Prizes for Farmers.

Austria provides an object lesson In
dealing with waste lands. Prizes are
given to farmers to encourage them 20
recover waste lands and lay them down
as pasturage, and also to erect shelters
or stables for COWS in high attitudes.
The importance of this may be seen
from the statement that one-quarter of
the total fodder required for cattle and
horses in the empire is derived from
Alpine districts.

Profit from the Garden.

The amateur gardener. whose love
for flowers is often disproportionate
to her means of buying the new sorts
she covets, may often make her garden
return profit in cash, as well as in
satisfaction.
Cannas are so popular that there is
always ready market for good, we'll
grown tubers, especially for the dark
colors. By starting in with good stock,
and keeping it true to name, or even
by having good plump roots that are
mixed" one may often make advan-
tageous sales to neighbors or to near
by seedsmen. They multiply quite rap
idly, but the demand, at present, seems
to keep pace with the increase.
The secret of success is to have the
tuhers sound and firm. And this is
secured by giving them proper care
through the winter. Pack them in sand
in a dry, frost-proof cellar. They will
keep firm and plump, affording Gus.
toners ample proof of their intention
to grow.
Dahlias, too, are in favor again, and
are shown in some charming new col
Orings and forms. The same treatment
applies to the care of these tuhers
through the winter. -.
Gamma seeds are very hard to germi-
nate, and, while stock may be raised
that way, it is always doubtful how 1t
will turn out. 1t may prove inferior,
so the best way is to depend on the
propagation Of the roots

The oldest man in Norfolk, Conn, is

had a needle travelling about all over
his body. Although Mr.. Butler says
that he has never been sick day in

tied with strange pains in various

came in his arms or legs he thought
them pleurisy, and when they came in
his stomach he spoke OF them as a
"crick' But the doctor who took the
needle from the old mans foot said
that all Of these pains were caused by
the travels of the needle, for surgeons
have found out that needle travels
through flesh by going alternately
backward and forward, like a railroad
train switching. Thus they were able
10 trace the course Of the needle
which passed twice very close to the
heart and through the lungs. AT last

paid Agents Mlsrepresent Conditions
to Secure immigration.

Misrepresentation on the part Of
paid agents is the chief reason for 80
much Of the undesirable immigration
to this country" said George F. Wag-
ner OF Chicago, who has recently re.
turned from trip to Germany and
Austria. THE agents go among tbs
peasant classes and tell them Of the
money that can be made by coming
to America. The standard of wages
is SO much lower there and the
money itself divided into smaller de-
nominations that these promises are
alluring The agent, however, fails
to tell them that living expenses are
proportionately higher in this country
So the peasant sells what property
he has, and with his family takes pas
sage for America, the land OF quick
fortunes. Arriving here they soon
discover that while the scale Of wages
is all that they have been promised
and that work II plentiful. they can
make no more and probably not as
much in this strange country Their
idea Of America is about the same
as that Of two Irishmen who came
over not long ago. They had been
told that in America gold was found
lying around on the streets and all a
man had to do was to go out and pick
up as much as he wanted. AS luck

The project OF building a tunnel I'M
der the Hudson had its inception in
1878. when d. c. Haskins. civil en-
glneer, conceived the idea Of construct
ing brick tunnel from Hoboken to
New York, through which he proposed
to run railroad trains, having a ter.
minal in the vicinity OF Washington
square. His plan simply embodied a
railroad terminal. and did not compre-
bend the extensive system now being
completed.
With much difficulty a company was
formed to undertake the work, and
after a large sum of money had been
spent and about 1900 feet Of tunnel
built the company failed, and in 1880
the undertaking was temporarily aban-
doncd.
In 1890 another company was organ
ized with English capital and work
was resumed where the Haskins COM
pany had left it, but after adding
about 1000 feet to the part already
built this company also failed, and
once more the project was checked.
The original tunnel was constructed
OF brick and masonry in the old way
but it was the first time compressed
air had ever been used in horizontal
work of this sort.
Nothing more was done with this
tunnel until 1901. when William Nc
Adoo, who came to New York in 1879.
