Hannah Whitehall Smith once knew
a woman who carried heavy burden

following incident Of how it was ban

"0ne day when 1t seemed especially
heavy, she noticed lying on the table
near a little tract called "Hannah's

revolution in her whole experience.
1.-THE story was CT a poor woman
who had been carried triumphantly
through life of unusual sorrow. She
was giving the history of her Efe to a
kind visitor on ore occasion, Ind at
the close the visitor said feelingly, oh,
Har~ ali, l do not see how you could
bear so much sorrow!'
I did PIT bear it, was the quick
reply; the ord bore it for me-
Yes, said the visitor, that is the
right way. We must take our troubles
to the Lord
Yes, replied Hannah. but we
must do more than that; We must Ieave
them there. Most people, she contin-
ued, take their burdens to him, but.
they bring them away again, and are
just as worried and unhappy as ever.
But take mine, and leave them with
him, and come away and forget them.
II the worry comes back, take it to
him again; and do this over and over
until at last just forget l have any
worries, and am at perfect rest"

Improving Seo;S

The Journal sees no reason way
seeds cannot Is improved by careful
selection and cGitivasion just as
horses and cattle can he improved by
iudiciously selecting and mating the
parent animals and properly caring for
their offspring, says Texas Stock and
Farm Journal. The Kansas Expert
ment Station is continuing an expert
ment on the station farm for the i'm
movement of corn and have shown
that the yield can be very much in
creased by breeding and selecting the
seed, The men engaged in the test
hope, also, to improve the feeding
value of corn by making it more nitro
genous. They find that some grains
have more than the average percent
age of protein, and hope by the selec-
ton of these to produce grain that
will have more than the average flesh
producing quality. OF course the Or
binary farmer has not the trained skill
nor the equipment to successfully or
conduct experiments on
such lines, but it seems to have passed
beyond question that yield and quail
ity can be increased very much simply
by planting the very best seed and
giving the seed crop just the kind and
amount of cultivation that is re-
ouired. Such methods might profit
ably be applied to other than corn
crops. They would give the same ad-
vantage in the garden as in the field.
As to some plants climate might have
such effect as to cause degeneracy in
spite of the best efforts, making it ad-
yisable to buy each year seed that have
grown under all conditions favor
able to them, but the Journal thinks
there are few products of either field
mr. garden of which this is true.

NOVEL HOUSEWARMING.
Guests Taken to an Improvlsed Res
taurant in the Cellar.

UHo Cellar.
Stereotyped methods of entertaining
are all very well for formal friends.
The dance and the dinner or the for
NAL evening reception possess all the
dignity of former days. But for ones
own particular set it is pleasant to
devise some innovation which will add
to the general gayety of social life. A
young couple-who have been married,
by the way, about thirty odd years
are distinguished in their circle for
never giving a tame or uninteresting
party, and when one receives a coveted
invitation to their frequent festivities
he may be sure he will not be bored,
says Chicago Chronicle. One of their
recent entertainments really bore off
the palm in being altogether out of the
ordinary. They have just moved into
a lovely new colonial house and con-
Guided to give a housewarming Ac-
cordingly about half hundred of their
most intimate friends were summoned

Of burlesque character or some sly
joke which caused general merriment.
When the supper hour arrived it was
announced by the ringing of a great
bell, by which token everyone suspect
ed that something unusual was to oc-
cur. The host headed procession on
the way to the dining room, but reach
ing the cellar stairs it was unexpected
ly diverted and the guests were aston
ished to find themselves descending to
the regions below. Small tables were
ranged around the room. The walls
were decorated with flags and bunting
and hung with mugs and stems of ev-
cry description, with rude lanterns sus
pended from the rafters dimly lighting
it. Presiding over the furnace, in white
apron and cap, was the chef of one of
the large restaurants busily engaged in
broiling oysters over the Goals. They
were served steaming hot in most I'M
conventional style, with other dainties
usually obtainable at the Bohemian
cafe. Every guest was expected to
take his stein and draw for himself
from the wood such liquid refreshment
as he required. Naturally the genius
Of informality presided at such feast
and all were merry. Speeches, jests
and snatches of song made the hours
pass swiftly, till toasts were drunk to
the genial host and gifted hostess and
good nights or good mornings said.

