Sorghum as "a Forage Plant.

for feeding green, and for making hay !?

loamy soils, but will do we'll
on any soil that will produce fair crops
OF cora or cotton. Prepare the land
well, and bed as you would for cotton

pounds OF a complete fertilizer. About
cotton planting time open shallow fur
row and drill the seed-from a half
bushel to three pecks to the acre. Gull

when the sorghum is grown for syrup

varieties, as are also the Early Orange"
and "Kansas Orange
Sorghum will do better on thin soils,
and will stand drouth better than corn.
For making hay, cut soon after it begins
to bloom and put up in small shocks
until cured. For feeding green, cutting
should be begun as soon as the plants
begin to form heads. Stir the ground
with a cultivator or pillow Immediately

A plucky American woman. who began

Philadelphia Times. Earning q small sal
ary in a public school, she has taken pri-

been able to go to Europe every othe,
year for a two months holiday.
Her first Journey was made to England
and Scotland, and was enjoyed SO keenly
that she planned another one. and saved
money for 1t during the next two years.
The second tour was through France, Bel
comfortably she learned French during her
leisure hours.
Returning to her school work. she began
to study German. and at the end OF two
years was ready for a journey up the

In the course Of twelve years she has
made six Journeys to Europe and learned
to speak six modern languages. and she has
supported herself entirely by her earnings
as school teacher. and has paid every
penny of her travelling expenses. Starting
with a painstaking study of the language
Of the country which she was to visit. and
also preparing herself by a course of read

There may be higher aims than those

WASHINGTON BUDGET.

Washington, Jan. %, 1905
The geld standard crowd is on
the run. The stampede began
before the adoption of the Tel
Ter resolution by the Senate,
but the knowled se that that
resolution would be apoted, as
we'll as the advice of the re-
publican Senators and Repre-
sehtatiVes from the middle
west, convinced Mr.. Mckinley
that the gold standard business
would not go down, and that
his party's only hope was to
make a play to keep the..bimet
alli5ts from deserving the re
publican party in a body. The
game was started when Mr.
Preston, Director Of the u. S.
Mint, who had made himself
particularly obnoxious to the
silver men by his obtrusiEe ad-
vocacy of the gold standard,
both under the Cleveland and
the present administration, and
whose work in that direction
was referred TO by Senator
Woleott in his recent speech,
was bounced and the position
given to a republican bimetal-
list from Iowa. But the highest
trump was played when Score
tary Gage, the high priest of
the goldocracy, was made to
publicly say that Mr.. McKin-
ley was bimetallist and vas
supported in that policy by
every member of his Cabinet.
Ye godsl think of that for a
somersault.
The opinion is growing in
Congress that the sending of
sks.s waashigto Havana vas the
