MAKING ALFALFA HAY.

The conversion of a heavy mass of
alfalfa into choice quality Of hay is
an operation, says B. F. Stuart, in
"Arid America calling for no small
degree of skill and experience. But the
process is one to be learned by intelli-
gent observation and practice, rather
than from a written description. The
first and second crops of each season
need to be cured with special care or
they will certainly mould in the stack.
Beginners need to beware on this
boint The knack to be acquired is
that the curing of hay sufficiently TO
insure its keeping sweet in the stack,
without becoming so dry as to shed its
leaves in the handling. This cannot
possibly be accomplished by curing
fully in the swath. A method much
practiced is to rake the alfalfa while
quite green into winrows, where it is
allowed to cure somewhat more, and
finally to make it into moderate sized
cocks in which it is allowed to stand
until ready for the stack. This process
makes very nice hay, but where a
large acreage is to be taken care of.
it is too slow and expensive. Alfalfa
may be cured with entire success in
the windrows, but it is important
when cured in this way, that there be
ample facilities for putting it into the
stack very rapidly when ready, other
wise it will soon become too dry and
much of it will be lost in handling, es-
pecially if it has to be carried from
the field on wogons. Alfalfa should be
cut on the first appearance of bloom,
as experiments have proved its nutri-
tive ratio to be considerably higher at
that stage later on.

material as is used by the Indians
today for bedding and other purposes.
This packing was as dry as finder
and on being carefully lifted what
spectacle was revealed to our eyes.
There lay the slight form of per-
fectly mummified Indian girl, appar-
emily about Is years of age at the
time of her death.
With the exception Of the face, bust,
hands and feet, the body was wound
transverseIy with bands of nicely
tanned buckskin, the folds overlapping
each other SO as to make altogether
about three-ply wrapping. The ex-
posed portions of the body were of
rich copper color, beautifully smooth
and as hard to the touch as polished
bone or ivory. The jet-black hair was
cut squarely off all around and reached
well down on the forehead A low
hanging string of fresh water shells
(periWinkles) encircled the shapely
neck and set off in no uncanny style
the prettily formed BOSOM The hands
rested by the side of the body, the
arms and lower limbs down to the an
kles being closely bound with buckskin.
The prominent forehead was in refresh
ing contrast with the ungainly fiat
heads so common among the Puget
sound Indians Of the present day The
features We're regular and bore the
impress of a pleasant countenance in
life. BY slight parting of the some
what protruding lips a faultless set
of front teeth was revealed, the re-
markable Whiteness Of which. together
with the perfect contour of the mouth
and general makeup of the body.
would seem to indicate that final dis
solution was not the result of wasting
disease.
The body rested upon a sort of pal
let resting upon material similar to
that of the packing beneath the lid
1t measures, 5 feet 2 inches in height
and weighs with its wrappings 371A
pounds Now, as to whether the en-
balming process in the case of this
Indian maiden was the outcome of a
freak of nature or due to human de-
sign or agency, is problem which we
leave to those experts best qualified to
solve.
That the girl died and her body was
deposited in tree considerably more
than a hundred years ago. there GER
tainly is no question. 1t is a mathe-
NAUTICAL fact that the tell tale fir which
we felled was a, seeding in the year
1868, more than a third of a century
prior to the famous expedition of Lew
is and Clark to this coast. The cedar
tree which curtained the mummy was
seven feet in diameter ten feet from
the ground and so dense of foliage
that little or no rain could have fallen
on the casket. This venerable patri-
arch of the forest stands in the midst
of heavy growth of other cedars, frs,
hemlock and spruce, through whose
interlaced branches a ray of sunlight
never falls. and consequently the SOM
bre shade beneath is little better than
eternal night.

ONCE A SLAVE.
But Now He Rules the Country as a
COnquerOr.


COnquerOr.
Tripolf traders who have come in
lately from Bornu, in the Soudan, tell
an exciting tale of the rise of new
conqueror. His name is Rabah, a
slave, and later lieutenant of 1e-
behr Pasha, formerly Egyptian gov
ernor of Darfur.
When Gordon fell Rabah, who was
collecting taxes liz the Soudan, made
his way with body of fighting men
to Baghirmi, southeast of Lake Tchad,
and not only held his own against the
Mahdists, but conquered the country
far and wide.
He then turned against the sultan
of Bornu, whose capital is Kuka, on
Lake Tchad, where the traders were.
Ashem. the sultan, was defeated, and
Klari, Ashem's nephew, who succeeded
as sultan, gathered fresh forces and
attacked Rabah again and again, but
was always repulsed. Rabah is a free
lance, fighting for his own band and
profit; his army lives on pillage. He
is a tall, spare negro, very energetic
and of simple tastes.
He has collected a large store OF
gold, silver, coral, feathers and ivory,
and has a good number of modern RI
f1es. His power is absolute. and he is
rapidly forming powerful state be-
hind the French, English and German
Hinterlands.

TIE DEMOCRACY OF RELIGION.

Know this that every soul is free,
To choose mis- life and what he'll be;
For this eternal truth is given,
That God will force no man to heaven.
He'll call, persuade direct Alright,
Bless him with wisdom, love, and light,
In nameless ways be good and kline
But never force the human mind.
Freedom and reason make US men:
Take these away what are we then:
Mere animals. and just as well
The beasts may think of heaven or hell.
1t is my free will this to believe;
IT'S Gods free will me to receive.
To stubborn willers this I'll tell,
'Tis all free grace and all free will.
May we no more our powers abuse,
But ways of truth and goodness choose:
Our God is pleased when we improve
His grace. and seek his perfect love.
Those who despise grow harder still;
Those who adhere, he turns their will:
And thus cespisers sink to hell,
While those who heed in glory dwell.

