CONJURED A TREATY. Hot Houdln, the Matclcfan, Awed the Arabs Into SobmUilon. During the French conquest of Algeria (1S30-3) negotiations for perice were entered upon with the sheiks of certain Arab tribes, and a meeting for the settlement of terms was arrangr! to take place at the French headquarters. The French officers received their guests with great hospitality, and after the banquet given in their honor, at which the utmost splendor was employed in order to dazzle their eyes and captivate their simple minds, ar adjournment was made to a large hall, where M. Iloudin, the celebrated con-' jurer, who had accompanied the French forces, gavo au exhibition of bis skill They stared In open mouthed wondei at all the tricks that were performed, and a feeling of awe crept over theiu as they witnessed the mysterious appearance and disappearance of varlou objects. Dut what appeared, to there most marvelous was the apparenl manufacture of cannon balls. M. IIoudin passed round among them a higb hat, which they examined very carefully, but without suspecting anythln; unusual In either its make or its appearance. When the hat was returned to him the conjurer placed It on th floor In the middle of the stage in full view of his audience. He then pro ceeded to take from the hat cannot balls apparently without number ant' rolled them across the floor into the wings. With this the performanci terminated. The chiefs then consulted anions themselves and came to the conclusior that it was useless to offer any opposi tion to an army that could turn out Iti ammunition in so easy a manner They thererore signed the required treaty and departed to tell their friend in the desprt of the wonderful powej of the Invaders.

Give ti e young chickens the run of the place. If you sin against your stock, ho sure your sin will find you oxit In reduced proilts. "Home" to the boy and girl does not mean simply a place in which to eat and sleep and work. Some men have not yet learned that brains count more in farming than long legs and brute force. Some men enjoy being grouchy and their highest ambition is to destroy something others have created. The team should be fed the heaviest meal in the evening, for they have more time then to enjoy It. The food limit of every cow should be governed by the ability of the cow to give a profit on what she eats. If a hen lays an egg a week the year through, it will just pay for her feed and every extra egg will yield a PrOfit. ; I you want to get a good catch of clover next season, give the fields which are to be sown a good coating of manure. It pays to be honest with the children from the start, because they are sure to find us out in time, and then respect takes wings. A woman often goes about her work with a headache that would send a man to bed and set him to howling so he could be heard a mile. No sensible man would take chances ou breeding poor, starved animals, nor should he think of using Immature and shrunken grain for seed. The greatest value of sheep In an orcharif is found probably in their being used as a means of fertilizing orchards that are bearing. In commercial fruit growing the demands regulate the supply to a great extent, wXhereas In the private trade the supply largely regulates the demand. Mite traps are being used successfully by some. They are so arranged that when the mites seek seclusion aft-r their nightly feast they are trapped. The hog pasture should le gotten In bettor shape by sowing grass over badly rooted places, and the fence should be mended so that the yourg pig? do not t.-ieak'out. Sheep can never be pastured on rape safely wile it Is damp either from ralu or tlew. In order that tne sheep cannot go onto the raie early in the morning It is essential that the gate be closed each evening. A pumpkin cut In halves and placed before the fowls will soon Ik? nothing but rind. A good way is to stick theni on nails lu the walls of the house, the fowls will get desirable exercise in Jumping a few Inches to reach th'.-m; There Is enough back-breaking work to do without using the scop shovel to unload grain. Put in a portable dump elevator. The team will do the rest, and it will take a few minutes to crib a big load of corn. The business of growing market fruit ami that of growing fruit for private trade b an altogether different proposition and the selection of varieties must be mad,' according to the line of growing that is to be followed. 