How People Lived a Century Ago.

The farmer broke up his land
with wooden bull ploE, sowed
his grain broadcast, cut it with a
scythe. and threshed it out on his
barn floor with a fail. The first
threshing machine was invented
in 1776, but the cast-iron wheel
pillow, the drill and the reaper are
net fifty years old. The farmer S
clothes were home-spun, and his
fare of the simplest kind, served in
the cosrsest dishes. Many fruits
and vegetables that are now com
mon to every table, were then un-
known-sucl as cantaloupes, to-
matoes, rhubarb, caulifower, egg
plant, sweet corn and head lettuce.
To French emigrants we owe the
tomato, artichoke and okra. Can't
aloupe seed was first brought over
from TripoIi. While apples and
peas were plentiful, they were
small and mean compared to the
tine varieties we have now, and
the fox7yrape was the only grape
that was ever seen In the market.
The geraniums, verbenas, and
other flowers now common to our
gardens, were unknown in 1776,
and in their stead was an array of
hollyhoclls, sunfowers, poor roses,
snow balls, lilacs, pinks and tulips.
a plant known as the Jerusalem
cherry, now scarcely seen, was
then the aoral fancy of the day. A
mechanic in the city rarely tasted
fresh meat as often as once a week;
sand covered his floor in lieu of a
carpet, and if he got into debt he

Sometimes a man brings a name

Sometimes a man brings a name
across the ocean which upsets
American gravity and is a target
for ridicule. This was the case
With Mr.. Limberger, who arrived
lately in New Jersey, and after a
brief experience he applied to a
local court to lop off the first sylla-
bic of his name, so that he might
be known simply as Berger. In
ms petition Mr.. Limberger said
that he asked for the change for
the sake of his children, who were
driven from school and annoyed on
the streets by the constant refer
ence to Limberger cheese, and the
nickname "cheesy." He also said
Stat -hen he was introduced to a
stranger, his name invariably

Farmers Institute.

The first Farmers Institute for
Texas, to be held at Austin On
February Z, s and 9, at this date
promises to be a great big success.
Since the idea was first suggested
a few months ago, it has awakened
a widespread interest, and the
leading farmers of the state have
taken hold with a determination
to develop something of practical
value and to secure from the leg
islature some sort of recognition
commensurate with the Importance
of agriculture. The institutes are
nothing more nor less than gath
erings of local farmers to disas.
the various problems and condi-
tons of farming, under the direc-
tons of a state officer and few
special lecturers. The system has
brought the most satisfactory re-
suits in other states, and, properly
conducted, viii do the same for
Texas. Certain it is, that any eff
fort to improve agriculture deser-
yes the encouragement of all, for
any benefit to agriculture is a.
benefit to all.
The Farm and Ranch was the
first paper in the state to propose
this subject, and has from time to
time, devoted much space to it.
The issue of February 1, contains
about four pages DC columns of
information as to its workings and
value of Farmers Institutes. The
publishers write US that they will
send free copies of this issueJto
any who will apply. It will con
tain the complete programme of
the Austin meeting and much of
interest besides.

Psychologists tell us that our
bodies change once in seven years.
More or less, says the New Haven
Conn., News, time-and politics
change minds. In 1870 Messrs.
Allison, Cullom, DAVIS, Hale and
Hoar, then members of the house,
voted to abolish the duty on coal.
Last Wednesday the same men,
now senators, voted against plac-
ing bituminous coal on the free list.
Free coal would mean much to
New England.

VOLUME XIV.
Our Large Red Haw.

