PoULTRY TESTS.

Until quite recently it has been left
to individual initiative and enterprise
to attend to the scientific development
of the poultry industry of the country
and tabulate the results obtained with
different breeds and under various con
ditions of care and feeding. Within
the present year, however, the animal
husbandry section of the department of
agriculture has undertaken a series of
experiments to determine the relative
value of different methods of feeding,
while the Iowa station has added a
regular poultry department In which
the egg producing capacity Of different
breeds will be given careful test I'm.
der the same conditions of care and
feed. The aim in brief is to do for the
poultry interests of the country and
state what the station seeks to accom-.
plish for the swine, sheep and cattle
interests through these respective de
partments. The results obtained in
these poultry tests will be reliable and
impartial, inasmuch as they will not be
conducted with a view to feathering
the nests of the raisers of this or that
particular breed.

The old Great Eastern.

The last days of the Great Eastern
were certainly sad, considering the pur-
pose for which she was designed and
the great work she did in cable laying.
For some time before she was broken
up on the mud of the river Mersey,
near Liverpool, she was on view as a
show ship. One firm of Liverpool
clothiers hired her for a season, and in
addition to using her for its advertising
purposes made use of her for catchpen-
ny shows. In the large cable tank a
circus was fitted up and performances
given at so much a head, while other
exhibitions of the Coney Island type
were spread all oyer her deck.

HARVESTING APPLES.

Our orchard experience this yea
leads us to believe that 1t would b
advisable to make two pickings of ap
pies at from two to three week
apart. The first time through the rip
est and largest fruit could be picked
off and marketed This would not
only result in saving practically all Of
the earliest maturing fruit, which usu-
ally falls to the ground and is wasted,
but it would also serve to relieve the
tree and enable it to mature the re-
naming apples in much better shape.
Where there are few apples on the tree
this would not be necessary, but
where the tree is oyerfull it is COM
PEELED by a natural law to drop much
Of its load before it can mature that
which remains. In such cases the two
pickings have much to commend
them.

great staple crop in the northern states
cotton holds sway in the south. 1t Is
interesting to note in this connection
that the export record of the United
States for the fiscal year just ended
shows that the value of cotton in raw
and flashed form exported from this
country during the last year exceeded
$500, 100000, surprising by far the
value of any other article of merchan
disc sent out of the country. The ex
ports of breadstuffs of all kinds aggre
gated only $1S6,000,00o. of provisions
$211, 100000 and of iron and steel
manufactures only $161000,000. The
increase in cotton exports has been
very marked during the past i've years
amounting to SO per cent or over $1o0,
100000. AS a purchaser of raw cotton
the United Kingdom leads with $177,
100000 worth, Germany takes $101,
100000 and France $45.000,000, while
in the matter Of manufactured cotton
products China is our best patron, tax
ing $30,0O0o00 worth out of total Of
$50, 100000. The showing made is
fine one and bespeaks the remarkable
era of prosperity which the south Is

The Shopping Sex,

The Englishwoman never knows
when she enters a shop what she
wants. She is swayed by impulse,
grabs wildly at everything she likes
or thinks she likes and probably comes
back and grumbles the next day. She
is also completely lost if the shop
walkers do not dog her every footstep
to implore her to slook at this charm
ing toque' or condescend to glance
at this special line in cheap skirts"
But the American woman resents any
suggestion that she does not know
what she wants, likes to be left Sc
verely alone and If interfered with
may abruptly leave the shop. But,
while she is less irritating than the
Englishwoman, she is far more exact

THE FRUIT TREE AGENT.

From now on until snow flies and per
aaps later is the harvest season of the
persistent, perennial. perIpatetic fruit
tree agent. While this chap is as wise
as a serpent, 1t cannot be said of him
that he is as harmless as dove. He
Is not gadding about over the country
for his health. It's the granger's coin
be is after, and he will ram just as
much of it down his jeans as his own
nerve and brass, coupled with his vic.
TINS gullibillty, make possible. He
usually does the most business In dis,
tricts far removed from the nursery
he represents, where he and his house
are little known. In addition to being
guilty Of palming off on his unsuspect-
ing customers trees and shrubs that he
positively knows will not grow in the
latitude where he offers them for sale
he often sells apple, plum and other
trees that are not at all true to name
a fraud that it may take years for the
buyer to uncover. In view of num-
Der of rank frauds Of this general type
that have come under our notice we
are convinced that the only safe course
to pursue is to give these fellows a
wide berth They regard neither God
man nor the devil, much less their I'M
sophisticated would be victim. It is
as rule, true that it usually costs PEG
pie who get swindled by these fellows,
even if there are good grounds fol-
damages, more to recover what they
have lost than the amount involved in
the swindle Ii these fellows should
talk you up to the point where you feel
you really must have an order of fruit
trees, politely tell them that you viii
place it with your nearest reliable
nurseryman, who can be counted upon
ninety mine times out of hundred to
give you better stock at much less
price.
