Blossoms for Fall.

The spring brings its sweet, dainty
little flowers, synonymous with love
and hope, the summer blazes with
brilliant garish colors, and the fall
has It's own softer tones with shich
to decorate the pleasant harvest time.
Gold, Grown, deep red. purple, and
yellow have long been the standard
fall lines, but there are many other
shades that can be enjoyed In the
autumn garden.
While they bring breath Of sad
ness with them, still the time of the
golden rod and the purple aster and
the black-ayed Susan is perhaps the
dearest of ell to those who dwell
amidst natural scenes.

Wild wood colors In our fail gardens?

HUGE ELEPHANT LOVES MUSIC
Learns to Step In Time and Will Ac-
company Drum and Flute With
InarticuIate Sounds.

In spite of his unwieldy size and ap-
parently inactive ear, the elephant is
a great lover of music. Not only does
he learn to step in time, but he has
been known to accompany the drum
and flute with certain inarticulate
sounds.
Button once made q series of ex-
periments to ascertain the musical
taste Of an elephant in the Jardin des
Plantes. Simple melodies, played on
the violin, seemed to give the beast
great pleasure, whereas variations
made, apparently, no impression. But
when horn-player played a popular
tune the elephant became much ex-
cited, danced and made an effort to
accompany the music with grunts. At
last he put his trunk into the4open end
Of the instrument, as II to draw out
the music itself, and then caressed the
player most tenderly, to show him his
gratitude.

OF HUMAN HEaR1
Average Rapidly OF Cardiac Pu!sa-

In the human subject the. average
rapidity of the cardiac pulsation OF
an adult male is about 70 beats per
minute These beats are more fire.

in women, and there are variations,
within certain limits, in particular

be an abnormal sign to find in some
particular individuals the habitual fire.

to IS or from 70 individuals the
habitual frequency of the hearts

CARNATIONS. and more rapid and
feebler in those of slighter form.
In animals the range is from Is to
As in the cold blooded and SO upward
in the warm blooded, except in the
case of horse, which has a very
slow heart beat, only 40 strokes a
minute. The pulsations Of men and
all animals differ with the sea level
also. The work of healthy human
heart has been shown to be equal to
the feat OF raising five tons four hun
dredweight one foot per hour, or 125
tons in "a hours.
A curious calculation has been made
by DR.. Richardson, giving the work OF
the heart in mileage. Presumlng that
the blood was thrown out Of the heart
at each nulSatiOn in the Dr0DOrtiOn OF
69 strokes per minute and at the as
sumed force of nine feet, the mileage
of the blood through the body might
be taken as 207 yards per minute,
seven miles per hour, 16S miles per
day, $3.50 miles per year, or $780,
$50 miles in a lifetime, "a years. The
number of beats of the heart in the
same long life would reach the grand
total of 1859, 776,000.

Preparation of the Garden for
NeXi Year.

Here are a few good plans to- put
your garden in ths best shape for next
years crops. Afr the various vege-
tables have ripeed and the plants
died, the garden mould be plowed. If
you are keeping chickens, it would
be we'll to harros and sow to vetch
or rape, eithert9fwhich will give you
good crop IT green food for the
chickens. Thia.cn be planted as late
as August Is. So it thickly and give
1t plenty of Watr. This crop will
make a good greet feed for the chick
ems until it getstoo dry and then it
can be curedsaa made into q water
mash as needed This makes very
good substitute Dr the green feed
during winter moths.
If you have no chickens, and there
fore have no Use Or a green feed, we
suggest that .ou liant the garden to
clover. Clover belongs to the legumin-
Gus class of pants which put nitrogen

In any ever, the garden should be
plowed in thefall, particularly where
the soil Is havy. This will permit
the frost to leak up and decompose
the soils durig the winter months,
making the liant foods more avail
able in the oring. Before planting,
the entire gaden should be gone over
with a disk arrow.
1t will be5till better If you will
cover the grand with fertilizer be-
fore blowing. There is nothing better
for this perhps than good sod, which
accounts for. better crops the first
year than latr on. Stable manure is
good.
If the soils very heavy and sour,
put lime On, the form of air slaked

Floating factories have become an
important part of the development OF
the forest resources OF India. In GER
tain parts OF that country the forests
are only accessible through the water
courses, and the great expense o.
erecting the plants for the utilization
Of the lumber resources makes such
O. course impracticable. Therefore,

establishments are built on floating
platforms and moved up the streams
