ouEER WOMEN.

Some women are queer, and their
queerness sometimes has a pathetic
side to it. Here is case where a
young couple went 40 years ago on to a
new farm in new country. They
built such house as they could. and
as the BARNS came and more room was
needed the old house was added to by
lean tos and wings, and here the chill
dren were born, grew to manhood and
womanhood and babe father and moth
er goodby as they went out into the
world. The time came when the bank
account and the needs of the old man
and woman required a new house,
and SO an architect was consulted and
q nice modern home built just at the
rear of the old house, which was to be
removed. Now, when the new home
was all finished and the day came to
move into it, this woman said that she
could never live In it and begged to be
allowed to end her days in the old
home, which had become in some way
part of her life. The smoke still curls
up from the little back kitchen of the
old house as mother gets breakfast,
while the handsome new house, with
parlors, closets and bathrooms, stands,
with Blinds drawn, tenantless. AS we
said before, women are queer.

THEY WENT IN THE NIGHT.


After a merry and musical season of
iovemaking and nest building the birds
slipped away in the night, and the
frosty air of the October morning Is
unbroken by the note or call of a single
bird. The orioles, grosbeaks, catbirds,
thrushes and fycatchers went first,
journeying south by easy installments.
A little later the wrens, "high holes"
,bluebirds, woodpeckers and f1nches
went. Then the swifts, martins and
barnswallows massed in focks and
after holding noisy conventions, as II
planning. their southern trip, sailed
round and round for last look at their
summer home and disappeared into the
darkening SHADES of the southern hori-
zon. Later the robins and the black
birds gathered their clans and mostly
disappeared, leaving only n few Of
their number. which may be found on
the sunny side Of some grove or in
some sheltered nook until snow falls.
The humming bird went when the
frost killed the flowers, while the jay.
the crow and the sparrow will stay
with us through the winter We reluc-
family bid these little friends farewell
and hope that they got enough Of our
berries SO that they will all come back
on their concert tour next year.

A wife and Her HUSBAND. Busine.s.

A Wife and Her Husbands Business.
ut is cause of amazement to me
that man can go on year in and year
out toiling for q family whose members
show no interest in his work further
than to spend the money he makes and
who look upon him as the family mint,
writes Frances Evans in The Ladies'
Home Journal. my firm belief is that
had he in the first flush Of married life
talked over his business and ambitions
with his wife she would have become
interested in both, first for his sake and
safterward for her own and their chill
.dren's. Think Of the gulf that lies be-
tween man and woman united in
marriage when he never speaks at home
of the affairs which absorb his entire
.dayl Mutual interests will bind people
together indissolubly even when indif-
ference, that dangerous bridge Of signs
has swallowed up affection.

HOG CHOLERA. /

"A reader of these notes writes ,ls re-
questing that we say something about
hog cholera. He says that he is losing
all his hogs for the third successive
season and wants to know whether
any progress has been made in discov-
ering a cure or preventive for this dis.
ease. We regret to say that hog cholera
is just as unpreventable, Just as erratic
in its manifestations, just as fatal and
just as incurable as it always has been.
New remedies and methods of treat
ment are constantly being advertised,
only to be abandoned as utterly value.
less; quacks make fortunes out of SO
called cures and the hogs keep a-dying
just as they always have. There are
as many theories as to the cause Of the
disease and how to prevent it or treat
1t as there are about religion. Nothing
definite seems to have been settled,
even by the most thorough scientific
research, save that 1t is a germ disease;
that 1t is both contagious and infec-
tous; that no breed Of hogs is exempt;
that It comes when 1t gets ready and
leaves when 1t has cleaned all the hogs
out. Theoretically, proper food, care
and sanitary conditions should prevent
it, or at least mitigate its force and
destructiveness, but they don't, the hog
of the slums, the animated product of
decomposed animal and vegetable offal,
bearing a charmed life while the well
bred, well fed pig in a palace falls a
victim IN f1,a diSoooo UsI,a oy,,o,f,,, ~, 4 ~
made by the government along the line
of serum incubation hold out some
promise of relief, but have not as yet
been sufficiently tested to make certain
the efficacy of this method of treat
ment. AS affecting the hog interests
of the country as whole, the plague is
an equalizer and regulator, and posi-
tive benefit to the man whose hogs are
not visited by it. But what is our
friend to do who has lost all his hogs
for three years in succession? We re-
ply, quit trying to raise hogs; or, lie
any at all, but just few. Put sheep
of the mutton breeds on the farm in
their place. Put more cows on the
farm, Of beef breeds if you don't like
to milk. and put your corn into mutton
and beef; both are going to pay as well
or better than hogs for some time to
come. We know Of two men who, two
years ago, substituted the sheep for
the hog, and both are more than salts
fed with the results. If you must keep
hogs, you are liable to have the disease
in your herd, and for fact there is no
better remedy to use when it comes
than to cut an inch off the tail Of every
other hog in the herd.

