The Chess Ouestinn.

Many farmers believe that when wheat is grazed or winter killed it is fre- quently charged to chess or cheat. This is erroneous. Wheat and chess belong to two widely different families of plants, of separate and distinct species, and have nothing in common. Now it is an es- tablished fact that one species never changes into another. In some instances they will hybridize, but careful experi- ment and culture have proven that wheat and chess will not.
 There is some cause for the theories with regard to wheat becoming chess and vice versa. Chess is of an insidious nature and will lie dormant in the soil for years, waiting until the conditions are favorable for its germination The chess seed has thick, tough husE, i'm pervious to any ordinary degree of moisture and requires excessive wet to cause it to germinate.
 Wheat with chess seeds is often sown and the conditions being unfa7orable for the germination of the chess, it does not appear, and hence the idea that it has turned back to wheat. Then again, there has been wheat seed sown with no chess in it; hard freezing winter intervenes with cold wet spring, and the result is that a portion of the wheat Is killed while the latent chess seeds that are in the ground grow and produce a crop. When cattle are allowed to pasture on the wheat fields they tramp holes in the ground which hold the moisture and the chess seeds are sprouted. Wagon tracks do the same thing with the same effect
 When chess is shaded or partly smoth- cred by a dense growth of wheat, the plants are quite small and unseen, some being barely two inches high. ripening single seed, and quite unseen by most observers. But where the wheat is killed in any way, and the chess is allowed free space, the plants spring up and grow luxuriantly.
 In the accompanying cut, originally drawn from nature for Country Gentle man, Is shown the relative size of the repressed plants and of those allowed full space to grow. With knowledge of this peculiarity of the plant one may under stand how destroyed wheat crop is ap- parently transmitted to chess, the former minute and unseen chess plants spring up when allowed space, occupying the whole wheat space, and giving luxuri- E ant crop

Mems Dress Reform.

Dress reform for men would be good cry to take up, for there is no doubt that the tables could be turned on the men on the question of summer clothing. The weight of a man's clothing in summer is greater than that of a woman. This was decided some time ago by the actual weighing of clothing and the womans weighed three pounds and nine ounces, while the mans weighed eight pounds and ten ounces. The editor of certain daily newspaper cries out in distress: "A tailor who is ingenious enough to invent a scheme for summer clothing for men which will leave out the starched shirt, and still be neat and becoming, will merit the praise of many sufferers and ought to make a fortune"
 Women arc the envy of men in hot weather on account of the lightness and coolness of their clothing The greatest anathema is directed against the cotton shirt, and now that it is somewhat the style to wear woolen shirt in summer for undress comfort there is plenty of evidence that the woolen garment is pre- ferred to the cotton. A correspondent writes: "For over twenty years 1 have

Is Marriage a FnIlnre2

Is marriage Q failure? In many indi vidual cases, yes; in the great aggregate of human experience, no. We cannot allow it to be failure. It is the anchor which saves man from shipwreck. It is the harbor into which a woman guides her boat to find peace and safety from Gfe's storms. The history of all that is greatest and best in the world records many failures, but the eternal principles of right move on with the resistless and unchanging majesty of the stars in their course. Dare we look into the innocent eyes of childhood and allow ourselves to debate this subject? If but for one in etant we compare the conditions that surround tho child born in wedlock to the child born without; if we contrast the situation of the mothers Of these two children, we receive an answer to this question that should forever end the argument.-Ida Harper in Indianapolis Journal.

A Victim of Etiouette.

The ridiculous rigidity of Spanish court etiquette was answerable for the death of Philip III. He was busily en- gagged with his dispatches and state papers, and, the day being cold, great brazier of burning coals was brought into the room and set down so close to his majesty that soon his royal face was bathed in precipitation. It was not in his nature, however, to find fault or com plain, and so he sat in patience, enduring the excessive heat, until the Marquis of Polar, one of the gentlemen of his cham Der, perceiving how seriously he was in- convenienced, told the Duke of Alba, an other Of the royal body guard, to remove the brazier. No, said the duke, that was the duty of the kings chief steward, the Duke of Usseda, who was accordingly sent for. Unfortunately he was not at hand, and before he made his appear ance the king was so heated that next day fever supervened. which, acting on q naturally fervid constitution, turned to erysipelas, and then the victim of eti quette died.-Gentleplan Magazine.

4 Dairy Mystery Solved.

For some time past the COWS on the ranch of s. w. Coffee, who lives about five miles northeast of Modesto, have been yielding little or no milk in the morning. As the yield at night has not been decreased it was naturally cause of wonder and surprise. The conjectures as to the cause were many, and it was finally in- vestigated. The result was truly as- tonishing. It was discovered that when the COWS were corralled at night, and after they had laid down. q band Of shoats that frequentcd the barnyard he'd been in the habit of extracting the milk from the udder. The parties on watch saw the young swine, about midnight, cautiously approach the COWS and com mence sucking with a confidence and zest that denoted familiarity with the work. This story, although singular, is vouched for by N. r. Howell. Doe says the shoats in question wal squal and whine after the cows as persistently and naturally as though they were calling their mothers.-Modesto (Cal.) News.

Points on Cold Stnrnre.

If large cold storage room Is to be built independent of any other building it must be made on the same principle as an ice house, with walls packed so as tc be non-conductors of heat--the lower room for storage, smaller one on top and in the center for Ice, a thin but water tight division between the two, with pipes to carry of the water from the melting ice. The reason for putting ice on top of the storage room Is that cold air dcscends, while rarefied air rises. In some cases where refrigerators are put into rooms with low stories the ice bunker or receptacle Is in an annex at the side or end, but, for the reason given, on top is better.
 When a refrigerator of medium size is wanted that can be set up in another room it will, as a rule, be better to buy of a manufacturer by furnishing Q diagram of the room in which 1t is to stand. giving the dimensions wanted and other particulars and agreeing on the price to be paid.
 Many of tho refrigerators designed for butchers and poulterers' use are about l0xO feet in the clear, with suitable sized ice bunker on top There are plenty of manufacturers In New York and other cities who make them of the sizes ordered, and to suit the rooms in which they are to be placed. and in forms that can be conveniently shipped and quickly put up on arrival at their desti- nation.
