AUTHORITY ON SEED GRAIN.

1AoAAAoi\1I ON oEED a
Mr.. Jas. D. BROWN,
Hope, N. D.
The two samples of wheat sent are es-
sentially one as good as the other.
Neither one of them are exactly strong,
that is there are only about 7 to 10 Der
cent OF the grains in the sample which
produce normally strong plants. The
rest OF the plants which grow from each
sample are somewhat injured, that is
make a slow growth. Sample No. l has
2 per cent of dead grains in it and fully
80 per cent of grains which are SO weak
as to be unreliable.
Sample No. 2 has 3 per cent of dead
grains and about the same percentage
of unreliable grains. I think it would
pay you to get stronger wheat than
either one Of these samples. If weather
conditions should be poor at seeding
time, you might have a very weak stand
from these samples OF seed.
The sample of flax contains 40
per cent of dead grains and over 30 Der
cent of those which do grow are very
weak. You cannot afford to use it for
seed purposes.
Yours very truly.
II. L. BoLLEY, Per M.
Mr.. Brown states that one lot of
wheat was threshed from stacks which
were put up early in the season, and
were apparently in goodcondition. The
other lot was wheat raised on new land
and threshed moderately early from the
shock. This fax was threshed quite
early in the season and was apparently
in good order,

DANIEL WEBSTER'S FARM.
How the Statesman Came to Purchase
the Estate.

How the Statesman Came to Purchase
the Estate.
1t was about the year 1880 that Dan
lei Webster was driving from the Cape
to Boston in n chaise with his wife.
Going through Marshfield by the road
nearest the shore, he was attracted by
the beauty of this locality. He stopped
at the John Thomas residence for en-
tertainment, and he inquired of Mr..
Thomas If he would be willing to sell
his farm and house. 1t is said he had
often stopped there, and there was
warm friendship between them.
Mr.. Thomas family had all been roy
alists and left for Nova Scotia during
the revolutionary war. Afterward they
returned, but part of their estate was
contiscated and the remainder had di-
minished in value and money was
scarce with them. Mr.. Thomas did not
take long to consider but named his
price. which Mr.. Webster accepted, say
ing the family could continue to live
there the same as ever.
This agreement was entered into, and
Mr.. Webster and his family came and
went at their pleasure each year, the
pleasantest relations existing between
the two families. When deaths and
marriages broke up the Thomas family,
Mr.. Webster somewhat enlarged the
house, building library addition,
which his daughter Julia assisted in de-
signing. He also beautified the grounds
greatly and enlarged the farm till he
owned over 1,500 acres. This absorbed
the entire adjoining Winslow estate.
About half a mile away, down a long
grown lane, is the hallowed spot
known as the Winslow and Webster
burying- ground. Here lie many whose
history we read in a nations eyes"
also few who had neighboring farms.
and others whose interest in the spot
made 1t wished-for burial place, Ade-
laide Phillips and the late Stephen NJ.
Allen being among the number. In the
center is the Winslow lot, inclosed by
an iron railing. Near by stands hand
some monument erected to the memory
of the first settlers, those whose head
stones had become broken or effaced.
The Webster lot contains the remains
of the entire Webster family. Simple
white marble stones mark the graves
of each member of the family. To this
spot was borne the body of Daniel Web.

gathered to pay their last token of re-
spect to the distinguished statesman

Uses of Liquid Air.

