they
might have good start TO grow

CHERRY FESTIVAL HELD.
Quaint Custom to Commemorate Saw
Ina of City.

People are still talking of the beau
ties of the cherry festival, the quaint
custom which Hamburg has kept up
for centuries. The bands OF white
clad children that pass through the
streets bearing branches covered with
cherries are n sight n stranger never
forgets. This festival had It's origin
In 1892, when the Husgltios marched
against Hamburg with the intention of
razlng II. A citizen named Wolfe pro-
posed that band OF children from 7
TO IA years of age be sent to the Hus-
sites wrapped In shrouds with petit
tion to spare the city. The children
so presented themselves before the
Hussitles' chief, Procopus Nasus, who
was so impressed by seeing children In
shrouds that he promised to spare the
city. Then he feasted the children
on cherries. In commemoration of
that day the children have n cherry
festival every year in Hamburg.
