Languages OF the Future.

A writer in a magazine has made the
prophecy that in 800 years from now the
world will only know three languages
English, Russian and Chinese The Eng
lish language will be spoken all over
North and South America, in Australia,
India, Africa, New Zealand, and the isl
ands of Australia and the Pacific. The
Russian tongue will have conquered all
Europe, except Great Britain, and all
Asia except India. Chinese will hold
sway over the rest of the world. If pres
ent indications go for anything, it Is just
possible that in 300 years China, as a
nation, will have ceased to exist.-New-
castle Chronicle.

many farmers think should accommodate

Esrly Potatoes in Gardens.

1t is the habit of most farmers to plant
Il few potatoes for early use in the gar
den. But this is bad practice. because
often the potatoes are planted on the same

potatoes thus grown are most likely to 'be
diseased. Besides, where potatoes are
grown III succession. the soil is filled with
hard-shell potato bugs, which come up
just about the time the potatoes do. and
will often be found gnawing the potato
shoots before it is fairly out of the
ground. 1t is much better to plow
clover sod somewhere on rich land for the
early potatoes, and reserve the garden for

Exercise for Breeding Animals.

thus aerates and purities the blood. Deep
breathing expands and strengthens the
lungs. An Animal deficient in lung power

Regular work will do her no harm if it
Is not too severe or too exhausting; it
should be enough to keep her in good

Care of the Dairy Heffor

The young dairy heifet ought to be as
well fed and cared for as the milk COW,
because her future usefulness depends
on her condition prior to her first preg-
nancy. She does not need food either
for milk production nor for fat, but
ought to be kept in strong. growing con

muscular tissue and gives vigor of con
stitution. The heifer should have a
more active life than the cow kept for
milk, but requires just as much care

COW will live until spring, when she is
