Ho was pastor of a church in Nowburyport for forty years. Ho did not like now wuys and when a church near by purchased an oigan ho referred contemptuously to "our neigh bor's box of whlstlos." Once somo un wise parishlonors conspired to modern ize the music a llttlo In their own church. They did not toll the pastor; only, when It came time for the first hymn, the tentative, gentle, prolongod opening wall of a bnuo viol was hoard.

When ho got oppoBlto 21th street ho missed his footing In tho dark nnd foil. As ho shot through the trcstlo his head struck one of tho tics, and ho landed on the ground unconeclotts. How long ho lay there he docs not know. When he nwoko It was with the consciousness of great pain In his leg. Ho tried to yell, but IiIb volco was weak and ho wnB unnble to speak above a whisper. The pain In his leg made old perBplra tlon cover bis body. He waited for what seemed an hour In tho hope that sonic one would pass along and lend him assistance. The place was an mulct as a grave, and ho could not hear oven tho rap of n policeman. Ho started to work his way from under the trestlework, but i every attempt to move forward made him scream with naln. Finally bo Ho struggled with himself to keep from losing consciousness, fearing that hc might never awaken. When hc felt that ho had gained enough strength to venture on he began his laborious and painful task again. After hc had fltrug glod along between restB and partial unconsciousness for whnt seemed to him n week ho began to break down. Ho rested from his labors awhile, thinking somo one would surely hubs along, but no one appeared. He spied some salt sheds near by and made his wny toward them. When hc reached tho sheila the night watchman was making his Inst round. Just as tho watchman discovered Starr the latter fainted.

YV1111U stated that once when ho was at Ber lin, after all the diplomatic corps had been duly presented to his wife, tho Chinese minister, In pursuance to cus tom, brought round hla principal secre taries and presented them to hla col leagues. Among these wns a tall, flno looking man, evidently a Europenn, dressed In a superb court costumo and covered with gold lace. As his Chinese colleague introduced him to Mr. White in Gorman, tho conversation was con tinued In that language, when suddenly this splendidly dressed personage said In English: "Mr. White, I do not see why we should bo talking In German. I come from Waterloo, In western New York, and was educated at Rochester university under your friend, Dr. An derson." Mr. White said that had tho gentleman dropped through tho colling it would not havo seemed more surpris ing, and that It was hard to believe that the pretty llttlo vlllago of Waterloo, or even Rochester, with all the added pow er of this noble university, should havo boon ablo to develop a creaturo so gor geous. It turned out that tho gentle man concerned, after graduating at the Unlvor3lty of Rochester, had gono to Chlnn with certain missionaries, had then been takon Into the Chinese serv ice and had proved to bo a thoroughly Intelligent, patriotic man, faithful to his duties to China, as well as to tho United States.

Snm Up-tn-Dnto Hint Alioat Cult! ra tion r tlin Noll and Ylrldi Thereof Horticulture Viticulture nml Iflurl culturn. AVING to depend entirely In ngrlcul turo on tho success of plants In tho field to furnish human food and animal fodder, tho farmer should un dcratand how plants grow. Tho seed, In a favorablo condition of tho doll, putB Its root downward, to bear fruit upward later on. Tho best condition demands humuB to make plant flesh, mineral mat ter, to furnish fibre, glazing and tubing to retain solids in solution, and carry in water all particles that aro rcqulslto and necessary to their own places in tho plant structures, drawn by tho rnys of the sun. Hence the first law given to man by Moses, in Genesis: "Lot tho earth bring forth grass, hsrb bearlng seed (weeds), trees bearing fruit, -whoso seed la In itself." It wns so, and God saw It wac good. "Nature absorbs a vacuum." Animals hato bare ground. Many farmers bellove that plants breathe. They cannot without lungs. To resplro, to Inhale and exhale air, henco to live. The action of sun shlno on tho leaves of plnnts is to draw molsturo out of them, through the plant's structure, directly from tho soil. During tho past summer, hundreds of trees on our farms, In shallow soils, dried up, and died for lack of moisture