"pinched. The whitesuited band
was composed of eight students in
white uniforms and rendered
lively music.
At TIC nr'" two-story barn the
visitors found all of the breeds of
live stock on exhibition. For
contrasts one could see, penned in
the same pen, animals like a Tam
worth and a Duroc.Jersey and in
another shorn Merino aud long
wooded Cotswold. Couples under
the yoke were shown. These APP
peared well-matched, a steer and a
pig, a sheep and a turkey, were
two of the couples. Crowds visit
ed the live stock department and
kept the attendants busy answer
ing questions about the different
animals that were to be seen.
In the Dairy building students
explained the evolution of farm
and dairy machinery by means of
models, representing all the stages
of the progress from the old fash
Toned plOw and churn to the latest
labor saving devices. On the sec
Ond floor of the building could be
found the executive office, where the
general manager and superiuten-
dents could he consulted.
A big sign announced the
"Grandest Show on Earth, the
"Greatest Chicken Hatchery Ever
Invented" and a barker with an
enormous horn told in raucus
tones of the wonders of this device.
One cent was charged for admis-
sion, and many saw the performer
on the inside drop an egg into a
complicated looking machine and
draw out live chicken. The per-
former seemed to have solved the
problem of determination of sex in
the unborn animal, as he was able
by turning dial to produce hen
or rooster at his pleasure.
Another tent held the Man with
the Hoe, the Gold Dust Twins, the
House that Jack Built, aud a pair
of very life-like figures, presuma-
bly, couple of ardent lovers, ap
propriately labeled ITO have and
to Hold" The laugh that it
brought was we'll worth the price,
one cent.
In the evening till a late hour
the ''Cinder Path" was crowded
with confetti throwing humanity,
and the lemonade stands and mer-
ry-go-rouud did a rushing business.
1t was a gay crowd. There was
dancing on big, Open-air plat
form to music from the farmer
band. You could dance anything
you pleased from the Lancers to
the clog. Again the barkers
barked and drew the crowds tow

THE GAMMA.


How 1t Grows-Care of the Roots In
Winter.
The Gamma is one of the popular sub
tropical plants, with quite large leaves
and flowers either yellow or red or
purplish and giving much enjoyment
when we'll grown. Rich soil. warm
location and plenty of moisture are
necessary to full success. Equal parts
Of sand, good garden soil and perfect
ly decayed manure, with some leaf
mold or chip dirt, will suit the plants.
If started in the house Cn March or
ApriD it will be best to plant the seeds
singly, each in a small pot SO the
young plants can be turned out readily
in setting in the open ground, as the
roots are very brittle and breaking
them would be injurious. The plant
ing in the garden or on the lawn
should not be until all danger Of frost
Is over.
At the end of the season (after one
or two light frosts) the tops are to be
cut off and the plants taken to the eel
lar or other place secure from freez-
ing. Care is required In taking up ow-
ing to the brittleness of the roots men
toned above. Lifted with whatever
earth might remain on the roots, they
could be placed in box-several boxes
If there be a number of the plants
and set away In the cellar or other
cool place Of safety. Next spring they
can be planted out at the usual time
after preparing a good place for them.
Change Of position is better for most
plants "a new situation. National

TREE MENDlNG.
An Efficient Method of Treating a
Split Tree.

An Efficient Method of Treating a
Split Tree.
The accompanying illustration shows
the manner in which | have just re-
paired King apple tree. Three main
branches had split away from each
other nearly halfway down the trunk,
explains a contributor to Orange Judd
Farmer. The illustration shows but
one cleft, the other two being at the
back. This tree has borne annual crops
Of fine apples for many years and is
still good tree, but for the splitting at
the crotch, which has been working
downward a little farther each year. /
dared not trust it to mature another
crop of fruit without support of some
kind and so hit upon the following
method Of bracing the framework
branches, which appears to be cheap
and successful:
purchased three pulley hooks made
Of fve-eighths inch rods, with a deep
thread on the ends for about three
inches. Half inch holes were bored in
the three main limbs about three Ieet
above the crotch. The hooks were
turned in about half the distance of
the thread, using an iron rod for the
purpose. Three or four turns of No. 8

FORCE OF WATER.
The Great Power That Is Exerted by
a Six Inch Stream.

