Partisan Trees.

Paris is said to lead the world
in the culture of city trees. The
success of the French capital is due
not so much to an admirable soil
climate as to well-organized' system
of caring for the trees.
In large nurseries young trees are
grown and prepared for the Partisan
streets. The culture of the soil is
elaborate. From the very beginning
the trees are pruned and staked to
compel a straight growth. BY fire.
uuent transplanting the roots be-
come so hardened that they are ena-
bled to withstand injury due to trans
portation. When a tree is sufficient
ly large, it is set out in the streets
with the same care that was lavished
upon it in the nursery. Often the
cost of planting single tree is $50.
Whenever a storm destroys the city
trees the nursery can be Immediately
drawn upon for another supply.

Cure 70 Stau Cured.

Wapello, Iowa, Sept. 18th Especially
One of the most remarkable cures
ever recorded in Louisa County is
that of Mrs. Minnie Hart of this place.
Mrs. Hart was in bed for eight
months and when she was able to sit
I'D she was all drawn up on one side
and could not walk across the room.
Dodd's Kidney Pills cured her. Speak
ing of her cure, Mrs Hart says:
eyes, Dodd's Kidney Pills cured me
after I was in bed for eight months
and I know the cure was complete for
that was three years ago and | have
not been down since. In four weeks
from the time l started taking them
| was able to make my garden. No
body can know how thankful | am to
be cured or how much / feel | owe 90
Dodd's Kidney Pills"
This case again points out how
much the general health depends on
the Kidneys. Cure the Kidneys with
Dodd's Kidney Pills and nine-tenths
of the suffering the human family is
heir to will disappear.

WOMEN WANT TO VOTE.
Norway Urged to Extend Franchise to
the Other Sex.

the Other Sex.
One of the curious features of the
movement for independence from
Sweden in Norway is the active, per
sistent and intelligent agitation by the
women of Norway, says the New YorR
Times. There is not any vote for the
Norwegian women except in local al
fairs but there seems to be an intense
and quite general desire for it, and
the agitation in favor of separation
has probably been taken up so Vlgor
ously and Systematically in order tc
establish a claim for participation in
the MANAGEMENT of the new order OF
things. Among the documents with
which not only Norway and Sweden
but many foreign countries, were
flooded during the discussion of the
action of Norway, those published by
the women's organization were notable
for their earnestness and the care and
skill with which they were prepared
It is generally conceded that the
standard of education as well as that
of social conduct is very high among
Norwegians of either sex, and the
movement for equal rights for WON
en-" has not there been associated
with those extreme notions that have
unfortunately prevailed in live move
ments in other lands.

FRUITFUL FURNACES
INTENSE HEAT PRODUCES
PRECIOUS STONES.
Scientists Have Succeeded in Pluck.
ing Real Diamonds and Rubies from
the CrucibIe of the Furnace.

Recent advices from France state
that Prof. Moissan, the eminent sci
enlist and inventor, has actually sue
ceeded in making genuine diamonds
and rubies. He employs for this pur-
pose the electric furnace, which has
been so improved that degree OF
heat can be produced approaching the
extreme temperatures, which were un-
doubtedly factor in the formation of
minerals and gems in the interior of
the earth.
The rubies obtained are of large
size, weighing 10 or Is carats, and in
quality and color equal and even sur
pass those found in the earth. The
natural forces attending the formation
of diamonds seem to have been more
complicated, and SO far the diamonds
resulting from the efforts OF the sci
entists have been very small, but still
they are positively identified as the
carbon crystalline diamond. They
are remarkably clear and bright, ana
on small scale as fine specimens as
natures own product.
The electric furnace has enriched
chemistry with a whole series OF
new compounds. Probably the one OF
most value to mankind at large is Cal
cium Carbide. The simple applica-
ton of water to Calcium Carbide gen.
crates the gas Acetylene, which is
now being commonly used for light
ing.
The peculiar merits of kcetylene
light are it's brilliance and high can
die power, ease of installation, eco
nomy and it's adaptability for lighting
buildings of every description, regard

AMERICAN EXPORTS WANTED.

Consul General Bordewich at Chris
tiania Points the Way.
Consul General Henry Bordewich of
Christiania furnishes an interesting
report on Norway's crops and the i'm
portation of farming products into
that country. The consul general
says:
During the five-year period, 1900
1904, inclusive, Norway had only two
fairly satisfactory crop returns. The
years 1900, 1902 and 1904 were failures
to such an extent that the loss to the
country for the three years has been
estimated at no less than SGT 900.
The present season gives promise OF a
much needed change for the better.
An early spring, high temperature and
frequent rainfall, which is essential to
the generally light and sandy soil,
have been the main factors in bring
ing about these favorable conditions.
The hay crop is already secured in
many tracts, and other crops will soon
become ready for the reaper.
The average annual yield of the
more important products in Norway
are estimated as follows, stated in
hectoliters: Wheat, 11S,000; rye, 315,-
900; barley, 1,18S,500; oats, 3,475, 900;
potatoes, 100000; peas, $4,000; mix
ed grain, 264,400; hay (tons), 1851
0O0 There is reason to believe that
this years crops will reach these fig
ures. The aggregate value of the
aforementioned crops is estimated at
$52,000,00O.
The annual import of grain, flour
even in the most propitious seasons,
and feedstuffs exceeds $12,OO0,OOO,
Pork, beef, oleomargarine and vegeta-
BILE oils for margarine factories are
also largely imported, and the larger
portion of these ilnpOrtatiOnS are or
American origin. American wheat and
flour would find better market in
chat country if the import duty i'm
posed on them could be reduced to
correspond with the duty on other
breadstuffs.
American exporters Of cereals and
flours are otherwise well represented
in this country, several of the largest
flour mills having well established
connections.
Favorable weather conditions have
improved the prospects for increased
yield of vegetable and root crops.
Small fruits have been plenty and
cheap, and other fruits, such as ap-
pies, pears and plums, promise well.
Norwegian small fruits and berries are
of excellent quality, but the apples are
much inferior to the better grades OF
American apples, of which the annual
impOrtations are quite large. The va
riety best known is the BALDWIN.
American exporters of green, as well
as dried and canned fruits, should be
able to increase their sales in this
country. The shipping facilities are
good from New York to Chrisianla,
and the time is only nine or ten days.