in the earth, within tho reach of their roots. In tho dry countries of Iowa the meadows and pastures now aro very baro ground. Hence half the number of cattle for the. next Bummer pasture will bo tho wisest policy for profitable results. "Grass enough for two cows, but ono cow on." In ovcrgreen and deciduous trees, tho leaves that lack sunshino soon dlo. A picket fence will destroy plant leaves and branches in its Bhadow. During the past summer In sunshino with molsturo tho plant growths were prolific. On tho lawn, all trees overshadowed in part, all day long, the shaded part died, while those parts shono on at somo tlmo In tho day lived and made a healthy growth. Tho sun can draw molsturo out of plants, but never drive It into them. Richard Baker. l'imtiirra. I have several pastures of flvo acres to 200 acres. I keep no certain number In each pasture, but change according to season and tho amount of stock on hand. Usually try to keep each kind of stock by Itself, and chango nbout so as to givo a variety of feed. Some times havo to keep horses, sheep and cattle in samo pastures, but think horses and sheep do best, and cattle with hogs if necessary to mix them. Cattle do not do well with sheep, nor horses with hogs. Part of my pastures aro wild grass, part aro fed into June and blue-grnss, and part are old tim othy meadows run Into Juue grass. Tamo pastures are black loam and sandy with clay subsoil. Wild pastures aro mucky loam. Often feed cows fod der, straw and damaged hay on pas tures near barns. Sometimes put barn yard manuro on pasture if no other place Is available. Like both trees and sheds In pasturo and barns for winter. Havo no ponds, but running stream In open ditches and windmills with tanks. Am compelled to have both tllo and open ditches. Prefer tile. Would sow several kinds of those adapted to soli and climate. Havo somo rail, somo flvo board, some barb-wire and some woven wire. Prefer woven wlro flvo feet high. O. Dinwiddle, Lake Co., Ind. Illinois IIortlrultur.il Convention. (From Farmers' Revlow.) Tho fourteenth annual convention of tho Illinois Horticultural society was held at Kankakee recently. In rovlcwing tho fruit lists for Illinois a discussion aroso on the pro tection of fruit trees from rodents. Va rious mothod3 were advocated, among them being fish oil nnd axle grease. Thcro was, however, danger of using theso too much, especially on young trees. Instances wero given where such trentment had resulted in the death of tho trees. Trees ten years old would not bo harmed by tho treat ment An apple grower said he know of an orchard of 2,000 young trees that had been killed by using too much oil. Mr. Williams had been using for twelve years a paint mado of soap, tar, sulphur and lime. Ho put it on the trees with a common paint brush. It makes a thorough glazo and will destroy ! every insect. Ho bolieves also that this 1 paint has tho tendency to protect from I sun-scald. Tho llttlo lime, in it, when ! tho dry weather comes, turns the mass , to a grayish color that throws oft tho rays of tho sun and thus keeps tho bark of the trco from cracking. Ono man that had tried tarred paper thought thoro was great danger from using this, as It was not takon off early enough In tho spring, in which case the tar from tho paper works into the troc. Ho had trlod paper mado out of felt, and untarred, and found this to work very well, if It wero but takon off early enough In the season. Ho now uses strong muslin, putting it on every fall and taking it off every" spring. He had trlod this now for-threo years. Mr. Burnhardt expressed himself ns cortaln that the rabbits would lot tho trees alono ir they only had enough of other things to oat. He had beon Bt tlrg out treos for twanty-flvo yoars and had never had any trouble from rabbits. But there had always been nbout his placo somo brushwood or trees for them to work on. Tho scattering ot somo kind of grain on tho ground would servo to kcop them away from the trees. Mr. Augustlno suggested that there must bo dlffcront varieties ot wild rab bits, for tho kind thnt lived In his vlcln. ity began to gnaw tho trees as early as July. Mr. Gilbert protects his trees by using only common wrapping paper, such as can bo obtained In any grocery or dry goods store. Ho tearB theso papors Into strips eight inches wide. Theso ho wraps around tho treo on tho bias, be ginning near the ground, nnd stopping twenty Inches abovo it, whero ho ties tho