THE YOUNGEST PRISONER.
Chinese Child Held by Government
Authorities for Being Sold
Into Slavery.

The youngest prisoner il the United
States is Yute Ho j. aged five. She
has been a prisoner of Uncle Sam for
more than four years. The crime for
which she is paying the pen llty is the
crime of being girl baby, which in
China is crime indeed. She was
born in an interior village In China,
and her mother was very glad to take
ten dollars offered by woman who
went there from San Francisco to buy
slave girls for the San Francisco
Chinatown.
The buyer knew her bargain, for
what were the risks of the child's
aeaph to the possible $4,000, 5000 or
$4,000 she would bring in dozen
years or SO? She was young enough,
too, to have her feet bouni to be
2almed of as of better class than
that from which most slave girls
come.
She was happy, this slave dealer,
when she sighted San Francisco on her
return journey, and she shufled easily
along the pier when she left the boat.
The inspectors all knew her, for she
had Ieen back and forth many times.
It was because they knew her that
they questioned her about the little
bundle in her arms She told them
the baby was her own, for it is lie
that comes first to Chinaman's lips.
This was her undoing. In the court
she added lie to lie, but in the end
the judge knew that the baby had not
been born to her. She had no right
to bring it in without papers, and she
had not thought of this. The infant
could not be deported, because no
amount of questioning could make the
woman reveal the home of the child.
Besides, the judge did not see that the
child would be better off with a moth
or who would sell her for ten dollars
than with woman who would pay
that for her. On the other hand, she
could not be entered, and babies under
year are too little to 60 to Jail. At
length the judge decided to turn his
little prisoner over to a mission that
makes business of rescuing Chinese
slave women, with the agreement of
10 cents a day for her board. In the
four years she has been at the mis-
sion Fute Ho ii has become the pet
of the household, and it seems to be
an instance of the punishment fitting
the crime.

LIGHT AND SHADE EFFECTS
Well Formed Shade Tree Must Be
Open to the Sunlight on
All Sides.

The power Of leaves to evaporate
water is regulated by their exposure
to the sun. Some leaves on the sun
ny side of tree transpire three times
as much water as those on the shady
side of the tree, while in some vari-
cites of trees, the leaves on the sun
ny side transpire ten times as much
as do the leaves on the shady side.
It is easy, therefore, to understand
how greatly the trees need the sun.
The passage of the water through the
leaves, is natures way of conveying
plant food to the leaves, where it is
elaborated and prepared by being COM
bined with the carbon of the air for
the work Of cell building. Other things
being equal, we find the tree growing
more on the sunny side than on the
shady side, as the work of cell build
ing is facilitated by the action of heat
and light. If a man desires a we'll
formed shade tree, he must see that
that tree stands alone, and that as
much as possible it gets sunshine from
all sides. He need not suppose that ne
will get symmetrical tree If he plants
1t so near to another tree that part Of
it is always in the shade. A tree will
develop it's branches on the side where
1t gets the light, and will develop but
little on the side where it is shady.
On the shady side the branches will
be thin, and the general outline I'M
slightly. In the north temperate zone,
says the Farmers Review. a tree in the
summer time, If comparatively isolat-
ed, will receive the sun on all sides of
it. In the early morning it will re-
ceive the sun on the north and east
side. in the middle of the day, on the
east, south aad west sides, and late in
the day on the west and north sides.
This is an admirable arrangement for
the symmetrical development Of the
tree. Man interferes with it when he
tries 10 put too many trees in certain
place.

band of the bark, from one-Quarter to
one-half inch wide, with bud. A cor
responding piece of bark on the stock
&c be budded is removed and the ring
bud put in its place. It is then tied
with common raftia or twine and left
until it sets, when the bands should
be cut. Budding, says Farm" and
Home, should be performed as late in
the growing season as possible before
the bark sets.
