Chrlsri.i week," said the Major, "always reminds me of the last week of December, 1SG2. Our division was camped with others of the Army of the Cumberland near Nashville, and we were having a good time. In the canras city about Nashville there were nearly 50,000 soldiers taking advantage of the concentration to do a good deal :f visiting and sightseoing. "The day before Christmas an Eng lishman In our company walked ten miles to get a goose for our Chrlstmr Jinner. The markets of Nashville were Dpen to us. but our Englishman wanted a goose, and he went beyond our veJette line to get it. lie cooked It for hours, but seemed to be a little upset. In answer to my questions he said : I saw Old Rosey out in front, and I discovered that this whole army will move forward the day after Christmas.' "I did not believe the story then, but that night received orders to have the company ready for marching on tne morning of December 20, and I learned that the same order had gore to all the company commanders in the division. We had goose for dinner on Christmas, cooked by an Englishman In the good Did English way, but I have never cared for goose since. I probably ate too much. At all events, I dreamed that we started for the front, the whole army in Indian file led by our tough old goose, and that we w uund In a graceful way Into tne very center of the rebel camp. "When I awoke the company was formed, and In half an hour 40,000 men were moving southward from Nashville on half a dozen different roads, and before night were driving the enemy back. Only three days more of Christmas week passed, and we were engaged in the battle of Stone River. I never think of that struggle but what I think of Blaine's words, 'Battles such as established Scott's fame In the Niagara campaign, of Jackson's at New Orleans, or Taylor's at Buena Vista, were In magnitude repeated a hundred times during the civil conflict under commanders whose namfs are absolutely forgotten by the public "We who were at Stone River, or Gettysburg, or Chickamauga, know this Is true, A single corps of the Army of the Cumberland or the Army of the Potomac contained a larger number of troops than Taylor or Jackson ever Raw mustered. There were in the Un Ion army 1,700 regiments of Infantry, 270 regiments of cavalry, and 000 batteries of artillery. And it was an hoonr to belong to such an army, whether it fought at Shiloh or Stone River, or 'Antietam or Gettysburg." "Just so," said the Corporal, "hut there were times when a fellow was not at all proud. For example, I saw General Richard W. Johnson at Stone Iliver, when we were proud of each other, atd he saw me on one occasion when I was not looking for him and I dien t care to see him. As Sergeant Brown, of our battery (I, Second ULI nois, L. A.), would say, me and the General had both been on duty, I on picket and he looking after his lines. was lugging a goose to camp when I met the General face to face. I ought to explain that a good forager would begin on chicken and run down the scale of ham, fresh pork, duck, sweet potatoes, cabbage and sorghum to goose. "To see a forager headed for camp with a goose, was, in effect, notice to the out-bound foragjr that the supplies were exhausted, and the country In front depleted and abandoned in a for aging sense. And yet there Is to me no more toothsome morsel than goose served with onions. General Johnson probably did not share my views on thi3 question, as he looked in a contemptuous way tit the goose. I made the best of a difficult situation, saluted and was passing on with a smile when the Gen eral halted me. "He asked, looking at the goose, how far I had been to the frout, asked about the roads, the location of the farm houses, and the people residing in them As I answered he looked me squarely ki the eyes with a casual glance now and then at the goose. I divined that his mind was busy with some problem and my mind I know wrs busy try Ins to arrange an alibi for the goose. Fi nally the strained situation was relieved by the General saying: Thank fori and riding back to the rear and right. He turned, however, to say : Corporal, keep straight ahead to camp. I suppose you are hungry.' I didn't quite understand whether this was a resection on me or the goose, but I went to camp." "At Stone River," said the Captain, 'Crittenden A. Cox, of the Thirty-Fifth 0hk, had fought everything out of alyht In his Immediate front and was posing at a rest with his leg3 wide apart, leaning forward on his musket. Colonel Boyntoi, in passing, noticed the unsoldierly position, and said to Cox: 'Why are you standing there with your lers so wide apart? What's the matter with