This Mixture Needs No Boiling.

This Mixture Needs No Boiling.
The troublesome work of preparing
the mixture is the great obstacle to
the use of the ordinary lime sulphur
wash used in spraying fruit trees for
the scale insect. Professor E. p. Felt
finds that by using common washing
soda in place of caustic soda very
efficient wash for scale can be made
without boiling. The preparation is
composed of twenty parts Of lime, fif-
teen parts of sulphur, and about ten
pounds of sal-soda to fifty gallons Of
water. Put five or six pailfuls Of hot
water In barrel add the lime, then
the sulphur and finally the sal-soda
and stir until slaked, adding a little
cold water if necessary to keep the
mixture from boiling over. The mix
ture should take on a deep red color,
well mixed to form sediment. The
wash is easily applied in spray
pump and seems to give as good re-
suits in killing the scale as the ordi-
nary preparations which require hours
of boiling. The materials are common
and easily obtained.

A Minnesota hog raiser has found a
good plan for keeping hen from sit

watch, which is wound every day and
kept ticking. AS the watch ticks the
hen begins to show signs of uneasiness
and stirs the noisy egg around with
her beak She grows more and more
nervous as the noise continues, and
soon runs Off to get cool. She finally
gives up the charge and abandons the
nest for good.

Great Havoc Wrought by Dynamite
Explosion Fond du Lac Belle Kills
Herself eroisrn of Appleton Young
Man in Philippines.

While the Ashland fire department was
lighting fire in the barn of George Will
kinson quantity of dynamite exploded
seriously injuring four fremen and two
spectators. and causing havoc through
out the city. The firemen had been
warned that there was dynamite in the
building. but continued their work. The
Wilkinson family hurriedly vacated their
dwelling adjacent to the barn, when,
without warning. the dynamite exploded,
hurting tiremen and spectators to tne
ground. The barn was blown to frag-
ments. and nearly every house in Ash
land was shaken, windows being broken
i:alf mile away. Two windows in the
Congregational church were blown in
While service was being held creating
a panic among the worshipers. a crow
bar was blown through the air for seven
blocks, smashing fences and windows.
A board was driven through the leg Of
Fireman Forestal. Silver Neil. a valua-
BILE trotter, was killed by the explosion.
Robbery the Motive for Murder.
The coroner's jury called to investi-
gate the death of John Wren of Manito-
woe, who was murdered at Trevor,
brought in verdict that the deceased
came to his death by being struck in the
head with a blunt Instrument in the
hands of parties unknown TO this jury.
The remains of the man were removed to
kenosha, and held pending an autopsy.
The evidence in the inquest revealed the
fact that robbery was the motive of the
murder, for the pockets of the dead man
had been rihed. The murderers secured
only S4.95. This is known to have been
all the money that Wren had. The evil
dence showed that Wren had not been
drinking during the day. Several war
rants have been issued for the supposed
murderers. but they are issued with the
names of John Doe aud Richard
Roe, and they remain unseryed pending
further examination into the circum.
stances of the mans death.

A prominent Lone. Island gardener
keeps vegetables very successfully by
storing in headless -four barrels which
are sunk in the ground near the house,
the barrel projecting about four inches
above the surface, after which the
earth is packed firmly around and even
with the top of the barrel, so that
surface water will be kept out. The
barrels are filled about two thirds full
of vegetables, then covered with hay
or straw to the top, over which boards
are placed to keep out the rain. 1t is
found that In this way the vegetables
keep until April uninjured by the cold

as when gathered. The csbbages are
kept with particular success, the leaves
being left on and the stump cut close

must be placed where the soil is dry
enough to keep water from standing

we see every day on our streets many people whose faces plainly show impure and impoverished blood. We want everybody in Montgomery to know that Vinol is a splendid blood purifier and blood maker" said MT. Fowler.
 "vinol is the best preparation we ever sold in our store to make pure, rich. red blood, because 1t contains a highly concentrated form all of the medicinal. body building elements of cod liver oil, but without a drop of oil or grease to upset the stomach.
 "Vinol tones up and strengthens the nerves of the stomach and enables it to obtain from the food eaten the ne- cessary elements to create pure, rich, red blood, and in this way every organ in the body is strengthened and invi- gorated, and the skin Is cleared from all dlsfiguring eruptions"

Leggitts face with strand of hair. Screaming out an oath, he leaped to nis | feet, his face livid with rage, and struck at | the brutes head with his clenched fist. moment later he stumbled through the | open door. white-faced, with great drops of precipitation beading his brow. His hand trembled so that he could scarcely light the cigarette butt which was still between his colorless lips. ,..
 The woman on the bunk was tossing rest Iessly, her face flushed with fever. She
 was delirious again, and as her husband | shambled over to her, her eyes opened. but there no recognition in them. He sat down and took her hot hand in his. Her rambling talk broke the stiffness and brought him unutterable relief She | talked of green fields and the loved ones of her childhood: sometimes the scene changed and the wild events of her later life crowded down upon her.
 As the long afternoon wore on he went time and time again to the door and stood
 watching the road till his eyes smarted from
 the glare. For minutes at a time his com panion would her talking. when the fear would seize him again and he would | sit trembling in It's grasp.
 She was literally buring up with the fe- yer. and her rawlings became more violent Once he was forced to grasp her arms and hold her till the unnatural strength spent | itself and she sank back exhausted but conscious. It was the last effort and he knew that the end near. The realiza- | tion that he was to be left alone in the still ness almost turned his brain

Fashion is responsible for many in- ventions. This Is the ease with the manufacture of artificial flowers, for their demand was due to caprice of fashion. In Italy during festival time 1t was decred that flowers should be worn in and out of their season and that their color be retained. Many plans for solving the problem were brought forward and at last some one hit upon the idea of making them of various materials which would resem- ble the real flowers. Later, in the mid dle ages. the artificial so far super seded the natural that both men and women decked their heads with fmita- ton flowers of cambric, glass. paper. wax and metal. The most beautiful artificial blossoms are made in Paris. and their making is one of the. chief industries of that city.

The Great Seal

The statement made by certain his- torian that the great seal of the Uni ted States which is used at the present day by the Secretary of State, who af- fixes it to commissions signed by the President, Is the second of its kind in the possession of the government, Is not quite correct There Have been three great seals-those of 17S4, 1s41 and 1885. The eagle of the 1S41 seal held only six arrows in his sinister talon, having in some unaccountable way lost seven of the original thir- teen. The name of the cutter of the die Is unknown, and the change in the bird was made without authority. The position of the eagles talons is the re-
 verse of natural. Tiffany cut the pres
 ent die, and its heraldic and legal cor
 rectness devolved upon James Horton
