Pagodns MS Sin Offerings,

Just as brewers and other evil men
in England conciliate Heaven by erect
ing churches, so the bold, bad, bloody
handed Burman makes it all right for
the next existence by erecting pagodas.
In proportion to the height of the pa
CODA his heap of sin disappears. And
as the Burman, like the rest of us, looks
after his own wants rather than those
of his ancestors, he builds pagoda all
to himself, and allows his grandfather
to topple over. An uncle of the deceased
king must have been round-shouldered
with the weight of his wrong-doings.
Anyway, at the. foot of Mandalay hill
"a nice, breezy eminence, admirable
to give you an appetite and pain
in the back-he built 7a9 pagodas,
though the guides count wrong, and
say there are only $50. But perhaps
they mention the smaller number out
of regard for their monarch's uncle,
not wishing to expose the real magni-
tude of his sinfulness. The pagodas
are all white and set out in rows, and
under each were what we pronounced
to be tombstones. We were wrong. for
the inscriptions were not to the dear
departed, but constituted complete
copy of the law in the Pail tongue

DIVERSIFIED FARMING.
Old Saying About Keeping All the
Eggs in One Basket Ii aS
True as Ever 1t Was.

This is subject which cannot be too
often brought to the attention of
farmers everywhere, because it is the
most rational as well as the most profit
able system that has ever been devised.
To raise corn alone or wheat alone or
cotton alone is not the part of wisdom.
Thousands of acres of Kentucky land is
barren because it has been devoted to
tobacco exclusively and multiplied
thousands are barren in other states
because cotton, wheat or corn has been
grown year after year, until the plant
food for the particular favorite crop is
exhausted.
There is hardly place in the United
States where the farmer is confined to
single crop as his main dependence.
H can rotate corn, oats and grass or
clover; corn, wheat and clover, or corn,
oats, wheat and clover in the corn belt,
cotton and almost any other crop or
series of crops in most of the cotton
belt and even the great wheat fields of
the northwest may be given over to a
rotation of at least three years dura-
ton to the benefit of the land.
When one crop fails from stress of
weather another is usually the better
for it. This year the corn prospect is
very bad, while in the same sections,
wheat, oats and meadows are looking
better than usual, and the man who has
diversified crops is able to face the stu
alton with calmness.
Our southern brother who devotes
bis whole time to cotton and buys every
thing he needs in the way of food,
might profitably devote few acres to
growing food supplies with great profit,
and if to these he would add live stock
he would find profitable market for
his stock and secure the best fertilizer
for his cotton at the same time.-Farm-
ers' Voice.

BULLETS AND HENS.
why 1t Is the More Pm table Plan to
Retain the Layers Just as
Long as Possible.


The value of a thing consists not only
Of it's material, but Of it's capacity to
produce. The advocates of pullets in
place of hens claim that the hen can
be sold in market, which sum they place
to the credit of the hen. The egg, the
flesh on the carcass and the chicks
raised by hen are supposed to be what
her owner receives. But where is the
pullet that is to take her place when the
hen is sold? The answer is that the
pullet must be "hatched and raised,"
and that is an expense that's not found
in the estimate when the advice is given
to replace the hens with early pullets.
It is costly to raise the layers every
year. For instance, let us suppose that
it costs one dollar to raise chick
from the egg until it begins laying, to
say nothing of the time lost. If the
pullet is kept laying but one year she
monopolizes the entire sum of one dol
lar, and must lay dollars worth of
eggs before she can begin to give
profit over her first cost, and she must
also be supported while she is doing SO.
If she is kept two years the first cost
of raising her is so cents a year. If
kept four years her annual cost for ex-
penses the first year (before she began
to lay) is 25 cents year. Hence, the
longer she is retained as a layer the
smaller the cost of the pullet. Then it
must be considered that if one has 100
hens and is raising 100 pullets to take
their places, he must provide room for
200, although he really has but 100
layers. 1t is the cheaper plan to retain
the hens as long as possible, for no mat
ter how much more valuable the pullet
may be, you must first raise your pullet.

