Oh EnwIiSh Meadow

Probably there are no meadow IN the
world 50 good as those in England or SO
Old. Yet from the early AngIo-Saxon
times old meadow has been distinguished
FROM "pastures' and has always beer
scarce. Two-thirls Of what is now es-
tablisned meadow land still shows the
marks of ridge and furrow. and from
the great zine required to make a
meadow-teH years at least Oh the best
laHd, a hundred on the worsC-nen have
always been reluctant to break up old
pasture.
The ancient meadows, with their great
trees AID close, rich turf, are the sole
portion Of the earth's surface which
modern agriculture respects and leaves
in peace. Hence the excellence Of the
meadows OF England and the envy Of
the American.-LonGon Spectator.

The Abuse of EypnOtism.

An army Of 1nisCreantS misuse hvp-

the mtsmerized condition Of the latter.

son for their existence, unless it be in a
correctional or penal institution. Last
ly there are the artists, professors or

the hypnotic process. Some Of these are
honest&nd upright, others are ~unscrupu-
lous and lne"Ceuary wretches.
All of them, however, are to be care

are to be avoided even more by young

The Blue Eetch.

A particularly beautiful wild flower
from the Old World, Tow getting COM
mon in New England and giving pleas
urc to the lover of wild flower scenery,
is the blue vetch, Ficia cracca. | was
particularly glad to see it come off a con
auerOr in a battle with the well known
couch grass, which usually acts the
Goliath among other vegetation. 1t
usually crowds out everything, and our
PENNSYLVANIA farmer regards it As one
Of his worst enemies.
On the ~seacoasts Of New England,
however, the yield of this grass is sim
ply enormous, and the agriculturist en-
ploys it largely for hay. It's roots are
annoying to the nor southern farmer,
as every little piece grows. 1t can never
be got rid of. But here, where the
same field is moved for an indefinite
number of years, it is Of no consequence
how the roots hold on. The more tena-
cious the better. But it is such a bold
warrior among Vegetation that nothing
can grow where it grows, and a field Of
couch grass looks more like a field Of
some light kind of wheat under a careful
farmers hands.
Timothy grass here will not stand the
attacks. Battalions of weeds contest
the field with it. Couch grass alone
sends forth defiance. But the blue
vetch is a masterpiece. 1t grows up
with the grass and at length overtOps it,
and forms beautiful blue patches over
the whole field, looking like brigh5
cnruleau Ia kpS over q gray arid Main.
Fortunately the farmer does not mind,
as it is as agreeable to the cattle as the
grass. 1t is one Of those rare instances
where great beauty and utility go hand
in hand together, and strike up a truly
happy marriage.-Ihomas Meehan in
Philadelphia Ledger.
