Facts Good Enough.

The Farmer always feels compli-
mented when DIR. Hoskins of the Yer
mont Waterman quotes from its col
umns, for if anything passes his level
judgment it must have merit. In his
last issue he takes paragraph of ours
on succulent food as a text for brief
discourse on enthusiasts as teachers
and leaders in agriculture, and, apply
ing it to silos and ensilage, cOmmends
the admitted eXtravagarces of the en-
thusiast above the cool and level adj
herent to facts, OH the ground that the
fogyism of farmers seems to be justified
by only statement of facts, while the
enthusiast breaks up their torpidity and
sets them on the way towards the
adoption of the new and the better. Ac-
cording to this philosophy, we must set
our claims great way above the facts
in the case in order that farmers may
realize fractional part of the truth.
We can not quite admit this, and must
adhere to the position that square
adherence to facts candidly stated, and
deliberately yet firmly placed and hon
esty maintained, will lead more follow
ers and carry them further than extraV-
a0ant extremists will ever be able to
do. We believe the introduction of the
silo system of preserving corn-todder
was retarded 10y the eXtrayagaut claims
made for it, which cool and candid
minds knew could not be true. If
only the truth had been claimed many
more would have adopted the system
readily and prompty.-Mdue Fdrmer.
The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1889-12-04
The Value of ForcihIe Statement.

Our esteemed friend, Editor Gilbert
of the Maine Farmer, under the head
ing Facts Good Enough, which we re.
print elsewhere, dissents from, but we
think little misunderstands and mis-
states some remarks of ours which re-
Gently appeared in these columns.
" Facts" are "good enough" any
where and for everybody; but facts
forcibly stated are of much more prac-
tical value than facts qualified away to
nothing. We once read of a minister
of the gospel who, falling into company
with great actor, asked him why it
was that stage plays took so much more
hold upon their auditors than sermons.
81 know of no other reason" replied
the actor, than that we represent
fiction with all the power of truth,
whereas too many of your cloth present
the momentous truths of the gospel as
though destitute of reality" 1t is not
that, in regard to great agricultural
truths, we want them alleged with alfse-
hood, but that we want them stated
with such directness, earnestness and
force that even the most sluggish will
be awakened to their value and impor-
lance. Anything false would be an
! element of weakness.

INSECT KILLING.-P Professor A. J.
Cook of the Michigan Agricultural Col
lege has been for several years expert
mentng with paris green and london
purple as destroyers of the codling moth
on the apple tree and the curculio on
the plum-tree. He finds it is not eff
fective in destroying the curculio, ex-
cept in dry season, when the mixture
which is used to spray with can be
made to dry on to the plum and adhere
to it. In this case every plum must be
wet all over, so that the dry covering
will be complete. In rainy season
the mixture washes off and does no
good. But on the apple it has for years
proved complete protection. The
mixture recommended is one pound of
london purple to 200 gallons of water,
or one pound of paris green to 300 gal
Ions of water. The latter he considers
much safer to use.

THE VALUE OF CLovER-Among
the general run " of our farmers ex-
elusive clover-growing finds very little
favor. The ordinary mixture of tim
othy and clover in seeding down is
about the only way that the average
farmer uses clover at all. 1t is very
good way; and the mixed hay, though
not as salable as pure timothy, is really
better for feeding to any kind of stock.
But the clover soon runs out in a tim
othy seeding, or becomes a very insig-
ni6cant part of the crop. The chief OBJ
lection to growing fields of clear clover
is in the difficulty of curing and handling
the crop; and, with the inexperience
which generally prevails, this objection
effectually bars the culture of clover on
most New England farms. Yet if this

ample, but trying will spoil it all, and they
viii most certainly fail OF course the young
debutante had scores of lovers at her feet but
for long time she was rover, with no dis
position to go out of the game.
Alas for Lille, when finally she succumbed,
she chose in accordance with Der reckless ma
ture and chose consciously. Many splendid
men, some one of whom might have wor-
SHIPPED her and made her good husband,
were obliged to give way to a man who could
not appreciate the prize he had won. Howard
Colt was one of those well born, good for moth
ing. large, lazy youths with no especial prin-
ciple, who are apt to get more favor from
young girls than they deserve. DR.. and Mrs.
Hitchcock, surmising the condition of affairs,
whipped their daughter Off TO Europe But
Lille was young woman to circumvent any
one On the evening before her departure
she stole out and married her lover. A few
weeks later he received characteristic tele-
gram:
Howard, it's out"
Then she joined her husband, but was not
blessed by her parents for several years
1t is said that Mrs. Colt, in company with
her husband once visited q cock fight that
she donned male attire in order to be admit
ted, but reckoned without her host. The
scenes about the pit were altogether too
much for her, ard she beat a hasty retreat.
So strong was her hold upon the hearts Of
her friends and acquaintance that even this
breach of conventlonaiity did her no harm
In their esteem.
Colt soon began to show his true character
He was libertine and first shocked his wife
by a liaison with a well known actress.
Then he further showed his want Of upprecia-
ton Of the brilliant prize he had taken from
better men by special attention TO the wife If
Billy Emerson the minstrel This last affair
was too much for his wife and she left him
She did not ask a divorce, but went abroad
with her father. Colt finally made some
atonement for his past acts By dying and
leaving his wife widow. She withdrew
from the world for time, and has recently
come ont of her seclusion and resumed her
old habits Judging from the recent eIhi-
bition in her parlors, she Is as much OF
natural sportswoman as ever.
She is charming hostess, and holds her
guests not only by her ability to make them
comfortable, but by her own briuiancy In
conversation. and by that recklessness that
contempt for conventionality necessarily OBJ
served by other women. In her peculiar
sphere she is a sort of genius. Nine women
out Of ten who live such life never succeed
in dives.ins those about them OF the belief
that they are not pure Miss Coli snaps her
fingers at the world and the world sdores her.

A BARRIERS Patience.

BARRIERS are not without queer experiences
in their line Of trade. We sometimes have
very queer folks to deal with. and generally
they are the very ones who patronize us the
least Customers come who want to give you
a draft Of plan to cut their hair by. They
want their hair cut thick on the sides, thin on
the top, or just the reverse. Others want
their hair cut lightly on the top and sides and
thick in the back. Those with bald head
tendency want plentiful use Of the hair
brush, while those with good, rich growth
of hair want very little if any brushing for
fear that their soft tresses may be injured.
1t requires no end of patience TO make a sue
cessful barber, | assure you.-St. Louis Globe
