suppose it is not much exaggerated We
know, who are brokers and in the bank
ing business here, the influence of his
ready money He has got the best mon
ey in the country; it is all liquid money.
What do you mean by liquid money?
Money which flows like a liquid-like
quicksilver. according to the inclina-
ton, up or down. The Astors,- for ex-
ample, do not have liquid money; their
money is in real estate, upon which they
could not realize in tight times as well
as in easy times But Gould's money is
here in time of panic as readily as in
flush times
Almost any time he can withdraw
from the market $12, ,000, 900, or can keep
it loaned Now, the bank surplus is
only 100000 GOO. So you see the pro-
digious power that money has in the
mere ebb aud flow of it. When Mr.
Gould withdraws it, as he is said to do,

nature of his property.
His property is always earning money
in cash. If he resolves to purchase some
costly piece of property, like the Union
Pacific railroad, he may put his money
out to let interest accumulate upon it.
He is not, however, a money lender in
the sense of Russell Sage, who lends
money to earn money. Mr.. Gould lends
money with an object in view, in the
nature of a large merchant. Yet he is
without the conditions of such mana
polite person
"A friend of mine not long ago bor-
rowed 81 ,000. 900 from him in the midst
of the panic. This man did not conceal
his temporary necessity, but said to Mr..
Gould, or rather wrote to him, that
whatever interest he was minded to ask
would be satisfactory. He says that
Gould said to him, go along until you
get through, and we will see about the
rate then" When they came to settle
all that Gould asked him was ordinary
interest-6 per cent. Such things he
does quietly without further remark,
and hence many persons who are not
very intimate with him, but have had
exchanges of that kind to take place,
think of him with rs much respect as
they speak of him.
1t must be remembered, however, that
he has not lived this life and encountered
long hostility and abuse to become a
mere philanthropist. He is a gigantic

The old idea of 40 years ago was that facial
eruptions were due to "blood humor," for
which they gave potash. Thus all the old Sarsa-

actually creates more eruptions. You have no

ESSENTIAL TO GROWTH.
Some of the Advantages of Applying Lime
to the Soil.

Some of the Advantages of Applying Lime
to the Soil.
Lime is an essential to plant growth,
but only small quantity is required,
and It is rarely necessary to apply for
this especial purpose.
The principal advantage in applying
lime to the soil is that it tends to make
the plant food already in the soil avail
able. Wheat requires considerable
nitrogen to make the best growth and
yield, and lime applied on the majority
of soils tends to make this essential
element available. 1t can often be APP
piled to land intended to be sown to
wheat with profitable results, but to
keep applying lime and getting rid of
the nitrogen in this way often proves
injurious to the soil in the end, especial
ly if no material is applied that con-
tains good per cent. of nitrogen to
take its place.
Lime is also valuable for decompos-
ing vegetable matter in the soil. One
Of the best plans of using is to apply
broadcast before blowing under clover
or other green crops, especially if the
land is to be seeded to wheat.
On stiff clay soil lime can often be
used beneficially, helping to make it
more loose and friable.
When used as fertilizer, or rather
to help make plant food in the soil
available, it should be applied broad
cast over the surface after blowing and
then worked into the soil with har-
row or cultivator short time before
sowing the seed.
In some cases lime may be applied to
land intended to be sown to grass. 1t
is also valuable for cabbage and corn,
especially when good application of
fresh, coarse manure has been given.
Just how much can be used must be de-
termined by the condition of the soil
and the cost Of the lime. Prairie

RURAL BREVITIES.

