That this wealth has since grown
to be $500, 900, 900 is stating it very
conservatiyely. The estimated in
come is $15, 000,0 900. At current rates
of interest this fortune, if kept in
tact, will in 25 years have grown to
be nearly 81, 900, 100000. The enol-
NOUS pile of money comprised in
81, 100000 is hardly to be realized
by most people. What figure a
Millionaire would be may perhaps be
best understood by saying that such
a man, if his wealth were all concen-
trated in Minneapolis, would hold q
clear title to the whole of the Twin
Cities and all their notwithstanding
all the lands and buildings as they
stand, and a considerable portion of
the state besides.
1t is therefore by no means GER
tain that John Swinton's prophecy
will not materialize before the cen
fury closes. The interest on the Van
derbilt wealth, at per cent, would
make it at the end of years, $40
900, 600; in 10 years, S448, 00O,O 600; in
25 years, $941, 600, 900; in so years,
$4,000, 100000.
But S per cent is only a conven-
tional trife in the face of the figures
of profit on the great Vanderbilt
roads. And as the Vanderbilts, along
with the Astors, have adopted poll
cy in bequeathing property, which
amounts in practice to English
primogeniture, it is by no means i'm
probable that they may bring forth
a Millionaire before the dawn of the
twentieth century.
These are facts which may well set
all classes of men interested in the
general welfare to thinking. The ia
bled wealth of the Caesars was palt"-
beside the prospective mountain
whose broadening shadows hang ON,
millions of honest toilers struggling
for decent competence.-M inneapo-

Superstitious Firemen of Company No. 13.
THE fire commissioners could do a
popular thing by changing the name
OF Engine company No. 49," said a
member of the paid fire department
last night. 1.-The men who were
killed at the recent disastrous fire
belonged to Engine company No. 10,
and some of the men look with dread
on that number.
Let them just change the num-
Der. Have no such number in the
department. 1t is just as easy as
not. The numbers could jump from
IL to IA as properly as the companies
IN the army jump from I to K. You
never hear of Company J, do you?
Of course not. That letter is dropped
as a matter of expediency, because l
and j look so much alike. So. for
expediency's sakea and to relieve some
of the boys from superstitious dread,
No. IS might be changed into the
next highA' number in the list. It
would do no harm and would please
the crew that is tired of carrying the
Tnlucky number. San Francisco

A Nonswarming Device.

An important paper to beekeepers is
furnished by Mr.. Frank Benton on the
Langdon nonswarming device for bees,
which is described, illustrated and pre-
sented for the first time to the public in
the May issue of Insect Life, the period
ical publication of the division of en-
tomology, United States department of
agriculture. Beekeepers have for many
years endeavored to prevent or at least
control natural swarming, but without
success. The benefits to be derived by
the suppression of swarming are mani
fold, and system has at last been de-
vised to meet this want. The apparatus
if fully explained and also the system,
which owes it's effectiveness to a nom
swarming attachment for beehives, by
the use of which the desire to swarm is
removed It is even thought possible
that by its constant use a nonswarming
ttrain of bees will in time be evolved-a
result that has long been desirable.
Other important advantages are claimed
for the system.

Fodder Corn.

Fodder corn should be put in at the
same time as the field corn, for it is bet
ter that the stalks should be well grown
and reach considerable degree of ma
turity before cutting, whether intended
for the silo or for curing as dry fodder.
Many believe that for the silo it should
be SO grown that it will develop ears al
most as abundantly as the field corn,
and that those ears should reach that
stage of growth where the kernels are in
or little past the milky condition, and
if we are not yet ready to accept that
opinion neither are we prepared to dis
pute it, says American Cultivator. The
points best settled are that it pays to
grow fodder corn; that it is good to feed
green when the pastures grow poor from
drought or other causes; that it is good
when kept in the silo, and good when
properly dried and kept for winter for
age, and that cutting it few days ear
lier or later does not make great differ
ence in its feeding value. No one can
state the exact stage Of growth when it
should be cut, as they do for clover or
timothy, and therefore the grower is not
SO dependent upon the weather.

A common ladder may readily be
changed to answer the purpose by hav-
ing middle piece fastened to the upper
rungs, as shown in the cut, Fig. 2. This
middle piece projects above the two sides
of the ladder as much as may be desira-
BILE. 1t may be necessary to use strap
iron in fastening this middle piece to the
upper and lower rounds to which it is
attached.
1t often happens that swarm alights
on place where it is not easy to set a
ladder conveniently against the tree,
whether the ladder terminates in one or
two points. Especially is this likely to
be the case with bushy fruit trees. The
swarm is away out at the end of an
overhanging limb, and it is hard to get
the ladder anywhere near it. In this
case fruit ladder such as the one shown
at Fig. serves the purpose well. The
principle is very old. This ladder is
made of common inch boards about
inches wide, a rest piece coming between
the two side pieces at the top and a bolt
passing through the three boards, hold
ing them close together. This third
piece is of the same width as the two
sides for little way at the upper end,
and for the rest of the way about an
inch narrower, so that the piece can be
folded up, allowing the ladder to be set
up against tree the same as an ordinary
ladder

Sit Down and Sow.