paper. A discussion aroso on tho value ot tho yellow transparent for commercial orchards. Somo believed It a mistake, to plant largely of this variety on ac count of Its poor keeping qualities. However, when In good shape, it sells readily, and men from Southern Illi nois expressed great faith In Its com mercial value. Much tlmo was devoted to tho discus sion of tho efficiency of spraying, and successes and failures wero reported. Tho prevailing opinion was that tho failures wero duo to Ignorance in do ing tho work. ! Question. How many havo experl- ' mented with spraying mixtures? Twenty-seven replied affirmatively. Question. How many recommend spraying? Thirty-flvo votes wero cast for It, and none against it. The growing or small fruits was dis cussed, and the growing of straw-berries in hills came up. While hill culturo gives largo, line berries, yet growers on a large scale do not follow It, aa It does not pay for tho extra trouble. Tho question of fertilizers was dls cuBsod at length. The most impor tant point developed was that tho ex tensive uso of barnyard manuro mndo ' It possible for tho soil to use a greater mass of chemical fertilizers than If It wero not used at all. Thus In tho neighborhood of large cities the market , gardeners aro enabled to use immense quantities of commercial fertilizers be causo they also uso immense quantities of barnyard manuro. Mr. Morrill, of Michigan, spoke on tho marketing of fruit. Tho first requisite is to havo something desirable to mar ket. Ho could not tell a man how to market undesirable fruit. Tho great necessity with farmers is to learn how to co-operate in the sale of goods. The co-operative organizations havo largely failed for the reason that there seemed a jealousy against any man being paid to look after the work. He believed tho tlmo to bo approaching when farm era would uso moro business-like methods. Tho superintendent of tho Insane asy. lum at Kankakeo spoke on the great success of irrigation at that placo. The water for the irrigation works ia pumped by steam engines that can sup ply from 100,000 to 200,000 gallons per dny. The cost for this pumping Is only three-tenths of a cent per thousand gallons. During the last season they had raised vegetables worth over ?G,000, By a vote of tho society the life mem. borshlp feo was reduced from $20 to Tho election of officers resulted In tho following choice: President, Mr. Good rich; vice-president, Lom Small; sec rotary, H. M. Dunlap; treasurer, Ar thur Bryant. The next annual meeting will be held, at Springfield. William Gould spoke on the culti vation of grapes. He plants 8x8 or 7x9, which glve3 about 700 vines to the acre. Sulphur for Sheep. The American Sheep Breeder says: While sulphur 13 Indispensable for sheep, as furnishing one of the Important elements of the fleece. It must be given In such a way as to bo available for this purpose. It must bo In the food. It cannot bo given In tho crude form, In which It Is not a food, but an active medicine, producing a laxative action on tho bowels and an cxccEsivo excretion through tho skin. It Is this which makes it useful ns an antidote to all kinds of parasites, the sulphur' thuo passing through tho skin being extremely offensive to all in sects. But Its action on tho skin is to open the pores nnd thus mako the ani mal more subject to changes of tho weather, and especially to' Injury by rains. It is thus not desirable to give sulphur as food or nutriment except In tho food, such as whlto mustard or any other plant of the turnip and cab bage tribe. TransplantlugLarge Trees. Garden ing glvei this method, and wo can cer tify to its being a good one: Wo prefer doing this In tho spring, nnd would pre pare for it now. If you want to inovo a moderately large tree, say four, ilvo or even six inches in diameter of trunk, next spring, head in Its top now all you think ought to bo dono at planting time, then mark a ring on tho ground around and four, five, six or moro feet away from the stem, the distance away depending on the size of the tree. Now, along, but outside of this ring mark, dig a narrow trench say three feet deep, tho object being to cut away all roots projecting beyond it, and fill up tho trench at once with tho samo eotl that came out ot it. By spring tho tree will havo fairly rocovored from the shock caused by cutting In root and top, and may bo dug up and transplanted with fair chances of success. Armour Buying Corn. P. D.
