THE NAPOLEON REVIVAL.
Why the Emperor Is tho Most P0pula
I7pop t.


Character Ia History.
Within the past year there has been
a revival of interest in the career of
Napoleon Bonaparte that is almost
phenomenal In literature he has fig
ured in the pages of memoirs and rem
iniscences by those who came into
more and less intimate contact with
him. In art not only has he been a po-
tent inspiration to modern painters
and sculptors, but he has made price
less all pictorial records of his time. In
the drama he poses as the most pictur-
esque figure that has been brought
upon the stage within the century.
Personal relics of the man are held as
sacred and beyond all price. AS Paul
Bourget aptly says, Napoleon has
hypnotized the French people again"
In France the sting of defeat after
the Franco-Prussian war turned the
thoughts of all to their period of great
est glory, and so it needed but time to
see Napoleon enshrined as an idol. An
equally logical explanation is found
for the most notable feature of the Ma
poleon revival in this country.
The Centurys life of the emperor was

anyone could have foreseen the pres
ent attitude of the public mind. It
was undertaken solely with the idea
that Napoleon was one of the greatest,
most forceful and picturesque charac-
tiers in the entire range of history, and
that hitherto he had been inadequate
ly represented. For that reason Prof.
William NJ. Sloane, the greatest Amer
lean student of French history, was
commissioned to write the life, and
his years of study among unpublished
archives have brought out his COM
pleted labor at the most opportune mo-
ment And Prof. Sloane shows us
new Napoleon, devourer of books, an
unsuccessful literary asplrant, an inef-
fectual Corsican political agitator, but
the new Napoleon certainly makes the
old Napoleon more easily compre-
hended.

Artificial Lakes on Farms.

When one gives the subject thought,
it appears strange that SO few readers
have artificial ponds when so many
have suitable places to erect the ponds
at small expense. Recently during a
visit to the country we saw where a
never-failing spring had been utilized
in this way, and the miniature lake
was both useful and ornamental The
surplus water ran through trough,
erected for the stock, and with a
great deal less attention than is re-
quired by windmill the trough was
kept perfectly clean, always full and
the water fresh. Although the grass
had been pretty short during the sum-
mer, the horses looked as if they had
been living on iuxuriant clover. The
pond is we'll stocked with game fish,
and each Of the farmers rising sons
would about as leave dispense with
the barn as to do away with the pond.

list the aid of the general government
in this direction, but it failed to re-
ceive the support of either congress or
the department of agriculture. There
is fine field Cor individ Lal or
corporate enterprise. One difficulty
in the way has already been
removed by the recent opening of
railway between Constantinople and
the province of Angora. This
cuts off the former toilsome journey
from the Ottoman capital to the ma
tive ha bitat of the goats and the cost
ly transportation of the animals to the
port of shipment by mountainous
bride patas. There are vast regions
west of the Mississippi in which physic-
al and climatic conditions are not
greatly unlike those of Armenia,
where the Angora goats have fourished
from inmemorial time. These tracts
are wholly unsuitable for agriculture,
but may be utilized for breeding and
rearing these goats. If sufficient cap
ital could be enlisted to secure the i'm
portation of thoroughbred stock, a
new impulse would be given to the in
dustry. The accompanying illustra-

A Word About Green NIanuring.

When you pillow under heavy green
crop, you place under the soil large
amount of water, and also what is
practically a sponge for holding moist
ure. 1t ought to be evident that If the
air is given free access to this mass of
green stuff. it will dry up almost like
hay. If it is to conserve moisture, the
air must be kept out of it. For this
reason, it is well to cover the green
crop thoroughly with soil, and then
pack it down hard with a roller.
Worked in this way, such crop will
prove a valuable help in carrying the
succeeding crop through drought

LIVESTOCK NOTES.

IL breeding sheep that will produce
the best mutton we are breeding sheep
that will produce the best and most
wool.
In Nebraska farmer, as he states,
accidentally learned that millet seed
was first rate for pigs. He fed it with
corn.
If we do not learn from the present
depression that breeding scrub horses
is a losing business, we never will
learn.
THE best animal has not yet been
bred. Progress is still possible. Act
upon the fact and breed to higher
standard all the time.
THE British government has ordered
from this country large consignment
of fodder bricks which are made Of
crushed oats, corn and chopped hay.
IT costs more to feed pounds on to
scrub animal than it does on to a grade
or thoroughbred. The breeder OF
scrub stock loses at both ends of the
business-at the grain bin and at the
market.

SETTING THE HEN.
Much Annoyance Can Re Prevented by q
Little Training.

Much Annoyance Can Re Prevented by y
Little Training.
An exchange thinks that this is
subject that seems to admit of wide
range of opinion. Notwithstanding it Is
something almost any child of ten or.
twelve years, brought up in the rural
districts. could do successfully. There.
are many grown people, however, who
look to their neighbors for intorma!:
ton on this subject, and the neighbors:
think it such trivial affair that they
do not give the subject sufficient
thought to enable them to enlighten
those who seek the information. In
other words, they only understand it
practically and not theoretically.
Josh Billings made one point clear
when he wrote: "The best time to set
a hen is when the hen is ready" but
difficulty presents itself just at that
period. When the hen is ready the
owner is not, owing to the fact that
the hen has chosen an unsuitable place
for Matching. and here is where the
trouble is The owner wants to move
the hen to a more convenient place,
and he finds she is very much 'set in
her ways" and will not be moved, and
as a natural consequence in attempt
ing to compel biddy to hatch where
she does not want to, a sitting of eggs
are spoiled and much valuable time
lost A very little training of the hen
would avoid all the annoyance. When
your hens begin to lay, suitable places
should be arranged about the premises
for nests, in secluded places on the
ground, and when the hen has once
appropriated one of these places to her
own use all that is necessary is to let
her alone. If there is danger of the
eggs freezing. put a china egg in the
nest, and when she begins to sit re-
move it and give her good eggs. In
this way, success is probable if not
certain.

of all cases of consumption can, if taken in
the earlier stages of the disease, be cured
This may seem like bold assertion to

Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to us as cured by Golden MED .

dread and fatal disease? You need not take
our word for it. They have, i'll nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the pest
