in a boat with his master the other day,
the dog noticed that the plug was out OF
the bottom of the boat and the water
was coming in. After calling attention
TO the trouble he placed his paw over
the hole and kept the water out until
his master found the plug and replaced

Intensive Farming in England

Mr.. L. S. Peer OF New York State,
author of an excellent work or soiling
cattle, has recently been visiting in the
Island of Jersey and gives readers of
the Country Gentlemen" his impress
sions of intensive farming as he saw
II carried on there by some of the best
farmers in the world. AS in other
parts of England much of the land is
hired from landlords and at rates that
always astonish Americans, being from
$40 as the lowest to $50 on the highest
per acre. The average rate is over $50.
The farms are generally small, rang
ing from five to twenty acres and aver
aging but seven acres through the
Island. Jersey Is about 100 miles
south of England, on which country its
farmers depend for market 1t is
needless to say that people who pay
such rents are thrifty and industrious.
All work and nothing is allowed to go
10 waste. Large quantities of sea-
weed are gathered at every low tide
and hauled ashore for enriching the
land. Cattle are kept at the rate of
two or more mature animals for each
acre in grass and all manure is scrupu-
lousy saved. Not mouthful of cat
tie food is wasted. Early potatoes are
A leading crop but almost every farmer
has Il considerable area under glass de-
voted to grapes, tomatoes and other
fruits and vegetables. The soil is well
stirred to the depth of from II to Is
inches Seed potatoes are prepared, as
often recommended in these columns,
by sprouting in warm light rooms n
few weeks before planting, then care
fully setting the tubers in the rows
without breaking or bruising the
sprouts All the work after blowing
is done by hand, the rows being but Is
inches apart and hand plows or cult
vators being drawn or pushed along
the rows. Mr.. Peer gives the cost of
the crop as $50 per acre, including
rent, labor, seed, fertilizer and
marketing, enough To scare almostany
but Jersey Island farmer. But the
sales are expected to reach $500 per
acre or more. One crop last year was
reported at S460 per acre. All the
land is made to produce two or more
crops of something every years. Mr.
Peer is a good farmer but he will
doubtless be better one after his ex-
pcrience with those thrifty Islanders.
We in this country have yet much to
learn regarding the best use of the
land we pretend 10 cultivate.

A remarkably fine specimen OF me-

ham county. South Carolina. to the
state museum at Columbus. It's
greatest length is not above twelve
inches, and its thickness through the
thickest part is about two inches. In
general shape it is Hat, though some

''House Furnishing Review: Moth
ing is positively known concerning
the discovery of the art of glass max
ing. Pliny, the historian, is authority
for the legend that some PhHnicians
who landed on the banks of small
river in Palestine, finding no stones
on which to rest their pots, they
placed under them some masses of
nitrum probably soda), which being
fused by the heat with the sand Of the
river, produced liquid and transpar-
emit stream" To this incident is usu-
ally ascribed the discovery of making
glass. The art, however. is believed
to date back to far earlier times This
fact is proven by paintings on Egyp-
tian tombs which date back as far as
1900 years before Christ, in which are
shown Theban glass blowers with
blow pipes, greatly resembling those
used at the present time Glass beads
and small glass jars bearing inscrip.
tions, showing them to be made about
1850 year Il. c., have also been found
in Egypt; consequently to the inhab
itants of that mystic land doubtless
belongs the credit of originating this
art They IN turn impaired IL to the
Phnniclans. who IN time Transmitted
it to the Greeks. During the days OF
Cicero it was introduced into Rome
and attained very high degree of
perfection. The most magnificent
specimens of glass ever Inanufac
tured were produced in Rome, as, for
instance, the famous Portland vase in
the British Museum. During the mid
die ages the Nenetians became the
most noted makers of glass, and next
to them ranked the Bohemians. Not
w thstanding the fact that glass max
ing in all its branches was known at
so early date its use in windows
seems to have been unknown until
about 300 A. d. Cut glass can, with.
out a doubt, be considered q thing OF
comparatively modern date. 1t is said
to have been invented by Caspur Leh-
mann, a cutter OF iron and steel who
resided in Prague, Bohemia. The
Emperor Rudolphus III. granted him a
patent on his discovery in 1909. At
Nuremberg. however, at about the be.
ginning of tn eighteenth century, cut
glass first began to show fair claims
to be regarded rs an art

A bulletin of Cornell Experiment
Station says that in general way the
following rules may be OF some all in
applying plant food under ordinary
conditions: Reclaimed lowland rich
in vegetable matter is likely to be rich
in nitrogen but deficient in phosphoric
acid. Well drained high land, particu-
larly on exposed locations, is more
likely to be deficient in nitrogen than
phosphoric acid. Where crops have
made "A small growth of leaf or stalk,
under otherwise favorable conditions,
nitrogen is likely to be deficient in the
soil A large yield of plump, bright
grain from a small or moderate growth
of straw or stalks would indicate an
abundance of phosphoric acid and pot
ash and deficient amount of nitrogen.
An abnormal growth of leaf or stalk
with small yield of light
grain would indicate an abundance
of nitrogen and an insu flicient
amount of phosphor ac idand potash.
AS rule. plants hay ny the greatest
leaf development require the most pot
ash. Farm manures that have been
well cared for contain about twice as
much nitrogen as phosphoric acid, and
consequently land that has received
recent liberal applications of barn ma
nures is not likely to be deficient in
nitrogen. High grade fertilizers gen
orally give more plant food for their
cost than those Of low grade. Pure
sodium nitrate Chile saltpetrc) in 100
pounds contains los pounds of nitro
gen. Pure ammonium sulphate in lG0
pounds contains 2l.2 pounds of nitro
gen. Pure chloride or murate of pot
ash in 100 pounds contains g. pounds
of actual potash. Pure sulphate of
potash in 100 pounds contains 81
pounds of actual potash. Kainit
should contain in 100 pounds about
1915 pounds of potash. The best re-
suits from sodium nitrate are secured
by frequent applications of small
amounts on the growing crop as tor.
dressing.

Unpleasant Passports.

The finest examples of unpleasant
passports on record are, according
to James Payn's way of thinking,
those given by the king OF Portugal
when master of the Indian seas.
Even Moorish ships dared not sail
without his permission in writing.
and, as Moors could never acquire
the art OF reading. these "permits"
for which. of course, handsome pay

as follows: The owner OF this ship

Mr.. Robert Crawford, describing
his life as a civil engineer in the
Iwilds OF Canada. devotes one chapter
to his experience in going astray in

he was plodding through a part of

streams had to be crossed. and more
than once all hands were totally
Immersed. Worse than all, darkness
was rapidly falling. At last, wet,
tired and hungry, they were obliged
to confess that they we're lost, and,
more than that, in q cedar swamp
with the water nearly up to their
knees
They had no firearms. their
matches were wet and worthless, and
as they sat upon the trunk of q fallen
tree and talked the situation over
they agreed that they had only one
chance OF rescue. II they could
make themselves heard at some set

They agreed to take turns in using
their lungs to the utmost, with an
occasional blending of all three
voices to vary the effect For some
time they screamed in vain. Then
at last they heard. or thought they
heard, an answer. Yes, their cries were
certainly answered. but not in way

was the bowling of wolves, sound
to make the blood curdlc in their
veins.
They ceased their shouts. 1t would
be better to freeze than to be eaten
By wolves. But just then the sound
reached thcm again. 1t seemed to
be changed. Faint and far off as il
was, ii sounded like the barking of q
dog. Hope revived, and the three

Then they stopped and combined
their strength in one loud call. Pack

there was no doubt about it, anG
