Cosmopolitan.

Some idea of what the illustration of
a magazine means, may be obtained
from the announcement that the pub
fishers OF the Cosmopolitan paid Madel-
cine Lemaire for the illustrations of
"Three Women of the Comedie Fran.
caise" ten times the amount paid for
the article. Madame Lemaire is one of
the most famous OF French illustrators.
and her work in the Cosmopolitan this
month is accompanied by that of Kate
ii. Greatorex, A. F. Jacassy, F. G.
Atwood, Dan. G. Beard, w. H. Goatcr
F. G. S. Bryce, c. r. Grant and others.
The illustration OF the Cosmopolitan
has always been ono OF its special feat.
ures, but this month it exceeds in this
respect all previous numbers.
A new feature of the Cosmopolitan,
and one which is original with thai
magazine, is the publication each month.
in the form OF foot notes, of mum.
ber of little portraits with brief biog.
raphies, of the writers Of tho various
articles. However, widely read one may
be, there isapt to be something of infor-
nation lacking regarding the vast num-
ber of writers who appear In the per-
iodicals OF tho present day, so that
these brief biographies and small por-
traits are proving very satisfactory to
the average reader.
The chief feature of the number how.
ever Is an article on Cincinnati by the
man who Is most capable OF preparing
something interesting on that city
Murat Halstead = illustrated by
sketches by Jacassy, who visited Gin
cinnati for that purpose.

DESIRABLE ron LADIES.

The new Fashion Journals published
by A. Mcdowell & Co., West 14th
Street, New York, are again on our
table. The superiority of these Jour-
nails is abuudantly shown on every
pige. la Mode" is the smallest OF
tae three, and is intended for family
use. 1t has many styles for children
and is only 81 so per year, or Is cents
per copy. LA Mode de Paris" is an
elegant journal, filed with everything
OF the latest style in Paris. This is a
great favorite with ladies who wish to
keep posted in the new style as they
come out. "Album des Modes" is also
popular Partisan publication, many
ladies giving it the preference. 1t is
replete with such styles as patronized
by middle classes, its designs being
neat and plain, yet all of the richest
character. These three monthly Jour-
uals claim to give the earliest fashions,
and they are all printed in Paris.
They contain lessons in practical
dressmaking, which are of incompar-
able value aur cash to understand.
La Mode de Paris" and the "Album
des Modes" are each $3.50 per annum,
or 80 cents for n single copy. Samples
can be obtained from the house ut sir :

In its November number the Cos
mopolitan will publish series of let
ters written by Gen. W.T.. Sherman to
one OF his young daughters, between
the years 1859 and 1865 and covering
most OF the important events of the war
OF secession. These letters present
graphic pictures ola great soldier amid
some OF the stirring scenes in which he
was giant figure, and in them the
patriotic spirit OF the Federal general
Is seen to have been most attractively
tempered by Il strong affection for the
Southern people. The fraternal feel
ing which glows in these letters il in
refreshing contrast to the sectional bit :
tern css which characterized the period
and they will constitute an interesting
and important contribution to the liter
ature of the war.

EFFECT OF FERTILIZERS


The Illinois experiment station II
located at Champaign, on black prairie
soil, upon which fertilizers, excep
barn yard manure, have failed to pro
duce any increase in wheat. The fol
lowing experiments. made on soils OF Q
different character, are reported by
Prof. Morrow in recent bulletin o
the station:
For three years past experiments
with commercial fertilizers on wheat
have been tried at points further South
than the station grounds. For 1890 81
the trials were made on the farms OF
w. w. Bowler, Flora; A. NJ. Wood
ward & Co., Odin; Chas. Stephani,
Nashville,and Fred Helms, Wilderman,
near Belleville. These are oil not far
from latitude 8s degrees, 80 minutes,
and, except the last named, on the
level light colored soils, characteristic
OF that region. Mr.. Helms soil is
darker colored and naturally very fer
tile.
The land OF Mr.. Bowler's had been
in grass from 1883 to 1888. In 1889 1t
produced about 40 bushels OF corn per
acre. In 1890 it was sown TO oats, but
the crop failed. The land at Odin had
been thrown out of cultivation for
several years until 1889, when it pro-
duced fair crop of corn. In 1890 it
was sOwn to oats, which failed to pro.
duce crop. The land at Nashville
had been in cultivation about 40 years
In corn in 1883 and 1884, oats in 1885,
wheat in 1885, oats in 1887, wheat in
1888 and 1880, ana in oats in 1890. Mr.
Helms land had been cultivated by
him % years without manure. 1t was
in wheat on clover sod in 1SS9-0O, and
yielded about 80 bushels per acre.
In each case, except at Flora. nine
plats 2x20 rods, containing one-fourth
acre each, we're used. To plat in
each case five wagon loads OF barnyard
manure were applied, and 100 pounds
OF glue factory superphosphate to plats
3, 4, 6, and o. Tho barnyard manure
and superphosphate were applied be-
fore sowing.
In each case the land had the treat
ment usual in the region in preparing
for wheat. The wheat was sown with
II drill about September 20, 1890. The
winter was favorable for the crop.
When visited at the last OF April, as
well as at harvest time, the effect OF
the barnyard manure in stimulating
growth was very apparent; that OF the
superphosphate, less 30. The wheat
was carefully harvested and threshed
from the shock, except at Flora, where
Mr.. Bowler was compelled to put it in
stack and thresh August 20. Mr.
Helms estimates that his crop was
damaged one-fifth or more by plant
lice. The wheat at Nashville was
measured; at the other places weighed.
1t was all of good quality. The aver.
age results are given in the table:

A Quick Painting Job.

1t used to he custom among paint
ers that each coat of paint applied to
II building srould have several days
or even weeks in which to dry and be-
come permanently set. Since the per
fec ion of dryers these customs have
become practically useless. l. is now
possible to paint a building and finish
it complete within as many DAYS.
Probably this kind of paint will not
last as long as the OLD fashioned raw
oil and white lead, but 1t will last for
years, and is a paint not to be despis-
ed.
The job in question was an inside
one. The work was cleaned and dust
ed up, then SOLUBLE glass reduced one
half with water was pu5 on. The
method of proceeding was to flow this
on and let it dry The finishing coats
used on this job were whiting mixed
with soluble glass, also reduced with
warm water, and glue sizing used to
prevent the coloring from rubbing mp.
