A man living at Maud wants to know
if he can irrigate his trees by means
of water wagon and barrels. Pro-
fessor Thornber did not favor the plan,
stating:
"This would be rather too complex.
l am of the opinion that you will find
it too great an expense, considering
the vrfue of team and man, to haul
this water during the summer. The
station would advise you to try and
conserve this moisture by means of
culture. This could be done with good
effect during the summer months.
have had considerable experience on
the state college campus in hauling
water; and have concluded, first that
it is impracticable to, place water
around the tree without heavy mulch
of straw; second, that nothing much
less than barrel Of water for each
tree at each watering, should be given.
This will soak the ground up fairly
well, and in our case, did not need to
water the trees on the campus more
than twice during the summer. l do
not know that it will be possible for
you to make use of a heavy mulch, but
in order to hold the water, it is neces-
, sary to do 80. You can use rotted
straw for this, or forest leaves. -

CAUGHT WITH MARKED BILL
Tailor Arrested for Going Through
 Patrons Pockets.

New Haven, Sept. 12.--Charged with the theft of money from the pockets of suit left with him for pressing, Louis Salet, tailor at 435 Grand avenue, was arrested yester- day afternoon by Officer Lawlor of the Grand avenue station. The ar rest followed complaint by Motor man John McMahon of James and Novkey street, that he had left a suit with Salet for pressing it and that there had been ten dollars in a bill in one pocket. When he got the clothes back again the bill was missing. Salet claimed when Me- Mahon saw him about it, that there was no money in the clothes as far as he knew.
 A marked dollar was placed in a (pair of trousers and sent to Salet by a boy. When the trousers returned the bill was missing. When offcer Lawlor appeared Salet admitted hay ing the bill but declared he had not stolen 1t and had only found it after the boy went away and so did not call him back but intended to hold it for the owner. He was arrested for theft despite his excuse, however.

WENT THROUGH HOUSE

 Nsrlh Willow Slreei People.

A powerful blast which shook many of the houses on the upper part of North Willow street and sent two large stones crashing through two houses went off this morning about 8 o'clock on Clowes's terrace. One of the stones which would have undoubtedly killed a person instantly, went. through the ;veranda of Dr Lancaster's house at 311 North Willow street and came out at the opposite end of the ve- randa. Miss Rose Minor, who was standing on tho veranda at the time | few feet from where the stone struck was 50 shocked that she tainted.
 The other stone went crashing through the roof of the Pollak house at No 296 and landed in bed room. It tore a large hole in the roof.
 Mrs Lancaster said that the house was badly jared but she did not know that 1t had been struck until she saw all the neighbors running out. The Lancaster house Is just a few yards from the point where the trolley accident happened last even ing.
 George H. Cloves, who Is having the blasting done, did not regard the incident as being serious. He said that he hired the men and the blasting was going on under the su- pervision of foreman who had done that kind of work for about IA years.
 Tt is true" he continued, "that some stones did go down on the street this morning but that is notk :. ing unusual where blasting Is going on. I have ordered the damage that was done repaired. have had blasting done up here for a num- Der of years and this Is the first time that anything like what happened this morning occurred"
 The residents on the street have, 1t is true, been accustomed to small stones coming down from many di> rections at various times during the past few years but they claim some thing should be done when real boulders begin to bang their houses.
