Death Watches In Enql and.

Prisoners under sentence of death
are never left alone for moment. In
England two warders are in attend
ance both day and night to prevent the
possibility of suicide or escape. Three
clear Sundays of life are allowed to
the murderer after his sentence. Usual
ly he is hanged upon the Tuesday aft
er the third Sunday. Some visitors are
allowed, but not even the most init
mate relatives may kiss, embrace or
even take the hand of the prisoner.
During the awful three weeks of wait
ing the condemned man may choose
any food within reason, may smoke
and may read what he likes Just be-
fore execution he may have drink of
brandy. A man about to be hanged is
the only person who can hear his own
burial service read.-London Express.

Diviners of East Africa perform
divination by killing a fowl and sprin-
king its blood on or near the thresh-
old, "a practice most frequently OBJ
served when a chief has fallen seri-
ously ILL.," 1t is far cry from Uganda
to the shores of Scotland. but here is
an incident that runs the Uganda GUS
tom close enough, surely. In GER
tain place which does not consider it
self less enlightened than similar COM
munities of its size Il friend was one
day suddenly asked by woman, a
neighbOr (whoSe son, young lad, had
fallen down in q fit, to run for doc
tor. This he promptly did, and, re-
turning before the arrival of the doc
tor, was pleased to see the lad had
come to in the interval, and said so to
the mother. Yes" she replied. "but
what a pity We hadn't live cock to
bury in the garden" Not only so, but
my friend on expressing his surprise
to another party, was shown garden
quite close where a live fowl had been
buried on a precisely similar occasion,
thus testifying to a more general be-
lief in the efficacy of such a charm
than could be imagined.-London Tit

Meant Well But

Viscount French of Ypres often tells
an amusing story about a French re-
view that he attended a good many
years ago.
General French, as he then was, at
tended the mems dinner in camp one
day, and as he puffed on his cigar he
noticed that 300 young Frenchmen had
nothing to smoke whatever.
Accordingly he sent to his tent for
three boxes of Havanas, and these
were quickly distributed among the
troops, rare treat truly. To show
their gratitude the soldiers without
consulting their sergeants lined up in
two files, marched toward the English
general, and, raising their right hands
to their caps and holding their lighted
cigars in their left hands, they shouted
as with one voice:
give Ia Russe!"
They had mistaken the Uniform
Washington Star.

29 cents. Tie dfTsaament now be- communities if they wish to tax them selves at a higher rate than is now legal must carry, else our sovereignty ss people is in danger. Indeed it is hard to understand why a state should place any constitutional limit of taxation for education upon It's people. It is like saying by law that no family shall spend more than so much per week for food.
 To have good schools for our chIl- dren we shall have to allow any com munity to tax itself twice the presep' legal limit and then have the state step in and aid wherever the commun- ity has so little taxable property that it cannot even then maintain good school for a minimum of say seven months Gin many states it is put ar eight months) The state must then pay the difference. Last year there were some 100000 children not in school at all, and some day they will all vote.
 As a matter of sell-protection to a good citizenship Arkansas should pro vide a good public school education for every boy and girl.
 The solution is a township or coun- ty tax for school purposes instead Of the present district tax, which will do away at one stroke with the more ob- yious inequalities of taxation between adjoining districts, one rich because d railroad runs through it. and the other too poor to afford a school worthy of ,be name. And then the state must compel attendance for a minimum of seven months of every child, and pay auY lalance that is yet necessary to a,SiAtCin the school.

FERTILIZERS AND HORTICUL
 TURF.

TURF.
 The fruit and vegetable growers are always leaders in the use of plant foods for their crops. This is espe- cially true of the vegetable growers. What they wish is rapid growth in their produce, so that they will get the vegetables on the market in the shortest possible time from the time of planting. This is the secret of success with vegetables, and the only way to meet such conditions is to ap- ply fertilizers in large quantities. In the next paper we shall tell about the home garden" and how to fertilize it. In the present paper we are to tell more particularly about fruit trees and other horticultural plants.
 The relation of apple growing io fertilizers has never been very care fully worked out. We know that the use of fertilizers with fruit trees, and especially apples, pays, but we have not yet worked out the best formulas for the various kinds of trees, nor the amounts which pay best. Brisbin says. in his book on Trees and Tree Planting" that in planting young trees large quantities of manure should be used in preparing the place for planting These manures should be rich in plant food clements if the trees are expected to make rapid growth. The best way to increase the plant food in manures is to add to the manures the mineral elements in various forms. and mix with leaf mold ana maHures Brisbin also rec ommends that weeds should not be all lowed to grow around the apple trees, as they will take up the plant food which is put down for young trees
 The best method of producing fruit is to keep the field or orchard clean by growing other crops which require constant attention and culti- vation. Most farmers and horticul- turists fertilize the crops that grow in the orchard, and in this way save the expense of fertilizing the fruit trees again. In many instances le- gumes are grown as cover crop, and, incidentally, to furnish nitrogen. The orchard cannot be cultivated toe
