Lovers Of that greatest Frenchman
OF the century are not easily surprised
by any new developments concerning
Victor Hugo, but they hardly expect
a new book from the dead philosopher.
However, such a paradox has deVel-
oped I'm the publication by Hought0n,
MihIin & Co., Boston, Of "Ihe Letters
OF Victor Hugo" edited by Paul
Meurice. The book Of letters forms
a delightful supplement TO the writer's
PUBLISHED works. They are written
under varied circumstances, to all
kinds Of people, from his family circle
to the most distant literary acquaint-
ances, yet they all breathe out that
generous spirit always uppermost 10
Hugo. The man Of genius and con-
yicti0n Is seen between the lines on
every page. Every letter has a sug-
gestion hidden in It, somewhere, that
points the reader To better things,
such as Victor lingo cannot suppress.
Another volume of these letters is to
follow. Price. -.

GOV, MOUNT TALKS,


Says Farmers Are Entitled to Good
Roads and Daily Mails.
In a speech delivered recently at
Rome City, Ind, Gov. Mount said: 1.-The
farmers have right to demand that the
government at least cooperate with
them in securing better mail facilities
for the country. The farmer of the
twentieth century must be man of the
broadest mind, of the highest develop
ment. The farmers home must be sup
piled with books, papers and mag.
azines. He must keep in touch with the
intellectual, social and business world.
To secure the advantages Of daily mail,
good roads will be necessity. With
good thoroughfares to secure speedy
transit, then, by the cooperation of the
farmers and the government, -arrange1
ments can be made for the deposit by
the postman of the farmers mail in a
box opposite his home. Goodroads and
daily mails to the farmer of the coming
years will be indispensable to the
highest success, socially, financially and
intellectually" .s.,E. :

roots soon fill the pot and grow out into
the soil of the bench through the-drain
age hole in the bottom of the pot. Be-
ing thus buried in the soil the little pots
do not dry out as rapidly as they would
do were they exposed to the air.
The moment a pot is removed from
the bench another may be set in it's
place without waiting to clear the
bench, or any portion of it, of the rest
of the lettuce. The method thus proves
economical, both of time and space.
Grocers and other retail dealers readi
ly appreciate the advantage of having
lettuce grown in this way. 1t permits
them to keep the lettuce on hand for
considerable length of time and still
present it to their customers crisp,
fresh and attractive, instead of wilted
and unattractive.
When the plant is ready for market
it may be knocked out of the pot and
the ball of earth and roots undisturbed
may he wrapped sungly in old paper.
The earth will thus keep moist for a
long time and furnish moisture to the
plants through the roots which are i'm
bedded in it. Local customers may be
supplied with lettuce in the pots, and
the pots returned after the plants are
taken from them.
While the subject of forcing is thus
under consideration, few hints on the
care of crop may not be amiss. a.
The temperature should be kept down
to from so to 60 degrees during the day
and from As to so degrees during the
night. Plant lice become more trouble
some in high temperature. (2.) AS
much ventilation should be given as
possible, but still keep the temperature
within the range mentioned. CO. So
far as possible water only on bright,
sunny days, preferably carly in the
day.
The varieties of cabbage lettuce are
Big Boston, Salamander, Drumhead,
Henderson's New York (curled), Golden
Ball (dwarf), Golden Queen (dwarf)
The variety of loose heads are Grand
Rapids (curled), Hanson (curled), New
Iceberg (curled), Prize Head (curled)

THE FARMING WORLD.
LETTUCE IN POTS.


A Method Of Forcing That Has been
Practiced with Success.
The method Of forcing lettuce in pots
may be of interest to those who grow
lettuce, under glass either in the anna
teur way or as q commercial product.
The preparation Of soil for lettuce
should not be too heavy. It should be
composed of three parts by measure
of.loam, one Of manure and one Of sand.
The seed is sown in boxes about ~
by 10 inches and three inches deep, or
on the bench. Benches are six inches
deep, the lower three inches being
filled with well-rotted manure, and the
upper three inches with potted soil pre-
pared as described above. 81
When the plants are about two inches
high they are transplanted to two-inch
pots. The benches are filed with soil,
in which the pots containing the let
tuce are plunged, so that the tops of the
pots are covered with about half an
inch of soil. A little drainage material
Is put in the bottom of each pot. The
plants are usually set on the benches
about ten inches apart each way. The

Don't Blame the weatb.-

Z Don't blame the wet season for the
condition of many of your roads. See
that your candidates for local Offices
favor good roads, and then supply them
with the information that will enable
them, to know how to get and keep
them. Most people are all at sea on
these subjects. The heavy rains of
the summer have given startling object
lessons to road-builders and superin-
tendents in some sections of the coun-
try. Roads that were nearly fiat and
which lacked proper drainage were
swept over by the water. Infome spots
the surface was torn away; in others it
was covered with stones and earth.
This did not happen where roads were
suitably crowned and drained.-L. "a.

MUSHROOM CULTURE.

How to Grow the Toothsome Fungi In

Mushroom growing in summer re-
quires as indispensable conditions a
cool, moist atmosphere and dark place
from which flies may be excluded. The
breeding of maggots in the mushrooms,
as soon as summer weather begins, rem
ders the culture improbable under or
binary conditions. A cool, dark under
ground cellar, however, may be used for
mushrooms, and the basketful depict

Gravity Dreaming in Kansas.

Gravity Dreaming in the private dairy
loses more fat than most farmers dream
of. If ice is used at once after milking
to reduce the water round the cans to
about 40 degrees Fahrenheit the fat will
rise, leaving not more than one-fifth of
one per cent, and if the water is at 60
degrees or above one per cent. or more
will be left in the skim milk. This one
or more per cent. is a third or half Of
all the fat in the milk. This suggests
the putting up of ice by the private
dairyman. The climate of Kansas pro-
vides for this and is greater boon than
many imagine. tsaE
