ELECTRIC ~SOIL-TESTER,
Clever Invention for Determining the
Amount of Moisture.

Clever Invention for Determining the
Amount of Moisture.
The well-known fact that damp
earth is a better conductor of cleo
t%ricity than dry earth is the basis of an
apparatus invented by Prof. Milton
Whitney, chief of the division of soils
in the agricultural department, which
he thinks will be Il valuable aid in pro-
ducing the best results from the cult
walton Of soil. The plates. construct
ed of the material which forms the EAR
bon points in arc lights, are sunk in the
ground at any desired depth. \ ur-
rent of electricity is then passed from
one to the other. and an instrument
measures in OhmS the resistance which
the soil between the plates makes to
the passage of the current. \ table
prepared from the results of many eX-
perimcnts shows at a glance the per-
centagc of moisture in the soil.
The apparatus will be especially val
liable in dollhouse culture, in Prof.
Whitney's opinion, for in hat the ron
ditions are best for regulating the
proportion of moisture. but the amount
of moisture in the fields can be regu-
lated to n greater degree by cultiva-
ton. This is particularly SO in Sec
tions of the country where irrigation
is practiced. BY the use Of this appar-
atus, which is simple and compar-
atively inexpensive, the farmer can ac-
curately determine what crop is best
adapted to the soil of each field, and
thus make his labor and investment
count for the most in results. From a
series of experiments conducted last
summer Prof. Whitney has practically
demonstrated that when pasture and
shows less than one-third per cent. of
moisture it has reached the danger
line, and Il severe drought is immi-
nent,

this creature intends TO make a meal
he simply surrounds his prey and waits
until it is digested.
The enamel of the teeth is composed
of 95 per cent. of calcarious matter, a

The squirrel is provided with a pouch
on each side of his mouth in which

This Lucrative Business.
\ good many people are prejudiced
against ducks, because of the notion
that they make mud and are noisy. and
+ not as profitable as chickens. This
is a great mistake, for ducks can be
kept as easily and in as cleanly 4 man
rel as any other fowls, if they are fur
nIshed with proper quarters.
Pekin or Rouen ducks do not need
water, except a plentiful supply 10
drink, and this can be furnished IN such
Il way as to keep them from getting into
it, as they surely will if they can. We
always give our ducks a tub to battle in,
and when they have had their bath
empty the tub for hat day.
Ducks produce as many eggs as do
hens, and in most of places their eggs
sell for two cents a dozen more than
hens eggs, because of their greater
size. If they have been well kept
through the winter. they will begin to
lay about the middle of February, and
continue until they have produced
about Is dozen, when the old ones NAV
tie sold, leaving the spring hatch for
EeXt seasons work.
Ducks will thrive On the coarsest
kind of food, and the young are very
hardy, as they are never bothered with
lice or diseases of the kind that often
attack young chickens. a duck once
Matched IS liable to live to maturity on
food that a chic k would die on in Il
week.
When sold ducks always sell for more
10y the pound than chickens do, and
there is no reason to believe that Il
pound of duck costs more than a pound
of chicken.

The latest umbrella. though it was
designed exclusively for the young
man of the period, has been adopted
by his tailor-made sister. 1t is Il silk
umbrella tightly rolled, over which a
dark leather cover is fastened. When
the sun shines and the cover is on it
has the exact appearance of a cane.
but when a storm comes up suddenly
the cover may be taken off and the UNI
brella brought into use. In dark
brown silk, with a leather cover to
match the silk and n stylish wood
handle, the umbrella costs but five dol
lars. The price varies from this up ac-
cording to the quality of the silk and
the style of the handle. That the UNI
brella strikingly resembles a can APP

the tailor-made girl. The fact is it
seems to please her better than any
umbrella of her own. Chicago Chron-

4 Case That Puzzled the Doctors.
Mrs ID. Wood Dangerously Ill -Four
Times a Yesr-Her Case Seemed
Hopeless.
From the Times, Kansas City. Mo.