1 Milk should never be allowed to stand in the stable at all after milking. Professor Itussell has made some very Interesting experiments that show how rapidly milk will absorb various odors. He also shows that warm milk will ni'crh odors more rapidly than cooi u:i!k. One advantage of having calves come In the fall is that there is usually ir.ore time on the farm to attend to the cattle, calves are more economically raised, since by the time the spring grass shoots up they are ready for it, nnd are In good condition the next winter to begin the duties of maternity. There are five conditions which determine the value of milk for human food. First, the health of the cow; second, the composition of the milk; third. Its cleanliness and the surroundings under which it Is made, which determine how long it will remain sweet nnd palatable; fourth, its flavor, taste or odor; fifth, Its color and general appearance. Vne for Grnnr. CIlppinK". Grass clippings may le used In mub-hlng strawberry IkhIs, newly planted shrubs and trees nnd groups of the tall, hardy phlox or any shallow rooted plant. They help retain the moisture in the soil and protect the roots from the effects of the hot sun. They are used In keeping down rank growing weeds arour.d manure piles and in fence corners If put over them In very thick layers. When dumped in heaps cut grass heats rapidly, killing any weeds under it. When fall comes break up the matted lumps and pile away in some corner. I.reak up again the following spring and again in the fall and you will have a black mould useful in lightening up heavy soils. House and Garden. I) end Shot tor Infteet. When Insects, mice or other creatures infest grain bins, borrow out of sight or attempt to make their places secure ngahist ordinary methods of attack, the l,st remedy Is bisulphide, of carbon, a very volatile liquid, which becomes rapidly e-on verted into gas, penetrating Into every hole, crack or other harboring place. As this gas Is heavier than air, It sinks down to the lowest points, hence goes wherever the creatures can go. Toured into a rat hole (about a tablespoonful) and the hole covered with dirt, the rats must come out or perish. To destroy weevil in wheat it may be used with advantage. Being ver! Toiatlie, ana also highly explosive, no flame or light of any kind must be

brought near it, not even a lighted pipe or cigar. It has given excellent satisfaction when used at the roots of trees, after removing the earth for that purpose, in destroying root lice and other depredators that work near the roots. Iron Tonlo tor Fowls. Iron is jterbaps the very best stimulant that a fowl can have, and a good tonic may be made up as follows: To a quart of water add half a pounel of sulphate of iron and three or four drops of sulphuric acid. When the iron crystals are dissolved the tonic is ready for use, and will keep any length of time. The amount to use Is a tablespoonful in every quart of drinking water. The water containing this tonic must not hi put in iron or metal vessels. If this is given to adult birds It will Impart tone to the system and give them a bright, healthy appearance. The egg yield will be Increased and the color of the yolk brightened. A. F. J. in the Agricultural Gazette. la of Spraying Material. White arsenic is rarely adulterated, so that it is usually about 03 per cent pure. Paris green contains but little more than one-half .'S much arsenic and the arsenate of lead pastes no'-v on the market contain from 40 to oO per cent of water, and are only a little more than eme-half as strong In arsenic as paris green. In other words, one should use altout 2 pounds of paris green for 1 jtound of white arsenic, and 1 iounds of arsenate of lead paste for 1 pound of iuris green or 4 pounds of the paste for 1 pound of white arsenic. On this basis the user should use about 2 1-2 iounds of white arsenic made up according to either formula in order to have about the same amount of arsenic as would be contained in the 1C Iounds'of arsenate of lead to be used In 1G0 gallons of water. If the arsonlte of lime is comctly made, as It .can be by the formulas, so that there is little or no free arsenic in the solution. It would be safe to use it In place of the arsenate of lead, and It would be much cheaper. But there Is always some risk from using the arsenite of lime In water; it is safer to use It with the Bordeaux Mixture. M. V. Sllngerland In Ilurr New Yorker. Gothei! See.1 In October. The first of October we go into the cornfield with sacks and gather sel corn, taking the Ust ears from the j?st stalks. This field selection of seed is important. So much of the corn falls down when the wind storms come, but some stalks do not fall, and seed should be selected from tb, latter; that Is, from the stalks that have good root elevelopment. In solevtiug seed ears at the crib, we cannot tell anything about the stalk that produces those ears. There Is as much Individuality In cars of corn as there Is In people. It is very necessary t see the stalks upon which our seed ears grow, and we should select ears from only such stalks as have the characteristics that we desire In the stalks of the following crop. Experiments In selecting seed from tall and short stalks at the University of Illinois have developed two types of stalks, with an average difference of 20 inches in height. Boih kinds yield the same amount of grain, and the shorter stalk Is much to l preferred Hence, the advisability of selecting seed ears from short or medium stalUs. Ve tie the seed curs in a string a; id hang them up In au ojK'ii shed, where they may dry out thoroughly. Charles A. Howe, Jacksonville, III. " The Daisy Bee. Wraith, rated for convenience In terms of money with