Promising Candidate Broke His Collar
 bone Yesterday Afternoon.
 T. r. Adams, l90lS., one of the prom ising half backs for this years Yale football team, met with an accident yesterday that will keep him out of the game for several weeks. He was one of the varsity half-backs in the regular game with the scrub team yes terday and in one of the scrimmages he broke his collar bone. Adams show ed great pluck and wanted to continue in the game. He was thought to have good chance of getting in the Dart mouth game Saturday and possibly of being on the regular eleven during the remainder of the season. Adams is a plucky player and when he was told that he had no chance to play again within several weeks, he completely broke down and it was several minutes before he could realize the extent of his injury.

! A ShreWd Scheme.

A Boston restaurant keeper was stand
Ing In front of his establishment grumb-
ling at the hard times and lamenting his
fate. Although he could see people walk
ing up and down the streets, they all
seemed to avoid him; and even the visit
ors to the town. who could not be sup
posed to know anything about his place,
seemed to avoid it instinctiyely. He
meditated much Oh his misfortune. and
racked his brains to devise some scheme
that would improve his business. At last
an idea occurred to him.
Going to a bronze founder, he ordered
several peculiar tablets of the kind that
are seen in different parts Of Boston on
the fronts of houses to commemorate the
birthplace or boarding house Of some one
or another Of the city's great men. Fast
ening these tablets on conspicuous parts
of his building, he laid in large supply
Of eatables, and awaited the result.
Now the great point about these tab
let's was that they were unintelligible-
the inscriptions being half obliterated
Latin--but their effect was electrical.
Every true Bostonian glanced at them,
took it for granted that the restaurant
was one Of the many with historic flavor,
and patronized it at once. The strangers
that. visited the city looked at the tab
lets hopelessly, then patronized the house
in the hope that they would find some
one who could explain the strange in
scriptiOns.-Harpers Round Table.

Economical Handling of Manure.

The farmer who is a wise man will save
all the manure that is made on his farm
and apply it to his plow land with one
handling, says writer in the Prairie
Farmer. He will keep all the livestock
MS farm will carry, and in order to make
large amount of manure will haul in
when dry a quantity for straw for bed
ding. find it best to do this Immediate
~ after threshing. BY bedding care
and the stock are kept warmer and clean
er In the daytime let the cattle run to
the strawstack. They will eat q por-
ton and tramp down some and more or
less droppings will be mixed with it, oil
this should be hauled and scattered on
plow land. In hauling out manure the
volatile gases are best preserved by plac-
ing it in heaps from the wagon, say five
or six to the load. This used to be my
before the pillow reached it, thus turning
under the manure fresh, but it made
extra work so 1 save labor by scattering
direct from wagon as fast as hauled.
Again to save labor in handling manure
L think it good plan to keep horses
loose in box stalls and we'll bedded. Many
times in winter the ground is too soft
or manure too hard frozen to haul, and
with horse tied up he soon has bad
thrown out IN the weather. By using
box stalls and plenty of bedding the horse
will keep quite comfortable. Load ma
nure directly into the wagon and haul it
out. Ne..er handle 1t but once. and
spread it evenly on thin parts Of the
field. If fields wear thin the most
economical way to get manure on them
is 70 SOW clo-er on wheat and let the
clover grow. till the month of May. After
the wheat is cut them turn the hogs on
it and feed corn and you will make pork
cheap and improve your land. Always
feed hogs where you will want to pillow,
and let the same rule apply to stacking
straw. s-=$ : -, So. b, y s~s=1 5

John Allen Of mississippi, the humorist

it, Mr.. Dingley?'' There must be some
mistake, Mr: Allen" said Mr.: pingley.
"a reduction Of 80 per cent? Why, that
is impossible "Fact, I assure you,"
said Mr.. Allen, trying hard to look as
serious as Mr.. Dihgley. "Just look at

but, Mr.. Allen, that is because he has

We use three-horse 1S-inch blows.

drawn by two horses, do good work, but
they simply chop the stalks into several
pieces, leaving them on the ground.
When plowed under they antagonize the
cultlvator during the cultivation of the
crop. So it is best to get the stalks off
the ground before blowing. There is but
one practicable way to do this. When
the ground is frozen hard drag a heavy
pole or railroad rail over the stalk field.
This will break them off near the surfo 20
OF the ground, leaving short stubs. When
the ground thaws and dries little. rake
the stalk with a common sulky hay rake
into windEOws, and burn them. Then
the ground is ready for the plow.-Agri-