From the Times, Kansas City. No.
! Mrs. ID. Wood, who resides at 7O3 Della
ware St., Kansas City, Mo-. suffered for
nearly eight years and was attacked at in
tervals with 4 sickness. the cause of which
she could not explain, but which brought
her nearer deaths door with each return.
Her husband was continually in a state of
nervous worry about her condition and
about the numerous doctor bills TO be paid.
Blu one day a great change came. Mrs.
w God Is now strong and vigorous, and she
goes about her household duties with a
cheerfulueSs and enjoyment that she never
knew before. She has no more sick spells,
and her husband is now the happiest man
in Kansas City.
What caused this change! Listen to what
Mr.. u. Wood, the husband, told a reporter
of the Times Yesterday:
For eight years my wife suffered from
general debility. She never felt well. At
least four times every year she would have
fearful sick spells and she would be bed
ridden for two or three weeks at a time.
These sick spells were often dangerous, and
l was afraid that each one would be her
last The doctors did not seem TO UNDER
stand her case. 1nnumerable physicians
treated her, but without the slightest effect.
Besides a feeling of general debility. she
would often experience agOniZing pains in
her chest and in the region of her heart.
This is what seemed to puZZlethe doctors,
and this is what worried me. Her case
seemed hopeless, until at length Il friend
advised her to use DR., Williams Pink Pills.
From the time that the first dose was
taken she began to improve. The dose was
repeated and today she is entirely well. |
believe that DIR. Williams Pink Pills are
one of the most wonderful discoveries of
the age, and | n recommend them too
highly after the miraculous cure which they
effected for my wife. l am always glad to
tell others, who are suffering as she suf-
fered, that in Pink Pills they will surely
find relief"

Grasses In the South.

One good result of the enforced
economy among southern planters is
the matter of grasses. For a long time
the south was regarded as unfit for
grass production, although men here
and there demonstrated its faIsity. Mr..
Hilyard, a northern man. but for many
years a resident of the south, proved by
actual and frequent experiments not
only was this section a great grass
country, but perhaps the greatest in
the world. He showed that the south.
in her more favored regions, surpassed
the north in cultivation of the grasses
and forage crops grown there, and that
she had numerous plants of that kind
which the north could not successfully
produce. 1t has been proven by an
alysis, by facts and figures, that our
bermuda grass is far more nutritious
than the famous timothy.-Augusta

Hints About Marketing Honey.

There are a few points well worth
knowing in the marketing of honey.
The first thing necessary is to see hat
the honey is carefully assorted. Then
it should be thoroughly cleaned and
put into neat, white crates. Another
very important thing is, the crates
should be the same thing all through;
that is, the honey should be just what
it appears to be IN the face of it. There
is Il great deal of talk nowadays about
low prices and slow sales, but the man
who has an honest, clean, first-class
article of any kind need not go beg
ging for customers, even in these hard
times.-Farm and Home.
Mucn is written about warming
water for COWS. Seldom is anything
said about not giving horses water that

HOUSEHOLD SUGGESTIONS,

To decorate n CRATE that is not re-
quired for use, place in it some small
pots containing ferns. Collect small fir
cones, yarnish them and throw around
in the CRATES so the pots shall be hidden.
If you possess a coy corner with a
shelf at the top have 4 zinc trough made
to fit it and fill this with some hardy
foliage and flower plants. They will
last Il long time and add greatly to the
beauty of the room.
The latest card cases and pocket
books are made from a leather that is
called elephants hide. 1t has rather
Il rough surface and is of n light tan
color. They are mounted at the cor
ners in dull gold, or have n plain gold
bard around them, headed by n narrow
beading.
1t is not necessary to have fresh and
green things for all salads. The cold
cooked vegetables may be utilized
asparagus tops, peas, beans, cold pota-
toes and bcets, cut in cubes, or any of
them, mixed together with a few capcrs
and sliced olives. The dish, for n
salad should be rubbed inside with q
raw onion.
Furs will look much improved if they
are cleaned with bran heated in the
oven. Rub the hot bran well into the
fur with Il piece of flannel, then shake
the fur to remove all particles, and
brush thoroughly. Fur collars that
lave become soiled from rubbing
against the hair may be made to look

WOMEN

Miss Helen VI. Winslow, of Boston,
was the guest of honor at the Profess

1t was after ex-Eapress Eugene of
France hat Princess Beatrice's little
daughter was named. The unfortunate
empress holds the children of this prin-

majesty. She probably remembers that
had her son been spared to her Prin-
