Sudden Death. , Prosperity no tnoro secures happl Bees nnd Influenco than Juno Insures iiunshlno. Apart from that spiritual rrtate which makes for peace, tho actu al cbntentment of men or womon In pur world Is chiefly founded upon tholr rotation to work. Tho Idlor Is nlways jwretcbod. Tho worker, as Ruskln and jCarlylo persistently taught, la truly enviable when ho has work, when ho jfecls It fairly within his poworn, and (when he takes pride In his perform ance of It, and then only. A story of victory in tho face of ap parent failure may bo read by tho stu ident of human history in an obscure paragraph of an English nowspapor, petting forth nn Inquiry by a coronor't court into the death of an old dreusi maker who had boon run ovor on t London street. Mary Anno Druco wai seventy years old, and lived with her sister In Pop' lar. Sho left homo dally at eight o'clock In tho morning, and reached tliero about nlno nt night. Sho had a small old-ngo pension, and earned lolght or nlno shillings a week. Hor tamtlro incomo during her many years of sowing had probably boon equal In Ita buying power In nn American city to less than f 5 a wook. But this slendor dole of shillings, (contrasting with tho long hours of work, was not tho wholo story of tho dressmakor's life. Witnesses furthor testified that sho had beon omplpycd by ono firm for 40 years, that sho was '"tho prldo of the workroom," and that 11 tho employees woro "much upset" on hearing of her death. So tho quaint "tribute runs. Forty yearn of toll, and thon sudden ideath 'Overtaking ago and unguardod weakness I It is a grim nnd gloomy record In tho nowspapor history of nn ambitious, monoy-lovlng ago. But sho Iwas "tho prldo of tho workroom," nnd ber fellow workora lovod hor. That is uroly writ large In tho Oroat Book of jllerolo Deeds.

Slnco nil of our apple orchards must bo Irrigated it is neceapary that beforo planting tho trees tho land bo prepared ns much as possible In or der to facilitate irrigation.

CELERY NEEDS MUCH WATER There Are Few Localities Where Good Crop Is Raised Without Some Irrigation. (By.W. rt. 1IHATTIE, Hureau of Plant In dustry, U. B. Department of Ag riculture.) Celery Is grown for Its tops and requires plenty of molsturo at ita roots, and in most t&sea a part at least of this must bo supplied by irri gation. Tliero aro fow locnlltlcs or soils on which good celery can bo grown without more or less watering. Occasionally wo find a pleco of muck land underlaid by a strntiun of spring wntcr which rises toward tho surfneo In sufficient quantities to render Irri gation unnecessary. In Its natlvo habitat celery grows on marshy land; however, tho im proved varieties do not thrlvo on land that is constantly saturated. Tho best results in celery growing aro obtalnod whero tho noil Is perfectly drained and whero tho necessary molflturo comes In the form of rains or is sup plied nt tho will of tho grower, A vigorous crop of celery will requlro a supply of molsturo equal to ono Inch of rainfall for each ten days of its most active growth. Whllo the plants nro small tho amount will not bo so great, and ngaln later In the season when boII evaporation has become les sened not so much wator will bo needed. Tho method of applying the water will depend entirely upon local con ditions. A fow growers nro bo fortu nate as to lin supplied with water by natural resources, such as a stream that may bo handled by gravity, arto Hlnn wells or underground Bprlngs tho wntcr from which rises In tho soil If tho outlots nro shut off. By far tho grenter numbor of growers of celery must provide both tho sourco of water supply, cither In tho form of walls or by placing a dam across a stream, nnd also tho mouns of lifting and de livering tho wator whoro needed. In this dny and ago no gardener is living up to his opportunities who does not huvo a wnter system from which ho can Bupply molsturo to a part of his garden at least. In a few cases tho supply of water for Irrigation can bo drnwn from tho system of somo city, but ns a rulo a special pumping and distribution outfit must bo provided. Tho method of handling water that Is in most common ubo among grow ers is to employ a gasoline cnglno and n pump of n typo suited to local conditions. Tho typo of lifting dovlco will also dopond upon tho method of distribution nud the presaure required. Whoro tho water Is to bo lifted but a fow feot and discharged Into an open ditch or a wooden flume tho simplest outfit consists of a centrifugal pump bolted to a gasollno or steam engine. This typo of outfit will work whero tho olovntlon Is not moro than 30 or 40 feet, but oven here tho pump must bo lowered almoBt or qulto to tho lovol of tho wator In tho woll or rescn voir and tho upper or dlschargo end of tho plpo must remnln open, Thoro nro several good makes of centrifu gal pumps upon tho market. This typo of pump should as a rulo not bo selected whoro tho water Is to bo de livered through linos of pipes, but only Into, open ditches or flumes whero thcro will bo no back pressure. POULTRY NOTE8. A little salt now and then is rel ished by tho sitting lion. When blddlo sings lustily sho is feeling good nnd will lay. Oardenors consider pigeon manuro tho best of nil fertilizers for both veg etables nnd flowers. An utility bird Is a bird that will glvo tho bost financial returns In a year lu eggs and flesh. Don't niovo lions and pullets around In different quarters In tho lato fall it you want wintor layors. Look out for frost bltton combs. It tho comb Is frozen It means no eggs till It Is thoroughly hoalcd again. Put a fow drops of tincture of Iron in tho drinking wator twlco a wook. It Is an oxcollsnt Bprlng tonlo for tho fowls. Old hens nnd cocHerols should bo fattened and sold. Thoy can bo fitted up for use by boarding houses and roatnurnnts. Qlvo the chickens plenty of range, plenty of wntor and tho laying habit beforo cold weathor. Starving them will not promoto growth of foathcrs. Mix finely cut onions or chives In tho turkey's food. Monl mlxod with milk or water Is good, also boiled potatoes mashed flno, with pepper added. A sitting hen hates to bo disturbed oven by her own kind. By placing hor nest In a placo secluded from tho othor chtckona you will sccuro largor hntchos. Koop tho poultry housa clean; by frequently romovlng droppings all nest material nud all other dust and dirt Is tho beginning of kooptng down insect pests. And again look out for vermin and disease at this tlmo, ns tho birds will bo moro subject to them during the moulting porlod than ut any other dur ing tho year. Tho most plentiful of nil the large sized, heavyweight squab producers Is tho Carneaux. It Is close feathered, well proportioned, actlvo and has hoavy weight. In tho hottest weathor tho llco and mites breed tho fastest If you allow thorn around. Keep tho henhouso cool nnd clean and they will not trouble so much.

