Smallest Army Death Rates.

The death rate in the German Arm,
IS the lowest of any in Europe or the
world being only five per thousand
yearly. In England it is eight, in
france ten, in Italy eleven. The
Method used in Germany to secure
this low mortality is entirely hygienic,
and one OF the most important is that

There my 5aViours gone before mo

There IL rest for ths weary,
There Is rest Tor you.
Sing, oh, sing, 70 heirs u glory,

too bitterly over your child that has gone.
There are two kinds OF prayers made Mt q
chIld's sick bed. One prayer the Lord likes;
the other prayer He does not like. When

With him, but Thy will be done" that IL the
Kind Of a prayer tbe Lord loves There Is
another kind Of prayer which / have heard
men make In substance when they say; 10
Lord, this Isn't right; 1t Is hard to take this
child; you have no right to take this
child spare this child; ! can't give him
answers that kind OF prayer some
times. The child lives and lives on and
travels on In paths Of wlckedness to perish.
At tho end Of every prayer for q chIld's life,

People who are susceptible to the
cold should wear loose clothing in cold
weather. Loose garments are always
warmer than tight-ftting ones, not
only because they allow room for cir
culation, but also because they permit
layer Of air between the skin and
the outside cold.
For fish to be palatable it must be
perfectly fresh and thoroughly cooked.
Fish should be cleaned and placed on
the Ice until the time Of cooking. 1t
impairs the flavor to soak them in
water. If the fish is frozen it should
be put in ice water to thaW.
The skins Of fruit should never be
eaten, not because they are not palat-
able or digeStible, or are unhealthful
In themselves, but on account of the
danger arising from microbes, which
may have penetrated into the covering
Of the fruit.

CHILDREN'S RESPONSIBILITIE
1t is surprising what responsibilities
these little creatures have laid upon
them. There are often families of eight
and ten or twelve children in the tene-
ment houses. The mother and father
are away at work all day, and upon
the Oldest child, unable to go out to
work, devolves the duties usually rele-
gated to woman. The other day I
encountered child janitress Of fiat
house, who was only eleven year old.
Her mother was Ill and she kept the
place for her, letting the rooms, scrub
bing the hall, besides looking after the
children. Sometimes I meet q little
father as well as little mother. ''Who
did the washing?" I asked a girl the
other day, whose sore finger and sore
throat I knew prevented her doing 1t.
A line on the fire-escape was hung
thick with small, wet garments, towels
and other articles, and / saw that some
hand had been at work. "He did it."
the child answered, motioning toward
a pale-faced boy Of nine over by the
window; and 1 thought here was a
yeritable Little Father, indeed, wash
ing the baby's clothes and nursing the
sick Little Mother as well.

And Now Kamr Corn.

From the land Of the Kafir and the
Boer comes corn-the only kind pro-
ducible in that sub-arid country
which is being doomed" here as 'just
the thing" for our poor farmers to di-
vert their minds from low prices and
the crime Of '73" with
Prof. Henry, Of the Wisconsin sta
ton, answers, in the Breeders Gazette.
some questions about this new fad In
seeds and crops. He says:
kaftir corn is a sorghum originating
in Africa. The stalk of this plant has
no sugar In 1t, as has sorghum grown
mere, While the seed head Is more prom
inent than our sorghum and the seed
grains considerably larger. The yield
or seed OF Kafflr corn In Kansas, where
1t does extremely we'll, is as high as
forty bushels per acre, each bushel
Weighing about as much as corn. The
seeds are like grains Of sorghum seed,
ground into flour which resembles
buckwheat flour. Wisconsin lies too
far north for profitable growth of
keffir corn, and I advise our CORES
ponGent to pay no further attention to
1t. The plants are very small when
they come up. resembling sorghum
plants, and weeds are much more
troublesome than with Indian corn,
which has stronger and better plants
from the start. The fodder of Indian
corn is also better than the fodder Of
Kaffir corn.
Farmers may we'll be suspicious of
all agricultural plants so highly praised
by many agricultural papers which are
very careless about what they say in
these matters. The only plant Of any
real agricultural value which has come
out recently Is the rape plant, which
is splendid forage plant for sheep.
Last year our people were humbugged
by the sacaline plant, which sold for
twenty-five cents apiece and for which
the widest claims were made. This
severely alone, yet no doubt more
money was spent for this one plant by
foolish, gullible people than it costs to
maintain a state experiment station,
and the money would have been saved
If people had written to their stations
to learn the facts.
We in Wisconsin can grow without
any trouble the two grandest agricul-
tural plants in the world-Indian corn
and red clover. Corn is practically a
sure crop and red clover will never
fail If the seed is sown by itself instead
Of being sown along with grain crop,
the way now commonly practiced I
urge our farmers to stand by these
two plants and those others commonly
grown on their farms, only adopting
new ones when they have undergone
trials at our experiment stations. AS
stated above the rape plant is one
which has done we'll with us and the
seed can be had at no more cost than
turnip seed. Kaffir corn has been tried
by us and never found satisfactory.
