DURATION OF MODERN WARS
The Contest Between the English and
the Beers Has Not Been I'm.
usually PrOtractcd.

The unexpected protraction of the
Boer war need not alarm Englishmen,
since much longer wars have been
fought by them within this century,
says Golfers Weekly. Napoleon de-
clared war against England in May,
1903, the previous war between the two
countries having only terminated by
the treaty of Amiens in October, 1901.
The war of 1903 lasted till April, 1914,
when Paris surrendered to the allies
and Napoleon was sent as prisoner to
Elba, where he arrived on May 4. He
escaped from Elba in March, 1915, and
recommended the war, which finally
terminated with Napoleon's defeat at
the battle of Waterloo, on June -, 1915,
having lasted nearly - years. Ma
poleon was sent as prisoner to St. He
lena, where he died in 1921. The Euro
pean power that has been most at war
during the century has been Turkey
80 years of it, as against 62 of peace.
The second on the list is Spain, with
SO years of warfare, not counting her
last fatal campaign. Then come
France, with ~ years; Russia, with
"a, and Italy with 80. Great Britain
has had no less than q. Germany, not
counting Prussia, follows with IA;
Sweden with 10, and Denmark with 9.
Our own country during this century
has escaped with three foreign wars,
one civil strife, the Philippine insur-
rection and BAKERS dozen of Indian
campaigns, the longest of which was
the Seminole war.

Changing Breed. and Crops.

The farmer who is continually
changing his breeds of stock or his f..
vorite crops is very seldom a money
maker. He is apt to find out that he
made the change just a little too late.
He sees some one making money on
beef cattle, and he abandons dairy
farming to breed fat cattle, only to
learn that he ought to have bred hogs.
He tries hogs, and becomes convinced
that sheep are more profitable. He
gives up crop he knows how to grow
to take up some speciality that his
neighbor has found profitable one.
and few years experience teaches him
how to grow it, but it also teaches him
that he could have bought his expert
ence much cheaper. We do not mean
that man should not change his
breeds of stock, his crops or his meth
DDS of farming, but he will do well to
make his changes gradually, and not
part with a good thing every time he
thinks anyone else has better thing.

He Would Repeal 1t.

AS good story as was told in the
recent gold debate came from the lips
of William L. Jones, a new member
from Washington. The logic of events,
he said, had overcome free silver logic,
and the democracy was now relying on
the law of supply and demand. "In my
last campaign" Mr.. Jones continued,
II met an old fellow and we were talk
ing about the price of wheat and meat.
1 told him that the price was regulated
by the law of supply and demand.
els there such law as that?' he
asked. Il never heard of it.
"'Why, certainly there isl said.
"'Well,' he thundered, thoroughly
aroused, when we get into power a gain
you can bet that we will repeal that
law "-Philadelphia Post.

of doors. For general crop prefer to
burn brush heap where my plant bed
is to be, then dig up with mattock,
working in all the ashes while warm,
and sowing the seed in early spring.
The bed is well raked, thoroughly
firmed and covered with brush. This
makes an ideal bed where the plants
grow stocky and form good roots.
Transplanting is best done with dib-
BILE, putting the plants on the west
side, of the burrows running north and
south. Ifyoung plants are watered too
much they will not grow thrifty and
are more liable to blight. When the
plants get about one foot high they
should be trellised by driving stakes
near each hill or putting them eight to
IL feet apart and tying with binding
twine.-American Agriculturist.

Mixing Kerosene Emulsion.

Many speak of the emulsion as
troublesome to make. 1 find it very
easy by the following method: A bar
of common washing soap is dissolved in
a quart of water and allowed to boil.
then two quarts of kerosene are added
to the boiling soap. This is churned,
while hot, with a revolving egg beaten;
a force pump would be better, but do
not own one, and a beaten answers very
well. When the emulsion is properly
made it will come like butter, so thick
that the beaten will not work. A pint
of the thick emulsion is diluted with
eight quarts of water, making liquid
resembling skim milk in color but
closely related to kerosene in odor.-

ROMANCE IN A COTTONWOOD.
Wisp of Lovers Hair Discovered
Where 1t Was Placed Years
Ago.