you?' Cox replied: 'Colonel, the robs at the battery over there are sending their cannon balls over here in a very reckless way, and I don't propose to take any chances oa losing both Hay le;rs.' Cox's theory was that if he kept his legs apart a cannon ball might go between them, but that with his wide apart, no cannon ball was large 'enough to take both of them off. The Colonel looked Cox ovtA as he listened to his explanation, and then ordered, Clo.e up those logs. A cannon ball will never touch you.' Cox straightened up, brought hU heels together, and, although the Thirty-Fifth had hot work that day, Cox came out of the battlo uuscarred and came home with both his legs. I wonder If General II. V. N. Boynton at Washington remembers Crittenden A. Cox of his old regiment? "By the way, the lMys of the ThirtyFifth always claimed that they fired the last shots nt Chickamauga. When their ammunition was exhausted, late on the last day, they secured a short supply from the cartridge boxes of the dead and wounded, and, after dark, when the rebels made their last charge on Thomas' position, these cartridges, gathered from the field, drove , them back. The boys of the Thirty-Fifth have always insisted tint not a single musket shot was heard on the field

after that Their brigade was the last

to leave the line, and the Thirty-Fifth Ohio came off the field with empty muskets." Chicago Inter Oecan. The Monitor and I lie M err I nine. A favorite fiction with Northern writ ers lor tne newspapers ana st-iioo; books is that the Virginia, which they call the Merrimae, was defeated by the Monitor iu the famous fight in Hampton Roads, and kept out of her way afterward. Corrections of this persistent delusion appear to make no impression. The critical correspondent, "W. W. R.,' replies to this statement as follows : "Now, Tatnall did destroy the Merrimac, as she drew too much water to be brought to Richmond, but that he was eager to engage the Monitor was shown by his actions on April i just one month after the engagement be tween the two vessels. On that day, with a new smokestack and iron port shutters (she had noue in her engage ment with the Monitor), the Merrimac steamed down within a few miles of Fortress Monroe, under whose guns the Monitor lay, fired shots at her, blew her whistle, and in every way possible defied her to come out from under the guns of that impregnable fort and give battle. This defiant conduct was continued for several days, in full view of several French and English men-of-war, whose yardarms and rigging were manned in expectation of a great fight. Finally, Tatnall, taking position with the Merrimac so as to head the Monitor off in case she came to the rescue, sent the gunboat Jamestown to the village of Hampton, a few miles from Fortress Monroe, and, in full sight of the Monitor, captured two vessels loaded with hay for the United States army and towed them ofi. I mean no reflection on the gallant oilicer who commanded the Monitor when I make this statement, for, could he have had his way, the Monitor would have met her adversary half way. I heard from an officer spme years after the war that strict orders had come from Washington for the Monitor to remain under the guns of the fort. And the authorities were wise. In twelve months the United States government had a dozen Monitors." The correspondent might have added that there were other Federal war vessels in the Itoacls Itesides the Monitor, and that they hastily weighed anchor and put to sea. or retired under the guns of the "Impregnable fort" when the Virginia moved out to challenge them and the Monitor to another combit. What he says, however. Is sufl! cl?nt. It was not the Confederate ship that avoided a renewal of the fight, and it is to be presumed that the Federal authorities at Washington would scarcely have been so careful of the welfare of the Monitor If they had regarded it as a triumphant victory on the former occasion. The nimble Monitor made a gallant fight with her clumsier, but equally gallant, adversary, and deserves full credit therefor. It was certainly not the fault of the Virginia, however, that she did not have the opportunity to win further honors at any time and on any ground of her own choosing. Charleston Newsand Courier. Getting a Furlough. The old excuse for obtaining leave ol absence, proverbial among college students, was not unknown to the soldiers of the civil war, according to Major Hamilton's account given in the "Southern Historical Tapers." Orders had been issued from headquarters to the effect that no furloughs would be granted save on the occasl of a death In the family of the applicant. Dalgetty, an