Training the Left Hand.

II is one OF the good signs OF the
times that the use Of the left hand
is coming into fashion in education.
Our children, let us hope, are not TO
be forever crippled by being brought
up ''one-handed." We are learning at
last the absurdity Of allowing one OF
our hands to fall into practical disuse.
and the excellent names behind the
newly formed Ambldextrai Culture So
ciety give ground for hope that com
mon sense may prevail on the subject
and lead TO the development Of n two
handed instead OF a one-handed race.
The founder and secretary Of the soci.
ETY., Mr.. John Jackson. has embodied
his philosopy in n highly Interesting
book on "Ambidexterity: or. Two
Handedness and Two Brainedness," to
which Major X. $. s. Baden Powell

Many Chemists Produce From u ArtL

The sapIndus Mills or soap tree"
was introduced into Algeria In ls<5.
The soap tree In Algeria appears to
be n hybrid and has characteristics
quite different from those OF any OF
the known varieties coming from In.
dia. Japan. China and Central Amer
lea. and Il Is superior TO all In gen
erai usefulness.
The Sapindus utills Is . large tree
with n smooth. straight trunk. The
plants reach to about ten feet In
height In two years and begin to bear
In six years. The berry Is round, but
with distinct keel like that OF q wal
nut enclrcling Il. II In when fresh
smooth, shiny and neshy. When
dried II is tough, gummy and trans
lucid: the color varies from yellow
tsh green to brown. In size Il varies
from about half an inch to an inch In
diameter.
So far the cultivation Of this tree
In Algeria has been confined TO the
iow-lying lands near the coast tthe
orange belt. but II Is believed that
II would endure a more severe eli
mate. The only large plantation OF
these trees Is that OF NJ. Bertrand at
his property OF Boukandoura. about
eighteen miles from Algiers. covering
some hundred and hfty acres.
There are no important manufac-
lures OF soap tree products In Algeria.
The entire product OF the plantation
referred TO above went last year to
Germany. A good deal OF the fruit
Is employed in Its natural state. and
many chemists produce specialties
from u. such rs "saponine." an excel.
lent washing powder; "sapindine." q

MULcHING ORCHARDS.


Much discussion has been held In
recent years In regard 90 the different
methods OF treating orchards. AZ the
meeting OF the Michigan Horticnl
tural Society Professor Green aovo-
Gated Q grass mulch. He cited or.
chsrds of successful growers In Ohio
and New York that had followed the
grass mulch method Cor o number Of
years and had found that 81 WAS more
