She Would Sec Him Soon.

Mr.. Greville was persuaded when he
was over 60 years of age to attend q
spiritualistic seance. Foster; the pre-
siding medium, was in great form and
the revelations were astounding. Gre.
vile sat silent, and his aged, wizened
face was as emotionless as a mask
Suddenly the medium grew excited
and said to the old gentleman:
"A female form is bending over you
Oh, the extraordinary likeness!"
Grevllle sighed.
She lifts her hands to bless you. y
Greville sighed again.
1T is your mother
'Ah, poor thing!" said Greville. II
am glad"
'She smiles. She says all is well
with her."
Greville sighed again and said: 81
am delighted.
"she says she will see you soon. You
are old and you must meet her before
long"
Then Greville quietly observed:
That's very true. I'm going to take
tea with her this evening."-London
Graphic.

Scott is told in connection with the
sword presented to him by the state
IF Louisiana, through the legislature.
at the close Of the Mexican war. He
was .accosted one day by man who
said, General Scott, I had the honor of
doing most of the workson that sword
presented to you by the state Of Louisi-.
ana I should like to ask If it was
just as you would have chosen I" Il . It's

indeed" said the general. = am proud
Ito have it. There is only one thing ]
should have preferred different. The
Inscription should have been on the
blade, sir. The scabbard may be taken
from us, but the sword, never!" The
sword cost about five hundred dollars,
the principal expense being In the
|scabbard, which was richly chased and
|ornamented.

Partly Analysed Soils.

The analysis of soils is of a good
deal of Importance to the farmer and
yet no analysis can tell exactly what
soil will do or what 1t most needs.
BY chemical analysis we get certain
results. The test shows the chemicals
that compose the soil but it does not
show the humus and ready plant food.
Thus two soils might analyze exactly
alike and yet one of them might be
a productive and the other an unpro-
ductive soil. One might be rich in
humus and the other contain no hui
mus. In one the available nitrogen
might be large, while in the other
there might be no available nitrogen.
The analysis of soils is a thing that
should be carried on to a greater ex-
tent than at present, but we must not
look for too great results from it. One
of the best analyses of soils is that
made by the actual plants. Knowing
the needs of different plants we can
largely determine the character of the
soil by the relative growth of the
plants.
The partly analysed soil may yet be-
of great use to the farmer who has to
buy commercial fertilizer, as he can
determine the kind of chemical fer
tilizer to use, in the largest quantities.
But systematic growing of certain
plants will give him a very full stock
of information as to the actual supply
of plant food in his ground. This is
particularly the case with varieties of
the same plant. Take for instance the
strawberry. It is our experience that
some varieties do we'll on clay soil,
while others will simply do nothing on
such soils. The farmer that tries but
one variety OF a plant on his ground
cannot know that he Is getting the one
that will give him the best results