Englishman, asked for leave on account of the decease of his grandmother, and the request was approved. Unfortunately for Dalgetty, the colonel of the regiment met him before he had a chance to get away. "I am very sorry to hear of your affliction," said the kind officer. -When did your grandmother die?" "Thank you, colonel," replied Dalgetty, edging away. "She was very old, and couldn't have lasted much longer." "Ah; and when did she pass away?" "It's quite an affliction," continued L Dalgetty, still on the move. "We shall miss her." "Perhaps you are hard of hearing!1 roared the colonel, in a voice sufficient for a brigade front ; "I asked you wheD f5he died?" "She's been dead forty years, sir," ejaculated Dalgetty, dismally. "I can't lie about It, but I think I ought to have a furlough on It" The colonel had to laugh, but he sent the soldier back to camp. A few days later Dalgetty got a bullet In his leg. As he was carried off the field, h shouted to his comrades, slapping hla thigh : "Thirty days' leave and no death li the family!" Devotion to the "Colors." "You don't know what a nature f fellow gets," wrote Walt Whitman ir war times, "not only after being a vidier awhile, but after living in the sights and influences of the camps, the wounded, etc. a nature he never experienced before. The Stars and Stripes, the tune of 'Yankee Doodle,' and similar things produce such an effect on a fellow as never before. 1 have seen them bring tears on some men's cheeks and others turn pale with emotion. I have a little flag It le longed to one of our cavalry regiment! presented to me by one of the wound el. It was taken by the Secesh In n fight and rescued by our men In c bloody swirmish following.

'1 M TV The rotation of crops does not call for more plowing, but less, and more stirring of the soil. It is the surplus or increase of price above cost of production that adds to the prosperity of the people. Use brush and warm water for washing milk cans, then rinse with scalding water and stand in the sun. For wounds from barbed wire apply carbolic acid, one part, with lard, eight parts. Cleanse the wound first. The difference between a good and inferior caretaker is everything in the matter of success or failure In cattle feeding. Did yo uever notice how a bunch of hogs will always work their feeding troughs away from and never toward the slop barrel? Take the first rainy day to repair the tools, oiling the harness, and other matters that can be so .eli done in the barn or workshop. If trees are received from a distance and are partly dry when orened, bury them for a week, top and allr-in finely pulverized, moist soil, to restore them. The horse has a Bmaller stomach than the cow, and has less power to digest coarse food, hence it is worse than wasteful to oblige them to live on coarse food. It is injurious. Keep milk in cold water. Don't use wooden milk palls. Don't leave skim milk standing In cans. Don't allow milk cans to remain in the stable. Strain milk carefully through the wire and, cloth strainers. Don't mix night's and morning's milk before cooling. I The farmer that makes any pretense to dairy interests soon learns to know the great value of soiling crops. When the early summer drought dries up the pasture there Is nothing like having a supplementary crop to draw needed supply rations from for the milch cows. The thin-rinded or Hampshire hog is rapidly increasing in popularity. The exhibit of this breed at several of the State fairs attracted much attention. The Hampshire hog is' possibly the most picturesque in appearance of all hogs, as he Is black with a white strip completely around his body. Full the cabbages up by the roots, instead of breaking or cutting the stalks. Remove any dry or decaying leaves and hang thcra to the studding in a dry cellar by means of twine tied about the stalks, placing them so that they do not touch one another or the walls of the cellar. Don't feed heifers that are Intended for the dairy large quantities of fat-producing foods, but an abundance of good hay and a limited supply of oats and corn, for the habit of laying on flesh In calfhood Is liable to follow her to motherhood, and lead her to placing the results of heavy feeding on her back Instead of In the milk pail. Clay soils are lacking in nitrogen and sometimes phosphoric acid. This can be supplied1 by barnyard manure. The growing of legumes has made it Iossible for the farmer to grow some kind of a leguminous crop, one that will gather nitrogen from the nlr and store it up in the soil. Salt is not a plant food, and therefore cannot supply the elements needed by the clayey soil. RatftlnR Alligators.