gold as Its basis, deceives the careless student. It dulls the iersiectlve and causes him to put a false value on other tilings, customarily neglected, but relatively large coutrihutors to the wealth ef the nation. When we read that Colorado produced ?.iö,00,000 In gold last year it is impressive enough to cause a Hooting thought of the boundless wealth that Is stored within lis hills and rocks. One-o or more a year the American hen Is plaerd on the shrine nnd worshiped as the source of more wealth than all the mine's. But it Is very lately that it was discovered that the busy but neglected bee prod iu es ?2,000,eH.) for the farmers of the country. The same investigation disclosed that with a little attention the bee could be made to triple bis product. Even as It Is, the honey crop Is worth more than the rice and buckwheat crops combined. It is arned without plowing, sowing or reaping. The labor employed is negligible; the soil re-qulres no fertilization and machinery is dispensed with. The bee Is of some consequence. St. Louis Republic. Fattening. Turkey. The necessity f r having turkeys In good, plump condition before marketing Is pretty generally understood among farmers. But there is considerable misunderstanding ns to the cor rcct way to go about the matter. Turkeys, If taken aright, are easüy fattened; in fact, easier than most other fowls. But one must go at it in the right yay. If turkeys have had five range all summer, you cannot fatten them with any satisfaction in nr. Inclosure. The change will cause them t fret and refuse to eat, and thus you will-lose Instead of gain. Teach the'iu to e-ome up every evening at least, and then stuff them 'with all they will possibly cat. You will soon find theJ, ranging at short distances only and coming up even beeween feeding limes Don't try to fatten the turkey or corn alone. A close diet of new corn often results In bowel troubles for the turkeys, Just as It docs for hogs, nnd a sick turkey Is usually a dead turkey. Mix the fattening ration; variety I desirable for several reasons. Equal parts of wheat, oats and corn make s good ration. Be sure and give then; all they will eat of these grains, and to hurry matters along, it is desira'ol to give an occasional mash feed oJ equal parts of corn meal and wheal middlings, which makes a very rieb feeel, especially if a quantity of grouire! beef scrap or green cut bone Is addy?. As the turkey takes on fat the flesl! turns to a rich golden color. If allowed free range while the fattening process is going on, the flesh gains in flavor and tenderness in a way it cannot if the birds were fattened In close quarters Agricultural Epltomlst.

g - Civil War Stories Railroad In Wnr Time. 'The most exciting perl -el In my railroad career was during the late war, ind mishaps and thrilling experiences ?rovded one another so closely at that time that it Is a bard matter to pick n good story from the bunch. The transportation of troops is one of the most difiicult things in the world when the excitement is at fever heat and all ihe employes have almost lost their wits. When the Southern forces made a dash into Pennsylvania and marched as far north as the SuJ-quehamia Itiver I was located on the north side of that stream, and you can imagine the trials I had to contend with. Haw I militia was being pushed out of Philadelphia at every possible moniert, and the speetl made by several of the trains ns they came north was something to wonder at. But one engineer overdid the speed business. He was given orders to make Columbia as quick as possible, and he proceeded to do It. All went well until about twenty miles out of the Quaker city, when the terrible rocking of the cars alarmed the soldiers, and they commenced to put on the brakes. When the train was stopped thej sent a committee to the engineer and told him to take it easy, and stationed two men in the locomotive to see that this request was carried out. They arrived at Columbus In plenty of time to face the rebels, but the bridge over the river had been burned, and the Southern army went back to Gettysburg and to defeat. Tn connection with the burning of the bridge another exciting incident in the railroad line occurred. Several cars loaded with passengers stood on tlK south side of the stroim about f0 feet from the bridge entrance. All was excitement, and the passengers were yelling at the engineer to pull oüt, but a cool conductor was In charge, and he waited until all the women and children In sight had boarded the train. When the signal was given the Confederates were rounding a bend in the railroad about a quarter of a mile away, and shots were being exchanged with a group of militia clustered around the bridge entrance. "Then came the. Union armv down the pike road In full retreat, narrowly missing the flank movement of the Southerners, and the train and this mass of humanity entered the bridge together. Thirty seconds later and the structure was flreel, and when that train pulled out of the north end of the bridge and the south end for 3iX feet was a mass of flames. That