WATER HYACINTHS.
They Clog Traffic in Some of the
Southern States


During the last year experiments
have been tried. under the supervision
of the government, with the idea Of
Kidding the southern waterways of the
hyacinth. AS is well known, the vari-
ETY. known as the water hyacinth
spreads so rapidly and has such rank
growth in Florida and Louisiana that
cation, and in some cases has COM
pletely blocked streams which had
hitherto been available for the use of
light-draft steamers. The hyacinth
has been especially troublesome on the
st. Johns river, where various schemes
have been tried to destroy it. One of
the plans was to equip steamboat
with a propeller provided with blades
having very sharp edges, with the
view of cutting away the growth below
the surface. 1t is believed, that, this
treatment would cause the plant TO
die, but the benefit was only tempo
rary. While lanes of open water were
made by the action of the rapidly
moving propeller, they were soon filled
with the hyacinth, and this scheme was
abandoned. At some of the smaller
wharves on the st. Johns the growth
has been so thick that it has been
necessary to go out in boats and cut
away with sickle and knife large
area in order to allow a vessel to
moor at the dock, while some of the
smaller wharves have been abandoned,
as the plant grows so tnickly about
them that boat driven by quite
powerful engines is in danger of be-
coming blocked in the midst of a bed,

Caring for the Dairy Cow.


No one will question the statement
that any animal that Is well treated
will do its best for it's owner; the uou-
BILE is different people have dlnerenC
ideas Of what constitutes good treat
ment. The average man feels that
plenty of good food is all an animal
should expect, while other men en-
deavor to make kind words and an oc-
casiOnal pat take the place OF proper
feeding. A veteran dairyman, Ger
man, showed the writer his stables
made of rough lumber and crudely
built, but well lined inside with build
ing paper, SO that they were warm.
Each stall! was arranged so that the
animal had perfect freedom in the in
closure and yet could not turn sutfi-
GENTLY to soil the bedding. Every stall
was thoroughly cleaned each morning
and night, all straw removed and
moderately strong solution Of carbOl1c
acid sprinkled over the floor. A light
layer Of straw was placed on the floor
during the day, and at night heavy
bed was made. Every day, usually
just after milking, and while the cows
were eating, they were groomed with
brush and comb just as the horses
were cared for. In the morning each
COW was wiped off with large cloth

Its coat from the straw This was
done before milking, the udder being
also cleaned with a cloth. OF course,
these cows are well and properly fed,
but our friend has figured that the
treatment referred to has considera-
BILE to do with the milk result, and he is
undoubtedly right.-St. Paul Dispatch.

Effects of Cultivation,

AT one of the experiment stations
wheat was tested in plots under va
rlous modes Of cultivation, and it was
round that when the seeds were care
fully selected, planted in rows and Gull
uVated with hand implements, the
yield was at the rate Of sixty bushels
per acre, and case is on record where
a FARMER in England planted wheat in
rows one foot apart, and the grains six
inches apart in the rows, cultfyating
between the rows and hoeing in the
rows, by which method he secured over
100 bushels per acre; but such cases
are the exception. The English field
was first covered six inches with ma
nure and the manure well worked into
the soil, while the season was favor
able. What the cost of labor amount
ed to was not stated, but the fact was
demonstrated that wheat could be chi
tlVated like corn and the yield largely
increased. At the present day there
are improved hand mplements-seed
drills, wheel hoes and hand cultlyators
that are aids to hand work, and if
the price Of wheat in the near futurn
warrants their use there is no douht
that the average yield of the future
will be much larger.

CHAPTER v.

Reuben Culwick occupied the first floor

rented Hope Lodge and to whom Reuben
paid the modest sum of three shillings
and sixpence weekly, had not hidden his
light under bushel, and had extinguisb.

Sive advertising over his house front.
The name of Jennings" in large white
white capitals on crimson ground, was
the sky line of the edifce, and another
board, with Jennings" of somewhat
more moderate proportions, had been
fastened between the windows of the first
and second floors, while Jennings, Pyro-
technic Artist" in blue and yellow, by
way OF variety of coloring, was inscribed
over dingy shop front. On the door
also had been painted Jennings, Fire
work Maker to the Court" and over the
door was plaster cOat-of-arms, signifi-
cant Of the royal patronage which the
family legend asserted had been once
Vouchsafed to an extinct Jennings who
had been blown to atoms one GUY
Fawkes season,
MIR. Jennings was always waiting for
November, although he drove little bust
ness in colored fires for minor theaters
at all times of the year. On the night of
Reuben Culwick's return to London, he
was standing at his door, after his gem
eral rule. But on that particular even
ing he was not waiting for November so
intently as for his ledger, Reuben Gull
wick, who had said that he should be
back that evening. Suddenly John Jen-
nings was Joined in his watch by a wom-
an as thin as he was, and as pale. She
put her hands suddenly, and possibly
heavily, ON his shoulder, for Mr., len
nings WINGED and doubled I'D under the
pressure.

nings said, remonstratively.
"Wish would not what, John?" osked
the newcomer on the scene.
'Take a person off his guard like that
and scare him."
Have you grown more nervous crea-
ture still, watching for what will never
come again?" said the woman. with a
strange asperity of tone.

ed her brother in dismay. "Do you mean
that Mr.. Culwick win not come back,

been thinking OF thatp said Mr., Jen-
ningsi "you didn't say so before--you
Aaoh SUCH lhoughE an nouF ago. What
makes you get SO foolish an idea into your
head now?'
He laughed in an odd, hysterical fash
ion, like woman, as his greater interest
took him out of his languid position and
set him upright, staring at his sister.
Well. I've been thinking 1t over
what he Is, and what we are-and I'm
sure that he viii be glad to be rid of us
altogether. He has only stopped here cut
of compliment all this while: but Won

added, fretfully.
