This picture shows what happened to the steel "wreck-proof care" used on the sub way in New York City. The smash up occurred at a point where tho trains leave subway and travel overhead. The cars were smashed in the manner illustrated and then fired by contact with the third rail. One o the bars balanced on the high tressel like a scales and it was astonishing that it did not topple to the street below, carrying with it many passengers.

Farmers of Wayne county art taking a greater Interest in entomology and ornothology than ever before, because they realize they must closely study the relationship of the bird and insects with growing crops, if the Kreatest success is acquired. This is one of the many points that will be presented to the Indiana Horticultural Kooiety at its meeting Wednesday, by Walter S. Ratliff, secretary of the locul Vortieultural society. Mr. Ratliff will probably be the only Wayne county representative. His report from the local association, to that of the stat..; 1b rery interesting, and follows: Report of the Wayne County Agricultural and Horticultural society, by Walter S. Ratliff. secretary. To the Indiana Horticultural society. "Herewith, I submit this my annual report to your society of the Wayne County Agricultural and Horticultural society, together with tho roster of Its officers for the year J IX 7. Aside from the meetings in the society's room in the county court house, during the winter months, the sessions were held ;t the residences of some of its members, where well-flilled baskets were tak?n

and the day was spent inspecting the I orchards, plantations and home surroundings of the host. : "In February, as usual, the annual ! dinner was partaken of by at least one hundred and fifty members and their friends. At this dinner, the women folks friendly vie with one another in j the preparation of such delicacies as they desire to take, and take much Dleasure in commenting on the good qualities of these articles as they are I placed on the dining room tables. "During the year, a number of good addresses were given by speakers previously selected, on topics of interest, such as history, literature, agriculture horticulture, travels- and reminiscences which are subsequently offered for publication In our county newspapers. Officers for 1007 are President, Isaac G. Dougan; vice president, Wal lace C. Reynolds; recording secretary. I Hon. Walter Ratliff; treasurer, T. ii. I Caleb W. King. Fruits Disappointment was general ' in this locality, owing to the partial failure in the fruit yield, owing doubtless to the late freezes and cold rawwinds following. All varieties were apparently in the best of condition. which, with an abundance of healthy! bloom, gave evidence of a bountiful crop, but the results were anything but j satisfactory.

Duchess varieties bore any fruit, while, Flemish Beauty, Sheldon, Seckel, Law-j rence and Bartlett pears were seen In j most every orchard. Pear blight was comparatively unknown in this locality this year, and the trees made an excellent growth. Plums Scarcely an individual tree yielded any plums this year, for all the bloom was most profuse, due, perhaps, as stated above, to climatic conditions in early spring. Cherries An almost total failure, even with the sweet cherries that are so often the sorts most desired. Many new pear orchards are beginning to come into bearing that are being watched with much interest. Quinces Singularly enought, most quinces bushes, when protected, yielded satisfactorily, and the demand m this section was met by the abundance of this kind of fruit and that too, of good quality. A few seasons have passed since the bulk of the quinoe bushes were killed back, so that they hare now recovered their former size and Tigor for ample fruiting. Peaches Not only the seedling, but the grafted peach trees bore a lig;it crop of peaches. So many trees dropped their fruit when about half matured, while some others ripened it quite unevenly. Grapes Many of the grape growers ol this section are abandoning the vineyard, owing to the prevalence of the grape-berry worm. This insect rendered some of the varieties this year practically valueless as the tenderrind varieties seem to suffer most, and naturally enough, are the sorts that are most desired. Strawberries Most plantations suffered severely by the late freezes la-st spring, yet at least one half a crop was gathered that met a most, ready sale.

Eneomology and Ornithology. Intereat of late has become more general in ne subject of the relationship of the birds and insects to fruit growing, This has been demonstrated to the sat-1 isfaction of the fruit grower, so that ! he sees the need of protecting the ! birds to lessen the chances of insect I attacks to his trees, vines, canes and 't maturing fruits. This method tends ; not only to the increased yield in 1 bushels, of fruit but to the grade and ' improved condition of the fruit itself. which from a commercial view is of gre" value, resulting m nigner prices and lessening the chances of the drawbacks to the keeping of stored or re frigerated ripened fruit.

Several varieties of the so called resurrection ;lant have appeared

among the novelties offered by florists, but the original is the rose of Jericho.

Along the shores cf the Dead sea, far nnnrrfi ?i v- to Via nut nt raVi ff tVc spray, trrows this rose, a little nlant i famed in many a legendary story. which, when ripened, rolls up its sprays and Dranchcs into a curious little brown ball. The desert winds snap off it? dry stem and whirl the seemingly dead little bp.)' ;way over sandy plains, like a feati fight. After It chances to reach s;.;ie damp place, in about ten days, the moisture hns wrought a miracle, for the onoe dead is alive again, green and crowing. The old time pilgrims, who brought back this plant with them from the Holy Land, told wonderful tales f its power to bloom out on Christmas day and gave it the name oj resurrection flower. Another old legend names It St. Mary's rose, because it is said that when Joseph and Mary were fleeing from Egypt one of these flowers grew; from every spot where they halted to rest. ; The dry bail when unfolding drops its seed, and from these It may be cultivated as an annual. To resurrect these drv bali.t it in simnlv nvwj5nrv to keep tliera standing in glasses of water. immersed about halfway to the top of their branches. The expansion Is merely a mechanical, spongelike process. The botanical name of the rose of Jericho is acastatica, from anastasis, resurrection. There are other species of resurrection plants, but they are not bo attractive as their Dead sea relative, which, although it has very little beauty, has an bonored nlacw amonz flowrs because of the many fancies j and associations it calls up and its ue-

"It is too bad so many people are prejudiced against spiders," said the man who always finds out curious things. "If they could stand it to have spiders around, they would soon get rid of cockroaches. In the spider sues him with more malevolence than I dos the elennly housewife. And not , only is this hatred more deep rooted; it j is more deadly. All things considered. the cockroach shows mighty little re spect for the human race.

Pierce's Family Medicines for all the ingredients entering into them are printed on the bottle - "wrappers and attested under oath as being complete and correct. They are gathered from Nature's laboratory, being selected from the most valuable native, medicinal roots found growing in our American forests. While potent to cure they are perfectly harmless even to the most delicate women and children.

Not a drop of alcohol enters into Dr. Pierce's leading medicines. A much better agent is used both for extracting and preserving the medicinal principles, viz. pure triplerefined glycerine of proper strength. This agent possesses medicinal properties of its own, being a most valuable anti-septic and anti-ferment, nutritive and soothing demulcent. Glycerine plays an important part in Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery in the cure of indigestion, dyspepsia and weak stomach, attended by sour risings, "heartburn," foul breath, coated tongue, poor appetite, gnawing feeling in stomach, biliousness and kindred derangements of the stomach, liver and bowels. For all diseases of the mucous membranes, the "Golden Medical Discovery " is a specific. Catarrh, whether cf the nasal passages or of the stomach, bowels or pelvic organs is cured by it.
