Rain and Snow Help State.

Throughout the State the late
storms were heavy, much snow fall
ing in the higher parts and rain in the
valleys. While some damage has been
done the moisture will greatly bene
fit the entire State The ranges will
grow abundant feed for stock this
spring, the ground in the valleys has
been thoroughly saturated and will
need less irrigation, and when water
is needed for that purpose it will most
likely be sufficient from the snow in
the mountains Altogether the storms
have been generally beneficial.

alton in Punjab. India.
Considering the advances already
made In India. II Is estimated that be-
fore many years the Indian crop will
be almost as large as the American
crop. The model plantation In India
will demonstrate the benefits which
arise from intensive farming, thereby
encouraging the landed proprietors to
adopt this system and to improve the
fibre. -.
The land viii be sown with as large
q percentage OF American cotton seed
as POSSIBLE, and the agricultural de-
partment Of Punjab will have the right
produced which is not required for the
Estate. for distribution In other dis
tricts. -#I
The federation has secured a 20
years lease OF $500 acres close to the
railway and water supply. A modern
ginning mill Is to be erected, and as
there is scarcely any population in the
vicinity, model villages are to be estab-
lished for the worknen, who are to be
brought In and instructed by experts.
Leading members OF the federation
believe that within few years ii will
be possible to increase the Indian cot
ton crop to 10000, 900 bales without en-
eroaching on the area required for
food. Manufacturers in all countries
using Indian cotton are subscribing to

on this account. Another passenger,

on protest by the Austrian consul was
he released.

HOW 70 SPRINKLE LAWNS
II 10 Not Enough to Water the Surface
OF the Ground-Should
Be Soaked.

Sprinkling the lawn Is an ever-pres-
sing duty during a hot, dry summer,
and most summers are both hot and
dry. Almost every one who ever
sprinkles a lawn feels that he knows
precisely how 1t should be done, but
the United State department of agri.
culture has published a bulletin Of
directions for scientific sprinkling,
Bad watering, the bulletin says, is
responsible for many poor lawns.
Most persons believe that when they
have moistened the surface Of the
ground they have done all that is
necessary. This view is erroneous.
The bulletin says that merely to mois-
ten the surface will cause the roots
Of the grass to grow near the top, and
a few hot days will dry them up and
kill the grass unless the sprinkling Is
regular and continuous.
The best way, according to the ex-
perts OF the department of agriculture,
is to sprinkle on one spot from six to
twelve hours; then on another spot
for the same length of time and so on
until the whole lawn is thoroughly
moistened, the sprinkling being SO
slight that not a drop of water runs
OF and is wasted. The water then
sinks down into the soil, the roots go
down after it, and the grass can better
withstand protracted drought.
There are a few persons who sprin.
kle their lawns in this way, but the
great majority do not. Undoubtedly
there is much bad sprinkIing which
does the lawn more harm than good
Unless good Judgment is used in the
time and manner of sprinkling it will
be better not to sprinkle at ALL Grass
is persistent and not easily killed, but
as between being scalded to death by
improper watering or scorched to
death by drought there is not much
choice, and the scalding is quite as
effectually deadening as is the scorch-
ing-if not more so.

Ius4 a Pinch Of Snuff,

The special bulletin Of the North Da-
kota agricultural experiment station
for June has a sweeping condemnation
of the snuff habit. In spite OF the
drastic law passed by the legislature,
manufacturers and dealers in other
states are selling immense quantities
of the snuff using the parcel post for
delivery.
The snuff chewer is soon ruined nerv-
ously and mentally by the habit. 1t Is
supposed that the article contains some
habit forming drugs, as cocaine al
though II Is almost impossible to de-
termine this fact. The nicotine can be
taken so directly into the system that
the use of snuff is much more injurious
than the use Of tobacco.
DIR. Ladd declares that the use Of
snuff Is the greatest evil or vice Of the
day In this state, and that its use has
increased more than 100 per cent in
from three to five years. The custom
first came into the state through the
foreign population but has spread al
armingly, especially among boys and
the laboring people. 1t is a habit which
Is almost impossible to break. The law
prohibits its sale or giving it away,

Horse Flesh Is High. Why2

From the Chicago Record-Herald.
In the day of old one of the recurring
jokes Of New York paper had to do

by nosebag.
There were many such horses mum

the primitive spectacle with its sug-

litter. But there has been a change.
On one of the streets yesterday a
passerby counted seven automobiles on
one side and 13 on the other. all in a
single block. In the lot there was q
gas-driven delivery wagon, but there
was not a horse drawn vehicle to be
seen.
We all know that the automobile In

and how thorough the change from the

Preparing For a City of 100000.
From the Christian Herald.

An elevated railroad from New York
to Chicago, high enough to be level
regardless OF topography, and q sub
marine tube railway along the pleasant
scenery Of the ocean bed between
America and Europe, are among pro-
jects which have had their day of pub
licity. The Maritime association Of the
port of New York, an entirely serious
body, recently had discussed before it a
plan to annex Manhattan to Long ISL
and by filling in the East river from
Hell Gate to the Battery, the creating
of a trunk line sewer from the north
ern suburban limits to a disposal ter
minal miles at sea, Jersey and Staten
Island having tributary lines; the
building of q cape from the lower end
of New York almost to Staten Island,
and connecting that island hill with the
city by tunnels. The idea has been de-
clared desirable and practicable, inclu-
sive of the expenditure of $10O,000,000
a year to bring 1t to pass. DR.. T. Kan