GOOD THING TO HAVE.
Some Reasons Why Il Reliable Scale
Should BE Found on Every
Up-tO-Date Farm.

Comparatively few farm conveniences
equal those of good farm scale in con-
Quoting farm operations on business
basis. 1t is very unfortunate for man
to be placed in such a position that he
is obliged to accept the weights and
measures Of a buyer in disposing of his
produce, though we are glad to say mis-
use of this advantage is comparatively
rare among buyers of farm produce. But
in addition to the economy of knowing
the weights of produce to be sold, the
scale is of immense advantage in keep
ing track of the growth of live stock
during feeding operations and in testing
the feeding qualities of the animals pro-
duced on the farm, as may be done by
frequent weighing. The scale is also an
element of interest when boys are
growing up on the farm. They have
natural instinct for keeping track of
those things that may be found out by
weighing and measuring, and the scale
thus becomes an educating influence
that has great value attached.-Prairie
Farmer.

Hints About Cherry Trees,

Our experience with cherry trees is
that they do not require cultivation.
These we had in the garden were al
ways more liable to rot and to be af-
fected by insects than the trees that
stood in dry places and were surround
ed by grass. 1t may be that it is the
extra moisture in the cultivated soil
that predisposes cherries to rot, or it
may be the manure annually applied to
the garden and 10 which the cherry tree
roots help themselves freely. The cher
ry tree does not do well with wet feet.
On high, dry land its roots will run
deeply enough to find all the moisture
it needs, and on such land grass is the
best for profitable fruiting.-Rural

Farming Mt HiEh-Water Mark.

It is an unquestioned fact that every
being and everything has its day of use
fitness. The farmer to-day is the most
useful aad prominent industrial sub
ject and consequently the most success
full; the products of his industry having
the greatest call and demand of the
many industries of our United States.
nearly all of which are most actively
engaged at this time. While it is true
he has encountered many setbacks and
depressions for several years past, yet
at the same time he has experienced
less hardships and enjoyed more priv
leges and freedom than those of most
any other calling, and now that the
brightest days of his existence are star
ing him in the face no one can help but
realize his greatness and independence.

I knew that the man who was hunt

with which to pry open the door, and
gave myself up for lost, but in twink
ling key was thrust into the lock, the
door pulled open, and there stood Ma
ME. Motioning me to follow her she
led the way out by rear passage, and
dashing across the yard, we hid in a
clump Of trees, her fingers pressed on
my lips to keep me silent. A man stand

Halt, thar"
A ball stung the air close to our ears.
"Drop, Mamie; I'll go on

''Never mind the ravine; DROP
! She would not drop, but rar like a
deer. Another bullet Kissed by like an
angry serpent.
"Drop, Mamie, for Heavens sake,
drop"
''No, once in the ravine they can't hit
YOU"
And this was the timid creature who
could not bear to hear how man had
been killed--a coward.
For the first time in my life l, too,
was brave. placed myself directly in
line between Mamie and our pursuer.
I could not see the ground on which l
trod, and tripped on the root of tree.
Just then the weapon behind us
cracked again. Mamie staggered and
tossed her hands above her head, turned
partly round. then pitched forward and
fell on her face.
I forgot everything but the tragedy
before me. Our pursuers ran un, and
seeing Mamie lying on the ground
bleeding, and me bending over her,
hurried back to the house. People came
running out, some of them bearing
lights, among them Mamie's mother.
When she saw what had happened she
swooned. I took Mamie in my arms;
she looked up at me with faint smile.
Then suddenly my head swan. I lost
consciousness. I, too had been hit. Far
from having felt fear, I had not even
felt the bullet that wounded me.
Left by my captors at the house from
which I had vainly endeavored to es-
cape, was nursed back to life by Ma
mics mother. AS I was in critical
condition, everything of an exciting ma
ture was kept carefully from me. No
one spoke to me of Mamie, and had no
