How to Make It Pay.

The inquiries how to make the farm
pay five Or six per cent. interest on a
high valuation seem rather more nu-
merous this spring than usual. Quite
possibly some of these come from
parties who have been trying it and
have not succeeded. The answer is
that nobody can safely guarantee such
profits, even with the best of manage
ment. Real estate security is among
the best, and this never does and never
will bring the highest profits. When
Government bonds bearing three per
cent. sell at premium it IS absurd to
expect nearly or quite that interest on
security equally good. Probably in
most parts of the country real estate is
held higher than it ought to be from
the readiness of capitalists to lend
money on security. just in this fact
lies the mistake of farmers who run in
debt for more land. They almost in-
evitably have to pay as interest more
than they can make as net profit.
There are exceptions to this, but only
enough to prove that it is the general

TIER PASTURES.

The Necessity of Seeding Them Amply
and With Care.
There is not sufficient care and skill
exercised in the starting and perpetual
ton of pastures. There is in most
cases neither enough seed nor suffi-
cie9t variety, to make pasture which
will cover the ground and keep it
moist and mellow. And the pastures
are cropped too short, letting the sun
burn and bake the soil and dry up
vegetation. We venture to say that
most Iowa pastures could be made to
they do. One variety of grass -four
ishes and will produce rich and tender
pasture at one season of the year,
while another variety will be
prime in another season, and yet
one will not crowd or interfere
with the other. One variety OF
grass will push its roots along close to
the surface and attract all of the plant
food in its appropriate depths. And
other varieties will send their roots
deep after water, nitrogen and other
plant food. Thus it is seen, to have
perfect pasture, there should be variety
in the number of grasses sown. Be-
sides the pasture must be fed if it is ex-
pected to produce ample products.
This Is greatly neglected, and as con-
sequnce taxes have to be paid on, and
capital invested in. one hundred acres
for pasture, when the same amount OF
grass could be raised ON forty. It is
therefore important that pasture
should be amply seeded in variety and
quantity, that it should not be fed too
short, and that it should be literally
fertilized. Then each acre will render
more profit with less labor than any
other acre of crops on the farm.-Des
Moines Register.

Equal to the Emergency.

Brunswick, Me-, is getting ready to
celebrate its 15Oth anniversary, and
already stories of the early days of the
town are being set ahoat. Here's one:
Mr.. William Walker, of Falmouth,
and Miss Sibyl Staples, of Topsham,
were to be married. They were on the
Topsham side of the river, and ON the
Brunswick side was Rev. John
Miller, the minister who was to per-
form the ceremony, and between them
rolled the raging waters swollen by the
sudden spring thaw. The minister
couldn't get to the anxious couple and
they couldn't get to him. But he was
equal to the emergency. Standing on
the edge of the bank, he sent his pow
erful voice across the stream, and
William and Sibyl joined hands and
made the proper responses, and were
duly pronounced man and wife.-M +.

ABOUT EATING CROW.

An Amusing Account of the Origin of tho
Popular Expression.
Having received an inquiry concern
ing the origin of the expression I would
say that the crow has long been the
emblem of contention-as Hudibra5
says:
Fl not-resolve before we 70
That you and must pull q crow.
The same idea is suggested in Com
edy of Errors, act third:
Wen pluck q crow together.
In common parlance, eating crow, as
an expression of humiliation, is much
the same as eating humble pie, but evil
IDENTIFY is more expressive. It's origin
is too obscure to be definitely reached.
but it came into use during the late re-
beliion and evidently was born in the
camp. Many years ago I heard the
late G. P. Disosway, who was con-
frmed humorist, tell the following
story, which he had received from
soldier, and I also heard it
from Captain Ballou, of the One
Hundred and Fifteenth Regiment:
A private in one of the Pennsylvania
regiments got leave to go hunting, and
unfortunately shot tame crow belong
ing to a planter, who happened to come
up just as the bird was killed. The
unlucky hunter had rested his muskes
against a tree, and the planter seized
it and, pointing it at the former, ex-
claimed: "You can eat that crow or
die" There being no escape the hunter
got through with part of his distastefuI
meal, when the planter, relenting, said:
you've done pretty we'll; here, take
your gun and get Off right smart"
The soldier, as soon as he got the piece
in his hands, Immediately turned the
tables by leveling it at the planter, ex-
claiming: ''Now you eat the rest OF
that crow or I'll shoot you on the spot"
There being no escape the thing was
done. In few days the planter had
occasion to visit the camp, and as the
soldier recognized him one of the
officers inquired: ''Do you know that
man ?" %, yes" replied the planter.

+ PICTURED BY PROXY.

The Happy Thought Put Into Practice
by a Detroit Mother.
A Detroit lady, whose friends live
abroad, had her baby's picture taken
and sent a dozen cabinet-sized photo
graphs to Europe. Before they went
she showed them to friends in this
city.
''How perfectly lovely" they all ex-
claimed; lit looks like fancy picture.
What beautiful child! I should lore
to see him.
This from friends who either had not
seen the baby or had forgotten how he
looked.
One lady, whose senses were quite
acute, was ready with startling sug-
gestion.
THAT child isn't yours, Mrs. -;
the photographer has made mistake.
Why, he doesn't look a bit like your
little Harry"
'H-u-s-h," said the quick-witted
mother, ''it's all right. You know
Harry's hair isn't long enough to make
pretty bangs, and he really hasn't q
nice nose, and I borrowed a baby just
his size-a real little beauty, isn't he
and he has all of Harry's clothes on,
and his little ring. Aren't the en-
broideries lovely? Isn't that little cap
just too sweet?'
but are you really going to send
this picture away2" L..
''O course I am. They'll never
know the difference, and isn't he
lovely? Why, Harry wouldn't take
half as pretty picture, though he is a
darling. But you know want some
thing extra nice to send over there"
If this happy thought should include
grown people it will not be half q bad
idea. Then professional beauties
could sit for homely women and the
science of photography would have
achieved a lasting fame. After all. it
is generally the likeness in q picture
that condemns it.-Detr0it Free Press,
