They Are Usually Ample If They Were

The universities that befall the farm
ers are not due whollysto small crops
and unfavorable seasons. There is
annually large production of wheat
on the farms, and the farmers should
be in better financial circumstances
than any other kind of producers.
The cause Of their distress is that the
profits which should go to them is d.
verified into the pockets of gamblers,
monopolists and spectators who prey
upon the farmers as vultures upon a
plentiful feast. Legitimate profit,
where one gives fair recompcnse for
value received, is result of the I'M
written laws of trade, and has been in
vogue from the first existence of ma
tions, but the deliberate conspiraces
and combinations which are formed to
take from the producers all but bare
subsistence are crimes against civil
cation and travesties upon law. Rail

that the relative brightness of the stars

Culture of Knflir Corn.

Kaffir corn is one of the many varie
ties of sorghum-one of the "non-sac'
charine' or "not-sweet" varieties. It's
culture is similar TO that of sorghum
ground for sirup making. 1t is hot
rather than cold climate crop. 1t
had best not be planted until the soil
is fairly warm and may be safely plant
ed later than corn-say up to July /.
The early growth is comparatively
slow, as with sorghums or broom corn.
Kaflir corn does especially well on
'sod," but 1t will thrive ON almost any
good soil; pretty certainly does better
on high and somewhat thin lands than
does corn. Where grown chiefly for
the grain it may be planted in rows
from three feet to eight inches
apart. The kinds usually grown are
not as tall as corn and may be safely
planted in closer rows. 1t is almost
Invariably drilled in the rows. Some.
times an ordinary corn planter is used;
sometimes lister planter. Many have
used drill for grain, using as many
tubes MS seems advisable. One bushcl
of seed has been used on from five to
Is acres. Where the chief purpose Is
to get crop of fodder rather than
grain, more seed Is used. Some have
practiced sowing with drill using all
the tubes, or sowing broadcast, using
from one-half to one and one-half
bushels of seed per acre. When this
course is pursued the ground should be
in as good condition and as free from
weeds as practicable. 1t is believed
better, in ordinary case, to plant in
rows and give cultivation to the crop
While larger yield of fodder can be
secured when the sowing is too thick
to allow the matuaing of good crop
of grain, a good yield of both grain
and fodder can be secured and the
stalks are never so large as to be OBJ
jectionable.
One very desirable quality Of Kaflir
corn has in an unusual degree is that
of maturing its seed while the leaves
are still green. Because of this there
is little reason for cutting the crop
until the seed Is well matured. Live

Mohair Now Popular.

Medium-priced crepons have beel
sold lately at greatly reduced rates,
for fashion has nominated mohair and
alpaca to reign in the place of those
pretty and stylish fabrics. The new
nlpacas are unattractive as to texture,
looking like canvas, and very coarse
canvas at that, and 1t is therefore easy
to suppose that some mistake was made
in naming 1t. But alpaca 1t Is, all the
same. There are scores of women who
dc net admire alpaca, fine, coarse or
medium. 1t looks poor, no matter how
fashionable, compared with other pop
ular fabrics; it is not at all amcnabe
when folds are under arrangement, and
the shiny, incorporating surface Of
this favored textile is extremely unbe-
coming to all but the very youthful,
and not very complimentary even TO
them. The burden of this small dis.
sertation is comprchended in a few
words: DO not buy alpaca just because
it Is fashionable, unless you select your
dress materials for merely this potent
reason alone.--St. Louis Republic.

THE WAVES WE LIVE IN.
Air Waves That Are Literally "Moun-
tain High"

Air Waves That Are Literally "Moun-
tain High"
It Is rather startling to be told on
high scientific authority that we are
living, most of the time, submerged In
waves to which the greatest waves of
the ocean are mere ripplcs in point of
size. This is a suggestion or discovery
of the late Prof. Helmholtz, of Berlin,
and the enormous waves are waves of
Dir.
When a current of air blows across
water surface, water waves are pro-
duced, and when current of air blows
across n surface of quiet air, or air hav-
ing a different motion from the first
current, then mir waves will be pro-
duced.
These atmospheric waves, Prof.
Helmholtz showed, have all of the phe.
nomena of water waves-troughs,
crests, foaming, breaking and spraying.
But since the qualities of air and water
are so different, the air waves have di-
mansions over $500 times those of the
corresponding water waves.
Thus the great ocean waves of per-
haps 25 feet height would have atmos-
pheric counterparts extending upward
q distance of ten or twelve miles above
the earth's surface. The passage OF
these huge waves would be felt by us,
since they would cause stirring up OF
the air ut the earth's surface somewhat
similar to that produced by the passage
of water waves over shoal places.
The undulating movement of such air
waves would account in part for the in
tcrmittent gusts of wind which we
notice SO frequently in storms.
The presence of these waves is also
indicated by the existence of certain
kinds of regularly formed cloud groups,
in which each cloud marks the crest OF
an air wave.
This meteorological conception of the
great German scientist opens up to OBJ
servers a very interesting field, and the
mere statement of his theory enhances
the interest with which we all gaze into
this thin medium wherein we live and
move and bave our being.-Youth's