locomotive and half a dozen cars comprised the equipment of that branch road, and had the invading army captured it would have leen t.f great advantage to them. w'As to the number of soldiers killed ou the railroad during the war. It must have been an appalling list, but human life was of small moment In those stirring times, and a life lost here or th?re didn't count. We generally carried them In freight cars, and the instructions given by the employes looking to their safety all went 'for naught, as they did as they pleased. They would climb on top of the ears, and In pleasant weather they considered this a great lark. Several of the bridges crossing the track were not high enough to admit of a man standing up on the car roofs or even In a sitting position, while the train was passing under them. Protests were to no avail, as they believed the employes were trying to frighten them. Consequently, It was not an unusual sight to see these brave but re-k-li.s fellows swept from tLe cars and killed. There ls"a bridge directly south j of the Lancaster (Pa.) depot spanning a deep cut, and one morning, after a hot, sultry night, eight dead soldiers were, found alongside the track. I remember a Captain and men of their company said that while they were sorry for the Lieutenant, they were glad of the Captain's fate, as they would have, killed blm sooner or later, on account of his cruelty to them." Washington Star. a .Mt-iiil-r Still Mvlnff. "I have just received," said a Ivil war veteran, "a bid to the thirty-ninth annual reunion of my regiment, this bid always coming along at about this lime of year, the reunions being held, in. one yf-ar and another, In various towns of the New England State in which the regiment was raised. Our regiment had men from pretty much all over the State. "But what gets me Ik a printed list accompanying the invitation, giving the names and addresses of the iiKin!ors of the old regiment still living, tlu-s; numbering now, forty-tiiree years after the-close of the war, 237, which seems to mo a number surprisingly large. "elur regiment was mustered Into service in September, LS(!1, and mustered out in July, 1S(k; it served four years, lacking a little less than two months. The regiment left Its State exactly full, with 1,040 men. In the course ef its service it had killed In action 107 men, wounded, 430, dienl of wounds or in prison, 100. and it lost men who died of elisease or who were discharged by reason of disability. "As Its ranks were elepleted they were filled lth recruits from home, and altogether it had on Its rolls 1,JW7 men. And of that 2.0UÖ men there are now, forty-three years after the close of the war, 237 men still surviving. ' "It seems a surprising number, because If you step to consider you will see that the youngsters of the regiment, the hoys of, say, 10 years when they enlisted in '01, are now men 03 years old. The men who were 20 in '01. young men then, sure enough, must now be 73. To be sure, men who came out later would be younger. For instanco.th e boy of 10 who enlisted iu '04 would now be only U; but ti.ere are still living a goodly bunch of the men who enlisted In 'Gl, and many of them still hardy, vigorous, able men. "And how do you account for that? I should say by the character and quality of the men of which our regiment was composed. "Of course, r.very man that served in the army Is proud of his old regi- ; moot, and thinks it was the finest ever, nnd no doubt they all have reason for their pride; but emrs was certainly a good regiment. It was raised In Au- : gust nnd Septcnilerf '01, when the three months campaign was over and when the North had settled elown seriously to the prosecution of the war. It was enlisted for three j'ears, unless sooner dlscharge-d, and it is stating it temperately to say that Its ranks were filled with men of serious purpose, who knew what they, were about, and who enlisted from a sense of duty. "And what a fine lot of men they were! Coming from all the walks of! life, characteristic men of their native J

State, a whole regiment of men of Intelligence, quick to learn a soldier's duty, understanding fully the necessity for discipline and always obeying orders; a regiment that soon came to have the carriage of veterans; a regiment that stayed where it was put, nnd went where it was sent; a regiment whose own officers and men always regarded it with pride, and which was always likewise regarded by its brigade and division and corps commanders, a good old regiment. "And now, :.fter four years of servier, and forty-three years after the close of the war, there are still 237 of the old loys left. It is splendid to think of. "Many of the men who were older when they enlisted, men of 30 or 40 then, have gone, and there are no really young men among the survivors, and In the nature of things their ranks must grow thinner and thinner, but among them there are still hardy men, good for many years yet. And of the old regiment there still survive 237 men. A fine lot! "Glory be to the old regiment! I salute the old regiment !" Washington Post.

