Dewnrait alca Bellefonte, Pa., May 20, 1898. FARM NOTES. In setting out an orchard as soon as the trees arrive plow a deep fur- row and heel them in preparatory to planting, deepen the furrow to fif- teen inches with a spade, cut the twine which holds the bundle together, spread out in the trench and cover with dirt. After all the trees are in, wet the roots thoroughly. They can safely stay here until the land is in proper order for planting. I plant my trees in rows 32 feet apart and 16 feet apart in the row, making 80 trees per acre. The rows run north and south. : Well drained land is essential to a good orchard. I plow north and south where I wish the rows of trees to stand, plowing as deeply as possible and having the deep fur- row come where a row of trees is to stand. plow up the bottom of the dead furrow, stirring as deeply as possible, then by back furrowing make a ridge on which to set the trees. When the land is properly staked scoop out a large deep hole where the tree is to stand and place some good soi] in the bot- tom, having it highest in the centre. Never bend the roots, cut back bruised or broken roots to sound wood. Plant two inches deeper than the trees were in the nursery. Lean considerably toward the two o’clock sun, with the lowest and heaviest branches on the south west side. Plant when the soil will powder and pack it very carefully about the roots. Use the hest surface soil for filling it. Never let pure manure come in contact with the roots, but place it on top of the ground. When the hole is three-fourths filled, wet with four or five gallons of water and after the water has disappeared finish filling it. Staking is never needed if trees are well planted. Mulch trees with coarse manure or straw six inches or more in depth. Do not let grass or weeds grow in the orchard. Thorough cultivation eight or nine times in a season is a great factor in growing a successful orchard. Cornstalks cut two feet long and tied about the base of the tree are almest a complete protection against borers, mice, rabbits and sunscald. I plant the wide space hetween the trees to some kind of a crop, leaving plenty of room for cultivating the trees and fertiliz- ing them. It is better to plant no trees at all than poor varieties or to plant good va- rieties and neglect to care for them.’’ —1In selecting a site for a rosebed it is of the first importance to see that it is well drained. Roses will not do well on soil that is wet and soggy, or one that holds water. The ideal rose soil is a rich loam with a pourous clay subsoil, but as every lover of the rose has not got this sort of land it is well to remark that one can, by artificial means, overcome the natural de- fects of the soil and location. If the soil is compact, with a tight subsoil, then the top should be removed and the subsoil loosen- ed up to the depth of two feet and a quan- tity of gravel or sand mixed with it. If the location of the bed is not high and well drained tiie drainage should be provided. The top soil should be replaced, adding thereto a liberal quantity of rotted sods, rich compost and bone meal, thoroughly in- corporating these with the soil. The plants should be set three feet apart each way, says Vick’s Magazine. One of the worst diseases which afflicts our roses is the black spot, a fungous dis- ease which appears on the foliage in small black spots, which increase rapidly in size and number, and soon cause the leaf to drop. It is infectious and rapidly spreads to other leaves and plants, and soon -defo- liates the plants and ruins the flowers. It is a good practice to gather all the diseased leaves and burn them, thereby destroying the spores and checking the further spread of the fungous. But the only sure way of preventing the disease is to commence early in the spring, as soon as the leaves appear, to spray the plants thoroughly once each week throughout the season with Bor- deaux mixture. I find this to be almost a complete remedy for this disease as well as for the mildew, and much better than sul- phur for the latter. My roses are never troubled to any great eX¥ent with insects. The flowers should all be cut when they begin to fade ; if left on the plant they not only look unsightly, but check the pro- duction of flowers. Weeds or grass should never be allowed in the rosebed. In dry weather the plants must have plenty of water if flowers are to be expected. I find a mulch of straw or other litter of the greatest value in producing fancy roses. This mulch should be placed over the entire surface of the bed to the depth of six inches to one foot, or at least deep enough to prevent weed growth. It keeps the soil cool and moist during the hottest weather, and roses so treated thrive luxuriantly. One always regrets losing the tender teas and other roses during the winter. They always become so much better if wintered over. After some experiment I have dis- covered a method which is entirely success- ful. In brief my method is as follows: Take common, cheap lumber 12 inches wide and saw into lengths of 12 inches, nail these together as for a box, but with- out top or bottom. In the late autumn, before the severe cold weather, cut back the tea roses to within six inches of the ground. Set a box over the plant, fill with dry straw or sawdust and cover with a board so as to keep the tops dry. They will come through in perfect condition. —It is the habit of most farmers to plant a few potatoes for early use in the garden. But this is a bad practice, because