Southerners May Be Distinguished by

speaking of provincialisms, no
tice that New York paper has discov-
cred that all Southerners can be easily
recognized because they use the Afrl-
can word 'tote," said man VINO
takes an interest in words in the New
Orleans Times Democrat. The paper
declares that Westerners say PACK
and Southerners say tote Well, we
could admit it without blushfng. Tote
Is a good word. It describes the thing.
It is short, straight-cut, stands well
in its boots and, in fine, meets all the
requirements of the situation. Even
the habit of 'toting' is not a bad one
if YOU are careful about what you
tote There is very little difference,
so we are told by men who are IN po-
sition to know, between the physical
energy required to tote and to carry
OF course, If you tote a thing 1nstead
Of carrying it there may be a dlner-
once of several pounds in the weight,

the difference would not be great.

Setting Plants.

A gardener says: In setting plants
there are few points, apparently I'M
significant but really vital to the Welt
being Of the plant. Chief among these
is the making up of the ridge into
which we set the plants some days I'M
advance of setting. A row made up
while the ground is damp and rained
OH before the plant is set we will find
much more solid than freshly pre-;
pared one. Any pressure on the plant
with the trowel will be doubly effec-
tive in frming the earth around the
roots. Moreover an old ridge will re-
tain it's moisture much longer than a
fresh one, thus insuring a better stand.
III setting sweet potatoes in a dry times
much good may be attained by sand
ing the roots. That is, by dipping
the roots in a bucket of water and
then sprinkling dry sandy earth on
them, thus practically giving them a
coat Of mud just as they go into thei
ground. The benefits of this treatment
are oftentimes decidedly marked. I'M
this section where large acreages of
plants are set some are using auto
matte settlers. We have used trans
planter with entire success. The ma
chine sets and waters at one operation.
The water is placed at the roots Of the
plant. It's capacity is about 25,0OO;
plants per day and requires three men:
to operate. The strong point in it's
favor is that the water enables you to-
set irrespective of weather conditions.

HIS FORTUNE IN AN ORCHID,
Steward of Sugar Steamship Be
Heves He Has Found Lost Species.

Steward of Sugar Steamship Be-
lieves He Has Found Lost Species.
The steward of the sugar steamer
Abergeldie, which, after doubling the
Cape Of Good Hope, has tied up at the
Arbuckle refinery, near the foot Of
Pearl street, Brooklyn, believes he has
a specimen of long-Iost valuable Or
child.
Through the taste of the steward for
orchids Captain Keith's dining room
became the attractive shelter of a rare
horticultural exhibit.
If the stewards surmise, based on
the description of the bloom which the
natives gave him, are correct. he eX-
poets to become so wealthy that he
can buy up half the top-priced orchids
in England and corner the market.
At Macassar, the chief port ON the
Island of Celebes, the Abergeldie's
steward, III. Dedekind, was presented
by q Chinese clerk with an orchid
Seeding, which he planted in gravel
within q cocoanut husk.
The Macassar seeding is developing
finely, and in five years Will break
out, said the Chinaman, into white
blossoms, and may then be worth $500.
At Sourabaya a native came off
shore with palms, and the steward
asked him If he could fetch some or
chids. A few days later the native re-
turned with some parasitic seedlings
growing out Of moss on the rind of a
tree.
The collector had detached the bark
with moss and orchid. The Malay said
that he had collected the specimens
Mt the risk of his life, having robbed
the graveyard of village near Soura-
baya to get the unpromising looking
roots.
From the description Of the gorgeous
bloom to come, Dedekind believes 1t to
be an orchid which accidentally arriv-
ed in England fifty years ago from an
unknown origin and was lost.

snots on the Fur of Animals.

Although we are told that the Loop
ard can not change his spots, it is GER
tain that the markings on the fur OF
some animals do change. Especially
is this true where the animal has a
distinctive winter coat. This change
has been studied by Barrett Hamilton,
a British naturalist, who is of opinion
that whitening of the fur generally ac-
companies development of fatty It's
sue, which is manifestation of in
sufficient oxidation, and hence of afro
phy. which shows itself in a whitening
of the hair. In some animals-man,
for instance-this atropny is manifest
ed by badness. That fat men are
neten bald is thus something more than
a NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

Science in Cheesemaking.

