Rust Exp oriment.

A representative of the Forum has
seen some of the wheat plants upon
which botanists at the agricultural
college have been experimenting to
show that the rust of the barberrY
bush can be transferred to the wheat
plant and there develop the stem
rust. On June 4, F. J. Pritchard,
assistant botanist at the A. c.,
marked off some areas on number
Of wheat stems and leaves with india
ink. Between these ink marks he
placed a nun Der of spores of the
barberry rust. Today each spot, So
painted with the spores, shows num-
erous regular rust posrules Of the
stem-rust type. In the leaves these
postules break QUO on both sides.
These infection experiments were
made Upon wheat plants which are
kept in glass house. and the plants
are entirely free from rust of any
sort, except only on the spots upon
which the spores were placed thir-
teen days ago. .5z.5.} z
This is a clear, clean demonstration
that the barberry bush does propagate
the stem rust of wheat and these ex-
perimentss alone are sufficient eyi-
dence to condemn the planting Of
this shrub. Fargo Forum.

mated that over 600 have united with

F1ur Babies at One Birth.

E. Reilly had presented her hubsand

boy, all of whom were alive and cry

The little ones were perfectly form

and there Is no reason to suppose that
their chance of reaching maturity is

1t is confidently asserted that this

birth, has never been equaled in

Rates Reduced.

St. Paul dispatch says that inde-
pendent oil dealers have won one
hattie in their fight upon the Stand
ard oil company. The railroad and
warehouse commission granted their
petition for a reduction of freight
rates. The independents asked for a
reduction of rates on kerosene and
gasoline in less than carload lots.
They wanted such consignments as
fourth instead Of third class freight.
The granting of the petition means
reduction of about % per cent and
puts rates on about the same footing
as that enjoyed by the Standard Oil
company for its shipments in car lots.
The change will be made August l..

GREAT APP1AN WAY.
A ROMAN ROAD WHICH A6OUNDs
IN ROMANCE.
Soldiers and Slaves, Mourners and
PIeasure-Seekers,I dIers, Busy Trad
ers and Lovers, All These Have
Travelled Its Paved Surface.

Some things remain unchanged
Throughout the ages while others are
merely transitory despite an appear
ance of the greatest durability. Love
and hate, joy and sorrow, are the same
to-day as they were when man first
discovered he was creature with
powerful emotions. Like the brook in
the poem, they go on forever, regard
less Of mans coming and going. The
things man has built with his hands,
On the contrary, no matter how great,
have almost invariably crumbled to
dust with the passing of time, leaving
scarcely a trace of their existence.
On the plains of Asia Minor, along
the valley Of the Nile in Egypt, and
in other of the older inhabited parts
of the earth, there have at different
periods in the remote past sprung into
other great cities, each filed with its
busting throngs of people intent on
doing the many things that 90 to make
up urban life. To-day, there scarce re-
mains of these one stone upon another
to mark the place Of their being. All
have persisted. Wood and stone, brick
and mortar, have fallen into decay;
and of the many homes that once shell
tered happy families, of the imposing
piles that housed the multifarious
branches Of trade, and Of the magnifl-
cent structures erected to crafty
mans desire for suitable places in
which to worship, nothing remains In
most instances except a few half
buried fragments. In place of these

dead cities Of the past there are other
and fairer ones thickly dotting the sur
face of the earth, but they are all the
result of those never-dying emotions
constantly squirting man to activity.
This constancy of the human emo
tons Is key that unlocks the treas
ure house Of all romances Of the
past. Because Of it the lover Of to-day
can fully appreciate the hopes and
fears that troubled the hearts Of 9th
er lovers in the far distant past. He
knows that despite a difference in
dress and language and environment
they were moved by feelings similar
to those that send him a-wooing, and
he understands. The soldier, too,
when he goes to war to-day, is actu-
ated by the same motives that domi-
mated the minds of those who fought
80 fiercely Of old. Patriotism, hero
ism, hatred Of an enemy to the father
land-all these sentiments are un-
changed. 1t is only the outward and
material expression of things that
proves unstable as time advances.
1t is because Of this ability to fully
comprehend the motives prompting hui
man activities in the long ago that
people of the present age are so
strongly impressed when contemplate
ing the ruins Of those ancient places.
There is the Appian way, for in
stance. Who can travel along this an
cient Roman thoroughfare without a
sense of strong heart interest? One
really cares little about who built it.
SO long as the story Of what has taken
place on its surface remains untold,
and yet any reference to the subject
would be incomplete without a brief
mention, at least of the facts regard
ing the road itself.
The Ancient Thorouxhfare.
This celebrated road, which with Its
branches connected Rome with all
parts Of southern Italy, was begun at
the Capena gate in the old Roman
wall by Appius Claudius Caecus, in
812, B. G., and was completed as far
as Capua, distance of 125 miles. in
BOT, B. @. 1t was subsequently con-
dnued to Brundusium, in the south
eastern part of Italy, and was the
main channel of communication be-
tween the Eternal City and the princi-
pal port whence sailed the vessels for
Greece and the east. 1t is remark
able for the substantial manner of It's
construction and the paved surface,
which was made of large and we'll
fitting blocks of black basaltic lava.
Quite naturally, since 1t was the
most picturesque Of all the approach
es to Rome, 1t soon became a favorite
place for those of leisure to walk or
drive. This resulted in such a great
liking for 1t that many Of the wealthy
Romans, at death, made provision for
their remains to be placed near this
favored spot, and in time numerous
magnificent sepulchres were reared