often the potatoes are planted on the same ground year after year, and as the germs of disease live in the soil over winter the potatoes thus grown are likely to be diseased. Be- sides, where potatoes are grown in succes- sion the soil is filled with hard shell potato bugs, which'.come up just about the time the potatoes do and will often be found gnawing the pototo shoot before it is fairly out of the ground. It is much better to plow a clover sod somewhere on rich land for the early potatoes and reserve the gar- den for vegetables not so easily grown by field culture. —The tomato needs a long season to ma- ture its fruit, and frost often kills the vines just as the fruit is beginning to ripen. Strong stocky plants, well started under shelter and ready to put out in open ground as soon as danger of frost is over. are desir- able, but the tall, weak and spindling specimens so often offered for sale are to be avoided. The gardener may be overkind to his tomatoes by planting them in rich, damp soil. So treated the plants will make an excessive growth of vine and leaf, but bear little fruit. Planting on a dry piece of ground moderately fertilized will give better results. —Mortgages are like the wages of the sea—the vessel they hold up to-day they swamp to-morrow. New Naval Warfare. Interesting Description of How an Ironclad is Fought. Now that a new naval war is imminent the nature of the discipline on hoard an ironclad in action will be of interest to the general reader. The distribution of the crew for action is based on the principle of dividing the armament into ‘‘quarters,’’ and to number or name the guns so as to give them an individuality without refer- ence to their size. When action is immi- nent every one on hoard repairs to the al- lotted station, below, on deck or aloft. The gunner obtains the keys of the maga- zines, gives them to the men in charge, sees that the lights are lit and everything in working order. As soon as the guns are cleared away and loaded report to that ef- fect is made to the captain. When this has been done the gun crews are provided with small arms, upon which they close up round their guns and await further orders. A supply of light, quick- firing machine-guns, rifle and pistol ammu- nition is then passed up ready for distribu- tion on deck and a proportion of it sent aloft. This ammunition is served out first to the small-arm party and to boarders, and to the remainder of the crew as soon as their guns are cleared away and arms pro- vided. In each tube a torpedo is placed ready for discharge. Helmsmen are pro- vided ready to take charge of the hand- steering apparatus in the event of the steam steering geer being carried away. Order- lies, buglers and men stationed at voice tubes are ordered to repair to their stations but the use of the bugle in action is re- stricted as far as possible, as long and com- plicated calls are liable to be misunder- stood. The dress for men in action is as inflam- mable as possible, the blue working rig be- ing considered the best. There is no rea- son why action dress should not in future be saturated with the non-inflammable material similar to that now employed in all American ships of war. It is a curious point that in action boots and shoes are or- dered to be worn by all men on deck and in the tops. That portion of the crew en- gaged in the magazines are provided with list slippers. There was a great tendency in Nelson’s time to strip during action. This practice is now discouraged. Waist helts and patches are worn, and men who have pistols are obliged to wear them. A fire brigade, consisting of carpenters and stokers, screw on hose and rig all hand pumps ready for fire. A man is stationed at each water-tight door, which is kept open, ready to close it when the order is given. As the spread of fire may at any time menace the safety of the magazine, the key of the valve admitting water to the magazine level is either keptin the personal charge of the captain or at his dis- cretion by the officer in charge of the gun- deck. A supply of oatmeal and water for drinking is arranged all over the ship, es- pecially in the vicinity of magazines, ma- chinery compartments, stoke-holes and shell-rooms. No intoxicating liquor is served on the day of action on board any well-regulated ironclad. This is a great departure from the practice of double ra- tions of grog that were in vogue a hundred years ago. Every division of boarders ready to leap onto the enemy’s ship and take it by as- sault when its armament has been silenced has a special place of its own on the upper deck, wither the men repair when called. Every officer on board has a special station where he is to be found unless specially employed elsewhere. The danger of fire during action since the battle of Yalu has occupied close atten- tion of admiralties of all countries. All fires breaking out below the gun deck are in charge of the fire brigade, thus leaving the gun crews free for their important du- ties. When, however, the fire is likely to make head notwithstanding the efforts of the firemen one or more gun crews are called off as necessity may arise for the purpose of attending the hose. As a fire may occur in the neighborhood of a magazine or shell- room, and the supply of ammunition to the guns on deck during action be interrupted from this cause, a special drill for obviating this difficulty is arranged, so as to prevent slackening of fire, by the provision of shell and ammunition from other magazines. If