Things Told by Others.

Professor Golf says: Whole potatoes are
the best to plant, as they give more gain
in the crop than the extra amount of seed
required. The strongest eyes are on the
seed end. Never use sprouted seed. No
particular difference where you put the
fertilizer. Potash is the best fertilizer,
and the best soil a gravel loan with clio
yer sod.
Oats are one of the best egg producing
foods known, says Southern Fancier.
Oats would be more extensively used
were it not for the rough hull. Now that
a hulless oats can be raised the problem
of cheap egg producing food has been
solved. Itshould constitute three fourths
of the diet of the large breeds, whose in
activity causes them to take on more fat
than is desirable.
A complete change of the soil in flower
pots is sometimes necessary, and will en-
ablea plant to secure more food and grow
better.
Feather eating hens are best broken of
this habit by plenty Of exercise and q
variety OF food, including raw meat or
other animal food.

War Against Cigarettes.

The subject of cigarette smoking was
earnestly discussed yesterday afternoon
at n meeting of the superintendent of the
department of narcotics of the local
auxiliaries OF the w. c. T. u, held in
the Church of our Father. Mrs. DR..
Kent, the district superintendent, presid-
ed. An address was delivered by DR. Caro-
line i WinslOW on the harmful effects of
narcotics on the human system In the
discussion that followed it was stated that
there were $40 places in the district, out
side of hotels and bar rooms, where to-
bacco was sold. The great need of popu-
lar education on the subject of the
injurious effects of cigarette smok-
ing was presented, and illus
trated by the instance of two
mothers whose young sons had been re-
fused cigarettes by conscientious tobac-
conist. personally requesting the dealer
to give their boys cigarettes whenever
they called for them. The Importance
of efforts to secure the passage
of the bill against the sale of
cigarettes to minors, introduced at
the last session Of congress, was
strongly urged, and the facts brought out
that nearly all of the physicians, clergy
men and public school teachers of the
district were III favor of it. 1t was de-
cided to hold public meetings in the in
terest of the department, and to have a
meeting of the superintendent on the
first Friday of each month. X.

A CURIOUS PRAYER MEETING.
All Newspaper Composing Rooms Are Not Alb
sOluteIy Bad.
Chicann Mil


The composition room of q Chicago
morning daily is not the most ordinary
place for prayer meeting to be held i,
and the regulation cOmpositor would not i,
as a rule, be suspected of taking an
active part, yet it is fact that
such meetings are held in the
composition room of one of the
leading morning papers in Chicago L
sometimes visit in the Office referred to.
A few nights ago, while lounging around
the makeup table, heard the question
put by one of the employees to the make
up man: "Going to stay to prayer
meeting Tonight, Tom?" The man of
whom the question was asked told me
that they frequently had an impromptu
meeting after the zig" was up.
''Who leads? X 1 asked.
Jake, the copy-cutter. It usually
lasts about twenty minutes, and some of
the boys are deeply interested. -
As the zig was almost up-which
means that the copy was about all off the
hooks and the forms nearly ready for the
stereotypers-I concluded to wait and
attend the meeting, which [ must
confess, although of the most I'M
pretentious style, was exceedingly inter

was not held, as it was decided on this
particular night to have a Bible discus
sion instead. A short prayer was offered.

came remarks from various ones of the
seven or eight who were interested enough
to remain and attend the meeting.
Now, [ know that newspaper offices
cannot boast of a first-classs reputation
for piety, but since my experience at this
little gathering I have come to the
conclusion that there are some
places in Chicago more closely al
lied with the church that might
be a great deal worse [ have
various churches, sat in richly
upholstered pews, and listened to very
instructive discourses from learnd
preachers; but 1 am positive that the i'm

has lasted longer than the imprints of
all the sermons combined that [ ever
heard preached from richly furnished |

legs, listened to words coming from a |

Reform.
Indianapolis Journal
The camera in the hands of a photo
grapher has served many uses, but its
value as a temperance advocate has
never been fully tested. A few DAYS
since a couple of enthusiastic photograph
ers, with an instantaneous pocket in
strument little longer Than sardine
box, appeared at one Of the city hotels
and informed the cherk that they came
to photograph friend who had been
taken violently drunk the day before,
and who was still largely under the influ-
ence of the ardent.
Inquired of as TO the reason for wishing
TO make counterfeit presentmedt of the
vinous individual they said their object
was to reform him by exhibiting to
him, on his next occasion of sobriety, a
picture of himself taken in an advanced
stage of whisky, and that this exhibit,
thus made, would in all probability have
the same effect upon him that the sight
of the drunken woman had upon the
Spartan youth-teaching him the need of
moderation in his cups. The hotel peo-
pie, at first disinelined to permit any
copying from still-life of the char
aeter referred to, were induced to releut
and co-operate in the proposed reforma-
ton, and the expedition, including q re-
porter who was taken along 10 chronicle

ceeded TO hunt up its proposed subject.
There was no question of his fitness
for that test when he was found Like

doubt as to the means Of his overthrow
he had gone to bed withis hat on.
1t required but moment TO supply the
few details necessary to make the picture
effective. An American flag draped after
the manner of a winding sheet, a few
bottles and tumblers peeping out through
its interstices, and the inscription we
have given him up for gone, on a TAG
pinned TO his collar, told the whuIe
story. The instrument was leveIed and
sighted. Snapl and with an instant :
opening OF the shntter-yalve the whole
scene was perpetuated for all time to
come. If the victim does not reform
when he gets his copy of that picture.
