Plant Your Trees This WAY.

The trees should be set a little
deeper in the soil than they stood in
the nursery row. or where previously
grown. The soil Ilust be worked in
underneath the large roots and
trampei firm about them. The top
OF the tree should leaned slightly to
the southwest. This enables the tree
to resist the hard south winds. and
before the end of the first season the
tree will be standing in an erect posi-
ton. 1t is a good plan to shake the
tree several times while tamping the
dirt around the roots and to pour
water about the tree in order to bring
the soil in contact with every bit Of
root surface. After the water has
been poured on, another inch or two
Of dry soil and good surface should
be thrown about the tree to prevent
baking.-Weekly Witness.

1t is understood that this paper is
laid with glue between each layer,
and this can be done to best advan-
tage with the wooden mandrel placed
between lathe centres. When the

simply rings laid on as shown at B.
When these stop rings have been
placed in position the ring E is APP
piled and glued fast, after which the
lens is fitted against it and second
ring F is applied to hold it in place.
These rings must be of dull black
finish. The eye-piece may be applied
in the same way. This makes most
excellent case for telescope.-C. B.

Koch Theory Supported.

Only two and half per cent. of all
tuberculosis in New York City comes
from infected milk, butter or meat
from bovine sources, according to the
statement made by DR.. William H.
Park, of that city, before the patho-
logical section OF the National Asso-
citation for the Study and Prevention
OF tuberculosis at Washington, D. c.
Moreover, DR.. Park said, this small
percentage is found mainly in chill
dren. In other words. pulmonary tu-
berculosis among adults is contracted
solely from human beings. and is not
the result OF impure milk or foods.
DR.. Park supported the contention OF
DR.. Robert Koch, Of Berlin, the dis
coverer Of the tuberculosis germ,
when he stood practically alone in
declaring that cattle did not transmit
pulmonary tuberculosis to human be-
ings. The significance of these con-
illusions, it was pointed out. will be
to direct all the energy of the cam
paign against tuberculosis to combat
ing the spread of this diease among
human beings by preventing splitting,
bad housing. overwork and other con-
ditions injurious to health.
DR.. Parks paper was followed by
wide discussion. DR.. Marshall Fab
yam, of Boston. presented the story of
two cases of human tuberculosis in
which the bovine tyre Of bacillus was
asserted.

Buttermilk Cheese,

An improved method of collecting
the curd from buttermilk and making
it int products known as butter
milk cheese and ''buttermilk cream
has just been described by Professor
J. L. Sammis in a new bulletin, No.
1876, of the agricultural experiment
station OF the University of Wiscon-
sin. This method has been designed
to meet the difficulty which workers
have experienced in the past collect
ing the curd from heated buttermilk,
since the curd is usually so fine
grained that it cannot be collected on
a cheese-cloth strainer.
The new process involves a careful
regulation of the temperature. The
buttermilk is heated to seventy-eight
degree as rapidly as possible, while it
is being stirred. The heating is then
stopped and the buttermilk allowed
to stand perfectly quiet for one and
a half or two hours. From this time
1t curdles slowly, the clear whey sep
arating from the curd. The curd is
then heated to 100 degrees and
stirred gently and again left quiet for
one hour, during which period 1t is
not allowed to cool. The curd settles
to the bottom of the vessel ana much
OF the clear whey may be poured or
drawn en. and the curd and remain

"It's a peculiar thing" said tie
headquarters detective, that with
the increase in popularity of cheap
watches the number of reports which
we have received of watches stolen by
pickpockets has diminished greatly.
No frst-class pickpocket tries for
watches any more. The same skill is
required to get away with a dollar
watch as hundred-dollar one. So
when the dips found they were touch
ing well-dressed men for limitations
they gradually ceased trying for
them. The objective point now are
stickpins, which the crooks can APP
praise before trying for them, and
wallets, which they are willing to
take chance on. New York Sn~.

Rotation of Crons.

No two crops have just the same
effect on the soil, the same develop
ment of root system, nor take the
same amounts of food elements from
the soil. Several classifcations are
made of field crops based on the char
acters of the plants, their effect on
the soil and the method of raising
them. One classification is accord
ing to the length of the root system.
Alfalfa, clover and some OF the root
crops and native prairie grasses have
long, deep, penetrating root systems
which enable them to get food and
moisture from the subsoil much be-
low the reach of ordinary root sys-
tens. When such plants become es-
tablished they are able as a rule to
Withstand considerably more drouth
than the shallower rooted plants.
Crops like barley, milo. turnips
and many of the cultivated grasses
are shallow rooted. On this account
they often decrease the fertility and
moisture content of the surface soil
much faster than the deeper rooted
crops. In spite of its shallow root
system, milo is able 10 Withstand Sc
we're drouth. This is due largely to
its great ability - make use of what
water there is in the soil and it will
reduce the water content lower than
will other field crops. 1t is also able
to remain dormant for long periods
OF time, and will start in and grow
as soon as its gets moisture
Among the moderately deep rooted
plants are oats, corn. wheat and some
Of the cultivated grasses.
BY alternating these three classes
Of crops on the land much better re-
suits will follow than by raising one
kind continually. since the combined
root systems of the three will pene-
trate large area Of the soil, which
results in a more economical utiliza-
ton of plant food and soil moisture.
The soil will be left in better physi-
cal and chemical condition and the
crop Yields will be larger.-D. W.
Frear, Colorado Agricultural College.

