Mangan's Musings

Because the teams composing the
Katy league will play Sunday games
II will be impossible for the local
branch of the Katy to join the asso-
citation. However, the Tulsa en-
ployes of the road will have a ball
team, the games to be played on sun
day. f.. w. Dunn, general agent has
been named manager and is now in
search of games. G. h. Rees is secre-
tary-trcasurcr, while f.. Coin is the
temporary captain. Although not def
initely scheduled ii is probable that
the first game will be the Katy office
employees at Muskosee one week from
today.

LIMESTONE TO CORRECT SOIL
Some Experts Have Especially Fa
Vored II Because of Its Lower
First Cost-Lasts for Years.

Pulverized limestone has recently
been much recommended and some
experts have especially favored 1t be-
cause of it's lower first cost Although
it is sold at a relatively low cost a
ton, farmers should study it's avail
ability in connection with their own
specific soil conditions and always re
member that the results from its use
cannot be expected promptly.
Limestone is carbonate Of lime and
it will require twice as much an acre
to furnish as much actual lime as is
contained in burned lime.
Pulverized limestone is fool proof"
1t can be applied to a soil in any de-
sired quantity within reason, so as to
suffice for many years, without in any
way endangering the soil. 1t teaches
out very slowly.

CONSTRUCTING A WIRE FENCE
Where Mixed Types Of Live Stock Are
Kept GeneraI-Purpose WoVen-Wire
Fabric Is Needed.

The best kind Of wire fencing to
erect depends on the purpose for
which the fence is used. On a farm
where mixed types of live stock are
kept, a generalpurpose woven-wire
fabric is needed. If only cattle and
horses are to be pastured, a coarser
and less expensive woven fence can
be used. When fencing is needed to
inclose extensive pastures where only
cattle or horses are to be kept the ex-
cessive cost of woven-wire fence
would not make 1t desirable, for losses
TO stock by injury on barbed wire
would not be large enough TO coun-
terbalance the difference in the cost
of maintaining the two different kinds
of fences. This applies TO the extern
siye farming areas OF the West
Department Bulletin 32l.

WHITE ANTS DEADLY WORK
They Are Slowly Killing Japanese
Pine Tree One Thousand
Years Old.

The famous pine tree at Karasaxi,
on the shores of Lake Biwa, near
Orsu, celebrated from ancient times
as one Of the great sights of Omi, is,
says the Kobe Chronicle, in danger.
For some years past the tree is said
to have been showing failing vitality,
which was generally attributed to the
effect of the smoke from steamers
plying on the lake. Close inspection
by Nawa Sci, noted entomologist,
at the request of Governor Ikematsu,
has disclosed the fact that the ia
nous tree is infested with white ants
which, according to the entomologist,
have spread to the tree from the
many poles sustaining the numerous
horizontal branches. The prefectu-
raj authorities have decided to take
the necessary steps for the preserva-
ton of this famous tree. The Kara
saki-nomatsu is said to be a thousand
years or more old, and although its
long, spiderlike shape, with boughs
covering a radius of some two hum
dred feet, is not particularly pleas
ing to the foreign observer, the tree
is regarded by the japanese with an
admiring veneration which is indi-
Gated by its inclusion in the eight
poetic attractions of the Lake Of
Omi (Lake Biwa).

/. PRINTING in Mexico In 1856.

OF almost more interest than any
thing connected with the Church of
Santa TeresaRde la Antigua in the
City of MexicoIis the fact that the first
printing press in the new world was
established in the corner house ad-
joining the sacred edifce. 1t was
brought from Europe at the request
of Bishop Zumarraga in 1886 by Vice
roy Mendoza. The first printer was
Juan Paoli of Brescia, Italy, who was
sent to Mexico by Comberger, Mrs.
John Wesley Butler writes in the
Abingdon Press. The Spanish mis-.
sionaries made good use of the press,
which was active nearly a century
before a similar establishment was
set up in the United States.
