WASTE OF NERVE FORCE.

Abstract of a Lecture by j. II. Kellogg,
M. d., Battle Creek SAnItarium.
Americans waste nerve force by un-
necessary expenditure. They eat too
much, and sleep too little; they read
exciting books and enter excited dis
cussions; they wear themselves out in
exciting forms of recreation, and, in
short can not enjoy themselves unless
they get excited in some way Children
are growing up to think they can not
be happy without some form of excite
ment and they make it unless furnished
from outside. Women suuander nerve
force on tea and the men on nicotine
and then take sedati We to make them
sleep. Quieting the ne rves with bromide
of potash or the like, is like pilin0 on
sand bags for ballast. In this way the
medicine habit is formed. Tonics are
taken to tone the nerves up for the day
and sleeping potioDs must follow at
night. How many people are there who
do not swallow some kind of medicine
every day? saw picture once of a
farmer who had brou ght in produce for
barter and had taken in exchange tea
and tobacco in about equal quantities,
con diments and a moderate supply of
sugar and salt. while larger basket
was being piled up with patent medi-
cines! This is but slightly exagger-
ated representation, and everybody who
knows should be a missionary to tell
people the harm of continual dosing.
Tonics 90 not make the nerve tone
any better; they only take little more
nerve out of the fund. They give no
strength, but take strength out of the
body by inducing the patient to expend
more than he can spare.
The great need then is to save nervous
energy in every way possible Do not
squander it in useless talk or useless
reading or needless excitement. Keen
away from exciting games and shun
exciting papers and books. Go into a
gymnasium daily and take systematic
exercise; this is an expenditure that
will bring return in increasing nerve
capital which can be turned into useful
channels. If you are already an invalid,
consider yourself in the condition of a
run down farm which must be allowed
to lie f4llow and be titled and enriched
in various ways, and remember that
these processes all require time and
that nature will not be hurried Give
her fair chance ana she will deal gen
erously with you.-Reported by Helen
l.. Manning.

SOWING GRASS SEED.

Experience Teaches That Early Spring ia
the Best Time to Sow 1t.
1t is the practice of many to SOW
timothy seed in the fall, and clover
seed in the spring; but l have found it
best to sow all grass seed of every kind
early IN the spring, while the snow does
not injure the seed, but helps it to get
an early start, says John E. Van Etten.
In Practical Farmer. Strictly the best
OF all times to seed woSld be when
nature sows; that is, each kind of seed
when it is ripe, and before it dries, but
the conditions will not permit. There
is then no seed-bed prepared. Grass is
very active plant, but only so in wet
and warm weather. This gives the
hint when to sow. In Che fall nature
has suspended nearly all activity in the
grass plant. Whatever is then put in
the ground has to fight for bare ex-
istence, and if overtaken by drought is
sure to suceumb. Strawberries are a
species of grass, but none of us ever
venture to transplant them after An
gust, because after that time there is
not activity enough in the nature of the
plant to secure it against the winter.
So with all of the staple grasses. Like
the deciduous trees, they are then dis
posed to store their sap-food in their
roots under ground, and, like the bears.
hibernate, or go to sleep for the winter
and little growth can then be secured.
unless the fall should be wet, of which
there is no certainty. But in the early
spring it is otherwise. Then there Is
no uncertainty. As early as March the
sap begins to flow in the roots of the
grasses, and then they are awakened
from their long sleep. Now, If at this
time the grass seed be sown. every seed
will grow, especially if sown on the
snow, for the dampness of the snow will
swell the seed without injuring it, and
just as soon as the snow isgone it viii
spring into life, and will then be nursed
by the spring rains beyond danger, when
the spring drought comes on. No har-
rowing is then required, for the meltino,
OF the snow, dissolving frost and the
early spring rains will sufficiently cover
the seed. l made a fine test last
year. / had thirty acres to seed
all In one lot. It was all
plowed early in September. About
the middle of September I seeded
half Of it with timothy, clover and or
chard grass, and carefully narrowed
and rolled it. On the 21st day of March
l seeded the other half with same
kinds Of seed, sowing it broadcast on
the snow. Now for the result The
fifteen acres which I so carefully
seeded in the fall were an entire failure
while the fifteen acres which / seeded
on the snow were grand success. In
the spring seeding the timothy and
clover and orchard grass stand as thick
as they can, while In the fall seeding
there is only here and there a stem. The
want OF snow last winter to cover the
fall seeding may have, aud probably
had, some influence, but all my obser-
Tation and experience has been il favor
Ct snging seeding regardless 81 III

American Wealth.

Not greater than the wealth of America
was the tabled wealth of the Indies. There
are thousand Americans worth 81 .OO0. 900
or more. There are at least five Amer
leans richer than Croesus of song and story
The wealth of the Duke of Westminster,
whose fortune is the greatest in Europe, is
at careful estimate $40, 00O, 600, or $50, co.,
600, aud it is the accumulation of long
ancestry. Most of the American fortunes
are the accumulation of single genera
ton.
The aggregate wealth of the Rothschilds
reaches nearly $1,000, 0OO, 900, but il is dis
tribut ID among so many that no individual
Roths hid is worth over $40, 600 600. The
-A-ahdt rbiIt family wealth foots~t,fy nearly
ss5Oooo,OOo and is held in comparativeIy
few he nds. There are scores Of Americans
who are richer than any ruling monarch
OF the eastern hemisphere. The incomes
OF many monarchs are large, but they are
derivet from the civil lists of the countries
over " hich they hold sway. and do not rep
resent the accretions of their own fortunes
As people the Americans are the rich
est IN he world. Money is more easily ac-
quired here than anywhere else, and it is
likewise more literally spent. What are
considered moderate fortunes here are in
other ] inds regarded az stupendous aggre-
cations of wealth. There are no such 3D.
portunities of making money in other
countr es us in this, and therefore it NAV
be expected that the number OF American
million aires will be multiplied and the
fortunes of the present millionaires dou-
bled, tlipled and quadrupled within the
next two deeades.-New York World.
