Farming is n business, and the man
who would make real success of it
nowadays must be good business
man. He must be an all-round good
business manager. Besides buying and
selling and the employment of labor
there are the planting, cultivating and
harvesting of crops, the breeding, feed
ing and care of live stock, the use of
machinery and hundred other impor-
tant things which require intelligence,
skill and executive ability of high
order. There are thousand little de-
tails of the business to be carefully
looked after to make the farm do its
best. Taking everything into consider
alton, the wonder is that there are not
more failures on the farm than there
are. No business in the city would
long stand under the easy-going man
agement of the average unsuccessful
farmer.-American Farmer.

The corn kitchen at the worlds fair

this should be the means of disseminat-

many palatable ways in which this val
liable product can be utilized as human
food. Our own people need educating
upon the subject as well as foreigners.

cornmeal and Johnny cake" when as
a matter of fact there is much still to
be learned in relation to the best
methods to be pursued to attain the
most satisfactory results. Some of our
big milling interests ought to take the
matter up for exhaustive experiments

HILARY HEReERT's WAR STORY

One Young Hero Who Wore the Blue and
Another Who Wore the Gray.
I never saw more glorious conduct
than that displayed in these two in
stances by two youths in their teens,
one wearing the blue and the other the
gray. The first was in the second days
fight. My regiment had charged right
up among the guns of union battery,
whose men and horses had nearly all
been killed. There was one gun to
which four, horses had been attached.
The two rear horses had been shot
down in harness. The two leaders were
apparently unhurt and on one of them
sat q lad, head erect, vigorously plying
his whip on the other horse and striv-
ing to save his gun. He was devoting
his whole soul to that purpose, utterly
unmindful of our men, who were surg
ing about him. He was literally lilpe

could have touched him with my sword.
and was just about to beg him to sur
render when shots rang out from be-
hind me and he dropped from his horse,
dead as be fell. He might have saved
himself but he seemed determined to
save that gun or die. 1t was subj imc,
but can never think of it without a
shudder at the horrors of the sacrifices
of that war.
The other instance was on the third
day, in the height of terrific artillery
duel that was preliminary to the great
charge. Our men We're in line awaiting
the word to advance. In front of us,
riding deliberately up and down the
line, was 4 handsome youth in gray,
mounted on fleet-lool>ing iron-gray

his horse as spirited as an Arabian.
The flying bullets and shrielsing

he rode to and fro up and down the

coaxLng swarms to Remain.

Twenty years ago New York bee
keepers coaxed absconding swarms to
remain by this method, according to the
American Bee Journal: We would take
broom handles and wrap rags on the
large end, making a roll about ten
inches in length, and about three inches
through the center, tapering off small
er at the ends. The rags we would
saturate with melted bceswax. The
other end of the handle is sharpened so
as to stick in the ground. We used one
handle for every four hives. Nearly
every swarm that issues will cluster on
some of these prepared sticks. The
sticks should be stuck in the ground
about four rods in front of the hives
The scent of the wax probably has a
good deal to do with the bees clustering
on the rags.

THE POULTRY YARD.

WINTER greens for poultry, cheap and
wholesome - cabbages. Grow them
yourself.
WHEN chicks are high in price old
fowls are also in demand. There is
probably no better time to sell surplus
than now.
WE do not advise heating water (by
the SUM for fowls in summer. 1t will
be warm enough if pumped from the
well every day and the water vessel set
in the shade.
THE chick that is strong, growthy,
hardy and active from the shell onward,
is the one to keep for breeding. Keep
an eye on the broods and mark the best
youngsters early.
COLD weather seals up foul odors,
warm weather sets them free. Hence
the greater Importance of absorbing
them now by a free use of earth in the
fowl houses and in the coops of the
chicks.
JUNE-HATCHED chicks come upon the
scene just in season to harvest the in,

Happy coincidence-for the chicks

have liking for June-hatched pullets

sized breeds.-Farm Journal.

BEAUTY AND BRAVERY.
An Incident That Seems to Indicate q
~ Close Relationsbip.

