FIELD AND FARM.
For and About Women.

Twenty-Five acres have been planted
in corn and seven acres in cotton by
Miss Kreamer, of Helena, Ark, she
having done the blowing herself and at
tended to the crop 80 far without help,
and expects tie harvest bale of cotton
to the acre, and 40 bushels of corn to the
same amount of land.
Mrs. Helen Young Bailey of New
Hampshire quotes the late Robert Ken
nicott, the naturalist, as having said to
lady who made bitter complaint of the
depreciation of the rose bug: "Itisgood
enough for you; you had all the snakes
killed." and she adds this item of per-
sonal experience: "a few years ago

and watchful intent on its own business

sunshine. In the hot summer time

we love those rooms best where the sun

American ladies may we'll take hint
from Mrs. Langtrv, the famous English
beauty, who said to newspaper inter-
viewer: "As the only sister of six stout
brothers. l shared their outdoor sports
in most boyish fashion," 1t was not
until some Yeas after her marriage to
Mr.. Langtry that she was introduced in
London society, so that all but a few
years of her life are covered in the fol-
lowing statement: my life in Jersey
had been spent almost entirely in the
open air, and as Mr.. Langtry was fond
of yachting. became an expert yachts.
woman, and was very fond of all sorts of
outdoor exercise"
A"girl gossip" in the London Truth
speaks of "the cultivated American with
his curious information, ill-fitting clothes,
and elaborate WAY of-paying conpli-
ments, instead of letting them fall acct
dental and irresistibly, as it were" and
reports the matrimonial market as fol-
lows: Marrying men at premium

Miss MILDLY Morgan is the stock re-
poster for New York paper. She is
noted for her little eccentricities in dress
and appearance. describing the more
fanciful elegancies of apparel in which
many ladies delight, she wears short
skirts, stout boots and garments of great
plainness of style. She is quite as con-
spicuous for her substantial common
sense as for her peculiarities of costume,
and no fop may make sport of her ex-

Sons of the Prince Of Wales.

Speculation is made in London as TO the
future destination of the Prince of Wales's
sons after their return to England. While
nothing very definite appears yet to be act
ually known, it is confidently affirmed that
Prince Albert Edward will in time join the
military school at Sandhurst, and that
Prince George will remain in the navy,
Prince George is much attached to a sea-
faring life, and is said to be better qualified
for it by physique than Prince Albert Ed

recently entertained at luncheon by the
Baron Ferdinand Rothschild, covers being

Suicide in Pope County.

Last spring farmer, Andrew Swenson,
in Ben Wade town, Pope county, was bound
over to await the action of the grand jury,
on a charge preferred against him by his son,
Andrew Anderson, for breaking into his
sons house with intent to commit a felon-
ious assault. Tuesday afternoon the grand
jury was charged by Judge McKelvy, but
the testimony was so slim that the jury last
night resolved to find no bill. While they
were considering his case, Swenson commit
ted suicide by hanging hims in the barn
of Mr.. Peck at Glenwood by halter. When
cut down his body was yet warm; but all the
efforts of the doctor failed TO revive him. 1t
is said Peck found him twenty minutes be-
fore, but failet to cut him down until NOTICE
had been given to the authorities. The Glen

New York Medical News.
At the recent commencement of the
Philadelphia College of Pharmacy, we
notice, with pleasure, that the junior
prize was awarded to Miss Grace Lee
Babb. of PASSPORT, Md. We learn that
there were two female students in the
college during the past session. 1t is
encouraging that 80 per cent. Of their
number took prizes.
OF all the many new avenues opened
of late to women for an honorable, ap-
propriate, and, it may be, a lucrative
occupation, we know of none that pro-
misses better results than that Of phar-
macy, and our only surprise is that
they have not taken it up long ago and
in large numbers Accuracy, neatness,
cleanliness, politeness, these are all the
requisites besides a knowledge of Phar-
macy. This last surelyno one will claim
is beyond the ability of the average wo-
man, while the former are perhaps more
peculiarly womanly virtues
Moreover, the experiment has been
tried, and tried with success. For a
number Of years the prescriptions at
st. Mary's Hospital, we learn, were
made up by the junior resident, but for
some years past they have been in the
entire charge Of one Of the sisters Of the
hospital. The order that came out Of
chaos, the cleanliness out Of uncleanli-
ness, the neatness out Of disorder, were
simply marvellous, while SO far as the
prescriptions are concerned, they are
better compounded than before, land
the expense from waste and mistakes,
and carelessness and ignorance, is
greatly lessened.

MalariaI Germs.

II. A. Laveran has found in the blood
of the patient suffering from malarial
poisoning, parasitic organism, very def
mite in form and most remarkable in
character; motionless, cylindrical curved
bodies, transparent and delicate out
lines, curved at extremities transparent
spherical forms provided with fine
filaments in rapid movements, which
be believes to be animalcules; and
spherical or irregular bodies, which
appeared to be the 'eadaveric" stage of
these, all marked with pigment granules.
He has also detected peculiar conditions
in the blood itself During the year that
has passed since he first discovered these
elements, NJ Laveran has examined
the blood in 1872 patients affected with
various symptoms of malarial diseases,
and has found the organism In $50 of
them, and he has convinced himself by
numerous and repeated observations
that they are not found in the blood of
persons suffering from diseases that are
not of malarial origin. In general the
parasitic bodies were found in the blood
only at CERTAIN times, a little before and
at the moment of the accession of the
fever; and they rapidly disappeared IN
der the influence of quinine treatment.
The addition of minute quantity of q
diluted solution of snlphate ofquinine to
a drop of blood suffieed to destroy the
organism. M. Laveran believes that
the absence of the organism in most OF
the cases (only II in the whole 1922 in
which he failed to find them vas due to
the patients having undergone course
of treatment with quinine.

Salt on Land.

Says the Massachusetts, Agricultural
Society,": Salt has the property Of has
tenins The maturing of all grain crops
that wheat on sailed land will ripen six
to ten days earlier than on unsalted
land, all other conditions being equal
that it increases the yield from Is to so
per cent; that it stifens the straw and
prevents rust and smut; that it checks,
if it does not entirely prevent, the
ravages of the chinch bug, and that
there is danger of mans pocket
permitting him to put too much salt on
his land, as two bushels per acre will
insure no grain crop. Says the n. Y.
Herald: Sow salt broadcast, from two
to six bushels per acre. 1t is said to
prevent rust almost invariably. Being
an excellent fertilizer, it is worth
trial. Says l.. H., in American Agri-
culturist: While on some soils, salt pro-
duces no apparent results, on Others it
is of marked benefit. It's utility can only
be learned by experiment. 1t often has
an indirect action in enabling the plant
to take up silica, and it strengthens the
straw. IT'S effect in preventing the
growth ofthose minute fungi which caus-
es rust and smut is sometimes benefci-
al. After cold winter has put stop to
the growth of the plant, salt sown at
the rate Of Ave or six bushels to the
acre often increases the health of the
plant, and improves the appearance of
the plant.
4 farmer friend of mine sowed two
bushels of salt per acre on his wheat
two years ago, and harvested three
bushels to his neighbors one. They
ridiculed his sowing salt, but when it
saved his crop from rust and smut they
were ready to praise. Theirs suffered
terribly from both these troubles. Their
fields were near together my friends
wheat was of prime quality. One BUSH
ell of salt per acre has been known to de-
stroy every insect on the acre.
Now, salt is not strictly a fertilizer,
but has mechanical action ON the
soil. 1t brings out all the powers of
the land, stimulates it to do its best.
1t loosens and disintegrates it, thus
opening it up. 1t awakes all It's latent :;
