This is the latest Paris boulevard

Hindenburg died, and since he was
a marshal he went to heaven. But

H~indenburg descended to hunt for

crown prince.

Growing Sugar Cane Under Paper.

A new and very odd method OF
growing sugar cane is proving highly
successful in the Hawaiian islands.
When the cane is beginning to sprout,
yard-wide strips are laid l%engthwise
over the row Of little plants and held
in place with %cane-feld trash. The pa
per is strong enough to keep down and
smother the starting weeds, but not to
kill the stout and hardy young cane.
In five or six weeks the weed seeds
beneath the paper have all germlnat-
ed and been smothered to death, but
the cane shoots have either forced
their way through or erected them.

like elevations. Laborers then pass
along the ows and with long knives
make Sits in the sheets, permitting
he shoots to come through. The lib.
Grated shoots at first IRE blanched
white, but quickly turn green and
lusty. Wedding thereafter is almost
wholly needless. because there are
very few weeds. There is an increase
of ten tons (about % per cent? In the
yield Of cane per acre. Half the labor
Is saved and the production Of actual
sugar per acre is augmented by more
than q ton. The paper used is made
out Of ~"bagasse," which is the residue
OF the cane after the sugary sap has
been squeezed out Of It,

in Morlaix. He was tattooed all over.
There Was nothing in his military note

campaigns. He was a soldier, pure
and simple. AS Bouligny says, he was
typical of all that was best in the le-

7eutons IN H1story.

The term Teuton is of Latin origin.
In ancient times the part Of Europe
now smbraced in Germany was called
Germania, and one of the principal
tribes of the country was called by the
civilized Romans Teutons, just as we
speak OF the Apache Indian. Being a
fierce and warlike people they gave the
Romans a great deal of trouble, and
they We're the dominant tribe Of that
region the name of Teutons gradually
came to be applied to all the people oc-
cupying what was called Germania. It
has survived in the form Of Teutons.
