The attorney general has given an oplnlor
in the matter of fees of county treasurer
covering the question as to whether the per

amount. The attorney general holds that
the whole amount of money collected should
he figured. The opinion says :
In making the computation to ascertain
the amount of fees which a county treasure :
Is entitled to for collecting state money ,
i-hould the amount of money collected for
the county and from ull sources upon which
that official is entitled to fees be taker
into consideration ? My answer IP that thrv
should , except the school funds. Section &
of chapter xxviil of the Compiled Statute
makes this clear. It is therein provided
thut on all moneys collected by the treas
urer he shall receive 10 per cent on the llrM
KJ.IKK ) . etc. . and in computing the amount
collected for the percentage , all p-urn * from
whatever -fund derived shall be included to
gether , except school funds. In the cant

the supreme court was arked to say whether
or not the treasurer of Gage oountv , IE
collecting the amount of feet , -which he was
entitled to receive , should separate the city
money from the county and Btnte funds and
figure upon the city moneys alone. The court
decided lhat he could not ; that he must
calculate the amount of 'his fees upon the
entire amount collected by him upon -which
hewas entitled to receive fees , always ex
cepting tue school fund.

Inexorable law of the survival of the fittest
must prevail.
There are hundreds ot kinds of wheat the

are of special fitness for their own reg on

PROCESS OF BREEDING.
The breeding process is very interesting.
Out in the nodding grain you may hpe a
advanced student in
man perhaiie an
vounc
the college , or , if the task be an exception
ally delicate one. maybe a professor from
the institution. His work Is to fertl r.e or
w'beal 'flower ' with another ol
to pollr.ulze one
a different type. The flower of wheat Ifi nelf-
fertilizlng , and the same process is con-
utantly carried on over and over again , the
type of wheat maintaining itself through
the centuries. The grain of wheat which
may be found in the mummy windings In
some death-home on the banks of the Mle
will if it hi * maintained Its powers as It
is seriously claimed it may germinate on
some western prairie , fertilize iteelf through
Its own flowers , Just us its progeny would
have done through all the years since the
pyramids were builded , had it been given to
the rich earth.
The wheat -flower is what Is called a perfect
one , having all the ewentlals of reproduc
tion within .Itself. The anthers , the small
sacs filled with fructifying pollen grain , burst
open , the yellow dust it. sifted down upon
the stigma , moist to catch and to hold the
dust , germination takes place , a tubellke
prowth penetrates the stigma , grows down
into the ac , or ovary , where the grain ker
nel is developed , and the new eced Is formed.
So great an authority as Hdhrl de Vllmorln
of France , one of the greatest of the world's
fcfedsmen , mvs that not once in Un thouB-
and times does the gram of wheat renull
from pollen .being . supplied by another flower
from the same or another plant I shall not
forget the wonderment witch filled the fine
face of this man whu.e life has been spent
in the midst of the largest heed industry
of the world and in the agricultural service
of the French .Government , when , in company
with a party of World's fair commissioners ,
representing the leading nations nf the world ,
he looked for the first time upon the limit
less yellow plains of the Dakotas when the
harvest was ripe for the paruerlnp.
THE FLOWERLNG STAGE.
But we must not wander from our young
man in the field of grain. With delicate
Instruments he takes a head of the wheat
which has juwt entered tne flowering stupe ,
cuts away the top and a part of the spikes
at the bottom of the head , and leaves u
dozen or BO ot the strangest flowers thus
treated remaining on the head. This head
will be of some well-known and vigorous
type of wheat , crown' from selected kernels.
Another head from some other equally well-
kugwn species Is similarly treated , The ker
nels were planted in the spring , in single
hills twelve inches epurt each way , and
they have been eared for with -the most
scrupulous attention , In order that they may
develop into the sturdiest strength ,
When the two heads have bucu treated in
this manner the operator deftly removes the
anther from one flower of one type of wheat ,
and breaking it open , situ the pollen it cou-
talua down upon the uioitit stigma of the
other flower , having previously removed the
anther from thU latter bower , so that elf-
fertillzation has been prevented , The oper
ator has thus acted ut an aid to nature ,
taking the two vital elements of reproduc
tion , joining them , uua adding thereby to
the plants of the world * new life most
wonderful ot fccu. He has created , or aided
nature to create s new grain , with untold
possibilities wrapped up in its delicate green
home lor the advancement of the commerce
of the world.

Tilp is known us the Shepard system.
The 7ieople of Onmhui have known of it for
years , since Dr. Shepurd hup been estab
lished here. It Is a system that applies
thorough local and constitutional treatment ,
with medicines specially adapted to each
Individual cane. It hup notnlnp to do , with

be expected to make a successful union.
All these wheat kcrne-ls are plven numberr

numbers they and their progeny iiold throuph
all the years of the experimentation. The
numbers are recorded in a large book. Brery