FORTY POUNDS OF NurmEGs.

= V y
The wife of farmer in q certain
county in southern Minnesota went in
to the store Of country village where
the old man ran grocery account and,
calling the proprietor Of the store to
one side, informed him confidentially
that she would like to sell him few
pounds of nutmegs. She said that she
had 40 pounds Of nutnegs on hand,
far more than the family could use be-
fore they would spoil. Asked where
she got so many nutmegs, she said
that they came with an order for gro
ceries which the old man had recently
got filled by n house in Chicago, that
they cost her 20 cents a pound, and
she would let 80 pounds of them 20 at
rs cents. She said they got 10 pounds
Of sugar for 81 on the order If they
took the nutmegs The merchant took
one of the nutmegs and, cutting 1t
open, found that 1t was as dry as a
piece Of wood and absolutely worth
less and as politely as he could told
the lady that they were not worth /
cent pound. She went out of the
store In a state Of mind, muttering
something about merchants being un-
accommodating to their patrons, quite
forgetting the grocery account on the
merchants ledger, which showed an
unpaid balance Of $1s47, which repre-
sented things which were not nutmegs
by good deal. 1t is hardly necessary
for Us to adorn this story with moral,
1t having one very conspicuously fas-
tened to Its tall.

THE PASSING oFTHE COUNTY FAIR.
The reports from scores Of north
western counties Is to tho effect that
the county fair has had its day and
that the people no longer take enough
interest in it, to make it a sue
cess. This is to be regretted, as the
county fair should Of right be credit
able annual representation of the
county's best agricultural interests.
The state fairs, the street fairs and
other attractions have SO absorbed
public interest in this line that In many
counties no further attempt will be
made to hold a county fair.

where Paris Excels London.

There are some things that the French
do infinitely better chan the English,
and one of them is the establishment
of their capital city. No absolute reason
exists why London should not be as
cheerful and beautiful as Paris. The
difference in climate is small, and it is
not wholly to the advantage of the
French metropolis And if money be q
consideration there is quite as much of
that commodity in London as in Paris.
Some statistics. however. which have
just been published throw an interest
ing ray Of light on the cost Of keeping
Paris bright and attractive.
It appears that the title of Vile Luz
miere is not as well earned as one might
imagine, seeing that there are but 5s,-
480 lanterns, more than half of which
have but one burner each. The boule-
wards and avenues are ornamented with
SO. 400 trees, which is,no mediocre feat
to accomplish, considering the inhospi-
table nature of the soil. They are to a
large extent plane trees. which have
been found more suitable than most
other kinds There are, however, no less
than IA, 500 chestnut trees, whereas the
number Of elms is still greater by 100.
This brotherhood of venerable trees,
as Wordsworth would have termed the
scattered forest Of Paris, and their
maintenance costs in round numbers
sos, 900 a year. There are s, 800 seats in
the streets and squares which cost the
weary foot passenger nothing and a
very large number of supplementary
chairs which can be had for a penny. -

nErrEn LArE THAN NEWER.

A friend Of ours with a ten acre ap-
pie orchard has during the past four
years allowed the blue grass to over
run his orchard. His trees were show
ing all the i'll effects of this orchard
pest, were being starved for want Of
moisture and nutriment many were
dying, none doing well. He has now
turned over this blue grass sod, which
was not an easy job to do without in
juring the roots Of his trees, and will
hereafter keep the blue grass out
Probably the best way in which to do
this is to seed to medium red clover,
moving twice year, and use the cut
clover for a mulch. By mulching eight
feet each way from the trees he can
plow over the clover strip in the mid
die every two or three years and thus
keep the blue grass out. We know of
no better way to care for the orchard
than this.