Manila paper may also be used In the same way; it costs more, but Is more durable. Nurserymen use pplit tile, placing them around the tree and tying so they will not part. Two or three hundred of these can be bought at any til factory at a very reasonable cost. Have them split while green and burned with the other tile. Kinds of Soy Tlenn. One reason why soy beans have not become more prominent In American agriculture has been the imiossibility of securing seed of a particular variety. In the few localities In the United States where fanners have learned how to utilize them to best advantage they have proved to be a crop of high value. They are especially valuable for mixing with corn for silage, for the production of hay, and for use as pasture, especially for pigs. An expert of the Department of Agriculture has made a study of the soy beans for several years and has Identified no !es than twenty-two varieties. These have been classified and described in a bulletin just issued, and the department hopes that with this information fanners will hereafter be able to obtain from seedsmen the particular varieties which they wish to plant , The Cotxwold Sheep. The Cotswolds are large, hardy and prolific sheep, und the ewes are good mothers. They furnish a valuable

combing wool, and the average of fleeces is from 7 to S pounds. Selected Hocks produce considerably more wool. The wethers, fattened at 14 months old in England, . weigh from 15 to 24 pounds ier quarter, and at 2 years old from 20 to 00 pounds per quarter. They frequently are made to weigh considerably more in this country. Their mutton is superior to that of the Leicesters, the fat being less abundant and better mixed with lean meat. They are much used in crossing other breeds and varieties. They impart more hardiness, with stronger constitutions and better qualities as breeders to the Leicesters, and thicken them in the hind quarters. They are decidedly favored sheep with the breeders of the United States. . Tile Drainage. In some reclamation work in Mari nette, Wis., marsh land, noted by the Department of Agriculture, it was found that phosphoric acid is the element most needed in such work, and that potash Is also beneficial. In tile draining, the red clay lands near Superior, the best stand and the best yield of corn was obtained where the tile lines had been placed forty feet apart. Further distances between the lines gave poorer results. In the Marinette and many other experiments, the resttlts indicate, with reasonable certainty, that "acid soils need phosphate, and that It wiit .e possible, by a test of a soil, with litmus paper (obtainable at any drug store) to tell if it needs, or will need, in the Immediate future, an application of phosphate fertilizer." Hanna Corn Teta. One of the most valuable bulletins on Indian com which we have yet seen Is Xo. 147, Issued by the Kansas Experiment Station. It contains the reports of four years of actual work in the corn experimental station by Professors Ten Eyck and I lusted. Durng these four years 112 varieties of corn were tested. The bulletin gives the results of a very careful study of these different varieties with a reccmmendatlon of such rarietles as seeni best adapted to Kansas conditions. In addition to thi study of varieties a very complete report is made of different methods of planting and the best date to plant, a study of soil moisture in connection with the different methods of planting, different ways of cultivating, a comparative style of fertilizers, a study In rotation, experiments in shrinkage, etc. Altogether it is an admirable bulletin. It differs from all other bulletins on this subject which have been' Issued, in that it contains the reports of actual, careful experimental work, rather than a theoretical presentation of the subject. In the Vegetable Cellar. Suburban Life says apple and potato bins may t partly filled with welldried autumn leaves, which are among the best preservatives. An old orchardIst declares that the leaves of the apple tree will. If well dried, keep sound, well-ripened apples in good condition until the trees come into bloom the following spring. Provide smaller spaces for beets, car rots, onions and other vegetables, not forgetting a deep bin for celery, which may be taken out of the ground with the roots as complete as possible, and packed in boxes or the concrete bin, containing four or five lncnes deep of clean sand. One farmer says he has kept celery growing and blanching half of the winter by burying the roots in clean, damp sand and tying each stalk closely with a piece of cloth. Strips three or four inches wide make the best ties for celery, which should le keptIn a dark place or lightly covered wtn a piece of perfectly dry burlap. All of the usual market vegetables may be stored in a dry cellar and kept until early dainties come In the first days of spring. Itlanketlnj; Cott. During the last couple of years a good many dairymen in Australia have adopted the practice of blanketing their cows during wet and cold weather, and "the results in every case are spoken of as being highly satisfactory), When cows are kept warm the food they consume, instead of being utilized to maintain bodilj- Veat, is largely