THE COURTS.

Friday could hardly be called a field day in
the Court House, tor there was nothing of the
pomp and panoply of war about the few cases
on trial. Attorneys, enervated by the weather,
pursued their cross-examinations in the
blandest tones. and the judge listened with
almost meekness to the quiet remarks of op-
posing counsel.

Hon. Frank P. Blair, Superintendent Insurance De-
partment:

As required by section Of the Act OF March 20,
1874 for the purpose of making this examination the

the American Experience table.
The loans Of the Association, secured by deeds Of
trust or mortgage on real estate, amounting to 81?
2O1 SIS ST. have been carefully examines one by one
and close scrutiny made into the title and value Of
each; and in cases of doubt Of the suciency of the
security inquiries were made OF parties not con-
nected with the Association. Loans to the amount
of 7O5 81 have net been admitted, because of de-
fective security The remainder, 81 172 TO- is in
my opinion satisfactorily secured. The policies Of
insure nee ON peIishable Improvements were exam
med in every instance to that the policies were
in force and made payable to the Association in the
event of loss.

erals ple6 ged for the payment of $i36 1913 o. amount

each loan.
In the amount of premium notes and loans, $685.

serve has been included, nor any policies not in

made for supposed value over cost.
The amount of stocks and bonds owned, is $780,

April 1875 as closely it was possible to ascertain
it. The stated amount includes $40 900 of Missouri
bonds, and ST. 1875 in United States bonds.
The amounts of cash on hand and on deposit at
Departments s71,996 80 and of interest and rents
accrued sss 1854 81, were fully verified. The accrued

puted in this Office.

miums, aggregating S3s6677 SO, were ascertaned by
an actual examination of the Associations books and

Limit Your Wants.

From the nature of things, the income
of most of the inhabitants of the earth
must be limited, and indeed within very
narrow bounds. The product of labor
throughout the world, if equally divided
would not make the share of each indi-
vidual large. 1t is impossible that every
one should be what is called rich. But
il is by no means impossible to be indie
pendent. And what Is the way to COM
pass this-as Burns appropriately desig-
mates it-.glorious privilege:" This
method is very simple. 1t consists in
one rule: Limit your wants. Make
them few and inexpensive. To do this
would interfere but little with your real
enjoyment. Ii is mostly matter OF
habit. You require more, or you are
satisfied with less, just as you have ac-
customed yourself to the one or the
other. Limit your wants, estimate their
cost, and never exceed it, taking pains
always to keep it inside of your income.
Thus you will secure your lasting indie
pendence. Young men, think of this.
A great deal of the happiness of your
lives depends upon it. After having
made your money, spend it as you choose
honestly; but be sure you make it first.

To Asia, and probably India, where
wild chickens yet abound under the
designation of jungle fowl, the English
owe their domestic poultry. The dis
tribution of this useful bird is indeed
strangely irregular. Throughout the
negro kingdoms of West Africa, for in
stance, fowls are plentiful, while in
more civilized Abyssinia and Arabia
they are comparatively scarce. Persia
abounds in poultry, while in Turkey
few domestic birds except the sacred
pigeons are to be seen. To Asia, too,
belong the fallow deer and the gorgeous
peacock, while to her, also, we owe all
our vegetables, with the brilliant eX-
ception of the potato. 1t is impossible
to conceive the poverty, so far As vege-
tables were concerned, of the England
that passed under the sway of Norman
and Angevia kings. Some hardy varie-
ties of the cabbage did indeed exist, and
were supplemented by long-forgotten
herbs. which have since been deemed
only suitable to the rabbit hutch. The
peas and beans brought in by returning
Crusaders were presently eked out by
carrots; but down to the reign of Eliza
beth the garden yielded little tribute to
the kitchen in Britain.

HRICULTURAL

The ctgqr Beet-It is curious fact
that in the newly settled portions of our
country few roots are grown for stock
feeding. while in the older portions and
i'm Europe they are almost universally
grown. We are, of course, aware of
the reasons given for not growing them
on new farms, but we really think these
reasons are not sound. and believe that
every farmer who keeps COWS, oxen, or
horses and sheep would find it very
profitable to raise some roots to feed
along through winter and spring.
Animals confined TO yards and stables
and dry food, relish green, succulent
food.
In Europe the sugar beet appears TO
he displacing the tlIrnip for cattle food.
In the London agricultural Gazette a
writer says that many a Continental
farmer considers crop Of sugar beets
far better and more profitable than any
other root crop. 1t furnishes more nu-
tritious substances, does not exhaust the
land, may be grown on fallOw, and by
good cultivation and judicious manur-
ing yields as much as any other root.
The sugar beet is not inclined to get
hollow in the top, does not suffer so
much from the frost and keeps better
in stocks.
The white Siiesian beet is best, being
the richest in sugar, and grows mostly
under ground. The seed is sown in
April or May, sixteen to eighteen
pounds to the acre, in rows eighteen
inches apart. As soon as the plants ap-
pear a careful hoeing must be given;
afterward they are thinned out, and
then the cultivator is kept going as
often as necessary TO keep the ground
clear and mellow. Rotten farm-yard
manure is used if it can be had, if not
guano, superphosphates and potash
salts. Stimulating manures are not
good for sugar beets.

About the Eye.

To those who can read Alright, the eye
is wonderfully expressive. Fulness of
the eye, causing bullying of the lower
eyelid, is the well-known sign of Ian
guage. Persons with this sign large
have not only speaking eye, but also Il
speaking tongue: whereof their fellows
do not long remain i'm ignorance. n
general projection of fulness Of the eye
above and below, which brings the eye
ball forward on u line with the face and
eyebrow, denotes the quality of physical
perception, or the capacity TO see quickly
whatever appears upon the surface of
things. \ person with such an ey9, ON
entering a room for the first time, would
note rapidly the shape, size arrangement.
and general appearance of the different
articles of furniture in it, the color Of
the walls, curtains, etc.; take i'm with
equal facility the features, the color of
eyes and hair, size, and appearance of
any person who might be present. In
looking at picture such person would
at once incline to examine the details Of
color, number, grouping, attitude, and
costume of the figures composing it.

Charcoal for Poultry.-Fowls of all
kinds are very fond of charcoal. and
will eat it with great relish if properly
prepared. Pounded charcoal is not in
the shape in which fowls usually find
their food, and consequently is not very
enticing to them. To please their pal
ate, the charcoal should be in pieces of
about the size of grains of corn, and if
these are strewed around their quarters
they will readily eat thereof. Corn
burnt on the cob, and the refuse
(Which consists almost entirely of the
grains reduced to charcoal, and still re-
tanning their perfect shape,) placed be-
fore them, makes a marked improve
ment in their health, As is shown by the
brighter color of their combs, and their
sooner producing greater average of
eggs TO the flock than before.