Woman Has Usurped Most of His
Other Vices and Privileges.
The advancement of woman by leaps
and bounds continues. First. we had
the womens clubs; then the women $
hotel, with bell girls and "lady' por-
tiers, and later the Womans Down
town launching club. There is one
young woman living in the vicinity
of Madison square who is still ages
ahead the rest of her sex in the race
for equality with man. She wear
mems shoes, a fOur-in-hand tie, and a
dress that is as near an approach TO
a suit of clothes as the laws OF dress
making will permit. She carries her
umbrella as a man would his cane,
and her walk is a close imitation OF
the Harvard strut. The other day one
who passes constantly through the
park on her way down town saw TINS
concrete example of advanced woman
hood sitting on a bench writing a
letter instead of reading the paper,
while she had her shoes shined. Inc
passer-by looked by instinct, as Il
were, for the cigar in her left hand,
but that, fortunately was reserved for
a still more remote period OF feminine
development.-New York Post.

APPENDICITIS FROM RUBBER.
Moral, Says DR.. Pond, Is Don't Chew
Lot of THINGS.

Lot of Things.
Don't chew lead pencils.
Don't teeth on rubber rings.
Don't drink beer out of bottles cork
ed with rubber-washer shoppers. II
YOU do you are likely to be picked up
and hustled off to hospital and cut
open for appendicitis.
This you may learn by reading Lon
den Lancet But, of course, you won't
read it, for it is purely medical pub
lication. DR.. Pond writes for it.
He has discovered that in most
cases of appendicitis, including those
in which the operation is successful
but the patient dies, antimonlal pol
soning is found. This he traces large
ly to the general use these latter days
of bottles corked with rubber-wash-
cred shoppers and fruit cans sealed
with rubber rings.

The Use of saxydust.

In some sections saWduSt can be
bought at very low prices, and hence
can be probably used if rightly
used. It is not a good plan to use
it to the exclusion Of other mate
rails, particularly in sections where
it is thrown on land already loose, as
sandy soils are likely to be. Those
who have experimental with it think
it can best be used in connection with
hay or straw, or even leaves, spread
ing it quite thicEly over the floor and
covering it with the coarser material.
In this way it quickly will absorb any
of the liquid excrement that falls on
it, will make softer bed, and can be
used over and over again. Of course
less straw or hay is used than when
the sawdust is not a part of the bed
ding material. An excellent plan is
to use it for horses, then clean out the
best of it, dry it in the sun, and use
it as the bottom bedding for the pigs,
from whence it will go into the manure
pile. In this way not enough OF it is
used to make trouble for the manure
or the soil later.

Fighting Hail storms.

In this country the production of
rainfall by artificial means has been
abandoned although during the past
season, in California, revival in the
belief has arisen from coincidence
of heavy rains following the efforts
of a so-called ''rainmaker." The mat
ter was given rather greater promi-
nence than it deserved from the fact
that the rains followed drought and
were very badly needed.
In Europe the dissipation of hail
storms is being attempted by cannon
aiding and other similar means of dis
turbing atmospheric air currents and
electrical conditions, and the work has
been pursued continuously for several
years. Syndicates of land owners
have been formed, on the cooperative
plan, to protect particular districts,
and the results of the operations, as
recorded in Complies Rendus, Of the
French academy Of science, seem to
indicate that perhaps the cannonad-
ing is effective. While it is not prov
ed that storms are ayerted, the can
nonading appears to restore electrical
equilibrium Of the atmosphere and so
tends to mitigate st,rm conditions,
particularly hailstoCms, which, in
some districts, are OF frequent occur
renee, and which are very destruc-
tive Of crops.

Grain and the Animal.

Naturally there will always be diff
ferences of opinion as to whether
grain or other stock food brings the
most to the owner sold at market
prices or fed to the stock. Conditions
have much to do with the solving of
this problem. If feed is high and stock
low i'll price it doubtless pays to sell
off the surplus food, but it decidedly
does not pay to sell any needed by
mistake is frequently made.
For example, with grains and hay
selling at high prices, the farmer
figures that he can afford to stint his
stock, even if they get quite thin, in
order to have more food to sell. Of
course. he knows that he can get less
for the thin animal than for the one
in good condition, but he argues that
the difference he receives for the
grain more than offsets this, but does
it? Suppose COW that is thin and
giving the minimum quantity of milk
would sell for $25, isn't it fair to as
sumo that the same animal would
bring double that amount if in good
condition and a full mixer? And
would it require $50 worth of food
to keep her in good condition above
what the minimum portion OF food
costs? This is independent of the
value of the additional milk and the
increased value of the richer manure.
The subject is worth careful consid-
GRAFTON. and thorough experiment on
the part Of those who doubt the
soundness OF the argument
