Du Maurier and Clara Moschele

In 1858 my father came on a visit
to Antwerp with my mother and my
youngest sister, Clara. Wherever my
father took up his abode. even tenn
porarily, a grand piano in the natural
course of events would gravitate to-
ward him and select circle of art low
ers would soon be grouped around it.
Among the friends in the Antwerp
circle were Van Lerius, Tadema, Baron
Legs, Huysmans and Bource Ny sis
ter'at that time was bright and hap
py creature, not long out Of her teens,
full of hopes, alas! never to be real
lied and of talents never to be ma
tured. The large dark eyes-they
seemed the gift of her godmother, the
the famous Malibran-reflected the ar
lists soul and grand soprano voice
spoke it's wonderful language. Du
Maurier and she were soon on a broth
or and sisterly footing, and they ever
remained so.-Felix Moscheles in Cen

Potato Experiments in missouri.

Potato Experiments In Missouri
The Missouri station publishes tina
result of its potato experiments, and
from them draws the following con-
clusions:
l. Missouri soils are we'll adapted
to profitable potato growing.
2. Drought and extremely hot sea-
sons, whenever expected, demand the
planting of only early varieties.
8. A mean temperature from AprfI
to September-of between 60 and rs
degrees F.. the maximum not reach
Ing higher than IS degrees F., the min
imum not lower than 80 degrees F..
with a monthly rainfall. evenly dis
tributed, of about inches in spring,
gradually decreasing to 21s inches in
fall-presents the best climatic condi-
ton for sure and profitable potato
harvest.
4. The crop yields are increased
nearly proportionately to the amount
of chemical fertilizer used, up to
about 900 pounds of sulphate of pot
ash and superphosphate each per acre
s. This amount of fertilizer will cost
between $50 to $35, and increase the
crop 100 to $50 bushels per acre.
6. The harvests in the variety tests
for 1895 were obtained from 800
pounds of superphospnate, costing
about So per acre. and amply paid Tor
the outlay.
z. The harvest depends:
a. Upon the quality and texture
of the soil and this, in large meas
ure, upon the character of the sea-
son; and
b. Upon the fertility of the SOIL.
8. 1t is proportionate under favor
able conditions to the number of Wig
orous plants and not to the mode OF
planting.
9. Planting by eyes, quarters OK
wholes, by stem or by seed, influences
but slightly the yield per acre; under
the diverse and not to be foreseen con-
ditions of soil and climate for our state
the most generally suitable planting 10
probably by quarters.
10. Keeping the growing crop FREQ
from weeds, blight, and potato bugs.
and the soil loose, are, of course, pre-
requisites for good harvest.
II. The amount of small, l. e., I'M
perchantable potatoes in the crop de-
ponds not upon the mode of planting
and subsequent cultivation, but upon
the fertility of the soil, the favorable
ness of the season, the vigor of the
plants and the nature of the variety
IL. When seed potatoes are high in
price it is advisable to consider the
output per acre, as given in table VI
viz:
1913 blu. in Experiment / yielding
249.7 blu. in crop.
As blu. in Experiment yielding
219.7 blu. In crop.
90 blu. in Experiment 16 yielding
250.2 blu. in crop.
90 blu. in Experiment 10 yielding
1928 blu. in crop.
And, bearing in mind the cost of tho
fertilizer in the two last experiments,
of, respectively, $1,000 and $25 per
acre, make solution of the mode OF
planting most suitable to the condi-
lions.

The salesman retired behind a pile
of sheltering machines and had it out
with himself When he emerged he
led two wheels and talked black in the
face, explaining their excellencies and
differences.
She had sat looking politely at him
all this time, and when he stopped to
recover breath she smiled courteously.

"It seems to be fad of the manufac-

"And ] suppose it gives some one

put in charitably.
The salesman grew desperate and
fingered his pencil. Which one shall

minder.
She was plunged in thought. Il
had no idea they painted them in so
many different colors," she said, half
to herself "I'll have to think 1t over.
You see, I haven't decided what I'll
get for a bicycle suit, and, of course
the wheel must match 1t. I'll let you

Growing Mustard.

The mustard family includes NOT
only that what we know as mustard.
but cabbage, turnip, radish, horse-rad-
ish, water-cress, and even the nastur-
tium. For field cultivation the white
and black or brown varieties of mus
tGrd are used. The seed of the white
mustard is nearly white, and of the
black mustard the seed is brown or
nearly black. The mustard of COM
MERGE consists of seeds of both of these
varieties ground together. The black
mustard seed is the strongest. Mus
tard is grown both as food for cattle
and sheep, and for turning under In
the green state. Some object to it for
the reason that once on a land it In
hard to eradicate, but the best way OF
getting rid of 1t is to allow it to come
to the poisoning stage and then turn
1t under.
For growing mustard soft, loamy
soil Is preferred. The seed may he
sown broadcast at the rate of one peck
to the acre, or in drills at the rate or
six quarts to the acre. The latter 10
preferred when the seed is to be used
for commerce, as the weeds can thus
be kept out, and the mustard seed will
be pure when threshed. Such drills
are usually put in about two feet
apart, this giving room for cultiva-
ton. The harvesting begins when the
pods turn brown or yellow. The crop
Is cut with reaper or scythe. If the
pods are yet in that state where they
need to be dried, the mustard is piled
up in the open field for day or twA.
But often the pods are so dry that they
readily break open and spill the ripe
seed. In that case they are hauled az
once to the barn, cloth being put in
the bottom of the wagon to prevent
any of the seed from being lost, which
Is very likely to be the case. The
greatest danger in curing is the wet
weather, which often Injuries the crop
to the extent of rendering 1t unfit for
market.
