From time Immemorial, the Inv provement of harbors, building of wharves, and provision of the appur tenances, necessary to enable a port to engage in deep- water traffic, have been at the expense of a nation, a province, a city, or other community. Buch expenditure has been Incurred In but few cases and at few places by private corporations. In the con tinental countries of Europe even down to the present day this practice has undoubtedly been justifiable. Inas much as tbe seaports have often been the commercial metropolises, the en trepots for merchandise collected for export or Imported for distribution throughout a nation having compara tively Htt'e Interior commerce, de pending for Its prosperity in the main upon that moving by sea. This tradi tional practice obtains even In the United States, where the domestic traffic Is by far the more Important, with the result that the national gov ernment Is contlnua!y besieged to Im prove one port that It may more suc cessfully compete with another, which In turn makes demand upon the na tional treasury. Atlantic 'Monthly. Unhappy Americans. We modern Americans are the most unhappy people that have ever lived on the face of the earth, because we are the most prosperous people; we are the freest people; we are the most highly educated. Misery does not make people dissatisfied as much as prosperity. It is not those who re the most miserable nor those who lack the most of social or material wealth whose dissatisfaction over their condition breaks out Into revolutions for reform. Take the great revolutions of modern history, the French revolu tion or the civil war for example, and you will note that. the respective coun tries in which these agitations devel oped were not ripe for revolution until they had come to a certain degree of prosperity, which developed the idea of personal rights and liberties. The main reason why, In my Judgment, there will be no revolution in Russia for a long time to come Is the fact that the common people of that coun try are so miserable that they have been, and will be, unable to develop a dissatisfaction acute enough to break Into forcible resistance.

A furniture dealer In Paris Is show ing a novelty In the form of a bed, which Is an Improvement on a similar one which attracted attention at the Inst Paris exhibition. It Is to all ap pearances an ordinary bed, but the weight of the body upon It sets clock work In motion, thus operating a mu sic box which gives forth soothing melodies. The lullabies which it plays are supposed to Induce sleep. By moans of a dial at the head of the bed the person who occupies it fixes an alarm for the next morning. This produces, when the hour arrives, discordant sounds, to which the per son in bed must pay heed, because failure to rlso within five minutes af ter the noise haa begun, will cause the bottom of the bed to fall out.

If simple measures fall the following has been found very efficacious. The nerves that produce hiccough are near the surface in the neck.

By, a curious horticultural Irony the dahlia, which Is the popular idol of all otiv early autumn flower shows, has a dreadfully prosaic parentage. It has been developed from the Mexi can tubers, Introduced about 120 years ngo by the Swedish naturalist, Dr. Dahl, for the purely commercial purpose of supplanting or supple menting the potato, They did not "catch on," and the dahlia dish soon disappeared from the dinner tables, but the gardeners at once perceived the great value of the flower and pro ceeded to produce the double dahlia and other delightful blossoms. The tuber of the dahlia, however, Is still eaten In some parts of France. In diana Farmer. HINTS ON PRUNING. The Colorado experiment station has advanced correct Ideas about pruning as follows: 1. Prune to modify the vigor of the tree, giving It less top to support, allowing the sap to flow Into tbe re maining branches. 2. Prune to produce larger fruit than could be produced If the vltnl forces of the tree were divided among a greater number of branches. 3. Prune to give the trees do:.r able shape. 4. Prune In Biimmer to change the trees from wood-bearing to frutt-boar-InR. 6. If the tree bears too much fruit prune heavily in winter, so that the tendency will be to wood growth. 6. Prune to remove surplus pafts or Injured partB, or parts that Inter fere with each other. 7. Prune to facilitate spraying or harvesting. 8. Prune to facilitate tillage. In dianapolis News. NON-BEARING APPLE TREES. I have an apple orchard of 150 trees located In southern Indiana, Clark County, that has been planted twenty-four years. One-half of the treos have failed to bear fruit, or even bloom, while some of the trees have not failed to bear since four years oM. I have always cultivated the trees and fertilized them with cow manure, but have never sprayed. C. L. C. Ansjver: We will have to refer this query to friend Tho;. T. Newby, of Carthage, or some other experi enced orchard 1st. It Is a very Im portant subject, but one that we do not see discussed. You should tell us the varieties that do not bear. Sometimes trees fall to bear because they are too highly fertilized and grow limbs 'Instead of fruit. In such case the -roots should be pruned, or the bark scraped vigorously, to check wood growth and throw the sap Into fruit buds. But let us hear from friends Newby, Teas, Hobbs, Joe A. Burton and others, on the subject- Indiana Farcer. FOR SUCCESSION OF BLOOM. Flowers alone considered, the fol lowing selection of vines will produce consecutive bloom In the order named: Akebla, Wistaria, honeysuckle, hy brid Clematis, roses, trumpet flower, Clematis flammula, Clematis panicu lata and (adding ornamental berries) variegated leaved grape, bittersweet and matrimony vine. Close the pro cession with woodbine (Ampelopsis VIrginlana) for autumn foliage. For variety and real worth plant the Chinese trumpet flower. Its sal mon red flowers have large 'trum pets" and are more attractive. The foliage is more plentiful than that of the Wistaria, which It much resem bles, and they combine well. Another good combination is the scarlet bell Clematis and Clematis paniculata. Let them mingle. In closing let It be recognized these notes are suggestive rather than ex haustive. We have tried to -show that there Is no "cut-and-dried" se lection to be. followed, and that there are possibilities In a careful choice which will bring constant and varying Interests, rendering your pergola a perennial attraction In a degree equaling an old-f-sMoned garden.

