It was the lirst week of May when I got my tent pitched, but the farmers all around had finished putting in their crops, so I only got fifteen acres brok ami seeded. They advised me. as it was late, not to put in much wheat, ao I put in five acres wheat and ten acres oats, one-half acre potatoes and vegetables. All kinds of vegetables grow well np there sweet corn, tomatoes, onions, carrots, peas, beans, cabbage. My wheat yielded alout 20 bushels per acre, for which I got 7". cents, others got 80 cents; oats threshed .1." bushels per acre, for which I got 35 cents per bushel.

Dairy (Jlpsnins. There is no reasonable oxeuse for & flairynmn to use a scrub bull from year to year when pure-bred lulls can bo t'ought for little more than bref prices. M.my g"o,l cows tire ruined by hoing" fed too highly (-iiee;itr;.tMl foods rieh in nitrogei!. The city milk dairies are gnat maelsiron-s which are continually drawing the liest cows of the country to premature slaughter. No fow can stand up under forced feed ins, for a long time without being Injured. It is more of th? home-grown ftnreh foods that cows ncctl-and less chiton, brewers grains and cottonseed meal. We must provide the cows with ample exercise in the yards, even though it is done at a sa-rili-e of production 2t the pail. Many dairymen have had these facts forced home to them by such diseases and lowered vitality as are coinaion in some of the highly punpei-ed herds of pure-bred dairy cattle. Water basins by the side of each cow arc a line thing, hut when they arc used as an excuse for not turning the cows out to exercise for at least an hour cadi flay, tlioy are not to be recommended to a dairyman. The dairyman who proposes to make that business his principal iv-cupation should make plans to breed aud grow his own cows. Fy doing this he does not take the risks of Introducing tuberculosis and contagious abortion Into his herd. It is Indeed unfortunate that sc many dairymen deiK-nd upon purchased cows for use hi their dairies. The rood, olI-fa?hioncil way whore the cows were bred and raistd on the farm was not so bad after all. No other form of animal life will afford nutriment more cheaply or better adapted to the needs of the average individual than the cow. A .nr Cattle I'lnsne. Apthous, or foot-and-mouth disease, as It is popularly known, has broken out among live stock in New York aad Pennsylvania. Comparatively little is inown of the malady In this section, but by reports from the infested disritcts. It is even more to be dreaded than tuberculosis, lumpy jaw, and the Dther disc-IMS winch have in the past cropped out In Western herds. It Is aot restricted to neat cattle, sheep and swine being subject to It ; and even huanm lyings are not Immune. It is said that several children in Pennsylvania ire now alflietod with it. Virulently infectious, it yields to no known specific ind the rate of mortality in the more evere forms of the distemper is from 1Ö b 20 per tent. It c:n be combated flfectively only through disinfection nd quarantine. That is to s: y, while the disease itself is Incurable, its spread may lo prevented through the ordinary precautions in such cases. One of the most disquieting aspects )f the situation is the fact that milk from cows suffering from the disease ;ven slightly, is highly infectious. Often in the early stages of the sickness the animal shows no outward symptoms risible to the unskilled eye, so Infectious milk may be sold even by hnn?st dairymen. The National and State Departments Df Agriculture are doing their best to prevent the spread of the disease. Foth states have been quarantined, and steps have been taken to disinfect the "centers' as fast as they manifest themselves. No railroad car or boat used in tbe transportation of 'live Stock within the affected area may be moved until disinfected under government supervision. Time was when Mich measures were not possible, end for much of the good that Is done toward preventing the spread of this mainly there is gratitude due the wise minds that provided for the state and national bureaus of agriculture and animal industry.