Only Library In the War. The only regiment in the service during the war that had a library was the Nineteenth Ohio infantry. Senator Manderson cf Nebraska, who commanded the regiment, t as written to Milton S. Lytle of Huntingdon, Pa., a history of that unique library collection. A volume belonging to this library fell into Mr. Lytle's hands during the Atlanta campaign of 1SG1. The books became scattered, and, it is believed, lost, except the one which Mr. Lytle rescued and preserved and brought home with him. This book Is a copy of Milton's poems, and has upon the Inside of the cover a label, which reads: "Library of the Nineteenth Ohio V. L, No. 20." The following Is Senator Manderson's Ietter giving the history of the library "I never knew of any other regiment in the army that had anything that approached a library for the use of the men of the command, and the way the regimental Itorary, so called, of the Nineteenth Ohio Infantry came Into existence was this: When I was lu com mand of the regiment I found great difficulty in stopping gambling among the men, and no amount, of punishment seemed to bring about the result desired. "We had an excellent chaplain, John B. Smith, who came to me one day and said he lelieved he could help me break up gambling, and I asked blm how. He said: 'If I had a pair of horses 01 mules, a light wagon, and a large tent, nnd was permitted to move ahead with the troops and not with the transportation train, and had the money to buj books, subscribe for periodicals, and purchase sets of checkers and chessr I could move wi'.Ti it n-ul have my tent in position for the use of the men at their camping place.' "I said to the chaplain: The idea is an excellent one, and I will make application for the use of a pair of mules; a light wagon, and a large hospital tent, for the purpose named." I made the application, which was favorabiv received by Gen. Itosecraus. command ing the army, and procured the wagon, mules and tent. The officers of the reg iment then subscribed several hundred dollar, the exact amount I have for gotten, and with It we bought books and subscribed for periodicals. From that time on until the activities of the Atlanta campaign forbade it. Chaplain Smith moved with the command, and would put up his tent, with conven iences for the men to write their letters, play chess, backgammon and checkers nnd read the periodicals and books that were carried along, which were also sometimes loaned to them tc rend in their tents. "It was an admirable affair and un questionably the book that you found is one of that library. What became of the books finally I do not know. Being wounded the 2d day of September 1804, I lost all track of the matter but I do know that the exigencies ol the campaign had deprived, us of the use of -the tent some time before." How. Doen .llo iror 'Enf? An old colored female one day ap proached Howard's column of Sher man's Georgia army and entering Into conversation expressed great surprise as to where they all came from. A wa? informed her that old Lincoln had a very productive field away up north where he raised them at the rate of a million it year. Turning up her white eyes In blank astonishment, she exclaimed : "For ele Lord's sake, you don't sat sol How does be grow 'em":" "Ob.," was the reply, "that is verj simple. He gathers up all the dead rcltels from the battlefields, plants tlicn: down in Massachusetts after a while they begin to sprout and the moment they see a chicken they make for It. when Lincoln's provost guard catcher them and drafts them into the army.' "Bless j'o, say so! And are you 'uns dead rebels?" replied the bewildered creature, completely transfixed to th spot where she stood. "No, we used to be, but we're now live Yankees. I'm Bishop Polk, whe pn-ached down here In Dixie." "Ie debil' you are!" exclaimed the now excited wench "and what are you doin' here? Come after Misset Bishop and de chilen?" "No, the children!" was the profane reply; "we've come to assist lr whaling out of Jeff Davis." "You'll hab to eotch him fust," was the quick response; "guess it's done gone Job." "Well, we'll see," said the soldier 1 "it's a race between us and the devil and maybe Old Nick will win the heat "Shouldn't wonder.

A shout, deep and loud, went up froir that column, and many a bronzed veteran lifted his hat ns he passed the sunny-haired child of bright and happj thoughts, resolving, if his good right arm availed anything, God's flag should conquer.

The century plant, so named because of the popular idea that It blooms bul once in a hundred years, In one sense makes good its name, for it blooms only once, then dies. In the genial climate of southern California it reaches maturity and bloom? in fifteen or twenty years, while in colder climates the period may range from forty to fifty years. There are many species of the Agave family, native to northern Mexico, where it Is called the Maguey. The plar!; furnishes "pulque," the national drink oi Mexico. At the time of blooming the plant throws up a single stock of rapid growth to the height of twelve to twenty feet, from which the tassel-like flowers sprout forth.
