Cattle.

Business in the cattle section was lively
yesterday to the extent of the offerings.
About the only quotable change in the
market was in stockers, which were
strong to higher. Buyers are becoming
numerous for stockers and the general
suppression is that they will be higher.

Brilliant Effect In Honor Of the

Brilliant Erect IN Honor OF the
~ G. A. r.
San Francisco, Aug. 18.-The men,
bers of the G. A. R., who have been ar
irving by every train for the past
week to attend their thirty-seventh
annual national encampment, were
treated to genuine surprise tonight.
AS they came from the east and south
they had noted the city was in gaia
attire. They had seen business build
ings decorated in the national colors
and had casually observed fhe wires
strung across the principal streets,
The twin gothic arches erected in the
center of the business section of the
city also came in for share of ap-
probation. But this gave Waxsto ad-
miration as darkness fell and:the cleo
trio current was turned on, Then,
suddenly, as if by the call of ma
gician's wand, the city was transform
ed from itae daay commercial aspect
into veritable palace of delight. The
gothic arches spanning the principal
avenues, elaborate in their decora-
tons and crowned with flags, sudden
ly burst into bloom, Zach a marvel of
color and artistic design}S Possibly
nothing finer has, been seen in Ameri-
ca,rcertai6ay nothing of eqxS beauty
in this city. ,'M&

Apple Tree Borers.

ANCo 0OToTos
There are several borers Of the apple
tree--the flat-headed, which bores un-
der the bark and sometimes in the
wood; the round-headed, which bores
into the tree, remaining in the larval
state three years. and the twig borer,
which enters just above the bud. Dig
out the borers with sharp knife or
probe into the bores for them with
sharp-pointed wire. Scrub the trees
and apply early in June and July
whale oil soap Tor soapsuds). with a
little carbolic acid added. Burn all
twigs attacked. The soapsuds keeps
the moths off. The digging out of the
round-headed and .fat-headed borers
must be done effectively. The borers
are about an inch long. A sharp wire
kills them in the tubes made by them.

Farm Notes,


A prominent English poultry breeder
will make a large display of Old Eng
1ish game fowls and Dorkings in the
poultry exhibit at the Worlds Fair.
Ten acres Of small fruits will often
make a man more truly prosperous
than ten times as much land In wheat
or corn. He may not be worth a,
much In actual capital invested, but
he will be getting larger net income,
and doing it with less severe toll. The
small farm well titled, whether it be
In fruits, dairy, vegetables, etc., is al
most always the most satisfactory.
The principal capital needed to start
such farm Is a level head and knowl-
edge of the business.
Mildew is one of the greatest obsta-
cles In the way of gooseberry growing
IN most parts of the country. A grow
er Of experience has found that salt
hay spread over the whole surface of
the ground to the depth of three inches
Is preventive. Common coarse hay
Or bog grass, soaked in brine, would
possibly answer just as wen. On ac-
count Of the manner in which the salt
absorbs water from the atmosphere
the mulching, and consequently the
vines, are kept at an even temperature.
In an experiment made to determine
the absorptive powers of milk there
was inclosed In jars a portion of milk,
and In different lars. but not in connac-
ton, different substances, giving off
aavors. At the end Of eight hours a
portion of the milk was drawn from
near the bottom Of each jar, by means
Of pippette, 50 as not to disturb any
part of the milk. In every one-of
fifteen trials-the milks had absorbed
the flavor to such an extent that II
had penetrated the very lowest stra-
tum.
When the grass is allowed to produce
seed 1t exhausts the soil more than