Thcss. B:U. IIovo wo not set tho cong of tho Christian llfo to much to the tuna of difficulty, danger and sorrow? "In everything glvo thanks," I am pretty certain, will, In tho roultltudo of in stances, bo translated as meaning that whatever difficulty or distress enters your life, be of grateful mood. Do not murmur. Be glad through whatever roughness the water wear as we voyago across their uncertain billows. I am cortaln of two things In this matter. First, that this Is how this Scrlpturo la protty gonerally .viewed, and second, this is not what It doos actually mean. It docs mean that, but It moans Indefinitely more. A farm la on a landscnpo; and ho who confounds fnrm and lnndscnpo Is not soolng things as they aro. Difficulties nro to bo oncountorcd and sorrows nro to bo met and they aro to bo mot with tho mood of manly and womanly resignation to tho wldo-worklng will of God. But that wo aro to bo grate ful for tho clouds rather than tho sunrlso and thj noon nnd tho blosscd opon sky Is to mo absurd nnd a list-, loss Interpretation of tho good Ood our Heavenly Father. To bo glad on a holiday is as devout as to bo sad on a funeral day. Wo shall pot need to rcsot our estimates of Ood nnd his will concorning us boforo wo nro In har mony with his mood. Ho Is tho glnd God of out-of-doom and tho happy singing things whether thoy bo blrdB or children or women or strong men. This anaemic notion of religion Is un wholosomo bocauso It Is untruo. God glvos no assont. A good man and great said this: "In everything glvo thanks." Nobody but a good and great man could havo said It. Tho sentiment Is llko Mount Lycabcttua from whoso top all of hlstorlod Groeco lies undor tho eyes without straining an oyoball. All llfo Hos at tho baso of a mount of vision and of praise llko this: "In everything glvo thanks." Tho fact which Is moant to bo lifted into light at this moment Is that thoro is a dovottonnl element In all things whatsoever. Wo say graco boforo meals, except wo to hoathon. Wo ofton Bay graco boforo labors and battles without or within and reading of books and taking of Journeys nnd husking corn or going to picnics or a ctroll through sun burnt fields for tho sheer lovo of tho crisp grass undor foot and tho hot sky ovorhond. Wo do narrow beyond tho permis sion of God this thought of devotion or wo must be at church or prayer mooting or nt family prayer to bo do votlonal. Thoso places nnd occura Hons aro greatly good, but thoy do not monopollzo tho moods of devotion. Tho devotional framo Is tho deop con sideration. Aro wo opon to dovotloa for all things as Paul was? It 1b meet to glvo thanks for tho bird voices, and n good way to glvo such thanks is by listening to tho voices. That is worth wolghlng. To love things enough to glvo things heed Is n mood of gratltudo, whereas not to caro onough for things to notlcq them is a ilrst-claBS spoclmon of ingratitude toward God and his doings. Tho srlckot's chirp Is n speclos of poetry which may woll sot tho heart singing aftor its fashion, too. Such a little warmth makes tho crlckot sot his hoart to song. Wero wo as good at tho voicing of our grntltudo as the crlckot of tho hearth, what n shout of chorusing would tho great God hear from mon. Tho religious nature is wiser and widor than many religious folk aro glvon to supposing. Christianity Is generosity. "Thank God!" How ofton havo I found my own glvon to tbnt gust of gratltuca "thank God I" And I am not slow to bcllevo God hoars such prayor and Bmllcs with gladnosa to hear It. Why should wo not glvo thanka for tho finding of n wild flower or tho striking graceful noss of a child at play, or tho toss of npplo branchos lit with blopm. or tho bluo jay's noto with Its musical un muslcnllty. No, socularjtlos aro just thomo for pralao and prayor. Wo havo no call to ask for things for, which wo have not call to answer to God In spon tanoous words of thanks. "I thank you" Is a phrnso which the debonair ubo frequently. Courtesy is a good habit for a body's own sake. To bo gonteol 1b a soul-instinct of flnonoss, and if a roan or a woman lived alono tnd broko bread with himself, (al though such a way of living Is not necessary or to bo desired. If ono Is alono and has no rolatlvcs. then should such a ono borrow somo child, or, better, somo homolcss body, some body human, not feline nor canine, to keep allvo tho humaneness In ono's own soul), ho would do well to say: "I thank you" wh6n ho passos food to himself, for bo would tho method of good manners bo kept allvo and tho social