devoted to the production of milk, and in this way the dairyman realizes a large profit on the very small outlay required to provide blankets for his catttle In cold weather. Men who have studied the subject closely say that the effect of covers on cows Is very remarkable. The quiet cows become more quiet and contented, while those that are shy and nervous have their nerves soothed and submit to being handled wlthoat fear. This Is no fad of one or two men, but has become so common that manufacturers have placed several kinds of blankets, as coverings, on the market with a view to supplying the demand that has arisen. It is said, however, that a homemade blanket, made from old wheat bags, serves the purpose as well as anything. After they have been worn for a short time they become thoroughly water proof. Northwest Farmer, Winnipeg. Sowing Clover With Rape. Clover seed with rape Is a very successful and popular method with many farmers who are engaged in ralsb-g sheep and goats, sayr, a bulletin Issued by the Department of Agriculture. With the land prepared as indicated for sowing clover alone in the spring, ten to twelve pounds of clover seed and two to four iwunds of rape seed per acre are sown broadcast about the first of May, and covered with harrow. If the ground is rough and cloddy, it should be finished with a roller. If this mixture is sown on a thoroughly pulverized and compact seed bed, the rape develops rapidly and furnishes excellent pasture for sheep, goats, calves or swine, In six to eight weeks. The tramping of the animals while feeding during the summer, principally on thu rape, forms a dust mulch on the surface of the ground. In this way soil moisture is retained for the use of the clover during the dry summer. If a ltay crop is desired the second season, the rape is killed by pasturing it closely with sheep during the late fall or winter. Sheep eat off the crowns of the plants close to the ground and the rape then dies. If the rape is not killed It will go to seed the next summer, and tira stalks will give some trouble In the hay. If the clover is not cropped closely the first summer, this method gives an excellent stand.

Left alone in the world upon whose sunshine and brightness it can never hoie to gaze, Cicero, the latest infant bear to arrive at the city park zoo, has been adopted by Jim, the gray wolf, says the Denver Zoo. Jim came upon the tiny 2 weeks old cub one day licking the carcass of its flead mother. Poor, blind, little fellow, it could not understand why the lifeless figure on the ground did not respond to its affectionate caresses. The other bears in the Inelosure had gathered curiously around the pair and the livelier one tried to Induce the cub to romp with them, playfully Jostling and pushing iL Terhaps this was their way 'of showing their S3mpathy and they word only trying to cheer up the baby bruin. Jim had a more human quality of sympathy. He watched the scene for a few moments and then, walking up to Cicero, licked the little fellow's face the way Mother Dear used to do. Cicero instinctively seemed to know that it had found a new protector and com forter. When the keeper came a half hour later to remove the dead animal the orphaned bear was nestling contentedly beside the gray wolf. This was a month ago. Since the two have been inseparable, the cub thriving under the tender care of the wolf. Indeed no mother could lavish more love upon her offspring than Jim the gray wolf lavishes upon his adopted charge. It is a strange sight to see the wolf trotting up and down the animal Inelosure with the chubby bear tagging at his heels. Sometimes Jim forgets that Cicero is only a youngster and its fat legs are further handicapped by its affliction. He will hasten his gait when the sudden recollection of Cicero brings him to a stop. Looking around to see if. the cub is still following, he will retrace his steps and, making known to the panting culfMhat he is near, will studiously keep abreast with it. Uncle Allen. .

"Just Set." ' A man who does not like work Yery well was asked how .he managed to spend his time. "Well," he said, "some days I just set and think, and other days I just set." -A great many people "Just set" without thinking. Mental laziness is fatal to all growth. Many people never think deeply into any subject They just browse around on the surface. They never have trained themselves to concentrate vigorously, to hold the mind tenaciously upon one subject; their thinking Is of the hop-sklp-and-jump order. This desultory surface mulling sort of brain action is not real thinking. To really think, we must focus the mind upon one subject and hold It there. One reason why the majority of people lead such superficial lives is because their minds are not trained to think deeply and broadly. They do not go far enough into subjects to get c comprehensive view of them. Their thinking is so superficial that their whole lives are shallow. It does not matter how good a brain one has, before it can accomplish anything worth while, it must be trained until concentration becomes an automatic habit. One of the great advantages of a college course is the training of the mind to think logically and deeply. Success Magazine, Regarding Jack.
