_ UP." '
...The movement to raise funds for
the 'Norwalk Hospital. known by the
general term of a “hold up." has
brought prominently to public atten-
‘ tlUlI a matter that has been on the
minds of many of our peeple for some
time. and which has caused criticisms
of the management of this institution.
Of the “hold up." we are free to say
‘ that there are features of such a math-
, oil of securing funds that have their
. obiootiops. A general solicitation of
funds w thin
the town, or even out of
it, can be fully commended. but to
organise a general movement against
all comers and under all conditions by
young ladies. is a proceeding that to
some extent involves the proprieties.
and some are sincere in their appre-
hensions of the treatment the solici-
torshmay be subjected to. Others look
upon the whole matter as a sort of
frolic in the_ cause of” charity, and
Justify the means because of the and
desired. Unquestlonably a liberal fund
will be secured by the proposed plan.
and it is a reasonable assumption that
the ladies of Norwalk will conduct
‘the "hold up" with all the attractive-
ness possible, and with a gentility and
persuasiveness so combined as to in-
spire the admiration and respect of all
whom they approach.
The more serious phase of this mat
ter is the emphatic objection to pres
ent management of the hospital. It
ishheid, if the hospital is a public in-
stitution. and supported by public
charity. that the public is entitled to
a voice in its direction. and that every
individual shall have equal benefit of
its advantages. It has been declared
by a member of the staff of physicians
.that the hospital is a private insti-
tution. This claim raises the question
if a proviate institution, what claim
has the hospital to public support.

sicians not members of the hospital

receive the benefits of the institution.
they can no longer be their physician
but the patient must accept the ser-
vices of the staff, and that thus then
business is forced from them. and
that the patient's wishes regarding the
physician’s services he or she may do-
sirs' are given no consideration. In
short, that the hospital. as conducted.
Is in the interest of a small clique of
physicians. to the detriment of phy-
sicians not included in the clique and
to the dissatisfaction of their patients.
When this cause for complaint is re-
moved. the hospital will have only
friends. Until it is there will be op-
position to its management, and it
will not receive the support of the en-
tire community.
‘ The hospital needs funds. It is an
institution that is required for the
general welfare. It should have the
did it is seekingnow. Afterward the
management should be made a special
subject of consideration.

A FARM wuoss caoP Is Tween.
Many Tracts of Land Desirable for
Tree Growing.
In every state of the Union there fi‘l'c
many tracts of so—calied agricultural
land, which, owing to their hilly char-
acter, poor soil. or numerous boulders.
are not suitable for farming. The
owners of such tracts are often at a
loss to know what to do with them.
Without question. the best use to
which land of this kind‘a‘uu be put is
to plant it with trees. One of the fun-
damental principles of forest econo-
mics is, that soil which is not. good
enough to make the growing of coral
crops profitable should be devoted to
the production of wood crops. This
does not mean that trees grow better
on poor soil than on fertile soil. They
will. of course, grow better on fertile
soil. But, in proportion to the money
invested. better returns are secured
from trees planted on the less valua~
blc land. '
Most of the cone-bearing irons. and
many hardwoods as well, will thrive in
soil of medium fertility. All trees,
however, do um thrive on poor, sandy
ridges. or on hillsidemwhcre the soil
is thin. Black walnut, hardy cuisine
and white oak, for their best develop-
ment. require a deep, fertile soil. wcll
watered and well drlinrdmnd it is not
advisable to plant them where these
requirements are not met.
'An Ohio farmer is solving the prob-
lem of what to do with the wornout
farm. He owns an old homestead of
sixty acres. which he is desirous of
keeping in the family. He does not
live on the place, however, and [urin-
iug has been a losing proposi—
tion. He has,/ therefore. do-
cidcd to plant the entire tract
with trees. He has already planted
35.000 Norway spruce. set .thrco and
one-half feet apart each way. on an
area of about eleveni acres. Theat-
trees will be cut, as they become large
enough, for Christmas trees, .
Chestnut seedlings will be planted
in the spaces left by the removal of
tho spruce, and it is expected that. they
will begin to come in hearing when
the last spruce is cut. In addition to
the spruce, hardy catalpa. black locust,
elm, hoxelder and sycamore have been
planted. it is planned to put the en
tire sixty acres in forest within fivo or
six years. The owner is wise in plant-
ing several kinds of trees instead of
confining himself to one s Iecies. His
forest will be producing s x or seven
kinds of lumber, chestnuts and Christ-
mas trace at the same time.
RIVAL DIGNITIES.
An Englishman, fond of boasting of
his ancestry, took a coin from his
pockt and pointing to the head en-
griivod on it. said, "My great great
grandfather was made a lord by the
king whose picture you see on that
shilling."
"What a coincidence." said his Yen-
kec companion, who at once produced
another coin, "my great great grand-
father wns made an angel by the in-
dian whose picture yon see on this
cent." '
