ground down level and sowed to rye to
plow down for corn or millet for fodder,
taking of in time to prepare for wheat to
be seeded down the following spring to
clover. Sometimes plant potatoes on
every third furrow when plowing down
the rye, and il it should be dry season
the potato crop will grow right along as
the rye seems to retain the moisture. l
have had potatoes thus planted that were
green and hourishing weeks after all or
dinary tender vegetation was blackened
by the frost. In digging potatoes so
planted, it Is better to plow them out.
It is enough to make man enthusiastic
to see the clean crop of tubers lying in
rich bed of decompose1 vegetation.
This plan of enriching the farm may be
carried into the garden patch, taking off
squash and other vegetables, and sowing
to rye to plow down for the same kind
of crops the following season. No mat
ter if it does not come up that fall,
it will come all right in the spring, and
only be a few days behind the earlier
sown crop.-Ameiican Agriculturist.

IMPROVEMENT OF POOR LAND,

The use of green crops for the improve
ment of poor land is not so easy as is
commonly thought. Green manure is
most effective on good land, and for the
purpose of n al ltaining its fertility, rather
than of res;o ing it when this has been
lost. The crop to be plowed under, OF
course, adds nothing to the land that has
not been taken from it. But it is very
rare that any land is so impoverished that
q thorough blowing and dressing of
lime will not bring some crop that may
be turned under with benefit. 1t might
be suggested that such land be plowed
two inches deeper than it has been pre-
viously, and given dressing of twenty
five or thirty bushels of lime to the acre.
Then sow with buckwheat in June, using
one-half bushel of seed per acre. Then
SOW one peck of clover seed per acre and
harrow it lightly with brush harrow or
plank drag. This covering of the seed
secures it against spell of dry weather
that might occur.
The buckwheat is harvested in the
usual manner, and the clover will make
sufficient growth to go through the
winter safely. The next year a crop of
hay is taken, and the second growth is
left on the land, to be turned under for
corn the next year. When the corn is
laid by the land is sown with clover again,
and the seed is covered in by light V
shaped harrow run through the rows.
The corn is worked level, so that the
seeding may be as even as possible. This
alienation may be made once more, when
the second growth of the clover is turned
under for wheat, and 200 pounds of
superphosphatc of lime may be applied
per acre. BY proceeding in this way
and plowing deeply the land may be
much improved in few years. New

ALCOHOL AS A POISON. .

That question" said learned female ply

Medical Society at its meeting last Saturday
night. could hardly believe l was living
in the close of the nineteenth century when
three sons of Esculapius undertook to in-
dorse such sentiments. How dill men live

tury? Since that time It has been proved
that alcohol is not food, but poison. 1t

the system as alcohol unchanged, is found In
the tissues and brain after death as alcohol,
and will burn as alcohol then. 1t Is not con-
verted into tissue building or blood making,
and not assimilate1 anywhere in the system

metamorphosis OF tissue in diseased body,
and may thus serve as a medicine, stim-
ulant to tide over the disease, as arsenic and
strychnine do good as medicine often, though
deadly poisons. That alcohol is assimilated

proved that it is not a necessary stimulant

RICH GROUND FOR EARLY POTATOES.

A rich, deep and dry soil is necessary
to grow early potatoes. We say dry, be-
cause the sets must be planted early, and
if wet and cold they will rot rather than
grow. This rich, deep soil, that is dry
early spring, will be all the moister dur
ing the droughts of summer. If the
potato tops eau be kept green a week
longer on one piece than another, 1t means
doubling the crop of marketable tubers.
A few days extra growth means making
the large tubers larger, and bringing
those that would have been fit only for
pig feed to marketable size. The crop
should have some fermented stable
manure to give the plants an early send
off. 1t will not cause early potatoes to
rot, though it may with the late crop

Oneer Chinese Commodities.