A Hens Devotion.
BY EDITH NJ. RUSSELL.

One often hears it said that there
is no animal more stupid than a
hen. In vindication of the much-ma-
ligned domestic fowl, it seems but
fair to relate true story of a saga
cious and affectionate hen :
On a farm in Nova Scotia there
once lived a dear old lady who was
blind. She had love for all anil
mails, particularly for the hens which
were faithfully fed by her hand. One
tiny hen became exceedingly fond of
its aged mistress, following her about
the yard as devotedly as would the
household cat
When the old lady fell i'll it was
noticed by the family that little Mrs.
Hen was not so lively as of yore. Ev-
identity she missed the kind hand that
had been in the habit of feeding her,
and the gentle voice that had softly
called, chuck, chuck, chuck"
One day the sick woman in fumb-
ling among the bedclothes came in
contact with an egg, and called the
attention of the family to the fact:
The mystery was solved next day
when the little hen was seen to enter
the doorway, wend her way to the
old lady's sick room, and perch upon
the bed. The little feathered friend
paid visit to her mistress every day,
leaving as token of love a fresh egg
to tempt the failing appetite of the
invalid.
The faithful hen seemed to have
had an intuition when the Death
Angel visited the home and bore away
her beloved friend, for never again
did she cross the threshold of the
farmhouse, and shortly after the de-
cease of her blind mistress she pinned
and died, apparently of a brcfc1
heart.-Our Dumb Animals.

The PerilS of Bird Migration.
By HERBERT X. JOB.

1t may be asserted, with consider.
able degree of probability, that there
is no one natural factor more de.
structive to bird life than this mi
gratory habit. Here is we'll known
recent instance. One night in March
there was an immense migration OF
Lapland longspurs over Minnesota. A
wet snowstorm came on, chilling and
bewildering the birds. Over an area
estimated at hundreds of square miles
dead birds were found. In the towns
and cities they swept them up and
carted them of. On wide lakes the
ice was dotted with them in all direc.
tions, about foot or two apart. The
number that persisted at that one
time was doubtless in the millions.

SMALLER REGIMENTS
UNDER A NEW PLAN.
General Carter Proposes Reorganization OF the Army
and Changes in the DrillMore Officers to Be USed---
Plea For CantonmentS, Meaning Villages or Towns
of Soldiers Instead of Isolated GarriSonS.

only first-class power that still clings
to the system of small isolated gar-
risons, no provision whatever existing
for organizing brigades and divisions
in times of peace.
THE time has arrived" General
Carter says, when every considered
ton of public policy demands that a
division cantonment should be estab-
lished. In event OF war such canton
ments would be invaluable as places
of assembly for volunteers as soon
as the divisions moved to the front.
The ease with which new regiments
could be equipped and prepared for
service at such cantonments would
put to shame the large mobilization
camps OF the war with Spain, where
numbers of unframed men were quail,
fled for the pension rolls before they
could be got ready for active service.
Cantonment Land in Indiana.
1.-THE Government already possesses
splendid nucleus of land for begin.
ming the construction OF such a can,
Torment near indianapolis, Ind, a cen,
trally located and healthful site,
tapped by all the principal trunk lines
of the Middle West. The existence of
such a cantonment would insure the
Nation a division of about 1900
men in fine state of instruction and
readiness to proceed to any point in
the shortest possible time.
1--WE do not need to seek models
for our organization among European
States, for their armies are composed
of the youth of the nation, conscripted
to begin service annually at specified
periods. Our system of training must
be adapted to the purely volunteer
soldier. We should therefore draw
upon our own experience, and by
studying the rough roads travelled
by our forbears in bringing into ex-
istence the armies which have saved
the Nation in days gone by, at grave
cost in blood and treasure, simplify
the problem for coming generations.
Under our complex civilization
some very trifing question made be
made the flimsy pretext for demand
ing more than the temper of our
people may be willing to concede.
We are not military Nation, but our
people are extremely warlike, and
therefore liable to force the Govern
ment into positions from which it
may be difficult to withdraw without
loss of prestige. Our ability to COM
mand peace on our own terms must
then rest on our preparedness"
1t may be added that the adoption
of General Carriers plan would mean
the creation of about fifteen new Col
onels, fifteen Lieutenant-Co Colonies,
forty-five Majors and a number of
Brigadier-
