WHAT'S the object Of this educa-
tional institution !? Is it simply
Ito enable these unfortunate
children to read and write !?
And perhaps to read spoken Ian
lguage from the lips, and to
articulate themse selves, though
they never hear the sound of the
human voice. The object should
HE broader by far. It should be
to fit them as far as possible for
the duties of life. There are
only q few positions which they
can fill to the satisfaction of
their employers. Two shops are
now in operation, one takes up
printing, and to show its eff
cheney it is only necessary to say
that one Of the boys who had
worked in the school shop for a
portion Of the day during the
past four years, secured employ
ment during last vacation Of
Editor Tuttle Of Mandan, where
he was paid 81 per day for his
services. The other shop teaches
carpentry and cabinet making.
is it not a great deal better to
send these young men out into
the world fitted to earn their
own living than to have them as
la public char ge? Is 1T not het-
ter for the community and they
not more apt to be happier and.
better members Of society, BY
being able to care for them
selves ? The school has quite a
large farm, and raises much Of
Its own support from these fer
tile acres. Why is not the plan
suggested by Superintendent
Bangs a good one, to secure in
some way a competent instructor
in agriculture one who knows
how to teach mode m methods
and fit these boys to be good
farmers? Most Of them 4 are ire
farmers boys and could soon
become succ ccessful cultivators Of
the soil if they only had the nee
essary encouragement 533

Another A: 4 j Plague
Is Mastered

The approach Of the severe
weather with the consequent
spotted fever, 4 or cerebro-spi-
nal meningitis, season is robbed
of its terrors. An antitoxin for
the dread disease has been dis
covered Whic j it is believed will
be as successful in the treatment
OF cereh spinal meningitis as
the dipntheria serum is in the
treatment Of diphtheria.
DR.. Arthur j. Wolfe, bact teriol-
|oigst Of the Hartf ford board Of
health, has made this important
discovery. He has announced
that the antitoxin Of cerebro-
spinal meningitis lies in the
|diptheria germ itself. He reach
led his conclusions in the follow
ing manner. First at the time:
that cerebro- spinal meningitis
was at it's height, he noticed that
|dipht htheria sed out ]; seeos. n,
microscopic exanaina ation off the
germ taken from the spinal
canal Of the victims Of cerebro-
spinal meningitis showed hardly
| a trace Of diphtheria germ.
The Importance Of this dis
covery can be estimated when it
is remembe that deadly epi-
denies Of spotted fever" or
cerebro- o-spinal meningitis, have
broken out in some cities Of the
United States every winter or
spring for the last ten years.
Every one Of these epidmics has
been attended BY an appalling
number Of deaths, especially
among young children. Last
spring the death rate from
| spotted fever in New fork
reached such a high figure that

Iculars instructing parents in
preventive measures for the dis
lease and in methods Of treat

THE ART OF BUDDING.
The Season, Necessary Materials and
Details of the Operation.

The Season, Necessary Materials and
Details of the Operation.
The cut quite plainly represents the
details Of the operation of budding
The points may be given in brief as
follows: Budding is performed in the
north from the beginning Of July to
the middle of September, beginning
earlier in the southern states. Stocks
should be at least three-eighths Of an
inch in diameter Leaves should be
rubbed off from the base Of the stock
just before budding. On young stock
buds are inserted as low down to the
ground as the builder can work On
trees of considerable size the new
growth of high branches is selected.
The north side of the tree is generally
considered best, as it is shielded from
the SUM-
The scions from which the buds are
to be taken are cut from shoots of the
seasons growth, usually on the outside
of the tree where they have been ex-
posed to sunshine, as they must be
strong and we'll hardened. The growing
end of the shoot Is cut off. The leaves
are removed, but a part of the stalk Of
each leaf is left. Thus the t'stick Of
buds is formed
In preparing the stock two cuts are
made, one vertical, about an inch and
a half long, and one horizontal, across
the top of the vertical. At the same
time the bark, If it is in the right con-
dition and tho oneratOr is eXDert is

lifted by peculiar turn Of the knife.
When the bark does not slip freely, it
is raised by a sort Of lifting and push
ing motion with the thin bone scalpel
at the end Of the budding knife. Many
builders use the rounding point of the
blade.
The bud is cut about an inch long
and taken away at the deepest point
about one-fourth Of the diameter Of
the twig. Some growers strongly rec
ommend removing from the bud the
little bit of hard wood that is thus cut
out with it from the stick.
The bud is inserted at the upper end
Of the long incision on the stock and
pushed gently down to place. II the
upper end of the bud extends above
the transverse incision, it is cut off to
fit.
The bud is tied Immediately, begin
ming at the lower end, winding up
ward, covering the missions securely,
but taking care to leave out the foot
stalk and the bud. A string for budding
is cut about foot long. The lower end
is secured by wrapping over it the Sec
ond time round, and the upper end Is
finished with knot.
Wooden yarn, candle wick, narrow
strips Of muslin, Eastwood bark or the
imported raffia may any of them be
used for tying.
When the bud has successfully unit
ed with the stock, the tie is taken off,
In about three weeks.

Earliest Christians Celebrated Easter
With Prayer and Sacrifice.
geles Times
ITS ORIGIN AND DATE.

With Prayer and Sacrifice.
The Semitic always took his re-
ligion much harder" than the Aryan.
and the spring celebration of the lat
ter took the form of feasting. dancing
and having fun, while the former had
prayer, sacrifice and an ever-growi2g
ritual to be observed. From these
earlier Semitic ancestors the Jews ce-
rived their feast of unleavened bread,
the sacrifice of the Paschal lamb and
other observances of that season, the
origin of the custom being forgotten
in the legend of the Passover.
The earliest Christians. being them
selves originally Jews, continued this
celebration with a new Significance.
the death of Christ being to them the
sacrifice of the Paschal lamb. When
the celebration was taken up by the
non-Jewish Christians. they made 1t a
point to get as far away as possible
from everything Jewish, and made 1t
purely a celebration of the Resurrec-
ton, without reference to the coinci-
dent Passover. They determined,
furthermore. that the festival should
fall on the Sunday following the ter
mination of the Paschal feast, but it
was several centuries before the au-
thorities at Rome decided upon the
basis of calculations for the deter
mination of the full moon. upon which
Easter depended.