Few people know the value of
of our large red haw, which
abo Inds on our rivers. It looks
like sin to destroy them. I will
give from actual experience the
benefit they can be to those who
are fortunate enough to have them
already growing in place where
they are protected from the dep
redstions of stock. Like all other
trees in this region, they have a
long tap-root, which is the secret
of their standing the drouth so well.
This is also the reason that what
ever grows on it is a success. I
have grated the following fruits
on tile large red haw stock: Apple,
pear, ounce and media. The first
year my apple graft bore fruit; lit
was Of the Early Harvest Variety
it produced sixteen well-matured
apples, My pears were of the
Duchess de Angouleme varie ,,
and some of them weighed over
ope-half pound. Any variety of
ounce Will do well on such stocks.
The media is a native of England,
very nice fruit, but is not good
to eat until February or March, to
which time it must be housed and
kept like an apple. It is a very
pretty tree, blooming out SO late
that it is never caught by the late
frosts. 1t should grow in shady
place. I would not advise grating
anything on the haw stock except
the early varieties of the apple
and pear, as the sap in the haw
does not flow in the tree long
enough to mature late varieties.
The time for grating is Just when
the sap begins to rise. Ny expe-
rience is that gratis on this stock
grow so rapidly during the first
first few years that they frequently
need support to keep the sudden
gusts of wind from breaking them
down. When they begin to bear
fruit this rapid growth stops and
the tree becomes dwarf. Here
is another point to be observed: that
the tendency will be to produce too
much fruit This is very good
failing, Tor it is so easy to thin the
fruit, and this must be done, leay-
ing nothing but The finest gpeei.
mems. If you follow the plan laid
down here, you viii reap a rich |
harvest and have the satisfaction |
of knowing that the worst drouths
will not iniure your trees. Nv
neighbor took some gratis from
a pear tree which had not borne
for fourteen years, and put them
on haw stock. The third year
1t bore fine, well-matured speci-
mems. If any one is sufficiently
interested In planting haw seeds
stock to use for grating, 1 will
will give them the benefit of nv
experience, if our editor can spare
the space. E. E. RIsIEN

The Long Journey.

A traveller once started on long
journey. There were all classes OF
people in the train with him, men
of every race and color; happy
brides, white-haired old men and
crying babies; mothers with then
innocent children about them, and
manacled criminals going to prison.
Rich men rode in gorgeous spe-
cial cars, striving to hold them
selves aloof from the others; the
working people crowded togetheri
in the immigrant cars were herds
Of pale, anxious folk, thinly clad,
i'll and suffering, and but poorly
fed by the way.
The train rushed on, through all
kinds of scenery, through storm
and fair weather, by night and day.
The trees nodded in friendly greet
ing to the travellers, as they we're
hurried along; the moon smiled at
them = even the roadside weeds
had a message for them. Some of
them heard these greetings and
understood; some of them, busy
with their food and clothes or idle
chatter, were deaf to all.
One mysterious circumstance
about these travellers was that not
one of them knew whence he came,
nor could remember a moment Of
time before the beginning of this
Journey, nor could any one tell
him this secret concerning himself.
Another was that, no matter how
much he wished to hold himself
apart from his fellow-voyagers,
and to keep his thoughts and feel
ings and beliefs to himself, he was
forced to share them ali; to hold
intimate relations with the poor
as well as the rich, the vile and
the pure.
Do what he would to hide his
heart, it was known to all who
came near him on the way. He
was recognized and marked as
mean or honorable, selfish or gen
erous, good or evil
Each one of the travellers, too,
had the chance given him to help
his companions, no matter how
poor or helpless he himself might
be.

Judging from advertisements
and notices that appear in the
papers, one may conclude that
wearing birds wings and feathers
is to be continued and perhaps en-
larged. It is simply burning
shame and sin against God and
man. that thousands upon thou
sands of birds so useful to farmers
and others, should be killed every
year merely at the demand of a
foolish fashion that has no foun-
dalton in necessity nor in good
taste nor good sense, but is a mere
relic of barbarism, as every intel
ligent and candid person will
admit. The wild Indians Of Ameri-
ca, and the still wilder and more
savage Negroes of Africa, wear
birds feathers, and we must wear
them also! It is a fashion set long
ago by an unciyilized and barbar-
Gus people, and ladies of this coun-
try must follow.-Ex.
