A rancher rode past, says the Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph. "Say, friend," called out one of the men, "how far is it to the next town?" "Oh, a matter of two miles or so, 1 reckon," called back the rancher. Another hour dragged by, and another rancher was encountered. "How far is it to the next town?" the men asked him eagerly. "Oh, a good two miles." A weary half hour longer of marching and then a third rancher. "Hey, how far's the next town?" "Not far," was the encouraging answer. "Only about two miles."

This popular flower needs no description. It is the most admired of all our fall blossoms. There is scarcely a town of any pretention that does not have during November, its chrysanthemum show. Some readers may wonder why I devote so much space in April to a fall flower, but April and early May are the months to start these bowers in order to have them flower in November. If you have no old plants from which to procure cuttings, purchase some young plants from your norist? ask for the smallest plants, which will now be started in thumb pots and retall for about 5 or 10 cents. These plants will be selected from choice stock, and with proper care, should develop into really fine specimens. More progress has been made in the culture of the chrysanthemum in late years than of any other plant. Only a few years ago the largest chrysanthemum in the market measured perhaps four inches across, more often three. These flowers were only partially double. That is, the outer layer of petals was double and the centre of the flower thin and flat. Now the flowers are double to the centre and measure at least ten and often twelve inches in diameter. Such large flowered varieties, while beautiful for conservatories, are quite hardy enough to stand our severe winters even, if well protected. It is very interesting to raise these. There are two methods. The first and onsipst is to grow them in the flower border; all that is necessary is to start them in some sunny portion of the garden, keep them well watered all summer, and at the earliest approach of frost to lift and pot them. While this is an easy way, there is a better one. Commence with small cuttings which must be started in tiny pots (thumb size) in April; when the weather becomes settled, sink the pot in the open ground, where it can remain until lifting time in the fall. To produce choice specimens in the fall you must commence with small stock at this time. After the cuttings are fairly well started, pinch the tops off; this must be done to cause the plant to branch. Keep them very wet?never for even 24 hours allow them to suffer for want of moisture. After they have been planted only a few days they will "break," as the florists say?that is, they will throw out side shoots; then they require to be placed in larger pots, for they will marn runt rnom After these first shoots are about six inches long, it is necessary to pinch the end out of each one, which will again cause them to branch. Keep up this process of pinching as the plants grow until the 10th of August. After that date never touch them, as they will need the remainder of the season for setting their buds and developing their flowers. The object is to develop good, strong young roots first, then vigorous foliage and straight, firm stems, and just as many to each plant as possible. Each stem, you know, means a flower. Through the summer season keep them in the sun. The shade of trees or even that of a fence or building of any kind has a tendency fo draw them up, which means that they will have long shoots; too often the result is that only two or three shoots will produce any flowers and these but indifferent specimens. Chrysanthemums do best in a soil composed of good garden loam, sand and plenty of well-rotten cow manure. Never place them near enough together to crowd the plants, but always plant them so they will have an abundance of air and sun all around them. They will stand almost any amount of manure. After having pinched them back for the last time, begin to administer stimulation in the form of manure water. Chicken manure is preferred by the largest growers. To make the proper solution use four quarts of chicken manure to five gallons of water. Apply this mixture every other day, using clear water in the intervening days. To keep them growing, water them every day; continue administering the manure water until they commence to unfold their flowers. As the plants grow be careful to tie them out so as to give each shoot an nrmnrHinitv t < i develnn. To secure extra large (lowers you wil have to resort to the process of disbudding, which is a simple matter. YVatc h the growth of the plants and when the buds first appear you will lattice quite a cluster on the end of each shoot. You must now carefully