HOW no PRoPAGATE ROSES.

There is simple process of roofing
cuttings which is, by far the most con-
venient for amateurs, called the saucer
system. This consists in filing plates or
saucers with sand, inserting the cuttings
close together ian inch or so apart, Civ
ing water so the sand gets into semi
liquid state, then placed in sunny win
dow of the dwelling house or on the
to the sun and never shaded. All that is
further required is that the sand must
be kept in the condition of mud until
from ten to twenty days, according to
the temperature or state of the cuttings
Great care must be taken that they never
go dry or the whole operation will fail
and one that during hot weather is pre-
ferable to others.

GATHERING AND DRYING PRIMES.

d. Edison Smith in the Rural Cali
fornian gives these pointers on prune-
gathering and drying: Prunes should be
shaken from the tree on canvas placed
Under the branches. Do not shake hard
enough to cause the stems of the fruit
to break. When at the right stage OF
ripeness fruit is easily SHAKEN from the,
stem. Gather the corners of the canvas
and pour that fruit into boxes.
Draw your boxes of fruit to your drv-
ing ground and run it over a grader OF
some kind. separating the large from The
small. and the leaves from the fruit To
facilitate the drying the skin of the
fruit should be punctured in some way
One method is to dip the fruit in strong
boiling lye-water in a wire basket for
ten seconds, more or less. You will
notice that the skin of each fruit will
soon fill with minute creases, the time
varying with the strength of tbs Ire. But
wheC well creased moved and plunge
into pure cold water. Unless running
water il should be frequently changed
so that the I've may be washed from the
fruit The prunes should now be placed
on the drying trays for drying. The lat
est method is to run the sfruit from the
grader to a machine that washes and
and punctures il. Allow to dry suf-
1iciently to avoid mold hard dried is IN
desirable. Uniformity OF grade and
quality is best secured where growers in
a given locality dry on the cooperative
plan.

THE WINDMILL ON THE Farm.

An Ohio farmer says: 'I have an
aermotor windmill that grinds for me
and my neighbors. 1t cost me in the
neighborhood of 500. Repsirs have
cost but a trifle, say 81 per year. which
include new grinding plates when the
old ones are worn This rig viii grind
in a gale $50 bushels of grain in twelve
hours. 1t wild run a cornSsheller or
feed cutter extremely well. 1t pumps
water for 500 sheep and either stock.
1t saws wood with power that is sur
prising 1t will saw about two cords
per hour with good wind. There are
other mills besides the aermotor THAI
win do similar work. On our form this
power is easily worth $50 per year sok
US do not know but $50 would na3gs
nearly express it.

Noblesse ObIige.

IT'S wisdom's law, the perfect code
BY love inspired
OF him on whom much is bestowed
Is much required
The tuneful throat is bid to sing,
The oak must reign the forests king;
The rushing stream the wheel must move
The tempered steel its strength must
prove:
TITS given with the eagles eyes
To face the midday skies.
sIf 1 am weak and you are strong,
Why, then, why, then,
To you the drawer deeds belong!
And so, again,
If you have gifts and have none,
If l have shade and you have sun,
IT'S yours with freer hand to give,
IT'S yours with truer grace to live,
Than I, who giltless, sunless, stand
With barren life and hand"

The Right of Way.

BY the common law of England,
which has validity in this as well as
in the mother country, persons using
a piece of ground or foot-path, un-
forbidden by the owners, for a GER
tain term of years, acquire legal
right to it. This law has produced
some singular results.
A large portion of the most fashion
able quarter of London belongs to the
private estate of the Duke of Port
land, who, during one day in each
year, puts gates and bars across the
crowded streets. This annual muteaas-
sertion of his rights prevents these
thoroughfares from becoming the prop
erty of the public.
a few plowmen, thirty years ago,
going from a village in Yorkshire to
their work, made, unheeded, "a short
CUT through a park belonging to an
other English duke. When, two years
ago, he proposed to build a palace on
his estate, it was found that this foot
path would pass directly through the
drawing room. He offered to buy it
from the villagers at a high price, but
they obstinately refused. The palace
is not yet built, and probably never
will be on that site.
In the most crowded business part
of PHILADELPHIA, where every inch of
ground is of great value, the stranger
is surprised to see, between massive
and towering stone buildings, a little
green wooden door, opening into
passageway too narrow for two men
to walk abreast. It is a right of way
acquired in the days of Penn by the
owners of certain property to reach
green fields" The fields are now dusty
streets, crowded with vehicles and troll
ley cars.
Estates often lose a large percentage
Of their value because of a right of
way heedlessly granted by some good
natured owner long ago to his neigh
bors.
This curious point of common. law
has singular parallel in the law of
our own lives. We thoughtlessly give
an entrance into them to bad thoughts
or wrong habits, and awake to find
that the intruders are owners of the
way into our souls, and can never be
forced out.
Or there come into our characters
when we are children habits of pray
er, OF cheerfulness, of telling the
truth, that are held and remain until
naturer years. No trouble, no age will
ever drive these good angels out of
our lives. We have given them the
right of way, and they will keen it
