The Population OF China.

Some doubt has been thrown by rec
ent travellers upon the correctness of
the accepted notion that China is a
land of teeming population. 1t has
been asserted that the human hives
along the seaboard and the great rivers
OF China ought not to be taken as basis
for estimates; that In those parts of
the empire, which lie off the main
routes of traffic (the natural and ar
tifcial watercourses) the population of
China is comparatively thin. A CEN
suse recently taken by the Pekin gov
ernment for the purpose Of assesses
ing taxes to meet the indemnity pay
ments seems. however, to prove the ac-
curacy of the older estimates. The
census shows that the 10 provinces of
China proper contain 407, 1877 ,305 inhab-
itants; that Manchuria has $4,000
and Mongolia. Thibet and Chinese
Turkestan a little over 100000. The
total poulation Of the empire is 1885,
447,325, according to this enumeration.
The absolute reliability of Asiatic sta
tistics is questioned nevertheless, the
agreement of the results Of the census
with the accepted estimates is so close
as to invite confidence. The statement
that the Chinese Empire contains one
third of the human race will hereafter
be regarded more than ever as an ap-
proximate truth.

When placing stock in storage, con-
slider the amount of your trade, so as
to have the celery ready at the proper
time. You must have sufficient
control Of the temperature of the stor-
age pit to be able to keep certain parts
of II warmer than others, so as to con-
troll the ripening
The dressing should be done In the
pit to avoid breakage in handling and
saving moving the waste. at time
when It is neither cheap nor conven-
lent to do so. Remove all yellow or
decayed stalks, then cut the root to a
point, being careful not to cut too high.
This takes five or six strokes with g.
inch butcher knife. Hold the plant with
the root from you and cut with mo-
tion as IL you were whiting shavings.
The washing room should be in a
warm basement or room where water
Is convenient and boiler or caldron
at hand to warm water. A square cor
nered tub is most convenient. Use plen-
ty of water and have 1t quite warm, 80
to 100 degrees. This gives gloss to the
celery not obtainable with cold water.
Dump box of celery into the tub with
the butts toward you; then with a com
mon soft scrubbing brush give each
head two or three downward strokes
with the brush. This takes all the dirt
out of the creases and gives it bright
shiny appearance.
The tier stands at the table and ties
It up four punches to the dozen, using
common white wrapping twIne for the
purpose, and running it twice around
each bunch. All decayed leaves or tips
should be carefully clipped off. 1t is
now ready to pack for shipment or
home delivery. If you have a large
amount Of celery, it is sometimes we'll
to grade it, making fancy of the larg-
est, and standard grade of the re-
maindcr. DO not try to bring your trade
to the size of your packages to suit the
trade. We have found that a case hold
ing about one bushel is as large as it
is profitable to use. This will hold
about ten dozen good sized celery.

disappearing Water.

DEVILS Lake in North Dakota, the
largest body of water in the state, COW
ers about $50 square miles. 1t Is a
glacial lake, and once had an outlet to
the south into the Cheyenne river,
through a channel which Is now we'll
marked and empty. Observations for
the last nineteen years show an almost
uninterrupted sinking of the water
level. Groves of trees, which once
stood at the beach, are now separated
from 1t by broad strips of land, and
the shallow parts of the lake notably
the long arms and bays, have been left
quite dry.
Another change is in the water from
fresh to salt. This has taken place
within the memory of man and is In
some particulars producing serious re-
suits. Fish were found in great abun-
dance up to about 1888, but now prac-
tically none are caught.
The United States geological survey
has established benchmark near the
lake, and, under the charge of Profess
sor g. M. Hale, of the state agricul-
tural college. will make careful rec
crds and general study of the fluctua-
tons Of the waters. ~'.e

Profit in Quick Grown Reef

High prices for beef have greatly
increased the interest in cattle raising
throughout the Eastern States. The ad-
dress Of j. B. Sanborn at North Adams,
Mass, before the state board of agri-
culture, was on Beef Production in
New England" and was listened to
with attention by a large audience OF
farmers. Said Professor Sanborn:
Conditions permanent in character
have brought the steer again into the
range of profitable production In New
England. The profitable steer here
must be the product of high art. He
must have the beef form, as this brings
more than the dairy form, with its
maximum of cheap parts. He is neces-
sarily hothouse product, growing and
fattening continuously from birth to
death. Maintenance is eleven pounds q
day on his average weight. and should
not be lost by single days failure of
rapid growth. Nor can years time be
necessarily added, for 1t means two
tons of fodder to run the machine this
time-a fatal amount. He must 60 to
the shambles at the lowest weight that
will command the highest value, as 1t
will require three times the food to

that twice the growth day Is made

Ownership of Street Trees.

Should street trees be owned and
controlled by the city or by the abut-
ting property owners? The weight Of
opinion among those entitled to speak
with some authority on the question
is that municipal ownership of street
trees Is necessary for the best results.
and Is besides the natural condition OF
things. Washington City Is a famil-
lar example of a systematic and sue
cessful development of street shade
trees on all the thoroughfares where
trees are desirable. Street trees
through private ownership are neces-
sarily a thing Of shreds and patches
and subject to the caprice of unin-
structed owners and the barbarous
butchery Of tramp pruners. Neverthe-
less, there are under private ownership
some good results in wayside trees here
and there. while public ownership is
not always success. City ownership
and control of trees Is the best II that
control is enlightened and sympathetic.
