To-MORROWS AND TO-MORROWs

To-morrows and to-morrows stretch a gray
IJnbroken line of shore; but as the sea
Will fret and gnaw the land and steaithlly
Deyour it grain by grain, so day by day
Times restless waters lap the sands away
Until the shrinking isle of life, where we
Had pitched our tent, wholly engulfed snail De-
And swept far out into eternity,
Some nom, some noon, some might've may
not say
1pst how or when. or where! And then-What
then?
n crv unanswered still by mortal ken!
This only may we know-how far and wide
That precious dust be carried by the TIDE
No more is lost, but every grain of sand
Close-gathered in our Fathers loving manu.
And made to build again-somehoW, some
where
Another Isle of Life, divlnely fair!

AGRICULTURE.

1t seldom pays to hold grain for rise
in the market. Often the rise does not
come, while thousand bushels of corn,
when thoroughly dried, lose lis bushels
in weight by evaporation. That which
brings so cents now must bring 81 next
year. Add to this interest and insurance
and it is hard to figure out a profit in
any case.
1t is not every hand that can pillow; it
requires skill and intelligence. The fur
row should be of even width and depth
and turned smoothly and handsomely;
the pillow should be right, the team right
and the one should be rightly hitched
to the other. Flowing is easy--to some.
The pillow may do good work, or very
poor work.
Wherever good, strong soil is found,
and a reasonably warm season. sugar
beets can be grown to advantage. Many
of the Western States are now extern
sively engaged in the production of sugar
through this root crop, and there is no
reason to think that farmers of the
Middle and Eastern States cannot do
likewise.
New England farms are beginning to
pay again, because their methods have
been revolutionized. Grain growing and
stock raising are left to the monster
farms of the West, while the smaller
patches of soil which have been at rest
among the Eastern hills now raise pro-
fitably fruits, garden vegetables, poultry
eggs and dairy products for the Yankees
themselves. This is wisdom.
No doubt but that some of our farm
ventures pay. That there is no great
profit upon the whole is because some
of the products do not pay. Just in the
same way one-half the cattle in the
country eats up the profits from the
other half. A part of our science lies in
separating the one from the other.
If field has not paid you, change the
soil or the crop. Test the milk and dis
pose of the proftless COWS. Sell the
scrub horses and stop feeding them.
Get rid of the surplus cocks and the
old hens. Weed out everything unpro-
fitable. 1t is true today that the seven
lean kline devoured the seven fat kline.
A farmer should have working capital
in proportion to the acres he tills. Do
not be too crazy for land. Large farms
are rarely cultivated as thoroughly as
smaller ones, because the farmer has not
sufficient capital nor strength to do so.
Probably three years old is long
enough to risk any bee queen through
the winter; after that age they are liable
to be lost. She may live longer, but SO
many fail at about that age that it isnot
best to keep them any longer.
Much land in the South is given to
the growth Of cereals not fitted for them
and it should be given over to pasturage
or the growing of fruits. Constant
cropping should be stopped, and oppor-
tunity be given them for recruiting.
Also, weeds grow ranker in that region
because of the greater rainfall.

Good food fed to good stock will in
crease many fold, but in no circumstance
can food fed to poor stock bring any
profit. Consider it wholly wasted, but
thus some men manage all their lives.
1t may be possible to keep sheep very
cheaply through the winter, but it is not
policy to do 80. A flock wintered through
the cold weather on straw will show a
pretty poor fleece.
The world must be fed, and it pays to
stand by Our herds and focks all the
time, despite the prevailing depression.
Breeders who have kept up their cour-
age will yet find their reward.
Very often the sheep which makes the
best mutton carcass is apt to have the
best fleece; therefore. you are likely to
spoil the wool crop if you Gull out the
best muttons for the butcher.
Despite the denial, the demand for
large draft horses is greater than the
supply. From the market reports we
learn that horses of 900 or 1900 pounds
are bringing 5000 or upward. Why are
not our farmers raising more of them?
The animal which is permitted at any
stage of his life to stand still or retro
grade in condition through exposure,
hardship or neglect, will never regain its
best condition. Every days care counts.
The Percheron horse has good dis
position, and is easily kept sound and
healthy, free from blemishes, and is al
ways ready either to do your work or to
sell. The Percheron has few equals as
a draft horse in this country.
Economy and parsimony are two diff
ferent words. Economy in feeding is
not reducing the amount, for it is the
most expensive way of doing. Dispose
of the higher priced foods and buy
cheaper ones; feed bran instead of corn;
make full use of the corn fodder and the
straw pile.
There is real economy in feeding
etraw and corn fodder. There is no
question but that stock can be wintered
as we'll upon these as upon high priced
hay. When these are fed with bran,
having higher albuminoid ratio, they
enable an animal to digest and assimi-
late better than when corn is fed with
them.
A good, warm stable will save one
third of the food. See that no currents
of wind blow through the creyices.
Bank around the stable even with straw
or manure, and line with refuse lumber,
no matter if it does look bad. Give no
ice water to the stock to drink, for this
will require extra food to warm them
up.
Why keep steer to sell at four years
old for SO or $40. when. by starting with
good blood and feeding enough to keep
him in thriving condition. finishing on
good grass or feed, he can be sold when
half that old for $50 or $40?

