In granting the franchise to the
telephone company il might he well
to give the matter of rentals of
phones a little attention. While
the charges of the company may be
fair, 1t will be well to put in a
clause prohibiting exorbitant and
excessive charges. A corporation
with franchise in its inside pocket
is not in business with a view of
giving away anything il can obtain
money for. Hence il will not be a
bad idea to not only find out what
the company wants, but what il in
tends to charge for the use of its
phones.

Is Iron a Fertilizer?

It has not been believed that iron
In any form Is what we might call a
real fertilizer In the soil, although we
know that iron gives the color both
70 the soil and TO all the plants pro-
duced upon 1t. There are some ex-
perimenters, however, who believe that
iron sulphate is itself fertilizer. One
OF these men Is a Belgian, who has
been making some experiments on
oats and other cereals. He applied
250 Kilograms OF iron sulphate, and
by It produced the same effect on
oats as did $50 Kilograms OF nitrate of
soda In addition, many weeds were
destroyed by the iron sulphate. The
author attributes the general effect of
the iron sulphate solely to the iron,
and not to the sulphuric acid. We are
sure. however, that most Of our ex-
perimenters, at least those on this side
OF the water, will be very slow In ac-
cepting the conclusions OF this ex-
perimenter. While iron does enter
into the formation of plants, yet 1t is
to very limited extent The advan-
tage resulting from the application as
recorded may be due to some other
element rather than to the application
OF iron.

Brown Rot Of Plums.

Last summer the writer visited the
farm CT prominent fruit grower OF
Northern Illinois. He had a consider
able number of plum trees, but the
fruit was worthless. as II had been
taken by the brown rot. The trees
had bioomed full and the prospects for
large crop OF fine plums had been
excellent. But before the time came
to gather the plums the dreaded brown
rot appeared and soon spread among
all the trees. The plums soon began
to drop, and the ground was covered
In few weeks with hundreds of the
deceying plums. Thousands of the
plums still on the trees we're affected
on one side and It was seen that the
crop was ruined.
This disease is known scientifically
as Monilia fructigena. The spores at
tack not only the fruit, but also the
blossoms, leaves and twigs. The proc
ess OF its development is about as fol-
lows: spore falls on a wet plum
and sticks there. II sends filament
into the skin of the plum. This fla
ment develops into thread-like
growth that permeates the pulp OF the
plum everywhere. 1t is the food-gath-
ering power Of this mycelium or mass
OF threads that causes the breaking

The Help Of Machinery.

There was a time when the farmer
worked all by himself a small farm
and found 1t profitable to do all of
his work by hand. Had there been
machinery at that time. It would
have possessed little value for him,
as he could not have disposed of his
surplus for enough money to pay for
his machinery and leave balance
on the transaction. The transport by
sea was then by sailing vessels and
the transportation over the land by
means largely OF OK teams. We can
not imagine the great grain crops of
today being moved by such means.
II great grain crops had been raised
the grain must have fallen in value
till 1t would not have paid the cost
or raising, or much of IL would have
nodded In the bins. With the prog
ress OF the world came the neces.
sity for the use OF farm machinery.
Inc motive power on the water
changed to steam and great barges
were constructed with enormous car
rying capacity. These could carry
the grain around the world at small
SoSt pei busnel. On tnc lanu nun
dreds OF lines OF railway opened up
the country. and train.loads of grain
are now moved in any direction night
and day. It is no longer possible for
community to produce so much
grain that 1t cannot be shipped out
The commerce of the world will take
all the grain the farmer can grow.
II Is therefore necessary for the
farmer to take advantage OF the ex.
istence Of machinery for farm use.
The price OF grain has fallen greatly
from what 1t was a hundred or so
years ago, and each acre OF land
must therefore be worked at less
cost than formerly. This the farmer
can do only by the use of machinery,
and the more improved the machin-
cry the less per acre is the cost of
handling the land. Every farmer
should therefore study the machine
question and learn IL he is using fair
ly good machines. or whether he is
using machines that are expensive of
labor and effective TO a less degree
than should be found In farm ma
chimes. 1t Is sometimes cheaper to
throw away an old machine than it is
to keep II.

tler no love, but that is no reason why

,ing hard knocks, and your salvation

At this juncture Cronoley, Rogers
tassistant, entered the office.
"Give an ignorant man authority
land he will abuse it," such was the
ease Of Cronoley. He was a great,
Sburly, grizzled Irishman, of the typical
kind. At one time he had been a
sewer cleaner in one of our large
cities. He had killed a companion in
a ft of anger and made his escape
Through the subterranean passages
with a band OF thieves later, and In
turn fell in with the convicts under
Schiller. The king had appointed him
TO the position he now held, and it is
safe to assume that he was the kind
to take advantage OF his power.
CronOley conducted the twain to
their respective working stations. It
divine Rogers true thoughts in as
'signing him to work with the dig
tgers"-in the main, life prisoners, and
for that reason a most desperate lot
of prisoners, whatever they had been
lsentenced for. The reason, then, was

A Question Of Locality,

The practice of Opening up" the
tops OF apple trees is followed by s.
G. Soverhill, Of Northern Illinois. Mr..
Soverhill has been Orcharding In that
locality for about forty years. The
practice Is condemned by Edison Gay
lord, OF Iowa, who has been orcharding
In that state for fifty years. Both men
have had so many years of experience
that II Is not probable that either is
making mistake regarding the pracx
tices allowable In his vicinity. But
this brings us to the appreciation of
the fact that conditions enormously
differ In different localities separated
by only few hundred miles. We
would like to receive communications
from our leading horticulturists In diff
ferent states and different localities of
the same state relative to the amount
OF sunscald In their neighborhoods and
the general practice of heading trees.
The amount of sunscald existing in
a neighborhood does not seem to de-
pend on the latitude. Mr.. Gaylord has
accurately defined the process when
he says that II is due to the break.
ing up OF cambium cells by the alter
nate freezing and thawing. But there
is something more in II than this, for
sunscald seems to be worse in the
colder parts of the states than In the
warmer parts, though even in the lat
ter some freezing and thawing must
go on. We would like to know how
far south sunscald is experienced.

