THE number of delinquent tax
payers this year as compared with
former years is comparatively
nothing. This in the main is due
to the prosperous times in Graham
county during the last year, and
can also be partly attributed to
the vigorous manner which Treas
urer Adams has used for the col
lection of taxes.

w. G.. Iatta AgTiculturist, Purdue
University, Indiana:-We have used a
weeder four years in corn culture. Dun
plan has been to use the weeder the
first and second civilizations and follow
with the ordinary Une-horse harrow
after that. 1t has been used for other
purposes, l believe, at this station, but
this is the extent of its use in this
department. l will give below the re-
:alts OF corn produced with different
culture implements, including the
Seeder and harrow, that you may judge
sf the relative merits Of the work Of
the weeder. The average for the past
four years is as follows:

at an Illinois institute:
(Which is the most effective, the
one-horse weeder or the ~two-horse?
A.-The two-horse, where you have
a good deal of land. The one-horse ma.

fourteen feet. For an orchard abou'
eight feet is big enough, but if yo,
are going to use it in corn and want tt
cultivate forty acres you had better
have two horses.
Q.-Is it practicable to put it intt
corn?
Ayes, that is what it was mad
for originally, corn and potatoes. ! cul
tivate my strawberries with it.
CIT will dig them right out, won
it?
A.-No. 1t is too light a machine To-
that.
Q.-What will it do if the ground II
baked?
A.-You can't use it at all then. l
is like any other machine. 1t has it

can go by the side of a corn stalk an

What causes the headaches and other
v troubles which plague so
many boys and girls in the schools
and so many students in the colleges?
Steady, cheerful and reasonable appli-
cation of the mind is not bad for any
body; it conduces to fine health by de-
veloping that vital energy-brain
~force-which runs the whole physical
machine. Probably in nine cases out
of ten the mischief is traceable to some
kind of disorderly living, to nocturnal
excitements, irregular hours, or the
waste Of force in some foolish indulg-
ence. Here, for instance, is the state
ment of an experienced physician to
the effect that 10 per cent of the ner-
vous diseases he has dealt with were
caused by tea and coffee. Professor
Spade holds that they are positively
injurious to children and young pko-
pie, and many persons past middle life
would be much better off without
them"

Great care should be taken in select

cold water and dry with a cloth.
Sailed fish must be put in cold water
with the meat side down, and if very
salt the water will need to be changed
several times. Salt fish is expensive,
as much of the nutriment is wasted in
the water. If it be boiled or steamed
1t will need but little freshening. When
boiling fresh fish add a little vinegar.
In frying fish be sure you have a hot
fire, and the dripping or fat very hot
when the fish is first put in, SO as to
seal up the rich juices and prevent
soaking up the fat, which destroys the
flavor and renders it unwholesome. AS

the same as a doughnut, but most cooks
prefer beef drippings or lard and drip
pings mixed. The. secret of success is
to have the fat the right temperature
before putting in the fish. If you are
not an experienced cook and cannot tell
when the boiling point is reached, test
it by dropping in a piece Of dough or
white bread; if it browns in one min
