When examined, j the water glass was found to be the : best pickle, although the lime and salt j served its purpose very well; still the I whites of the eggs preserved in this 1 mixture were much more watery than the whites of these preserved in the water glass. These were.difficult to dis tinguish from fresh eggs, since (he white was quite firm and yolk stood up upon it as though fresh.

Twentieth Century Farmer, from ; whose illustrated article the following ; is gleaned: The tradesman could not have made this display had not the grower pre pared the vegetables at borne- before starting for market. The day when the gardener could pick, pull or dig a lot of vegetables and dump them in a lot of gunnysacks all covered with their native dirt has passed away, let us hope never to return. The gather ing and preparing vegetables for mar ket has become one cf the useful arts. Much of this labor is of the nature of recreation rather than of severe toil and can be done by the women and children cf the household to the health and profit of all concerned. The sale of vegetables in bunches and baskets is growing in favor. Al most all beets are now sold in bunches. The first crop of onions reaches us in this form. A large lot of early turnips, also carrots, are bunched. Snap beans and tomatoes are now sold in half bushel market baskets. The vegeta bles can be made much more attractive in these packages, and a buyer will fre quently take an original package. All this, with putting cabbage and cantaloupes in crates, has added large ly to the labor in the vegetable garden, and gardeners have provided them selves with facilities and conveniences to meet these new conditions. They have vegetable houses in which are benches, where they put the vegeta bles: sinks aud tubs, in which are wa ter pipes, with faucets. The pipes are filled from a tank into which tho water has been pumped by a windmill. The vegetables are washed by the women of tlie place, who pick off the imperfect leaves and count the vegetables into bunches, which they tie with strings. The women also give the final touch to the arrangement of the peas, beans, tomatoes and such truck as are sold in baskets. Cucumbers', peppers, summer squash, lima beans, eggplant and okra look best in baskets. Turnips, parsnips, late carrots, with late beets, should be washed when sold in bulk. Sweet corn is so cheap it will not pay for a package. Early sweet potatoes sell best in one-third bushel crates. Later they are best in bushel baskets and barrels. Irish potatoes are put in sacks or barrels. Winter squash and pumpkins are han dled in bulk; tlie same with watermel ons and late cabbage. Celery is trimmed, counted and tied, a dozen plants in a bunch, these bunch- seem almost as good as tlie fresli eggs it will certainly be willing to pay a price which will leave a good cash mar gin in favor of pickling. Water glass, or sodium silicate, is a liquid of rather a smooth, slippery consistency, readily soluble in water. It may be obtained through any druggist at a cost of about To cents a gallon. In using it we would advise tlie use of stone jars or crocks. The water used should he quite pure, and if not it must be boiled. Tbe jar should be covered to exclude any dirt and kept at tbe temperature of a c-ool cellar. Sometimes tbe specific gravity they are now strong enough to close the Suez route to the east and thus to throw out of service a quarter of the sea power of their rivals. In five years they expect to have the coasts and ports of England aud Germany at their mercy. They hope to be able to para lyze tbe commerce and the fleets of the kaiser and the king. France has been quietly, persistently, secretly developing a line of naval power which other nations have for tlie most part neglected, and now the naval experts of the world are fast awakening to a realization of the grim of the solution is greater than that of truth. Success has crowned tlie efforts the eggs, in which case the tendency will be for them to float, when they may be forced down by a plate or sim ilar arrangement with a weight on top. —Bulletin 20, Montana Agricultural Ex periment Station, Bozeman.

The work the Fair Association iu improving tbe grounds aud buildings has been practically finished aud now it only remains to put on the finishing touches. This will take only a short while. Meanwhile the various build ings in which exhibits will be shown have been opened to exhibitors and al ready work nas been begun by some of those who will have tiie most elaborate displays.

