Foul Air in a Well.

| saw, says writer fn the Globe
Democrat, curious method used the
other day in Illinois, to take tie foul
air out of a we'll The we'll was to be
cleaned, but the man that took the Job
was afraid to 60 down until he bad as
certained the quality of the air at the
bottom. He let down a lighted candle
and when it descended to about six
feet of the bottom it went out as sud
denly as though extinguished by a
whiff of air That was all he wanted
70 know. He was then sure that the
we'll had poisonous gas in it, and took
small umbrella, tied a string to the
handle and lowered it open into the
we'll. Having let it 60 nearly TO the
bottom, he drew it UP, carried it few
feet from the well and upset it. He re-
Gated this operation twenty or thirty
ines. with all the bystanders laughing
at him. then again lowered his light
which burned clear and bright even at
the bottom. He then condescended 10
explain that the gas in the we'll was
carbonic acid gas. which is heavier than
air, and therefore could be brought up
in an umbrella just as though it were
so much water. 1t was simple, yet
perfectly effective.

Sheep On the Farm.
st. Louis Republic

st. Louis Republic
An all-purpoSe animal suits the farm
er best This isespecially true Of sheep
The sheep that is wanted Is one that
will grow a good fleece Of medium wool
The quality and the quantity must
be good, and, at the same time, a good
carcass of mutton i demanded Under
present conditions ii is the general pur-
pose sheep Of good grade that will pay
the best profit
At the same time no one breed 0.
sheep VIII be best on all soils or under
all conditions Some thrive best in one
locality and some in another In max
ing a selection care must be taken TO
get the kind best adopted to the condi-
tons they must be kept under While
few sheep may be kept on almost
every farm. yet anything like large
flock requires plenty Of dry, nutritious
pasture, with an abundant supply Of
good water There are few sheep that
will give anything like satisfactory re-
suits kept in low, wet land, seeded too
heavy, coarse grasses or supplied with
impure water.
With wool as with other products
there is no possible advantage it stint
ing the feed and care at the expense of
the growth and quality. If the sheep
are allowed to.run down in winter there
will be a weak place in the fiber Of the
wool, and, as quality is an important
factor, 1t will pay to use care to have
the best growth and quality.
Farmers who are convenient to a
good market can make early spring
lambs very profitable. Another farmer
inconvenient to market that is ONLY
keeping a few sheep Will find that to
make the most profit he must feed his
sheep to full growth and make good
muttons and good wool rather more a
specially.
At this season sheep are too often al
lowed to run down. They are on dry
feed now, and if they are kept in thrifty
condition a little extra care must be
given them. It VIII pay to give this,
otherwise it will require more or less
of the best season for growth to make
| up what has been lost during the win
ter.

There's little harm in failing.

And made my boasts aboutlt;
My wit and toll bring little gold
But / am rich without it.
| said 'The world shall bear my name,
And down the ages shout it -
l shall not win the bauble fame
I'm just as great without it.
l thought to know philosophy,
And teach the world about it;
My plumnet will not sound the sea,
My ship sails on without it,
Another thing I've had to prove,
Though | used to doubt 1t
One can't be sure of human love,
But one can live without.
I saw the world with wrong o'ergrown,
And bravely fought to rout it
Some age Will see it overthrown-

Nothing is vain that | can do,
For soul-growth comes Of doing.

Renovating Worn-out land.
Exchange.

Exchange.
Prof. w. F. Massey, of the North
Carolina Experiment Station, has writ
ten letter On the subject of 'Renova-
ting Worn-out Land" Of which tie
following is an extract
''The wonderful rapidity and low cost
at which our worn-out lands can be
brought to great prOductiveness is a
constant surprise No better illustra-
ton can be found than the lands at
tached to the North Carolina Agricul-
tural Experiment Station. Only few
years ago this was a bare hilltop in an
old field, and, notoriously, the most
povertv-strlcken spot of land in the
county. 1t might perhaps have made,
in a good season, five bushels of corn
per acre, probably less And yet we
have on this pOverty-strcken hill, to-
day, q variety and luxuriance of growth
which is surprising to those who have
known the land And it has not been
by lavish expenditure if the station
funds that it has been brought up.
but merely by the aid of those potent
factors in soil improvement in the
South, COW peas and crimson clover.
and at no greater cost than any farmer
can afford. We have one piece ofland.
several acres in extent. which has grown
a crop of ensilage corn every year for
four years The first years crop was a
miserably poor one, and each succeed
ing one better while this wear, crop
would have made forty to fifty bushels
of corn yer acre had i been cured iJ~
grain. The agent in this was crimson
clover alued by deep plowlng Of TIE rec.
clayey soil. Each season, as the corn
is cut off, seed of crimson clover is sown
on the land. By April it is knee high
and is turned under later, when fully
mature, and corn is planted. In the
short space of four wears this barren
hillside has come to rival the rich bot
tom lands at cost of $50 per acre
for clover seed.

