ETHELBERT's EFFORT.

At 1:l4 1-5 past the start the horses had
rounded the upper turn, and were sailing
along the short straight. Kinley Mac
was in the front rank, a length to the
good over Jean Beraud, while the three
year-old Gulden was looming up danger
ously close and passed Imp, who was
falling back on Ethelbert, whom Maher
had ct last walked up and urged along
into fifth place 1t was a little late for
the move, but there We're hopes in the
minds of those who had pinned their
faith to the Belmont horse hat he might
still land the rich stake, and do The
Montana trick over again.
The turn was passed, and the Judges
stand was in sight. KinIey Mac was
swinging alCng not the least bit in a
hurry. while Jean Beraud was spent
completely, and dropping back towards
the rear. Imp was hanging on to fourth
place, ana to Ethelbert. Like a whirl-
wind Ethelbert was coming through the
stretch. Maher was digging in his heels
IN a frantic effort to make up the i'm
mense amount of ground he had lost
during the first mile of his Journey. ami

at him from the crowd. He was eatino

TRUST or FARMERS.
UNIQUE Project to BE Proposed at the
Comlne Agricultural ConEFeHB
In PnriH.

The uniting Of all the farmers of the
world in a sort of international trust
OF agreement to restrict the produc-
ition Of wheat and to raise prices is the
project which it is hoped to carry out
at the International Agricultural con-
ference to be held in Paris July 9 to 16.
It Is proposed to ask the farmers of the
world to reduce their wheat output by
20 per cent, and not to sell a bushel
for less than one dollar.
j. G. Hanley, of st, Paul, execu-
tive agent Of the Farmers alliance and
Industrial union, the National Cotton
Growers association, the Farmers
Federation of the Mississippi Valley,
and the National Grain Growers assoc
citation, is the chief promoter Of the
international Agricultural trust in
America. Prof. G. Rutland, of the
University Of Fribourg, Switzerland, is
the chief promoter Of the plan in Eu-
rope. The idea was conceived by these
two men Independently
Mr.. Hanley has been q worker in the
interests Of the farmers for years. He
has been interested in many h~old-your-
wheat schemes and is prominently as
ISOLATED with the farmers elevator
and various cooperative undertakings.
He has for years studied the problem
o. heat prices and is at present very
active in promoting legislation by con
gress in the interest OF the farmers.
he has long been of the opinion that
if the farmers would only get together
and come to an understanding as to
limiting production and would agree to
sell only when their price could be OBJ
tanned they could easily master the
situation. AS a professor of economics
Prof. Rutland had come to the same
conclusion. His study of the -agrarian
problems Of different civilized coun-
tries led him to believe that the only
cure for the widespread troubles of
farmers, which are much more severe in
the old than in the new world, is to re-
strict production. Both Mr.. Hanley
and the professor were hard at work
getting the idea into practice when
they encountered each other through
correspondence. Since then they have
been working in harmony with a com
mon idea, namely to persuade the In
ternafional Agricultural congress TO
indorse the idea and recommend it to
the various associations present at
the conference for application next

which is rapidly coming to the front as

our poorest soils, it has produced two
to three tons Of excellent dry forage or
hay per acre, which is eaten with rel,

ern Ohio, o before the middle in the
southern part Of the state. When
planted for forage it is sown at the
rate Of a bushel and a half to the acre,
on well-prepared land, sowing with the
wheat drill with all the runs open.
Thus own it soon covers the ground
and there is no trouble from weeds or
foxtail. 1t should be harvested before
frost, and cured as hay. The soy bean,
like clover, adds nitrogen to the soil,
and it is therefore a renovating, instead
Of an exhausting crop. 1t is especially
suited to take the place of clover in
a systematic rotation where the clover
has been killed out by severe winters,
as is the case at present over a large
part of Ohio, or where the spring seed
ing Of clover has failed to catch. The
Ohio experiment. station has used 1t
in such cases with such good results
that it feels justified in urging the
farmers Of the state to give it a care
full trial. There are several varieties
of soy beans, some of which will ma
ture, seed in Ohio, while others will not.
As a rule, the latter class are more
valuable for forage, as they make
larger growth. The beans, however,
which are produced at the rate of ten
to twenty bushels per acre, are a val
liable feeding stuff, as they are quite
high in protein, and to some extent
take the place Of such materials as
linseed meal in the ration. The Kan
sas experiment station has fed them
to ~fattening hogs with the result of
efecting a large saving in the quaint
ty Of food required to make a pound
Of pork, and others report similar re-
suits in feeding them to sheep. The
experiment station has no seed of these
beans for distribution, but it may be
procured Of most of the principal
seedsmen.

where it is to be fastened in the same

binding, if the chains are tight enough,
will hold a load of logs securely over
any road and for any length of time.
If the chains are too loose, the smaller

out and the chains frightened. Then
the twisters must be inserted and Sc

only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inAamed condition of the mu-

this tube gets infamed you have a rumbling

entirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal con-
