zola's Love for His Dog.

M Emile zola Is. very fond of ami

this connection. When the novelist left
hurriedly for England ut the time Of
his threatened arrest, he had no oppor-
tunity of taking his little dog with him.
The affectIonate creature looked in
vain for Its master. and not finding
him, became very detected. Later the
poor dog met his death from q stroke
Of lightning.

Julie. of Romance and Reality.

A movement is on foot to restore
and renoYate the tomb of Juliet in
Verona, Italy. 1t is proposed to make
the structure just twice as large as it
is at present and to continue the small
arches which are now only in the
front of the structure all along the
sides. It is not commonly known,
perhaps, that Romeo and Juliet are
not creatures of the brain of Shakes
peare, but they lived and loved and
died in Verona.
The home of this favorite of Shakes
peare's work is still standing in the
little town, and there may be seen the
famous balcony in which Juliet stood
when Romeo breathed his words of
love to her.
Verona is the capital of province
in Upper Italy, which has nearly TO-
900 inhabitants. 1t is Situated on
both banks of the River Adige, which,
next-to Venice, is the most important
and interesting town of ancient Veni-
cia.
1t is rather a remarkable fact that,
though students of the works of the
Bard of Avon have always known OF
the existence of this tomb, the infor-
nation does not seem to have been
spread to the general public. Indeed,
it is probable that most people. while
wondering at the beauty of this love
story, have supposed it to be fanci-
full creation of the poets Imagination.

The tubing is electrically heated, so
that the water is nearly boiling when

Raise Good II oEs.

If a person who knows anything at
all about hog; feeding was given a
chance between a hog that would gain
twenty-tlIree pounds in six weeks and
one that would gain ninety pounds in
the same time on the same feed, he
wouM not be long in choosing. Dur
ing the past.ten months the Kansas
experiment. station has fed 100 hogs
that were bought of the farmers in the
.vicinity;df Manhattan without regard
/, to. breed or breeding, just as they
were thriving and weighing in the
neighborhood of 100 or 1875 pounds.
This class of hogs is used because
these experiments are for the highest
benefit of the farmers, and by taking
the stock they raise we stay within
their conditions. A few conclusions
may be drawn from the following facts
taken from observations Of feeding
eighty head of hogs which were just
finished. These hogs were nearer of
the same age and size, and ranged
from the long, big boned bacon hog to
the short, fne-boned chunk, accord
ing to the care or carelessness of the
farmer who raised them.
First, asto point of gain: The com!

Wien 70 Cut Corn Fodder.

Don't cut your corn fodder too
early. ylf you do you lose large
percentage of,its feeding value. Pro-
fessore Armsby of the Pennsylvania eSs
pertinent station states that ga very
considerable portion of the nutrients
OF corn is produced during the latter
stages of growth. According to the
results of experiments at this station,
only about one-fourth of the total dry
matter of the crop has been produced
up to the time the ears begin to fill,
while two-6fths of it are produced after
the kernels begin to glaze. Expert
ments recently completed, extending
over two years, indicate that there is
no decrease in the digestibility of this
dry matter as the plant natures, as is
the case with. most other forage crops,
but rather light increase, especially
as regards: the starchy matter and the
fat which makes up the bulk of the
plant. The actual yield of digestible
food per acre in these experiments
was as:follows: Cut when the ears
were silking, 1878 pounds; cut when
the ears were glazing, 1860 pounds;
cut when mature, 1924 pounds. The
progressive, !, farmer will note these
comparisons with interest and profit.

Tn" Book fan.

The latest craze is the book tea. A
number Of guests-the sexes equally
represented-are asked to afternoon
tea, and each is to wear a badge de-
noting book. The book Is not neces-
sarily a novel, though the run is on
novels, nor is 1t necessarily modern
book, though these are more generally
selected. The badge, which Is little
toy, must express the title Of the book.
The guests arrive decorated, supplying
and wearing their own decorations,
and each has to guess the titles Of all
the others. Some people are very
stupid at It, some very quick. And
there Is skill, too, not only In guessing
the titles, but Ia making the orders.
There are two prizes ono for the guest
who guesses most and one for the
guest whose badge has been most diff
cult to- interpret. Much tea and some
time are consumed, and men and
women show themselves to be children
of larger growth.

Unused Portions of Manure.

Value does not always depend ou
bigness. 1t is this;fact which farmers
are learning that gives them more
faith in the concentrated mineral fer
tilizers as compared with stable man.
ure. But in both there is much bulk
that goes to waste 1t is good min
eral,fertilizer that has four or five per
cent. of available phosphate or seven
to ten per cent. of potash. So when
200 pounds of mineral fertilizer are
distributed per acre, it means that the
benefit is all concentrated in ten to
fifteen pounds if we could distribute
it evenly in concentrated form. With
stable manure there is always much
less proportion of mineral fertility,
but this is offset by the available nj
trogen which the stable manure gives
of while it is decomposing. The
stable manure has also another effect.
1t is bulky in proportion to its weight,
and therefore makes the soil much
lighter than it should be, because it
separates the soil PARTICLES and admits
air. 4llis imprisoned air warns the
SOIL. which is an advantage in early
spring for most crops. Hence it is
that coarse manures are SO generally
drawn in winter and plowed under
early in spring for hoed crops. 1t is
then probably the best use to which
thesmanure could be put.

Ideas on Flowing.

To do good plowing one needs a
good plow, and to know how to se-
slect good plow one shes}l thorough
sly UNDERSTAND The object Of plowing.
Ioo many .hink tits simply to turn
the soil over, upside down, and
yet leave it as smooth as it was
before. Others consider that plow
!. the best which will move the largest
amount of earth with the least possible
exertion of man or beast.
Both are erroneous ideas. OF
course, in blowing sod land it is de-
sirable that the sod should be left
underneath and friable soil brought to
the surface, says Massachusetts
Ploughman. For this wedge-shaped
plough is necessary, or wedge-shaped
so far as it goes down into the earth,
but when the plough begins to lift the
furrow slice it should also impart to it
turning motion, twist which will
not lay it nearly upside down, but
press against it in such manner as
ITO breaEI up the earth into minute
) cracks, NJ ich will let the air into it
, so thatNit will be partially pulverized
| before the harrow is put into the
field. -
/, To work with such n plow, lifting,
turning and breaking up the furrow
slice nd, atone operation may add
something to its draught and require
!. more horse power, but it will save
sometlang;in the, labor required at
, narrowing, or give great value to it
. by more thoroughly fitting the soil to
admit the action of air and moisture
and heat to make available the ele-
, ment of plant food in it. as we'll as to
: allow the. plant roots to penetrate it
more readily in all directions.
. Bnt1 for ,plowing old ground the
plow. which turns it over is not the
best plow, neither is the one which
will go over the largest area in day.
Our ideal plow for this work would be
one which would take narrow fur
row slice, and instead of inverting it
rather set it up on edge, in which
position it would crumble more, be-
cause more of the air and water and
sunshine would 60 down into it be-
tween the furrows, which being of
warm and dry earth on one side and
the moist and cooler soil from below
upon the other side. would be pulver-
lied by chemical action in short
time, instead of baking in the suns
rays, as does the under soil when the
earth is turned over perfectly smooth.
The action of the harrow then is to
still more stir it up and tighten it, in
stead of packing it solidly below the
depth to which the harrow goes.
