How Hatred of Americans Is shown
in Madrid.
A most interesting article is written
by an American woman from Madrid.
which shows how America, or "los
Estados Unidos," and her people are re-
Earded in that part Of the world. While
the Spanish masses view the Cuban war
with disfavor, yet their hatred Of ''los
Yankees" is reported as ineXpressiblc
en- the ground that the latter are til"
occasion of that war and the cause OF
its continuance, through their SYM
Eathy and direct and indirect aid. The
writer tells also of something hich,
while wonderful revelation OF the
state of mind prevailing throughout
the Spanish portion of the Celtibcri;n
peninsula, is amusing because Of the
pathological interest that is bound to
attach to it.
The Spaniards have taken to callnc
their hogs yankees" but they have
also added two other words which must
prove peculiarly dissonant to their
sonorous tongue. Two little incidents
bring this matter out. One of the
of the vilest, shabbiest ours that ever
barked, and they would have suffered
death long ago but for the very Pc
culiar virtue that is lodged in then,
names. He calls them Morgan" and
Sherman" and he finds relief in SO
calling and cursing them. Then, in {,
village squabble between two urchins.
'IIe called me Sherman" said one, in
fearful rage. But he said | was &
Morgan" was the sullen retort of the
other. This Cuban war is represented
as terrible burden upon the common
people of Spain, but it is war, never
theless, of the aristocracy, in which
they must succeed, for if they do not il
! means also their own downfall and tha
overthrow of the government, with
quite likely a Spanish republic to take
its place.-N. y. Independent.
Training Husbands After Marriage.
1t really is asking too much of n
woman to expect her to bring up hus-
band, and her children, too. She vainly
imagines when she marries this piece
of perfection, with whom she is so
blindly in love, that he is already
trained, or rather, that he is the one
human being in the world who has been
perfect from infancy, and who never
needed training. She knows that
mothers have to put in 90 years of close
study and hard work before they can
turn out man or woman who won't
be u social pest. She never dreams Of
the curious fact that mothers always
train their daughters to make GOOD
wives, yet never think Of training q
boy to make a good husband.-Wom

A DANGEROUS PRACTICE. z
Reports of too Frequent and Dangerous Shooting in the Southeaster Tn
 Part of the City. TE


 The attention of the State Herald has been called to the too frequent indulgence in chs use of firearms by careless and jn- different persons in the neighbonb oode of Avenue G and Twenty-eighth street with a request that the attention of the pro- per authorities be called 10 same. E. J.p McCrossin, Esq, is one of the complain ants and reports tha. on Wednesday, night some persons fired several shots in the neighborhood of his residence, one of which pass;d through window and directly across a bed in which were sleep- ing two of his children. The deadly bull let buried Itself in the wall and it's loca- tion indicafed that had the bukist. been fired eighteen inches lower one or pos sibly both of the children might s.have been fatally injured.
 Ths citizens of thsls neighborhood feel ing that the chief olf police chairman of the police commission and an officer live. in tha,. immediate vicinity, think they, too, should have some concern as to the dangerous practice. ssSs The firing of firearms in the city limits Is a misdemeanor and in such cases as above cited should bs worthy of a much graver charge.

Serious Results Sometimes Follow Its
 Excessive Use.
 Common soda is all right in it's place, and indispensable in the kitchen and for cooking and washing purposes, butssit- was nevsr intended for a medicine, and people who use it as such will some day regret it. S
 We refer to the common use of soda to relieve heartburn or sour stomach, hab- 1t which thousands of pecp'a practice al- most daily, and one which is fraught with danger; moreover the soda only gives temporary relief. and in the end the stomach trouble gets worse and worse v g. The soda acts as a mechanical irritant to the walls of the stomach and bowels and cases are on record where it accunfli. lated in the intestines, causing death by inflammation or perltonitis. zn
 Dr. Harlandson recommends as the safest and sursst cure for sour stomach (acid dyspepsia) an excellent prepara- tion sold by druggists under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. These tab lets are large 20 grains lozenges very pleasant to taste and contain the ma tural acids, peptones and digestive eleme nts essential to good digestion and when taken after meals they digest the fNrd perfectly and promptly before it has time to ferment, sour and poison the blood and nervous system. q.
 Dr. Wuerth states that he invariably uses Stua-t's Dyspepsia Tablets in all cases of stomach heterogeneous and finds them a certain cure net only for stom-i ach, but by promptly dsgesting the food, they create healthy appetite, increase flesh and strengthen the action of the heart and liver. They are not a cathar- tic, but intended ony for stomach dis eases and weaknesses and will be found reliable in any stomach trouble except cancer of the stomach.

