II Paws TO Be Thorough.

1t pays TO be thorough, as the fol-
lowing test shows. While preparing
a large area of new ground" during
the spring of 1892, so many protests
were made against the waste OF time
and labor, running the land" etc, that
to satisfy the skeptical two acres were
left unbroken except just enough ia
which to plant each row of corn, TO be
broken at the first cultivation of the
corn. The result was three times as
much time and hard labor was required
TO cultivate the two acres as any other
two in the field, and the corn matured
ten days later than that on land we'll
prepared before planting. Farm and

Most of the diseases to which fowls are
subject are the results of errors in diet
or management, and should have been
prevented or may be removed by a
change, and the adoption of a suitable
regimen. When an individual is at
tackled, it should be forthwith removed,
to prevent the contamination of the
rest of the flock. Nature, who proves
guardian to fowls in health, will
nurse them in their weakness, and act
as most efficient physician to the
sick; and the aim of all medical treat
ment should be TO follow the indica
tions which nature holds out, and as
sist in the effort which she constan tly
makes for the restoration to health

A MIGHTY LATENT FORCE,

General Booths religious methods
may smack a trife of the band wagon
variety. but this is rather commentary
on the weakness of mankind than re-.
fiection on the general. He has proved
that Barnum's adage about the peoples
fondness for being humbugged ia as true
in the church as it is in the circus. Not
many years ago it was the correct thing
to scoff at the Salvation Army and its
methods. Since then the queen OF
England has taken off her hat, meta.
phorically speaking, to the commander
of this queer religious band, and
Chsuncey Depsw has Welcomed him to
America. More than that. the army
has grown spaos, till now it numbers
more than million trained soldiers.
Christianity has cause for congratula-
ton that the nineteenth century has
produced 80 unique personality and
such a remarkable religious leader as
General Booth. The press and public
are lauding the general and his army at
this moment-snd not without reason,
for the world has never produced such .
man and such band bsfore.
But there 10 another side to the q usa.

Mr.. JOSEPH H. BEAN, of Washington,
D. c.. is now asking the question !:
What is the use OF being Mason q nd
Grand Army man if one may not call
upon q comrade to aid him in the hour
OF need? Mr.. Beams need was great
He had just killed his stepdaughter and
was stamping upon her dead body and
holding some infuriated and interfering
citizens at bay when fellow Mason,
Congressman Meiklejohn, came in sight.
Mr.. Bean called upon the congressman
for assistance, giving the grip and pass
word OF the order at the same time.
Strange to say. Congressman Msiklejohp
deemed the bond of humanity stronger
than that OF q secret order. He gave
assistance to the citizens, none of whom,
30 far as the records show, was Mason.
1t is circumstances like these that are
calculated to shake the belief of men
like Mr.. Bean in the Rscredness of the
fraternal bond To Mr.. Beams way OF
thinking Congressman Meiklejohn's
conduct was as reprehensible, dou btless,
and as inconsistent as was that of Mrs.
Bean, who refused to support the mur-
derer of her daughter in idleness.

man has come to California, who has &C.
complished marvels for humanity; who has
planted the seeds of charity in many lonely
place; whose efforts have always been to lift
up the lowly and downtrodden, to mako life
more bearable for the poor OF earth, and to
cast rays of sunshine into dark and dirty
hooks. Like the martial drumbeat of England,
his influence has circled the globe. His faith
full fol overs have taken up the cross in the
gold fields of Africa and the frozen and gilt
tering leagues OF Iceland. In the noicome
dens OF London the wearers OF his insignia
have planted the flowers of a tender Christian
ity that is akin to that which He of Nazareth
pleached by the shore of Gailee. No suffer-
ing has been so agonizing that they have not
attempted to assuage; no grief so poignant
that they have not endeavored to soothe and
to heal; no crime so crimson that they have
not sought to have washed white in the heart
felt repentance of the criminal; no sinkholes
OF iniquity so vile that they have not sought
to purify and redeem. They have gone down
into the depths OF sin and of dirt, from which
churches have held aloof and have stretched
forth their hands into the lowest cutters of
filth and of guilt, 10 ok up wrecks OF humaa-
ity at which all but they have hsld their noses
as they passed DeIicately niirtured women
have dedicated their lives toa work of self
sacrifice, of self-abnegation, ef self-con-
quest, OF selI-ODllteFdl1On, anu nave per-
formed deeds of humanity and of charity that
halo them with a light from beyond the
skies.
Who are they? Who but the followers of the
Salvation army-men and women who do,
while ministers talk; who act, while churches
discuss and abuse; who save and redeem, and
cleanse, and pu ify, while high priced theo-
logians discipline one of their number for
shaking his head doubtfully at fearful tales of
an orthodox hell, or for dropping an eyelid to
windward when reading that fable OF Jon ah
and the whale.
The leader that noble band whose good
works stretch around the globe is now in Ca l.
ifornia. He is Rev. William Booth, a Metho-
dist minister, who is better known to fame as
General Booth. commander OF the Salvation
army. In the presence of this man, who has
accomplished SO much for humanity, pope and
potentate, priest minister and rabbi, may well
uncover to do honor.

A VANCOUVER laborer killed his wife
and two children. Then, as though to
evidence his own mental soundness in
the matter, attempted to infict the
death penalty upon himself. But the
red hand OF the fend was uncertain by
this time. the bullets did their work
poorly, and he will have to give en-
ployment to criminal lawyer and pos
sibly to an insanity commission. With
. proper appreciation of things the dis.
patches call it the ''most horrible trage-
dy ever perpetrated in this city," but
neglect to point out the very obvious
morsl-which ia: That if it were as con-
venient to kill oneself as to kill Others,
then courts would be less overburdened,
and many a blood maddened murderer
