An Odd incident Of Railroad construe.
ton In China.
When there was undertaken the con-
struction Of the railway between Kirin
and Newchwang, the seaport Of Man
churia. 1t was proposed to make
junction at a place called ,Lanplen, out
side the city OF Mukden. For this per
mission had to be obtained from the
Tartar general of Mukden. This func-
tionary at once proceeded to call In his
geomancers. a species of soothsayers.
who gave information concerning the
good fortune and III fortune Of sites
and were supposed by the Chinese to
know what demons and dragons in
habited the earth under the surface.
These wise men reported that the
dragon whose body encircled the holy
city Of Mukden lay coiled up In such
way that IL the railway came through
Lanpien the long nails driven into the
ties would pierce his backbone and In
all probability set him to raging vio-
lently. to the great detriment of the
people Of Mukden.
The general consequently refused the
application Of the railway people and
directed them TO carry the road In a
straight line from Kirin to New
chwang. avoiding Mukden. The en-
gineers, thereupon appealed to the vice
roy, showing that, as this proposed
route would go through a marshy and
uninhabited country, 1t could not be
profitable for their enterprise.
The viceroy wrote to the general Of
Mukden. highly commencing him for
his discretion In consulting the geo
mancers, but suggesting that these
sage persons go over the ground again
and see n they could not find a place
where the nails would not be likely TO
strike into the dragons back. Accord
ingly, at the command OF the viceroy.
the general had his geomancers indi
cate spot for the junction at Lanpien
where they thought that, after all, the
dragons backbone would be safe

CARING FOR GRAPES.

Rules for grape culture from the
Experiment Station Record, United
States Department of Agriculture;
The main points in grape culture
are summarized as follows:
With a few exceptions grapes OF
the Lubrusca species, Of which the
Concord may be taken as the type,
are the most satisfactory for gen.
eral planting.
A warm, rich, well drained soil is
the best for the grape.
Almost all vines should be planted
at least eight feet apart.
Strong one-year-old vines are most
desirable for planting.
Thorough shallow cultivation is es-,
sentlal.
The pruning of the first two years
must be done with reference to the
system under which the vine is to be
trained, after it begins fruiting. Dur
ing this time the vine should become
thoroughly established. ~
The best time for the principal
pruning is SOON after the leaves drop
IN autumn, but. pruning can be done
at any time during theJwinter when
tne vines are not frozen. Summer
pruning consists, IN pinching lateral
Dranches' in order to encourage the
development Of the fruit and the
bearing wood for the succeeding year.
The long arm, short spur system
oi training is usually the most salts
factory for the inexperienced grower,
out the renewal systems are highly
recommended.

R'ennywise Peter.

DR.. Britton d. Evans, the brilliant
alienist, said at a recent dinner in
New York:
Then there is the cunning lunatic,
Of whom there used to exist a good
example at Bridgetown.
There was a half-witted youth in
Bridgetown to whom the nelghboring
farmers liked to offer a penny and a
nickel.
Gathered about him in a circle on
market day the farmers, one after
another, would say:
Now, whichl yer have, Peter?
Here's a cent-here's a nickel-take
yer choice.
And fool Peter would invariably
choose the cent rather than the
nickel, and the farmers before such
incredulous foolishness would roar
with laughter, double in two and slap
their legs noisily with their brown
hands.
Peter?' I said one day to the
lunatic, why is 1t that you always
take the cent instead of the nickel?
Peter grinned a very cunning
grin.
Suppose | took the nickel, said
he, would ever get a chance to take
another one?' Washington Post.

STORING CABBAGE.

IN storing cabbage, select a well
drained place, dig a pit four or five
feet wide, and deep enough to hold
any desired number of tiers of heads
five tiers probably would be most
suitable). over the bottom of the
pit strew clean, dry straw, leaves or
any kind of litter to a depth Of five
or six inches.
Now sever the cabbage heads from
the stumps, removing all leaves that
are damp or show the least sign of
decay, and lay the heads in the pit,
tops down, in even rows. In placing
them see that they lie close together.
Also be very careful not to bruise
them or you need not be surprised to
find rotten cabbage when you open
the pit.
Make the pile to resemble a hay
stack as much as possible, cover with
some clean grass or straw, and throw
on some six or eight inches Of dirt.
Leave in this conditinon until cold
weather approaches; then cover with
more coarse litter, to prevent freez-
ing and thawing. Some prefer to
cover lightly and allow the cabbage
to freeze, and this is all right, pro-
!Vlded they stay frozen till used. It's
the alternate freezing and thawing
that ruins abbage.-Farmers Home
