The conservatism of this claim will
be conceded by every one. Nothing
has been claimed in the statement from
the Pacific Coast, though il is believed
that California, for instance, will send
no less than five Republicans to the
next House. Nor are any members
claimed from Nevada, Utah, Washing
ton, Idaho, Wyoming, North and South
Dakota, South Carolina or Virginia,
all of which have Republican represen-
tatives in the present House. 1t is still
early for even an approximately &C

COMPLEXION OF CONGRESS
Republicans Already Forecasting
Good Sized Majority.


WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 2S.-The
first rough estimate of the political
complexion of the next House of Rep
resentatives has been made at the Re
publican Congressional headquarters,
though care is taken that the estimate
shall not be considered as an official
statement issued by the committee.
According to this statement there can
be no reasonable doubt that the next
House will be Republican, though it is
conceded that it is not expected that
the phenomenal and at times unwildy
majority of the present House will be
retained. From the figures now in the
hands of the committee modest ma
jOrity of only seven is claimed, but a
study of the States will show that in
every case there has been claimed only
the lowest possible number of repre-
sentatives. Thus in Indiana, which is
now represented in the House by full
delegation of thirteen Republicans, on
ly nine members are claimed. Similar
~ only twelve Republicans are claimed
for Ohio, though there are at present
nineteen Republicans in the House. a
spirit of extreme conservatism has
been maintained throughout, and the
outlook is accordingly that the first
official statement issued by Chairman
Babcock will be far more liberal in it's
claims. The following condensed state
ment will show where the Republicans
hope to win their representatives:

Man Under Thirty-fve.

Mrs. Lillian Bell, the authoress, as
serts that conversation with q man I'M
der 30 is impossible, because the man
under 80 never converses he only talks.
And your chief accomplishment OF be-
ing a good listener is entirely thrown
away ON him, because he does not IN
the least care whether you listen or not.
Neither is it of any use for you to show
that he has surprised or shocked you.
He cares not for your approval or dis
approval. He is utterly indifferent to
you, not because you do not please him,
but because he has not seen you at all.
He knows You are there in that chair
He bows to you in the street-oh, yes
He knows your name and where you
live. But you are only an entity to him,
not an individual. He cares not for
your likes and dislikes, your cares or
hopes or fears. He only wants you to
be pretty and we'll dressed. Have q
mind if you will. He will not know it.
Have heart and a soul. They do not
concern him. He wants you to be tailor
made. You are girl to him. That's

To Mako a Good Cup Of Tea.

A young man who was being joked
about the appearance of the young lady
he was going to marry said in an apollo
getic way, well, she can make good
cup of tea anyhow" This is qualifica-
tion that not many girls possess. Very
few know how to make a good cup Of
tea. Here are some pointers: Tea should
never touch metal 1t should be kept in
paper, wood. glass or porcelain. To
make it, put small quantity in a
porcelain cup. fill the latter with boil
ing water, cover it with q porcelain
saucer and let it stand three minutes.
Then, If you desire to be an epicure.

en- liquid, throw the rest away. rinse
the cup and begin again. Never use sug.
ar. Do not use milk. Itruins the flavor
of the tea, and the combination injuries

they ought to know their own beverage.
Above all things, do not boil the tea.

Comfort for Crows.

The simplest, cheapest and most effec-
tive remedy know of is to feed them,
says the New England Homestead. As
soon as the corn is planted, scatter
about two quarts of shelled corn thinly
over the whole piece. and this amount
will be sufficient whether it is a half
acre or ten. Every evening repeat the
operation, using one quart. Do not put
up any scarecrows, Irvine or anything
else to notify the crows that you have
corn planted ready for them. The
crows will not dig up the ground or
pull up the younger sprouts If they can
get 1t without this trouble. From a
peck to half bushel will be sufficient
to feed them until the crop is too large
to pull.

for vegetables. IS a change OF pasture
is for sheep. All plants do not take the

Cow Peas Piowed In Fall or Spring.
Experiments conducted at the Ala
bama station show that approximately
six and one-half times more of nitrogen
is found in the vines OF COW peas In
the fall than in those left over to the
following spring. The reason of this Is
that the heterogeneous materials are lost
by decomposition. The materials Of
mineral character will be also lost from
the leaves being blown or washed to
other localities. The North Carolina
station has gotten the best results from
blowing under after the pea vines are
ripe in the fall, following with wheat,
and not allowing them to remain on
the land until the next spring. Cow
peas have somewhat more fertillzing
properties than common clover.

Pears are generally poorer growers
than apples, and many varieties have
to be double-worked in order to get
good tree. This is particularly true OF
some OF the recent introductions OF
winter pears. Barry and B. S. Fox. for
instance. which always have to be top
grated. One OF the best, II not the
best, stocks for top-grafting is the Kief-
fer. but any strong, upright. vigorous
sort will do. The Kieffer is a quick
grower, hardy, and can be bought at a
reasonable price. 1t is as easy to graft
pears as apples, and any one can do It