the fire is on the gun-deck the gun crews are not told off to deal with it except in emergency, as the maintenance of rapid and steady fire in action is the paramount object of every commander. In case the fire becomes so serious as to make it neces- sary to go to general fire stations, the guns are fired or their ammunition is thrown overboard. The small ammunition on deck is either thrown overboard or placed in a convenient position for that purpose. Other details of action drill include the resistance to torpedo-boat attack, which the Americans are now hard at work prac- tising in their various squadrons. Ifan at- tack be expected by night in dry weather the decks, gun-carriages, etc., are white- washed—a device which in the absence of artificial light is of great service to the crew of a ship attacked by torpedo boats. The use of small arms is discouraged, as experience shows that no weapon using lead bullets is of much use in repelling tor- pedo attack, The guns in the firing-tops, as they enjoy the advantage of plunging fire through the unprotected decks of the torpedo-boats, are found to be the best pri- mary means of defense. The larger guns can only be used against torpedo boats for one or two rounds. They are reserved when hitting is practically assured, and then only in a last resource. The introduction of smokeless powder for the auxiliary arma- ment is likely to prove an immense advan- tage to the American navy, as with or- dinary vigilance the successful approach of a torpedo boat is practically impossible. In the event of a night attack, and in fact in action altogether, the use of the bugle is restricted as much as possible. None but important orders are now conveyed by it. The noise of action under any circum- stances is bewildering, the torment of the three-pounders in the tops being considered more trying than heavy guns in turret. Each gun, in the event of torpedo attack, is given a definite arc of the horizon to de- fend, and the gun crews ars forbidden from directing their aim at any object out- side the limits of those arcs. All the men at disengaged guns are as a rule ordered to lie down and to take cover as much as pos- sible, but they are not as a rule sent below during an action, as the service of the guns may be required to be resumed at any mo- ment. The fire discipline prescribed in the na- vies of the great powers is practically the same, though long experience has taught British naval authorities certain details of secrets of the greatest value, which, being confidential, cannot be disclosed in a news- paper article. West India Cables. Fully a Score of Them Connect the Islands With the Rest of the World. More than a score of submarine cables, operated by six different companies, afford means of telegraphic communication be- nba A cad, tween the West Indies and this country, and the places of particular importance are so well connected that any interruption in the service is regarded as unlikely by the officials of the cable companies. Neverthe- less, the vigilance of the Spanish censors at Porto Rico, Santiago de Cuba and Havana and of American censors at Key West and New York prevents the unrestricted trans- mission of news and causes delays in the dispatches which are passed by the censors as well as the suppression of messages which do not meet with favor of these of- ficials. From Porto Rico there are four lines, all under control of the Spanish censors. The cable of the West Indies and Panama cable company crosses the islands, and one line extends from Juan, on the north coast, the other from Ponce, on the south coast, both to Kingston, Jamaica. From the latter place the line of the Direct West India ca- ble company extends by way of Turk’s isl- and and Bermuda to Halifax, whence land lines and the cables of the Commercial ca- ble company afford abundant communica- tion with New York. From Jamaica there are also the double cable lines of the Cuba submarine telegraph company to Santiago de Cuba, thence to Cienfuegos, thence to Batabano, and across the island of Cuba to Havana. Four western union cables cross from that city to Key West, and thence to Punta Rassa, whence land lines carry the messages to New York. The other two lines of the West India and Panama cable company leave Porto Rico from San Juan and Ponce and extend to St. Thomas, whence a single cable runs through the Lesser Antilles to Martinique, and on down to Trinidad and South Ameri- can points. The French West Indies cable company can take a message at Martinique and send it to Porto Plata, Haiti, thence to Cape Haitien and on by several loops to Santiago de Cuba, where it can be taken by the Cuba submarine telegraph company. Or at Cape Haitien the United States and Haiti telegraph and cable company can take the message and send it by its direct line to New York. All messages coming from Porto Rico now have to pass the Spanish censor at San Juan or Ponce. But from St. Thomas messages can be sent by using the lines of three different companies, at heavy expense by way of Martinique and Haiti, to New York, and here they will come under the scrutiny of the American censor, who stands guard at the New York end of the line, at No. 17 William street. Upon the capture of Porto Rico the cable lines will fall into the hands of the United States, and Rear Admiral Sampson will be able to report to Washington either by way of Jaimaica and Halifax or by way of Martinique and Haiti.