A SPIDER'S WEB TRELLIS.
A trellis like the ono in the cut, which
is formed in the resemblance of a gigantic
pider's web, can easily be constructed
with hammer and wire cutter by
the use of a few small staples and wire,
such as can b
n e found
At any - l 'll'dw'tit '
,, o
store. Galvanized wire seems the best.
A. little study of any natural web will
give the principles of construction. The
form seems favorable for the growth of
'tines, and it is a relief from the muuotuny
of perpendicular wires. Of course, when
covered with clustering vines the shape is
lost, but that dues not come about in a
day, gnu rarely in a season, and it gives
an interest to the place when hare. 111

(Aristnlochin sypha), and the w'eb was
being covered \with the feathery foliage of
the cypress vine.

PLAN OF DURABLE STACK BO'rrolr.

made of cast iron. Southern Cultivator,
while admitting that, durability and
strength considered, this is probably the
cheapest and best material that can be

Prize Article on Wheat Growing.
The prize article on wheat growing in a
recent issue of Farm Journal was written
by John M. Stahl, of Quincy, Ills. As it
contains much solid matter in small space,
every line of which is instructive, it is
here reproduced for the benefit of our
readers.
The best soil for wheat is magitesian
limestone, or a limestone clay; but it can
be profitably grown on nearly every fertile,
drained soil. On soils lacking in silica
the straw lodges; lacking in lin-te, the
berry is not plump. Growing wheat on
undrained laud is foolishness. If not
drained naturally, drain the land artifici-
ally. Earth does not expand in freezing;
water does. If the surface soli is filled
with water during the winter and spring
its freezing and thawing will heave out
the young plants; if the soil is drained the
,caving will be much less. Drained soil
retains the most moisture in midsummer
also.
Plow ]ow car] y• early -as , very y as soon as you
can get the preceding crop off the land.
Get to work in July at least, The ground
will be harder in August, and Wheat, un-
like corn, does best on a "seasoned" seed
bed. Follows close with the harrow and
roll at once. This will crush the clods
while they are soft and retain the moisture
In the ground; otherwise the clods will
r•
harden and the gleans dry out. Wheat
requires a rather shallow, compact seed
bed. A compact seed bed is not a hard,
yet a solid one. It is rondo by bringing
. the particles of fine ground close together.
Hence after the ground is plowed put on
it all the work with harrow, roller and
drag that yon possibly can. No n•••iger
of too much work being put on. •
The hest manure for'wheat is clover
_sot,; next, stable mania• -spread soon
after plowing; then the work of 110111,4 the
soil wvill nits it with the tipper stratum of
the soil, the proper sitnatinn for wheat.

Fine surface, and drill the grain.
Test at least one new variety each year.
Chaugo your seed every three years.
Cut early. By so doing you avoid
storms and shattering, the straw is more
valuable, the sheaves stand better in the

while it will weigh practically as much.
Put the best hands at shocking. Ten

The Destructive Chinch
As the chinch bug has wrought ,,incl,
damage to the grain crops in most of the
western states and in portions of Mary-
land and Virginia, attention ---is .called to
some of the more popular remedies or pre-
ventives; also to the natural agencies
which assist in the destruction of this
pest.
Numbered with attiflcial remedies
which have proven most effective are the
following:
The plan of sowing grain so early in
the spring as to get in advance of their
depredations.
The attempt to save a ptirt of the crops
by preventing the migration of the bugs
from one field to another. °
The method of destroying the insects by
burning • cornstalks and other rubbish. in
wvhieh tite chinch bugs are supposed to
hibernate.
The prevention of the bags breeding to
any serious extent by abstaining from the
cultivation of those grains upon which
they chiefly subsist.
While this little pest is not pursued by
such relentless foes as those that wage
war on the army worn, and plant lice,
still it has its enemies: Professor Riley

ENJOYING THEMSELVES AT NEW

Their More Fashionable Sisters --Rad
Feet Almost Universal..A Little Shoji
Girl's Antics -A Quarrel.
In the period of excessive heat, which has
killed off children by the damn, melted the
courage of the bravest, wilted the enthusiasm
of the most energetic and driven lueu to
blowing out their alleged brains froth mere
discomfort, the city's free baths havo Leen
the best patronized institutions in town.
It has lain in the ]hie of my duty and pleas-
ure to see several of them the past week and
the bight has been one of considerable inter-
est. For ones thing I have learned that
physically the workleg girl compares very
favorably with her luckier sisters who kick
up thei.i aristocratic little heels in the surf
that tumbles upon expensive and fashionable
beaches. This is not apparent at first, be-
cause when the working girl comes stepping
out of the dressing room ready for the bath
her smooth outlines are not defined by the
trim snugness of Jersey cloth and• silk hose
cut to artfully display while pretending to
conceal feminine symmetry. No; she usually
wears some dingy old flannel bag rented from
the attendant and too big for her, or else a
cast off garment of her own almost too
shrunken and tattered for decency.
Some queer combinations one sees. Ono
red haired girl, whose bare ankles were white
as taint, had on as a bathing garment a
frayed red flannel petticoat and an old silk
bisque. Another wore what had once been
a blue nun's veiling wrapper, which was - ell
the bettor for a bath. A third was still there
unique and original in a calico Mother Iiu-Ti:
bard for a tonic and her younger brother's
trousers. Tho effect of this last was stun-
ning, and the wearer of it paddled about in
the 0001 salt water with the lofty expression
of one who had surmounted the stern barriers
of untoward circumstance by the Wright of
their own unaided intellect. Some of the
girls, however', tai; afford cheap but pretty
batltingsuits, and these are usually the ones
d who swim and cannot afford to have their
movements hampered. with clinging gar-
ments, lliany of them swim uncomnionly

Educating the Chinese.
Tito Chinese government, under the liberal-
izing influence of the new regime of the
young emperor, has adopted a curious and
significant scheme of getting at the bottom'
farts about civilisation outside the flowery,
empire. A dozen distinguished youug scholars
will be selected from competitive examina-
tion, in which the chief test will be ability t 1)
describe and apprehend -ire meaning of 'was !
things, and they will be sent abroad for r t ,:
years to study foreign countries. Each v. ; .1
get a salary of $250 a month and $50 for 11
interpreter, and all their traveling expenses.
Each will follow a particular bent in warn-
ing up things heknows the most about,
Monthly reports on topography, ethnology,
commerce, habits, morality, industries, arma-
ments, political institutions, etc., will be toe -
warded to Pekin, At the end of two years
the services of each will be utilized in the
Chinese.gow•ernment in such departments ,:s
he studied to the most advantage, and thcat.
who have done best will get ennobled. When
one considers some of the raw, untutored nr.,l
indifferent officials that America s"n,!,;
abroad, there rises just a scintilla of dnn;;t
whether the Occident really monopolizes all
the civilization of the world. -Oa lenge