WITH THE BUSY BEES.

A worker grub can be transformed in
to a queen when it is five or six days
old.
In breeding queens artificially it is
important to get good cells for brood of
the right age.
In each family of bees there are three
distinct kinds, which differ in form,
color, structure, size, habits and func-
ton.
With no drone cells the queen will
sometimes lay drone eggs in worker
cells, in which drones will then be
reared.
The, function of the queen is simply
to lay eggs and thus keep the colony
populous. A good queen IN good condi-
ton will lay 1000 or 5000 eggs in a
day.
The activity of queens is governed
largely by the activity of the workers.
While the workers are storing honey
she will lay sparingly. She is stimulate
ed to lay when all is life and activity
in the hive.-St: Louis Republic.

ABOUT COMB BUILDING.

1t Does Not Pay to Let Bees Make
Their Own Foundation.
The man who allows his bees to build
their own foundation is merely wasting
the time of the bees. Sometimes it
seems like spending a great deal of
money that might be saved to buy
foundation, but it is really economical
to do so. Honey comb is made OF
practically pure wax, and this is, in
TACT, the fat of the bees. It is under the
scales of the abdomen and may be seen
there if the bee is put under glass of
very ordinary magnifying power. This
wax is pulled from its place by the claws
of the bees and worked into comb, and
this operation takes time that is lost
when the colony might be storing nectar
if the foundation has been furnished.
No man has been able to make founda-
ton that is as soft and pliable as the
comb the bees make, but a pretty fair
imitation is made that answers all prac-
teal purposes.
When honey comb is first made it is,
as every one knows, sweet and perfectly
palatable, but as soon as brood begins to
be grown in it, each embryo weaves q
thin cocoon that is never removed, and
the cell becomes smaller and the comb
darker with each succeeding brood
hatched in it. This makes the bees
grow smaller and smaller, and such
comb should be cut out and melted down
for sale before it gets too dark to find
a place to keep them.
Where sections are used the comb is,
of course, removed ofteL and sold, and
here is where the most profitable use of
foundation comes in.-Journal of Agri-
cnltnre

THE FARMING WORLD.
PLANTING THE CORN.

Have the Soil Mellow and Fine and
Stirred Deep.
IF good stand of corn is secured,
care must be taken first to have good
seed and then to plant under such con-
ditions as will bring a quick germina-
ton of the seed and thrifty start to
grow. Plants, like animals, are easily
stunted when young, and no after treat
ment will wholly overcome the effects
Of stunning.
While it is best to plant reasonably
early, it is of no advantage to plant
when the soil is wet or cold, or before
it has been carefully prepared. Better
delay the planting rather than to plant
under unfavorable conditions. Corn
is crop that should terminate in IL
short time after the seed is planted,
and the plants should make a steady
growth to maturity.
Plow deep and thorough. If the
ground has been p]owed during the
fall or winter go over it with a disk
or spadlng harrow. It is an item to
have the soil mellow and fine and stirred
reasonably deep.
blowing or stirring of the soil before
planting should be the rule, with shall
low, thorough cultivation afterwards.
It is only occasionally that it will be
best to pillow or cultivate deep after the
plants are up. Generally thorough stir
ring of the soil keeping down the weeds,
and the soil fine and mellow, will give
better results than to pillow or Guilt
vate deep.
Rather more and better corn can be
grown by planting in drills than in
hills, but it is nearly always done at
an increased cost. In nearly all cases
1t will cost more to give clean cultiva-
ton with drill-planting than with hill.
But where the land is free from weeds,
so that the cost of cultivating is not
increased too much, drill planting will
give the best growth and yield.
But in an average soil, it is usually
enough apart each way, so that cultiva-
ton can be given both ways. One ad-
vantage in using only good seed and
planting under the most favorable con-
ditions is that just the number of plants
wanted in each hill, that many kernels
of corn can be dropped.
While it is better to thin out than
to replant, both of these may usually
be avoided by using good seed and TAX
ing care in planting. When the soil
is warm and dry deep covering will be
best. If the soil is rather wet or cold
it will be best to cover shallow. The
fertility of the soil must determine the
number of stalks in each hill. It is bet
ter to have one or two strong. vigorous
plants than three or four small, un-
thrifty ones. It is better to thin out
than to let the plants stand so thick
as to stunt their growth.-St. Louis
Republic.

