Planting Frozen Wheat.

A gentleman in Minneapolis, who has
been experimenting with seed wheat,
says the Market Record, finds that
frosted wheat of the lowest character
that comes to this market will sprOut, but
that it takes twice as long to do it, as it
does sound wheat to make the same
start. 1t is his opinion that with favor
able weather, frosted seed may grow a
plant that will do well, but thinks with
unfavorable conditions there would not
be enough vitality to carry the young
plant along until the root would get a
supply of nourishment from the soil
that would save it from early decay.
Similar experiments and similar re-
suits are reported from the country
where the trial has been conducted
by farmers. Encouraged by these
results there will be great deal of
wheat put in the ground all through
Northern Minnesota and Dakota that it
is unsafe to be depended on for good
crop. Wheat shrunken by rust is OF the
same doubtful character. Some OF the
finest crops grown in past years have on
several occasions been produced from
shrunken seed. 1t is found, however,
the season of starting the plant and sus-
tanning it until it's roots have taken hold
of the soil, has been Of very favorable
character. In practice it may result
satisfactorily, but there is some danger

is safe to say that rough usage of cows
often occasions the loss of half their

that dries them up rapidly. Boys, dogs

shrink their milk for whole year. A
noted Holstein COW. taken to the fair to

only pound of butter from forty-four
pounds of milk, while in the quiet of
her home she made pound of butter

Women Who Use Tobacco.

Ozark (Ark.) Letter.
A popular vice among the ladies of
this part of the state is the use of to-
bacco. Some will chew it like veterans,
while others are content to smoke. But
by far the most common way of deriv-
ing enjoyment from its use is to take
it in the form of snuff. When number
of women get together the snuff-boX is
nearly always produced. with the in

per's outfit consists of small tin can

long. and a wooden brush. The latter
is about three inches in length, and in
size resembles slate pencil. 1t is u.s.
ually cut from black gum or some other
tough wood. One end is chewed and
splintered by the teeth till it looks like
a small paint brush. The splintered
end is dipped into the snuff and
worked around till little ball has
been collected. The snuff thus secured
is rubbed over tie teeth and gums.
Usually the stick is held between the
teeth till the snuff has all been alb
sorbed, when another dip is taken. For
ladies who object to using canister
and brush small snuff wafer has been
invented which can be concealed be-
tween the lips and teeth. A grocer's
clerk asserted emphatically that fully
80 per cent. of the women used either
tobacco or snuff, or both. By thinking
men the tobacco habit among women is
considered one of the worst evils with
which Arkansas Is Obliged to contend.

railroad fare and travelling expenses. I
got S. day, railroad fare and expenses
for this trip. but then took it little
cheaper because / wanted to visit
friends. You see, the class of people
who come to California in search of
health generally have plenty of money,
and many Of them put off their visits
too long. After patient has been here
about five weeks he generally dies or
gets strong again. The change is SO
great in the climate that it soon makes
itself felt. Now it costs double first
class express rates to send body from
California to the Missouri river, which
amounts to about $500; consequently it
is cheaper to hire me, pay my expenses
and feel sure that the corpse will go
through safely. The number of inyalids
who go to California is increasing every
year, and my business is fast growing
