Trough and Fence Posts.
In building watering trough Of con
crete a good foundation of gravel
should first be laid and then form Of
boarding fitted tightly together of the
desired shape and size be erected See
that the form is practically water tight
and well braced to guard against col
lapse. Mix your concrete with sharp
clean sand and well washed gravel or
broken stone and the very best cement
obtainable l always use portland CO
ment Mix in the following proper
tons: One barrel cement, two and a
half barrels sand and live barrels
stone The stone should not be larger
than two inches in diameter and the
most of them not over half an inch

Cowpea, Soy Beans and Hairy vetcn
In the North.

COwpea, Soy Beans and Hairy Vetcn
In the North.
BY C. D. SMITH, Michigan
Among the varieties of cowpeas these
are recommended for such Michigan
farmers as need them to pillow under to
enrich the soil in nitrogen: The Iron,
the New Era, Whippoorwill and Black
eye. They must be planted late in the
spring, when the ground is fairly
warm, as they do not grow we'll in cool
weather. They do not develop ripe
seed except in unusually warm sea-
sons, with frosts late in the fall.
Soy beans are now grown in all parts
Of Michigan. The tests discriminate
between varieties designed to produce
abundant forage and those bred to pro-
duce abundant seed OF the former the
medium green, early black and yellow
are leading sorts. Of the latter the
Ogemau, the rather small Ito San and
government 9413 are good types. The
plots were too small to make the ex-
periments, comparing varieties, of
great weight
The hairy vetch has been grown at
the station for good many years. 1t
has been used as Il green manure and
as forage crop. 1t has not been a
success in the latter capacity. Sheep
were hurdled on the vetch, but would
not eat it. 1t was then tried as a soil
ing crop, but neither cattle nor sheep
seem fond Of it. 1t was cured as hay,
but again the stock refused it.
Varieties Of yetch.
There are sold in the markets great
many species of vetch seed under the
name of winter vetch, hairy vetch or
villOus vetch. The results of COM
parative trials of these vetches at the
station show that at least eight Of
them produce but small amount of
green forage, although they ripen
abundant seed. Of these the Vicia pic
to was fair sample, Towering in
early July and fruiting in the middle
Of August.
On the other hand the v canadensis,
angustifolia and peregrina were three
vetches that yielded abundant foliage

Finally the biennis, the Louisiana
vetch, the gerardii and globosa have
SNOWY red or blue flowers and furnish
a tangled and heavy mass of green
forage. The horse bean, as the Y. faba
is generally called, is totally unsuited
to Michigan climate, although of great
value in England.
Farmers are warned that the vetch
has become weed difficult to eXtermi-
nate on the college farm and elsewhere.

HORROR AT TRENTON.
Hundreds View Scene the Wounde
Doing Well.

Trenton, Tenn, April 16. The
tragedy of yesterday is not lessened
in horror. The injured in the city
are all in better condition this
morning, but some have not recov-
cred from the nervous shock. The
most remarkable case is that OF
John x. Pearce, with head and face
terribly mangled, cheek and lips
torn from face. a hole in skull and
other mutilations. He recognizes
the voices of his friends and talks
nationally. Mr.. Mitchell, it is
thought, may recover, and other
cases are considered hopeful.
The dead were buried to-day.
Mr.. Arnold, who was with Mr..
Phelan when the gun was fred,
was taken to Eaton yesterday and
the remains were buried there to-
day. Mr.. Arnold leaves a wife and
five children.
DR.. John Parker, who was in the
rear end of the city meat shop. near
the warehouse, at the time of the
explosion, lived few hours, He
was one of the oldest citizens Of
Trenton, but remarkably well pre-
served for man of nearly eighty
years. He was of strong physique
and hardy constitution. He was
highly esteemed for integrity Of
character. The newspaper which
he was reading at the time was

Ridley, colored, recovered $l, 900
for death of her husband while
working on the yard of the road at
Union City. The deceased rushed
upon the track to rescue Henry
Clogs, a white boy about s years
of age. The boy escaped, but
Ridley slipped upon the track and
fell, was struck by the engine and
killed, The question is as to
whether the deceased exercised
contributory negligence in rushing
upon the track to save the life of
another. The court has held that
damage lies where a third party
acts to save life, unless rashness or
recklessness showing contributory
negligence is shown. There is no
reversible error. Case is affirmed
with costs.

SUBURBAN ELECTRIC
Enthusiastic Railroad Meeting in
Union City.