A unique and interesting remnant OF
a love affair of long ago has recently
come to light at Chicago Heights, says
the Chronicle. A few days ago w. H.
Drake felled large cottonwood tree
which stood on a residence lot and
commenced cutting and splitting it for
stove wood. In one small section he
found fve-eighths-inch hole, into
which beautiful lock of auburn hair
had been placed when the tree was
small and wooden peg three inches
long driven in, completely filling the
cavity and hiding for many long years
the cherished lock. An idea of the
length of time that this treasure has
remained in its strange rustic casket
may be gained from the fact that the
depth of the hole, three and one-half
inches, reached slightly beyond the
center of the tree.
The battered end of the pin seemed
to have projected about one-fourth of
an inch. From this it is estimated
that the diameter of the tree when the
pin was driven did not exceed five and
one-half inches. When cut down the
tree measured 30 inches in diameter
at the stump, 20 feet to the first limb
and stood Is feet high; the pin was
located five feet above the ground and
the diameter of the tree at this place
was &c inches. Local authorities say
that cottonwoods in this section grow
about one-half inch in diameter each
year, and according to this the hair has
remained in it's hiding place Al years.
The ground on which the tree stood
was formerly farm belonging to
Jack Furze, pioneer. Much interest
has been excited by this strange in
cident and efforts are being made to
trace the romance that must be con-
nected with the auburn ringlet.

Preparing for Dry Weather.

This past season has shown to many
farmers who scarcely need to have
waited until now to learn the lesson,
the Importance of making preparation
each year for season when the grass
in the pasture will be short, cows
shrink in their milk, calves and young
stock grow smaller, and in both ways
loss will be occasioned that cannot
be made up by good feeding afterward.
When the price of milk and butter was
the highest they had the least to sell.
Those who had ensilage in the silo or
green fodder to cut and feed out were
fattening their pocketbooks, while the
man whose forethought did not come
until afterward was growing poorer.
It is as necessary for the farmer to
prepare for dry, hot summer as for
cold winter, for both are sure to come
every year, even though they some
times are little delayed beyond the
scheduled time.-American Cultivator.

ARE GOOD MEDICINES,
Many Vegetables and Fruits Arc
More EmcaciOus Remedies Than
Drugstore Compounds.

We take the following from an ad-
dress delivered by L. H. Galloway be.
fore the Illinois Horticultural society,"
as published in the National Rural.
We can vouch for many of these vege-
table remedies as being quite as eff
cacious and much more pleasant to
take than the prescription often given
by physicians, and some day we may
add others to the list here given:
Honey is wholesome, Strengthening,
purifying, healing and nourishing. 1

bees-not the glucose kind. Persons
suffering from rheumatism, nervous
diseases and nervous dyspepsia should
eat celery and turnips. Onions are al
most the best nervine known, and will
quickly relieve and tone up WORKOUT
system and are beneficial in cases of
coughs, colds, Influenza, scurvy and
liver complaints. Lettuce eaten by
those who suffer from insomnia is
beneficial. Let those who need iron
for a tonic eat spinach, and let the
drug (iron) alone. Persons suffering
from gravel should eat onions and
spinach. Carrots should be eaten by
those who have asthma. Let those
who need increased perspiration to
relieve overworked kidneys and lungs
eat asparagus. Cranberries are proper
diet for those suffering from erysip-
elias. They should also be applied ex-
ternally. Lemons satisfy and cool the
thirst in fever. Blackberries are
tonic. Blackberry cordial is the prop
er remedy for diarrhea. Persons who
are bilious, who have indigestion and
dyspepsia, conditions for which cal
omel is usually prescribed, should let
the calomel alone and eat freely of
ripe tomatoes. Let those who have
rheumatism and need an aperient eat
pie-plant. The apple, excelling other
fruits in phosphoric acid, is an excel
lent brain food. 1t is aperient and
diuretic, and hence obviates indiges-
ton and dyspepsia and assists kidney
secretion and prevents gravel. It
cleans the mouth. Let persons who use
drugs classed as aperients and laxa-
tives and cathartics stop their use and
eat freely of apples, figs, bananas, pie
plant, tomatoes, onions, Strawberries,
raspberries and blackberries.

