Threshinx Damp Grain.

It is quite likely that much grain will
be threshed while damp this year, as
wet weather in harvest time caused 1t
to be got in before fully dry. In most
cases the grain will take less harm in
the bundle than out of 1t. SO long as
grain was threshed by hand there was
no danger of the work being done
while either straw or grain were damp.
1t made the work too hard, and the
threshlng was always reserved for cold
weather after frost had thoroughly
dried ou- both straw and grain. When
horsepower threshing machines came
into use there was nearly as much care
in having the grain in good condition
for threshing. We have seen the
thresher stalled when the grain came
too fast or too damp. In the large
steam threshers the bundles go through
all right, but If damp more or less of
the grain goes into the stack. The evil
of threshing damp grain is not confined
to the loss by waste. What is put in
the granary Is much more likely to
heat and become musty than it is If the
grain has been thoroughly dried in the
straw.-American Cultivator.

STRICKEN WITH REMoRsE.
An Alleged Russian Count Rights an
Old Wrong,

New York, Aug. 90 Pauline Brad
shaw, a beautiful actress, was married
In Chicago four years ago to Count
Vladimir Rostowski, an alleged Rus
sian nobleman, after courtship of two
hours.
II am negotiating for the establish
ment Of great shipyard here, said the
count to Pauline the morning after the
marriage II shall have to see the
mayor. You must not be inpatient if
] chance 10 remains away trfie long.
When Pauline opened the casket
where she usually kept her diamonds
the contents were gone. SO were sew
earl hundred dollars in cash which the
same box had contained. Count Vladi-
mir Rostowski never Standardization
did the valuables.
Several weeks ago Pauline came to
New York, and while waiting for
something to turn up che received
letter which had come from Russia.
1t had gone the round Of all the places
at which Pauline had lived, and had
taken FIVE months to do so. The let
ter was from Russian notary, who
informed Miss Pauline Bradshaw that
there was a fortune of so, 900 roubles
waiting for her in St. Petersburg.
A man named Paul Sadowski had,
according to the notary, bequesthed
her that amount Sadowski had
amassed great fortune in South Afri-
ca. and had returned last year to his
native country. For awhile he had
led a life of mad gaiety, making il
difficult for even the richest of the
young noblemen who took him into
their reyels to keep pace with him.
Last january all this changed. Sad
owski began frequenting the churches.
In March he fell sick and three days
later was dead. Among his effects was
a codicil to his will bequeathing 30, 900
roubles to Miss Pauline Bradshaw, Of
Chicago. in consideration of great
wrong he had once done her, and for
which he begged her forgiveness.

The growing crops are all doing as well as
