 IS BETTER TODAY

The condition of Patro1man Tom Ivers at St. Vincent's hospital tocR-y shows an improvement, and unless unexpected developments arise his chances for recovery are bright. It has been deemed expedient by his physicians to issue an order which the hospital management will enforce whereby no one will pc allowed to see see which he is passing. Since his hos Jpital habitation begun a great many on him and as absolute quiet is re- quired in his case his physicians de- cided not to allow any one into the sick room save the attendants.

Ripeninx Apples on Trees.

The longer apples remain on the
tree, unless the weather becomes too
cold to permit their exposure, the bet
ter the flavor and the keeping quail
ties. The fruit that comes to perfec-
tion the farthest north, as that in the
Hood river region of Oregon, appears
to have the finest keeping qualities
without deterioration In flavor.
OF the varieties raised In the East
the winter russets keep longest with
out being put in cold storage and real
ly reach the full perfection of flavor
only late In the winter or the early
spring. 1t used to be considered q
marvellous and almost an impossible
thing to keep apples over from the
fall till the first summer apples ap-
peared. but with methods of cold
storage so extensively used as they
are now this is easily achieved and
with far less deterioration in flavor
than might reasonably be expected.

Experiment station tests have shown
that nitrate of soda is the one fertiliz-
er most needed by meadows In tho
spring. AS early in the spring, the
second year after wheat, II clover has
been grown, as new fresh growth
shows, make mixture Of equal weight
of nitrate of soda and fine dry earth,
and apply broadcast at the rate OF 800
pounds per acre. 1t would be quite
useless to use. any other form Of fer
tilizer, for everything depends upon
immediate availability of the plaut
food, BY this treatment not only will
wild grasses be kept back, but also
sporadic patches of clover. The young
timothy will develop very thick
growth. due to very extensive stooling.
The cost Of fertilizer and its applica-
tion will be about $4 per acre If no fall
application was made, and $6.75 If It
was necessary to fall fertilize.

How to r1ant a Tree.

In anticipation Of the needs Of
Arbor Day the Oklahoma experiment
station has in press bulletin on
Tree Culture" by Professor Morris
Of the horticultural department.
While the bulletin treats of many fea-
lures, such as the best trees to plant
for shade or post and pole production,
perhaps the most timely and useful
advice is that relating to planting
which Is as follows:
The trees should be set little deep
er in the soil than they stood in the
nursery row, or where previously
grown. The soil must be worked in
underneath the large roots and tamp-
ed firm about them. The top Of the
tree should be 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 position. 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.

rHE FOOTBALL CRAZE.
Epidemic Hysteria to which Women
Are Especially Susceptible.

Epidemic HysteriR to which Women
Are Especially Susceptible.
1t is fast growing to be the. opinion
OF thoughtful people outside of aca-
demic circles that the mania for sports
and contests OF physical prowess In
our colleges and schools has gone SO
far that 1t constitutes an evil Of great
magnitude, writes Albert Shaw in the
Review Of Reviews. One OF the reasons
for the intensity OF the devotion to
football, for example, as a type of the
intercollegiate competition, Is to be
found in the great size Of the under
graduate body and the great prom
inence Of the leading institutions in
the social sense. College loyalty has
to express itself in some form or other,
and ardent devotion to the success Of
the college team in Its contests with
other colleges comes to be the easiest
form Of common expression among a
great mass Of students who can find
no other rallying point.
A natural consequence OF the inten-
sity of this feeling is the undue re-
sponsibility placed upon the members
Of the representative teams. The foot
ball players are made to feel that upon
them chiefly depends the glory or the
disgrace OF their college. So over
whelming is this feeling that It be-
comes veritable obsession. Members
Of the faculty and Of the Board Of
Trustees and all the old graduates be-
come infected with the craze.
Women are especially susceptible to
epidemic hysteria of this sort. Their
influence Is even worse than that Of
men in driving the players to that at
titude OF false heroism which would
make any Of them willing and glad.
not merely to break his nose or his
collar bone, but to lay down his life on
the football field. They are doing 1t
all for the glory Of the college and the
admiring applause of the score of
thousands OF well-dressed girls on the
bleachers who, all unaware to them
selves, have become tainted with that
wretched passion for dangerous gladi-
atorial combat that takes the fair
women Of Spain to the bull-fght every
Sunday afternoon.

CHATTER TX

While the Major, hardly able to
credit his own eyes. was staring at the
dead body of his dear lad, Jaggard, at
tracted also by the strange cry, came
running up.

Jen even in that moment of anxiety.

The road which ran past "Ashan-

even in the daytime, and at this hour
of the night it was quite deserted. Not
a person was in sight, although the
Major could see up and down the road
for a considerable distance. owing to
the bright moonlight He raised Mau-

on the soft grass by the wayside
In the bright moonlight he carefully

tonight"
Well" said Jen, with a shrug, ''you
are old enough to guide your own ac-
tions. But must say that don't like
TO be shut out of the confidence of my
two boys in this way"
You'll know everything to-mor-
row"
About David also?"
Perhaps 1 can even promise you
that!" said Maurice, with smile.
What" cried Jen, do you know
why David has gone to town."
Not for certain; but l can guess.
Now, Uncle Jen, l shan't answer an
other question just now, as must go
into Deanminster."
1t was useless to ask further ques-
tions. as Jen saw that the young man
was getting irritated; so, in no very
pleasant temper himself, the Major
went up to his dressing room. He
was of a peace-loving and easygoing
nature, fond of quietness, so it annoy
ed him not a little that all this dis
turbance should take place on account
of a woman.
David and Maurice both being alb
sent, Major Jen was compelled to
dine alone. This he disliked doing, so
hurrying over his dinner with all
speed he betook himself to the smok-
ing room with a book. Here he chose
a comfortable chair near the open win
dow, and attempted to read; but the
somnolent influence of the evening
was upon him, and before long the
good Major was sound asleep.
Outside a warm wind was blowing,
and the air was filled with the per-
fume of flowers. In the darkly blue
sky hardly a cloud could be seen, and
the moon, just showing her orb above
The tree tops, flooded the still lowell
ness of the night with wave after wave
of cold light. All was full of charm,
spellbound as it were by the magic of
when suddenly long, wild
cry struck shudderingly through the
silence.
Accustomed as an old campaigner to
sleep lightly, Major Jen was on his
feet in an instant, and again heard
that terrible Shrek. 1t seemed to come
from the direction of the high-road,
and thinking that some evil was being
done, Jen, without loss of time, raced
across the lawn and into the avenue.
In a few minutes he arrived at the
gate, and stepped out into the white
and dusty road; a black mass was ly
ing some distance down. and towards
this ran Jen with an undefinable sense
of EVIL clutching at his heartstrings
The black mass proved to be the body
of a man, cold and still. Jen turned
the corpse over and recoiled. The
dead man was Maurice Aylmer.