Words 1t was now six weeks since
they had set out across the Sink"

but the wild-eyed, sorry-looking

AS "East-Side" lay on the ground

no more than was absolutely neces-

covered or thought he did, that they
cast a shadow against the sky-a tiny
gray shadow that he watched for the
utter lack of anything else to watch.
When the birds flew lower, the shadow
seemed to grow larger and darker.
With a wild whoop he sprang to his
feet, forgetting the value of harbor.
ing his strength as he grasped the
import of that shadow. It was
cloud! Every man sprang up at that
tiny speck and went to work with
white face and unsteady hands. The
speck grew larger and the men
worked harder; every hole or trough
that led to the basin was cleared for
action SO that not one precious drop
might be lost. Their words were few
but kindly as they scraped away,
with one eye on the ground and the
other on the cloud slowly but unmis-
takably growing larger and coming
their way.
During the night those sun-scorched
dreamers dreamed of moist winds,
and rain drops pattering gently until
they made a soaking downpour. But
they had often dreamed that-dreamed
it when their parched tongues hung
out of their mouths and cracked for
dryness. BY this time they had grown
wary; even in their sleep they were
on their guard and not to be beguiled
into believing.
When at last in the early morning
the rain did come, with the first pat
tering drops every man forgot every

CROP. THAT PAYS WELL.
Acres Of Onions Will Give Excel
lent Money Returns.

When good yield and quantity can
be secured, there are few crops that
give a better return than onions. One
advantage with them is that they can
be marketed as soon as matured, or
they can be stored and kept to be
marketed whenever desired.
In growing onions successfully, it is
essential to have good seed, to sow
early, to have rich soil, prepared in a
fine filth and to give thorough cultiva-
ton in good season. A failure in any
one of these will often so affect the
yield or quality of the crop as to deter
mine the question of profit or loss.
1t is an exceptional case to find a
soil that is naturally rich enough to
make a good crop of onions without
the addition of some manure or fer
tilizer; on the other hand, it is an ex-
ception to find soil too rich. The
onion is gross feeder. 4 very heavy
dressing of coarse, fresh manure could
be given and incorporated with the
soil with profit, were it not that in
most cases this kind of fertilizer con-
oeAAAAo ~ AAoAJ "CCO SOCdS d. 4CdCAy W
increase the labor of clean cultivation.
On this account, SO far as is possible,
well-rotted manure should be used,
taking care to thoroughly incorporate
it with the soil on the surface. Wood
ashes are one of the best fertilizers for
this crop, and if there is not enough of
well-rotted stable manure available,
commercial fertilizers can often be
used to good advantage.
Onions grow so near the surface that
the manure should be applied anu
worked in the surface, and for that rea-
son top dressing after blowing will
generally be the best plan. ..
One advantage with onions is that
they may be grown on the same land
for several years without change if
liberal manuring is done, and if clean
cultivation is given the first year this
will be found quite an item.
The very first favorable opportunity
in the spring should be taken advan-
tage of to prepare the ground and sow
the seed as earliness is an important
item. The soil should be prepared ina
fine filth.
A better termination of the seed and
a more vigorous start to grow will be
secured while the cultivation can be
commenced earlier and clean cultiva-
ton be given with less labor if care is
taken to have the soil thoroughly pre-
pared in good filth before the seed is
SOWn, Mark out the rows ten or twelve
inches apart. If the drill is used it will
mark them out, SOW the seed and cover
all at once. One advantage in using
the drill is that the seed will be dis
tributed in the drill rows more evenly
and be covered at a more uniform
depth. It is best to use plenty of seed
so as to secure good stand of plants.
It is better to thin out than to replant.
Give clean cultivation from the start
keeping the soil in good filth until the
crop is naturalist. Louis Republic.