Some curious items are found in the
lists of China's trade statistics. For
instance the report of exports from
Ichaug, large city on the middle Yang
tse-Kiang, contains an item of $4,000
pounds of tiger bones, valued at nearly
$4,000. Only Chinese would think of
putting tiger bones to any other use
than that of fertilizer, but in China
tiger bones are used as medicine. They
impart to the invalid some of the tigers
strength. Another item is 5000 pounds
of old deer horns, worth S1700-an-
other medicinal agency with whose
peculiar properties Western medical
science is not yet acquainted.-Boston

LIQUOR IN GERMANY.

Whatever the mistakes made by Emperor
William Of Germany, he is not mistaken in
the deep interest he feels In the drink ques-
ton. Whether from the social, the military,
or the industrial point OF view, he discerns
the vital bearings Of this question. A ma
tion whose defenders are sodden with drink
leans on an unreliable support. A country
whose work-people are besotted with alcohol
and who waste their wages on that which
does them no good, is liable to get into the
lurch in the sharp, eager, unrestiug compe-
titions Of industrial manufacture and COM
merce. As leading military journal in
Germany declares, unless Germany redeems
herself from the saloon, she will look in vain
for competent defenders when the test OF
war is to be met. In Great Britain the ex-
penditure for drink the past year was con-
aderably over seven hundred million dol
lars; twice as large as the total national
revenue. II is blind and fatuous states
manship which would ignore such facts as
these. The Witness.

LIQUoR.sELLrNe AT rHz WORLDS FAIR

LlIbOh-hhLlsiNG Al NOhl4DS FAIR
The Christian at Work publishes the Ma.
tional Temperance Society's memorial TO the
Worlds Fair Commissioners against liquor
selling in connection with the Fair, and
makes vigorous editorial protest against
the preliminary action of the Board of Con-
troll in granting, for money consideration,
concessions to liquor-sellers. 1t says;
"The haste with which the local manage.
msnt came to decision on the liquor ques-
tion is in striking contrast with the dilatory
manner with which the requests OF the
friends OF Sunday closing have been treated.
The latter have been trying now for nearly
year to secure some decision on this point,
but no decisive action has been taken. The
question of the sale of liquor, however, was
decided, so far as the local directory could
decide 1t, without any delay. The local di-
rectory has, perhaps, taken this way of Civ
ing notice to the world at large that it has
no sympathy, as one of our daily papers has
expressed it, with 'Sabbatarians and tenn
perance cranks. 1t could hardly have taken
a more direct way to express that sentiment
But these Sabbatarians and temperance
cranks' compose very large and influential
portion of the people of the United States,
and it may be found in the end that it is
neither wise nor safe to ignore them en-
tirely."

Largest Olive Orchard in the World.

The largest olive orchard in the world
belongs to Mr.. Ellwood Cooper, of Santa
Barbara County, California. Mr.. Cooper
purchased the land occupied by this
mammoth grove of Oriental trees away
back in 1871, the entire orchard, includ-
lug the portions of it which are devoted
to the culture of English walnuts,
japanese persimmons, almonds, ETC.,
comprising 100 acres. The orchard
now has 10, 900 olive trees, 800 in full
bearing, the remainder being young trees
set out during the past year and half.
Besides the olive tree there are 5000
English walnut trees, 10000 almond
trees and about 1000 other fruit and nut
trees. The 10000 olive trees yielded
40,000 quart bottles of olive oil last
year, which found ready market at
$1.25 per bottle; the nut trees bore
thousands of bushels of nuts, to say
nothing OF the japanese persimmons.
Taken all in all, it has been calculated
that Mr.. Cooper's orchard brings an in
come of not less than $500 per acre
every year.-St. Louis Republican.

TEMPERANCE.
rHr DRuNKARD's Pos1r1oN.

At the hall OF the Central Temperance
Association in London last month, Mrs. An
nie Besant delivered a notable temperance
address, in the course Of which she said that
instead OF the drunkard's being mo mans
enemy but his own" he is "a focus Of poison
TO the community in which he has physical
presence" and It is the views which she
holds of the relationship of one man TO an
other, and the influence which he exerts up
on another, that have made her total
abstainer.