AS there Is reason to believe that a
syndicate has been formed for the pur-
pose of floating a limited company os-
tensibly for the commercial utilization
of liquid air, one or two observations
on this interesting substance may be
timely.
In the judgment of the most promin-
ent authorities on the subject, the COM
mercal use of liquid air is not an eco,
nomic possibility. 1t is true that large
number of suggestions have been made
pointing to its adaptability for different
purposes. 1t has been proposed as an
explosive, and liquid-air cartridges
have actually been used with indiffer-
ent results) for blasting. Mr.. Tesla has
been credited with its employment for
increasing electrical conductivity, and
thereby transporting electric energy for
thousands of miles without loss. LIQUID
air, too, has been suggested as a mo-
tive power, a preservative, a caustic for
medical purposes, and for variety of
other singular employments.
1t has to be borne In mind, however.
that hquld air Tor power purposes costs
200 times as much as steam, requiring
200 degrees (FahrenheiO of frost for its
production, and that in any case it is
expensive to make and most difficult of
preservation. No doubt it excited great
hopes on its entry into the world as
manufactured product, but the better
informed now regard it as destined to
relapse into the position of mere
scientific uriosity.-London Express.

as transformations as a day laborer. He
came to Bloomington in 1886 from New
Jersey. He was without means, but
opened a wagon shop. In 1S43 he
bought the land on which the Peoples
Bank Block nov stands for $T5 and a
wagon. Twenty years later he sold
one-half of this tract for $4,000.
For a half century he worked at his
trade Of pillow maker, and has rarely
missed day at the bench. Rigid econ
omy with constant activity of mort
cages has brought him a million or
more. He has steadfastly refused to
encourage any public enterprise and
has been deaf to all solicitations to con-
tribute to the city's welfare. He pre-
fers to live in humble home, without
servants, and in primitive simplicity
He is without children, and his wife is
as old as himself and shares his eccen-
trio and economical ideas.

ESSENTIALS OF AN ORATOR.
Senator Hoar Advises Latin or Greek
foundations as Training.

Senator Hoar Advises Latin or Greek
Translations as Training.
In the opinion of Senator Hoar, the
two most important things that a
young man can do to make himself u
good public speaker are:
/. Constant and careful written
translations from Latin or Greek into
English
2. Practice in a good debating So
ciety.
1t has been said that all the greatest
parliamentary orators of England are
either men whom Lord North saw, or
men who saw Lord North--that is, men
who were conspicuous as public speak
ers in Lord Norths youth, his contem-
poraries and the men who saw him as
an old man when they were young
themselves, says the Senator In Serb
ners. This would include Bolngbroke
and would come down only to the year
of Lord John Russell's birth. SO we
should have to add few names, espe-
cially Gladstone, Disraeli, John Bright
and Palmerston. There is no great
parliamentary orator in England since
Gladstone died. | once a good many
years ago looked at the biographies of
the men who belonged to that period
who were famous as great orators In
the Parliament or in court, to find If
could the secret of their power With
the exception of Lord Erskine and Of
John Bright, l believe every one of
them trained himself by careful and
constant translation from Latin or
Greek and frequented good debating
society in his youth.
Brougham trained himself for ex-
temporaneous speaking In the Specula-
tive Society, the greater theater of de-
bate for the University of Edinburgh.

Primitive Agricultural Methods.

There Is no market in Southern Chi
ma for American harvesting machinery.
The agricultural land Is divided into
small holdings, many Of which are not
over an acre In size, and very few rum
ming over ten acres. Every available
inch Of land Is under cultivation, aud
the planting and reaping Is all done
by hand; where plows are used they
are Of home manufacture and are as
primitive as those Of Biblical times.
The majority Of the peasantry live at
the rate of from two to five cents 2
day. and even If they could afford to-
purchase modern American farm
machinery there would be no room to
use II. The nearest thing to such ma
chinery Is tanning mill. which Is cas-
lily constructed by the ingenious Chi
naman. The grain Is either trod Quit
of the straw by the water buffaloes orr
whipped over an open tub. Even II anu
entire village should combine to buy AM
American thrashing machine. ii would
be used but once, as ii would be con
sidered too wasteful both in the way
it mangles the straw and the grain anc
in its expensive upkeep. In Southern
China there are no horses except ths
diminutive China pony, and, as the az
riculturaI country is mostly fiat Their
Is no way TO utilize water power. A
