From Denver Field and Farm: I'm
writing from Aztec, New Mexico, viii.
liam J.. Wright says: / have observed
the clover growing here and it makes a
fine, thrifty growth. 1t does not appear
to dry out nor do the roots decay after
second season from seeding as in tho
east. l do not claim that clover is
superior as fertilizer to peas or vetches
but my judgment leads me to very
strongly favor clover from the fact that
it is longer retained on the ground as a
growing crop, takes deeper root and
draws more largely from the atmosphere
than do peas or vetches. The clover
resembles alfalfa in the process of re.
claiming and restoring the fertility Of
the soil and is much easinr handled by
the small farmer. Our farmers are
rapidly coming to the idea that a small
Ter area or number Of acres we'll and
thoroughly cultivated is the surest road
to success and we are rapidly drifting

LAWRENCE, INFANT PRODIGY.
Attracted the Attention Of Garriek,
 Foote, Burke and sheridan.


 Raphael. with genius at his back. did not come to maturity so quickly. nor did Rubens. triumphant at Antwerp. hold popular applause so long; for Lawrence kept his admiring public to the last, and was something of won der both as man and boy, says the Century, His whole career was bril- liant, yet not through intrinsic force; his art was successful without being great, he was honored and praised down to his grave, and yet he possessed not genius. There are men who achieve popular success without genius. Lawrence was one of them. The father was man of some birth and educa- ton. but what is called "the poetic temperament" and never got on very well in the world. He was at different times barrister without a brief, an actor without a part, keeper Of the White Lion inn at Devices without guests enough to make it pay. When young Lawrence was years old his father made a change of base and moved into the Black Bear inn. It was here that the boy was placed upon a table to reeite Shakespeare for the guests. Here, also. he developed wonderful gift Of making portraits in pastel of the passing public. guest could have q portrait painted while he waited, and the speed of the artist was not less wonderful than his age. The 6tIp of \ Lady Kenyon were among his early sftters, and the record is preserved that Lady Kenyon,s likeness was drawn in profile, because, as the child artist de- cared, her face was not straight" In a short time he had attracted the attention of Garrick, Foote, Wilkes. Burke, Sheridan and Johnson, and his father began travelling with him about the neighboring country and exhibiting him as one of the wonders O. the age
 Fart of thc Brain That Keeps rame&
 An Austrian savant has declared that the human brain contains name center He says that it is the office of this cell to retain names. A strik- ing case which would seem to confirm this theory recently occurred at Cieve- land. A brakeman was shot by con- ductor, and the former could not re- member the names of persons and things, although he could perfectly we'll describe the functions of all ar .fcles exhibited to him. A surgeon probe6 for the bullet and found it in the exact spot necessary to affect the remembrance of names. according to the Austrians theory. When the pres sure of the brain had been relieved the patient remembered names as we'll as he had done before his injury, and told the name of his ssailant.-scientific American.

PAYING OFF IN BANK CHECKS.
One Troublesome Practice Lsssened by
 the War Revenue Tax.

tn2 6AE h%fNhaS &e%~-
 "The war tax has It's drawbacks,' re~ marked the cashier in large stock yards concern, "but it is blessing to a man in my position. l never knew to what extent the habit of making small bank checks had spread until ! saw contractor pay off his laborers one Saturday night in cheeks. l made inquiry, and found that 1t was con- mon practice not only with him, but many others who hired great bodies of men. The latter didn't like it, Of course, because they were obliged to cash the checks at the nearest gin mill. which meant loss to them. because they had to treat. A contractor who made a practice of issuing small checks told me frankly that in the old days. when it was necessary to face each check with a 2-eent internal revenue stamp, he made as few checks as pos. sible The war tax having included bank checks the habit of issuing small checks has practically been diseon- tinued. That's why I say the tax is blessing in disguise It is not profit able to issue checks for small sums. There is still another reason why we now use fewer checks for small amounts. Expert hank men declare that the simplest eheek to raise Is the one calling for an amount below $1O. The percentage of raised checks Is 6s on sums below s10. Another reason for the opposition to small checks is that they bother the bank authorities. Some banking institutions will cast out a patrons account should he per- sist in making small checks. The cheapensng of the registry of letters IS mother reason for the suppression Of smell checks"

PRINCE OF MONACO
Han Made aood Terms for Hinsssa
 with the Casino Company.

ettst tfAc Ahstno company
 Ten years have elapsed since Prince Albert aseended the throne of the Grimaldi amid pageant which re- called the middle ages. says the Gen. f'eman's Magazine. The reigning sov- ereign, who is 51 years old was ed- ueated as naval officer. and has served in both the Spanish and French navies, taking part in the Franco Prussian war Of 1870. In England he is known for his papers on ocean, ography; in France he has lately mads himself conspicuous for his letter to Mme. p-eyfus; at home he is regard- ed as very shrewd man Of business. who has made excellent terms for him. self with the Casino company. So far the most important event of his reign has been the renewal of NJ Blanc's original concession, which would have expired in 1913, for fur -her period or fifty years from that date. This new privilege will have cost from first to last a million sterling in hard cash paid to the prince; an annuity rising every ten years. till it will reach Il00,000 in the last decade, new opera house, to cost csc poo. and. as recognition of the artistic tastes Of the prince, a sum of E1,00o for each Of ten special representations at the theater. He also receives, as may be seen from the balance sheet of the company for last year, an additional grant of 920,000 for his law courts. police and army of seventy-five men and is also a large shareholder in the concern. Besides all this, the Casino pays for public works and roads, light ing, the wafer supply, the official wash house, the state baths and the loss on the postotIice, while, true to the religious character of Monaco, it gives grants to the bishop, the clergy and the convents. In short, the contem- porary history Of Monaco is simply that of the Casino and the descendant of the Grimaldi is that very modern produet-tfe aristroeratic francier.

Women Not Cowardax.

When eowardice is described as a leading feminine attribute somebody makes huge mistake. Women do the most daring things on record-- take chances which would appal man. They may jump at the sight or mere mention of harmless mouse, but they court death several times year 1t IS one of the traits which makes feminine nature so puzzling. l have known wom- en who were timid to T degree. under ordinary circumstances, come forth as heroines under the pressure of occa. sina. A woman who shudders at the sight of a small cut from which blood oozes will often exhibit marvellous courage in shocking accident. It IS beautiful to thiIz that dependence can be placed upon that species of reek- lessuess which leads us into unneees- sary trouble.