Union City.
The Commercial Club held a very
interesting and enthusiastic meet
ing in the Mayors office Monday
afternoon. Quite a number of gen
tlemen from the lower part Of the
county were present, as was also a
Mr.. Reed, a railroad contractor,
who is at present engaged in build
ing an electric line from Paducah
to Cairo. Mr.. Reed made talk
and gave many facts in regard to
building and equipping such lines,
and estimated the cost of building
and equipping an electric line from
Paducah Junction to Union City
and on to Tiptonville distance Of
about 40 miles at something like
SIS, 900 per mile, and stated that
after about 80 per cent of the
amount had been raised from sub
scriptions and stock sold the road
could be bonded for an amount suf-
icient to complete same.
Several enthusiastic talks were
made and everyone present heartily
favored the building of the road,
and the route from Union City to
Troy and on out by Hornbeak
seemed to be the best and most
practical way suggested. However,
nothing definite as to the routes
could be determined until after the
Official surveys have been made.
After the various phases of the
question had been discussed, Hon.
Lexie S. Parks offered a motion
that the secretary, DR.. w. M.
Turner, be authorized to write to
the officials of the It. c., NJ. & O.
and N, c. & st. l.. roads and to
Eastern capitalists and railroad
promoters and say to them that the
people of Obion aud Lake counties
want road built through this rich
timber and agricultural belt and
that they are ready to offer and
pledge to any party or corporation
who will build the road free right
of-way from Paducah junction to
Tiptonville and cash subscription
of 100000. The motion was'unan-
imously adopted.
This proposition is clear, clean
cut without any strings to it land
those in position to know seem to
think there will be little trouble in
finding parties to take hold Of the
enterprise.
The meeting adjourned subject
to the call of the chairman, w. H.

VIKING SHIP RARE FIND.

archaeological interest than was, at first
supposed. Although not as large as
had been expected it will be impossi-
BILE to transport the vessel intact to

and again be put together there. The
vessel. which had evidently belonged
to some great sea king, is richly orna-
mented and contains a number of in
teresting articles, among which are a
loom and some splendid woven tapes
tries. reminding very much Of those of
BayeuX; a beautiful carved sleigh,
many artistic implements and a rich
ly ornamented four-wheeled carriage,
all Of which tend to show the high
state of culture of the Norwegian
Vikings. Nearly everything. even the
tapestries. is well preserved, though
Prof. G%ustafson. who has charge Of
the work of digging out the ship, is
of the opinion that the vessel was
built before the time Of Harold Haar-
fagre; that is to say, more than eleven
centuries ago.

AN Old MEDIdhT
IN "A NEW FORM, PHYSICIANS
ARE PLEASED.
The Manager Of the Red Cross phar-
macy Says: vinoi 10 a New
Form Of the Oldest and Best
Tonic in the World.

Science conferred q great boon on
humanity when two eminent French
chemists discovered how to extract
from the Gods liver all the curative
elements contained In cod liver oil, but
without q drop Of oil or grease, and
thus produce Vinol.
1T Is no longer necessary to load the
stomach with old-fashioned greasy cod
liver oil or emulsions TO obtain the
curative properties Of cod liver Gil.
for Vinol Is like taking the kernel from
the nut, the oil or grease in which the
curative elements were envelcped
has been discarded, and we pffcr the
people of Laramie the concentrated
essence Of the medicine found in cod
liver oil, without a drop of oil or
grease to upset the stomach and re-
ltard its work.
For centuries doctors and drug
gists alike have looked upon cod liver
oil as the best tonci, strength creator
and body-builder in the world, but
have acknowledged that its one great
drawback vas the grease which it con-
tanned. With this grease all elimi-
mated. we offer the people of Laramie
in Vinol a perfect cod liver oil prepar-
Iation as delicious to the taste as a
fresh orange
Mr.. j. B. Kenner, deputy clerk of the
superior court, Atlanta. Ga. writes:
"Vinol is the ideal preparation of cod
liver oil; it purifies and enriches the
blood, induces a good appetite, pro-
notes digestion and invigorates every
organ in the body"
Therefore. in the strongest manner
we indorse and guarantee Vinol to in
erase the appetite, cure stomach trou-
bles, give strength to the rundown.

How Flower. Attract Bees.

1t has long been a mooted question
whether insects are attracted to flow.
ers by the bright hues of the petals
or by the odor of the flowers. and re.
cen experiments carried out on quite
an extensive scale seem to indicate
that the perfume is the essential di-
receive agent. 1t is concluded that
insects are guided from a distance to
masses of flowers by their perfume
alone. but that where flowers are
grown singly, insects are attracted
generally by color, and where the dis.
lance is small the odor doubtless as.
sists in attracting and directing the
movements of the flying insects.

against the king. He procured a black

he was not recognized, as a man on a
white pony vas the object Of the pur-
suit. The Buddhists looked upon King
Langa Dharma as sent by the king OF
demons to annihilate them, and 1t is
to celebrate the victory over the king
Of demons that the dance is held. In
the performance demons with hide
