REFORM IN PENSIONS.

The Present Administration Saving tho
Peoples Money.
WASHINGTON, July 14.-It was learned
at the pension Office today that 1850 PEN
sioners have been suspended up to date
under Secretary Hoke Smiths recent
ruling. The suspensions are not con-
fined to any particular locality, but are
we'll distributed throughout the coun-
try. No pensioner has yet been dropped
under the decision, for the reason that
the 60 days allowed pensioners in whieh
to make proof OF disability have mott
elapsed.
A statement prepared at the pensio2
bureau shows that between April 1st,
last, when the present administration of
the bureau took formal direction OF it's
affairs. and July let, l7,044 original GER
tiicates of all kinds were Issued. OF
these, 1854 we're invalid certificates un-
der the act of June u, 1890, and 9043
widows certificates, under said act,
making total OF IL 1897 original certifi-
Gates issued under that act for the first
three months of Democratic control of
the pension bureau. The total number

1898, was 1928, of which 99,207 were
under the act of June 27, 1890, and 244
were issued 10 army nurses. There were
also issued during the past fiscal year
33 1893 certificates granting additional
pension under the act Of June 27, 1890.
During the fiscal year ending June
80, 1892, there were issued 222, 1897 orig
inal certificates, q net increase to the
rolls of 1919, ,90S. AS the total number of
certificates issued during the fiscal year
Just closed was but 121. .628, it would
seem that 10l, 300 less certificates had
been issued for the fiscal year 1898, than
for the fiscal year 1892, and aa the loss
to rolls during the past fiscal year from
death, re-marriage, etc.. will amount
to st least $4,000, it will be seen that
the net increase to the rolls during the
past fiscal year will be but 9l,628,
against l99 ,9OS, ora difference of 10S, ,2S0
less increase for the fiscal year 1893.
This statement is made as a refutation
of the statement that not eingls pension
cerciticate has been issued under the de-
pendent pension law since the present
administration came into power.

What u Young Man Did.


A college graduate had hardly received
his diploma before he was compelled to
face poverty and family disgrace. His
father, who had been reputed to be
wealthy, was an embezzler and fugi-
tive from justice. His mother and sisters
were entirely dependent upon his modest
earnings in brokers' Office.
He had planned taking an advanced
course of professional study in architec-
ture. His ideal occupation had to be
abandoned. He was in love with a
charming girl. but ceased to visit her
since marriage was out of the question
An opportunity for years travel in Eu-
rope at a friends expense was given up.
Year after year he maintained hard.
bitter struggle to make living at un-
congenial employment for his mother
and sisters, to support his father abroad
and to overcome prejudice caused by the
family disgrace. He became a success
full business man, but was prematurely
gray at 40. His life was haunted by the
ghosts of his youthful hopes.
Such lives do not furnish material for
exciting stories. They are dull and pro-
sale, but are nevertheless heroic. To
give up all that is dear to youth and to
be loyal to family obligations sometimes
is browning triumph of unselfshness.

Thrashine Wheat In the Field.

Thrashing wheat out of the field is
favorite method in all extensive grain
growing regions. There are several OBJ
jections to this way of handling wheat,
but its advantages are also great. If the
season be showery, some damp wheat
will be thrashed, as one can hardly help
it. A damp butt will dampen the grain,
and when the weather permits one should
turn the shocks over before beginning to
haul, letting the butts lie toward the
sun. A heavy dew is as bad as light
shower on the shocks. If one does not
grow wheat very extensively, it is far
better to stack or NOW it away, letting
it go through sweat, as this brightens
the grain, makes storage safe and per-
mits one to put the straw near the barn.
This last mentioned advantage is impcr-
tant, as all straw should be converted
into manure when possible and returned
to the land. according to correspond
emit in The Prairie Farmer.

A BEE ESCAPE.

The idea of bee escape was born in
the shape of little cone, through which
bees could pass, but not return. Time
has metamorphosed it into various FORMS
In England they are called superclean-
ers. A board is made of the size to ex-
actly fit case of sections, with round
hole about an inch in diameter, and the
escape fits over it. When it is desired to
remove the bees from a case of sections,
it is raised up, the escape placed under
meath. If this is performed in the even
ing, the bees will all have gone below by
morning. By removing bees from the
sections in this way no smoke has to be
used to discolor the white honey or give
it a smoke flavor. The bees leave quiet
~ without tearing open the sealed cells
and are not irritated and on the warpath
for days after it's arrival.

Mre. ns.rissn's Illustrated Descriptions Of
Bee Escape.
Mrs. Harrison, whose success in bee
keeping entities her remarks to consider
alton, says in communication to The
Prairie Farmer that the trade in honey
now demands that it shall be stored in
enc pound sections of the smoothest and
whitest wood and that the honeycomb
shall be of snowy whiteness and free
from any discolorations. In order to
preserve its pristine loneliness it should
be removed from the bees as soon as
sealed to keep it from being travel
stained. as they frequent muddy pools
and are not always careful to wipe their
feet. Bee culture for several seasons has
been under cloud, owing to low prices
for the product and poor seasons. and
beekeepers have sought out many inven-
tons to cheaper its production and have
given to us tle bee escape.

Echoes From the Experiment Stations.
During two seasons considerable sue
cess has been attained in potato culture
in the Arkansas valley, where it was
popularity supposed that this crop would
not grow.
At the Oregon station, where 25 varie-
ties of peas have been tested, New Alas
ka was the earliest, followed by Daniel
O'Rourke, American Wonder, Blue Peter
md Extra Early.
No certain remedy has yet been re-
ported for the corn crambid, a worm that
feeds upon the corn plants beneath the
surface of the soil.
At the Tennessee station, where 16 va
rieties of beets were tested, the follow
ing gave the best results: Bastian's Early
Turnip, Bastian's Half Long Blood,
Eclipse, Egyptian, Extra EARLY Bassano
At the West Virginia station it has
been decided that it is not profitable to
use nitrogenous fertilizers in large guam
hties or use them in ordinary quantities
alone as fertilizers for growing wheat.
The combination of potash, nitrogen and
phosphoric acid produces the largest
Field. Phosphoric acid alone produces
very satisfactory results. Probably the
most profitable application Of CONNER
dial fertilizers would be potted ash in the

the form Of dissolved South Caroline
