DIR. TaImage as an Explorer.

Nearly two years ago Rev. DR.. Tai
mage, the celebrated preacher and
lecturer, started on his now famous
tour of the world, for the purpose, as
he declared at the time, of studying
all the religious beliefs of the differ
ent races of mankind, and if he could
find better one than Christianity,
embracing it. This was a startling
declaration to begin with, and his
discovery and revelations appear to
be none the less startling. In fact the
doctor has added to his reputation as
the greatest living orator, that of a
famous explorer as well. His discov-
cries and adventures are fully as in
teresting as those of Stanley or Liv-
ingstone, and equally as valuable,
because they relate to different races
of people and other parts of the
world, and throw a wonderful light
upon the most important subjects
that come within the range of mans
investigation.
His route led him first across the
continent from New York to San
Francisco, thence to Samoa and the
Sandwich Islands, the islands of the
Pacific, Australia. Borneo, India with
all its wonders and mysteries, Egypt
and up the Nile to the borders of
ancient Ethiopia, Syria, Palestine,
over st. Paul's Mediterranean Sea
voyage, Greece, Italy, Spain, Europe,
the British Isles, Russia. and across
the Atlantic to the place Of starting.
Throughout this tremendous journey
he was accompanied by his secretary
and we'll supplied with the most ap-
proved Photographic apparatus, by
which means he was enabled to des-
cribe and photograph the people,
scenery, historical places, and other
subjects of universal interest at the
time and as he saw them. His new
book, giving an account of his travels
adventures, Investigations and dis
coveries has just been published IN
der the appropriate title of "1he
Earth Girdled,n and the author de-
clares, in an autograph letter to his
publisher, that he considers it the
mos. vigorous work of his life. 1t is
illustrated with,over 400 Photographic
views, the most curious and wonder
full, doubtless, that ever appeared in
book. Eight of these photographs
have been reproduced in natural col
ors. which add greatly to their inter-
est and beauty.
"The Earth GirdLed" will be circu-
lated exclusively by means of can
vassers, and it certainly affords an
extraordinary opportunity to all who
desire paying employment. See pub
lisher's announcement in another col
umn of this paper.

FORTY BUSHELS EXTRA FROM SUB
SOILISG

Kansas Farmer
The advantages of subsoiling form
an attractive theme for those who
have used the up-to-date subsoil
plows. When Clarence J. Norton, of
Morantown wrote TO the Kansas Far
mer that the subsoiler, while turning
no furrow, nevertheless, where run in
the bottom of the ordinary pillow fur
row, so loOsened the subsoil that the
furrow was filled up level full, good
deal of incredulity was expressed by
those who have not seen it done. The
editor of the Kansas Farmer is now
ready to add his testimony. In pre-
pairing land in Barton county for
fruit trees, the Perine subsoiler was
run about eight inches deep in the
bottom of the turning-plow furrOw,
and il filled the furrow full of finely
pulverized soil. If the subsoiling is
done when the ground is dry it is not
necessary to subsoil more than every
second furrow, and once in three fur
rows, will leave scarcely any unbrok-
en- subsoil. The expense of subsoiling
need not, therefore be great. Anyone
who has never examined SUBSIDIZED
land will be surprised at the amount
of moisture it acc Imulates as compar-
ed with unsu bsoiled land beside it.
Mr.. l.. Short, of Hamilton, Green
wood county, makes an interesting
report of his experience with subsoil-
ing last season. He purchased Per-
inc subsoiler in May. He ran the
subsoiler in the lister burrows; then
split the middles with the lister, fol-
lowed by the subsOiler, running the
lister five inches and the subsoiler Is
inches deep. This land was planted
to corn with a creck-row planter
about the middle of May. Mr.. Shorts
corn ripened with that of his neigh
bors who planted six weeks earlier,
and yielded IS bushels per acre,
against 35 bushels per acre on the
neighbors similar farm. The extra
expense of subsoiling was, say g per
acre; the extra yield, forty bushels
per acre, cost of added yield, 3 cents
per bushel. Cheap corn! This was
on bottom land. On sixty acres of
upland the subsOiler followed the
lister and corn was planted, finishing
June 5. The average yield from this
was forty-five bushels per acre. The
subsoiler burrows were forty-two
inches apart on the upland and
twenty inches apart on the bot
tom land. On good slope land - not
SUBSIDIZED planted April 10. the
yield was thirty bushels per acre.
One hundred acres was SUBSIDIZED by
three horses, weighing 1850 10 1,l5O
each. Experiences differ greatly as
to the power required for subsoiling.
In our experience four good horses
had enough to do. In some parts of
the State six horses are used.

TANNING WILD HORSES,
Prof Gleason Gave q Wonderful Exhibit
ton at the Armory.

Professor Oscar Gleason gave q wonderful ex-
hibition of horse training before large audi
ence at the Third Regiment srmory last night
Three vicious animals, whose surly DISPOSE
tons had heretofore proved a source o. annoy
snce to themselves and terror to their owners
were turned out as gentle as lambs and as kind
as kittens.
The first was grey horse belonging to the
Palace livery stable. which had never been
driven before. When the Professor had gotten
through with him he would trot like an old
timer IN either single or double harness. Mr.
JACKSON, 1872 East Eighteenth street owns
have labored with in vain he has run away
on every possible occasion and broken several
buggies all TO pieces. Mr. Gleason guarantees
that he will not run away again.
The last subject operated on by Mr.. Gleason
last night was q lAIge. rakish locking black
horse, which on account of his unamiable tenn
per has been changing owners almost from the
time he was able 10 walk The professor put
pans onto mis- back strap, which were kept in q
continual rattle with long pole.
He even exploded frecrackers under the
hose aud droye him around the ring with q
loose rein, guiding him with his voice. In
fact all three OF these lncorrigioles came out of
the severe ordeal with all their sins washed
away and will, the professor assures their
owners, never give them another days trouble.
