Now, what does Old Cobweb Hall mean by "direct." I will tell you: He does not buy any of his liquors from any wholesaler or rectifiers, but buys all of his goods from the manufacturer and does away with the middlemen and gets his whisky pure aDd unadulterated, and gets the certificate of the United States guager. Now, let all the saloonkeepers do likewise. P.

A BUSINESS MATTER.

Business men, a3 a rule, follow the plan of taking an inventory at least once a year, in order to ascertain as nearly as possible how they stand financially. The majority of farmers do not. It can hardly be urged, under present conditions, that the farmer's prolits are so Urge that bis linances do not need look^ ing after. There may be instances where this is the case, but at the end of the year the profits are usually not so large that it is at all difficult to count them. And when, as is the case at the present time, the profits are small, it is quite an item to know bow much and from what source, the farm pays. It is an item to know whether or not at the end of the year the work has been profitable. While the keeping of correct accounts with the different parts of farm work is the best plan of knowing the amount of prolit that is realized or the per cent, of loss that is sustained, yet many consider thi6 too much trouble, and the next best plan to this is the taking of an inventory every year, and while this plan may not show the details as fully as the keeping of accounts, yet, it will show whether, in the aggregate, the farm work has paid or not.

Care must be taken in determining the prices, or rather the value. As a rule, a fair market price at the time of making the invoice will be right. Young growing stock may be invoiced at a fair price, but with animals that have passed their prime this fact must be taken into consideration. A reasonable percentage should be allowed for the wear and teur of the machinery and tools. In this way, at least, the general profit may, to a considerable extent, be determined.

CIub-Koot.

Club-root is a disease that is almost universal wherever cabbages are raised, either in this or other countries. It rarely or never attacks them when planted in virgin soil, which suggests that cabbages should not follow cabbages upon the same soil, nor should plants at all subject to the infection be planted on ground where cauliflower, turnips, Brussels sprouts or any thing of the cabbage family

ha3

been raised, un

til a period of two or three years has intervened. The disease is caused by a fungus peculiar to the cabbage and turnip cIhes.

In your own case the propor

remedy would seem to be to raise your next crop of egg-plants, tomatoes, etc., on new ground, if possible, and certainly not upon ground where, during the present year, the plants have been infected. At the New Jersey station the various ordinary insecticides and the preparations recommended for the somewhat kindred diseases of the mildew and black rot of the grapevine were tried without any good effect against club-root. When there is danger of clubbing the station has recommended chloride of lime as a preventative. Make a solution with not quite water enough upon the powder to dissolve all of it then, taking one part of this solution to two or throe parts of water, apply to the roots of the cabbage at planting and to the soil immediately above the roots. Dr. Oemler, an authority on Southern truck farming, saye: '-This (club-root) appears to be less the case when the land is plentifully supplied with lime naturally, or when it is used as a manurial application. Although the cabbage is little affected with the disease at the South it is not well to have cabbages follow cabbages on the fame ground."

Onions Vti-Jiis Qululne.

One day I was taken with chills and headache—signs that my old enemy, malaria, was on hand. My quinine bos was empty, and 1 looking forward to a restless, sleepless night. In desperation I peeled a raw onion and slowly ate it, then went to bed with warm feet and an extra comforter, when presto! I was asieep in five minutes, and awakened in the morning free from malaria and ready for a day's duties. Our homely but strong frieud will be appreciated in time as a medicine, and if agriculturists would turn their attention to raising a model onion, with the strong scent taken out that taints the breath so unpleasantly, families will be putting their "pills" in the cellar by the barrel, and the doctors would take to onion farming. The onion acts as a cathartic and diuretic and may help to Ureak up a cold or lessen the bad symptoms. Said a doctor: "1 always store a barrel of onions in my cellar during the fall. We have them cooked twice a week, and whoever of the family is threatened with a cold eats some onion raw. If this vegetable was generally eaten there would be no diphtheria, rheumatism, gout, kidney or 6tomach trouble. But'bless you! the young men and women are afraid to eat them. One young man went so far aa to 6ay to me, 'If my wife ate onions I would get a bill of divorce.'"

A Ileal Joke.

Editor's Wife (2 a. m.)—John! John! There's a burglar in the house. I hear him down stairs. Oh, do get up.

John (half awake)—A burglar." In this house? Wife—Yea. Listen! Don't you hear that?

John (rollincr over again)—He must be an amateur.—[Philadelphia Enquirer.

The Sign Failed.

Young Husband—Seems to me, my dear, this chicken is pretty tough. Young Wife—I know it is, and I can't understand it at all. I looked in its mouth and could see it hadn't ey_en cut its first teeth yet.—[New York Weekly.

lessees will call upon business men immediately to get assistance by subscription from those who will be benefited by the club and those who are willing to assist the venture. Assistance for the present is very necessary because the $600 guarantee money and advance money required before the season opens, will take at least SI,000, Bnd other expanses will add to that amount. Some money has been promised voluntarily, and an effort will be made to secure at least $1,500. Manager Smith has signed Henry Cleveland to cover second base and says that he is a hard hitter. He is a brother of Elmer Cleveland, third baseman for the Omaha club. He also expects to sign Wilmington, of this city, to pitch, and is in communication with O'Conner, of Bloomington, III., Mauck, M. DeVall, of Cleveland, and Payne, of Youngstown, Ohio, all pitchers. He expects to secure either Branninhurg or WilsoD. of Pittsburg, and Pitch, of Youngstown, Ohio, to catch and is also corresponding with several fielders. He is making an e?peciBl effort to have out-fielders who are good batters.
