cred fence row and farm it for a year.
Ten chances to one you don't need the
fence, anyway.
Rye for soiling should be cut at least
twice. But be sure to make the first
cutting before The heads appear. It is
said that Germans cut it three or four
times.
If it be true that the place to look
for any thing is were it was lost, then
the crops in which farmers lost their
money in 1896 are the ones to grow in
1897. Don't lose heart from one sea-
sons failure; nor even for two of them.
Crimson clover loses much of
its value as hay by cutting too late.
1t is at its best when in full bloom and
before any of the heads die. The cut
ting should begin at this time and the
last load should be gathered before any
of the seed is ripe enough to fall.
Tons and tons OF hay are spoiled
every year because the barn roof has
not been repaired, the horse fork is not
in working order, and the mows are
not ready, and everything has to be
done or left undune on the morning of
the day when the new crop is to be
stored.
A good stand of corn is an import
ant point in securing good crop, and
good stand can seldom be obtained
when fertilizer is put in the hill or

WOMEN AS SCHOOL TRUSTEES.
How well we are progressing in
Maryland in the management of the
public schools is evidenced by the COM
mendable action of the school board Of
Caroline county in the appointment OF
twelve ladies as trustees Of The schools
in that county. Slme women have
been appointed in Anne Arundel, and
they have been desired in many other
quarters. Women have more to do
with the training Of children than men.
Their education depends mainly on the
mothers. Their influence on the train
ing of children shonld be felt outside
OF The home circle as well as in it.
They compose largely the, great body
of teachers. They are nearer to the re-
Quirements than mea could be. Above
all, their selection Win never count for
anything in politics. With large in-
fusion of non-vosers in the school man

An Invasion efEngland.

According to popular estimate, it
requires not less than three genera
tions Of wealth to evolve gentleman
from the common herd Of humanity.
BY this standard Of measurement Mr..
W. Astor Gt is not necessary to fol-
low the custom of New York papers
end use type enough to spell his en-
tire name) is a gentleman, as are
many other descendants from the
traders, smugglers, and fishermen of
old Manhattan. His grandfather, who
smelled strongly of salted pelts, in
which he dealt, has left the English
speaking business world the inyalu-
able symbol 20. K.," which he
first used, these letters being the
initial ones of the two words, @Oll
Korrect, "as that dealer In hides spelled
them. Somewhat to the consterna-
ton Of New York society, Mr.. Astor,
he Of the third generation, actually
contemplates going to London to re-
side. Now, no one questions his
right to reside where it plcases him
best, for he is only one of many who
look upon America in its newnesS
and rawness as only suitable for mon
cy:making, bnt as not the place in
which toget the best things out Of this
life. How common the expression,
Europe is the only land in which to
live" The Astors have always
been noted for looking well to the ia-
terests of the Astors, and the present
possessor of the Astor estates may
reside where it best suits him, and
none need seriously question his
taste or resolve. In England, espe-
cially in London, gentleman can
always have the society of gentlemen,
especially when, like Mr.. Astor, he
has more than pecuniary independ-
ence. According to the rule above
cited, Mr.. Jay Gould cannot be re-
garded a gentleman, and that title
can only rest upon his grandson,
should a goodly proportion Of the
Gould wealth be preserved for
him, and this long after the
ancestral Jay, like the ancestral AS
tors, has found oblivion in the tomb.