Scap-Suds for Calming Waves.


La Nature.
The remarkable action of oil upon
waves is well known. This phenomena
led the officers of the steamship Scan
dia, of Hamburg, to make an expert
ment upon the same principle that was
very successful and that appears to us
worthy of mention. During its last
trip to the United States, the Vessel
while IN mid-ocean, was attacked by q
very heavy storm l then occurred to
the officers to dissolve large quantity
of soap IN tubs of water Having
thus obtained several hundred gallons
of soap suds IN a very short time, they
threw it overheard in front of the ship
The effect was almost instantaneous,
and the vessel soon began to navigate
without difficulty. Her officers at once
addressed a long report to the Hydro
graphic Bureau of the United States,
giving an account of their voyage, the
storm, and the means that they en-
poved to still the waves They con-
cluded by saying that soap suds does not
produce absolutely all the effects upon
water that oil does. it at least suftices to
break the force of waves in most cases
Besides, this method recommends itself
to transportation companies careful Of
their interests. Soap suds is much
cheaper than oil, and relatively large
quantity of soap can be carried without
encroachlng too much upon the
space set apart for passengers and mer-
chandise.

Vaccination Facts.
atlanta Constitution.


A pamphlet on "Variola and Vac
cinsa," recently issued by the New
England Vaccine Association, CON
tains some facts of timely interest, just
at present
Before the discovery Of vaccination
smallpox ragged all over the inhabited
globe In England the plague carried
off 5000 in each 100000 Of popula-
ton annually. Russia lost 1900, 600
in a single year. From 1888 to 1893
one-tenth of the dea'h rate of Berlin
was due to this disease More than
900 Indians were destroyed by it in
one year in the province of Quito, South
America 1t killed Queen Mary, Of
England Joseph l, Of Germany Peter
II, of Russia, and scores OF the mem
bers Of royal families In the seven
teenth century two-thirds of the pau
per blind in England we're made blind
by this cause In the sixteenth CEN
tury 100000 people in Mexico died
of it, In 1874 nearly twO-thirds of the
population OF Greenland were swept
away by it, and in Iceland $4,000 per-
sons died out of $4,000. Whole tribes
of American Indians were completely
exterminated by the disease.
When vaccination became general
this fearful mortality ceased. Before
the work Of the vaccination corps in
New York prior to 1876, the smallpox
death rate was 59.47 per 100000.
Since that time it has only been S3S
per 100000. In German cities where
vaccination is compulsory, the small
pox death rate is only LA per 100 ,OOO
In London under the same system, the
death rate from this disease is only
6 per 100000. In the canton of Zu-
rich, Switzerland, since the compulsory
vaccination law was repealed the NOR
tality from smallpox has risen from s
to IS per 100000.
1t would be easy to fill columns with
similar statistics Atlanta's prompt re-
sort to compulsory vaccination years
ago has undoubtly saved the city from
perhaps more than one terrible small
pox epidemic.
But our people make a mistake in
ignoring vaccination until there is act
ual danger. Every citizen should see
to it that he and the members of his
family have this safeguard, whether
there is any talk of smallpox Or not.
1t is also we'll enough for persons to be
vaccnated two or three times in the
course of lifetime. It is a prevent
i've and should be utilized. The un-
vaccinated citizen may any day be
come distributing center of smallpox
However reckless he may be, he has nc
right to increase the danger of his
neighbors.
