Fnrmers should Grow Rest Seed.


No garden or field seed is more easily
grown than the beet. Select smooth
specimens of moderate size out of the
heap and plant them in early spring.
All the work they need is to run the cul-
tiyator between the rows, which should
be wide enough for that purpose If
this is done two or three times, the
spreading branches win cover the
spaces between the rows and win keep
down most of the weeds. The seed Is
gathered by cutting off these branches
and spreading on cloths or hung up In
sheds either having tight floor or hav-
ing cloths spread under the hanging
branches to catch the seed as 1t falls.
When beet seed is ripe it shells very
easily. The seed is easily grown and
therefore cheap, but every farmer can
easily raise what he wants for his own

CLIMATE AND CRIME.

The public press has lately given
much attention ia the subject of the
relation between weather and crime,
says the Monthly Weather Review.
This seems to have started with a pri-
vate communication from some wealth
er bureau observer and has greatly in
terested every one. A preliminary
collection of statistics seems to indi-
cate that crime is more prevalent in
hot weather.
The chief of the weather bureau has
expressed his opinion that it is utterly
wild to contemplte at present the pos
sbility of issuing predictions Of preYa-
lence of crime, and he has no intention
of attempting it. In fact, there is no
official investigation of the subject be-
ing made or contemplated in the
weather bureau and no legal authority
for doing so, even if it were consider
ed desirable, which it is not. The
statistics of disease have generally
shown a very broad connection be-
tween climate and disease and the in
vestigation of that subject is ordered
by Congress, but that has no official
connection with crime. The discus
sion of such difficult subjects is a mat
ter for the careful study of statistics
by physicians, and any conclusions
that may at first seem 30 be justified
need to be checked by later investiga-
tons before they can be practically
applied to the public welfare.-Scien-
tific American.

EVOLUTION OF THE EDITOR.

George S. Welshons, one of the best
known and wittiest of Pennsylvania
newspaper men, recently delivered of
the following in response to the toast
"The Reporter" to the amusement of
the Pittsburg Press club:
There are three grand divisions IN
Newspaper work-journalists, reporters
and editors. Speaking more accurate
ly there are three stages of develop
ment. A journalist is a calf reporter
He is a reporter in the miniature tad
pole stage, when his head is so big 1t
takes all the rest of his body to wag
it about. If he is lucky, by the by
he becomes a reporter. Then when
his legs wear out they make an editor
out ofhim.
The final stage of frog, you know
the extreme removal from the tadpole
lis the bull frog; too stiff to jump, to
old and tough to eat, who just sits on
the bank and bellows. That is an edi-
tor.
I'm the old days an editor called a
man chicken thief. Nowadays the re-
yard. The weapon of the old tim ed
itor was the epithet; that of the mod
ern reporter is the evidence. What
the editor used to assert the reporter
now proves.
eff the people who complain of what
the reporter writes of them would on
ly consider what he does not write
about them, they would enshrine him
in the dearest corner of their hearts.
The waste baskets of daily news
paper in any town do more to keep its
citizens in good repute than any other
agency except the fear of the law and
the hereafter. Not all that a reporter
writes is true. He is not invaluable
himself, and of those who are the
source of his information many are less
so. There are very many men who
cannot tell a straight story. The man
who tells the story to the reporter is
usually an interested party. He has
purpose to serve in metamorphosing
this or suppressing that. The reporter
has no desire except to get the truth
accurately and completely, and to
write it quick and entertainly.
All men do not love the reporter,
and am glad of it. The fear and hat
red of bad men is a chaplet above his
brows. 1t is the assurance of his hon.
esty to his badge of honor as a servant
of truth. If a time ever comes when
all men love the reporter, it will be
time to bury him. He will have for
gotten his mission, betrayed his trust
and shamed the noble fellowship of
men who have made the white cross
of the Pittsburg reporter the decora-
ton of the legion of honor"