snap off every bud but one on each shoot: let the remaining bud be the strongest looking one. A plant with six shoots instead of having six clusters of small flowers will, if this process is followed, develop six flowers, each true in color and perfect in shape. After the flowers begin to show color. use only plain water. Should you continue with the manure water at this time the flowers would be 'soft," which means that they would have a tendency to droop. On the approach of frost they must be lifted, the pots cleaned and the plants taken into some sunny, airy place in the house. It is quite difficult to describe the varieties now grown. There are hun dreds of kinds; every catalogue you receive has a new list of seedlings and all of them are prize lots. Many of them are quite meritorious, but. is long lists only lead to confusion. I will enumerate only a few of the best of each color generally so accepted at :he present time. The following are good, hardy garden sorts that stand the winter with protection: "Souce de < >r"?old gold color. "Ivory"?pure white. "Temple of Solomon"?early yellow. "Mr. Freeman"?early pink. "Mrs. J. ('. Gardener"?deep pink. The list below are the best now grown for tine blooms and must be llowered in the house. "Clementine Touset"?early white. "Keith I,uxford"?wine red. "Mrs. Arnold"?white. ".Mi's. .m. nansey ?a iiaiiu.-siuiu* iii ?pink. "Mrs. O. H. Khan"?a lovely bronze. "C'hrysolara"?beautiful early yellow. "Dolly Dimple"--larue. late yellow. Tnaka"?best early pink. "William Turner"?ball shaped, white. Chrysanthemums are like many of our most attractive plants, subject to insect pests. You must be on the mitinnk for these Dests in order to combat them before they do any real damage. About the middle of July they are often attacked by small bluck Hies that, before you are aware of it. almost cover the plants. They can easily be washed off with a strong spray of water, applied either with the aid of the garden hose or syringe. Of course they will return. Large growers resort to tobacco dust, which is sprinkled on the plants In generous portions while the foliage is still damp. Another pest that attacks these plants with the cool nights in early fall is what is known as "leaf spot." That is a fungus and if not checked at once will permanently injure the health of the plant. As soon as you | see the first signs of it, carefully pick j off each leaf affected, to prevent the | spread of the disease, then sprinkle the young plant with flower of sulphur.?Jane Leslie Kellt, in Philadelphia Public Ledger. TAKING OF ANTWERP German Big Guns Wrought Terrible Havoc. On his arrival in Antwerp, the Associated Press correspondent found the city guarded by bluejackets and marine infantrymen from the German stations at Kiel, Kuxhaven and Wil- j helmshaven. t Detachments of sailors among them, , recruited from the German merchant j marine, were armed only with cut- i lasses and revolvers. They lay sever- , al weeks behind the army, taking no part in the fighting and evidently are destined for sea duty after the capture of a port. German staff officers assured the correspondent that the German commander, General von Beseler, had found easy victory in his campaign where hard fighting was expected and desperate resistance where little trouble had been anticipated. The officers said Antwerp had fallen eight days earlier than expected, the Belgians evidently being disheartened by their nine weeks' defeat and also because of the easy manner in which the positions behind the river Neithe was carried, October 6 and 7. As the correspondent drove through miles of the streets of Antwerp, the city seemed to have suffered less than had been believed. Indications of damage wrought by the German shells were observed in all quarters but the destruction usually was confined to individual houses at widely scattered points. At German headquarters it was said this fact was due to the definite plan of the Germans to convince * ? ? n minimum c\f flnmflPP % .-tlliwnp M1UI a uiiuiiMui.t w , that further resistance was useless. ( The heavy 12 and 16 inch guns, it y was stated, were not used against the i city proper, but shells from the small- ( er mortars were dropped throughout the place, a few in each section until ( every quarter had been systematically i visited. i How accurately the public build- ; ings were avoided seemed to have j been proven by a shell hole in the pavement at the side entrance to the > city hall and in the destruction of a | house across the street from that 1 building. The church of Our Lady, j the pride of Antwerp, has a hole eight or ten feet in diameter in one ( transept window, and in an adjoining | wall 30 feet above the floor. Other- < wise the edifice was not damaged. j The artillery used by the Germans before Antwerp was