The agrk'ultu'al colleges and experiment stations are accomplishing a great work foi agriculture and live stock industry hy encouraging hotter breeding of animals and plants. ThJ importance of the farm to national prosperity was recognized in the en: dowmont of agricultural universities and the establishment of the Department of Agriculture, with the secretary a member of Nie President's cabinet. The farming interests of the country depend on these institutions of learning to blaze the way to scientific improvement hi husbandry. Farmers have lost their prejudice against scientific husbandry in thj achievements of the agricultural colleges in nearly nil departments of plant and animal industry. If greater, profits are realized in animal luisl amlry it is because farmers are p.iyim; more attention to better breeding and early maturity of live stock. Fruit and cereals increase in yields per acre because better seed is used in the production of the crop. A decade ago there were no corn expositions and improved seed brooding was a subject considered by a few progressive farmers. To-day corn breeding, with a view of Improving its quality and yield, has become as prominent in husbandry as improving animal Industry. When $1.000 is awarded for the best exhibit of six ears at a corn exposition, it means that agriculture recognizes the importance of i:nproved plant breeding. Scientists announce that the principal laws of breeding plant and animal life are homogeneous that the principles which will improve animals will also Increase the quality of plants when methodically npplied. There Is at intervals spontaneous improved production by nature of animal or plant life. If one inspects the products of nature In plants and animals ho discovers a wide variation in the same species. One animal Is of greatir beauty of conformation than its pr rents' or Immediate relatives, and these more symmetrical specimens are selected for breeding purposes. In animal husbandry a great specimen is produced that becomes the ancestor of an improved breed. Itysdyk's Ilambletoninn is the primogenitor of the American trotter, and hy methodical selections and improved breeding the trotter has reduced the harness record to 1 :5SV1. The Shorthorn traces back to the Duke of Airdrle and the English thoroughbred to the Darley and Godolphin Arab sires. To improve the breeding of animals and plants the best specimens should Ik? reserved for seed and breeding purposes. Goodall's Farmer. Ilalldlnir Up Worn-Oat Soil. Probably the most rapid way to build ap a worn-out soil, when barnyard manure is not plentiful, is to give it a course of treatment, such as described; then grow only forage crops, buy grain to feed with them, and return all the manure thus prodw-od to the laud. Dairy fanning permits such a system to I followed, and'no other type of farming builds up laud so quickly. Prof. Yi. J. Spillman, agriculturist, in charge of farm management investigations. United States IJureau of Plant Industries, says another type that gives quick results is to grow j: succession of pasture crops for hog.-;, keep the hogs on these pastures, and feed them a fourth to a half ration of grain. In middle latitudes the following system is adapted to this tyrie of farming: ('row corn enough for the pigs on part of the farm, sowing either cow peas or crimson clover or rye in the corn yearly, to keep up fertility. The two latter crops furnish winter pasture for the pigs. On the remainder of the farm run the following, three: year riticn; Sow oats in early spring; follow by rye early in August; follow this by sorghum the following spring; in September or Octoher sow rye again, after the sorghum; late the next spring sow either sorghum or crw peas, and begin over ngain with o:its the succeeding spring. This may lie made a four-year rotation by inserting artichokes or sweet or Irish potatoes between the Augustsown rye ami the sorghum. If these crops are all pa stur I down, the hogsbeing fed a little grain meanwhile, the soil will Improve. With such a system, at least on clay soils, the hogs must not be allowed on the fields when the soil Is wet. as they will puddle It to such an extent as to do serious injury. To avoid this diflieulty there should be an additional field of good sod for the hogs to run on in wet weather. In sections where alfalfa thrives hogs may be pastured on this crop in summer, and fed a little corn. In winter such crops as rape and kale may take the place of the alfalfa, and the grain feed may thus 1k lucre: shI. Such a system takes nothing from the land, but care must be used not to puddle the soil by riasturlng in wet weather. The? SI III, Small Voire.

THE ADAM OF ZULULAND.