Irnpulso would bo hearkened to "Fathor, I thank theo," says tho Christ; nnd "In everything gtc thanks," says his brainiest followor. And for ono I will tnko this advlco nnd will find provision for dovotlon In overythlng, books, folks, church, la bor, song, tonrs and caros, And for tho loast and largest to tho God and Fathor of our urd Josua Christ will mnko my adoration for the Christ, my Saviour and my King. ACCHSINMI Holes in the Atmosphere Often Cause Disaster. Aviator Files Into Empty 8pace and ' Without Warning Falls Like a Stone Dangers of Aerial Whirlpools and Collisions. Paris. In regard to flying accidents In general, thoy may be roughly divi ded Into thoso duo to (a) faults in tho machine; (b) atmospheric difficulties and dangers; (c) ''o "human equa tion." As to (a), tho aeroplane may bo faulty in prlnclplo and construction, or tho materials may bo to blame. As a rulo, whoro tho aeroplane 1b at fault tho cnglno Is tho root of tho evil, and one great dangor to aviators Is over heating of the engine or somo port of it. You see, an neroplano cnglno has practically to work at full pressuro the wholo tlmo tho aviator Is lu tho nlr. A railway cnglno driver who gets a hot bearing can Blacken or send bis fire man to put thlngB right. Tho aviator's greatest cafety lies In maintaining a high speed to slacken may mean disaster; ho cannot attend to tho nffected part hlmsolf and ho hns no ono to help him. Tho practical ly unavoidable overheating of tho en filne, wlfh tho rcsv It of a Budden stop page or loss of pewer, followed by n headlong dash to earth, Is a frequent causo of disaster. Turning to (b), tho sea, with nil Its known and charted currents, tides, rocks, and so on, still wrecks ships, but tho nlr Is a thousand times moro bnflllng than the sen. Its density and its presBuro nro constantly changing; tho aviator may at any moment fly into an aerial whirlpool, a gust of wind, tho configuration of tho lnnd over whiph ho Is flying may Introduce sudden dangers not previously enemta tercd, upset all his calculations nnd ex- pcrlenco and send him smashing to the enrtn. Personally I havo n theory which may explain ono or two hitherto lnex pllcoblo flying aclcdent8, says a write! In Pearson's Weekly. I bcllevo thai The Baroness do la Roche Accident thcro nro, so to speak, "holes" in th air, that through causes I havo not yot mado suro of n vacuum Is creatod in tho ntmo8phero. Tho aviator flics into this empty spneo, and without any warning drops llko a gigantic cannon ball. A neroplano may weigh half a ton or moro Imnglno that, If you can dropping through n "hole" In tho nlr. Now wo como to tho "human equa tion," In othor words, mistakes on tho part of tho aviator as a causo of disas ter. A frequent causo of accident, more especially In tho earlier days of avia tion, was tho airman's taking tho all at too steep an nnglo. It is a Uttlo difficult to explain or paper, but pleaso imnglno n mnn try ing to climb up a perfectly smooth In clined plonk or surfneo which nffordi him neither hand-bold nor foot-hold, So long as tho plank Is at n moderate mnglo thero will be sufficient friction botweon It nnd his body to cnablo hlro to stny on it, even to wiggle his way along. But tilt tho plank upward, and nt a certain anglo nothing can save him, ho must fall backward. Now, In aviation tho nlr Is tho plank, tho neroplano being on it. If tho nvla tor rises too sharply It is llko trying tc climb up tho smomii plank tilted up right Ho ennnot do It tho machine must drop to earth. Similarly In do acendlng, If tho aviator comos down at too sharp an anglo tho machine must fall to tho ground ns Inevitably as a man lying on n smooth plank hond downward must drqp when It Is tilted upright. So far 1 havo only dealt with the risks of flying duo to tho mnchlno, tho nlr, the man, but in conclusion thoro Is tho danger that aviators causo to each other by flying too close to another machine. The recent terrlblo nccldcnt to tbo Baroncs do la Roche is said tr have been caused by another nero piano flying near her. I do not know what truth thcro Is In this chargo, but an neroplano Is not constructed to stnnd sudden pressure from nbovo, and a real paint of danger arises whon one mnchlno Is below unothor, Thoro Is still ono causo of flying no cldonts that I hnvo not yot mentioned That Is tbo growing tendency of tho public at aviation meetings to expect tho air mon to fly, whatovor tho condl tluns. That brutal spirit should bo sternly suppressed. Japanese Thank British. London. Cnpt. Y.
