1903. From the reports Of that year
it appears that 267, 027 cattle, 274,390
calves and 2,O47,77O sheep were
slaughtered at the city abattoirs and
produced 15e,007,850 Kilograms Cor

81, 292, $50 Kilograms exported. Some
of the choicest of French beef goes to
England, where the fillets and other
prime cuts are in demand for clubs,
hotels, and the best class of restau-
rants. During the same year there
were killed 282,5O8 hogs, which yield
ed 27,657,350 Kilograms (58,080,435

When Is an Old Maid7

When does a girl become an old
maid? This question, blunt and shorn
of delicate innuendo, is now figuring
in the somnolent discussion of Phila-
delphia society. One might say that
a girl becomes an old maid when she
fails to marry betimes, but that is not
the point. What is the exact year
that ushers in spinsterhood and closes
forever the gates of youth? Of course,
this is not matter in which man
has any word to say. No rational
wearer of trousers would tempt fate
and the scorn of femininity by at
tempting a suggestion, for any arbi-
trary dead line would necessarily
bring down upon the luckless mascu-
line head storm of reprobation. 1t
has been left to the women them
selves to brave the peril. And they
have placed the age at 40 years.

Earnings Of Novelists.

Authors earn much less in France
than in England. The late Sir Walter
Besant ten years ago estimated that
there were SO novelists in England
who earned upward of thousand a
year. There are now probably nearer
a hundred and fifty; while in France
there are almost certainly not more
than so who make a living at all. An
English novelist Of standing will re-
ceiye eighteenpence on every copy OF
book sold. Some novelists receive
two shillings. Emile lola. who touched
high water mark in France, got a
franc, which is rather less than ten
pence. Seven pence halfpenny is
considered excellent pay, and four
pence and fivepence are common.

Scarcity of Farm Laborers.

Reports from different parts of the
country say that farm laborers are
very scarce. This must continue to
be the case, for the good farm labor
ers are those that have had expert
ence in farming. More and more the
farmer must turn to machinery for
the supplying of the lack that comes
with the scarcity of farm laborers
This drives to the vicinity of the
cities and large towns such industries
as growing sugar beets and raising
onion sets, both of which require
much hard work. From some Sec
tons come reports that the farmer is
doing what work he can do himself
and letting the rest go. This is never
profitable. 1t accounts for the fields
of corn and other products that are
seen to be overgrown with weeds.

LEAVES BEING CUT OFF.
Section Of Horse-chestnut Twig En-.
Iarged.

of the winters winds, but probably
the greatest advantage to the tree is
the very much smaller surface for the
evaporation of water. During cold
weather all plants absorb water very
slowly and probably the greatest dan
ger the tree has to meet during the
winter is that more water will be lost
by evaporation and Transportation than
can be supplied by absorption. Then
the vital process of food manufacture
is almost entirely stopped by cold
weather and hence the work Of the
leaves may be said to be done as the
autumn temperature lowers.
The process by which leaves are
removed from the trees is an interest
ing one, although they arc neither
pushed off by the newly-formed buds
nor loosened by the frost. In order
to understand this process, it is neces-
sary to examine the structure of the
petiole where it joins the twig. The
horse-chestnut shows the various parts
very plainly. The central portion of
the twig is a cylinder of woody fibre,
which, during the life of the tree, con-
veys the prepared food in a downward
passage, the outer portion or fibres of
the bark conducting the sap in it's up
ward fow One or more strands of
woody conducting fibre passes out
into the petiole of each leaf (A). AS
the season advances and preparatory
to the falling of the leaves a layer of
thin-walled cells forms at the base of
the petiole OBJ. These cells are very
similar to the cork cells found in the
bark of the tree and check the pas
sage of all fluids except through the
central strand of fibres. Through this
central strand most of the prepared
food passes from the leaf to the tree,
there to be used in growth or stored
for anonther season, leaving in the
leaf only useless waste products. As
the cutting off layer is completed
many of the cells in the center break
down and nothing holds the leaf in
place excepting the fibres of the cen
trail strand, then light breeze or even
the weight Of the leaf is enough to
snap this slender thread and the leaf
fiutters to the ground. The cells which
cut off the leaf now form a protecting
layer excluding all moisture from the
twig.
Trees vary greatly with respect to
the formation of this cutting off layer,
says the Montreal Herald; in some
like the horse-chestnut it is thick and
corky, being easily seen by the naked
eye, in the ash, butternut and many
others it is well devoped, while in
some like the beech it is scarcely
present at all.
