sxnods and sinners.

There's Presbyterian minister in De-

i A Conventional Custom.

One of the simplest instincts of good
manners would seem to be that man
should uncover his head while eating his
dinner with his family; yet it isspretty
certain that the first gentlemen of Eng
land two centuries ago habitually wore
their hats during that ceremony, nor is
it known just when or why the practice
was changed. In Pepys' famous Diary,
which is the best manual of manners for
its period, we read, under date of Sept.
%, 1854, s'Home to bed, having got a
strange cold in my head by hinging off
my hat at dinner and sitting with the
wind in my neck. -
In Lord Clarendon's essay on the decay
of respect paid to age he says that in his
younger days he never kept his hat on
before those older than himself except
at dinner. Lord Clarendon died in 1874.
That the English members of parlia-
ment sit with their hats on during the
sessions is well known, and the same
practice prevailed at the early town
meetings in New England. The presence
or absence of the hat is therefore simply q
conventionality, and so it is with a
thousand practices which are held, SC
long as they exist, to be the most un-
changeable and matter of course affairs.

!. Chemistrx on che Farm.

Many farmers laugh at the notion of
applying the principles of chemistry on
the farm, calling such an application of
science 'sfooling' and humbug. Yet
farmers see their sons grow up and drift
away because, having been educated III
the public schools, the spirit of scien-
tific and progressive age has possessed
them, and they seek elsewhere than upon
an old fashioned farm scope for the edu-
cation which they have already gained
and for the wider education which they
crave.
Now there is no field which offers more
ample scope for aneducated and sciene
tific mind thanA good farm. The old
fashioned farmer says. What do / want
to know about chemistry? It's enough
if l manure the ground and plant my
seed; nature will take care of the rest"
But the application of manure is
chemistry" and if the farmer or his
boy understands the groundwork of that
science he knows what kind of manure
is good for certain field and what kind
is good for another field, and his knowl-
edge may make for him or save for him
many dollars in single year.
A knowledge of chemistry will enable
him to save the valuable properties of
his manures for the soil, instead of let
ting precisely those properties be evapo.
rated and wasted, as they are in the case
of most natural manures as now treated
on the farms of this country.
| But the most important function OF
science on the farm, after all, at the pres.
ent time, is not the immediate material
advantage which it may bring to the
farmer, but the means which it will sup
ply of interesting the young, of engaging
their active and eager intelligence. and
keeping them from places where they
will be very much worse off.-Youth's

Arthur Douglass, a poor sheep farmer

and finding that they could be raised in
captivity, he started in to supply the

stocked many of the surrounding
ranches, has marketed thousands of dol

Good Fishing.

The most unique locality to be found
by the sportsman is probably that sur
rounding the town of Einkville, in Kla-
math county, Ore. The town nestles at
the foot of large mountain, and lies
right on the. bank of what is locally
known as Link river This stream
which is quite large and connects the up
per and lower Klamath lakes-is. alive
with thousands and probably millions of
large fish, which are constantly passing
to and fro between the two lakes, and
are as constantly jumping out of water
in sight of the town. They are of all
sorts and sizes.
Some of them appear to be cutting up
those antics for the fun of the thing, and
some to shake some kind of an ee1like
looking creature-which attacks them in
the water and becomes attached to their
sides, causing the fish apparently much
suffering. 1t is no uncommon thing for
large fish to be taken there whose sides
are all SCARED up in consequence of these
attacks. -
| 1t would not be surprising if many
fish were thus destroyed. Probably
there are not in the world two lakes
more nunerously stocked with trout
than the upper and4ower klamath lakes.
Judging by map measurement, they
each average thirty miles in length by
ten miles in width. Many large streams
empty into them, affording splendid
fishing and spawning grounds. Lying
east of the Cascade range of mountains,
where genuine winter prevails in the
season for it, the water is better and the
fish healthy and solid-features which
do not prevail on the western side OF
the mountains, where an almanac has to
be consulted to ascertain accurately the
season Of the year.-Forest and Stream.

given to him by friend, and he was de-

to his tastes When further funds came

THE Republican party of this State

on basis Of services performed.
The Legislature is expected to re-
deem this pledge, and should make no
delay in dong SO. The Office OF Gov
ernor's Private Secretary should be
abolished. The Deputy Sherifis should
be dispensed with, and in lieu thereof
the Boards Of County Commissioners
should have the power Of allowing
the Sheriff such assistance in the mai.
ter Of deputies as necessities require,
placing a reasonable limit on the
amount to be paid for such assistance.
The County Assessors should be
