speaker of the House Received Stick
of Licorice From New Yorker,

Speaker of the House Received Stick
of Licorce From New Yorker. f.
One of the most curious gifts that
have ever been received by Speaker
Cannon came to him recently from A.
W. Ten Eyck of New York. 1t was a
small stick of licorice inclosed in a
common envelope without word of
comment, says Washington dispatch.
The package lay in the New York post
office for ten days because of INSULT
Gent postage. 1t was finally forward
ed by Postmaster Morgan and opened
by L. Whyte Busbey. the speakers
secretary
The round tube of licorice was exam
ined gingerly before it was shown to
the speaker in order that it's identity
might be fully determined.
''It might be bomb" was the sug-
gestion made by visitor to the speak
er's room.
NO." answered Mr.. Cannon. sit was
probably sent by some friend to break
me of the tobacco habit"
Mr.. Busbey says that the licorice is
one of the strangest bits of CORE
spondence he has ever been called on
to answer. Some time ago a match
Rnd a piece Of bologna sausage were
sent to the speaker. but the name Of
the sender was not given.

1t is matter for cOngratulation
that the housekeepers of Minnesota
are keenly alive to the desirabilty of
keeping flies out of their houses.
One occasionally finds kitchen in
tested, or a dining room infested, but
as a rule our houses are well protect
ed in this particular. 1t would seem,
from facts in our possession, that to
allow house flies to enter dwelling
house or hotel, amounts to almost
criminal negligence. The best re-
needles are screens on windows and
doors, sticky fly paper preferable to
poisoned fly paper, the doing away
with manure heaps, the covering of
Stops and of filth, not leaving them to
pollute the neighborhood of the house.
Swill barrels should have tight covers.
Intestinal discharges from a patient
suffering from typhoid or any ohter
fever, or an infectious disease, should
be sterilized before being emptied in
TO sewer Or CSSSpOOA. 0o"pAoS SouAS
be, where possible located at a dis
lance from the house. A reason for
not letting horse manure accumulate
is very evident, and some stables are
SO constructed that this is kept in a
covered compartment until removed,
or treated frequently with substance
which we kill the maggots of the
house fly. Another remedy is that
of fumigation. Prethrum placed i'll
a pan on hot stove and allowed to
smolder but not break into flame, will
stupefy, if the room is tightly closed,
all the flies therein, which should be
carefully swept up afterward and
burned, otherwise some will revive.
Prethrum or Persian insect powder
loses it's strength upon being kept,
and in buying one should be particular
to get fresh powder, or what has been
kept in tightly sealed receptacles.
The House Fly is a menace to the
health of your children and yourself.
It's new name-"Typhoid Fly,"-is
significant!

Furnishing Craze Started by One O
England's Richest Women.

SI0<S SIdFISO ny onG q
England's Richest Women.
The latest craze in furnishing is the
all black ballroom. The fashion was
set by Mrs. Houldsworth Of London,
one Of the richest women in England.
who inherited most of the money left
by the late Mr.. Assheton-Smith. The
walls Of her drawing room, according
to London cable dispatch, are of
solid black ebony. with a deep frieze
of gold flowers.
Above the frieze is line of mirrors,
and in these are reflected electric
lamps, each Enclosed in a golden lily
which stands out in high relief from
an ebony panel. The effect is to throw
up the bright colors Of the women's
dresses, and the long line of mirrors
prevents any touch of somberness.
Lady Drogheda, who only recently
returned from very up to date
honeymoon, was SO fascinated by Mrs.
Houldsworth's ballroom that she is
following suit with an all black draw

Manuring and Fertilizing.

Fresh manures should not be appli-
ed in the spring. They should be
applied and plowed under in the fall.
Composted manure should be applied
at the rate of ~ Or Is loads per acre
and plowed under fairly deep Give or
so inches). Commercial fertilizers
are used to good advantage by those
who understand them. Much damage
may result from an improper use of
fertilizer. Some kinds are detrimental
to the quality and production of the
tobacco. Pure Nitrate of Soda, des-
sicated bone meal lphosphate), and
sulphate of potash are recommended.
But fertilizer containing chlorine are
detrimental to the crop. In applying
the fertilizer on small area, it may
be saving to "dust" small amount
close to each tobacco plant, or to scat
ter it along in the row. On larger
areas fertilizers are usually spread by
means of the fertilizer attachments to
the grain drill, but they may be scat
tered by hand. If applied after the
plants have been set out, application
by hand is imperative and care must
be taken not to allow any to get on
the plants for it will injure them. If
applied before the plants are set out
the fertilizers can be broadcasted and
narrowed in. Nitrate of soda at the
rate of 100 to 200 pounds per acre is re-
commended. Phosphate fertilizer in
the shape of dessicated or steamed
bone meal at the rate of 200 or 400
pounds per acre is recommended. For
potash fertilizer wood ashes at the
rate of one wagon-box full per acre
will be found beneficial. ~

Setting out the Plants.

In handling the plants during the
operation connected with transplant
ing, one must observe few points
| closely. The plants should be from
four to six inches in height for trans
planting. CD Before pulling the plants,
the seed beds must be thoroughly
soaked with water. This must be
done some two or three hours before
the actual pulling to allow the soil to
become thoroughly saturated at least
two inches in depth. (2) Pull the
largest and best plants carefully with
out bending or injuring them in any
way. 60 Place them in a basket or
box. (4) Keep cover on this basket
or box to exclude the SUMS rays and
the wind. 90 Do not drop the plants
ahead of the man who sets them out.
The root systems are delicate and the
plant therefore must have every ad-
vantage to succeed and render pro-
ftable crop. Too deep setting is in
furious. co Set the plants 2 feet apart
in the row and leave the rows three
to three and one half feet apart. If
the area to be set out is small, trans
plan ting by hand will be found as
convenient as a "machine". For
hand planting dibble is used for max
ing the hole and pressing the dirt
firmly about the roots. A dib-
BILE is usually made of wood and is six
to eight inches long, one to one and
one half inches thru, and pointed on
one end. For protection against
grasshoppers and against damage by
wind a half dozen rows of corn around
the out side of the tobacco patch is
necessary.
In placing the plants in the soil, first
make a hole the proper depth with
this dibble; than hold the tobacco
plant loosely in the fingers, the root
end projecting beyond the finger tips
just little farther than the depth to
which the plant is to be set. Now
put the roots to the proper depth in
the hole and jab the dibble down be-
side the hole, the point slanting to-
ward the roots of the plant; then by
drawing the hand over, crowd the dirt
up against the roots and stem of the
plant. Now place one foot a few
inches from the plant and by pressing
downward and toward the plant COM
plete the firming of the soil. If a pint
or so of water could be added to each
plant after it is set, the assurance of
its growth would be guaranteed.
The time of season for transplant
ing tobacco in Minnesota ranges from
June 1st to July 10th. A crop may be
obtained if the planting is done as
late as July 10Th. Earlier planting is
to be recommended. Better results