Anioe lipsrnd (ilve III Jaiie an i the "Old-Old-One.' Xow that so much attention is directed toward the situation in Natal many readers will lie interested to know that tin- Zulus are a race of ancestor worshipers, who believe in the transmigration of souls from the human body to snakes. A warlike, romantic and picturesiue race, their theory of the creation is quaintness itself. Their tribal legends presume the existence of the first man. known as FnkulmiUulu (the OKI -old-one), and of him they say: "We no longer know him. We do not know his wife, and the ancients do not tell us that he had a wife. This primeval Zulu is credited with having broken off the nations of the universe from a reed, which typifies the source of Indng. The Fthlanga or reed really represents a father from whom the children are broker off. Their explanation of what "brought death into, the world and all its wot?" is weird and intensely interesting. I'nkuhuikulu sent this message by the chameleon; "C5o. chameleon, go and say: Let not men die!" This chameleon accordingly set forth, hut unfortunately it loitered ou the way and ate the fatal purple fruit rf Fimkwebezane. Then the Old-old-on" dispatches a lizard after the chameleon. The I'zard ran exceedingly fast and made great haste, for it bore the message, "Let men die!'' And it accomplished its mission and returned to the Old-old-one before the chameleon reached its destination and shouted: "Let not men die!" It was too late, frr men answered : "Oh, we have hoard the word of the lizard, and through Us word men will die." To this day the Zulus entert lin a profound dislike for the; chameleon. It Is killed whenever seen and used as a medicine. Among other things tae maize gardens are doctored with it tc keep the birds from spoiling the corn. The chameleon may be an object of disike.but the lizard is loathed and detest?d. and when Zulus kill it they shout: "This is the very piece of deformity which ran in the beginning to say that men should die!"' London Standard. CHEAP CREDIT F0S WORKERS. Xo Keanon "Wliy Wane Karnfr Shouldn't Org;nnIe for .It. American wage earners and small producerc have formed" unions for the protection of wages, for sick and death benefits aixl for many other purposes, but not as yet, to any extent, for the loaning of money to one another. Those who are able to save have to put their money In savings banks, where it is practically unavailable to those of their associates who need to borrow. Xor is it any reflection on the savings banks that this should be so, for they are Iierforming their particular function with remarkable success aud lidelity, Collier's Weekly says. In Europe, however, for fifty years unions for savings and credit have been authorI.d by law, and In some of the countries have had a marvelous growth. Through the medium of these banks an avenue of credit has been opened to persons to whom credit was formerly Inaccessible. The credit Is purely cooperative, offered directly (though impersonally) from one to another, without the Intervention of any outside stockholder or middleman to take his profit from the transaction, and without nny of the degradation and embarrassment connected with borrowing from an individual. Then? beiag no middleman, it is also cheap credit, and this Is essential, for the aim of co-oieratlve -banking Is to make the rates for loans as low as may be done consistently with earning a fair dividend for their shareholders, many of frliom are also borrowers. Co-operative credit may also te said to be friendly credit. Most of the members are strangers to the managers of the banks of discount and hesitate to have transactions with them. Hut at their own cooperative bank they feel at home. They are among friends who are interested in them, and their relations with the hank are of an entirely different kind from any relation which could exist between, them and the ordinary bank of discount. CRUEL EFFECTS OF GOSSIP. Flr-it Started by Women but I-nter Amtlitted I- Men. There never was a time, since Sheridan wrote his immortal "School for Scandal," when gossip was more the order of the social day than at the present time. Those quiet women are always the tvorst. Deiend upon It, we don't know all," whispers Mrs. Archer to a friend at i tea party. The very superiority and flawtessness of that particular quiet woman adds to the offense her neighbor finds In her. Presently she finds herself caught In the cruel net of woman gossip. And for the very reason that there Is no foundation for the stories told of her. denial and explanations are the more difiicult. Put is it only women who talk gos sip, spread scandals and take up old tales of "very suspicious circumstances, my dear," etc? Men. too. are a good deal to Manic In this direction. At least they have become so since men and women mixed together so incessantly as they do today. Men's lives used to be led more as things apart from feminine existence. Then they used to "let the women light out their scandals and gossip among themselves." Nowadays the soulal lives of both sexes are so intimate that the men lind themselves drawn into the maelstrom. First they despise the smallness and spitefulness of it all, then they endure and finally embrace the tents of tittle-a-tattle. And some of them, slowly but surely, degenerate into that meanest among the products of civilization the man gossip. Hut It is the woman gossip who first Inoculates man with the virus of scandal. Once the germ enters the temperament, whether masculine or feminine, like ku ill -weed, it grows apace. And the habit of disparaging our neighbor and his wife once acquired, is as hard to overcome as i? the drink craze or the craving for morphia. Few among us have the courage to avoid the professional scandal monger as one would fly from a mad dog. Yet the one Is Just as harmful to the community as the other, though there are, of course, varying degrees of the disease. Times-Union. No man ever fell In love with a suffmgist.