Broadcast sowing of oats and other
small grains. says farmer in Rural
New Yorker. may be done much quick
er and equally well by using steady
horse and lew, light wagon. Place in
front of the seat tub or box that will
hold one or two bushels of grain and
drive with one hand while sowing with
the other. You can save all of the time
spent in pacing off and setting stakes to
,ow by if you will drive crosswise of
the last narrowing. no matter how large
the piece of ground, for you can plainly
see the wheel marks and keep the proper
distance from the tracks your wheels
made the last time across. Many a
farmer who cannot walk and carry
grain to sow. but knows well how to
sow. had better adopt this plan than to
trust the seeding to the hired man or
some one not SO competent as himself.
recommend sowing all grain right and
left, as grass seed is sown. A slow
walking horse is best.

Feeding Stuff From nIolasses.

A company has been formed in Cothen,
Germany, to utilize beet molasses by
manufacturing It into feeding stuff
which can be conveniently handled and
transported. It has been found that by
mixing certain materials with molasses,
which also adds to it's value for food, a
dry, mealy food can be produced. Ex-
periments with this new molasses food
by farmers and at some of the expert
ment stations are said to have given ex-
cellent results. Arrangements are being
made to manufacture this food in large
quantities,

Cost of Cutting and Curing Hay.


Here is an estimate made by The
American Cultivator: The cost of cut
ting and curing hay and putting it in the
barn will necessarily vary much with
circumstances. In a good field, where
there are two tons of hay to the acre or
more, a man with a pair of good horses
can begin in the afternoon and NOW
three or four hours; the next morning,
after the dew is off, a smart boy can stir
it up with the tedder, and in the after
noon can draw it into windrows with the
horse rake. and if the weather has been
good it may be driven into the barn at
once, or if not quite cured enough it
may be punched and covered with hay
caps, to sweat during the night, when a
very little stirring the next day will fit
it for the NOW, and the cost of labor of
man, boy and teams need not be over 81
ton at fair wages. If the grass were
heavier than two tons to the acre, it
would not reduce the cost very much, as
not as many acres could be cut unless
the horses were very heavy, and it would
be more work to get it properly cured
and the drawing in and putting upon the

one case as in the other.
But where the grass is not more than
a half ton to the acre, and we have seen
many fields mown that fell far short of
that, to NOW with the hand scythe and
rake with hand rake and to give an extra
handling in airing because Of lack of fa-
cilities for getting it dried the same day,
two men would do very well to put in
six tons in week, and their time should
be worth in haying not less than $50, and
it would cost So per ton, and if one or
two showers delayed and made it neces-
sary to dry the hay several times it could
be increased much more than that.
Probably a fair average for a good farm
ing town or county would be from So to
$3.50 per ton as expense of curing and
putting in, but the poor farmers hay
will very likely cost him at least So per
ton more in expense than does the hay of
his better equipped neighbor upon richer
and more highly MANFRED land.

THE TURKEY.
Seasonable Hints Furnished by British
Fancier and Worthy of Note.

ocusOHuble kIlhts Furnlhneu by trltlSn
Fancier and Worthy of Note.
AT the age of about or 0 weeks, or
in. some cases "a little more, turkey cock
erels begin to develop their distinctive
characteristics. The carunculated skin
about the head and neck and little
later on the hornlke contractile comb
on the forehead also assume marked
character. AT this critical period the
system requires plentiful supply of nu-
tritious food, together with the very best
attention of the turkey raiser. Comfort
able dry sheds for retreat during the day
time, in case of rain or very hot sun, will
be of very great assistance.
Perching accommodation in large, well
ventilated houses free from drafts should
be provided for the poults. The distinct
i've sexual marks being well established
the youngsters lose the name of chick
ems and are termed turkey poults as soon
as they begin to throw, or, as it is gen.
orally called, shoot the red-a little
more care for short time, together
with little extra allowance of flesh
meat, and now and then bit of hemp
seed, will be well bestowed upon them.
The time of danger will soon be over, for
they will become every day stronger,
more vigorous and hardy, and the tur-
key poult, which was so very delicate
and required SO much attention as a
chicken, will after passing this stage
rapidly develop into the mammoth of the
the poultry yard, with constitution be-
fitting his extraordinary size and hand
some appearance.
However, in order to grow turkeys up
to the required standard of perfection
and also to compensate in some degree
for loss of size and stamina further
judicious course of feeding must be CON
tinued until large frame has been built
up and all the bone possible grown in as
short time as possible.
There was a time, and that not very
long ago, when the turkey was bred and
reared expressly to grace the tables of
those who could afford such luxuries at
Christmas. But at the present day these
noble birds are justly classed among
other fancy fowls. Glasses are provided
for them at many of our leading exhibit
tions, and prices are ruling higher, and it
must be very gratifying to breeders to be
able to note the number of first class
birds which change hands at very salts
factory prices at many of our best shows.
The increasing demand for first rate
specimens at remunerative prices should
therefore be an inducement for farmers
to go in more extensively for this hand
some and useful race of poultry.
