ARuinaldo the Man.


In his features, face and skull Aguin'
aldo looks more like European than
a Malay. Thus says Review OF Re
views. He is what would be called q
handsome man, and might be compar-
ed with many young men in the prov
ince of Andalusia, Spain. II there be
truth In phrenology he is a man above
the common. The zone Of the skull,
which indicates mentality, Is well de
veloped for a European-abnormally
large for a Malay. The moral zone Is
of medium development, and the AMI
NAL or cerebellar zone is comparatively
small, with the exception Of the reach
over the ears, indicating destructive
ness and cruelty.
The phrenologist would be borne out
by the consensus Of those who know
him. Friends and enemies agree that
he is intelligent, ambitious, far-sighted,
brave, self-controlled, honest, moral,
vindictive, and at times cruel. He pos
sesses the quality which friends call
wisdom and enemies call craft Ac-
cording to those who like him he n
courteous, polished, thoughtful, and
dignified; according to those who dis
like him he Is insincere, pretentious,
vain and arrogant. Both admit him to
be genial, generous, self-sacriicing.

THE JAIL AT 'scoNsET.
A Prisoner Threatened to Leave If the

A Prisoner Threatened to Leave If the
Sheep Weren't Kept Out.
"Part of my last summers vacation
was passed at the quaint little fishing
town of Sconset. in Nantucket Island"
said DR.. +. +. Fletcher, of this city.
Here are situated the court house and
the county jail. The jail is a very
primitive affair, both In its construc-
ton and in the way it is conducted.
The sheep and cattle of the neighbor-
hood find the jail yard an attractive
feeding place, and they wander in and
out Of 1t at will. There were two pris-
oners in the jail while l was In Soon
set, but at different times. In the case
of the first the jailer got tired Of hav-
ing to stay at the jail all the time to
watch and feed one man. The prisoner
was resident of 'Sconset.
"tGo home every day and stay there
till you've eaten your three meals. See
that you're back early to be locked up,
the jailer said to him at last.
$50 during the rest of the term for
which he was sentenced the prisoner
went regularly home in the morning,
stayed there during the day, and came
back to the Jail at night. Nobody in
'Sconset seemed to think there was
anything out of the way in this friend
ly arrangement, which gave to both
men the free use of their time.
"The second prisoner, few days af-
ter the beginning Of his incarceration,
sioners complaining of sheep that wan
dered into the Jail and annoyed him.

tiers out I'll leave the message con.

Grasses for Arid Plaius.

Considerable success has attended
the efforts Of Secretary Wilson to IN
troduce grasses that will thrive upon
the arid plains Of the West. A variety
from the steppes of Russia, known to
scientists as bromus inermus, which
was imported last year by the Depart
ment Of Agriculture, has stood a six
months drought in California without
losing plant. With the return of rain
the plants Immediately revived and
took on luxuriant growth which
reached height of two feet The roots
of this Russian grass penetrate the soil
to considerable depth in search Of
moisture, and for that reason 1t can
survive a drought that would burn up
any grass heretofore known to the
West. The experts of the department
have other grasses under experiment,
and 1t is probable they will succeed In
Transforming much of the arid wastes
into grazing lands. To assist in accom-
plishing this result, the Secretary advo-
Gates the renting of lands in the arid
regions. He desires the cooperation
of graZers, who are now Indifferent to
the preservation of the lands and will
do nothing to improve them.-Chicago

How He Sailed the c.,e.

formatory to help about the place. One
morning he told the lad to go and salt
the calf In the pasture. The boy took
about quart of salt, rubbed 1t all over
the calf, working 1t into the hair. A
gang Of colts in the pasture scented the
salt and got after the calf. They lick
ed the hair all Off the Calls back and
tried to lick the hide off, too. The farm
er tried to catch the calf and wash It
of, but the creature. thinking he want
ed to lick, too, kept out of his way. The
boy. calf and farmer are all unhappy.

All the hoes and other small tools
used in cultlvating soil, including culti-
vator teeth. should be sharpened at the
beginning Of the season and kept sharp
thereafter. In stony ground, a hoe
will need n little touch of the grind
stone nearly every day. This may seem
small matter, but the time used in
keeping small tools sharp is not wasted,

The reason more farmers do not
raise clover, says correspondent In
the Orange Judd Farmer. is they per-
sist in sowing their clover with grain,
usually oats. The result is that the
grain so shades the clover that when it
is cut the direct sunshine kills the
clover by drying it up. / have not
missed crop of clover for thirty
years. | prepare the ground in the fall
and sow the clover seed alone the first
thing in spring. / do not, however,
harrow the field until the ground is so
dry that the dust will follow the har-
row. have done this for thirty years,
and have not failed to get two crops n
year, which proved to be more profit
able than any grass or grain / could
have raised.
At the approach Of winter firm sod
Is secured which does not winter-kill,
while If it is sowed with grain II will
not form sod, because it is so shaded.
The frost then throws 1t out Of the
ground. This is what is called winter
killing BY sowing the clover in the
above mentioned way l never fail to
get two crops the year 1t is sowed, and
the same number each year thereafter.
To make good hay, clover must be cut
when the dew Is off. After cutting,
put 1t Immediately into heaps, and In
two days fork 1t over and let the air
get to it; then heap or shock as be-
fore. In two days open it again, and
again put 1t into heaps. After two or
three days 1t is ready for the barn. l
have had 1t come out in the winter
looking as green as 1t did before being
