This was nothing less than running a
deep, wide ditch 100 leagues long across
the pampas north, east, and southwest
AS q protection against the Indians. II
was found that the Indians could pass
over II without much trouble, and people
laughed at Alsina's ditch; but it was also
discovered that the Indians could not

FORMS OF NERVOUS EXHAUSTION
Results OF Ovcrwork and worry-Nari"".
SYinntoms of Danger.

Symptoms OF Danger.
The very worst forms of nervous exhaus-
ton are brought on slowly. The brain
becomes unconscious, dcadened, TO the
sense OF tiredness that is first experienced
from over exertion, and does not notice
that its powers are gradually being used
up. Work tina is lone without emotional
excitement is much less liable to bring
about this condition than that which Is
accomplished by an exaltation of the feel
ings. Hence the stock-gambler, the
dealer In futures, etc, are the ones
who furnish some of the worst cases
of this sort. Speculation, no matt.r with
what II deals, may not call for much
mental or physical work, but the emo
tional excitement is tremendous, and II ~
this that causes nervous exhaustion. Al
formations of strong emotions are espcci
ally injurious.
Calm intellectual work does little harm,
even if prolonged, provided sufficient food
is taken into the blood and enough sleep Is
had. But all intellectual workers do more
or less of their labor under some excite
ment. This latter Is what does most OF the
damage. Some can work only by fits and
starts, and still manage to accomplish n
great deal within n given time. Others are,
by nature, p~lodding workers, who are capa-

oNysmal workers, the notes OF warning
that too much Is being don't are about the
same. A few of the more important OF
these indications will be given; a full dis
cussion OF all of them would require more
space than can be devoted to them at this
time.
One of the first to be noticed Is exces-
sive irritability or nervousness. The least
discord or unnecessary effort is painful to
the er-wrought nerves. This indicates
no very dangerous state of affairs, for the
moreProfound disturbances benumb the
Drain, and such trivial matters pass with
out notice. Headache is another symp-
tom of the same sort. Both OF these drive
the patient to seek the rest he needs and
thus act as pre- ventives of the more seri'
GUS mischief. Unpleasant sensations in
the head, lot headache, are OF far more
serious moment. These are n feeling OF
weight on the top OF the head; sensation ms
of IA band COMPRISING the forehead, or an
indescribable sense of distress that Is nj
most uncomfortable, although not de-
scribcd IA an "ache. These, following long
continued effort OF the mind, with or with.
ont excitement, should always receive at
tention. They showed that the danger-line
had been reached. Obstin ate wakefulness
is something hat urgently demands med
cal advice. 1t is the most ommon pre-
cursor Of insanity.

The Proper way to Lick Stamp.

THE average ingenuity of the human fam

office, must DO very small Why, there is
not one person in 800 who has gumption
enough to put stamp on a letter. / see the
process gone through with about thousand
times day, and | ought to know All the
people at my window begin by putting the
stamps into their mouths, closing their
mouths, rolling their eyes like a man trying
to swallow a pill, and moving the stamps
around in their mouths until they are per-
fectly saturated with saliva. They then lay
them on the corner of their envelopes and
bring their clenched fists down on them like
a pile-driver, Then comes the profanity
See here, clerk, they say, this stamp is no
account Won't you please put a little
muscilage on itl So strange that they can't
put enough mucilage on the stamps to make
them stick
Now, the trouble is that these people lick
and chew all the gum off the stamp be-
fore they try to affix it, and if the gum were
an inch thick, ii would meet with the same
fate. The way to put stamp on is to moisten
the gum very slightly, and then lay it on the
envelope, and with the end of the forefnger
slip it back and forwards once or twice until
the saliva and gum are mixed. have been
licking stamps for forty years, but have
never yet met with one which would not

Farm Hints for March.

Farm work in March is more depen-
dent upon the weather and climate
than that of any other month, and al
though our southern readers will be
well forwarded with their spring grain
sown, before the month comes in,
whether it comes 'like lion,' or '.like
a lamb, we of the frigid North may
have still three feet of frost in the
ground, and perhaps good sleighing up
to the twenty fifth, north-easters last
ing week, spring floods, and roads
which neither horses feet nor wagon
wheels can find bottom in, may be the
order of the day. So hints about work
must be taken with liberal allowance
for the waywardness of this first spring
and last winter month.
New seeds and new tools should not
be lost sight of, and it will often pay
to test the former in small quantities
then, if they do well, you will have
some seed yourself, and may easily get
more. We need not remiad our read
ers to be beforehand with their work
Spring grains can hardly be in the
ground too soon afte the frost is out.
Potatoes follow as soon as there is
reasonable warmth in the ground.
Grass seed and clover may be sown
with spring grain, and clover on win
ter grain, is best sown upon one of the
last light winter SHOWS The earlier
manure is out upon grass and grain
land, the better. Even when the man
ure is intended for a corn crop, and
not to be plowed under until the first
part of May, the gain in the growth Of
grass, will more than compensate the
loss by the action of rains and drying
winds, except upon hill-sides and spots
where the land is especially exposed
TO the washing by heavy rains, 1t
is rare that the month passes without
warm and dry weather sufficient to
put the ground in condition for plow-
ing throughout the great middle corn
and small grain belt of the country

makes provisions for the partition OF
line fences. In regard to cattle upon
the public road the law recognizes n
lawful and an unlawful right The act
of 100 was established when the coun-
try was new and appears to be the law
yet. The Legislature of 1885 passed
a bill repeating it, but it was subse-
quently enacted that the repeating act
should not apply to any county in the
State unless the county order it by a
direct vote. This act puts it 10 the
power of any county to repeal the act
of 1900 within its own boundaries
vet practically the law is not and will
not be repealed. County commission
ers will not take the responsibility.
The prejudices of the people will enter
into their actions.
Mr. Hoods essay was long, compact
and very interesting 1t was followed
by reports from over fifty delegates and
members representing Agricultural So
cities, Farmers Clubs, and Oranges in
all parts of the state and the discus
sion on the fence problem eliminated
in a formal resolution, "That this
Board favors the repeal OF the fence
law of 100, and return to the prin-
ciple of common law by which every
man is held responsible for his own
stock"

sion Mr. Ewes asked that before pro-
ceeding with the business of the hour

requested Mr.. Mcdowell to relieve him
of his duty. Mr.. Mcdowell took the
floor and after brief address to the
Chair in which he referred to the pleas
ant relations that had ever existed be.
tween the members of this Board and
the present President, and the fact
that this would be the last annual

would preside in his present capacity,

A Recipe for Winter Use.

Allow me to give a practical and well-tried
receipt for forming slide bed, provided, Of
course, there is from two to twenty degrees
of frost in the air. When the snow and ice
have all thawed off the slide spread damp
sawdust to the depth of an inch all the way
up the slide After this has frozen, take a
large watering can and sprinkle the sawdust
all the way up the slide. By the time the
man has reached the top it will have frozen
solid at the bottom, and he can begin right
over again, continuing to sprinkle until the
required thickness of ice is formed In this
way, on a cold night, one man working all
night steadily can make two inches of solid
ice Care must be taken to make the bed Of
sawdust level. Three days rain will not
hurt a slide made properly after this manner.