MARBLES IN CATTLE.
Simple Remedy Successfully Used h
an Ohio Farmer

Simple Remedy Successfully Used by
an Ohio Farmer.
l am no doctor, just an ordinary farm
Ell. but think l have found a very SIM
pie remedy for MARBLES in cattle, that is
far ahead of using sharp knife and the
disagreeableness of squeezing them
out. Yon know ian ounce of proven
tive is worth a pound of cure.''
My remedy is to grease the backs of
the cattle with any kind of soft grease,
between the middle of June and the
middle of August, using it upon them
twice month between those periods.
It might be we'll to mix some oil of
cedar or oil of pine with the grease. [
have not used either Of the oils, but in
tend to this coming season, as l have
been Informed that cattle in the cedar
and pine regions are never bothered
with MARBLES. Using the grease upon
them keeps the flies from depositing
their eggs or nits, as flies will not light
in grease Gf they can help it). l do
not know the exact time that the flies
commence their depredations ON the
cattle; it may be little later than
June.
Last season I only CREASED the backs
of two of my cattle (that was in July)
that expected to beef, so as to get
cent more on the pound for the hides.
which I did, as there was not warbl::
in them. The other six head were full
Of MARBLES when I butchered, which
was in the middle of January. That
proves that the grease did the work.
I expect to grease all of them next sea-
son. If this remedy proves successful
it. will be great saving of feed for the
cattle, also a saving of money in hides,
and above all a great relief to the cat

THE FLOOR OF A CHURCH..

The Source from Which the Design
of the Stars and Stripes Came.
The origin of national flags would be
a deep, unfathomably deep subject in
most cases, but our flag, the stars and
stripes, is so young in this old world
that it is possible to find out a good deal
about it's origin; still even as to ours we
can only guess how in it's first form it
came to be just as it was, but the guess
is so we'll founded that it ought to sat-
isfy Yankees seeking the source of the
Yankee flag. The first flag of the United
States of America was raised by Wash
ington at Cambridge, Mass, January
2, 1776. 1t consisted of 10 stripes, al
ternate red and white, with blue field
emblazoned with the crosses of St.
George and st. Andrew The next year
congress substituted 10 white stars for
the congress. Now in Northampton
shire, in England, in village called
Great Rrington, is an old church con-
tanning the t6mb of ole of George
Washington's ancestors. It is in
scribed to the memory of Lawrence
Washington, who died in 1916, leaving
behind him (this is on the tomb, mind
you) eight sons and nine daughters.
Two OF these sons emigrated to Amer
lea, and from one of them descended
our great man. Several of the Wash
ington family of the same generation
are buried here, and the Washington
| coat OF arms is engraved on one, bear
ing an inscription to ''Eliz. Washing
ton,' who died in 1922. Now on this
coat of arms appear three stars, with
the stripes or bars beneath them. No
one could see it without being remind
ed OF the "star spangled banner.'' I'm
doubleday when Washington was ar
ranging to raise that flag at Cambridge.
and arranging the flag too, he took the
idea of the stripes from his own old
coat OF arms. Not wanting to make the
new banner too personal, so to speak,
he kept in the blue field and the crosses.
used in the British flag, but congress,
when it took up the subject, was pleased
to follow the old coat of arms that be-
longed to the great general, who was
lighting for them, and substituting the
beautiful stars for the crosses that the
rcdcoats carried. Charles Sumner
took deep interest in all these traces
OF the Washington family in England,
and he once said: "The source of the
design of the American flag lies on the
old floor of Brington church." He had
a copy of the coat of arms made by a
local mason, in native stone.-Chicago
