IT REAPs THE wH1RLwIND.

When land is denuded of its forests. either through the medium of fire the axe and the saw-fnill. it follows that the ground will hold less moisture and the streams become gradually less and less in steady volume until eventually they may become alternately mere tor rents and dry beds This process has changed many fertile populous lands into sun baked plains and sand-swept deserts The United States govern ment owes it to the future to institute a thorough system of forestry in this country.-National Irrigation.

Fowls possess the advantage, to
the owner, that they can be raised in
all climates, cold or hot, wet or dry,
with or without irrigation. And ii
given half a chance the birds will Sc
cure two-thirds of their food by for
aging. In this they have no more con-
science than an American, or any 9TH
er sort of soldier. They, like the sol
diers, will take anything they can
reach, just to keep in practice. They
will forage in field, orchard or gar
den, and in the kitchen, unless the
door is barred. They will eat their
own eggs, which habit they probably
acquired by associating with the cam
nibal races of men. Chickens, espe-
cially. are cosmopolitan, found in all
the ends of the earth where men have
local habitation.-Farm and Ranch.

No Danger of overproduction.

Overproduction of poultry and eggs
need not be feared, for awhile at
least. Some have been deferred from
growing poultry on large scale for
fear of OVERRIDING the thing; but in
this, as in every other branch of food
production, the more there is grown
the more the people will consume.
The average consumption of fruit in
the south, for instance, is ten times,
or probably twenty times, what it
was rs years ago, and solely because
ten or twenty times as much fruit is
grown. The same will apply to eggs
and fowls. And yet prices are as good
all along the line as they were in the
"guid auld days, lang syne." After
awhile there will be ten times as
much produced as now, and the peo-
pie will eat ten times as much az
now.-Farm and Ranch.

wrongly there could not be one more
unsatisfactory.
Never try to confine the fattening
turkeys in an Enclosure of any kind.
because it simply can not be done
satisfactorily with fowls that have
been used to free range during the
whole of the growing season.
The turkeys should have become
accustomed to returning to the farm
buildings at night before this by be-
ing regularly fed.
If this has been done, as soon a.
frosts come to an extent to kill of all
grasshoppers and other insects ON
which the turkey commonly feeds,
the flock will expect to remain about
the building where they get their ra-
tions regularly.
Don't make the mistake that the
novice invariably does OF starting the
turkeys on a full rations of corn, and
particularly new corn, and expect
them to fatten and do well.
If given such treatment the change
is too great for the turkeys diges-
tive system, and the next thing are
turkeys ailing with bowel trouble.
The keeper must aim to keep sick
ness out of his flock, for the simple
reason that sick turkey invariably
is dead turkey.
Start the turkeys on mixture OF
equal parts corn, wheat and oats, and
unless the corn is new and unsea-
soned there will not be much trouble.
But, in order to get the turkeys to
eat such a combination, this mixture
must be placed in pans or similar
dishes, so there will be no chance for
the fowls to pick out the corn and
next the wheat.
After they have once become &C
customed to eating all three grains,
the sorting will be reduced to a mimi
mum, and the grain may be fed by
scattering.
Under this treatment the fatter
the turkeys get the quieter and more
docile they become.
As turkey gets into condition for
market the flesh begins to take on
beautiful golden color, and when
turkeys are fattened on the range in
this manner the flesh is mellow and
sweet, and commands the highest
price on any market.-C. P. Reynolds,
in Chicago Drovers' Journal.

HERE AND THERE.

According to reports made to
Orange Judd Farmer the Irish, or
white, potatoe crop just harvested is
the smallest with possibly one excep-
tion) in ten years.
1t is first-class city property that
will net the owner six per cent. on its
market value. 1t is second-class farm
property that will not net ten per
cent. on its value.
Wheat should never follow wheat,
nor any any small grain. The best
thing for the land is crop of COW
peas after wheat, or sweet potatoes,
or almost any fall crop will do better
that small grain without some DIFF
ferent crop between.
Corn is a carbonaceous food, good
for maintaining bodily heat in cold
weather, by storing up fat. 1t is only
good for growing fowls in small
quantities. Oats, wheat and any
green feed fowls will eat, suit the
purposes of growth better.
sheep make the best use of grain
when it is fed in it's original whole,
dry condition. Masticating their food
thoroughly, the finest weed seeds are
totally fined and destroyed. Finely.
ground grain forms q sticky mass in
the moth, and seems distasteful ia
the sheep.
Eggs and milk are two of the
most valuable food products in na-
ture, not only as luxuries, as they
surely are: but for their intrinsic
value as nutrition. They are equally
good mixed or unrnixed, and are the
chief elements in the richest daintiea
of the table.

AN HONEST NAME.
Story-Knew His Fathers Son
Would Not Lie.

The Honorable Alva Merrill Of
Chillicothe member of the Twenty
fourth District State of Illinois House
of Representatives, tells an interest
ing story:
Some two years ago Mr.. Merrill
gave testimonial stating that Dodd's
Kidney Pills cured his rheumatism.
This, with Mr.. Merrill's portrait, were
published in thousands of papers all
over the United States.
On the train returning home from
Springfield one day last winter were
the Honorable Mr.. Merrill and several
other members. After time one of
them said:
merrill, what time do You get to
Chillicothe?"
This attracted the attention of an
old man who had been apparently
awaiting some identification of Mr..
Merrill and as soon as he heard the
name he rushed up to his seat and
extending his hand said:
"You are Alva Merrill and you
saved my life. I was almost dead
with Lumbago and in an advertise
ment saw your picture and your rec
ommendation of Dodd's Kidney Pills.
1 knew your father and knew his
SON would not lie and therefore de-
cided to try the Pills.
81 am satisfied that Dodd's Kidney
Pills and nothing else have saved my
life and 1 have been waiting this OPP
portunity to thank you personally, for
had / not seen your recommendation
might never have been led to use
this remedy, but, thank God. through
your honest name and the honest
medicine which you so heartily rec
commended, am still alive.
II have been watching you since
You got on the train at Springfield
and thought / recognized your fsce
as the one ! had seen in the adver.
tisement, and as soon as this gentle.
man called you by name knew you
were the gentleman ! had to thank.