The Great Power That Is Exerted by
Six Inch Stream.
The effect of the hydraulic motor,
which is now used for the purpose of
removing masses Of earth, we'll nigh
passes belief. A stream Of water is
suing from pipe six inches in dame
ter, with a fall behind it Of 375 feet,
will carry away a solid rock weighing
a ton or more to distance of fifty or
a hundred feet The velocity of the
stream is terrific, and the column Of
water projected is so solid that if
crowbar or other heavy object be
thrust against it the impinging object
will be hurled a considerable distance.
By this stream Of water a man would
be instantly killed if he came in con-
tact with it even at a distance of
couple of hundred feet. At 200 feet
from the nozzle a six inch stream, with
375 foot fall, projected momentarily
against the trunk of a tree will in
second denude it of the heaviest bark
as clearly as if it had been cut with
an ak. Whenever such a stream Is
turned against bank it cuts and bur-
rows 1t In every direction, following
out great caves and causing tons Of
earth to melt and fall and be washed
away in the sluices.

FISHERME EN-.
There Are Two Glasses, the Genuine
and the Pretenders.

There Are Two Glasses, the Genuine
and the Pretenders.
1t has sometimes been said that fish
ermen cannot be manufactured. nhis
is true to the extent that nothing can
supply the lack of certain inherent,
constitutional and Unborn qualities or
traits which are absolutely necessary
to a fsherman's makeup. OF course
there are many who call themselves
fishermen and who insist upon their
membership In the fraternity who have
not in their veins drop Of legitimate
fisherman blood. Their self asserted
relationship is nevertheless sometimes
seized upon by malicious or ignorant
critics as permitting the assumption
that the weaknesses and sins of these
pretenders are the weaknesses and
sins Of genuine fishermen. But in
truth these pretenders are only inter
lopers who have learned little fish
language, who love to fish Only when
they bite" who whine at bad luck,
who betray incredulity when they hear
rousing fish story and who do or
leave undone many other things fatal
to good and regular standing. They
are like certain whites called squaw
men who hang about Indian reserva-
tons and gain certain advantages in
the tribes by marrying full blooded In
dian women. Surely no just person
would for a moment suppose that gen
uine Indians could be treated fairly by
measuring them according to squaw
man standard. Neithe can genuine
fishermen be fairly trea' ID by judg-
ing them according to the standards
presented by squaw fishermen. From

The Eye of a Child.

Who can explain or fathom the won
drOus instinct Of the child? Lying in
the arms of it's nurse, in it's carriage or
elsewhere, its large, round, wondering
eyes roam over sea Of faces till sud-
denly its features break into a sweet
smile, baby laugh dances in it's eyes,
perhaps the tiny hands are extended.
and the little body gives a bound as
though it would thrc itself through
space. What has hlppened? 1t has
recognized friend, nothing more and
no less. It makes no mistake. Wiser,
perchance, in that moment of inexperi-
enced helplessness than 1t will be years
afterward, when the world and its in
mates have been studied In the light
OF instruction and experience, it's love
offering Is seldom If ever mistakenly
presented. By what power is this child
love directed? By what subtle inhu-
ence does it see and know what in
after years it may strive in vain to
discern?

CARLYLE and the A.

Carlyle as a schoolmaster was a
terror to evildoers. Even the biggest
and boldest boys wilted when he
growled out "dunce" or "blockhead.'
He did not thrash often, as his scowl
was enough to hush a whole school,
but when he did thrash he meant BUSH
ness. One day joiner passing along
the road heard the most piteous bowls
and cries for mercy and help coming
from the schoolhouse. Rushing in and
handing his ak to Carlyle, he exclaim-
ed:

The Poison IVY

The poison Ivy is a great and in
creasing nuisance on many farms. We
have evidence Of this In numerous in
quiries as to how it may be eradicated.
Our answer to such inquiries cannot be
very satisfactory, as there is no easy
way Of doing 1t. We recommend the
frequent cutting of it close to the
ground and when feasible to cover it
after cutting with straw or spoiled
hay, so as to smother 1t out. It is
easy to root it out by frequent plow-
ings in the open fields, but along fence
rows that Is impossible If well estab-
lished along Virginia worm fence,
you might as well let it go.-Farm
