ORIGIN OF WAR TERMS Curious Bits of History Woven About
 Arms and Munitions

From the New York American.
 With the exception of shrapnel, named after its inventor, an English colonel there are very few war terms now in use which have British origin.
 Sword, musket grenadier dragoon are all alien terms. "Grenadier' is generally supposed to come from the French The word is. however of German birth, and originally was "grenatier," the force ow- ing their name to the hand-grenades with which they were armed.
 The word "musket'' has an Italian deri- vation; ''moschetto.' which was really a species of small sparrow-hawk In an- cient times and in the middle ages the name musket was used to designate a small mortar which threw arrows
 When gunpowder was invented a small cannon was baptised ''musket," and later the rifle of the ordinary infantryman earned the name, while the whole unit was called ''musketeers."
 Both "dragoon'' and "cuira ssier" come from the French. The dragoon had a dragon painted on their shields, and the cuirassiers carried a breast-protection made of copper-in French "cuivre."
 'Hussar'' comes from the Hungarian word "husz" which means twenty" The force derived it's name from the fact that long ago every twentieth recruit in Hungary was placed in one of the mount
  ed regiments.
 The uhlans owe their name to the Turks. It comes from the Turkish word "oglan," youth.
 "Sword' comes from the Polish word .'Ezabla" and ''pistor' from the Italian town Pistoja, which was famous in the middle ages for it's arms factories
 The bayonet takes its name from the French town Bayonne, where the inven- tor lived some 125 years ago.
 ''Howitzer'' is derived from the Czech word "houfnice." a wooden apparatus used in ancient times for the purpose of throwing stones. We meet with the word also in the Hustle war, in the fifteenth century, where the weapon figures as "hauffnitz."
 The officers rank of major was derived originally from the Spanish word may or" signifying great or high.
 Even war" itself comes from a foreign source, coming down with the Italian and Spanish guerra" and the French "suerrs" from the old German "werra."

A CORNER IN ANCESTORS
By FRANCES COwLEs. The Preston Family

Patriotic Record of the Prestons--
 strawbrldges of English-Irish Or
 igin-Nfudge Records--Atwood Her
 aldry.
 Copyright. 1915. by the Mcclure News
 paper Syndicate)
 Of all the SO called local names m Eng land. Preston is one Of the most usual; and of all the English names in Amer ica, it is surely one of the most Illus trious. In fact, so illustrious have the American members of this family ren- dered the name that the Prestons need not turn to England to claim distin- euished origin.
 But the fact is that Preston iss a very old name and was established as a surname as early as the time of Malcolm I of Scotland in the tenth century. The derivation is simple and undoubted by the authorities. It was originally Preastons-tun or priests in closure or homestead, and the first Trestons adopted 1t from the designa- ton of the locality in which they lived. A family of this name was said to have been founded in England by one of the Scotch nobles chosen by Edward of England at the death of his Scotch wife, Margaret, 10 arbtrate between Ba1iol and Bruce for the crown of Scotland. This family long resided in Westmoreland. and, it is as- sumed, gave rise to most if not all, of the Prestons who emigrated 10 this country.
 The most distinguished branch in America, so far as national reputation goes. is known as the Virginia branch. The founder of this family, William, came from Londonderry, Ireland, whith- CT his father and three uncles had mi grated under King William. William Preston married Elizabeth Preston and came to Virginia in 1740 with her fath- CT, Col. Jsmes Patton. He commanded Q merchant ship and had grant of 10000 acres of land lying abov. the Blue Ridge mountains. Williams first residence was in Spring Hill Augusta county, but in 174s he moved to the vicinity of Staunton, where he soon after died. His wife and children moved to Greenfield, where she died in 177s
 The children of William Preston. all porn in Ireland, were Letitia. who mar sltu 1oiouti Ol iNtiiti'NN . Margaret who married the Rev. John Erown of Princeton college and Ken tucky; William. and Ann, who married Francis Smith of Virginia.
 It has been claimed by some If the proud bearers of this name that the prestons alone have been of more con sequence to the country than have been all the Mayflower descendants put to- gether. Although this statement sounds rather bold, and is just a statement, anyway. surely very few single fam files can claim more distinguished roll call during the last 300 years.

AZ rule, late celery grows better
than early because the weather usual
~ begins TO get cool by the time the
plants have got a start and cool
weather with plenty OF moisture Is
what IL takes TO make good celery.
Rich soil IL also an important fac
tor but most important OF all Ii good
plants. Unless strong, stalky, well
rooted plants are used there Will be
little chance for crop.
We usually put the late celery in as
a second crop, where potatoes or some
early vegetables have been grown. In
the North late July or early August
time for setting out the plants. In
the South II should be done "a month
earlier.
The ground is worked up deep and
fine. then double rows are made six or
eight feet apart To allow plenty OF
room for banking up.
Each two rows are placed about ten
inches apart and the plants are set
about eight inches apart In the row.
Shade the plants for the first few
days, II the sun IL warm. but don't
shut out the air. or the plants will die.
II the ground is not very rich, spread
manure from the poultry house along
the rows, a little distance from the
plants, and pour water on the ma
nure
This keeps the ground moist and al
80 furnishes nourishment for the
plants.
After they have made some growth,
begin TO hoo up a little OF the earth
around the plants every few days.
This makes them grow faster. But be
careful not to pack II too close. Give
tho plants room TO grow.
