This humiliation was the penalty for
flirting with school girls at the Stone
wall jackson Institute In the city. and
was imposed by Miss Kate Hunt, princi-
pal of that institution. The girls were
confined to their rooms as punishment.
A short time after. during the progress
OF reception, Miss Hunt was introduced
to the guilty boys. When assured that
the girls would be relieved from the re-
mainder of their penalty, young Roose-
Yelt and his companions agreed to Miss
Hunts sentence of humiliation.

Cost of Making Reef.

That the cattle feeder has not been
netting the cost of the beef he has
marketed lately Is an assertion not
opened to dispute. 1t was the theme
Of L. H. Kerrlck Of Bloomington, ILL.,,
one of the most extensive and success
full feeders in the country, at the
dinner given by General Manager
Leonard of the Chicago Stock Yards,
to Illinois editors. Mr.. Kerrick, who
never speaks without preliminary
thinking, gave as his unqualified opin-
ion that the beef supply of the United
States during the next twenty-five
years would not be made as cheaply or
marketed at such low prices as have
prevailed during the last quarter Of a
century. Among the reasons assigned
for reaching this conclusion were:
Appreciations in land values; increase
in acreage devoted to dalrying and 9th
er lines Of extensive agriculture. A
growing commercial demand for corn
has furnished the beef makers with in
expensive raw material in the past

When to Prune.

II carefully and properly done with
sharp tools that make a clean, smooth
cut, 1t makes little difference when
pruning is done provided the tempera-
ture is above freezing. Trees should
never be trimmed when the wood is
frozen, as the wound does not heal
readily, and the stubs dry in, turn
black and make unsightly blemishes
on the tree. Wounds made in June
will probably heal more quickly and
more thoroughly than at any other
season, but the practical fruit grower
is too busy at that time to do the
work. The later in the spring we do
the work-that is, the nearer we ap-
proach the time when the sap Is flow
ing-the less damage will be done by
drying out of the edges of the cut

Back to the Farm.

Things on the farm are changing,
and we already observe, II we watch
the barometer of social life, that there
is tendency to get back to the coun-
try. Fifteen years ago, for instance,
less than 90 per cent Of the population
were moving countryward; In 1900 the
statistics show that 20 per cent were
seeking homes in rural districts, and
it is likely that the proportion now 60
Ing away from the city reaches rs per
cent, says Opportunity. At last, with
Solomon, they are discovering that "all
Is vanity" in the cities; that friend
ships are difficult, that neighbors don't
know the names one of the other that
noise, dirt, confusion are there. and the
struggle to live Is at the desperate
stage all the time. The telephone, the
trolley line, free rural mail delivery
these are mitigating the unsocial side
OF rural life, and the beauty of nature
Is doing the rest. Intelligent men and
women, seeking the health Of their
families, physical, moral and spiritual,
are taking up homes where acres
abound, and are giving to rural life
something 1t has lacked before The
practical farmer finds in these addi-
tions to his neighborhood circle stimu-
lus and cheer. and the children Of the
farm and of the families from the city
find mutual pleasure in association
| The movement Is an all-around good
one. 1t marks a new era in rural life
and change Of inestimable value to
those with courage enough to pull up
stakes and leave the town. 1t is one
Of the most encouraging signs of the
times.-Exchange.

CAUGHT A SCHOOL OF FISH.
Entire Village Turned Out and Made
$4,000 in One Catch.

One day in November several years
ago the good people living on the Mas
sachusetts Bay shore at the end of
Cape Cod We're wrought to the high
est pitch Of excitement by the arrival
of an immense school of blacktish
which were on the flats chasing bait,
as the small fish they feed on are
called, and gradually working inshore.
The news spread like wildfre; village
stores were hastily closed, schoolboys
deserted schoolrooms, and even women
hocked to the shore. The fats along
the coast make out from half to a
mile and a half practically level and
almost dry at low tide, where at high
tide is four to eight feet Of water.
No school of blacktish so large as this
had ever been heard Of. And by good
luck the tide was ebbing.
Hastily the boats were launched,
each taking half dozen men and
boys, those not rowing being armed
with stick and pieces of board In a
quarter of an hour they were in posi-
ton, in half circle and to leeward of
the fish.
"Close in now," came from the "com-
modore," land make all the noise you
CAM And they did, fairly churning
the water with boards and sticks. The
thousands Of squid and herring on
which the blackfish were feeding as.
sisted in this movement by getting
into shoal water as far as possible so
that the blackfsh could not follow
them. The result was inevitable, the
fast ebbing tide soon began to leave
the big fish in such sboal water that
it was difficult for the larger ones to
swim. Gradually the circle Of boa Is
drew nearer and nearer, and in two
hours 90 per cent of the entire school
were stranded on the flats. For weeks
after the villages were engaged in cut
ting up and trying out the oil. The
total catch netted some $4,000, many
of the fish weighing two tons apiece

Notes From the Orchard.

Pruning may be done on mild days.
Study spray pump catalogues. Or
der the necessary outfit quickly.
Bind cloth around young trees to a
safe distance above the snow line and
save them from the rabbits.
Does the orchard need fertillzing?
Queer If it doesn't. Something cannot
continually come from nothing.
Look to the drainage Of the or
chard. See that all tile drain outlets
are open and in working order.
Now Is good time to scrape the
loose bark from fruit trees and white
wash the trunks. A little sulphur add
ed to the wash is an improvement.

ARTIFICIAL STONE
PLANT IS STARTED
Admission Concern viii Turn Out All
Sorts of Building
Blocks.

Admission, April 25.-(Special. THE plant
for the manufacture of artificial stone
and thing of Isaac Houser was put in
operation for the first time today All
the machines are in place in the new
building and today the plant began to
put out the large blocks of artificial
stone. One large machine in Mr.. Hou-
sers plant can be utilized to make
stones from the smallest size to a stone
6x2x11s feet, and larger if necessary. The
plant is also equipped with moulds for
making hexagon thing and will soon be
equipped to make any size thing from
the smallest for stone floors to the largest
for making sidewalks.
He is also equipped for making curb
ing lentels and stills for doors and win
dows and various other characters of
work that can taxi the place of stone.
He expects to add IN 4 short time a new
machine that will be employed to make
shapes for tombstones, which will be a
unique manufacturing enterprise, since
nearly all tombstones are made of costly
marble and this will make a revolution
In the cost of the material. Mr.. Houser
has given much time to the study of the
material