PERTAINING TO CHURCHES.

"Young ministers who have not
settled for themselves the funda-
mental questions of the Christian
life should leave the pulpit until they
have" says the Standard baptist,
Chicago).
Bishop Schereschewsky, one of the
missionary bishops of the Protestant
Episcopal church, is engaged in
translating the Scriptures from the
original tongues into the Weu-i diar
lect of the Chinese language.
David Hume, the great infidel phi
losopher, was once charged with in
consistency in attending upon the
ministry of John Brown, Scottish
minister, and he replied: II don't
believe all he says, but he does, and
once q week like to hear a man
who believes what he says"
A recent work on the prayer book
says: Ceremonial observances are
only relative things, and they de-
pend upon time and place and char
acter, and even fashion. Liturgical
customs are, therefore, always and
of necessity in a state of fiux, and
attempts at enforcing uniformity,
whether Anglican or Tridentine, have
served to bring this fact out into
prominence. 1t could hardly be 9th
erwise. for worship that has no free
dom is in imminent danger of be-
coming Journalism.

Every farmer of stockman who inn
proves his stock is making progress
and lettering his condition. The
higher the quality of his animal the
more care and pride he has in raising

the more they are worth to him when
finished in good marketable condition.
Every stockman should have on his
banner the word progress.-Farmers'

WHERE DO THE CLOTHES cor
Disappearances of Garments
in Country Houses.

The tendency of various articles of
dress belonging to guests to disap-
pear in country houses is undeniable,
and there is scarcely visitor who
has not his story of missing coat
or pair of trousers or some similar
article to tell. 1t is never known just
how these things get away, but they
60, and the circumstances of the loss
usually prevent extended investiga-
tion.,
The experience of guest at coun-
try house recently opened his eyes as
to the possible reason for some of
these mysterious disappearances,
says the New York Sun.
"When the valet came to the room
to unpack my bag" he said, II found
that had come of without most
necessary part of my wardrobe. 1
had all my dress suit excepting the
trousers
My host was exactly my opposite
in figure, and there was no hope of
relief from that quarter. None of
the other men stopping in the house
had any extra garments, and as it
was only short time before dinner
the situation looked critical. Then
the valet came to my assistance and
said that he thought he could find a
pair of trousers to fit me. He brought
. pair and they were all right.
"After had tried them ON he told
me that he had another pair that had
braid on the seams, if liked that
better. OF course when I left gave
him twice as large a tip as would
have done had not been indebted to
him for his trousers.
II did not ask him the source Of
his supply, but it occurred to me that
the inexplicable way in which visit
ors' garments disappear at times in
country houses might be explained
by the collections of emergency gar
ments that the Wallets have on hand"

PASSING OF LEGRRDEMAIn.
fhe Occupation Of the Profesrt ,nal
sleight-of-Hand Performer
II About Gone.


One of a group of three men who
were seated in the Waldorf-Astoris
cafe one night lately was amusing
the other two with some clever
sleight of hand tricks performed with
silver dollar that appeared and dis
appeared in quite mysterious man
ner, says the New York Herald.
"Where did you learn that clever
ness?" asked one of the spectators.
I'm Philadelphia, 40 years ago." he
answered, during the days of Signor
Blitz, who was my teacher. was q
very young man then and lived next
door to Blitz. He took fancy to me
and taught me many sleight of hand
tricks that I have not forgotten.
"Blitz was one of the men who helped
to bring juggling to its perfection
and paved the way for the great
prestidigitators who followed him.
snow the profession is in its deca-
dence. 1t has passed it's zenith and
its performances fail to excite to
wonder. It still survives as an adjunct
to other performances, particularly
for the amusement of children, and
that is about all.
"Blitz gave performance, entirely
In legerdemain, six nights in the week
and two matinees. That cannot be

place else, and draw paying houses.
You remember the wonderful per-
formances of Houdin, the Frenchman,
and how he startled the world with
his wonders and dumfounded his spec
tators with his astounding second
sight. Then came Anderson, The
Wizard of the North who drew full
houses all over the country. Herr

Kellar, who has carried mechanical
tricks and deception, by the use of
mirrors, to perfection. There arc
also lot of the smaller fry associ-
ated with variety and vaudeville per-
formances.
"But the fact il that these clever
men fail to excite more than a very
little interest, because their tricks
and their ways and their methods are
all too well known. Their perform
ances have been exploited to the ut
most detail, and our children now
know how tricks that were once con-
sidered absolutely astounding are
performed, and many of them are
clever enough to repeat them in our
parlors.
I'VE know all about the deception
of mirrors, the possibilities of cleo
tricity and lights, what mechanics
can accomplish and the cleverness
of the human mind in performing APP
parent wonders. All of this means
that the profession of the prestidigi-
tator is passing and that he is only
surviving as an adjunct to other at
fractions"
