LEGUMES AND STOCK
BRACING A POST.

Oftentfmes it is necessary or polite to
curve the farm fence at a certain point
and those who have built such fences ap-
preciate the difficulty of setting the post
at the sharpest point of the curve il will
not pull over. Any of the ordinary meth
DDS of bracing do not seem to answer the
purpose. An excellent brace may be made
by the following plan. Place the post In
position, then dig a hole two feet deep
and about six or eight feet from the post.

Pick or Caterpillar Eqqs.

When the trees are bare Is the time
to hunt the caterpillar eggs and re-
move them from the branches. IL this
can be done in December, II should be
done at that time, because the days
are mild, and boy can climb about
the tree tops without being exposed
to the cold winds that will interfere
with the work later In the winter
The eggs will be found In clusters or
rings obout the twigs and smaller
branches. They are easily recognized,
and cutting them out will prevent the
appearance Of the colonies next spring.
The sooner the work is done the more
certain will the orchard owner be that
the clusters Of eggs will no. be for
gotten. Next spring there will be a
great many things to do, and II Is very
easy not to find time then for work Of
this kind.

In some parts OF the west the laying
down of peach trees Is being practiced
on a considerable scale. A hole is dug
around the tree and this hole is filed
with water. This softens up the
ground and the trees can then be
bent at the roots. They are laid down
till almost level with the ground
Some coarse material. like gunny sack
ing, is throws over them, and over this
is piled the earth. In the spring
after the danger of hard freezes is
past, the trees are taken out of their
protection. This must be done before
growth starts. The trees, when right
ed, have to be propped up and kept
propped throughout the season. The
results have been very good so far,
and much is hoped for from the ex-
periments carried on.

WAY PIPE SHOULD BE LIGHTED.
Subject Of Vastly More Importance
Than Appears.

There has been a little newspaper
How to Light Pipe" This may seem
TO the feminine mind, a trivial matter,
and quite beneath the notice of any
dignified journal
How wrong! For a pipe ill-lit is a
pipe ill-smoked, and pipe ill-smoked
is man made testy and a man made
testy is a man looking out for trouble.
and man looking out for trouble is a
man finding trouble, and a man find
ing trouble is woman In tears, and a
woman in tears is the last word in hui
man dreariness. Never let us be
ashamed to inquire, then, how n pipe
may be lit with the utmost satisfac-
ton to the smoker.
One paper, see, recommends spills.
That is good, but the spills. of course.
must be wooden ones.
Another paper retorts that spills are
OF no sort of use to the man In the
train. This is the kind Of frightfully
true thing that causes a hush in the
noisiest assembly. What. then, should
the man in the train do?
| will tell him. He should carry a
box of wooden matches, and he should
use exactly two matches to light his
pipe. The first one will dry the to-
bacco on the surface, and the second
one will produce the vivid, even glow
beloved of smokers.
The man, by the way, who lights his
pipe with wax match is a bad man
right from the start Never trust him,
dear friend.-Sketch.

Cave Stored Fruit.

A writer on the storage OF
apples for winter keeping says
that the digging Of cave for
the winter storage of fruit is feasible
and is often practiced In some parts
of the country, but that certain things
have to be carefully observed, to make
the practice a success. The cave
should be dug in clean dirt and In a
place that will receive no drainage
and no seepage. Sand or gravel is
best of ALL The cave should have a
southern exposure. so that the frost
line will be less deep. The top of the
cellar should be just below the frost.
line. Little wood or vegetable matter
should be present. No hay or straw
is needed. The apples should not be
piled too high or the lower ones will
be bruised. Such cave must be built
so II can be entered at will.

TAR AND FEATHERS LONG AGO
Ordered by Richard Occur de Lion as
Punishment for Theft.

