TOLD OF A BLIND STUDENT.
Attachments That Seem Hardly Pos

From the Chicago Daily Inter Ocean.
The career Of James p. Hamilton, blind
student at the University of Michigan is
in many respects remarkable one. At
an early age. through an accident, the
sight Of both of his eyes was destroyed.
aud since then he has fought a successful
battle in life against great odds. He is
the son of the Rev. James Hamilton OF
Grand Rapids, Mich. He was born at Big
Rapids In the same state, Oct. 49, 1872.
When years old he fell and struck the
points of a pair OF shears into one eye,
and from sympathetic affection and poor
treatment he lost the sight of both eyes.
When he was about 10 years old he enter
ed the Michigan School for the Blind at
Lansing, and remained there until he was
graduated in the literary course. He also
learned the trades OF broom making and
plano tuning. He then made trip TO Eu-
rope, paying his own way by money earn
ed at piano tuning While in Europe he
studied both French and German, and
now he Is able to speak these languages

esting portions OF the old world, and he
says the trip was very beneficial in many
ways.

sRrghum In Severe DrOuths-Does 1t II
jure Land?

QUESTION. - Does sorghum resist
drouth more surely than corn or other
forage crops, and is it as iniuriocs to
the land as millet?
ANswER.-Both the sacharine and
nonsacharine varieties Of sorghum resist
drouth much better than corn. This
has been proven In those sections of the
south and west where severe drouths
sometimes occur. The sorghum has
been found to remain fresh and green.
when the corn was almost ruined. Drv
weather may somewhat check its
growth. but when the supply of moist.
ure is renewed it will recover and grow
as luxuriantly as ever. This is perhaps
owing to its deep feeding roots. which.
unlike corn, extend far below the sur
face. Owing to this popularity it is
also less exhaustive ON the soil than
millet and many other crops. which
draw their elements Of growth from the
upper soil. 1t is also a small consumer
of nitrogen. When planted late, or
sown with cowpeas: if it is cut before
the seeds ripen and the field plowed as
soon as the crop is taken off, the land is
left in splendid condition for succeeding
crops Where the canes are large and
coarse, as is the case when the crop is
planted for syrup, it is important that
this plowing be deeply and thoroughly
done as soon as the crop Is harvested.
otherwise the stubble might interfere
with working other crops. II the cane
is sown thick!y in drills OF broadcast
for harvesting or pasturing. little trouble
in this respect is experienced. In all
cases it is best. however. to pillow the
land as soon as the crop is gathered.

small grains and potatoes do well after

Pea Vine HAY.

QUESTION. me how to save pes
vine hay. Can l stack it in the field
and leave it until wanted for use? do
chufas injure land? What would be a
good fertilizer for them?
ANSWER Pea vines can be stacked
in the field and left there until wanted
for use, and this can be done easily and
cheaply and with absolute success in
the following manner: Cat three forked
poles the size of a mans arm and feet
long. In trimming off the limbs from
these poles leave prongs from 10 to 10
inches long, wherever you can. Then
place the poles in the form OF tripod,
locking them firmly together by means
of the forked tops. at the same time
pressing the other ends sufficiently deep
into the ground. to prevent their slip.
ping and falling down. Then as the
pea vines are brought to the spot throw
them with pitchfork, or by hand, on
these poles at a distance of some 2 feet
from the ground. wnere they will catch
ON the forks projecting from the poles,
making thus base for the stack. Then
pile on the vines, distributing them
with some little care. and carrying the
stack up as long as You can throw the
vines to the top with pitchfork. This
is simple way, and will make good
pea vine hay, regardless OF the weather.

when the vines were thoroughly wet,

The Other method of fighting this

the limbs as if dead. A sheet spread
beneath the tree catches the curculios,
which may then be collected and de.
stroyed. If not killed very soon after fall

sheet, many large growers use a recep.
tacle shaped like an inverted umbrella,
mounted on wheels; it has sloping sides,
down which the insect rolls towards tho
center, where it falls into vessel con.
tanning water with little kerosine.
Dropping into this the curculios perish
quickly. Earring is most successfully
done in the cool of the morning, and
has to be frequently repeated. A very
large peach grower in this state is said
to have spent in 1896 $1,000, using this
remedy against the curculio, but. he
