In 1868, a Princess Caroline of Rcuss

Bismarck could forgive, but he wish
I'd to do 1t after proper solicitation. At
the beginning of the Danish war, Field
Marshal Wrangel, who was at the
head Of the Prussian troops, was ex-
ceedingly annoyed, at one point, to be
telegraphed not to advance further,
and he returned message telling King
william that "These diplOmatists who
spoil the most successful operations
deserve the gallows."
After that, Bismarck ignored him
completely, and one day they met Mt
the kings table, where 1t was especial
ly awkward to preserve GOODNESS.
Wrangel called everybody Du, and
presently no turned to Bismarck, who
was seated next him, and said. my

THE SMILE ON OUR eAsvs FACE.

Gods angel was hidden to make her fair,

He took of the ,nidnoon's cloudless skies
And fashioned therefrom her two blue eyea.
He washed her white with the sinless SHOWS
And painted Nor cheeks with the dawns faint
rose.
He dimpled her tiny hands and feet,
He made her sunny and soft and sweet,
He nodded hor round white limbs with art,
He got her from heaven a pure child heart;
Then he kissed her lips and her brow and eyes
And brought her. sleeping, from paradise.
Such virtue lies in those kisses three
That, how 80 weary at heart are we,
Tho look and the smile on our baby's face
Bring rest and comfort and endless grace.

of about 45 degrees, in post or tree,
place the stalks on the laths, at distance
of inches apart pass the spear through
the stalk far enough from the end to
prevent splitting out. AS each lath is
filed remove the spear and place the
laths on the lower tier of the barn, about
6 or inches apart. The next day it
can be raised on the higher tiers to make
room for the freshly gathered. If the
field is some distance from the barn the
spearing may be done near the field,
and tobacco brought IN on rack, in
stead of a regular wagon body. Primed
leaves can be hung en- stout wires,
sharpened at the end to pass easily
through the stem of the leaf, or the
laths may be used with a cord and
needle to string on, the lath serving only
as support. The length of lath given
will hold about 80 leaves, distance of
less than an inch apart between the
stems; put the leaves back to back.
During the early stage Of curing and
until the tobacco begins to yellow, keep
barn ventilators closed during the day,
and open at night during bright clear
weather. After the following process
has fully set in reverse this order, open
in the day and close at night. When to-
bacco is sufficiently cured to take down
and bulk, it may be again necessary to
close during the day and open at night,
so as TO keep it soft and pl1able for hand
ling. When the stem is fully cured, the
tobacco should be taken down and put
into hands or bundles, for "Cuba" to-
bacco, from Is to 20 leaves, and "Suma
tra'', % to 30 leaves to the bundle, being
careful not to mix the two varieties IN
the bundle. Of course for cut tobacco,
where leaves have been cured on the
stalk they must be stripped off before
they can be put in the bundle. AS soon
as tied into hands bulk it down. Do
this by tapping the leaves, leaving the
stem ends outward; keep the bulk COW
cred with blankets or burlap to prevent
drying out. While making the bundles
a partial selection of two or three grades
may be made. Should there be long
rainy season during the curing period,
the barn must be kept closed; if signs of
mold appear on the leaf near the stem,
open the space between the laths on the
tier poles; little fire may be necessary
at this time for drying out the humid.
ity. Charcoal heaters made of sheet
iron are the best to use fer this purpose,
but small fires made from dry sap pine
or some other wood that will not impart
it's odor to the tobacco will do. All that
can be said in connection with barn
handling must be taken as general adj
vice, subject to change under certain
circumstances or conditions. So use
your best judgment coupled with good
common sense, bearing in mind these
facts. The early or following process
must not be too rapid. In more ad-
vanced curing give ventilation in good
weather. When cured give humidity
sufficient to soften.

1t is difficult question to decide, un-
der the variable conditions surrounding
q tobacco crop, the best time to top the
plants. Great care should be exercised
in this matter, for if topped too soon
the leaves will grow too thick and leath-
erly, unfit for wrappers. So let the
growing condition of the crops be your
guide. When plants are not growing
vigorously, showing signs Of exhausted
soil, or fertilizer, top at once, or as soon
as the button appears. On the contrary,
when they are growing we'll, especially
when there is tendency to speck, do
not top until just before blooming, and
then only break off the bud. This lat
ter advice applies more particularly to
the 'Sumatra" variety. All stalks will
not do to top at the same time. Neither
will all be ready to harvest at once.
Suckers will appear sometimes before
topping; they must be broken off when
found. SCUBA" plants throw out more
suckers than "Sumatra". When bud
worms have injured a plant seriously,
cut it down and permit sucker to grow
in its stead.
HARVESTING.
When yellow blotches or spots appear
ripe and ready to harvest. With
Scuba" tobacco l am aware that the
usual plan is to cut the entire stalk, but
to my mind it has been fully demon
strated that much green tobacco is
taken into barns by this process l
therefore advise printing off as they
ripen, a sufficient number Of leaves
from the bottom, so as to allow at least
two thirds of the entire stalk to ripen
before cutting, then cut the stalk down
with strong sharp knife to avoid split
ting. Be careful not to cut while there
is due or rain drops on the leaves, as
water will produce black spots. ''Su-
matra" tobacco must be harvested en-
tirelv by printing or stripping process.
Take off the leaves as they ripen, from
bottom to top. Be careful not to allow
tobacco to remain in the sun long after
it IS gathered, for sunburn will occur in
very short time. Do not lay tobacco
ON the ground without some protection
from sand and dirt. Leaves may be
gathered in long fiat basket, if care is
taken in passing through the field. A
good plan is to lay the leaves on the arm
as gathered, depositing from time to
in some shady place. Great care must
be taken to avoid bruising the tobacco,
bearing in mind that the most perfect
leaves make the most desirable wrap
pers. If the barn is some distance from
the field, keep the tobacco covered while
in transit.
BARN HANDLING.
First Of all, have clean boards to place
the tobacco on as received in the barn,
Don't place the piles too thick as there
is danger of heating if allowed to re-
main too long before handling. For
hanging cut tobacco use laths about 4
feet 4 inches long and 14xS inches thick,
slightly sharpened at each end, then,
with the assistance of an iron spear on
one end of the lath, and the end other