A firm In Ohio hns invented a new kind of plow that will stir the soli to a depth" ot twelve or sixteen Inches without using any more power than is required to run an ordinary slx-teon-iuch plow six or seven Inches deep. This Arm claims that It has a principle involved in the construction ot its "tilling" machine which makes it possible to absolutely guarantee that this can be done. If such Is the case there ought to be a broad outlet for this Implement, because farmers generally are coming to believe that It pays to stir the land to a good depth, especially In the fall.

Make a spool In the centre of It from two crosses with holes bored In them as seen In Fig. 1. In sert them on the stick, nail firmly and brace with four sticks crosswise. Take off the cultivator wheels and fit them on the ends of the stick, leav ing one end protrude through the hub about six Inches, which Is for the crank. Then afllx a five-foot pole on each side ot the spool by means of a hoop Iron band to the main stick. Make a groove for each band to pre vent It slipping sldewlse, and place them far enough from the spool to permit It to turn freely. Brace the poles in. the manner shown In Fig. 2. To operate this, one man steers It along the wire while another turns the crank. Frank Laclna, Canby, Minn. DETERIORATION IN WHEATS. The Investigations of the causes of the deterioration of wheat, conducted by the Bureau of Plant Industry at the Department of Agriculture, in co operation with the Bureau of Chemis try, have developed the cause sb be ing too wet conditions and therefore one which can be In some degree remedied by farmers. It wrb pre viously suspected that the softening of the grain and the over-production of starch, producing white spots and "yellow berry," were due generally to unusually wet weather or In Irri gated districts were caused by the ap plication of too much water. In a number ot Instances two samples ot the sanie variety of wheat have been received by the Department, tbe one showing very soft or light-colored grains and the other the usual flinty grain, the only difference In condi tions being that the former had been affected by a much greater amount ot water than the latter. Numerous ex periments have been conducted tn which different amounts of water were applied at different intervals, the results confirming these observa tions. BROOD MARES AND ALFALFA. Joseph E. Wing, In reply to an In quiry about feeding brood mares al falfa hay says in the Breeders' Ga zette that there 1b no danger. Here Is the inquiry and answer: "Is there any danger of brood mares losing their colts by feeding alfalfa hay with corn alone for the grain ration? I am told by a neigh bor of mine thai there is danger." Thousands of brood mares have for their almost sole ration alfalfa hay. Alfalfa hay and corn form nearly a balance., ration In themselves. - Do not overdo the matter, but feed alfal fa In limited supply. If the mares are given dally no more than one pound of alfalfa hay for each 100 pounds ot their own weight the hay will do them no harm but only good. If they require a little more roughness than that, make it up by feeding bright corn' fodder or prairie bay. Do not overfeed with corn either; a moder ate corn ration Inclining to smallneBS will give beat results. Pregnant mares ought to have am ple chance for exercise and should come to foaling time well nourished, strong and not too fat. Then they will have safe delivery and syckle their colts well.
