A REVoLuTIoNIzER .

With fine humor and much philosophy
Harry Sullwell Edwards discourses in the
New York World on the automobile, the
mule and the negro, reaching the conclu-
sion that the advent of the first named
means that the others win have to CO.
He looks forward to the time when the
automobile will take its place on the plan
tation and in country transportation, in
creasing productive capacity and cheap
ening costs. THE pair of oughtomobiles
which at a snails pace draws three bales
to town, to say nothing of sleeping Scipio
on top, must give place to the machine
which will move along brislly with half
dozen vans of as many bales each"
And Scipio will have to go, he says, be-
cause the hum of wheels puts him to
sleep. Put him on an automo-
bile of a summer day, the novelty gone
and he would be down among the cogs
and other old things, in twenty minutes"
There are reasons for thinking that the
automobile will, indeed, bring about
great changes in farm life within the
course of a few years. With the building
of good roads in the rural districts and
the eheapening of the cost of the ma
chimes TO figure within reach of the av-
erage land owning farmer, automobiles
will come into favor and use as a matter
of economy We published a few days
ago some figures compiled from actual
tests showing that automobile transporta-
ton was cheaper than transportation by
teams by more than 80 per cent, and that
the uses of self-propelling vehicles for
hauling TO and from the farms would save
10 the farmers each year hundreds of mil
lions of dollars. We also noted and COM

tor who claims that he has perfected an
automobile which can be used not only for
propelling itself and drawing other We

Ripening Late Tomatoes.

with its glass sashes. is utilized for the to-
sure cleanliness and dryness. Upon this the
tomatoes are packed in layers, the greenest
ones at the bottom. and those nearest
ripe at the top. The sash is placed over the
fruit, and is kept there on all cool nights.
on warm days IL is removed or lifted 10 ad-
nit air and to dry out any extra moisture
that has accumulated. 1t will not be long
before the first layer will have ripened suf-
ficiently to be taken out and marketed. If
of other folks the price will already be ris-
ing. and no doubt reasonable profit viii
be realized even from those first ripened In
the hotbed. From time TO time the to-
matoes are examined, and any that have
decayed or begun to show spots upon them
are at once removed, thus keeping the re-
mainder OF the fruit from becoming dam

and fresh tomatoes at Christmas are worth
considerably more money than those rip

The making of pure cider vinegar on the
farm is not a difficult matter. little care
and attention will enable the farmer TO
make a barrel for home use. or a larger
quantity which should find a ready market
in village or city; a first requisite is good
cider. When this has passed into the condi-
tion of hard cider and exposed TO a tenn
perature of about 20 degrees, il will soon
make good vinegar. The barrel should not
be quite full of the cider. 1t should be
placed in dry. warm place. not in the cell
lar. The barrel should not be disturbed
for a time, resting on supporters about two
feet from the ground for convenience in

the weeds have already been scattered, but
as soon as the frost does Its work and the
