modified the estimates made. at one

favorable for the corn crop which
promises well; also potatoes and In
dia and buckwheat.
South Windham-Farmers are dig
ging their potatoes, reporting a fair
crop and excellent quality; but in
some fields they are beginning to rot,
owing to the very hot, muggy wealth
er of late.
Bellows Falls-A. l.. Davis rather
takes. the palm for variety in the. e.veg-

A good joke is told upon two st. Cloud
gentlemen, both of whom are well
known young men. One of them is a
married man. The other day two young
ladies from. well, it might have been

wife. Soon after their arrival the two
gentlemen conceived diabolical idea.
A mouse was captured and tied between
the bed clothes in the apartment occu-

Trained from giving the tragic details of
the finding of the imprisoned animal,
and it must suffice to say that it was
awful! There was no peaceful slum-
ber for the visitors that night, and until
dawn was spent by the young ladies in
deliberating upon how to avenge the
above practical joke, They succeeded
most admirably.
Last night the two gentlemen, who
occupied the same room, retired as usual.
Occasionally they would remember some
thing about the mouse and then roar
of laughter would be heard But sud-
denly everything grew still Then there
were some remarks that sounded like
"cuss words" and suddenly a prolonged
snuffing noise. and then the anxious
listeners knew that all was over, or
rather under the bed. It is explained
that when the two young men proceeded
to don what is commonly designated as
might dress" no ingress or egress
could be discovered. They were sealed

little Greek boy for guide one day and
made tour through the Jewish quar-
tiers. My Greek could talk half dozen
different languages, and we went

Their houses were of stone, and they
looked as though they had been dug out
of a rock like cave. Whole families
were living in one room Of the size of a
hall bedroom, and few Of these rooms
had any windows. Many of them
opened out on little courts, and found
up two flights of stairs six families liv-
ing in as many cave like rooms around
a dirty little close square.
Outside of each room was a little pen
in which there was rude stove for the
burning of charcoal, and in these little
box like pens, only large enough for a
woman to turn around in, all the cook
ing of the family was done. Through
the center of the court ran well which
was the property of the whole COM
munity. There were no sanitary ar
rangements of any kind, and the smell
of filth was disgusting. On the door
posts of each Of these rooms was tackled
a strip of parchment six inches long, on
which were Hebrew characters. asked
what these meant, and was told that
they represented the name of Jehovah
and the ten commandments. These
Jews have great faith, and they believe
this parchment protects them from in

Every season develops more and more
fully the prevailing necessity for the dis
covery of some practical and profitable
use to which the surplus melon crop
may be put. Every melon left in the
field at the end of the season, except for
seed, represents waste. A means by
which this waste, which annually as
sumes enormous proportions, could be
averted would no doubt be hailed with
pleasure by every melon grower in the
country; therefore the announcement
from the Southland to the effect that
such means has been discovered. if au-
thenticated, is an important one.
The new discovery, which consists Of
converting the melon bulb into sirup, it
is alleged, will establish in the south an
industry scarcely of second Importance
to that of producing oil from cotton
seed, and the product is vouched for as
being the very best ever yet made. If
the report proves true, and there seems
to be little or no reason for discrediting
it, Mississippi and Scott counties may,
with little energy, convert that which
is now absolutely valueless into profits

Calculation on q Potato.

Did you ever calculate the value of a
single potato on the basis that that single
tuber was the only one left in the world?
That one would, of course, contain with
in itself the possibility of restocking the
world with a valuable article of food.
If one potato would produce when
planted but ten potatoes in ten years
the total product Of that one potato
would be 10000, ,OOO,O 900. which would
stock the whole world with seed. If the
world were reduced to one single potato
it would be better that London or Chi
cago be blotted from the earth than for
that one tuber to be lost. st. Louis Re-
