SHRINKAGE BY STORAGE.
Table Rased on the Experience of q
Number of Years.

Number of Years.
The loss from the shrinkage of stored
grain and potatoes is figured out as
follows: This estimate is made on the
basis OF interest at per cent, but
takes no account of the additional de-
probation due to depredations of rats,
mice and smaller vermin:
Wheat from the time it is threshed
will shrink quarts to the bushel, or
6 per cent. in six months, in the most
favorable circum stances. Hence. it
follows that "a cents bushel for
wheat when first threshed in August
is as good as 81 the following Feb
ruary. Corn shrinks much more from
the time it is husked; 100 bushels of
ears, as they come from the field in
November, will be reduced to not far
from so. So that 40 cents bushel for
corn in the ear as it comes from the
field, is as good as so cents in March,
In the case of potatoes taking those

gether with the shrinkage, there is
but little doubt that between October
and June the loss to the owner who
holds them is not less than 80 per cent

thrive. 1t has creeping roots like
couch grass, and serves well to hold
the banks OF bitches and to strengthen
turf of sandy soil. 1t has been favor
ably reported on by the Mississippi,
North Carolina, Georgia, Florida,
Louisiana and Wyoming stations.
Awnless bronze grass (also known as
smooth or Hungarian brome) remains
green in winter in the south, where it
is esteemed for grazing. 1t grows well
in cold climates, and Canadian reports
speak very highly of this newly intro
duced grass both for its nutritive quail
tiles and luxuriant habit of growth.
1t should however, be introduced verv
cautiously, as it makes long, strong
underground root stocks, which are
difficult to eradicate.

To this calm spot will never come,
The turmoil Of the battle plain,
The quick alarm of hoisterous

The thrilling bugle's wild refrain,
No screaming shell will e'er ap-

Nor charging yell, nor answering
cheer, So 90
Upon these graves will never fall,
The war clouds shadow, dark and

And high above the embrasured

Der dust roads, on weary tramps,
Der fortressed heights their

Their is happier fate by far
Than that of thousands of our
braves,
Who fell upon red field Of war,
And sleep in unknown, unmark-

Here loving hands may still be-
strew,
And fairest flowers above them
heap,
And kindred tears may oft bedew,
The mounds meath which their
loved ones sleep.
But they, midst gloom Of tangled

By inland stream, or sad sea

Or where the swaying solemn

Wall requiems DER their lonely

Or on the mountains rocky face,
In open fields, by bayou tide,
Just where they fell in deaths EN- =

They sleep, who for their country
died.
The silent forests where they lie,
No longer hide embattled lines,
No camp fires tint the midnight
sky,
Nor war cry echo through the
pines.
No longer on the breezy crests,
Are ranged the flaming angry
gurs.
In tranquil peace our country rests,
And guards the fame Of fallen
sons.
Though friend and kindred are de-

The mournful rights of love to

With fragrant bud and blossom to

The graves that hold their pre-

We know that natures kindly

Will cover them with verdant

Showing His Ticket Every Time.'
From the London Weekly Telegraph

FROM lne LOuuOn W eehly IeleSEdpn.J
At small railway station in North
Wales the station master IWho is not
noted for his affability of manner),
while examining tickets came across a
cattle dealer, well known in the dis
trict, who held a season ticket. The
station master, being aware of this,
usually passed him without troubling
him to show it. On this occasion,
however, he ordered him, in a not very
polite manner, to produce it, adding,
in a severe tone, "Mind, want to see
it every time you stop at this station"
Of course the ticket was produced, ex-
amined and the official passed on, look
ing very important and self-satisfied.
A few days later, as the early morning
mail train drew up at the platform at
about 3 a. m, a passenger accosted the
solitary porter on duty, and asked for
the station master.
He's in bed, sir" replied the porter.
"Tell him l want him. said the
passenger.
The porter disappeared, and after
some delay returned, closely followed
by the station master, who was growl-
ing at being brought out of bed in the
cold. On going to the carriage he was
confronted by his old friend the cattle

whose wife told him that if she went to
sea the poor sailors for whom she cooked
would never find fault with their food !;
SO her husband took her with him on
his next voyage. Now this good woman
attended to the cooking herself, and the
scouse was thick with fresh vegetables,
the bread was white and destitute of
weevils, the meat was good, and the
duff almost half plums; but still the
men growled. Then the shippers wife
bethought her of the hens she had
brought, to lay eggs for her husband,
and she killed and roasted them, and
sent them forward to the forecastle on
the cabin china.
"At last" she said in triumph, 1.-THE

Hold the Fort" not Popular
From the Youths Companion

A few years ago, when "Hold the
Fortn was one of the new and popular
hymns, the superintendent of Sun
day school in Connecticut town took
a great dislike to the song. After hear
ing the story, readers may be disposed
to think that his autipathy was not
without reason. 1t was at a children's
day exercise of the Sunday school.
The arrangeme its We're for the whole
school, headed By the uperintendent,
to make triumphal entry into the
church, in which the audience were
already seated. Accordingly, a hun
dred or more boys and girls formed in
line, each class headed by its teacher,
and carrying banners, marched in at
one of the side entrances. AS they
marched, they sang "Hold the Fort. y
The superintendent, smiling and per-
haps a little pompous, led the way
At the moment of entering the church
they were beginning the second stanza
which runs:
''See the mighty host advancing,
Satan leading on
The audience was quick to appreciate
the righteousness of The situation, and
a ripple of amusement went through
tlle cHuTcn. ceFeTI III tHe procession
stopped singing and smiled. The awk-
wardness of his position dawned on the
superintendent, and he turned very
red. Some of the children, seeing their
elders smiling, laughed outright. A
complete breakdown was imminent,
when one of the teachers began to sing
Coward, Christian Soldiers" This
was Immediately taken up by the
whole school, and a fairly successful
entry was made. "Hold the Fortn has
never since been favorite with that
Sunday school.
