BI0Odhounds are Gentle.

There is no real reason for the
common belief that a bloodhound
is a fierce animal. 1t is, on the
contr airy, rather noted for its
gentleness, even seeming timid,
unless specially trained to at
tack.
The origin of the breed, &C.
cording to Count LIE CouteulX de
Canteleu, an authority on the
subject, is from St. Hubert of
St. Hubert's abbey in the Ar
dennes. Itdates from the ear
lest ages, and the breed certain
ly existed in the time of Gauls.
AS regards the name blood
hound. the Count LIE CouteulX
believes that when fox hunting
in something like its present
form was instituted it was founC
that the sleuth hound was no
fast enough for the purpose, anC
the present foxbound was evolv'
ed from various material, anC
about this time it became usual
in speaking of the old hound o.
the country, to call him a blood
hound, meaning the hound o.
pure blood las might be said O.
a blooded horse) to distinguish
him from the new hound or fox
hound. There is only one breet
of pure, genuine bloodhounds
and that is the English.

Girl Must Live on 81, 470,

Surrogate Fowler, of New
York City, believes it possible
for a 16-year-old girl to live on
$7,479 a year, so he denied the
application of Lorena Carroll, on
ly daughter of the late Joseph D.
Carroll, millionaire horseman, to
have her allowance increased
from that figure to $18,500.
The girl, who lives with her
mother, said in her petition that
she must have the latter sum tC
maintain herself 'in the mode OF
life and the manner of living tt
which one of her station in life
is entitled"
Under her fathers will, Miss
Carroll receives the income from
a trust fund of $4,000. Wher
she becomes of age she will re
ceive the residuary estate o.
$4,000. Her mother receives
$1,000 annually from a trust fun(
but says she is unable to devot,

The Fruit Garden.

Keep all fallen fruits picked
up. The best way to do this is
to have sheep or hogs in the Or
chard; they will eat the fallen
ones. These fallen fruits con-
tain the grubs of insects, and by
killing them you lessen next
years pests.
Bag the grapes. This might
have been done earlier, but some
good will still come of attending
to it now. 1t will help to pre-
vent fruit rot, and the birds will
not steal the fruit.
After the raspberries are
through fruiting, the old canes
are taken out. The canes made
this year will produce the fruit
next year. Burn the prunings.
Strawberry plants that have
been grown all summer in pots
and set this month will bear
next spring. Use an abundance
of manure in preparing the
ground to insure a good crop.
Spray the apples twice with
bordeaux mixture to prevent in
jury from bitter rot. Put arsen
ate of lead in it, to destroy late
Matched insects. such as the fal
web-worm.
Has a neighbor or friend
choice variety of fruit of which
you would like a tree? During
August you can bud it on tt
stocks of your own. Get him Il
give you a few ''bud sticks.

I'm The Poultry Yard.

During this month and the
next fowls start Noting, and
they should have some especial
attention until this period, which
generally lasts six weeks, is over.
If you want to force them to
start molting the process is often
done by feeding light for a week
of two and then feeding heavily.
The advantage of an early
mott is to have hens all feather
ed out and strong and active be-
fore cold weather starts.
Most hens lay somewhat irreg-
ularly during the lnolting pro.
cess. and little can be done tc
remedy this state of affairs.
1t is generally thought that
hens that mott early make the
best layers for the winter months,
By the end of October they
will start laying when eggs are
most needed. Meat in some
form is almost an essential dur
ing the molting period.

Crop Outlook

The State Department of Ag-
riculture in its recent summary
of conditions says there is every
probability of good crops of corn
and tobacco. In addition the
yield of wheat has been about
the average, oats a little above
the average and the condition of
the hemp crop is placed at 81
per cent. This is certainly a ia
vorable showing. With good
crops of corn and tobacco we are
assuredof prosperity on the farm.
And prosperity on the farm
means an enormous boost for
commercial conditions generally.
If the corn and tobacco shall hold
their own the harvest will be
large financially for the farmers
whereat every inhabitant of the
Commonwealth should rejoice.

Facts About Holland.

Perhaps no neutral country is
more affected by this war than
Holland. She is maintaining an
army at the present time of
something like 100000 soldiers
to meet any crisis which may
arise.
Every adult citizen is liable to
personal service in the army CT
navy from the age of 10 20 40.
Actual service in the ranks is
determined by lot, but substitu-
ton is not permitted.
Hollands population is about
81 millions. It's navy consists of
seven battleships, four cruisers,
about forty torpedoboats, six
submarines and eight destroyers.
Hollands frontiers are de-
Tended by very few fortresses.
The great line of defense is the
water. Stretching across the
middle of the country from the
Zuyder Zee to Dordrecht runs
Hollands famous water line, by
means of which section after
section of the country can be in
undated, thus barring the prog
ress of any invader from the
land side.
Queen Wilhelmina succeeded
to the throne in November, 1890,
when, she was ten years of age.
Fifteen years ago she married
the German Prince Henry of
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS., and they
have one child, the little Prin-
cess Juliana, who is now seven
years of age.
Holland has proved harbor
of refuge to thousands of Bel
gians who fled when the Ger
mans invaded their country.
From the beginning of the war
the Dutch have fed, clothed, and
sheltered tens of thousands,
without homes and without a
country. One charitable society
! has had as many as 10000 home
less Belgian children in its care
at one time.
