Gettinc Rid of TMitch Grass.

| find the best way to get rid of this
grass is the most thorough way, where
it pays to fight it vigorously, as in a
garden-upon the farm, where it COM
petes with farm crops, a more pro-
longed fighting may be allowable. But
wherever there is much of hand labor,
we must rid ourselves speedily of this
grass, and the thorough and efficient
course to this is to make the land
abundantly mellow as deep as the roots
extend, using such implements as will
not break the roots, and then TO fork
out the plant, root and blade, or pull
them up by hand. Never break a
twitch grass from the stem. Let the
whole plant come out together, 50 that
no fragments may be left to grow and
again ill the soil. Go over the land
few times, and wherever a blade
shows itself, extract the whole plant,
and you conquer, or at least let me say
| conquer when / Will, and in no other
way so cheaply. The time is best
when the soil is dry, for then it is most
light and mellow and when the sun
shines hot, so that the spread out
plants quickly wither and lose their
life. Then they need not be raked up
and taken off at once, for their life is
gone from them, and neither the damp
day nor summer shower succeeding,
will set them to growing. But cheap
ness there is none where twitch grass
is. 1t is an expensive enemy 10 battle
with, at best. ! will note, however, a
very cheap way of getting the grass
distributed over the farm, and il is the
way other kinds of grass, not desir.
able. can be increased. To save the
purchase of seed TO pat upon bare
spots, where the grass seems winter
killed, sweep the barn floor until
enough seed is collected for the pur.
pose. ! have not done this but from
the distribution of the grass upon my
farm ut the time came. TO il, can
but believe this economy had been
practiced. Now think of IL, there
are many things have not done, but
they are not always such happy es-
capcs from blunders. Cor. Scientific

This obnoxious grass is becoming
plenty in the northwest. If the proper
care is not observed it will be as
troublesome as the wild buckwheat.

Wore Turco.Serylan War Renorts.

A dispatch from Belgrade of the
5oth, says the keenest anxiety is felt to hear
Of an armistice. Every day increases the
danger Of the war spreading. The Servian
army is fast becoming Russian auxiliary
force, fighting on Servian soil. Russians are
exposing themselves in the brunt Of the bat
tie with remarkable valor. Out ofsixty-eight
who fought as a company at Alexinatz, thirty
were lett dead on the field The Servians are
becoming jealous and afraid OF the Russians
They feel the control Of the army slipping
from their hands, and will joylully accept
peace il it can be obtained on good terms.
The seven days fight before Alexinatz has
been greatly exaggerated. II is estimated
the Servians' entire loss is only a few hum
bred killed and about $500 wounded. No
lists OF killed and wounded have been pub
lished here since the beginning OF the war.

1 Train In Collision with Elephants.

4 Train in Collision with Elephants.
On the railway from Madras t" Shoranore,
aS train was running at q fair speed, the
engineer saw herd Of elephants approach
Ing him along the line. He whistled down
the brake. In an instant, however, they
were into the herd q The leading elephant,
ap enormous tusker, was apparently only
epraged by the whistle, and charged the ad-
vancing train. There was tremendous
concussion. The elephant was knocked of
To one side, mutilated and writhing, and the
train, after series of jolts that nearly
threw II OF the line, came to stand still
against the bodies of two other animals of
the herd. The tusker was despatched by an
English gentleman who was travelling In
the train, and his tusks were secured, after
which the train proceeded on It's journey.
The herd scamped away, and turned when
about mile off, on q knoll, looking in :
dazed, stupid way at the train as 1t moved

The Poetry Of Throttle valve.

Not long ago an engineer brought his
train to stand at . little Massachusetts VII
lsge where the passangs have five minutes
for lunch. Alady came along the platform
and said: ttThe conductor tells me the train
ct the junction in P. leaves fifteen minutes
before our arrival. It is Saturday night,
that ID the last train. i have my sick child
id the car, and no money for hotel and
none for private conveyance long, long

shall I dot"

tell you"

TssNo, / have the timetable, and must

She turned sorr owfully away, leaving the
bronzed face of tho engineeriwet with tears.
Presently she returned and said, "Are you
Christian'"
~ trust am" was the reply.
"Will you pray with me that the LORD
may in some way delay the train at the juno
tiona" 8.&
"why yes, wiz pray with you, but I
have not much faith"
'Just Chen the conductor cried All aboard
The poor woman hurried back to tho de-

train.

rity, the conductors lantern was In the air

Once over the summit It was dreadful easy
to give her lite more, as prayed, TIL she
seemed to shoot through the air like an ar
row, Some how couldn't hold her, know
ine We had the road ,snd so we dashed up to
the junction six minutes ahead OF time"
There stood the other train, and the con.
ductor with his lantern on his arm. "WeiP'

Grange Cooperation.

The Patrons of Husbandry made
their first attempt at cooperation in
business in Iowa. This was in 1873.
A State agent was appointed and
placed under $4,000 bonds for the
faithful performance of his duty.
County agents were also appointed in
many quarters to cooperate with the
State agent. The first contract was
for plows, which had been selling at
S22,a $3.50 direct from the ma nufac-
turers, and all parties were much
pleased with the result; and soon 9TH
er manufacturers and wholesale deal
ers were ready to deal direct with the
consumer. Now Patrons in most of
the States are doing large and sue
cessful business. The Patron of the
northwest produces wheat, oats, corn,
butter, ETC., and he wants to exchange
the products for sugar, coffee, rice,
cotton, and other southern produc-
tions, and he wants TO make the ex-
change with the least expense possible
and consequently with the least posi-
BILE handling. Now if he can ship his
produce to New Orleans to an agent
who is under bonds, and have the pro-
ducts of that part of the country ship
ped back in like manner. will he not
receive more for a bushel than he
would if each had to be handled over?
The same may be said of other articles,
of agricultural implements.
A plow or reaper does not increase in
value by passing through different
rather increases in price
each and every time.-Er.

Take Time to Think.

The progress which farmers have
made since the advent of the order of
the Patrons of Husbandry, has been of
the most marked character. The in
formation that has been gained in re-
gard TO the cost of the production of
the various kinds of machinery used
on the farm, has resulted in the saving
of large per cent. that has heretofore
gone into the pockets of middlemen,
instead of into those of the farmers.
Among other things which now de-
mand attention of the farmer, is the
cost of producing each article raised
on the farm, that is designed for mar
ket or home use. Not only this, we
should aim 10 ascertain the actual cost
of everything we wear. The farmer
can and should be able to say to the
consumer of his products: 'The
standard cost price of each Of the pro-
ducts we offer you, is based on the le-
gal rate of interest for capital en-
ployed, labor performed, existing rate
of taxation, both local, State and Ma
tional, with reasonable allowance for
the wear and tear of the things neces-
sary to carry on the business" We
must come to this sooner or later; I'M
til we do, we shall continue to grope
about in the dark, and be led by the
spectators in our products.
To accomplish any reform of this
kind, we must not let others do all the
thinking aud planning. We must
think and act for ourselves. 1t is a
principle of the Grange organization,
that portion of each farmers time
shall be devoted TO the thoughtful ex-
animation of the various details of his
business, in order that he may devise
ways and means, in conjunction with
other members of the Grange, of max |
ing farming self-sustaining This
much-nceded reform, which will tend |
to make those following the pillow
practically-not theoretically
pendent, can only be brought about by
taking time to think.-Rural World.
