SPRAYING SPLENDID WAY WAY TO DESTROY WEEDS KxHTiuii:iits have been carried or in tli? Kii.it in spraying for the de Mtriii't(in i,t weeds. In the case of some weeds it I) its; befneotadn nth some weeds it bus been found that certain chemical destrov them while nut injuring other vegetation. ' Who originated the idea it is un iible to Mute, but Koine vears iibo it was in'eirlently discovered in France that a himiv of sulnhato of Conner (blue vitrol) would destroy wild mus tard aiid charlock in wheat without damaging the grain. The North Da kota experiment station has been ex perimenting for some time along these lines and with great success. A ten pel; cent solution of blue vilrol was sprpuyed on a very weedy plat of wheat with the result that most of the weeds were killed, while the grain suffered little from the application. Among the chemicals used are suit, sulphute of copper, kerosinc, carbolic acid, arsenic and sal soda, and arse nide of soda. Some plunis are more susceptible to sprays than others, for many are protected by scales,, hairs or a waxy secretion thnt tho spray will not penetrate, but it has been found that a very large part of the worst weeds can be destroyed by this simple process without damage to the grain. How it would net in re lation to other field crops is yet to bo determined b vexscriment. Dinger In Ey Poulticm. Do sot poultice an eye to any cir cumstances whatever.

Count Bcrtrand, who lived in Paris, was a very eccentric man, and to one of his eccentricities ho ascribed his long life. Once a year he would be tako himself to bed and stay there for three months. On these occasions he wonld see no one but his servant, who brought him bis meals, and even him he forbade to speak. Just before the Germans began the siege of Paris the count went to bed, and the servant, true to his Injunctions, said nothing of the events going on aronnd him. One day the bread proved so bad the count demanded an explanation, whereby, of course, he learned that Paris was en compassed by the enemy. Springing out of bed, the count paced the floor, repeating, "What should a Bertrand do nnder such circumstances?" Sud denly be stopped, exclaiming, "We should go to bed!" and to bed be went and stayed there until the siege was over. old railroad contractor, thinks that central Oregon offers tho greatcsc opportunity fur a new railroad of any section in the country. "Oregon is mi immense state and destined to witness an era of devel opment that will put it in the lead of western states," said Mr. Rogers. "The natural wealth and resources are not comprehended until one trav els through the sparsely settled inter rior. It will not be long until a rail road, perhaps two, tap central Ore gon, and then development will pro ceed rapidly." Willi Objects. Among tbe representatives in con gress is one whose lack of personal comeliness is the basis of personal banter from bis facetiously inclined colleagues. "Why, Willie," said one of them to tho four-year-old son of the congress man, "how much you resemble your father!" "Yes, sir," responded WUlie, with an air of resignation. "Everybody says that, but I don't think I deserve it.' Lipplncott's Magazine. ' Getting a Start. "Did you secure tickets for the play, hubby?" inquired the New York wife. "I hear they are in demand."
