How to Find Fish Bate.

The boy wanted some worms
for bate. He had selected a
promising spot, shady and low
lying knoll, but, though he had
been digging now for fifteen
minutes, not single worm had
his spade turned up.
Here, sonny" said the old an
gler, "take this chunk of soap
and make me a quart or two Of
soapsuds. F"
The boy brought the suds, the
old man sprinkeled them over
the ground, and then he, in his
turn, began to dig. 1t was
amazing. Here, where the boy
before had not found single
worm the old man now discover
ed them in dozens,
"You can find worms most
anywhere, sonny said the old
man, eff you wet the ground
with soapsuds first. The soap,
suds draws them, the same as
molasses draws flies. A weak
mixture of blue yitrol and water
will do the same thing also. -

Mystery in Some Fruits.

The banana is seedless, or near
ly so, and has been for centuries,
though nobody knows why. 1t is
propagated by suckers, and pos
sibly had no seeds when it was
first found in its wild state. The
banana is a modified berry. Gut
ting the fruit through the middle
you will sometimes see very little
brown spots, which are the rudi-
mentary seeds. Occasionally
the banana does actually produce
a few seeds.
The pineapple is seedless, be-
ing propagated likewise from
suckers and from slips. The egg
plant, which is fruit, botani-
cally speaking, is occasionally
seedless. This plant is able to
produce developed fruit whether
the blossom is fertiliZed or not.
Horticulturists are endeavoring
at the same time to rid fruit
plants Of thorns. Some oranges
and lemons are very thorny-for
examples, the high-priced King
orange, which is the very best of
the mandarins. 1t is rarely seen
in this market. The first trees
were brought to the United
States from, Cochin China. In
Florida its thorniness has been
reduced by selecting buds from
the branches with the fewest
thorns. Thorns are Objectionable
because they puncture the
oranges and lemons when TIN
oranges are blown about by tn,
wind. Efforts are being mad
to get rid of the thorns on rasp
berry and blackberry plants
simply for convenience in pick
ing the fruit. The thorns ar
meant by nature to protect til
plant from animals, Gtlltivator
select those plants which happei
to be thornless or nearly so.

The South Ask For More Protection

The growth of Protection sente-
ment in the Southern States is
clearley indicated. The mast rec
cnt expression in favor of that
policy was that Of the Sea Island
Cotton Growers Association at
Valdosota, Ga, a few days ago,
when the following resolutions,
introduced by Mr.. j. E. Webb, of
LowndeS, was unanimously adop-
ted: " Whereas, we find that
Egyptian cotton is coming into
this country in competition with
Sea Island cotton, to the great
injury of the Sea Island cotton
industry; be it Resolved, That
we ask our representative in Con-
grass to try to have all act pass
ed fixing a revenue raising Tariff
on Egyptian cotton, which would
give incidental Protection to Sea
Island cotton growers. Major j.
O. Varandoe, of Valdosota, and
L. J. Appelyard, of Lake City,
Fla, were appointed commit
tee to take up the matter with
Representatives III Congress in
Washington.
The demand is reasonable and
righteous. Cotton is now on the
free list. In the Dingley bill al
passed the House in 1897 provis
ion was made for q duty of three
cents a pound. This duty wa
dropped out of the bill in thu
Senate and was not restored whel
tho bill was returned to TIN
House.
The need of a Tariff has force
itself upon the growers of lon
staple cotton through the larg'
importation of lower priced Egyp
tain cotton. South Carolina, Gee
: rgia and Florida are extensiv
producers of the Sea Island fibel
and naturally ask Protection 70
their products. They ought to &C
il, and undoubtedly they will e

Electricity In Agriculture.

The application of electricity
to general agriculture has been
successfully made in southern
France and has been followed in
Germany on an even greater
scale. Power is provided from
a central plant and motors for
thrashing grain, grinding of
flour, pumping of water, etc,
are rented to proprietors,
who find that the work can be
done more buckley and cheaply
done than by the use of horses.
The application of electricity to
growing seeds has been found ad-
vantageous, such use of the sub.
tie agent having been first made
by the experiment station at Am.

Bait for an Airing.

The insurance men were ex-
changing vacation "reminiscences
down in Cedar street, says the
New York Sun.
"The pleasantest sight | saw
ON the st. Lawrence while | was
up THERE said the red. faced
man, "was an old fisherman we
passed one day in the canoes,
smoking his pipe and with rod
out, anxiously awaiting results.
" What dye fish within asked
our guide as we passed.
" Frogs, of course said the
lone fisherman, calmly.
"The guide broke out in loud
gutfsw. And just then | could
not see why. Then he pointed
out big log that lay in the
stream a little distance away
from the fisherman. He had
neglected to weight his line
sufficiently to keep the bait
down and the frog had come to
the surface on the other side of
the logs, leaped on it and sat
there comfortably blinking in
the sunlight.
"Two hours later we returned.
The frog was still there and the
old fisherman smoked on in bliss
full ignorance of the situation.

suits as cheerfully as that old
chap up on the st. Lawrence"

Graft Pigs EyeIid on Man,

DR.. Stephen Smiths new treat
ment, by which astigmltism and
other defects of the eye are said
to be durable, recalls an amazing
operation which was performed
in Dublin few years ago with the
object of saving an eX-sol-
dier's eyesight. The left eyelid
of Ryan, as the man was named,
had been partly cut away, owing
to disease, but the remaining
portion curled in on the eyeball,
and irritated to such an extent
that the man was speedily be-
coming blind. The oculists de-
cided to try to attach pigs eye
lid to that of the soldier, and in
order that the eyelid might be
taken from the pig just killed
the delicate operation was per-
formed in a bacon factory. As
the blood was pouring from the
throat Of dying porker its eyelid
was cut off by a neat handed sur
geon, washed in antiseptic solu-
ton, and rapidly attached by six
stitches to the remaining portion
Of Ryan's eyelid, which had been
"cut to fit"
No cloroform was administered
to the patient, but COCAINE was
poured into the eye while the
operation lasted.

Not Boond by an Oath.

Some years ago, when Attor-
ney General Moody was district
attorney in Essex county, an
arson case was tried, in which
the late Hon. III. W.. Moulton
was one of the council for the de-
tense.
Among the witnesses for the
prosecution was boy, who tes-
titles that little after nine
o'clock, short time previous to
the discovery of the fire, he saw
the defendant not far from the
building in which it started.
Being asked, on cross examina-
ton, how he was SO sure of the
time, he replied that he looked
at a clock as he came out of a
store and saw that it was nine
O'Clock.
Then he was asked if it was
customary for boys of his age tC
look of clocks TO Gee at what
time they left any store they
happened to visit.
He answered: "My father
told me to be home before nine
O'Clock, and thought | would
see how late it was.
"Then,' said Mr.. Moulton
"we are to believe that you ar,
no nearer telling the truth nov
than you were then to mindins
your father2"
81 am under oath to tell tn,
truth" the boy replied, "and

"Senetor, your dog reminds rae
of my hen. Needing quinine

drug with molasses and rolled it
out into pills. Leaving the
stuff to dry out on the front
porch, went into the house.

swallowed by my hen.
"Of course thought her silly
head would burst wide open.
She simply commenced cackling,
and has been laying two eggs a
day ever since. And do you