stronger than was generally known. In addition to their widely heralded 16-inch mortars and a large number of 12-lnch siege guns, they had two Austrian automobile batteries of 12 guns. The effect of the big guns on Antwerp's outer fortifications was more striking than at Liege. Two armored turrets at Fort de Waver-St. Catherine were put out of action with a single shot, their steel beds being UrUKflJ 111 IIVU <IIIU mc lira? J uiasara ( of metal hurled five or six yards | away. In another fort the concrete embankment was pierced and the < steel turret uprooted. t German staff officers say that when | the river Neithe was crossed the Bel- s gian defense virtually collapsed. The Belgians abandoned their heavy ar- { tillery and machine guns while the , Germans entrenched themselves, ex- j pectin? a counter attack. t The officers declare that after 80 ( German shells had been dropped in { various quarters of Antwerp, the > white flag appeared on forts six and seven on the inner girdle of forti- j fications. The burgomaster of the city then came out and offered to ( surrender Antwerp but was told that i the terms of capitulation could be . arranged only with the Belgian mili- < tray authorities. The burgomaster's plea that these officers could not be , found led to an order for a suspen- t sion of the attack. i The German troops then pushed in e thrmiph tho irirdle of inner nosts and r past the undefended city hall, find- r ing that the retiring garrison had , blown up the bridge across the river t Schedlt, and also had Interposed a belt of flames against the invaders { by firing the oil tanks and covering t the surface of the river with burn- j ing oil. s Antwerp Is a dead city. The popula- t tion has fled and the streets are deserted. WELL DONE SAYS WILSON ^ President Wilson Writes Mr. Underwood Letter About Congress. President Wilson made public on s last Monday, a letter to Majority i Leader Underwood of the house, in I which he reviewed the achievements t of his administration, outlined the iiriiernmmc for the next session of i< congress, and declared "the Denin- t cralic party is now in fact the only t instrument ready to the country's f hand by which anything can be ac- ;i com plished." s The president wrote the letter as t an endorsement of all Democratic f members of congress in lieu of | speeches he said he would like to v make in every congressional district, g He predicted victory for his party in the elections because "cveiy thoughtful man sees that a change of parties s just now would set the clock back, not r forward," and because "a practical < nation is not likely to reject such a n team, full of the spirit of public ser- y vice, and substitute, in the midst of n great tasks, either it party upon which 11 it deep demoralization has fallen, or a f party which hits not grown to a stilt- t ure that would warrant its assuming p the responsible burdens of state." a The legislative programme begun a KING VICTOR EMMANUEL H J My '^Mmf/ King Victor Emmanuel of Italy, It 1b )elieved, would like to help the allies igainst Germany, and especially igainst Austria, and the popular denand for the adoption of such a course ias been insistent in Itlay. luring the present congress was dedared by the president to have been >egun "to destroy private control and et business free." He said that the >eople of the country had been served >y this congress as "they have never >een served before." Outlining the work already accomdishcd, Mr. Wilson mentioned the eform of the tariff, the passage of Vio nnn' nurrannv Kill thn n n H _trI1?t >ills, and the handling of foreign >roblems. He said he doubted if "there has ever been a finer exhibiion of teamwork or of unhesitating levotion to the fulfillment of party Hedges." Praising the new tariff bill, the >resident asserted that "private conrol had shown its sinster face on evry hand in America, had shown it for i long time, and sometimes very >razenly, in the trusts, and in the irtuai domination of credit by small troups of men." He said that high >rices did not spring directly from the ariff, but out of the suppression of ompetition which flourished more >asily under the protection of a high ariff. He declared that the panic vhich opponents of the new bill prelicted, had not come, and that deipite the European war, there had loon uuttiflonl fimn tn nrnVP thp sue ess of the act. The trade commission bill and the Clayton anti-trust bill were spoken of is designed "to make men in a small ,vay of business as free to succeed is men in a big way, and to kill nonopoly in the seed." He added that 'monopolies are built up by unfair nethods of competition," which would >e eliminated by the new legislation. 