Institute Notes.

In recent issue of the Practical Farm
er I. B. Terry discusses the value of kind
ness In handling and feeding domestic
animals AT one institute a farmer read an
excellent paper on What Kindness Will
Do for the Farmer" 1t was full of incl
dents that had come under his observation
Wnere Kindness had paid in dollars and
CENTS. FOR example, man put out 40 pigs
TO De fed on shares, half to one neighbor
ana half to another, divided so there was
no cnOlce between them. One lot gained so
pounds per head more than the other. Each
lot was fed all the corn they could eat and
they were kept alike except in the way
OF treatment. When the owner went to
visit the lot that gained the least the feed
er would give them a kick, II he could get
up TO any lying down, or set the dog on
them to stir them UP. He was rough and
brutal with them. When the owner visited
the other feeding lot he saw the pigs petted
and spoken kindly to. The man liked pigs,
ana they were tame and quiet, and the
owner considered that the extra gain of 1000
pounds was entirely owing to this kind
treatment A man who likes cows or
sneep or pigs, will be more likely to sue
coed with Them because he will treat them
kindly and be gentle with them.
Hon. r. S. Sutton, q business man liv-
ing at Shelbyville. Ind, told us at the in
stftute there that he had kept a strict ac-
count last year with his farm, and 1t had
PAID him 10 per cent net. He has a tenant
on 1t farming on shares, and he says the
tenant did better than he did, as he got
much Of his living from the farm aside
from his share of the regular crops. It Is
no uncommon thing to have business men
who figure closely. and know what thew
are doing, show us that they are making
from to 10 per cent net on the money
they have invested in a farm. This GER
tainly is not bad business showing. no.

Our Stock supply-A Prophecy.

From time to time indications have been
noted that the live stock supply of the
country is not increasing with the popula-
ton. Statistics show a slight tendency to
decline in the ratio of domestic animals to
man In this country. The statistics of the
department Of agriculture have often run
contrary to markets or to market supplies.
leading many to hastily question their ac-
curacy. The supplies Of markets are, how
ever, not always a correct index of the ma
terials In first hands, for often producers
are led to place their products on the mar
ket governed by some common impulse.

FUrm Notes.
The world is full of people who never
recognize good opportunity until they see
it's back.
Our plans for next season should all be
made now, while we have time to think
them out Without them, in the hurry of
spring work, we will be obliged to start
out in the old, old ruts There are many
men who not even farming the best
they know how. Every year should be
year of progress.
Before the successful farmer commences
to prepare his land for the coming crop,
the tools should be seen after; the plows,
harrows, hoes, cultivators and clod crush
ers should be taken out and all deficiencies
in them should be repaired. The dull ones
should be sharpened, loose bolts, ETC., tight
ened and broken harness mended.
To unproductive ground the leguminous
crops brings nitrogen absorbed from the
air, and manures supply simple elements
which make a balance in the constituency
thereof Land which Is unproductive is
not necessarily exhausted; the elements of
fertility may lie there in an unavailable
FORM
Half pound and pound butter prints are
very popular among private customers
Vehy likely the hens have been fed too
freely on grain, especially corn, and are
now over fat. Such diet should not be
continued longer. Give more meat, more
more egg making material.
Good breeding must be accompanied by
good performance at the pail or the COW
is a failure.
Keep one eye open to the sunny side
of things; it will tighten your burdens and
brighten the lives of those around you.
Some had rather guess at much than
take pains to learn little.

THEY FIRE TWICE ON The AMERICAN
SCHOONER CARRIE LANE.
BOARDED BY ARMED MEN.
The Captain Compelled to give an Account
of Himself Before Being Allowed to
Proceed-one of the Crew Mar
rowly Escapes Being Killed
by the Shots-NIew OF
Washington Ofiicials.

BREAKwATER, Del, July 25--Cap-
Carrie l.. Lane, upon his arrival here
last night, had tale to tell about a
thrilling encounter in Cuban waters
with Spanish gunboat. Two shots
were fired ht the Lane by the war yes
sci and one of the s"hooner's crew
narrowly escaped being killed 10y one
OF them. The vessel was made to
heave to and give an account of her
self before being allowed to proceed.
The schooner was off Cape Antonio
and making good time before stiff
breeze, when on the l4th inst. she
sighted steamer flying the Spanish
flag following her. While he was
making up his mind what course to
pursue puff of smoke curled up over
the strangers port bow and a round
shot whistled uncomfortably close TO
the schooner's mainmast and plunged
into the water on the lee quarter.
Captain Quick gave the order TO haul
in sail and bring the vessel TO. While
this was being done one Of the crew
ran out on the bowsp.it. As
he stood there the gun on the
Spanish warship doomed again
and another shot sped on its way to-
ward the American craft, this time
coming so close To her that the sail
man on the bowsprit swears he dis
tinctly felt the wind caused by its
rapid flight. The Lane soon came to
a dead stop, and the gunboat drew up
under her quarter. A boat was low
cred and four Spanish marines under
the command of lieutenant in the
Spanish navy came aboard They
were fully armed and their leader very
civilly lifted his hat and demanded 10
know from what port the Lane had
sailed and whittier she was bound.
Captain Quick gave the required in
formation and no further search was
made and the vessel was permitted u
continue on her course without further
molestatiOn. Captain Quick says he
could not get the name of the gunboat
lie adds that after the first shot was
fired at the Lane he caused the stars
and stripes to be hoisted at the peak
but the only response the Spaniard
made was second shot The gunboai
did not hoist her colors until after the
first shot was fired.
