PARADE FOR CROWN PRINCE
People of Seoul Indulge in Festivities
I'm Honor of Royal
Japanese.

SEOUL Oct 2O.-The climax OF the fes-
tivities in this city I'm honor of the visit OF
the Japanese crown prince was reached
last night in a lantern procession in which
10000 persons took part It was witnessed
by the crown prince of Japan and the
crown prince OF Corea and their respective
suites from a hill near the residency. For
several hours the city OF Seoul. which is
composed of one story houses, appeared to
be intersected by waving streams of coll
ored fire. The procession was divided into
sections corresponding to the various di-
visions OF the eity. Each section was ac-
companied by a band of music. The ma
tional air OF Japan was rendered more fire.
quently than any other piece. The various
sections of the procession finally united be-
fore the gate Of the palace of the Corean
crown prince, and for half an hour the
crowd shouted 'banzai." while the massed
bands rendered the hymn OF the emperor
OF Japan. The festivities lasted almost
the entire night and the utmost good order
prevailed.
The crown prince Of Japan bade farewell
to the emperor and the former emperor Of
Corea yesterday evening. He thanked them
warmly for the hospitality extended 10 him
in Seoul. The young crown prince Of Corea
has formed a great friendship for the
crown prince OF Japan. He accompanied
him everywhere during the last few days
and this afternoon went down to Chemulpo
with the japanese visitor and bade him
farewell on board the japanese warship
in the harbor.

PRESERVING Grapes Fresh.

Those who have fancy grapes should
pack some of the clusters for use at
holiday time. There are several ways
in which they can be preserved, one
of the newest being a French method,
by which wine growers keep the mar
kets supplied with fresh outdoor
grapes all winter. BuncheS of the
finest grapes are gathered when the
sun is hot and cut in such way that
to each bunch a piece of the vine five
or six inches long remains attached.
The bunch of grapes depends from
this stem. A number of wide necked
glass jars are filled with water and ar
ranged in horizontal rows on racks in
the cellar and into these the stems
are inserted, the clusters of grapes
hanging outside. The grapes do not
touch the bottle but are supplied with
moisture from the stems immersed
in the water. The temperature of the
cellar is kept low and uniform and
the water in the bottles is renewed as
fast as lowered by evaporation.
When making new comfortables put
the cotton in cheese cloth, the cheap
est grade of unbleached muslin or any
thin material and tack it in the regu-
lar way. Over this place a covering
of any wash material and tack again.
The last lacking need not be very
close. Then when the comfortable
becomes soiled it will be an easy mat
ter to remove cover and wash.
One who is in search of something
that will do very well with ordinary
care in living room and who has
geraniums and bulbs enough should
try abutilons. They will grow in a
room so dusty that begonia would
shed all it's leaves and so dry that a
red spider would eat UP an oxalis or
a rose But they do need sunshine,
rich soil, good drainage and medium
supply of water. They are very hardy
window plants and will live through
more frost than a geranium. The new
sorts, African, William Mckinley, and
Infanta Eulalia are vast improve

Guide Posts to Success.

Young man, they may tell you about
gold mine and stock companies, but
there is nothing that beats work
plain, old-fashiOned work. You hear
about the men who grow rich by spec
ulation or by means of patent rights"
but you never heard of those who fail
in those enterprises.
Rarely does a man win by luck or
accident. Thousands of young men
think it is not worth while to try to
get start by saving little money
every month, hence they fritter away
ten or fifteen years expecting some
thing to turn up mysteriously to bene-
fit their condition. They discover that
nothing turns up.
They begin to say, whats the
use," and from the inquiry whats
the use" it is easy to drift into a
spirit of Don't care" From Don't
care" the movement downward is
rapid. History does not record fail
ure upon the part of any young man
who admits that nothing can beat
working and saving. Every fortune
began in that way. The time to save
is when times are good and the coun-
try prosperous. That time is now.

The value of conserving the moisture
on fruit lands by mulches through the
winter has long been understood and
is widely practiced, and the value of
winter irrigation for orchards is no
longer questioned. In the arid region
the winters are long and dry, there is
no continuous mulch of snow, and the
orchardist who can not irrigate late
in the fall or occasionally through the
winter is unfortunate.

ers with little care, according to the

any value, it is appalling to notice the
great loss sustained by the farmers
every year from the planting out OF
fruit trees and vines. Farmers should
learn to do their work better, buy bet
ter stock and get it to them in better
condition and thereby lessen this an

Hints on Farm DRAINAGE.

The above is the title of a little
pamphlet issued some time ago by the
Denny-Renton Clay and Coal Company
of Seattle, makers of drain tiles and
all other kinds of clay products. The
pamphlet should be sent for by all
who are interested in the subject of
drainage, because it gives very thor
Ough information and would prove in
valuable in the hands of the farmer
who wants to do little job of laying
tile or digging bitches for draining
his land. When writing to the COM
pany you should inclose 2-cent stamp
to cover postage on the pamphlet.

make excerpts from the book, but the
best way for our readers to secure the
benefit of the information found there
in is to write the company for a copy.
