FARM NOTES.

Sowing seed in dry weather may re-
suit in but few OF the seeds germinat-
ing. If the ground is very dry it will
take moisture fro mthe seeds, but IL
the soil Is damp the seeds draw mois-
ture from the soil. The lack of mois-
ture is the cause of seed being slow in
terminating unless when covered too
deem, which causes the seed to be
longer in pushing through the ground.
In selecting seed corn in the field the
vigor and growth Of the stalks should
be observed, as we'll as the ears. If a
stalk produces two or three good ears
mark It, By using seed from the most
prolific stalks the tendency will be to
produce more ears every year, until
as army as four and FIVE ears per stalk
will be the result.
= The burdock Is week that Is ex-
terminated with difficulty. as the plant
produces great many seeds and they
remain in the soil for years, ready tc
grow as soon as conditions are favor
able. If the plant is cut off below the
ground and a handful of salt thrown
on the root the plant will soon die, as
the root is soft and the salt rots 1t.

WHEAT MUFFINS

There are two varieties of wheat
mullins, those raised with yeast and
baked on griddle as English mullins
are, or in the oven in muffin pans, as
the New England muffins- usually are.
and those made with baking powder.
To make a raised muffin which is to be
baked in the oven. make a batter with
quart OF -four. one tablespoonful of
butter rubbed through the flour, one
pint OF warm milk. half a cake of COM
pressed yeast, or half a cup of liquid
yeast; two we'll beaten eggs and a tea
spoonful of salt. Let the batter raise
over night; in the morning fill deep
muffin tins half full and let them rise
to the top OF the tins. Bake them In
a quick oven twenty minutes. Raised
English mullins are never made at HON.
in England, but are always procured
at a bakers. cold. and then toasted fol
breakfast or tea. when they are served
1t is hardly possible to make these muir
ms successfully at home. because they
are the result of bakers methods. and
:an only be successfully baked in a
arge bakers oven.

HOW the Boer women Take Defeat

The spectacle presented now in
South Africa is much like that of the
early reconstruction days" in the
United States when the tales of person
al vaior had given way to those of
heroic devotion to waning cause.
"The men are still sullen, the women
are still drumlie and dour" writes
John Stuart of the London Morning
Post. describing the Transvaal women
about Krugersdrop. "As / have often
before remarked, tn Sc women hate us
with a hatred as cruel as the grave
Send me a wounded Englshman,'
wrote a young woman of the place to
her lover outside LadysmIth, for I
want to watch him die That was a
common request found in letters from
all over the country, mostly dat d
from Krugersdrop. And now Tommy
Atkins prevades Krugersdrop and adj
dresses the young women who had
such kind hopes for him in language
which Mary Jane of Chelsea would
think facetious. He means neither un-
kindness nor incivility. Only these
poor women are not in a frame Of
mind to understand his large, friendly
heart
81 am afraid that Mary Jane of
Chelsea would be a little annoyed il
she could see his simple overtures Of
peace. They are very frank, but here
they are very futile. But / am going
to tell you a story which shows that
there is something akin to nobility in
this passionate hatred by the women
On Monday night, long after the
town had surrendered, a Transvaal
flag was fioated over one house occupi-
ed by Mr.. Phanie Koch. who is
brother of the general who was
wounded to the death at Elandslaagte.
A trooper saw the flag and hauled it
down.
Next morning Mrs. Koch, in femi-
nine obstinacy, had another hoisted.
An officer ordered it's removal. She
called him into her sitting room and
rallied at him at considerable length.
.Ah,' she cried. "You can take
away our flags and you can take away
urJindependence, but you cannot take
away our spirit Thereupon she open
ed tinkling cottage PIANO and played
the Transvaal 'Volkslied.' singing the
words in voice that shook with age
and rage. Pretty tune said the off,
Ger, what is it? Play it again. please
But she only shook her fist in his face.
She was speechless. Poor, wild wom-
an! If she had been English or
American, she would have found q
to put the blunt pathos of the
scenes into jingling verse for the
chool books"
