Importance OF Ramie Culture.

Prof. s. WaterhOuse, Of Washington
University, st. Louis, Mo-. who has

a ramie industry in the Southern
States. makes a strong appeal to Cop

$1,000 year for the study Of fibres and
the test of improved stripping ma
chimes. Prof. Warehouses; services
have been wholly gratuitOus and Will so
continue. hence his appeal cannot be
charged to selfishness, but must be re-
garded as an unselfish effort to promote
a great industry. In his appeal in be-
half of the small appropriation men-
toned the Professor says:
..Ramie is an exquisitely fine and sur
passingiy strong fiber. Though slight
~ less glossy. it is far more durable
than silk. Its range of use is widely
varied. The demand for this valuable
and lustrously beautiful fiber far ex-
ceeds the supply. Ramie grows in our
Gulf States as luxuriantly as maize.
Under favorable conditions it yields

Draining Heavy Clay Land.

1t is often recommended to make
drains in heavy soils very shallow, SO,
rs Is said, that "the water may be able
to soak down into the drain" This
difficulty in getting water to soak
through clay is greatly exaggerated in
popular estimation. Farmers see the
.undrained clay soils flooded with water
which, as it will not so down into the
subsoil, they think is held back by an
imperyious barrier Of clay. But in all
clay lands where vegetation has grown
will be found small natural water
courses, the places where roots have
run and where they have decayed. All
these when water stands on the SUI
face will be found filled with water.
Until it can find an outlet below this
water must remain stagnant. But so
coon as the underdrain is dug these
small pipes will find their way to it,
though it be three or even four feet
deep. When clay soil is stirred while
wet it is said to be puddled. Then the
small natural water courses are broken
up, and the clay becomes nearly per-

On Cleaning.

On CleanlnRs
The question is often asked what to
do with soiled ivory, and many elabor-
ate directions have been put in print
from time to time, but woman who
dared has discovered recently that one
of the scrubbing sand soaps may be
used with impunity. 1t does not yellow
the ivory, nor does it scratch 1t. 1t
should be rubbed on a fine nail-brush
and the ivory scrubbed as if It were
china. Brass, copper and their alloys
should be cleaned with polishing paste
in preference to silver powder. Oxi-
died ornaments need only washing
and hard rubbing with flannel or
chamois. White metal is most useful,
in that it requires little or no care. Sill
yer powder is, of course, the best pos
sible cleanser for silver. Venetian iron
work should be oiled to keep it from
rusting. Kerosene may be used with
safety.

Dependence on Single Crops.

Dependence On Single CrOpss
It is all right to have specialties, but
until fully tested they should never be
wholly depended upon. There will need
always to be some other crop, not
merely to make up for possible failure
of the specially, but to make profitable
use of time that cannot be employed
in it. There are no crops that require
all the time to be devoted to cultivating
and harvesting them. and very few that
can be grown with profit unless there is
opportunity to employ time and labor
on something besides the speciality.