There are few operations in the,
handling Of dairy products that re-
quire more thought, information and
dexterity than the making Of cheese
Difficult as is the making Of good but
ter, it's processes are not so intricate
as are those of the making Of cheese.
This will account for the decadence OF
cheesemaking on the farm and it's rel,
egation to the factories. The makingI
of good cheese is an accident or sci
ence. Much of the good cheese that!
comes to our tables is of the first class,
All should be of the latter class. That,
accident has been an important factor
in the past is easily understood when
we consider the great variation in the
quality of the milk delivered to the
factories and the little knowledge that
has been possessed in the past Of the,
action of rennets and the effects Of
temperatures both in the making and:
ripening of cheese. The situation is
complicated by the fact that the va
ried tastes of cheese-eaters call for a.
good many different kinds Of cheese
One wants hard cheese, another a;
soft cheese, another milk cheese, an
other one that is sharp, and so on. The
cheese that is most in favor at this:
time is one that has a clean flavor and:
is quite hard and rather close in tex
ture, anad has a firm and rich body.
Such cheese keeps well till year old
if properly taken care Of To make
a cheese of this kind requires science,
if it is to be made all the time and not
spasmodically. The maker must be:
able first of all to know good milk and
must be able to secure it for his work.
With bad milk success is not possible.
He must generally have modern ma
chinery and equipment The factory.
must be so built that it will be posi-
BILE to keep it clean. We have seen.

that it is doubtful if the best cheese.

cheese in them.-Farmers Review.

Vivisection Is Science Not for Man


There is q knowledge which is
heavenly, knowledge which is hui
man, and a knowledge which is dia-
boic; there is knowledge which is
blessed and knowledge which is ac
cursed. The first is ennobling and ele-
waiting, and lifts man toward God. The
second is debasing, degrading, and
drags men toward the pit. The knowl
edge gained by roofing amid the groans
and agonies of living creatures, whom
their Maker and ours put into our pow
er, to teach us mercy, as He gives
mercy to us, is such an accused knowl
edge that only demons could seek for
it. and it can turn to no human good.
Science" so gained is not for men,
but for devils.-Bishop Hugh Miller

Noughts and Crosses.

7oSE began to play first on a
W scrap of paper which l had
~S utilized to make diagram Of
the neighborhood to show her the rela'
tive position Of our respective homes:
that is to say, Of her home and the
little house which l had bought and
furnished In the Somewhat wild hope
that she might one day by becoming
its mistress convert it into my home.
On that occasion she had treated the
diagram very fappantly by guiding my
hand to make q nOught in the area
which stood for my front garden, and

clean out the weeds, and one can AFT

will not hurt to run the cultivator|
through these spaces several times beAI
fore the ground freezes and then th&
beds will be in good shape for the:
mulch which may be put ON in theI
late winter Or early spring, according
to how much protection the plants
need. If only to keep them from heav-;
ing out by the action Of the frost, do:
not put the mulch on until about a!
month before the ground is likely to-
break up. Try this plan of fall clean
ing up and see the crop of berries next
year.

How Odors Move from Place to Pfac

That odors move with the air, or diff
fuse through it like gases and do not
pass through it in waves, as sounds DO
or in swiftly-moving particles like the
radium emanations, seems to be con-
clusively shown by recent experiments
on the propa CATION of scents through
small tubes In such tubes there can
be no general motion of the air, and
the rate of travel Of an odor is ex-
tremely slow. That of ammonia took
over two hours to get through a tube
yard and half long. The presence
of the ammonia could be detected
chemically at about the same time
that its smell was noticed. 1t seemed
TO make little difference in the speed
whether the tube was held horizontal
" or vertically, or whether the odor
moved I'D or down.-Success.

Transplanted the Gooseberry Bush.

One of the troubles nurserymen say
they meet with comes from customers
desiring large fruit bushes and trees
It is only customers Of long standing
who know they can rely on the nur-
seryman's word, who are satisfied to
plant young stock in preference to
older. An example was related of one
who wished a number Of currant bush
es and who would be satisfied with
nothing but those of large size. Ex-
plantations that younger plants would
do better were in vain, the old plants
had to be secured. Then advice was
requested as to the pruning Of them.
The advice was rendered to cut the
bushes back almost to the ground.

Experience has taught that land out
of the semi-arid region does not take
kindly to irrigation. During a dry

crops, but the soil construction seems
to be such, where rains come, that

hard as a brickyard when it gets dry.