When the work of fertilization has been

ARTIST AND ENGINEER.
"It lie cannot have both hindi ? of knowl
edge he should have 'the first , and get si.Tie
one else to "build the road , since there are a
dozen who can answer the question 'How'
to one that can answer the question 'Where ? '
If there Is grading to do he should under
take it "with the feeling of an artist rather
thun un engineer , since the shaping" of park
surfaces is more nearly allied to sculpt1. -
than to the building of railroads. If people
give u monument , K fountain , or u relic of
any kind nnd It niust be accepted , hr should
know how to subordinute it to the general
effect desired.
"But in most cafccB the superintendent will
be require-d to carry out the design furbished
by some one else. Even then it is important
ho should know something of the principles
of deslpn und should have a lnowlcflpe of
trees shrubs and flowers , with their various
requirements ; hp should upprpclate the fulue
of large open spaces and varied outlines ; he
should know what constitutes a peed road ,
when It has goad linca and proper construc
tion ; he should know how to make the-
border of a lake appear natural and IntercBt-
ine.
SHOULD UNDERSTAND LANDSCAPE
GARDENING.
"To put the whole matter briefly , a park
superintendent , in order to fulfill his duLrs
ia a satisfactory manner , should have some
knowledge of landscape pardoning. ThiB is
just as important as It is lor a man who
conducts an iirclmt , \ to hare some knowl
edge of music. The conductor may not be
able to compose an opeia , but he should bf
able to appreciate a peed composition ; und
puttlnp a man In charge of work required to
maintain und create beautiful scenery who
has no special kriowledpe o flandsenpe url
would be like nuking a man who cannot heat
time or tell one tune from another to act
us leader for an orchestra.
"It is , to be sure , uu advantage for a pfcrlt
superintendent to have some knowledge of
engineering. He should know bow to put in
drains , water pipes , build roads , walks , and
do ull the various kinds of engineering work
usually needed Iu the construction of a park.
He should * also know how to prepare tfce
various plats and records of euch works that
maj' be needed for reference.
"J believe this knowledge can be pained
by the person who has also the desired nc-
cjuuiutanuc with landscape gardening , but if
the superintendent IE to be deficient In either
line the deficiency can be most easily sup
plied from other sources if it U lack of
knowledge of engineering.
SHOULD BE IN LOVE WITH HIS WORK.
"The Idea park euprri tcndeut should be
thoroughly in lovr with "his work. 1 have
known a number of such men. One hud
charge of a large tract ol land , which was
really a public park , although U was not
culled , such , and was not managed by a city
council or by park commisBlcmiys. 1 remem
ber vlslttnp him many years ago ; he would
call my attention to bits of soenery the
border uf a lake , an undulatinp lawn , eir a
distant group of red pines , by reflecting them
iu a mirror which he carried for this pur
pose , and which framed In and separated the
view in question or the picture belup ex
amined. He showed these views with utt
much treasure ut. a mother would exhibVvJ1
showing her baby.
"Apuln on going to t.ee him early one
morning , I found him greatly Interested Iu
a ravine drive. He had actually been liring
tu important drain with his own hands , Ou
another occasion , ut his ofllce , he took preut
pleasure in showing hie various books which
treated of landscape gardening und blrde. I
know another superintendent , who is still
living , who for many years wae in the em
ploy of the late Henry Bhaw of EL Loulb ,
and who itIII ; looks after Tower Grove park ,
who showf as much interest and affection for
hie lawuc , trees , shrubs and lilec us a parent
would show for a child.
HIS POSITION SHOULD HE SECURE.
UJut this deep interest , which is so essen
tial for producing the best results , cuifnot
be expected from a man whose position Is
insecure1 ; from a men who may be dh >
charged when the otiicr party pets in x er.

. plunatlon now and then , calling the atten-
I tlon of a mere laborer to the beauty of a

"On the other hand , the superintendent
can often help to educate the park commie-

sioners should be a man of peed taste the
superintendent should show a readiness to
learn und profit by any ncvlce that may be
piven.

tendent will have an intimate knowledge
of the design of the park and be brought
in close relation with the park commissioners - ' >

Influence will come from his relation to the

the music of birds.

PRECIOUS GRAIN.
When once the product of the initial kernel
of wheat IE ripened und garnered great cut *
is taken with it. It le carefully weighed und
measured , and its wtlgbt In prams IB re
corded Iu the book which Is to hold ull It *
history. It is n precious head of wheat
which tops out tlilt nodding stall ; , lie pussl.
Irilltlps are beyond the leu : of men. The
kernels are carefully thr _ hed out , uafl the
beat , und only the best , kernels ot the head
are kept The operator takes the product of
the head in his bund and throws it across a
blanket. The poorest grains wll | full ehort
of a given Hup ; the best uud heaviest tines
will go beyond. This is the method pursued
In. say , the second or third year ; the first
year the operator will trust to nothing but
his sight uud judgment , uud he picks out
the best kernels , tint by one. All the- In
ferior kernels ore thrown away. The aim Is
to select ouly the most hardy and excellent
of kernels for the planting. WT-itb preut care
the kernels arc kept isolated for -the next
year's planting ; happy the experimenter if
there be propitious weather from curmlua-
tlon to paruerlnp1 And so the work re
presses through the loup series of yrars.
Starting with a clnple kernel , the operator
hUE leap to wait until the Increase from that
single yellow particle IK pronounced enough
to be marked , but when that point IE reached
the increase will proceed with wouderful
rapidity. Let us suppose that one of these
new wheats which have bren created , und
which lit a small way hci > been t-hown to be
much superior to the wheats now in use , iiad
the whole uutilled gralo-ilfild of the earth
before it , how long do you suppose it would !
be lit-fort this tingle isolated kernel -would
produce all the wheat -used in the world ?
