PARIS. Jan. @6.-The long continued
cold. especially in the central districts
OF France, is bringing numbers OF
wolves, frantic with hunger out OF
the woods.
A little girl. returning from school
at Ia Coquillc. near PeTigueuX. was

and a few bones. JIUnting parties are
being organized everywhere.
The temperature in Paris has shown a
slight improvement i'm the last day or
two, owing to the brilliant sunshine, the
mercury today standing above the freeZ-
ing point for the first time in many
days. In the country districts the cold
is growing more intense and the weather
bureau sees no immediate probability
of higher temperatures. The thernom-
cter registered degrees below zero at
PuY-de- Dome.
The cold is likely 10 prove disastrous,
as many farmers have sown late wheat,
trusting to a repetition Of the mild au-
tumn and winter OF the past few years,
and it is feared that crops in many
places will be destroyed.

10 not receive a perceptible shock.
Fall planting has been successfully
used in many localities, and where all
conditions are favorable, it is a safe
venture.
Large deep holes with plenty Of
moist earth in the bottom should be
provided for any tree. During trans
planting, the roots must never become
dried either by the wind or from the
sun Another very important phase
in tree-transplanting is TO make the
soil very, very firm around its roots.
If the soil is well prepared and in
proper condition, il is impossible to
make it too firm. More newly trans
planted eyergreens die on account of
the planter failing to make the soil
firm about the ROOTS than from any
other single cause. This is the only
safe way to exclude the air from the
roots. and unless this is done, failure
is sure to follow.
