Of some traveller who had been lost
in the same road. he would have tried
some other route. or, az least have
avoided the pitfalls of which he would
have been warned. To be success
full farmer must know what he il
doing and where he is going. He
must learn from others. lie must

as the sueeessful; must learn how not

without the advice or consent of his
fellows will fail, as surely as the sun
will rise. Hence the necessity for con-
sultation. And this, like everything
else worth doing at all should be done
systematically; and IL can not be done
systematically without organization.
An organization of farmers that
meets once year at some prominent
point may do much good, but they do
not reach those who need help most.
The farmers of every neighborhood
should organize club among them
selves. They will not need public
hall, with rent and fuel and lights to
pay for. \ country school house is a
suitable place to meet and discuss
farming matters. But II would, per-
haps be better to do as the Roman
farmers did two thousand years ago
meet alternately at each others
houses, and. discuss farming opera
tions ON the farms. with the benefit
of object lessons at hand. One thing
is absolutely certain; every farmer
participating in such meetings would
become a better farmer In conse-
auenee. In every neighborhood there
are at least some progressive farmers.
These should take the lead, for as "a
matter of course, no other kind OF
farmers ever will. Even one man may
be instrumental in redeeming n

in earnest. Let the object be Inn
provement in farming, and in farm
life. Get few together at first, and
as their eyes begin to open, others
will follow. After while there Will
spring up laudable emulation that
will benefit every participant We
know one solitary instance where this
course was originated by one man IN
neighborhood where something was
| badly needed to arouse the farmers
from their lethargy. That became,
within five years the leading rural
neighborhood In the county, for high.
class farming. for prosperity, for
moral and social worth, and although
this was nearly twenty years ago, the
neighborhood remains the most de

BAD TIGER A MUSIC LOVER.
strains of the Nioiin Have a sooth-
ing Effect Upon nm Angry
Beast.

A student of animal habits made
some experiments with music at the
London roo. Here is his account of
the effect on a tiger;
"The violin player approached q
sleeping tiger, which was lying on
its side, with feet stretched touching
the cage bars. lie played so softly
that the opening notes were scarcely
audible. AZ the sound rose the tiger
awoke, and, raising his head with
out moving bis body, looked for some
time with fixed attention at the play
er. II remained for some time in a
very fine attitude, listening to the
music. and then making the curious
sound that, in tiger language, does
duty for 'purring,' 1t lay down again
and dozed. The soft music was played
on. while tho great beast lay as If
lulled to sleep.
"rhe violin was then put aside for
the piccoio. Judge OF our surprise,
when, at the first notes Of the new
instrument, the tiger sprang TO his
feet and rushed up and down the
cage, shaking it's head and ears and
lashiug its tail from side TO side. As
the notes became still louder and
more piercing. the tiger bounded
across the cage, reared on its hind
legs and exhibited the most ludicrouf
contrast to the calm dignity and re-
pose with which ii had listened to the
violin.
s'Then came the final and most sue
cessful experiment. The piccoio was
stopped and very soft air played
upon the flute. The difference in cf-
feet was seen at once. The tiger
ceased TO rampage and the leaps
subsidized to a gentle walk, until the
animal came to the bars, and, standing
stiH and quiet once more, listened
with pleasure to the music.
"There are many men," the student
remarks, on summing up his ex-
periments in music at the zoo, 'there
are perhaps many races of men, who
could not detect a discord and would
be alike indifferent to harmony and
its opposite. Yet among the brutes
on which the experiments were tried
the sudden start OF displeasure at a
discord was general from the snakes
to the African elephant"

Consumption of plant Food.

The cash value of the plant food

is just what the wheat will sell for ut
60 cents per busbel, and 10 bushels

CONTROL YOURSELF.
Nothing Ages Woman So Quickly
and surely ms Giving Way 10
Temper and worry.

Never give way to fits of i'll temper.
Every sensible woman ought to be
aware that bad temper and worry will
trace more wrinkles in a week than
hot and cold bathing and massage and
complexion brushes and creams and
lotions can remove in years faithful
application.
Physicians assert that an immense
amount of nerve-force is expended in
every fit of bad temper; that when one
little part of the nervous system is in
juriously affected, the face first records
it. The eyes begin to lose the luster
of youth, muscles become flabby, the
skin refuses to contract accordingly,
and the inevitable result is wrinkles,
woman's fiercest and most insidious
foe.
Indulging in a fit of temper not only
makes a woman old and ugly before
her time, but 1t actually shortens life.
Moreover, every time she loses control
of her temper she unhinges a moral
brain-cell and weakens by several de-
grees her capacity for self-control.
The oftener she permits herself to
indulge in what she believes TO be
righteous indignation, the more fire.
quently she finds such occasions pre-
senting themselves, for life is full of
such Irritating opportunities.
1t is these frequent bursts of passion
that prevent women from growing old
so beautifully that they seem to re-
tain their youthful attractions, and.
like tree, become more amiable with
age.
A mouth that from habit has set
itself in an aggrieved or hard line soon
settles in a grim curve that writes
years of age upon a woman's face, and
imparts a discontented and disagree
able expression which repels all de-
sire for intimacy on the part of her
acquaintances.
No matter how beautiful and brainy
and fascinating the bad-tempered
woman may be, or how lengthy her
bank account, her power is infinitesi-
NAL compared with that of her amiable
sister. And amiability is not only pow.
er; it is mental progression, health
| happiness and long life to ones sell
and to ones friends and family.-N. Y

on the outer edge. In this way she
inclosed the land in incontestable fash
ion. She had a hired man with her,
but she drove the plow. The next
day q small cabin was built for the
hired man. She lived in Guthrie until
tiny house could be built, then took
personal possession. Five years of
residence were required TO perfect the
claim, but at the end of two years the
young woman was ready to return
to the east, and transferred her rights
to a settler, who paid enough for the
claim to give the enterprising pre-
emptor clear profit of more than
81, 900. She had seeded go acres to
cotton and the remainder TO corn and
wheat, and was employing so negro
hands when she transferred the
claim.

On Long Island is a farm bought
by several trained nurses of New
York few years ago. There were
three in the enterprise at first, but
Miss Mary L. Cromwell and Miss
Clara Watkins bought out the third,
who wished TO relinquish her interest.
Their idea is to have home to
which they can retire when old and
unable to continue in active profess
sional life. They rent the farm on
shares to an energetic man, and re-
serve two rooms in the house for their
own occupancy when at liberty to
leave the city. They expect to have
the place free from mortgage within
a few years.
In Georgia is a farm devoted to
mistletoe and holly growing. It is
owned by the Carteledge family, con-
sisting of mother and two daughters,
but the daughters do the farming"
Their negro farm hands would not
plant holly tree for worlds, as they
believe that if they did they would
die as soon as the tree bseame tall
enough to cast a shadow the measure
of their graves.
Last Christmas the sisters found
the trees so grown that they re-
quired thinning out, and the trees
that were removed were sent north
for Christmas trees and brought high
prices, as they were symmetrical and
covered with large, rich bsrries. They
plant the mistletoe berries under the
bark of old oak trees, in the fork or
hollow, where they can GIT hold as
they germinate.
