CHAPTER Xxx.
LIFE IN THE BUNGALOW

John NJ. Rockwell never displave6
greater skill in the choice of lien
tenants than in the selection of +.
Sylvester Vincent as general super
intendent of Social Island. Mr.. Vim
cent proved to he most capable
manager. He formulated a set of
rules and enforced them with the
tact of the born executive. Since
the discovery Of the golden idols in
which Mr.. Vincent had an interest
worth at least $4,000, that gentle
man advanced himself several points
in the social and financial plane; but
lie was too shrewd to he presumptu-
Gus. He became more and more
popular with his associates. who dis
covered that some of his plans pos
Bessed merit, though others were
beyond the pale of practicability.
On Saturday night, two days after
the hurricane, the weather turned
very warm. 1t was fairly cool in the
shade of the trees. but unbearable
In the open. There being slight rea-
son to anticipate any favora BILE
change, it was agreed to arrange
such division of the hours as should
best conduce to comfort and to ex-
pediting work on the boat.
At the suggestion of Mr.. Rock
we'll II was decided that all should
arise in the morning in time to have
breakfast as soon as it was daylight.
At half-past two they were out of
bed, and by four o'clock were hard
at work. II was cool in these carly
hours, and all worked with a vigor
which gave them ravcnous appetite
for the substantial meal served at
ten o'clock. The sun was then high
in the heavens, anp it was no longer
safe to work. During the hours from
IL O'Clock until five, the castaways
enjoyed the delights of IA siesta.
At five o'clock in the evening all
were aroused, and after partaking
of fruit or a light luncheon, returned
to their labors. Three hours were
thus stolen from the angry sun in
the cool of the evening, and a total
of at least eight hours devoted to
work during the day. At eight
o'clock in the evening dinner was
ready, and at half past ten the toilers
retired for the night Eight hours
FOR work, eight for sleep, and eight
for recreation was the diurnal rou-
tine at Social Island bungalow.
The supply of bread left by Hes
tor was exhausted in three or four
days. There was an abundance Of
flour, and for IA time baking powder
biscuits enjoyed much popularity,
but il was not lasting.

Pence examined it critically.

GEN. WOOODSON
Is NOT DEAD
L. R. Delaney Received lnfor-
nation Yesterday
Is BACK AT THE FORT
He Left the Hospital for His
Post SUNDAY
is BACK AT THE FORT

The report has gained general circula-
ton that Brigadier General Woodson,
who suffered paralytic stroke some
two weeks ago, was dead. Yesterday l..
r. Delaney received information from
General Woodson himself which stated
that he was much improved and had re-
turned to his post as commander Of Fort
Assinoboine, Mont, Sunday.
This announcement will be received
with much pleasure by many Wichita
people who were acquainted with Colo
mel Woodson, as he was until two weeks
ago. when he was promoted to the rank
of brigadier general and placed on the
retired list. He has not been relieved as
commander Of the fort, but 1t is expected
that he will be retired from active serv-
ice within a short time.
Just a day or two after General Wood
son received the notice OF his promotion
he suffered a paralytic stroke and it was
stated at that time that his chances of
recovery were very slight. However. af-
ter a few days at the hospital considera-
bic Improvement was noticed and the at
tending physician had some hopes. He
continued to improve rapidly and was
removed back to the fort the latter part
of the week and again resumed his old
position.
General Woodson for years was the In
dian agent at Fort Sill and at the time
of the Philippine war was ordered back
TO his regiment and sent to the islands.
When he returned 20 this country he was
placed in command at Fort Assinoboine.
He visited his many friends In this city
less than two months ago and at that
time seemed In the best OF health. and
his friends were much surprised to learn

TREES AMONG sTUMPs.
A System of Orchard Cultivation That
II Highly Recommended by
Some Authorities.

