The sale OF thousands OF copies OF 1
ten-cent magazine at one dollar
apiece was very curious happening
at the time OF the Chicago Worlds
Fair. The Cosmopolitan prepared a
Worlds Fair number, contributed to
by many famous writers, aud so thor
oughly illustrated that IL surpassed d
even the most expensive book which
had up 90 that time been issued. In
those days the magazine was printed
from two sets OF plates only, and
when these were worn out IL was inn
possible, without great loss OF time,
to put further editions on the press.
The newsdealers, taking advantage
Of this condition, raised the price OF
The Cosmopolitan's Worlds Fair
number to one dollar a copy. A.few
sales were even made toward. the
close at the phenomenal figure OF 1--we
dollars. Undoubtedly this happening
Is unique In the history OF magazine
literature. The Cosmopolitao will
endeayor to repeat its past success,
with Pan-American Exposition
Number, which will be even hsre
attractive, If possible. than It's
Worlds Fair predecessor. Il
The most famous writer's OF the
country have been invited to take
part in the preparation OF this issue. |
After many days careful study OF all
The wonderful scenes OF the Exposi-
lion, more than hundred photo.
graphs have been prepared, which,
aiken as whole, give a thorough
of the marveIs OF this Ex-
position.
1t is doubtful IL any book. selling at
'orty times the price Of the magazine,
will give any description OF the Fair
which viii approach In interest and
Irtistic value the September Cosmo-
)olitan.
Those who visit the Fair will pre-
erye this number as delightful res-
'rence-bo0k ia the years TO come, and
hose who are unable TO 20 there will
ecure such a comprehensive view Of
Is main attractions as will be worthy

"a friend thinks the Chieftaiu
ought to be more specific in its
charges OF fraud against leading
Cherokee statesmen and others,
and not be SO general in it's re-
marks against the stealings that
have occurred in the past. This
remark is not made after due re-
Election, and is not inspired by an
intimate knowledge of the facts as
they stand out in bold relief all
about US. Ii were easy enough
to be specific and personal but
possibly not wise. When occasion
demands we are generally able to
point out the individual and say
-"thou art the man." but it is not a
pleasan. task to be continually cay
ing: There goes man who got 49,
600 of the sl26, 900 freedman steal,
and here comes a man who sold
his vote for 500, and there sits a
sman who received a $500 bribe for
admitting 16 intruders, and here
comes a senator who sold himself |
for 5000, and standing over there
on the other corner is man who |
burglarized the treasury, and so
on ad infnitum. Don't ask the
.Chieftain to be too specific. We
want to save the country, and dis
courage robbery and corruption in
high places and low places, but
prefer at the same time, to be on |
good terms with our neighbors.

COMFORT AND HEALTH.


There can be NO success on the farm
without health. Financial success won
at the expense Of physical health is
failure. There II an intimate connec-
ton between comfort and good
health. So true il this that comfort
is ranked among the most important
sanitaryprecautions to be everywhere
observed. The fool who undertook to
teach his horse to do without food by
reducing the feed each day by an
amount the horse would not miss,
claimed that his experiment would
have been successful if the horse had
not died before it was complete. This
is the same logic resorted to by those
who claim that hardship and privation
make people hardy, and point to some
robust survivors as proof. They say
nothing of the weaklings who have
succumbed. Most farmers, however,
agree that comfort is . good thing.
prolonging life. curtailing the bills OF
doctors and druggists, and making
life more and more worth living, and.
as soon as they become able, they in
tend to have every comfort suitable
to their condition. But here they
make q mistake as to what consti-
tutes comfort. It may be had in log
hut with . dirt floor, as well as in q
fine residence with all modern con-
veniences. The writer once visited
matched cot in an Irish settlement in
Live Oak county. and spent the night
there. It was midwinter and about
as cold as it ever il, in that
latitude but the little two-room
house was built of poles and
daubed with Q mixture of clay
and grass, covered with the same,
papered throughout with newspapers.
and everything in it scrupulously neat.
Water was brought in troughs from .
spring in the river bank 200 yards
away. The stable, fowl house and
sheep-shed were made of similar ma.
If built of brick and mortar. Com
fort need not be confined to palaces,
but may be enjoyed everywhere, if it
is made to enter into the plans of
construction to begin with. 1t is bet.
ter to build q small house and make
it cosy than q large shell, where q
gust from the north may blow the
lamp out. Water, and wood, and 9TH
er necessaries should be made as con-
venient of access as possible. There
should be no necessity for exposure to
rain or cold in securing these neces-
sary things. In providing personal
comforts our natives are the most
thoughtless. and immigrants from
northern Europe most thoughtful. Go
among the better class of German
farmers anywhere in this country and

THE FARM GARDEN.
rAe ne.t Methods Of Preparing the
Garden for the Cultivation OF
EARLY Vegetables.

" As spring approaches we are all OF
Us more or less interested in the gar
den, We examine with interest the
profusely illustrated seed catalogues,
which are sent broadcast over the
land at this season, and in nine cases
out Of ten, il We have any chance 1t
all to grow few vegetables, We will
sit down and send of an order for
seeds. In fact, we are apt to pay more
attention to buying seed than we do
TO preparing our garden spot and hav-
ing it ready to receive the seed when
they come.
l am constantly asked the question
How shall prepare my garden this
spring" what fertilizer to you
think would be best to use?" As many
others are probably asking the same
question I shall try to answer 1t a.
best l may, in the present article.
This matter OF preparation il most
important if our garden is to be a sue
cess. It should bsrdeeply plowed, or
otherwise worked up as soon as pos
sible, being careful to do the work
only when the soil is dry enough to
crumble, otherwise we may do more
harm than good. 1t is an excellent
plan, as soon rs this blowing is COM
pleted, to give the whole garden an
application broadcast, Of acid phos-
phate and muriate or potash at the
rate Of 1000 pounds per acre, using
500 pounds acid phosphate to 200
pounds muriate of potash and thor
oughly working it in on the surface.
II nitrate Of soda is to be used to sur
ply the nitrogen, it should be applied
at planting time and again after the
vegetables are up, as it il very soluble
and liable to leach away during heavy
rains. II cotton seed meal is used f'I
this purpose it should be applied two
weeks before you are ready to plant.
to prevent injury to the seed. We
have also found it nm advantage 20
make q second application of meal,
when nitrate Of soda could not be se-
cured, ON some vegetables, such as
cabbage, beets, lettuce and turnips,
after they are up and have started
grow. Dried blood may also be ap-
piled in the same manner as the meal,
using about one half the quantity If
it is high grade.
If it. il. difficult to get the above
materials complete high-grade fer
tilizer may be used with equally good
results. These early vegetables re-
quire considerable potash. and : fer.