—New York Tribune. Reconcentrados Perishing. Wretched Cubans Dyiny of Starvation Between the Spanish and Insurgent Military Lines. Key West, Fla.,, May 15.—Affairs at Havana now appear to be worse than at any time since the Weyler regime. The fishermen, who at first braved the block- ade for the high price fish bought in Hava- na, now run the risk, not for money, but ‘| for the food which they obtain from the sea. A number of these men have been captured by the vessels of the blockading fleet, nearly all of them being released after having been questioned by our offi- cers. They all unite in picturing the state of things at Havana as being pitiful in the extreme. The Machias caught two fishing boats off Havana just before her return here. The Americans offered the fishermen money for part of their catch, as the fish were needed on hoard. But the fisherman demurred at taking money. They preferred to have bread, and were desperately hungry. They said there was little sickness at Havana but there was much starvation. The reconcen- trados are nearly all dead or have been ex- pelled from the city to die in the suburbs. The Spanish authorities, on the departure of the American consul, seized all the re- lief supplies and applied them to the uses of the army. The Spaniards then drove the reconcentrados into the desolate sections of the country, between the coast towns and the insurgent lines, the regions too barren and desolate to support grass-hop- pers. The insurgents have been chary of receiving reconcentrados, and hundreds of the latter, who had no personal friends in the insurgent camps, had heen left to starve between the lines. About Havana the situation is even worse. Hundreds of reconcentrados from Los Fosas, the biggest reconcentrados bar- racks in Havana, were too weak to walk out of town, and fell in the streets or died in the suburbs, were flocks of vultures, ‘“‘Weyler’s chickens,” as they are now termed in Havana, have feasted on the re- mains, In Matanzas this feature of the situation is equally distressing. The fish- ermen who have been brought here are mostly soon reconciled to capture, which means food and decent treatment. They say that if the blockade continues much longer, bread riots must soon follow in all the large towns, as food is reserved exclu- sively for the army, thus forcing many people to enlist, who would not otherwise do so. The fishermen say that certain of the most desperate of the Spaniards threat- en to burn Havana or blow the city up in the event of the authorities deciding to ca- pitulate to American forces. The Katahdin. A Vessel for Which Foreign Nations Have no Match. Naval experts have argued for and against the value of the ram vessel Katah- din as a factor in a sea fight, while all ad- mit that the ram itself is an extremely powerful and dangerous weapon. A ship designed exclusively for ramming is some- thing which is still to be tested, and at present the arguers are holding their peace, waiting to hear what the odd looking craft will have to say when she confronts an army enemy. On ber last trip she failed to make the speed required by her contract, and im- proved propellers of magazine bronze were substituted for those originally used. These had the effect of materially “increas- ing her speed and adding to the discomfort of those on hoard, for the work of speeding her is not at all agreeable to those who are below when she is in a hurry. When she is going at full speed the only objects visi- ble above the deck are the steel conning tower, which is used as a pilot house ; the smoke pipes, the ventilators and a slender signal mast, and below everything is a smother of heat and a deafening racket. The steel ram of the Katahdin weighs about fourteen tons, and as her hull, about fifteen feet back from her stem, is of the shovel-nose order, she throws a great mass of water up over her deck when under way. As this ram is her only weapon of offence, it seems as if this trouble could now be avoided. A peculiarity of her hull is the knife- edge which the deck makes in its projec- tion over the underwater part of her hull. This is expected to exert a great cutting force in case she could succeed in getting her ram through the plating of a ship she intended to sink. She has the advantage of being remarkably quick in answering her helm, and is steady going, even at her highest speed. Her disadvantages are said to be that she cannot strike deep enough to hurt a heavy battleship which she could catch, while the lighter armored vessels, which she could sink, could get away from her by superior speed. Another point which has been made is the possibility that her ram bow would he twisted off by the motion of a vessel which she might strike while it was at full speed in an effort to escape. All these points, however are purely speculative, and those who are interested in the hoat are waiting to see what will happen when she runs against a Spanish battleship. Spanish Cabinet Out. Sagasta Stiil at the Head.—Being the Liberal Lea- der, He is Charged With the Formation of the New Govering Body. The Spanish Cabinet resigned Sunday though Senor Sagasta will be charged with the task of forming a new one. The Li- beral Cabinet, under Senor Sagasta, was formed shortly after the assassination of Senor Canovas del Castillo, on August 8th, 1897. General Azcarraga, the then Min- ister of War, was first appointed president; but Senor Sagasta assumed office on Oct. 4th, confronted by the troublers in Cuba and in the Philippine Islands. One of the first steps taken by Senor Sagasta was to recall General Weyler. After the brilliant victory of the United States fleet under Commodore Dewey, on May 1st, the situa- tion became more and more strained, and the Minister of Marine, Admiral Bermejo ; the Minister of War, General Correa, and especially the Minister for the Colonies, were repeatedly attacked in Parliament. ‘The conclusion to be drawn from the reorganization, that they are seeking a peaceable solution of the American ques- tion, has for the moment been abandoned, and the war will be prosecuted vigorously.”’ “Four Ministers, Senors Gullon, Ber- mejo, Moret and Xiquera, will retire, part- ly for personal reasons and partly because of differences on important policies. Senor Sagasta will choose the strongest Liberals he can find, but several of the strongest, notably Senor Gamazo, have intimated that they will not take office at present. It is hoped and expected that General Correa, Minister of War, who has valuable quali- fications for his present post, will remain.” Havana is Confident. People Think the Americans Cannot Stand the Climate. Blanco has shown great energy in prepar- ing for the expected siege by the American fleet and land forces. The city and forts are provisioned for three or four months. It is believed the mortality among the be- siegers in the hot and rainy season will compel the Americans to raise the siege, Havana is now surrounded by entrench- ments for thirty miles. The troops in the garrison number 70,000, and a like num- ber are in the interior fighting the insur- gents. The condition of the reconcentrados in Havana grows steadily worse. The Span- iards ask them when their Yankee bene- factors are coming to relieve them. The mortality is increasing among the wretched class, who have taken to begging for morsels of food. Nobody in Havana except a few higher officers know that the Spanish fleet was annihilated at Manila, and the story is believed that the Americans. were beaten there. Blanco allows no unfavorable news to be circulated. It is believed in Havana that the cam- paign in the island will prove enormously fatal to the American troops and will be prolonged a year. Another account is that food supplies in Havana are good for a much less time, and that Blanco is in a trap unless the Spanish fleet breaks the blockade to allow supplies to come in. The Havana people continue light-heart- ed and the theatres put on pieces ridiculing the American fleet. Living on Horse Flesh. Provisions Running Very Short in Manila—Insur- gents Wanted to Attack the City. HoNG KoNG, May 15.—The United States dispatch boat Hugh McCullough ar- rived here to-day from Manila with dis- patches for the United States government. She reports that the Spanish gunboat Cal- lao, from the Caroline islands, recently en- tered Manila, being ignorant of the out- break of the hostilities. An American war ship fired across her bows and signaled her a demand for her surrender. The demand being disregarded, the American ships fired direct at the Spanish gunboat and the lat- ter surrendered. The populace of Manila is reduced to eating horseflesh, and the prospect of re- lief seems far distant. The Philippine in- surgents applied to Rear Admiral Dewey for his approval of an attack by them upon ‘the city. The admiral approved of the plan provided no excesses were committed. The insurgents then pleaded that they had no arms, with the exception of machetes, to which the admiral replied : ‘‘Help your- selves at the Cavite arsenel.”’ The city of Manila, however, has not yet been attacked. About 5,000 Spanish troops are guarding the road leading from Cavite to Manila. There is no truth in the re- ported massacre of a number of Americans. Starvation Near Havana. Cartloads of Dead Reconcentradoes Taken Daily Through the Spanish Lines. A tale of great suffering in Havana was brought to Key West, by Major Lima, in- spector of the northern coast of Cuba of the Cuban army under General Alexander Rod- riguez, who arrived last week with four of- ficers of his staff. Major Lima was taken off the coast of Cuba between Del Norte and Cojimar by a United States gunboat, and was transferred to a torpedoboat, which vessel brought him here. The Major is the bearer of dispatches for the United States military authorities asking for the co-operation of the latter and seeking arms and supplies. He may proceed to Tampa after conferring with Commodore Watson. Major Lima says the uprising in the vicinity of Havana has brought about fright- ful conditions of starvation. He adds that cartloads of reconcentrados who have died from lack of food are taken daily through the Spanish lines. The hodies are thrown together in piles, without any form of burial, for the buzzards to feed upon. Major Lima asserts that the Cubans around Havana are gathering strength every day, but he explains that they are in need of supplies. TO CURE A COLD IN ONE DAY.

According to accounts received here the blockade of Havana is pinching the in- habitants dreadfully. Nothing in the shape of supplies is entering the city, and the residents are gloomy and depressed. Or- ders have been issued by General Blanco prohibiting dealers from selling more than one day’s supplies to the same persons at one time. Fresh provisions are very scarce and meat is selling at 75 to 80 cents gold per pound. The lower classes of the people are suffer- ing greatly and the animals are perishing. “Nor EXACTLY RiIGHT.’—Theusands of people are in this condition they are not sick and yet they are by no means well.