Close Relationship.
What sort of men are likely to be
found the bravest? A writer raises this
question, and seems to come to tho
quite unexpected conclusion that phys
ical beauty is perhaps the surest sign
of physical courage. He quotes a
French philosopher as saying that
where bravery amounts to madness
there is always something womanish
about the face and bearing" and re-
lates an incident of the civil war which
seems to point to similar conclusion
II attended a funeral at Harper's
Ferry near the close of the war. Gen.
Sheridan had ordered that all who had
captured battle flags or performed anv
remarkable feat of daring should repair
to the parade ground to receive such
decoration as they deserved, which was
done to the accompaniment of martial
music and many cheers.
II looked with great pride upon the
motley collection of the bravest of
braves, and with no little interest; for
hoped to discern among the elect some
sign which would segregate these COM
panions-in-arms from their congencrs
of lesser renown. Alas! they were of
every hue and shape, and almost of
every nationality, the American types
predominating-for we were four to one
against all other nationalities.
They were for the most part quiet
looking body Of young men, displaying
as much GOODNESS in this the supreme
! hour of triumph as had been shown on
the occasions which had led to it.
"One type of the soldier was con-
spicuous by its absence-I mean the
stalking, self-conscious, more-than-
erect sort of person, having the prac-
ticed frown and quick flash of the dark
eye, the ideal soldier in time of peace;
but there were present some pictur-
esque-looliing fellows of the Buffalo
Bill kind, presumably from the plains.
''All were clad in Uncle Sans uni
form of blue and Virginias uniform OF
swarthy tan. All looked hardy and
weather-worn, and as they passed in
review before Gen. Max Weber's head,
quarters, the one distinguishing char
acteristic of these youths was expressed
by a Virginia lady who stood near me
and who. as the reigning belle of Har
per's Ferry, doubtless considered thai
she spoke with authority:

be easily seeded and surplus water will
flow away quickly without tearing the
soil. During summer mowers, reapers
and loads of hay can easily cross the
ditch without inconvenience. An open
ditch that has abrupt sides is not only
expensive to dig but expensive to keep
clear, as frost throws down the
walls. Wide bitches carry away water
faster than deep gullies, and always
without cutting away the soil. This is
just as true on rapid descent as on

weight of running water is what does
the damage. Spread it out and the

The United States Weather Charts of the
Ocean.

The United States Weather Charts of the
Ocean.
On every chart is printed information
regarding the storm signals of the
United States coast, and directions to
be followed in the event of being
caught in hurricanes.
So much information is generally at
hand which is sure to be useful to the
mariners, that very often a supplement
is published to accompany the chart
proper.
Every month $500 of these charts are
printed and sent out to the branch
offices and to individuals. These branch
offices are at Boston. New York, Phila-
delphia, Baltimore, Norfolk, Savannah.
New Orleans, San Francisco and Port
land, Ore. Each is supplied with an
outfit of charts, books of sailing direc-
tions, ETC., and to them the masters of
vessels are invited to bring instruments
for correction: here they may seek in
formation which is gladly furnished
them without charge, and here they
obtain free copies of the pilot charts.
To the Wednesday and Saturday
steamers leaving New York and Bos-
ton especial attention is given. The
pilot charts are sent to them by special
delivery, when necessary, and their
messengers wait at the branch offices
until the last possible moment so that
they may obtain the latest news before
they sail.

WAR "REMINISCENCES.
THE TREMoR OF BATTLE.

Suspense Often Makes a Brave Man Act
Like n Coward.
In the last year of the war, when inn
mense bounties were offered and the
draft forced men into the army, the
coward was caught in the net with the
brave Ran, but for the first two years
cowardice in the face of the enemy was
a thing unknown. The coward knew
himself and refused to enlist. He did
not appear until forced to by avarice or
the provost marshal. Then he was an
object of pity as well as of contempt.
The tremor of battle is a queer,
strange thing. Had it not been so gen
eral it would have been mistaken for
cowardice. 1t came not only with the
first battle, but with the second, third,
fourth-with each and every one down
to the last. The veteran was afflicted
as strongly as the raw recruit-the Off
Ger as well as the private. And yet
