FIG. RECOVERING THE TILE DITtH.
It Is usually better to let the job Of
tiling to a contractor rather than to at
tempt to do it yourself. There are re-
liable tilers in almost every locality
who can be depended upon to lay the
tile to grade and do first class job In
every particular. Only the hard burn
ed tile should be used. These will last
for lifetime or longer If properly put
in. When tile go within fifteen or
twenty feet of trees the joints should
be cemented. Otherwise the tree roots
will find their way through the joints
and fill up the drains to such an extent
that the flow Of water will be cut off.
The most important part Of a drain
age system is the outlet. The tile
should empty into a stream If possible.
Water should not be allowed to stand
over the mouth of the outlet II 1t can
be avoided, as this checks the current
and causes the drain to partly fill UP
with silt, thus reducing its capacity
just that much.
With thorough system Of tile drain
age in good working order the problem
Of getting rid Of surplus water Is
solved. Tiling also helps to solve the
problem Of lack Of water. The roots
go down so much deeper in a tiled
soil that they are in position to with
stand a drought better than If they
were a foot or two farther above the
water table. Removing the surplus
water by drainage also .hastens the
warming Of the soil in the spring.
To be Continued.

GREEDY FOR WORK.
Long Hours Put In at the Desk by
President Cleveland.


President Cleveland was often at
his desk in the White House until
a. m., and up again at 8, says George
F. Parker in McClure's Magazine
Describing a few weeks stay at the
White House, Mr.. Parker says:
II fell into the way of working un
til I o'clock in the morning, and, be-
cause of the oppressive heat, I kept
the door of my room wide open. Of
ten during the hours around midnight,
I would step into the hall, in hope of
getting a stray breath Of air. Once
1t so happened that, as looked across
the hall to the half-open door turned
toward mine, saw, upon its polished
surface the reflection Of the head of
man, writing with a patience and an
industry that amazed me. I knew that
the president was at his desk.
IT used to ask the watchmen, when
1 went to my task in the forming, al
what hour the president had knock
ed off work the preceding night.
found that it was generally about 8
o'clock in the morning, although
sometimes, when he had finished some
severe task that he had set himself to,
he would. stop at o'clock. l usually
stopped work at / o'clock, but I did,
once or twice, hang on until 2, In the
hope that I might, If only for once,
show an endurance equal to that of
the man next door, whose greediness
for work had become proverbial.'

CHAPTER XXI.

The peacefulness Of fairyland was
something which Brewster could not
afford to continue, and with Bertier he
was soon planning to invade It, The
automobile which he was obliged to
order for the mysterious marquise put
other ideas into his head. 1t seemed at
once absolutely necessary to give a
coaching party in Italy, and, as coach
es Of the right kind were hard to find
there and changes of horses most un-
certain nothing could be more simple
and natural than to import automobiles
from Paris. Looking into the matter
he found that they would have to be
purchased outright, as the renting OF
five machines would put his credit to
too severe a test. Accordingly Bertier
telegraphed a wholesale order, which
taxed the resources Of the manufac-
turers and caused much complaint from
some customers whose work was un-
accountably delayed. The arrange
ment made by the courier was that
they were to be taken back at great
ly reduced price at the end Of six

We have already learned something
of the value Of water as plant food.
This is only one Of its minor uses,
however. In addition to the water
which Is decomposed by the plant and
used in making starch and other prod
ucts, many times as much is used for
other purposes. One Of the principal
of these is dissolving plant food and
carrying 1t upward to the leaves. At
ter reaching the leaves most Of the
water is evaporated, leaving in the leaf
cells the materials which it brought
up.
The cells Of which the leaves are
made are very delicate and depend for
their stiffness on the water which they
contain. Without this water they
would collapse in the same way a BIZ
cycle tire does when the air Is let out.
This is the very thing that happens
when the leaves wilt. The rise Of
water from the roots has been checked
in some way, and as evaporation still
continues the leaf cells become partly
emptied and shrink up.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1909-02-19