Buy Glover Seed Early.

Usually clover seed Is sown very
early in the spring or even late in the
winter. In northern localities 1t Is sown
on the snow in March and further south
is put In in February. The clover
seed should be purchased a consider
able time before It is used, so that
1t may be tested. This testing
should be done by counting out a
hundred seeds and placing them be-
tween damp woolen cloths inclosed in
reversed plates to keep in the mois-
ture. II the termination is low new
lots of seed may have to be pur-
chased, and this is the more reason
for buying the seed early in the win
ter. Also the testing is more likely
to be done II the seed is purchased
early than If it is purchased late. The
lRte-bought seed Is too apt to be scat
tered on the land without the far
mer knowing whether 1t is fairly
good or not. II 1t fails he does not
know whether the failure is due to
poor seed or something else.
The Jackson herald., 1906-01-18

Rogers was found, and while Offering
no clew as to Pearls whereabouts, he
recommended a call upon the king.
The quartette searched the haunted
house thoroughly first, to satisfy
themselves that the lost ones were not
within its portals, then visited the
kings palace.
The king, not overburdened with a
| surplus OF servants, answered the ring
at the door, himself "Well?" he
questioned, as II at a loss to under
stand why he was paid visit.
Where is Mrs. Lang?" asked Gold
en-, who thought it best to precipitate
hostilities from the start. Schiller
was equally on his mettle. II don't
know that that Is any affair of yours"
was the retort.
Perhaps it ia mine!" said Louis.
The quartette, while conversing, were
following Schiller into his office,
which was the front room off from the
hall leading from the front door,
"She is my wife. desire to know
wher she is.''
Your wishes can't be many-a con-
vict! sneered Schiller. What do I
know of your convict wife?"
1t was with effort Louis restrained
himself from striking the insulting
man.
Listen to me, them" thundered
Rogers, speaking for the first time.
Il know that Mrs. Lang is in this
house. Her husband may be a CON
vict. but she. as a wife, is bound to
receive protection from every honest
man"
That will do. Rogers!" said the
king, very calmly. when you say
Mrs. Lang is in this house, you lie!"
What might have taken place after
this declaration is hard to say
Whether Rogers would have tried
conclusions with his superior or not
never was demonstrated. Schiller had
scarce hurled the threat, when a pierre
ing scream was heard, whose echo
filled the half-empty palace.
Lang made a dive for the rear of the
house. MY wife!" he cried, and had
darted through the hall and into the
kitchen. There he met a sight which
riled his very blood, and made him for
moment very madman. A villain
Gus looking parsonage, dressed in the
sarb OF a guardsman, was struggling
TO keep Pearl from shrieking, by plac-
ing his rough hand over her mouth,
while supporting her In his arms.

his wits to work to get into the graces
OF his Acknowledgment as soon az
possible.
Lang fell under Cronoleys dis
pleasure at once by his wilful clumsi
ness in holding his pick and awkward
ness, generally, and several times In
not too gentle terms was reprlmanded
for loaflng. On one Of these occasions
Louis retorted back; in consequence
Of his sass" he was warned by the
keeper that another offense OF the
nature would mean twenty strokes OF
the cat" AS punishment, instead
OF being allowed to go home for din.
ner at noon, he was compelled to load
up an extra car of dirt during the
noon hour alone, and only given
minutes for rest and a very light
lunch Of dry bread and black coffee.
This was the first day. Lang was
not so sure that the course he had
laid out for himself was the best. but
having started on the plan. despite
any discomfort to himself, he meant
to carry 1t out. In the evening Wilson
and himself were allowed their lib
erty.
Arriving at the house they found It
deserted. No Pearl, no Dr. Hunting
ton; what could 1t mean? In silence
each ate few scraps to appease their
almost ravenous appetite. Something
seemed to warn the lads that a strug-
gle of momentous importance was
about to take place. Waiting until
there could be no doubt but what the
absence of the two was not occasioned
by the fact that they were simply out
walking. Lang and Wilson went to the
home of Golden and stated the case
to him.
Some plot OF Schiller's,- said
Golden, readily. "but what it is is hard
to state. hardly think that he has
dared to abduct your wife from your
home. He knows too we'll the penalty
for such crime here, However. we
will notify Rogers, and if he thinks 1t
best we will call upon Schiller at his
palace"
After a little time spent in search,

Cats PartlcularIy are subject TO Al
tacks When Excited.
When the little white kitten tum-
bled down on the rug with a piteous
'meaouw" the woman, who always
knows what to do, picked her up and
called for the camphor bottle.
'She has tainted, poor little thing"
said the woman. "Camphor will bring
her to-"
And the other boarders laughed. but
the woman continued to administer
the aromatic spirits in her own moth
erly fashion. When the white kitten
had revived the woman sought corrob-
grafton of her diagnosis from the vet
erinary surgeon next door.
"Of course, the cat tainted" he said.
Lots of animals faint. Cats are es-
pecially apt to keel over In moments
Of excitement. These attacks are
sometimes confused with fits, but they
are really fainting spells. and the pa
tient can be brought to with camphor.
Dogs faint, too, and horses. A horse
that faints is usually thought to have
blind staggers or sunstroke, but any
body knowing the animals constitu-
ton can tell the difference and apply
the special treatment required.