We learn from the annals Of the his,
torian Hoveden. who was court chap
lain to Henry III. that the old custom
OF tarring and feathering is one that
dates back to the time of Richard the
Lion Hearted.
He tells us that this renowned king
on setting out for the third crusade,
made this enactment among others,
for his feet:
robber who shall be convicted OF
theft shall have his head cropped af-
ter the fashion of champion, and
boiling pitch shall be poured there
on, and the feathers of cushion shall
be shaken out on him, so that he may
be known, and at the first land at
which the ship shall touch he shall
be set on shore.
This. then, is one of several GUS
toms which has been classed COM

GRAPES,

SFdpc6.
As q popular fruit the grape stands
next to the apple. When a man buys
q package of apples or grapes
he generally knows what he is
getting Grapes on the Chicago
market are of more uniform
character than any other fruit.
During the fall months baskets OF
grapes are sold by the thousands,
daily, and almost always the buyers
are satisfied with them. This year
they have been quite high from the
consumers standpoint, this being due
more to the fact that there has been
a big demand for them than to any
shortage of supplies
Grapes are grown over a very wide
ran.-e OF latitude, and every year new
vineyards are planted. II is now esti-
mated that the area in grapes is in
the neighborhood of half million
acres. California is the great grape
grower, and that state grows about as
many grapes as all the rest of the
United States put together. The larg-
est single area planted to grapes Is
that known as the Lake Shore Grape
Belt In New York and Ohio This be-
gins at Brocton in New York, and ex-
tends to Sandusky in Ohio, and is
limited on the north by Lake Erie. On
the south It extends to Lake Chau-
tauqua. In this region nearly all of
the farmers are engaged in the grow
ing OF grapes. The railroads are able
TO furnish the growers with the best OF
SHIPPING facilities, and every day dur
Ing the grape-growing season whole
train loads OF grapes go east and
west toward the great cities, where
most OF the grapes are consumed.
AT the present time there are hun
dreds OF varieties OF grapes being
grown In this country. They are, how
ever, descended from four chief fami-
lies: Wits labrusca. known also as the
Fox grape; Wits festivals (summer
grape); Wits cordifolia, sometimes
called the Frost grape, and Wits vini-
fera, the kind generally grown in Eu-
rope. There are quite a number OF
other species, but none that have
amounted to very much in cultivation.
The entire grape growing industry
mas grown up In about So years. In
1870 no more than two varieties OF the
grapes now grown we're known here.
The greatest advance has been made
within the past so years. Some of the
new grapes have been produced by
hybridization, but the most progress

Joyful SONG OF THE CRICKET.
Its Remembrance Almost Stirs Maine
Editor to Poetry

GullOT 10 FOctiy y
The song of the cricket ~ associat-
ed with some of the most joyful
events in life. with full granaries and
heaping cellars, with bending or
chards. where squirrels scamper and
cough along the walls, with hazy hills
and misty wales, with mellow sunlight
and silver moonlight, with kissing
parties in the old farmhouses. and
with seeing the rosy-cheeked girl
home along the country road, and
with standii g by her side at the front
gate. until the old stars went down
in the west and new stars peeped
above the eastern hills.
How the crickets did sing on those
nights, And they said Cheer up" as
plainly as could be, Why any fellow
should wish to cheer up, or how he
could possibly need to cheer up, when
standing close up alongside Of nice
girl to keep the bears away, is ques-
ton that we refuse to answer; and 1t
does not matter in the least. for If the
crickets had cried for us to feel bad
we should have disobeved them and
would do so now, if we had the
chance-Bangor News.

TROLLEY LINE COUNTER PROPOSITION

The trolley line committee held
a meeting yesterday afternoon at
5 O'Clock, and Mr. II O. Boat
wright was authorized to write
Mr.. Edward Kennedy that the
committee has twelve thousand
dollars in stock subscriptions in
sight and Is willing to tender same
to him provided that he will give
bond for the performance Of his
part of the contract. If this is &C.
ceptable to him be is further re-
quested to come to Bryan and To-
cate specifically the land be wants
for terminals. These are the main
features of the committees coun-
ter proposition, which leaves the
trolley line proposition in Mr..
Kennedy's hands, and his decision
j. awaited with interest.
In the event this proposition for
trolley line is not carried out:
the Eagle learns that New York
parties are interested 10 the pro-
posed line and watching develop
ments, and that something may
result from this in the future.
This has, however, had no atten-
ton from the local committee, all
negotiations being centered in Mr..
Kennedy's proposition, which it IL
hoped will be successful.
