crops. Each asks about the
-uGitsof measure employed and
the net price realized, and the
two more important schedules,
those for staple field products
and for vegetables, ask for the
highest and lowest yield of each
crop per acre. These schedules
are being mailed to prominent
farmers all over the country and
in many instances returns have
already been received. When
the returns have been received
and tabulated, a scheme will be
made from of what is to be ac-
cepted as correct in each case
and what is to be probed far
ther. THe only aim of the office
is toxget what was really the in
tention of the farmer in answer
ing the questions. If the pre-
sumption is strongly against
his meaning what the schedule
says, the Office will try to learn
by correspondence from the SUI
pervisor, or the Enumerator, or
the farmer himself what the
real facts were.
If the farming public will con-
tlnue to cooperate with the
heartiness already displayed,
this effort will result in a more
trustworthy census of farm than
has ever been taken. Farmers,
us a class, are less able to CO.
operate than therepresentatives
of any other great industry.
Hence the Census Office can do
more for them than it can for
centraled lines of business,
which can and do make their
own Investigations, and it will
do its best to present a full and
accurate photograph of this
leading occupation. The Di-
rector of the Census urges every
one interested to aid the work.

a summary Of War News.

lAlIreu Mlinef, arrived at BlO6m-
fonteinSiast night and was met
by Lord Roberts and his staff.
According to dispatch from
Bloemfontein, published in the
second edition of The Times, the
high commissioners visit is of
a private nature 1t is thought
this can scarcely be anything
but an official subterfuge, the
question of the pacification OF
,the Free State and the treat
knlent of the insurgents doubtless
being discussed between Lord
Roberts and Sir Alfred Miner.
According to the same dis
tpaSch Gen. French, previous to
returning to Bloemfontein, oc-
cuMed' the -four mills near Bat
ter, (which are considered an
lmpoNtant acquisition.
Reports from Rouxville and
other towns say the surrender
of arms to the British continues
satisfactorily.
Gen. Clements column en-
tered Fauremith on Tuesday,
March q, having previously
occupied Jagersfontein. Magis-
trates were appointed, the pro
clamation was read, bands of
music met the troops and flags
were flown. The scenes resem-
bled thesAmerican occupation of
Porto Rican towns.
Among the spectators of
Fauresmith was President
Steyn's daughter. Heavy rains
made Gen. Clements march
hard and are causing sickness
among the troops.
A dispatch from Maseru,
Basutoland, dated Tuesday,
March 27, says that apparently
reliable reports that the Beers
are entering Ladybrand cause
the presumption that the British
troops have crossed the line of
the Boer retreat towards
kroonstandt, and that a fight
or surrender near Ladybrand is
imminent. AS oseru dis
patches are not distinguished
for their accuracy, and as the
British force near Ladybrand,
under Col. Pitcher, is quite
small, nothing very definite
seems likely to result from the
operations.
Further advices from Mafc-
king, dated March l6,geitcratc
that all was we'll there and that
the Gordon was not so tightly
drawn, the Beers allowing ma
tives to pass through their lines,
which they had previously for
hidden. The native refugees are

LoAr,mo ON 4 sumMEa DAY.

The lazy boy sprawled on his hack and
squinted at the sky,
Whining he were the lons-winged bird
that slantwise sailed ON high;
Jor day was lapsing swiftly, half way
from dawn to noon.
And the breeze 1t sang. 20, laxy boy,
what makes you tired SO soOnr'
But the lazy boy was silent, and hs
slowly chewed a straw,
Vaguely mindful Of the thrush that whis-
tied in the haw.
And half aware of the bleating sheep and
Of the browsing kline
Ear scattered over slumbering hills to
the horizon line.
Happy, happy was the boy a-dreamins
sweet and long,
Famed by the breeze that tossed the
haw and RATED the thrush's song;
For the whole glad day he had to loaf,
he and himself together,
While all the mouths Of nature blew the
flutes Of fairy weather.
TIE years great treadmill round was
done, its drudgery ended well.
And now the sunny holiday had caught
him in it's spell,
Do that he longed, lazy lout, up-sQuint-
ing at the sky,
And wished he was the long-winged bird
that slantwise sailed on high.
It's good to work and good to win the
wages Of the strong;
Sweet Is the hum Of labor's hire, and
sweet the workman's song:
But once a year a lad must loaf, and
dream. and chew a straw.
And wish he were a falcon. free. or q
catbird in the haw!

M.de /. Husband by /. Trick.

BY a trick Annie Van Doom, Of Pas
sale, n. j., several years ago was mar
rIed to John Duncan, while she firmly
believed that she was being made the
wife Of John Martin, whose best man
Duncan was to have been. On Friday,
in this city, she was married to Duncan
again.
The mix-up in the first ceremony is
charged to Martin. Duncan had been
celebrating, and was in a confused con-
lition. Young Miss Van Doom was also
confused because the arrangements
seemed to have been unduly hurried,
and she was aware Of Duncan's conii-
ton. The party went to Rev. GeOi sc
NJ. Dorwart, who had been engaged by
Martin to perform the ceremony. Miss
Van Doom stood between Dun an and
Martin.
Several years afterward, when Mar
tin refused In any way to longer recog-
nize her as his wife, she discovered
that ON that memorable night she had
really been married to Duncan. and
that Martin himself posed as best man.
There was q separation, several unsat-
lsfactory legal actions. and then pro-
test from Duncan, who had not been a
party to the trick. Then Duncan went
to South America and remained for
several years. When he returned his
first act was to make Annie Van Doom
really his wife.-New York Journal.
