MISER LEFT A HOARD
DYING WOMAN WILL FORTUNE
OF $4,000 TO HOSPITAL.
Sandusky, Ohio, Woman, Supposedly
Poor, B%equeaths Huge Sum Of
Money to Institution That
Cared for Her.

Sandusky, O.-Although supposed,
to be poor, Mrs. Rosa Baubach, dying
left an estate valued at $50, goo to a
local hospital, her relatives being cut
off. The appraisers OF the estate
while going through Mrs. Baubach's
effects found hidden on a shelf In a
closet a large iron box which when
broken open was found to contain
more than $4,000 in gold, silver and
currency. besides securities the value
Of which has not been a%scertained. 1t
has also developed that Mrs. Baubach
owned real estate worth $4,000.
The iron box was rusty and mouldy
With age and evidently had remained
In Its hiding place many years.
Some years ago Mrs. Baubach was.
taken seriously Ill and was removed
to a local hospital. She was given
the best of care. and often remarked
during her illness that some day the.
hospital would be we'll remembered
by her. After leaving the hospital
she was a weekly visitor at the insti-
tuition up to within a short time be-
fore her death. Each time she would
Inquire the needs Of the institution.
For many years Mrs. Baubach had
lived In a little story and half house.
In the business section of the CITY
and was seldom seen out of doors.
She lived alone. Her spare hours
were spent In sewing and knitting.
and her neighbors often remarked
how she would save a little piece of
string or a thread of yarn.

KILL THE CANADA THISTLES
ExperIment Stations Have Underta-
ken to Tell Farmers How TO Elk
terminate Noxious Weeds.
CBy C. W. PRATT. Missouri

By c.. w. PRATT, Missouri
The experiment stations OF tnls
country have undertaken to SHOW Tue
farmers how to exterminate the Can
ada thistle and do it scientifically. IL
Is the most dreaded Of all weeds, De-
cause its seeds are SO easily distribute
ed, and 1t grows by underground
stems.
The life of the plant depends upon
the green leaves above ground. u
ting these leaves and the stems twice
does not seem to affect the roots, when
have reserve material to draw upon
but by continued cuttings this re-
serve will be exhausted and the plant
will die.
The most successful Of the state ex-
periments was in Illinois. The thistles
used in the test covered two and one
half acres very thickly of a rich black
prairie soil. The thistles we're cut July
II, when in full bloom, very close to
the ground. The ground was plowed
three inches deep and narrowed. Hun
garian millet was sown at the rate OF
one bushel per acre. On September
10 the millet was one foot high and the
thistles four or five inches high. 1t
was turned under and narrowed. Oc-
tober s the ground was plowed, again
narrowed and seeded to winter rye at
the rate of one and one-half bushels
per acre.
The middle of the following April the
rye was turned under and the ground
thoroughly narrowed. The ground was
plowed May 20 and June 20. On May
20 very few thistles could be found.
July IA the ground was seeded to mil
let which was cut for hay September
10. Less than fifty thistles were found
on the two and one-half acres during
he latter half Of the season. The net
total cost of this victory was 5000
per acre.
Thistles should not only be cut but
burned. No trace Of them should be
left, as the seeds are easily distributed
and will thrive under the most adverse
conditions.

fashioned, oak-balustrated house, as
Carlyle found it, is perhaps most rep
resentative of his character and his
work.
1t is a solid, ighteenth-century
building, where Johnson labored for
the busiest decade of his life. Hitler
he came year after he had begun
his dictionary. He had an upper room
fitted like a counting-house, and here
his several cOpyists wrote out the il
Illustrative passages from the various
authorities, which Johnson himself
had marked with lead pencil. At
times, but not often, he walked in the
garden, "a plot of delved ground no
longer than a bed quilt"
But the house has other association
than that of the dictionary. Johnson
here began both the Rambler" and
the "Idler," and here he was living
when his tragedy of Irene" now lit
tie read, was produced by Garrick
There, too, his wife died. In 1855,
when Johnson had been in Cough
Square seven years, the great diction-
airy was published and the author de-
livered that smashing blow to the pa
tronage of literature from which it
has never recovered.
Seven years, my lord" he wrote to
Chesterfield, his would-be patron,
! "have now passed since l waited in
