ROOTS FOR THE DAIRY.
why Farmers should Plan to Plant
an Acre or Two TO the Sue
culent Mnngel.

Wherever few cows are kept for
milk or butter it would be well to con-
slider the advisability of growing a few
roots. A ton of roots does not have as
large a food value as most feeds we
might mention, but it furnishes a sue
culence which cannot be obtained in
winter from any other food except si-
lage. Silage requires equipment in the
way of silo and cutting machinery
which is not available to the man with
q small herd. Roots may be grown on
any good loan soil, and will yield a
profitable return in feed for labor ex-
pended.
At the Indiana station mangels were
grown at labor cost of $1.O7 a ton.
This included plowing, fitting, plant
ing, wedding, cultivation and harvest

AN ORDINARY OLD COIN.
But 1t Served to Bring out the Fail

"Say!" said the street car conductor to a
mild-mannered man who was deeply en-

Ter, don't want this quarter. l can't use

hold out his hand for his change, but paid
no other attention to the conductor.
See here!" yelled the conductor, getting
red in the face, you can't pass no quarter
like that on me. It's slick. l can't take it
for more than 20 cents"
10 The mild man looked up and said: "I'm
sorry, because you gave me that very quar-
ter yourself last night, and I've been laying
for you since. Well, give it here" He took
the quarter and gave the conductor a nickel.
As he took the quarter from the conductor
he suddenly dropped his newspaper and
gave "a chuckle.
well, WE'LL" he exclaimed; "here's luck.
Bless me if that isn't an 1882 quarter with
IA stars and an arrow. It's worth 1882"
He slipped it into his pocket with evidence
of much satisfaction.
A hungry-eyed man in the corner, who had
overheard the conversation, jumped up and
said to the conductor:
Isn't that the very quarter l gave you
yesterday morning? l missed that quarter.

Copyright, 1892 by Press Publishing Coz
LONDON Nov. 3.--(New York World Ca
blegram-Specal Telegram.) )-The true story
of how Sir General william Penn Symons
got his mortal wound at the battle Of Glen
coe is known at the war office here, but has
not yet been told in the English press. 1t
is an open secret in official circles. The
extreme vagueness OF the accounts published
plainly suggested that full Information was
being kept back and l succeeded today in
unearthing the mystery.
General Symons. who was ia command of
the British forces at Glencoe was trying to
drive the Beers from the hills they had
seized. Accompanied by his staff, he was
watching the action from the shelter OF
clump of trees a target such as the Beers
sharpshooters delight in, but their bullets
fell short. AS the action grew hot and
the British force was suffering badly, Gem
eral Symons ordered the Dublin Fueileers
and the Kings Royal Rifles to advance on
the main position OF the Beers.
| The burgher marksmen met the advance
with CALLING fire. The lines wavered
| The officers rallied their men as they rushed
| forward in the face of witherng hail Of
| bullets, but again the lines wavered. Three
OF their gallant leaders were shot.
Once more the undaunted officers got their
| men to attack. On they went, pressing
sturdly forward. Here and there men
dropped on the way and once more the gal
liant fellows were 90 seriously checked that
rout seemed impending.
| General Symons saw everything. He in
stantly ordered his staff to remain where
they were by the clump OF trees and alone
| galloped out into the open toward his hard
pressed men to lead them himself to vic
tory. He had gone but half mile when he
reeled in his saddle and fell wounded from
his horse.
Major Sterston of his staff galloped UP
and had Just reached the body of his COM
mander when he himself was shot dead.
General Symons, in short, had preferred
death to living with the responsibility fol
what seemed destined to be another Majuba
hill. But, as mortally wounded, he was
borne from the battlefield, he received the
glad tidings that the attacking infantry bat.
talions had once more rallied and carried the
Boer position by storm, though with ter.
rible loss.
This is how the brave old Indian fighter
met his death. 1t shows the desperat,
situation OF the British forces at Glenco,
and how near that bloody fight was to being
an absolute defeat. For this reason th
real story has been kept thus far from th
English press.
