NAVY BEANS.

Prairie Farmer suggests, if you are
looking about for new money crop
with which to experiment. that YOU
try navy beans. Here is the advice
given:
Plow deep, manure heavily and pull
Ierize thoroughly before putting in
The seed. \ mistake is very often
made with this crop through putting it
in too soon. Some practice planting
at the same time as corn, but this is
too early, as it then ripens in very hot
weather and is apt to suffer severely
from the weevil. They should not he
planted until the middle or latter paTt
of June, and this time has the addi-
tonal advantage Of not intruding upon
the planting time Of the other crops.
They should have good cultivation as
soon as up and then continuously
until the pods begin to form. but not
after that, as there is then danger that
the soil will discolor the beans.
They may be cut with a mower,
though some prefer hand pulling.
The harvesting should be done as
4AINN4J ''o po0'oAo4C dAISA lIc C1op 10
ripe, as exposure to rains will soon
depreciate it's value. The thrashing
may be done by machine or by hand
if the crop is small: With the same
cultivation the crop should be nearly
as large as the wheat yield would be,
and one has but to compare the market
reports to see which is the more profit
able.

FARMERS AND POULTRY SHOWS

There are held every winter be-

fifty to seventy-fve, end perhaps more,
poultry shows in different parts. of the
United States.
Willie til. Sc shows are primarily for
the benefit of the breeder of thorough
bred poultry, they are also greatly to
the advantage of the farmer who will
take pains to attend them. We be-
lieve in putting new blood into the
farmers flock of fowls, and we be-
lieve in inspiring d new interest on
their part in the raising of thorough
bred poultry, and there is no place
where the farmer can gain so much
information in so short a time if he
will use his eyes and ears intelligently,
as at show of thoroughbred poultry.
Ten minutes cony ersation with a prac-
uoal breeder Of poultry will give him
more points ON the subject, that will
be of help to him in the future, than
he can gain i'll any other way in the

HOW GRANT BECAME A SMOKER.
Interview with Colonel Frederick d.
Grant about His Father

My father" said Colonel Grant,
tried to smoke While at West Point,
but only because it was against the
regulations; and then he didn't succeed
very well at it. He really got the
habit from smoking light cigars and
cigarettes during the Mexican war, but
ii wasn't a fixed habit When he left
,.-. u"a!! ana liyet n the country, he
smoked Il pipe-nOt incessantly.
don't think that he was very fond of
tobacco then, and really there was al
ways popular miScOnception Of the
amount of his smoking. But he went
on as light smoker, a casual smoker,
until the day of the fall of Fort DoneI-
son. Then the gun-bOats having been
WOrsted somewhat, and Admiral FoOte
having been wounded, he sent ashore
for my father to come and see him.
Father went aboard, and the admiral,
as is customary, had his cigars passed.
My father took one, and was smoking
it when he went ashore. There he was
met by staff officer, who told him
that there was a SOrtie and the right
wing had been struck and smashed in.
Then my father started for the scene
of operations. He let his cigar go out,
naturally, but held it between his fin
gers. He rode hither and yOn, giving
orders and directions, still with the
cigar stump in his hand. The result of
his eXertiOnS was that Fort Donelson
fell after he sent his message of I'm
conditional surrender and L propose
to move Immediately upon your works.
With the message was sent all over
the county the news that Grant was
smoking throughout the battle, when
he only had carried this stump from
Foote'S flagship. But the cigars began
to come in from all over the union.
He had eleven thousand cigars on
hand in a very short time He gave
away all he could, but he was so sur
rounded with cigars that he got to
smoking them regularly But he never
smoked as much as he seemed to
smoke. He would light a cigar after
breakfast and let it go out, and then
light it again, and then again let it go
out and light it; so that the one cigar
would last until lunch time"

CHAPTER NNXIV.
The Capitulation of Vayres.

The CapltulatOn OF NayreS.
The day after the interview Of Ca
nolles with Madame de Cambes, she
went to the princess, with the inten-
ton of fulfilling her promise to him.
All the city was in a tumult; they had
just heard of the arrival of the king
before VayreS, and of the admirable
conduct Of Richou, who with five hun
dred men had repulsed the royal army
of twelve thousand. Madame la Prin-
cesse was in ecstasies. and exclaimed,
"Oh, why have [ not one hundred
captains like my brave Richou?'
Claire joined in the general admira-
ton for a man whom she esteemed,
and thought also that a time of sue
cess was a good one for her request
But the princess was so occupied with
the task of sending aid to Richou, that
Claire found it impossible to obtain
any attention to her private affairs
that day. In a few words she told all
this to Candles, and begged him to
wait patiently another day.
The next day the reinforcements set
off, but as they had both wind and
tide against them it was calculated
that they could not arrive until the
day after.
Rayailly, who commanded, was in
structed also to inspect the citadel of
Branne, which belonged to the queen,
and the governorship of which was
vacant.
The whole morning had passed away
in expediting the departure of the

WHAT CROP OF 1893.

