Less Land and Larger Yields
Needed.

1t IS not in additional acreage
that the progressive farmer must look
for his gains, but in making less
land yield more substance. This
means, primarily, the bestowing, Of
more labor upon small areas; and to
the average farmer this seems syon
ymous with neglect of his larger
acreage of grain. To harmonic
these apparently conflicting methods
is the task Of the intelligent farmer
of to day. The two principal meth
DDS by which the value of the pro-
duct OF limited portion of our acre
age can be increased, are: the grow
ing of vegetable supplies for our
home markets throughout the sea
son; and the growing of field crops
of vegetables for shipment to city
markets In the fall and winter. The
first of these is particularly applics-
BILE to those farmers who
are located near medium
sized towns--s say of from three thou
sand to ten thousand population.
Regular market gardeners usually
locate near the larger cities; and
these smaller towns are dependent
for their supply OF spring and sum
mer vegetables upon the scant sur
plus OF farmers gardens or upon
shipments from the cities. The sec
ond method noted can be advanta-
geously pursued by such as are
located near cities, as their entire
product can be there disposed of to
wholesale merchant; or by those
remote from cities, but near rail
roads over which their crops can be
shipped in bulk to the city commi s.

A New Hypnotic Phenomenon.

NJ. Liegois contributes to q recent
number Of The Revue dc lHypnotisRe
an article describing new hypnotic
phenomenon, in the field of negative
hallucination." This term describes a
state in which the suggestion that GER
tain person, certain object in the field
of vision, remains unseen, has been
obeyed. The state is explained as an an
initiation of the perception as it reaches
consciousness, The impression is re-
ceived, but ignored. Having a third
party to suggest to one of his subjects
that lie will be invisible to her, it is found
that she does not hear him, see him or even
feel the prick of pin when he holds the
pin, reacting normally to all other per-
sons. If, however, N. Liegois calls out
impersonally, Camille feels thirsty,
Camille will drink glass of water she
hears and obeys the command; if sinil-
arly told to stand at his side, she does
so; and SO on for every sense. While
she does not hear him, she none the less
really can hear him. There is a sort of
dual personality, one-half OF which
obeys the negative suggestion, while the
other is automatically regulated, and
obeys any suggestion not directly in con-
fiict with previous one. The further
development Of this study promises in
teresting results.-Science.

Dangers Of Chamois Hunting.

The experience gained in ordinary deer
stalking is of little use to the chamois
hunter-the region in which the game is
to be seen is so different, while the agil-
ity and watchfulness Of the two animals
compel the cultivation of very different
kinds Of adroitness. The man who is fit
to win and wear the much priced Cam
bort" or long tuft of hair from the back
of the winter pelt of the chamois, re,
uuires to be man Of iron muscles, cool
head, unerring eye, and courage that
must often be prepared to face terrible
odds, to avoid the danger of having to
meet others much worse.
Without the power of undergoing IA
tigne and privations it is vain his at
tempting to become an adept in this
sport. And one of the very charms Of
the "Gamsjagd" lies in the knowledge
that he cannot obtain his success by any
kind of adventurous advantages. Neither
man nor dog can be of any use to him.
He must rely entirely on himself; and if
once he gets troubled with dread of
hunger or cold. or abyss or crevasse, or
slippery glissade, he may much better
try his fortune at humber game. In
short, chamois hunting is Alpine climb
ing, plus the fact that it is the antelope,
and not the guide, who selects tho trav-
eler's route.-London Standard.
