Ptolemy's Big Boat.

Ptolemy Q'hilopator) was fond of
building big boats. One of these is
said to have been 420 feet long, 81 feet
broad and ~ feet deep from the high
est point of the stern. This vessel had
four rudderS or what some would call
steering oars, as they were not faSten-
ed, each forty-tive feet long She car
ried 1000 rowers, besides 5000 ma
rines, a large body of servants under
her decks and stores and provisions.
Her oars We're fifty-seven feet long,
and the handles We're weighted with
lead. There were 1000 rowers on a
side, and it is supposed that these were
divided into five banks. That this eX-
traordinary vessel ever put to sea is
doubted, but that she was launched
and used at times, if only for display,
several historians are agreed.

TILE DRAINS.
Simple Means Of Increasing the Water
Movement.

Where land requires the use of tile
drains the following hints may prove
useful. A writer in Iowa Homestead
says:
/ will give you my plan Of increasing
the working capacity of tile drain.
l extend the upper end out to fence
when practical, and to the last tile laid
l add an elbow sewer the same size
as the tile, and to the upper end Of
this add enough more to extend above
the surface of the ground. This gives
it air and causes it to draw faster
when it is running full or nearly so.
BY having this vent under or near Il
fence it is out Of the way of stock and
farming tools.
Another thing to do is to go to the
low places in your field directly over
the tile. dig to the tile and uncover
three or four joints and fill in over the
tile with old hay or trash of any kind
cobs are good-and leave it this way
through the winter and spring, provid-
ed there is no stock to get in it. This
will also let the water in much faster.
Before farming begins these holes may
be filled with dirt, leaving the trash in.
Still another good trick might be
mentioned. If you have natural sur
face drain underlaid with tile and wish
to prevent surface washing, dig down
to your tile (where it passes under a
fence is the best place. and take out
one section of tile and pick a hole in
it as large as necessary and replace ii
with the hole upward. Then take an.
other section with the same diameter
as the hole you made and fit it over the
hole as close as possible and cement
around it to prevent dirt washing III
On top of this section set another, and
so on until your last one extends few
inches above the surface. Fill dirt il
carefully, taking care that you do moi
disturb your stand pipe. Just below ol
near this inlet make bank or dan
across the drain so as to back the over
| flowing surface water up enough tt
flow into this sink or inlet
A sink of this kind near a large out
let is very valuable in preventing thu
washing around the "header," or abut
ment. These sinks should be made a
large as practicable. They can b.
screened or grated if necessary.

Let the boy learn to hit the bright
spot with rifle, and if war comes he
can hit the button on the coat of an
enemy the first shot and does not have
to be taught to shoot over again after
he enlists. If he Is familiar with guns,
boats, water and the wild woods, he
will be handy anywhere, and you can't
lose him. ANY boy who has got IA

PLUMS IN THE WEST.
A Lack Of A6aptabiIity In Many Gull
tivated Varieties.

tivated Varieties.
The value of the plum orchard cul-
ture does not seem to be very general
ly appreciated in the transmississippi
region east Of the Rocky mountains, re-
marks a writer in Iowa Homestead
There are several apparent reasons for
this Indifference on the part of grow
ers. One of these is probably the prev
alence of thckets of native wild plums.
Another is the seeming lack of adapta-
bility of many of the cultivated varie-
ties to local conditions.
Growers of the Central West.
Few of the fruit growers of the CEN
trail west have any conception of the
Importance of the plum In the horticul-
tural world unless they have had an
opportunity to see the prune orchards
of the Pacific slope.
The European plum, or prune, has not
been found adapted to successful cul-
ture in the states lying between the
Mississippi and the Rocky mountains
for the reason that the trees and fruit
have been found more or less subject
to attacks of fungous Oseases which
sap the vitality, destroy the productive
ness and ultimately shorten the life of
the tree. Yet there are at least two
good reasons why more extended eff
| forts should be made in the way of Ell
deavor to secure the successful intro
! duction of one or more varieties, either
acclimatized of exotic origin or devel-
oped locally from seedlings-namely
first, because of their superior quality
and second, because of their lateness
in blooming.
Varieties of Plums.
Many of the varieties of plumS which
have been introduced during recent
years have been of the Japanese spe
cies or hybrids between that and some
of the native American species. All OF
these have one fatal defect from the
viewpoint of the practical fruit grow
ers of the region between the Missis
sippi and the Rockies, and that is thei
proneness to bloom too early in thu
season. The European plums an(
prunes. ON the other hand, are equal,
uniform in blooming late. Seeming
ly all of the hybridizers who have at
tempted to develop new varieties o
plums in recent years have used tn
Japanese plum as one of the parents o
proposed cross with one of the nativ
American varieties.

WOMEN OF HOLLAND.
Dutch Feminine Costumes Are Toe
Complex For Words.

Dutch Feminine Costumes Are Toe
Complex For Words.
The women's costume is a trifie too
complex for verbal description, as
feminine belongings usually are, but
the white lace cap which covers the
head from eyebrows to nape of neck
and from ear to ear, curving out In
rounded wings on each side Of her
cheeks, Is always a conspicuous and
Inevitable portion Of a woman's attire.
1t may possibly be that on Sunday
this cap Is trifle whittier or sitter or
daintier than on week days, but the
difference is not very apparent
The ladies assure us there is vast
difference In the quality Of the net and
the amount of handiwork employed,
but the lens made no special note of
that In shape and outline the camera
| finds great distinction between these
| caps and those of Katwyk or Marken
| or Bois lie Due, but between Sunday
and Monday caps in Volendam 1t re-
cords none whatever. For the rest of
the costume feminine Holland asks
above all things apparently very fat,
narrow chest surmounting enormous
! hips, and NOlendam is no exception
to this fashion rule. The invariable
black 'best waist Of the elder women
is usually frightened by a square yoke
of lighter color and material, and the
dark apron or overskirt is topped by
six inches or more of gay plaid or
bright colored band worn over an up-
derskirt of dull blue striped or black
material and uncountable petticoats.
About the throat collar formed of
many rows of heavy dark red coral
beads is fastened by huge silver clasps
and the number of rows, the size and
quality of the beads are matters fo1
feminine pride. Long hair is not the
glory of women in Holland, save per
haps at Marken. 1t is usually hidden
and at Volendam is cut quite close and
entirely covered by tight fitting thicH
black silk cap concealed beneath the
snowy white lace. The younger girls
from the tiniest toddler to the young
meisje, old enough to wed, wear dress
es and caps the exact counterpart OF
their grave mothers, no less full OF
skirt or narrow of chest, but mucl
gayer in color. A group of tiny maid

Farms In Colorado.

Sugar beet growing in Colorado has
been a prominent cause of great in
creases in land values, and in a large
degree the same may be said of fruit
and vegetable farms. Everywhere
farms on which alfalfa can enter into
rotation with other crops are greatly
gaining in value. OF course by far the
largest rates of gain in value have
gone to farms with good water rights
