LAsas w. SMALL CRoPs.-The liner
icam Cnlticator says that above all
things else it is necessary that there be
q general understanding that large
drops are always pr0portionately more
profitable than small crops; that within
certain limits q given amount OF pro
ducts may 10 grown more cheaply on
five acres than on ten. When this fact
IL properly appreciated, the popular
ufaze to SECURE more land will be absted,
and better culture of fewer acres will
take the place Of the present system Of
half tillage over large areas. In gen
eral way farmers do understand this po-
sition; they recognize tho fact that
small Drops arc generally Improbable
crops, that it costs money to pillow. plan.
and till An acre in any crop. and even il
the farmer Ind his sous do the work il
sh0uld mono the less be paid for just the
same as il il were performed by hired
labor. The farmer should DO able 10
earn and secure better wages than the
average hired help, az he has presuma-
bly, more knowledge and skill than
most Of those he employs. II he can
not earn good wages for his own work
something is decidedly wrong in bis
makeup or his surroundings.

The Rev. DR.. Carpenter. Of England,
tells good story about the preparation
Of the matter for great encyclopedia
several years ago:
"The Dslues" was ono Of the topics to
b described - speciality, and 1t was
assigned to an eminent scientific man.
He treated the theme with all the free
dom of modern science, and the fovisers
found the article 30 far out Of the Or
thodox range of opinion that they feared
To use it. Announcement was thore
fore made that description Of tho del
uge would be found under the heading
"Noah," to be issued later on. The sab
jet was thsn sniansd to another writer.
Bot he, too, was Of scientific leanin2s,
and his remarks on Noah and the del
uge we're too bold and FREQ for the Con-
mittee on Revision, and we're quietly
discarded. A second announcement
vas made that the long sxpsoted say
ON tho deiuge and Noah would be ON
braced under q later heading, and meas
ures were taken that the subject should
be treated this time in dull, orthodox
and untrue, bat eminently safe, manner.
But tho third essay was no more salts
factory than IT. predecessors; for the
writer, despite all the instruction and
caution he had received from the Re-
vision Committee, inaistsd upon being
original and new. Four attempts in
all were thus mado to have the theme
written up from the Committees stand
point, but without success. Finally the
encyclopedia came out without ono

Romance on Nhinbonrd.

In her charming book; European
Breezes," Marie J. Pittm an (Margery
Desnc) ro'ates the following.
Every ship has It's romance. You
feel that your fellow passengers are
bound to contribute to your enter
tainment and amusement, aud there.
fore you have no scruples or compunc.
tons at watching any love-making
going on. Who was to blame wher,
sitting idly on the deck one night, We
heard above the noise Of the screw
this deliciously frank avowal, made by
young German to an American girl,
possessed possibly Of fascination rather
than positive beauty? "Mein Liebling,
| thought me never | could lofe one
Madschen who is not beautiful; but |
lofe you" Is it so they make leve in
the Vaterland?
But coming home we had a genuine
romance on board. Among the pas
seDgers was demur little German
maiden. veritable Gretchen, with
her blonde tresses Ia Marguerite. She
knew not word of English, and was
with her aunt, also a German, but
whose home was in America This
aunt, growing confidential. told us
soon after starting, that she was bring
ing her neice to America for year, at
the request Of her parents. who wished
her to forget lover upon whom her
heart was set, but Of whom they did
not approve because Of his lack Of
wealth and title. The aunt bad never
seen this lover, and could not describe
him TO us; but she evidently meant to
do her duty and fulfill her trust. Now,
this maiden, with her fair little
mouth, reserved and silent, did not
look as Wretched as she ought to have
done under such circumstances: but
we concluded it was because Of her
nationality. She had our sympathy.
There was a man, tall and stern and
scholarly, among us, whose English
was broken, and who showed little
disposition to be social, till on the
third day, when the purgatory Of the
mel de mer being safely through, he
begged the aunt to present him to the
little Fraulein. This she did readily,
and the acquaintance ripened into an
intimacy. This pleased the aunt, who
con6ded in us, and said that she was
happy that her charge was willing to
be entertained, and was so readily for
getting the old love. The couple took
possession of the cosiest places day
and evening, and if you approached
too near you hear him reading aloud
always from the same page) and she
demurely listening. When we reached
New York the tail, dark man took the
wee blonde by the hand and led her 10
her aunt and said: II am -. the
lover from whom you fed, and from
whom nobody can take the little