We are sailing away on the pillows of life,
In the frailest of vessels, my dear,
And in some of our bosoms great courage Is
rife
We are ready to do and to dare in the strife.
While others are quaking with fear.
On. on toward the west where our days sun
shall set,
We are pungng in weariless ZEAL
And we often look back with sigh of regret
To the shores of the past and the friends we
have met.
With a sadness but mortals can feel.
Climbing upward are some, to the mastheads Of
fame;
Less favored ones struggle below,
IT avails not how high. or how low we may aim,
If we patiently wait, we shall all win name
Tn the land where we're destined to go.
All. some have been wrecked on lnlqulty 5

In the sweet budding springtime OF YOUTH
In the whirlwnd of sin they have taken thelr
stand,
And have drifted away from the clasp Oh our

Whose mind gleaneth more than our own

more than she could bear and keep
silence.
A liturgical service was recent in
novation. But Grantley, situated
among the most lovely of New Eng
land hills, was looking up. When a
town looks up, young blood is cur
rent, and young blood demands new
and unimpeded channels. The West
Church had been the church of the
town for many years, but latterly
new organization and new edihce, with
an elaborate service, was attracting
the tentative notice of the more youth
full portion of the old congregation.
Young men and maidens often stole
away from the family group and
Joined the worshipers across the Com
mon, explaining, when called to ac-
count by their elders, that they liked
the opening service in which they had
a voice, imparting thrill and life
they never found in the home church.
They wanted something to "do them
selves" the boldest of them asserted,
and not have everything left to the
minister and the choir, as if the
church and the service did not belong
to all, old and young, high and low.
Plainly, something must be done.
Grantley, in its process of looking up,
was becoming popular summer re-
sort for urban jewellers. A big hotel
and numerous fine cottages had APP
peared on the hillsides, which yielded
charming views of mountain, valley,
wood, and winding stream; and all
through the summer gay people
promenaded the piazzas, climbed
the hills, fished in brooks, and filled
the surprised church pews on the
Sundays. Besides, the railway au-
thorities had built branch line from
the great central route to the quiet
town, and an ornate station building,
with it's plot of geraniums and pan
sizes, invited the combined spirit of
business and beauty. And, further
more-Oh, the pity of itl-a stock
company, accepting the invitation,
had turned the lovely stream to the
base uses of driving machinery. Thus
shop and mill arose, where red-cheeked
boys and girls from farms near and
far sought the means for personal
adornment and a better education,
perhaps atoning, in their higher pur-
pose, for the dethroned spirit of
beauty. So the breezy life of pleas

to do some shopping. and as the other
girl was with them at home she went
along. They had not gone more than
half mile from their home when they
met with the accident.
They were driving two horses to
spring wagon. At this place there is
deep cut, and parties cannot see the
train approaching. 1t was the Mis-
souri,. Kansas & Texas train and was
running at the rate of 40 miles an hOur.
The engine struck the wagon between
the front and hind wheels and broke
it all to pieces. The horses were not
hurt at all The bodies of the girls
were very much mutilated and almost
beyond recognition. The train was
stopped and the lifeless bodies were
picked upand brought back to Lenexa.

DEES TALKS.

The American Railway Union President
Tells of the Grievances That Led to the
Great Strike.
CHICAGO, July 7.-President Debs, of
the A. r. u, issued an address last
night to the public, the purport of
which, he said. was to acquaint the
people with the facts relating to the
present trouble. He declared that the
Pullman employees who struck on May
did so entirely on their own ac-
cord. Their action was spontane-
Gus and unanimous, revolt against
the series of wrongs of long stand
ing. The labor leaders not only
had no part in it. but those connected
with the A. K. U. advised against it.
The employees at Pullman had virtually
become the slaves of the corporation.
At the time of the strike they were in
arrears for rent alone to the extent of
$4,000. Within a short time they
would have become hopelessly involved
in debt and would have belonged soul
and body to the company. This had
resulted because while wages had been
reduced the cost of living had remained
the same.
The employees of the company from
the beginning had been willing to arbi-
trate their differences. The claim of
the company that there was nothing to
arbitrate was absurd. The committee
waited on the officials of the company,
but was always rebutfed. The com
pany was and is still as unyielding as
adamant.
Finally on June II the delegates OF
the A. r. U. met in convention in Chi
cagO. The Pullman trouble had been
discussed at their local meetings. Two
commissions were sent to the officials,
but no satisfaction could be obtained.
As n last resource the delegates deter
mined. by unanimous vote, to decline
to haul the Pullman cars unless the
company would do justice within five
days. This action was taken six weeks
after the strike at Pullman occurred.

WASHINGTON. July 10.-The net cash
balance in the treasury at the close OF
business yesterday was Sl21. 5Os.s22. of
which S64, 241, 4O6 was gold reserve.
This is an ancrease in the cash bal

and an increase in the gold reserve
since June 25 of nearly so.5OO,OOO.
The treasury officials are greatly en-

the gold export movement and the
great increase in internal revenue re-
ceipts. and are very confident these
conditions. added to the probable early
passage of the new tariff bill, will re.
suit in large increase of the cash bal.