CAREFUL observation throughout ar
extended portion of almost any of ouI
best farming districts will show that
not one farmer in ten exercises due
care in the management of the manure
produced, even allowing it to go tc
waste while buying commercial ferti-
Gzers to take its place.
IT is good thing to be systematic
Teach your boys this. Let them be-
gin by keeping record of everything
of the weather, of the work done on
the farm, the loads taken in of each
crop harvested, the cost of everything
bought or used, and the inco me from
the sales made. 1t is a good practice
WHEN commencing to feed out the
silage this fall keep in mind that to OBJ
tain the best results it should not be
fed alone. Combine it with clover hay
and you have an excellent coarse
fodder. Then for your cattle, and for
making milk and beef, use in con.
meal, etc.
TIE Chinese are the best gardeners
in the world, not even excepting the
Germans. The reason for this is that
they count all labor well spent that
adds an iota to the richness of the soil.
They save fertilizers and manures of
all sorts with methodical care that is
wholly unknown to our advanced agri-
culture.
Root crops cannot be considered di-
rectly as fat or flesh producing. but
they make an agreeable change of diet
and are valuable to use in connection
with more concentrated foods, such as
corn, bran, oil meal, etc Consisting
mostly of water, they have loosening
tendency that must be counterscted
with heavier food.
IT is conceded that when a COW has
good pasturage in summer she should
produce more milk and butter than
when fed on dry food in the winter,
but at all seasons of the year the cows
should have a proportion of grain;
corn meal and bran being excellent,
especially when the cows have recent
ly calved and are in full flow Of milk.

A Scientific Description of the Peculiar
Process.

Scientific Description of the Peculiar
Process.
Foremost in their geographic import
ance, and in the intricacy and signifi-
canoe of their geologic structure and
origin, are the mountain belts which
consist of folded rock formations. The
strata forming the upper part of the
earths crust are bent up and down in
long. nearly straight or curving, wave
like ridges and troughs, and where
their disturbance was greatest the sue
cessive ridged folds are closely pressed
together. The waves of the rock struc-
ture are then pushed to such steepness
that their sides become parallel with
each other, and the entire fold is driven
forward into an inclined position. The
order of the strata on the lower side of
the oppressed fold is thus inverted; the
originally highest and last formed de-
posits there lie beneath older beds, in
an overturned SERIES Subaerial erosion

the crests of the closely folded strata.

section, crossing mountain ranges, passes
from older to newer beds, and onward
from newer to older, in several alter
nations, having throughout the whole a
nearly constant steep dip. Owing to
the interbedding of hard and enduring
sandstone, quartzite, gneiss, and other
rock formations, with more easily
eroded limeStones, shales, incoherent
sandstones, or schists, the erosion COM
monty PRODUCES a new topography,
making hollows and long valleys where
the most erosible beds have been re-
moved, and leaving ridges and noun
tain ranges of the harder rocks. More
than this, when erosion has been con-
tinued through very long periods, it
tends toward the ultimate result of re-
moving the upward curved or anticlinal
portions of the great folds and sparing
the originally lower downward curved
or synclinal portions, until valleys take
the places which were originally occu-
pied by the highest upheavals, while
the original troughs, where the rocks
were most compacted by pressure, re-
main now as the principal mountain
ridges. Under denudation, the folded
mountainous belt fulfills the prophecy,

Last year great wall went up from
the dairy region of certain eastern
state at the low returns for milk prod
ucts. ''There Is no money in it; we are
keeping our cows at a loss," cried the
majority. We We're, however, person
ally cognizant OF many dairymen who
were actually laying up money on those
very prices. They were not close-fsted
misers either; but farmers enjoying all
of the good things of life. What was
the secret then of their making both
eLds meet and having a surplus left
over, on an income that their neighbors
found insufficient to balance their an
nuai outlay?
1t was simply frugality, or in other
words wise economy that did it. The
farm was made to yield, aside from the
dairy, nearly enough to supply the fam
lily treasury so that at least a part of
the dairy income could be applied to
farm improvements or invested else
where. This is not fancy sketch, but

labor-saving age, when has it or when
will it ever become profitable bust

the dairy as quickly as it will in any
other business, and to succeed at milk
husbandry we must be frugal in dairy
matters as we'll as in others There

The greatest obstacle to healthy,
vigorous growth in celery plants. just

set out, is the burning sun of midsum-
mer and early fall, especially if its eff
fects are given still greater emphasis
by accompanying drought. If little
shade can be provided in some way the
plants will grow even with more thrift
than if given extra stimulus in the
way of manuring, and, perhaps, irri-
cation. Perhaps we can manage to
provide shade by setting our plants in
a row on the north side of row of
corn or other tall growths, or in the
center between two rows of trees in
an orchard of from two to four years
planting. A row of white plume celery
