Wisdom Indeed.

Some men with ten acres under pillow
are miserable till they are in debt for a
gang plow, a four horse binder and an in
terest in a stallion and a steam thrasher.
Two hens and rooster are enough to
make some OF our enterprising western
farmers sleepless till they own OF are in
debt for forty dollar incubator.
Last spring we were talking with a
machine "expert" expert in more ways
than one), who was on his way to cen
trail Dakota farmer to sell him steam
thrasher. The same man had told us
the fall before that he had sold this very
man all or more machinery than he
could ever hope to pay for, and so we
asked him what security he expected to
get.
well" he said, 81 happened to hear
that his wife's father had given her a
good span of horses and 100 fine sheep
to start them again, and if get there
first they are mine. l know I can sell
him a machine; be is no hand with such
things and | shall clean him out in q

With regard to lawn tennis, which is
such favorite pastime of our sex, there
are quite number of us who seem to
imagine that underskirts should be dis
pensed with when playing, as being
calculated to impede the movements.
This, in my opinion, is altogether
wrong. On the contrary, pretty and
dainty underpetticoats should be worn
on these occasions, as they are displayed
far more frequently in playing lawn
tennis than most tennis players seem to
imagine.
The sport, however, which is the most
healthful and saIutary of all for women
Is fencing, an art which requires quick
ness of eye, of thought ana of hand. It
serves to develop and to bring into full
play the muscles of our bodies, and of
our brain as well, if indeed there be
such a thing as muscle in the brain. /
confess that for my own part it is my
favorite sport, and to me there are few
things more delightful than the Grip
este du tac-au-tac; that is, the sudden
thrust made instantly after the parry,
without luaoing. CARRIE CARELESS.

THE SEEDED eoR WHEAT.
A Sensible Talk by Farmer on a Sub
ject of General Interest.

a Sensible Talk by Farmer ON Sub
ject of General Interest.
1t used to be the practice to pillow the
ground as soon as possible after harvest,
skimming the ground, that is, blowing
rs shallow as possible, so the stubble and
weeds were turned under. Later on, or
just before seeding, a second blowing
would be given deeper and more thor
ough than the first, and then sufficient
narrowing or dragging would be given
to fine the soil, it being considered an
item to have the soil fine and mellow and
as deep as possible. Gradually change
was made, and only che blowing was
given early, but deeper, and then the
surface, to the depth of three or four
inches, put in as fine filth as possible,
leaving the under soil firm, it being con-
sidered better to do this than to have the
soil loose and mellow as deep as plowed.
A Missouri farmer, in The Farm, Field
and Stockman, says:
In my vicinity the practice usually
followed is to pillow but once, and that
late, pasturing the field after the crop is
taken off, until ready to pillow. One rea-
son for this is that many farmers con-
slider 1t an injury to the soil to plow and
let lie exposed to the hot sun of summer
Because this is the plan largely followed
is not conclusive proof that it is the best
One OF the most profitable crops of wheat
ever raised was on land that had been
in corn. The corn was cut off close to
the ground and hauled off and shocked
up in lot. The cultivation had been
continued late and the soil was clean.
After the corn was taken off a thorough
narrowing was given and the wheat
sown with the drill. This left the sur
face of the soil in good condition.
The condition and character of the
soil will make difference. In dry
season the soil must be worked to suff-
Gent depth to secure sufficient moisture
to induce a good termination of the seed,
while with the same soil in favorable
season a shallower working of the soil
would give better results. The deeper
and more thoroughly the soil is worked
in the fall the more liable it is to freeze
deep in the winter, and while it is the
freezing up and thawing out that in
many seasons Injuries the wheat the most,
it is quite an item to avoid this as much
as possible. 70 make rule best to fol,
low under all conditions is impossible
for with large proportion of farm work
the season and the soil must be consid-
cred, and what will be best at one time
will fail at others; hence the farmer must
rely to considerable extent upon his
Judgment as to the best preparations to
be given under the conditions he is work
ing, rather than following some one else
working under entirely different circum-
stances.

No words are sufficient to express
the full measure Of praise due those
noble ladies who labored with untir

undertakings and achievements Good
men revere such women, they love

and become the laughing stock of the
world around us. Let US have actual
necessities in and about our county
buildings. To not have them is not
economy, it is our shame and our
detriment We have not said one
half what VIC desired but space and
time has shut down upon us for the
present, bat for God sake cease
embracing a policy which you know
full well to be entirely incompatible
with the public welfare; a policy
which in Caesars day would have
caused the Roman senate to meet and
declare you to be an enemy to the
public interest, licensing your death
at the hands of the populace.

The Gloves the Champions Wear.

The celebrated Police Gazette boxing
glove is rapidly gaining favor with the
champion boxers. as ii is VERY rare thing
nowadays to hear of any other glove being
used. Peter jackson, the famous colored
champion, who recently knocked the much
talked of Slavin out, ordered from Richard
X. Fox pair of l0-ounce terra Gotta gloves
to use while in training, and the managers
of the recent Jackson-Slavin fight ordered
pairof 4-ounce terra Gotta gloves. These
We're used in the recent fight before the
members of the National Athletic Club.
John l.. Sullivan, the champion of
champions, is very fond of the Police Ga
zette champion glove and will use no other.
While in the west he ordered set of To-.
ounce white kid gloves to be used on the
stage and says they were the finest gloves
ever used, and in the future would use
them in all his fights and exhibitions

Some farmers complain of their
burdens and point to agricultural
mortgages rs proof that the farms
carry an unjust and unequeal load
Investigation of census reports
discloses thet city property, real and
personal in the United States, is
more heavily mortgaged than farm
property. There is hardly business
without going into debt and carrying
mortgages.