reach instead Of retaining 1t for fu-
ture use, as do the clay soils.
The farmer cannot influence the
amount of rainfall, of course. After
the rain has fallen, however, it be-
longs to him to do with as he sees flt.
The way he handles It from this time
on determines to a large extent the
size of the crop he will harvest when
fall comes.
The first problem Is to get rid Of the
surplus ground water quickly and the
second Is to waste as little Of the cap
Hilary water as possible. An endeavor
should be made to lower the water ia
BILE to three or four feet below the
surface as soon as possible after each
rain. If this can be accomplished in
two or three days the growth Of the
crop will be interfered with very lit
tie. A few soils are 80 we'll drained
naturally that little artificial drainage
is necessary. On almost any farm
there are hills and ridges where the
natural drainage is sufficient. The
hollows between these elevations, how
ever, and all the fiat fields will yield
much larger crops If tiled.
The distance line Of tile will draw
is in sandy soils often as far as 100
feet on each side, while in heavy clay
soils 1t may not be more than sixteen
feet. This distance is also affected by
the depth Of the tile. The deeper they
are placed the farther they will draw.
Tile are usually placed at an average
depth Of about three feet, though in
many instances four would be better.
The extra cost of digging the ditch a
foot deeper Is something of an objec-
ton, but is balanced by the fact that
the lines Of tile do not need to be as
close together. Deep tile are not as
easily displaced by freezing, and a
deeper feeding ground for the roots is
provided.
A mistake made more frequently
than that Of not putting the drains in
deep enough Is that Of using too small
tile. The character of the soil, the fall
and the amount Of surface drained are
the factors which largely determine
the proper size to use. Almost every
book or bulletin of tile drainage gives
tables for figuring the size Of tile re-
quired under various conditions. If
there is any doubt 1t always pays to
get a size too large rather thar a size
too small; even If the cost is little
4ore.

HOW JAPAN LEARNS.
Sends an Engineer to Investigate Mod
ern Methods Of Building.

Sends an Engineer to Investigate MOD
ern Methods Of Building.
The Japanese government has archi-
tects and a mechanical engineer tour
ing Europe and the United States, get
ting ideas for the erection OF new
narliament building in Toxic, to be
equipped with the most modern appli-
ances for lighting and heating, as well
as other conveniences.
T. Fukuhara of Toxic, who Is con-
nected with the department OF con-
struction of the treasury of Japan, has
been touring Europe to collect data
as regards the construction Of a parlia-
ment building, and Is soon to go back
to Japan. Mr. Fukuhara has another
mission besides investigating the mod
ern equipment for the proposed parlia-
ment building in Toxic. 1t Is to inves-
tigate the methods the United States
government has adopted for creosoting
and preserving wood, and the govern
ment construction of harbors.
Japan will no longer be behind the
other countries in the world in har-
Dor facilities when the new harbors
at Yokohama and Kobe are completed
said the Japanese mechanical engineer
to a Washington Post reporter. 1.-The
Japanese government is especially in
terested in the wood preserving tests
being made in the United States.
Doubtless we shall adopt the same
methods of creosoting or preserving
wood as is now established in this
country"
Mr.. Fukuhara insisted that the peo-
pie of the United States and Japan
were becoming better acquainted, and
that the relations Of the governments
of the two countries were becoming
more friendly every year.
Japan and the United States al
ways have been good friends" contin-
ued Mr.. Fukuhara. 'They will con-
tnue as such. There was never any
good cause for the efforts made to Gre
ate prejudice on the part Of the people
of the two countries. Japan is forging
ahead rapidly in a commercial way,
and in every other direction. Many of
our most valuable suggestions have
been gained from the United States.
With the building of new harbor and
the improvement Of it's railroad facili-
ties. Japan will be better equipped to
take care of it's growing commercial
interests"

Brewster as we'll as to his bewildered
guests. Aladdin, it seemed, had fairly
outdone himself. The wonder of 1t
was so complete that it was some time
before they could settle down to the
opera, which was Aida" given with
an enthusiasm that only Italians can
compass.
During the last intermission Brew
ster and Peggy were walking in the
foyer They had rarely spoken since
the day of the ride, but Monty noticed
with happiness that she had on several
occasions avoided Pettingill.
Il thought we had given up fairy
land when we left the lakes, but I be-
lieve you carry it with you," she said.
THE trouble with this" Monty re-
piled, "is that there are too many peo-
pie about. My fairyland is to be just
little different"
Your fairyland, Monty, will be built
of gold and paved with silver You
will sit all day cutting coupons in an
office of alabaster."
Peggy, do you, too, think me Vul-
gar? It's a beastly parade, l know,
but it can't stop now. You don't real
ize the momentum of the thing"
You do it up to the handle" she put
in And you are much too generous
to be vulgar. But it worries me, Mon
ty; it worries me desperately. It's the
future I'm thinking of-your future
which is being swallowed up. This
kind of thing can't go on. And what
is to follow it? You are wasting your
substance, and you are not making any
life for yourself that opens out"
Peggy" he answered very seriously
you have got to trust me. 1 can't
back out, but I'll tell you this-you
shall not be disappointed in me in the
end"