Respectfully, SULLIVAN BROS. of tbe French. They have at last pass ed tbe experimental stage. They are now ready for the war under the wa ters. They have weapons, secret, un seen, terrible. They are ready to dart out at any moment for the destruction of their enemy. Other nations have lagged behind, and if France is not to be permitted to become the first of naval powers her rivals must rapidly bestir themselves in the submarine field. While the French have been develop ing their submarine engine of war through a long series of experiments the naval attaches of other nations stationed here have exerted themselves to the utmost to gain information con cerning the new destroyers. They have learned little. Never was a secret bet ter guarded. As to the details of the method by which the problem has been solved they know nothing at all. The experts are as much in the dark any layman. All the naval attaches in Paris are sending to the governments alarming reports concerning the French subma rines. One of these experts says: “France now has finished or nearly ready to gc into commission seven submarine tor pedo boats of the new t_>pe, Gustav Zede model. Nineteen more are under construction. These boats are un known quantities—that is, they are un known to the naval authorities of the countries which may be compelled to meet them in war. “What is inside the hulls of these boats we do not know, and there is no use of our pretending that we do. But we are pretty, well satisfied as to the performances that may be expected of them in case of war. “For instance, let us suppose war between France and Great Britain. The English hold Gibraltar, and with that and tlieir fleets they think them selves masters, of the Mediterranean and the Suez route between the east and the west. But what Is Gibraltar lu comparison with a fleet of subma rine torpedoes? If an English squad ron attempted to pass the straits, the little cigar shaped explosive terrors would dart out locate the big hulks of the enemy in the narrow water while remaining unseen themselves. Then they would discharge their torpedoes, and one great ship after another would go up In shock, smoko and destruction. It is doubtful if of a squadron of a dozen ships one-half could get through the straits. The guns of Gibraltar might just as well be in the hands of the enemy for all the help they could render against these destroyers, which approach so stealthily under the sur face that their presence is made known only by the death dealing explosion. “I believe the naval battles of the future, ships against ships, will be fought under the water, not upon it. Already the French engineers, encour aged by their success, dream of build ing submarines which shall be more than mere torpedo boats—underwater cruisers, in fact. Already they are building 26 submarines of tbe Gustav Zede type. They talk of building 200 more during the next half dozen years. Unless they are deceiving themselves they have revolutionized naval tac tics.” battalion. They marched into the church. The officer iu charge took his place in the front pew, setiled himself in his seat aud calmly blew his nose. Three huudred noses were blown si multaneously with a vehemence that was startling. The officer looked around and blushed violently iu great surprise. Three hundred heads “followed the mo tions of the commanding officer.” Six hundred cheeks violently tried to blush, a hard thing to for a midshipman to do, | and so on through the service. | The man could not stir without in- i staut imitation. lie finally confined | himself strictly to the prescribed rit- j ual of the service, looking neither to j the right nor to the left, not daring to j raise a finger or breathe out of the or dinary course. This enterprise also was a startling success. The cadets received other instructions later in the day from a furious officer who sternly resented tlieir innocent statenfents that they did not know which was ritual and which was not and that he had not instructed them that blowing bis nose stood on a differ ent plane from saying his prayers. It was a huge joke everywhere. Perfect Passenger Service. BEE AND HIVE. If the hive rests on the ground, it will be too damp. It will pay to use foundations by fill ing all frames full. Set the hive a little above the ground to' admit of a circulation of air. From 9 o’clock a. m. to 3 o’clock p. m. includes tbe hours of successful operat ing with bees. Procure new blood in the apiary. In- breeding is as objectionable with bees as with live stoek. It is necessary to unite all weak col onies that will be unable to build up into strong stocks. Care should be taken to save all young brood and the brood combs of those containing brood. On account of it being the only ma terial that can be depended upon to stay pine is the best material for hives. Combs should not be left in empty hives about tbe apiary. That is tbe worst place they can be left, as moths are always to be found near the bees and are sure to infest the combs. One advantage in closed end frames Is that a hive full of combs may be handled as though it were a single piece instead of a collection of loose pieces, thus saving work, worry and time. If the bees cannot conveniently enter the hives during the sudden changes of cool weather, quite a number will be lost; hence care should be taken to have the entrances arranged so that the bees can enter readily.

In the barks of our forest trees are contained a multitude of latent buds, which are developed and grow under certain favorable conditions. Some trees possess this property in a remark able degree, and often, when the other parts are killed down by frost, tlie property of pushing out these latent buds into growth preserves the life of the plant. These buds, having once begun to grow, adhere to the woody layer at .their base and push out their points through the back toward the light. The buds then unfold and develop leaves, which elaborate the sap carried up the small shoot. Once elaborated it descends by the hark, when it reaches the base or inner hark. Here it is ar rested, so to speak, and deposited be tween the outside and inner layer of bark, as can be learned on examining specimens on the trees in the woods almost anywhere.
