THE RAPE PLANT.
As Grown In the United States--Adapta-

As Grown In the United States-Adapta,
bility of Soils In the Rotation.
There is a season after corn has been
harvested and before the advent of win
ter during which we must depend on
grass rs the source of food for our flocks
and herds; otherwise we must draw upon
winter stores to feed them. The need of
some useful fodder plant of this season
has long been recognized, and now Thorn
as Shaw, professor of agriculture az the
Ontario college, gives the assurance that
the rape plant is adapted to large areas
in the United States. In a report to the
department If agriculture he says:
The soils of the prairies will doubtless
be found suitable for this crop where the
summers are not too dry and warm. And
h large sections in all parts where the
climatic conditions resemble those Of On
.ario it will doubtless be found that rape
will grow readily. This would mean
that rape can be successfully grown in
oil the states bordering on the Dominion
Of Canada and in several Of those that
lie farther TO the south. Whether it
would furnish winter pasture in the more
southerly states and whether it would
grow seed AS paying crop in these can
he determined only by actual test The
heat of the sun in such ATTITUDES would
doubtless he fatal toits successful growth

How Dolly Madison Won Her Husband.

Mrs. Madison was unquestionaby the
most popular woman that has ever pre-
sided over the social life of the Executive
Mansion. She was extremely beautiful in
person and gentle and courteous in man.
ner. Consummate tact made good her lack
Of liberal education. Madison first met
her when he was a member of Congress at
Philadelphia, and, with Aaron Burr, board
ed at the house Of her father Mr.. PAYNE.
She was then the widow Todd.
The future president promptly fell in
love with her. But having some doubts
about her mental qualities, he one day
handed her q book TO read and asked her
to give him her opinion of It. She gave
the book 10 Burr with the request that he
would write letter for her to copy. This
he did with his usual brilliance; and Mad
lson, on receiving the note, was fully con-
WINGED that his lady-love's intellect was
equal to her beauty. He at once offered
himself and was accepted. -ScriJaer's

! sit upon my OK team, calm
Beneath the lazy sky,
And crawl contented through the land
And let the world 20 by.
The thoughtful OK has learned to wait
And nervous impulse smother,
And ponder long before he puts
one foot before the other.
And men with spanking teams pass by
And dash upon their way,
As II 1t were their hope to find
The worlds end in day.
And men dash by in palace cars,
ON me dark frowns they cast,
As the lightning driven Present frowns
Upon the slow old Past.
W hat do they chase, these men of steam
Their smoke flags white unfurled,
Pulled by the roaring fire fiend
That shakes the reeling world
hat do you seek, We men Of steam.

II this, Il this the railroad line
That leads to happiness,
And when you've swept across the day
And dashed across the night
Is there some station through the hills
Where men can find delight
An, toward the Depot OF content
Where no red signals stream
go by OK team just as quick
As you can 60 by steam.

How to Construct a Frame Bent Foun-

Good Roads, "and that the scene of the
washout is one where the banks are too

all combined to permit Of forling. The
people will expect us to repair the crossing

quickest remedy, and if material is ut

provide "a crossing over which teams
may pass in safety.