In the year 1890 this country import
ed manufactured goods to the value of
$3.50, 651, $40. During the same period
1t exported manufactured goods to the

change. For the year ending Aug. 3d.
1899, we imported manufactured goods
to the value of $259,570. 29S and sent
abroad the products of our mills and

Beer Money and churches,

A hundred years ago there were no
temperance societies or bands Of hope,
nor Rechabites and blue ribbon army.
To be as .'drunk as a lord" was the
height of human felicity. It was the
age Of ssthree bottle men, of convivial
toasts Of drinking songs Even the
church indirectly encouraged intemper.
ance. There were certain districts where
at Whitsuntide the. churchwardens
were accustomed to levy contributions
Of malt from the parishioners. This was
brewed into strong ale and sold in the
church. The Whitsuntide topers had,
however, pious method in their mad
ness.
The money spent on the beer was ex-
pended by the churchwardens in church
maintenance, and the muddled roister-
ers no doubt believed themselves to be
pillars Of the church even when. under
the Influence of its alcohol, they rolled
upon its pavement They Thought
themselves supporters of the church
when they wanted supporting" them
selves, and deemed themselves most
sanity when they were most soddened.
Until as recently as 1927 when the IL
cense was withdrawn church and
public house were covered by one roof
at Deepdale, midway between Derby
and Nottingham. A door that could be
opened at will served to separate the
consecrated interior Of the church from
the common taproom CT the tavernl-

RARBARrANs AND THEIR DEAD.

RARBhRTANS AND THEIR DEAD.
4 We passed few days ago on the
railroad cemetery situated adjacent
to town of about 600 inhabitants.
The people. 1T seems, were possessed
of sufficient enterprise to fence 1t in,
and that was all Sunfowers, golden
rod, ragweed and all the vast army Of
weed pirates held complete possession
Of the sacred acre. 1t would have cost
about So to have moved the weeds
down, but they were permitted to grow
thrifty and high headed, fed by the
sdecomposing remains Of the towns
founders and early settlers, intersected
ut intervals by the runways Of skunks
and rabbits, cross or a monument
here and there lifting It's head and
mutely protesting from the weeds
against such q libel on American civil
zation. In one corner was a little
cared for spot "a newmade grave and
some fowers), which looked like a
clearing in some forest. We noticed
not less than go empty beer kegs on the
depot platform Of the town.

Trusts in some form are of very an
Gent origin. We knew an old country
storekeeper 40 years ago, when sup
plies had to be hauled over 100 miles
by team, who always Kept accurately
postedson the stock of salt in the little
town, and when he found the stock of
his competitors running low he would
always clap another dollar a barrel
on what he had in stock.

SPECIAL CROPS.

1t is often more difficult to find
market for special crops, such as
fruits, celery, melons, onions, beans
and the like, than it is to grow them.
The home market is soon supplied, and
the surplus product in seeking distant
market is, soon eaten up by commits
sions, express and freight charges. We
know Of a case where man this year
raised four acres of as fine water
melons as ever grew, equal in size to
the Georgia melons and vastly superior
to them in quality, but he had to sell
them for what he could get on glut-
ted home market, and the four acres
of land would have brought him
better return had it been planted to
corn instead Of melons. Where can
merry is within reach the special crops
used by it can nearly always be made
more profitable than the common crops
of the farm, but where market is
an uncertain thing, it, is best to let
special crops alone.

!! 1t is said that the keeping of few
billygoats with a flock of sheep will
keep dogs from attacking the flock.
Be that as it may, the sheep will in
variably rally around the goats il at

nize the fact that the billy is a better

q Sugar bects will bear transportation
by rail distance of 100 miles to the
factory and still leave the grower a
margin of over $50 per acre clear of
all expense involved in their produc-
ton. But very few crops are now
grown which will give the farmer SO
large margin of profit per acre.

Six hundred bushels of onions can
be raised on the same land required to
produce 200 bushels of potatoes, but
the onion crop requires vastly more
hand labor and is too often difficult
crop to find market for.