Mr.. Samuel B. Woods. president Of
the Virginia Horticultural society.
writing to the Rural New-Yorker, says:
gave the matter Of planting orchards
In new ground much study some years
since. The result was that we planted
$4,000 trees and will set 10000 more
this spring, among the stumps. We
cut the trees down, saw up what will
do for lumber and burn the rest on the
ground. Then we plant the trees In
rows very regularly laid of, and hoe
and bush them thoroughly, going over
the ground about four times season.
We are planting rough mountain land
from 1000 to 1900 feet above the sea
level. We bush with blades and mat
tocks. and we are very anxious to learn
what cheap chemical will kill stump,
and the best way and time to apply It..
as the cost of work would be much re-
duced IL we did not have to take off so
many sprouts from the big stumps. AS
we kill out the growth we use Golfer.
putting the land into corn or peas, and
Will thus eventually give all the or
chard cultivation with plow. am sat
isfied that 1t is positive advantage
to leave the stumps; they carry the
moisture deep into the ground, help the
drainage and enrich the soil by decay.
You may have noticed that a young
tree planted by an old oak, hickory or
chestnut stump Is the best tree in the
orchard. I have. At the same time l
believe that the more cultivation given
to the new ground the better for the
trees. Some people fear that the worms
always found in decayed wood will at
tack the growing trees. but there is no
danger from, that source, as the worm
which lives on decayed wood is OF a
different kind entirely from the worm
which attacks growing trees. You
might as well expect a dove to eat a
hawks food.
We have in Albemarle county some
orchards now in fine bearing raised on
above plan. I have been told of a
peach orchard, the returns from which
have in recent years run up to $25, 900
per annum, which was grown among
the stumps. l was talking last year
to man who has one of the largest
orchards in the state, and who had
spent good deal of money in pulling
up stumps and getting the land abso-
lutely cleared, and he stated to me
that II he had to do 1t over again he
would leave the stumps, as he regarded
their advantages as outweighing their
disadvantages, and in addition the cost
Of the work was tremendous. He told
me that it cost as much to fill up the
hole as it did to pull the stump, which
had not thought of.

APPLES FOR THE cows.
No Other Green Food Produces as
Much MIX or Greater Gain
I'm Healthy Flesh.

There is no better green food than ap-
pies for cows. but, of course, It won't do
to let them have all they will eat at first.
as such a course will be sure to make
them sick; I have known 1t to kill them.
Years ago had friend who owned a
cider mill and kept a large number Of
cows. He was careful at first In letting
cows have but little pomace, but after
once accustomed to It he let them run in
field where all the pomace was drawn,
and the cows ate'all they desired. They
gave alarge quantity of milk and gained
much in flesh during the season. To feed
apples or potatoes safely to cattle the
same may be fed by placing the COW in a
stanchion. having bar across over her
neck so as not to allow her to raise her
head up quite level with her body. What
causes them to choke is, when the
mouth is full they raise the head SO high
that the round apples or potatoes roll
down their throat without>being masti-
Gated If to be fed out of doors two
stakes or posts may be set into the
ground and holes bored through them
for rod or pole, and feed placed in
box so the COW can reach 1t when
placed with neck between stakes. This
Is very much easier than to take pains
to cut or mash the apples.-J. 8. Wood
ward, in Rural New Yorker
The L'Anse sentinel., 1903-07-18
TIMELY DAIRY NOTES.

The rapid milker will get more milk
and leave the COW In better condition
than the slow mixer. The slow mixer
gets less milk. and dries up the COW.
Nervous cows, like the Jerseys, are
sensitive to rough handling. The
amount of butter produced is materially
affected by the treatment they receive
Experiments have been made in Ger
many showing that calves do better on
boiled than raw milk, and gained still
more in flesh II portion of salt was
added.
Put your farm-produce up attractive
ly and 1t will more than pay you. In
ferior quality attractively put up will
sell better than superior quality slov-
emily put up.
Dehorn, dehorn, dehorn. Cows do
better with horns OF, and there is nc
danger The best way is to stop them
from growing on calves by rubbing
with caustic potash.
Good cows, good feed and a good
separator will not make good butter
II you do not thoroughly understand
the art of butter-making. II you don't
know how, you can learn.-Midland
Farmer.
