Cutting Corn.

If the fodder is to stand in the field
until fed out, under ordinary conditions
the best plan is to cut and put up in good
sized shocks, as there is less loss by ex-
posture to sun, rain and wind than when
In small shocks. If, however, it is in
tended to shock out and haul under
shelter as soon as possible after it has
cured out, it will pay to put up in small
shocks, as it will cure out more rapidly
and be less work to handle.
Corn cut in good season and put mp in
small shacks, let stand only until well
cured out, and is then stored under
shelter, makes feed almost equal to
timothy hay. But if allowed to stand
until needed for feeding after three or
four months after cutting, if put up in
small shocks it's value will be greatly
lessened. But if put up in good sized
shocks there will be less waste or loss;
SO that to great extent the future man.
agement should determine the size OF
the shocks. Nebraska Farmer.

There are several kinds Of romance
at these places, but never or hardly
ever any that transgress the rules OF
propriety. There is the romance of the
brotherly and sisterly union of hearts in
the elderly couples that sit around IN
lonely spots along the fine smooth beach
and recount their spiritual aspirations,
and the more earthly but none the less
pretty talk among the younger members
of this great congregation. Sure, they
are spoonier than they are at Newport,

The upper part of the valley has been
famous in history as the residence of
Daniel Boone and as great salt pro-
ducing region, and is famous today as
the very home of coal. In spite of its
great mineral wealth the valley is poor
in cities-even in villages. Charleston
is yet among the ''to be's," but it has a
future, from the very fact of its loneli-
sch in the midst of wonderfully rich
area.
It has situation, too, which ought to
make it Mecca for tourists. Sur

full drives, and with the mountains in
the distance and the river creeping

every hill small green mountain.

Two summers ago was struck by
romance which was being enacted be-

but we'll featured and we'll built, and
two young men. The one who brought
her hired her chair, and then went off
for some refreshments. While he was
gone the other came and in hurried
tones asked her to marry him. She hesi-
tated little, when he said, "Ive got er
razzer here if ye don't" So she said
yes, and took his arm and walked off,
and the other one came back with ginger
ale and cakes to find her gone. Last
week l saw the couple again. They
were evidently married, and she ap-
peared to be in delicate health, and he
was very kind to her. After awhile I
heard him say: eye feel better, don't ye,
Julie? Ye've got lubly color since we
come down."
And she was as black as ink! The
great dry goods stores of the city, and
the factories, and the workshops send
thousands of pretty girls Sundays and
Saturday afternoons down to the island,
and there they wander around by twos
and threes, or with their chosen young
men, with whom they are excepting
steady company"

places look upon romance as a serious
thing.
The bathing suit is modern mirror
of truth. No man can hide his short
comings in one any more than a girl
can, and therefore it behooves the
thin ones TO be very modest and proper
and do their bathing when no one is
looking if they don't want to destroy
their hopes for romance forever.

romance fourishes. To be sure, it is not

LONG BRANCH, Aug. 1.-THE Long
Narragansett girls fairly live on the sands
and in the surf, the Long Branch girls go
to the races and on lovely long rides and
sit around in gorgeous gowns. One rea-
son for this perhaps is that thebeach is
not so fine and there are fewer flirting
places along the shore, and it is less of a
custom to sit ana chat under the well
come privacy of big umbrella. True.
the moon and stars-all lovers friends
shine just as fair and the murmur of
the waves is just as sweet and melan-
choly, but it isn't the fashion down
here to sit around in cozy, dark places
and tell pretty stories about eternal, I'M
dying love, pre-existence in some bright
star where the two newly acquainted
ones had known and loved each other
@ons and 8ons ago. All the dark cor
ners are monopolized by naughty mar
ried ladies and their husbands-or some
one else's husbands.
Long Branch girls have their regular
hours for surf bathing, and this is gen.
orally done in rather perfunctory way
as a duty, solemn and often dangerous
duty to ones self. The beach here is
narrow and the water deep, and bathing
becomes an imminent danger if one does
not give ones full and entire attention
to the business on hand. The vicious
waves destroy all sentiment as they
catch girl up and roll her over seven
or eight times.
The hotels at Long Branch, with their
pleasant porches and cozy chairs, afford
the places where young romance is
Matched under artificial heat into life
that lasts from two hours to ten days
and perhaps lifetime. Here congre-
gate the greatest number of actresses
and women whose husbands own fast
horses and men who love to see race.
Their romance generally consists in see
ing all their hard earned, round silver
dollars transferred to the pockets of the
foolsellers-or is it pool? I am not very
sure, but one thing is certain, and that
is that the money is gone.
Whose has not got pocket full of
money has no business at Long Branch,
