Pruning Roses In Spring.

For the production Of individual
blossoms of greatest perfection, as well
as to secure succession Of bloom,
severe pruning of cut-fower roses must
be practiced, says the United States
Department of Agriculture. Where
a large number of blooms Of small size
is the aim, the pruning is less severe.
In the spring, dormant roses which
have been. set in the fall should be
cut back, leaving only or stems
with 4 or eyes Oh each. This will
leave them 6 inches or less in length.

From the York Gazette and Daily.
Open rebellion in the congregation
Of Christ Lutheran church, broke out
Sunday morning at the congregation
al services, when an opposition rae
ton presented candidates for othces
to run against those nominated by the
vestry. Dissension has been brewing
in the congregation for some time and
came to a head with the nomination
of three elders and two deacons, when
a representative of the opposition was
refused the privilege of the floor to
name deacons and elders other than
those presented to the vestry BY DR..
George Z. Holtzapple, wh9Ipresided.
When w. H. Reynolds, city clerk of
York, persisted in explaining to the
congregation the reasons for Offering
opposition candidates, cries of "sit
down." throw him out" and "get the
police" arose from the audience. Men
rose in their seats as though to COM
ply when DR.. Holtzapple motioned the
organist to play and the choir voices
Joining in with the music drowned out
the shouts. No violence resulted.
The fight will be carried to the floor
of the congregational meeting to be
held Monday, April II, when the cleo
ton of offices will be held. Last Mon
day night the vestry, in session, ig-
nored the demands of committee to
permit them to enter the names of
candidates for church offices. The YES
try was then informed that the matter
was to be brought to the attention of
the congregation at Sundays meeting.

WHALES NOW PLENTIFUL

Seattle, March 3I.-Gradual cessa-
ton of whaling on the North Pacific
coast has resulted in the big whales
getting SO numerous as to get in the
way of coast-wise shipping, according
to Captain Mckenzie, of the Steam
ship Liberator.
Enroute up the coast from San
Francisco, the Liberator bumped into
whales three times, in each instance
passengers and crew experiencing
small earthquake fright.
Whales of the sperm and bow
head variety seemed to swim around
us in schools, at times impeding prog
ress of the ship, for fear Of damaging
the beam plates" added Captain Nc
Kenzie.
The steamer Queen, which arrived
Saturday from Ketchikan, reported
running pell nell into school of
these leviathans just off Colvos Rocks.
The whales had been seen for half an
hour spouting, but instead of dash
ing away as the Queen approached.
encircled the ship, and the shock of
several rubbing against the plates
abeam was plainly felt.
During the past six months the
whaling fleet working on the North
Pacific has dwindled to 20 vessels. No
longer 40 they cruise far seward nor
into the iceberg region for the bow
heads. The big mammals are encoun-
tered lust off the coast. Some of the
whalers operating from Gray Harbor,
Wash. get big catches within sight OF
their rendering station.
Consequently, with the dismissed
hunting and the prolific habits of
whales. they are increasing rapidly.
Mariners do not have much trouble
from them, for it is the whales Gus
tom to go seward into deep water
during the spring months. returning
down the coast via Bering Sea and the
Japan current in late summer.

polls, Ind. The exhibits, which filed
the Manufacturers building and
building adjoining on the State Fair
Graunds in Indianapolis, made up one
of the finest collections of flowers ev-
er displayed, and presented a wonder
full spectacle. The main building, $50
feet in breath and 300 feet in length,
was filled with virtually every known
collection anil specimen of flowers.
In speaking about the show, Mr.
King is very enthusiastic. The decor
atoms in the building were gorgeous.
he stated, with exhibits from almost
every state in the Union and many
displays from Canada. Possibly the
most wonderful exhibit was the COL
lection of acacia plants, valued at
more thap $1,000. Thirty varieties
were included in collection, compris-
ing every known specimen in the
three varieties-the tree, bush and
umbrella. They varied in height from
3 feet TO 9 feet, and the coloring eff
fects were marvellous. An idea of the
extent of the acacia exhibit may be
gained when it is stated that the cost
Of transportation alone from Massa-
chusetts was more than $4,000. The
exhibit was placed about the fountain
in the center of the building.
Mr. King also told of the remark
