Improving the Meadow.


There are many meadows yearly
turned into pastures which might be
saved for hay yields several years
longer with little care at the right
time One of the best ways Of doing
this at small expense is to pillow the
meadow early in August after manur-
ing it well, and here is way of util-
izing manute one is storing under the
shed, and which is going to waste, and
sow rye in early September at the rate
of two bushels an acre.
In April or as early as possible, pillow
under the rye, smooth and sow with
grass seed, using the mixture best suit
ed to your section or using a mixture
OF timothy, red top and clover which
is excellent in most sections. and will
not contain enough clover TO injure it

Thinning Fruit Pays Sometimes.

The market test of thinning fruit
has been applied by Prof. c. A. Beach
IN certain apple orchards of New York.
He finds that the thinned trees bear a
larger percentage of first-grade fruit
than unthinned trees. and that the
fruit is much better adapted for max
ing fancy grades. The profit Of the
operation depends upon the price that
can be obtained for fancy fruit. The
opinion of practical grower In whose
orchards the experiments We're con-
Quoted. is TO the effect that when there
is heavy set of apples. and appears
likely that there viii be a large crop
of fruit. it VIII pay TO thin to such an
extent as TO insure good-sized fruit.
otherwise not, except as a protection
for the trees.

Secretary A. B. Leonard, OF the Metho.
dist Missionary Society, Talks OF
The Cooper Request.
SOCIETY COULD NOT ACCEPT 1T
Head of Great Society In Communication
Cut No Figure In Their Decision.


A. B. Leonard, the secretary of the
American Board of Missions of the
Methodist Episcopal church, has sent
communication to the leading mem
bers OF the church in this city, in re-
gard to the action Of the church in de-
Ginning to accept the legacy left to the
Missionary Society in the will of the
late Willis w. Cooper Of this city.
In his letter, Mr.. Leonard states
that the fact that Mr.. Cooper lost his
life in theatre fire was never con
sidered by the Board of Missions but
that they were forced to decline the
legacy under the terms set out by Mr..
Cooper for legal reasons. In stating
the position on the matter, Mr.. Leon
ard sends the following letter to the
Methodists in Kenosha and other
cities:
New York, May 10, 1904.
sTo the Members of the Church al
Large,
Il am greatly surprised at the story
that has gone into circulation through
the public press in regard to the rea-
sons why the Missionary Society de-
clined to accept the bequest made by
Bro. w. w. Cooper. | beg to assure
you that the fact Of his having lost
his life in theater was not men.
toned either in our Finance Commit.
tee or in the Board of Managers. In.
deed, | am sure it was not in the
thought of any one. There were
three principal reasons why the be.
quest was declined.
"1.) The matter was referred tc
our legal adviser, and after giving il
careful attention, he reported that il
his Judgment the Missionary Society
did not have the authority to accept
the trust on the terms proposed in the
will, and the acceptance would in al
probability involve serious legal diff
culties.
"(2.) The bequest was to be man.
aged by the Missionary Society dur
ing the lifetime of Mrs. Cooper and
her daughter. They are both com
parative1y young and it would pro
badly be many years before the Mis-
sionary Society would receive ever
the interest.
49, The bequest would never
come under the control of the Mis-
sionary Society, except to invest i
and apply the proceeds to missionary
purposes. The second and third diff
ficu1ties might have been overcome
but the first was insuperab1e, and SC
the board declined,
Every sincerely yours,
GA. B. LEONARD"
