heresults of two wears experiments 10
test the influence of close pasturing upon
growing wheat at the Kansas station is
thus reported upon by Professor Shelton;
An accurately measured half acre was
fed of closely during the fall months.
This half acre was pasmred by consid-
orable herd at different times, the total
Grazing amounting to 16l hours by a
SINGLE animal. The wheat upon this pas
tured area seemed not to suffer much
from the increased demands upon 1t; 1t
ras slightly shorter than the unpastured
nortion of the field. and the time of
blossoining and ripening seemed to have
been somewhat checked, although not
eno;irn TO influence the time Of harvest
ing.
Comparing this pastured half acre
with All adjoining half acre, unpastured,
we find that the pastured area gave a
Weld of II % bushels of grain and l,l5o
mounds Of straw. while the unpastured
area gave 13. 5 bushels Of grain and 1902
pounds of straw. These figures seem to
SHOW loss by pasturing. The differ
enoe in Weld, however, is clearly charge
able to another cause.-The unpastured
area had better soil and a thicker and
more even stand to begin with than that
which was pastured. This difference IS
amply sufficient to explain the variation
in Weld of the two areas. This fact
serves further strikingly to illustrate the
difficulty experienced everywhere in
using few large Plats to test a given
point.

Aeer Many Years.

Many years ago 4 little colored girl, 6
years old. went TO live in the family Of
Mr.. James Meder, worthy Quaker of
Falmouth. In that family was a little
white girl, 4 years old. The two children
grew up as sisters and the friendship con-
tinaed for eighteen years, it is said, with
out an unkind word passing between
them. At the end of that time they
were separated, the Meder girl going
west. where she married, and the colored
Girl marrying Z man named Furness in
Bangor aad moving to Brunswick in
1873. Not long ago the two old time
friends met once more, their meeting be-
ing described in The Brunswick Tele-
graph this week. The western lady, now
Mrs. c. n. Lambert. of Denver. Colo,
had made several Intellectual attempts to
find her old playmate. and O few weeks
ago. while in Portland, she asked a
colorcd man whom she met in a store il
he knew such woman as Mrs. Furness.
As it happened the man could give the
required information and Mrs. Lambert
went to Brunswick. When entering the
room she looked the old colored woman
full in the face and quietly asked, DO
YOU lnow me- No" was the reply.
"What. don't thee know the Quaker"
The old familiar Quaker form brought
instant recognition, and the two thus re-
united ildulcedi IN alternate smiles and

Railroad WrecksiuIo

Awreck occurred on the Chicago, st. Pau
Kansas City road about two miles north
Of Dubuque. The Grand Army had beer,
holding n picnic at Twin Springs, resort
about thirteen miles from Dubuuue. Over
five thousand people were in attendance,
trnns heing run every hour to and from the
grounds. The carrying accommodations of
the railrond company consisted of two
coachcs, two stock ears, sented, und nine
cnbooses. In these ears 5000 people wero
being brought home ngnin when the accident
occurred. Tho excursion train had landed
! 200 people at Dubuque and was returning
for the remainder Of tho crowd. which con
sisted OF about 1000 men, women and
children, when it colli,ied with q freight
train en- route to Dubuque.
1t is admitted That one man, n brakeman
nnmed Corrigan, was instantly killed and
three Others seriously injured. 4 lnrge num-
Der of people on the excursion trniI were 90
ing up TO pass II few hours in the resort, in.
tending to return on the late train. and it is
believed many people were killed. The wreck
occurred Mt point not accessible by wagon
road and nothing further can he learned ,in-
til the return of the physicians and officials
who have gone to the scene of the disnst.r
One serious feature of the affair wns
that about 1000 people, many of them
women and children. were compelled to re.
main over night on the grounds without
shelter or sufficient raimsnt to protect them
from tho chilly night air. No satisfactory
reason for the accident has been assigned. it
is thought to be the result Of carclessness.
