a New Beverage Which Is Admirably Re-
freshing and Restorative in Its Effects.
Coffee and tea have been so long
known to the world, and have given so
much delight and refreshment to mil
singular statement to make, at this
late day, that man has not yet availed
himself of some of the most valuable
properties of these plants. Such never
theless appears to be the case, especially
with respect to the cotfee-plant.
The stimulating power of tea and
coffee is due to what is known as
large percentage of tannin, which is
not desirable component in a bever-
age; and coffee, while less rich in
theme than tea, posse other proper
ties which give it flavor as drink.
Tea, as everybody knows, is made
from leaves, while coffee is made from
berries or beans. just here is where
something appears to have been over
looked. 1t has recently been discov-
cred that the leaves of the coffee plant
are not only available for making a
beverage, but that they possess prop
critics which make them in some re-
spects more valuable than the coffee
beans.
In appearance and fragrance the
dried coffee leaves very much resem BILE
those of the tea-plant. An infusion of
them being made, just as in the case
of ordinary tea, an aromatic beverage
is produced which is bitter to the taste,
but not disagreeably so, and which
contains almost as much theme as real
tea, while there is a notable falling off
in the proportion of tannin.
1t has been suggested that this "cof-
fee-tea," although not quite as agreea-
bic to the uneducated taste as either of
the older beverages, may become an
important article of diet, since it is
admirably refreshing and restorative
in it's effects, and at the same time
would probably not prove disagreeable
to people who are unable to drink or
binary tea and coffee.
The coffee leaves thus far expert
mented with have been grown on the
elevated plains of Dim bula in Ceylon.
There appears to be no reason why
they should not be widely cultivated if
the new beverage wins its way to
popular favor. Youth Companion.

we should expect the South seas to

times as much as was originally given
for it. The average trader is man of
absolutely no bowels. he has no eye
for natures marvels. The poetry of
the southern cline never yet slid into
his soul. His class is made up largely
of riff-raf of all Australia, and OF some
honest men whom the itch for wander

who have drifted thither from Sydney

heart that comes from hope deferred
and from the final stoppage of the

makes enough in a few years to retire

get killed before attaining that con-

Trace the Parents Breeding.

In selecting the sire you will breed to
next season, bear in mind that MANY
prominent breeders of long experience
claim that the grandparents show more
direct influence on the foal than the
parents. You want to breed to a good
sized, well-proportioned horse that is a
good type of a roadster. Often the
dam of such one was a little, under
sized mare that could speed fast for q
short distance. Bred to large horse,
she produced foal that developed siz
and quality, but is likely to throw
back to her dam. AS you want horse
that will bring a good price as road
ster, if not speedy, you cannot afford to
take the risk of an understood. unsal-
able colt-H. G. Hall, in Farm and
Home.

either side can be hinged to the frame
work if desired, to be folded down out
of the way when such side pieces are
not desired. Round iron is used for

rims, and may often be found in

The most important secret in success
full fruit-growing is this: The trees
should be fed with as much hberality
and care as the best of all the crops
grown in the fields. The demands o.
the tree are not only for the fruit, but
for itself, the increased growth of il
taking from the land each year quite as
much of the fertility of the soil as a
crop of wheat or corn. OF course, it
will be admitted that only BEAUTIFULLY
growing tree will bear full crop, and
doubtless the reason why trees bear
only alternate years is that the tree
itself takes the first contribution from
the soil, and, this being imperative,
nothing is left for the fruit in the Sec
ond year, the crop of the preceding
year, with the increase of the tree, hav.
ing exhausted the land. And as the
mineral elements are mostly needed,
nothing else will be SO useful as lime.

FARM AND GARDEN.

How Missouri Farmer Proposes to So

Hon John Walker, of Howard coun-

the merit of originality and probable
feasibility also. Mr.. Walker says:
81 will give 81 per acre on every
acre of land l own toward the building
of a gravel road from Rocheport to
Jackman's mill. My farm consists of
$50 acres-hence I will take stock in
said road to the amount of $3.50. I
will also give the same amount for a
gravel road from ROcheport to Ashland
church or from the church to Fayette.
eff we could get the farmers once in-
terested in such an enterprise, it would
be but few years until we could have
the best roads in the west. The build
ing of these roads can be accomplished
with less cost in the long run than the
present system of road working is now

Low Col. Albert A. Pope Would Raise
Funds for Good Roads.
During the past year thousands of ar.
ticles on the subject of the betterment
of the highways have appeared in the
newspapers of the country. The great
value and Importance of good roads no
intelligent person questions, but how
to raise money to obtain them is a diff
cult problem about which opinions
widely differ.
beg leave to suggest in your col
umns plan which l believe to be the
least burdensome and the most effec-
tual and equitable for providing good
roads. Let each state establish
graduated succession tax on legacies
and inheritances. Such tax might be
arranged as follows: On all estates
valued at SO, 600 up to $1,000, 900, per
cent; on estates over 81 900, 900 and up
to IS, 600, 900, per cent. on the first
100000, 2 per cent on the remainder;
on estates of over IS, 600, 900 up to S1O,-
000,0 900, l per cent on the first 81, 0O0.-
600, per cent. on over that sum up to
100000 and per cent. on S., 600, 900
to $40, 900, 900. This general principle of
l per cent. inclease every additional
S., 900, 900 to be the fixed rate of inheri-
lance and legacy tax.
For example on an estate valued
at $50, 600, 900 the tax would be as fol"
lows.