'Monopoly is to be cut off at the "oots," he declared. "If our party were to be called upjn to name the particular point of principle in which It differs from its jpponents most sharply and in which t feels itself most definitely sustained jy the experience," continued the president, "we should no doubt say :hat it was this: That we would have no dealings with monopoly but reject t altogether: while our opponents tvere ready to adopt it into the realm jf law. and seek merely to regulate it xnd moderate it in its operation. It s our purpose to destroy monopoly md maintain competition as the only ffectual instrument of business lib?rty." Justice has been done the laborer, declared the president, and his labor s no longer to be treated as if it 'were merely an innimate object of commerce disconnected from the foriitmc* a rwl hannin^iiQ nf a livinc hnmnn aping, to be dealt with as an object of sale or barter." Of the currency bill, Mr. Wilson said "we have created a democracy jf credit such as has never existed n this country before." He declared hat "credit is now at the disposal of very man who can show energy and issets," and because control of the system rested with the government, it is self-government as well as denocracy." It was impossible to complete rural redit legislation, the letter added, jut the Federal reserve act Itself 'facilitates and enlarges agricultural redit to an extraordinary degree." Speaking of the programme for the text session of congress, the presilent mentioned legislation for buildng up the American merchant marine ind the "completion of a great pro tramme for the conservation of our latural resources and the developnent of the water power of the counry" "Without a congress in close sym>athy with the administration," said he president, "a whole scheme of >eace and honor and disinterested ervice to the world cannot be brought o its full realization." BARBED WIRE IN WAR rerrible Entanglements Difficult to Deal With. A New York journal of recent date ays that the Russian military auhorities are ttying to place in the 'nited States an order for live i housand tons of barbed wire. They have every reason to be satsfied with the use made of this maerial at Port Arthur. Their en- j anglenients there were of the most J ormidable character, and consisted, s a rule, of four parallel lines of 3trand fetices. ten feet apart, with hree more strands running back and orth in zigzags from line to line. * 'etween these barriers, quantities of kire had been thrown loose on the , round in big snarls to entangle the ; eot and legs. ' (letting through or over these oh- | tacles. under heavy rille and shrap- 1 iel tire, proved to be almost iinpos- ' ible. The Japanese first tried our ' net hod in Cuba, by equipping their , forming parties with wire-cutting ippers. This scheme failed. The 1 nen were all killed or disabled be- j ore they got half way through. Then ( hey organized volunteer "sure death turtles," and sent them, one after 1 nother. to clear the way before the ssault began. A Japanese captain | would assemble his company and say to them: "I want volunteers for a 'sure death party' to cut barbed wire entanglements. Every man who goes must expect to die. It will be his duty to cut wire until he does die. Don't imagine that any of you are ever coming back. The enemy doesn't let us pick up our wounded, and nobody will come back. But through the opening that you will make in those fences before you die your comrades will storm the fort. Who will go?" The whole company would volunteer. This proved to be too costly in life. Xext they tried equipping the storm ing party with mattresses which when thrown on the barriers, enabled the troops to scramble over without getting caught in the barbs. This also was unsatisfactory, because the men got hopelessly tangled up In the loose snarls between the lines. Finally, when the slopes In front of the forts were covered with the bodies of their dead, they began sending up at night long lines of men with trailing ropes tied around their waists. When a Russian searchlight was turned on that part of the field the crowling men lay still, and could not be distinguished from the hundreds of other bodies that were still forever. When the beam moved on. they crawled a few yards upward. Moving in the intervals of darkness, they finally reached the fences, made the ropes fast to the posts, and wriggled back to shelter. A hundred men or more then hauled on the ropes and pulled a whole section of the barrier down into the front parallel. Thus an end was put at last to the terror of the barbed-wire entanglement. This form of obstacle has already been used by both Russians and Germans in the present war, and there is no doubt that in places where it can be adequately protected by rifle, shrapnel, or machine gun fire, it presents an almost Insurity, although it may be smashed by well-placed artillery.?The Outlook.
