There are closed seasons for various
queer things in Vermont, but Wisconsin
goes US one better with law for the
protection of frogs. 1t seems that from
time immemorial the frog industry in
Wisconsin has been a source of revenue
to the people of that state. In the first
place, they sell them to tourists who
wish to use them for bait for muscalonge,
and the next place, the trade in hotels
and restaurants is great. Now the
Legislature is about to pass bill max
ing it unlawful to take, catch or kill
any frog, or have in possession any
living or dead frog or parts of frog, OF
to sell or to offer for sale any living OF
dead frog or parts of frog, between
November ! and June l next following.
1t also makes it unlawful for any hote
or restaurant, boarding houre, club OF
private family to use or serve as fooC
the hind legs of frogs at any time. Why
the frog should be thus protected, il
not stated, for it seems that hitherto
thousands of frogs have been shipped
to Chicago, New York and othel
centers, and the industry is lucrative. -

MANURE FOR THE MELONS.
Attempts to Grow Fruit Without Fer
tlizer Are Not Encouraging.


The Illinois agricultural experiment
station has conducted fertilizer expert
ments with muskmelons at Anna, i'll
Union county, and at Kinmundy, in
Marion county, for several years. The
chief objects of the experiments were
to determine the relative efficiency OF
different amounts of manure and meth
DDS of application of manure, the effect
of supplementing manure with COM
mercial forms of phosphorus, the effect
Of using complete commercial ferti'
lizer in connection with manure and
the effect of substituting commercial
fertilizer for manure in the pr&.uction
of Gem melons. In both localities the
experiments were conducted on typical
melon soil of the region, that at Anna
being unglaciated yellow silt loan and
that at Kinmundy gray silt loam
Attempts to grow melons without
manure were not very encouraging
When the complete commercial ferti-
lizer was used in the hills In place OF
manure the yields were greatly reduced
This was especially marked in the field

To the fact that the passenger car
which received the worst treatment
in the Rutland railroad wreck near
Middlebury Sunday night, was of steel
construction is ascrbed the compare
tive freedom from injury of the pass
engers on the car and the possible
death of several. The car went off
the rails and down a low bank till it
became lodged on its side against a
bridge support, which kept it from
going down precipitous fall. The
situation was bad enough as it was,
and the car received such rough treat
ment that an ordinary wooden vehicle
might have been considerably smashed,
with attendant serious consequences
to its occupants; but the steel car re-
tanned its shape and was not materially
damaged, while at the same time il
rendered much protection to the occu
pants, although it could not prevent
them from being tossed about anC
bruised. Moreover, fire which was
started in the car was soon eXtinguished
thereby avoiding one of the horrors O
a wreck, in which lightly constituted
wooden cars figure. So, taken all in al
Sunday nights wreck must be reckonec
as more or less of a proof that stee
cars are the best protection for pas