Spring ManurInR.

One Of the old time practices In
farming is the fall applications of ma
nures. being confined almost wholly
to winter wheot. This is still good
plan so FAR as It gees, though not eco
nomic7l, but spring applications OF
coarse Manures are corning rapidly IN
favor, especially for cleRn cultivation
crops. Coarse manures with clean
cultivation, frequent tillage, rapidly
becomes available as plant food. 1t
no longer pays to use manuros mere
ly to enrich the soil, but it does pay
to use them to grow immediate crops.
Manure which stays in the soil two
or three years before becoming fully
available as plant food, Is worth
much less than the same amount In
a quickly available form. Spring ma
nuring has its disadvantages, not
withstanding. In all farm yard ma
nures the ammonia Is first to become
available, and unless potash and phos-
pilates have been used freely prev
iously, there is much risk that he
ready supply of ammonia will encour-
age rank growth Of leaf at the ex-
pense Of the stalk and grain. An
other point is that with many crops
rank growth Of foliage at the ex-
pense of other parts Of the plant is not
practicable; in this case the free am
monia is simply lost, it goes to waste
Farmers should constantly bear In
mind that all manures, or fertilizers,
which are the same thing, are merely
just so much ammonia, potash and
phosphates; not any one nor any two,
but all three taken together. With
clean cultivation crops such as corn,
potatoes, etc., where farm yard ma
nure is used, potash and phosphates
Should always be applied at the same
time, or even earlier in the spring.
They will not waste except on very
rolling ground whore any form of ma
nure would wash away. From 100 to
200 pounds of muriate of potash and
from 200 to 400 pounds of acid phos-
phate should be used per acre, broad
casted or used in the drill as may suit
Individual preference. The object Is
to have the mineral fertilizer there
ready for the ammonia as fast as the
latter becomes available as plant fooa'
Much time and trouble is given to Sc
curing catches of clovers or other
legumes, merely for the nitrogen FER
tilizer stored up by such plants. A
somewhat wiser plan is to take good
care of the ammonia we already have
on hand. To supply soil with am
monia without at the same time en-
surfing the potash and phosphates to
go with it, is to invite the loss OF
the ammonia. 1t is wiser to be on
the safe side, especially as there Is
very little danger of loss through
drainage.-R. Garwood.

WITH BROKEN ARM.
John Is. Gordon Kept His Engagement
Despite a Bad Accident.


Despite a Bad Accident.
From the Atlanta Journal: In WASH
ington a few days ago General John
B. Gordon told the story of remark
able experience he had ten days ago.
Said General Gordon: 81 venture to
remark that I did something that not
one of the youngsters, including Joe
Wheeler, can do. I had an engage
ment to deliver my lecture on The
Last Days of the Confederacy,' in a
town near the border of Kansas and
Nebraska. There was a foot of snow
on the ground, and my only way to
reach the place was by sleigh. We
started and all went well for several
miles. until the driver struck some
thing. and out l went with the sleigh
right on top of me. When l tried
to rise l found that my left arm had
been wrenched clear out of the sock
ct, and pulled down to a remarkable
and painful extent. l never thought
of anything but reaching my engage
ment, where 1000 people were wait
ing to hear me. BY good fortune l
was near the house of surgeon and
in few minutes after the accident
he was repairing the damage. While
he was doing that I sent for another
sleigh two miles away. 1t came on

Cause of Winter Killing.

Some thirty years ago l wrote an
article on "Orcharding in Wisconsin"
1t was given as my opinion in that ar
ticle that the very extreme and long
continued cold of some Of our winters
was the principal cause of injury, and
now after the lapse of more than
quarter of century, carefully noting
the effect of the extremes we have
passed, 1 am still Of that opinion,
says A. G. futile in wisconsin Hor-
ticulturist." Every cold winter when
we have had many days in succession
of very extreme cold, and when on
some of these days the mercury did not
rise above twenty below zero at mid
day, 1 have always found injury soon
to follow. In every case the extreme
cold winters have been those most de-
structive. II we place a foliage plant
in the open air with the Thermometer
at yera, it is soon killed and We do