A recent report of the department. of
agriculture estimated the wheat crop
of 1893 at 396OOO,OOO bushels The
Cincinnati Price Current, one of the
most reliable trade journals published,
regards 450,000,000 bushels as a mod
crate estimate Of the crop; this is "a
100000 bushels above the government
report. 1t characteriZes the govern
ment report as the most faulty one
ever offered from the government
bureau. The question whether the de
partment has underestimated the crop
of 1893, as it did in 1891 and 1892, is
to be investigated. The senate has
adopted the following resolution:
Whereas, A number of leading com
mercial newspapers, like Bradsreet's
Weekly, the Cincinnati Price Current,
and many others persistently dispute
the reports of the agricultural depart
ment relative to the yearly wheat
crops of this country and its estimates
of the amount of wheat in this coun-
try at different periods usually largely
increasing the quantities beyond those
published in the reports and estimates
of said department.; and
Whereas Such printed statements
from unauthorized sources largely con-
troll the market price of wheat, and
thereby reduce it's price to American
wheat producers, to their great injury.
if the reports and estimates of the
agricultural department are correct;
therefore,
Resolved, That the secretary Of
agriculture be and hereby is directed
to send to the senate at his earliest
convenience:
Il. A statement of all the wheat, in
Guiding the visible and the invisible,
there was in this country March /.
1893, together with the entire wheat
crop harvested in this country during
that year.
so. The amount Of wheat that has
been used for food and seed purposes
between March /, 1893, and Feb. 1,
1894; the amount Of wheat that will
be required for like purposes in this
country between Feb. 1 and July l,
1894, together with the amount Of
wheat and flour as wheat that has
been exported out of this country since
March 1, 1898, with the surplus avail
able for export between Feb. l and
July 1, 1894, after deducting the above
| from the estimated surplus March 1,
1898, and the entire wheat crop of
that year, according to the latest in
| formation and most reliable expert
ence found in his department"
/ The resolution courteously assumes
/ that the departments figures are cor
rect, but it will lead to a searching in
vestigation of its method of crop re-
! porting. If the departments est
mates are correct, the price Of wheat
mas been depressed by the statements
in the trade journals, greatly to the
/ injury of the producers. If the jour-
mails are right, the department is re-
/ sponsible for the disappointment in
prices which the producers have suf-
/ feref. The forthcoming report will
/ be read with interest.

Cost of Field CrODs

A record of the cost and profit in
growing rye, oats, wheat, corn and hay
was kept on the Nebraska station farm
in 1892. The cost of planting and
harvesting per bushel was as follows:
Rye, 1913 cents; oats, III cents; five
varieties Of wheat, 23.4, 1914, 16.6, 264
and 276 cents; corn On different fields,
2343 and 149 cents. T he cost of
growing Timothy and clover hay on
three fields was only S1.34, S1.32 and
S0.S4 per ton. The fields varied in
area from one to So acres, and the
crops were treated substantially &C
cording to prevalent practice in the
state. Labor was uniformly charged
at the rate of So per day for man and
team. Taxes and interest were not
reckoned among the expenses. Land
was valued at $50 per acre. The sell
ing price of rye and wheat was 30
cents per bushel, of oats and corn 80
cents per bushel, and Of hay So per
ton.

urge the farmers, and farmers sons
and daughters, TO attend the poultry
shows if there are any held in their
vicinity, even if they have to so some
distance to reach them.
These shows bring the best speci-
mems of the different breeds, and the
farmer can make a comparison be
tween them and select those which
are best adapted to his wants. The
sooner the farmer gets the idea out
OF his head that anything in the shape
of fowls will do, the sooner he will
begin to reap some benefit from the
grain which he feeds and the care
which he gives them. In the matter
of egg production alone, the difference
between twenty-five cents a dozen and
S1.50 TO three dollars per sitting of
thirteen, shows one particular where
he may see it to his advantage to do
something with thoroughbred fowls

s'Alas! we know it, sir. Therefore.

lieving it to be just one"
Good" said Guitant, that is all
wish to know" and he returned to
the marshal to recount what had
passed.
Let fifty men," said the marshal
go into that village and bring all the
ladders they can find. Meanwhile,
gentlemen, get off your horses; nalf
of you armed with muskets shall scale
the walls, and the other half shall
cover the attack"
The fifty men soon returned with
about twenty ladders. Then the royal
forces, which amounted to about four
hundred men, commenced the attack
with d volley of muSketry. A single
cannon replied from the fortress. The
ball passed over the first ranks, struck
down four or five soldiers, and then
struck one Of the horses of the queens
carriage. A cry Of terror burst from
the group around; the queen nearly
tainted with rage, and Mazarin with
fear. They cut the traces of the
horses, for they, half mad with terror,
threatened to destroy the carriage;
then ten men drew it out Of reach of
the fire. Meanwhile, the governor
showed a battery of six guns.
When NJ. de Meilleraye saw this,
which would soon have destroyed his
little troop, he thought it useless TO
continue the attack, and ordered his
men to retire, which they no sooner
commenced to do, than all hostile pre-
partitions vanished from the fortress.
The marshal returned to the queen,
begging her to choose some other place
to pass the night The queen noticed
on the other side of the Dordogne, a
little chateau half hid among trees.

belongs, and whether we can be re-

river in ferry-boat, and returned, say
ing, that it belonged to the Duo d'Eper-

Majesty.
