WHEN TO SOW WHEAT.

The Soil should BE in Condition to In.
duce Quick Termination.
The time Of sowing will v:sry with
the season as the manner .ot sowing
will depend on the condition of. the
soil. :3
While it is always best to SOW in
good season in order that thu plants
shall have time to make good growth
before cold weather sets in it is rarely
good plan to sow until the soil is in q
good condition to induce Il quick germi-
patton Of the seed. 1t is important tc
have the soil in good filth with enough
moisture for termination. Sowing in
good season and with the soil prepared
in q suitable condition less seed will be
needed. while thereafter more vigor-
GUS growth will be secured than if the
seed is sOwn under less favorable con.
ditions.
Early seeding is always best when
the conditions will admit, but it is often
the case when the season is dry and
hot it will bea&sest to defer until later.
Then, with the fields infested with Hes
81 IN fly or where there is an unusual
number OF grasshoppers. it will often
be be It TO- defer thes seeding until there
has been = hard, billing frost.
Under such conditions il is q good
plan to make all the preparations pos.
>ible in advance, and then when the
proper time comes push the work of
seeding as nlnch as possible: In nearly
all cases it pays to use the seed drill.
Not only will the seed be&covered at a
more uniform depth, but it will be dis
tributed more evenly in the drill rows
Wheat that is drille,. is less liable to be
injured by thawing and freezing than
that sown broadcast and narrowed in.
1t will nearly always prove mors
economical to 90 over the land once or
twice more and get it into the proper
condition, even 1T an increased ex.
pense, rather than to risk the crop with
the soil not fully prepared. Use plenty
of seed; five pecks will, be enough il
sown in good season and with the sol,
in good filth, while the quantity
must be increased according to the con.
dition of the soil and the time of sow.

Some where late in the forties or early

remember to have seen Mr.. Clay and
Mr.. Calhoun ''tipping," as I presume
it would now be styled, in the old SEN
ate chamber, now the United States
supreme courtroom. 1t was behind the
vice presidents chair-a small space
where was a table only large enough
for a tray, on which were placed a
pitcher of water, a single black hottie
containing good article of whisky,
'owl of sugar, spoon or two, a few
glasses, a plate of crackers and an.
other of cheese. This clay OUT would
suffice for a day-perhaps longer.

On the occasion of which speak, the
two distinguished senators met after .

manners and bearing being Of the high.

The meeting was doubtless by COM

fashion of Edmunds and Thurman in

finest on the continent. There are also
innumerable displays in which the
blending of color and the triumphs of
mechanical art are combined, and there
are also fish,, electric, carriage, and
other DEPARTMENT. The expense of
running an exposition of this kind is
OF course enormous, but the attendance
is 80 uniformly large that it is only
necessary to charge 25 cents for adj
mission. This trihing payment in
cludes all the departments, as well as a
seat at the great Gilmore concerts, which
are alone worth far more than the
cost of ticket.
The beauties of the street illumina-
tions increase as the season wears on.
The illustration Is of the Santa Maria
arch, one of the series of set pieces de-
signed to illustrate the discovery of
America and the great achievements of
Columbus. To the visitor it appears as
though the Worlds fair were already
in progress, and the cheers which greet
the world discovery panorama every IL
Illumination night are remarkable. Over
seventy-five thousand lights are used,
the majority of them electric, and the
effect is best described as dazzling.
The season is drawing to a close and
procrastination is no longer permissa-
bic. All the railroads are making low
rates to tho city of st. Louis, and
prompt inquiry should be made of the
nearest station agent for details. There
will be grand Examinations on the
evening of the 18th and Goth, and
visits should be arranged so as to take
in these nights. There need be no fear
as to finding accommodations at rea-
sonahle rates, for the merchants have
organized hotel and boarding bureau.
which will engage rooms or board for
visitors without charge and guarantee
regular rates.
