mrss AsHBY NOT A SOCIALIST.

Ml60 ASk1o NS4 A 6SS4&AAAS@ A.
 Miss Ashby-now Mrs. Alfred Newth Nacfadyen--it seems was very much dis esveed by an accusation which appeared n The New York Journal to the effect that she Is a socialist. She is very far from it. as the term is used in the United States. She Is all that is good and true and loyal, as all who know her must feel she has a heart big enough to take In all humanity.
 Mrs. Macfadyen has written the fol- lowing circular letter to many of the leading papers of the United States: Editor The Advertiser:
 My Dear Sir-It has been brought to my notice that an interview appeared with me in The New York Journal last Mon day, the 14th inst, in the headlines of which I was described as a socialist. l might say that the interview was more In the nature of a notice, as l dechned to give the reporter any Of my facts or plans before had been to Washington, and 1t is full of inaccuracies and miscon- ceptions. gave him no authority to call me a socialist and as it may give rise to serious misunderstanding, l shall be glad if you will insert this letter In your paper The term in America IS In the minds of some identified with revolu- tionary measure with which l nave no sympathy. If to desire for every man. woman and child the fullest development of which they are capable, ana tnat liberty of thought and action which Is America's proudest boast; if to look for ward to the day when all will be able to serve the community in happiness ana plenty is to be e socialist, then l might be called one. But the term Is so widely misunderstood and misrepresentea. that should not authorize any one to use It about me in the connection in which IL was used in this cs-calied interview. Not only have they got my name wrong put, on my asking the reporter not to repeat the assertion that 1 was to marry, or had married, a Boer while my husband is an officer in the British army, and secretary to the Prime Minister at Cape Town, the intelligent reporter, compositor or proof reader turned the word "Boer Into brewer This will show you Of how little value the notice was.
 Believe me to be,
 Very truly yours,
 Irene M. Ashby-Macfadyen.

Economy in Shelter.

Economy in the use of farm tools IS
getting the most use with the least
wear and breakage. How many costly
farming tools such as chltivators, disc
harrows, self-binders, rakes and plows
are setting out in the field or sticking
in the ground where last used, and
how many more are driven to the farm
barnyard and left standing there where
the farmer, hired man or boy un-
hitched from them when he used them
last, there to be unsightly objects of
wastefulness all winter? Tools left
out exposed to the elements in winter
are not ready for use in spring when
wanted Besides, many valuable tools
are almost useless when treated in
this way year or two which might
be made to last a number of years
longer with proper care. Now who re-
ceives the benefit of this carlessness?
Not the farmer. surely. But it is an
i'll wind that blows nobody good and
his method of caring for farm tools
blows profit into the Golfers of the
manufacturers. The Wholesale and
retail merchants and agents all make
a profit on the farm tools. 1t has been
said, and truly, too, that more than
half of the farm tools rust out instead of
wearing out. How many farmers will
have to visit the sand bank to scour
his plow before using it in the spring
when two minutes and little axle
grease rubbed on in the fall when put
ting it away would save all this time
securing?
This leakage on the farm could be
stopped 1t takes but little money in
the hands of man who has but some
knowledge of carpetering to build a
convenient shelter for all the tools
used on an ordinary sized farm We
cannot afford to let our tools be ruined
from the lack of shelter.-Farmers'

His Stomach Ke,noxed.

A remarkable surgical operation was
performed several days ago on Albert
Hansdorf, German, living on Cherry
street. Hansdorf had been hurt in
ternally while at work in machine
shop. AT Erlanger Hospital, after
long study of the case, DR.. Berlin,
with Hansdorf's consent, decided upon
heroic measures. The whole stomach
was removed from the mans body,
and his entrails were put upon mar
BILE table. where they were worked
upon. The surgeons discovered the
wrong and cut several entrails from
the stomach, and, washing what was
left thoroughly, placed it back in the
mans body.
The patient was then restored to
consciousness. He remained in crit
ical condition for several days, but is
now improving, and will in all proba-
bility recover.-Chattanoo Times.

Weed the Flock,

Poultry specialists advise the closest
adherence to the law of the survival
of the fittest. Culling the young stock
is quite essential in the profitable
raising of flock. 1t never pays to
try to raise weak, sickly chicks; Kill
them and get them out of the way as
soon as possible. The most profit is III
raising the best, therefore, we believe
it pays best to Gull close and early one
gains in more than one way; these
stunted chickens rarely ever make
gain sufficient to give profit over and
above the food consumed and they are
very apt to contract diseases and give
them to the others which would never
get hold on the flock if they had
been culled out. Then the best of the
chicks have a better show in their abb
sence, having more room in the GOODS
and a better chance for foragjng in the
day time-Farm, Field and Fireside.

A New Method of Weed Killing.

DR.. r. Heinrich professor of agri-
cultural chemistry and director of the
agricultural experiment station in
Rostock, Germany. recently published
the r, 'ults of interesting experiments
in the killing Of weeds. 1t has long
been known that many of the weeds
which infest oat and barley fields
could be destroyed by a sprinkling of
a solution of vitriol, without harming
the crops. Heinrich found that the
same result could be obtained by the
use of solutions of various manure
salts, such as saltpeter, sulphuric acid,
etc. The strength of the solution may
vary between Is and 40 per cent, and
from 100 to 200 quarts should be used
per acre. In favorable weather, re-
suits will follow within two hours. The
weeds wither away completely. This
solution cannot be used advantageous
ly in the case of vegetables, as it does
them as much harm as the weeds.

horseman is vastly better acquainted
with the blemishes of horses than he

which the horse is put. These three
reasons are sufficient to account for
the production of a mass of inferior
animals which do not meet the eye of
the critic until they are offered for

Dealers by long experience and con.
stand observation have learned to a

growing. For one thing there is too
much mixing of blood in this country.
1t is not at all an uncommon thing to
detect in the same horse traces of
three or four different breeds, repre-
senting as many distinct classes of
horses.
The expense of growing horse that
nobody wants does not greatly differ
from that of producing one that fills
the real need, and fills it SO we'll that
the prospective buyer is ready to pay
good money for it. The difference is
not so much in the added expense for

men who do the breeding. AS with

ten he will succeed. If, however, he
undertakes to produce as highly or
ganized an animal as the horse with

cases out of ten, he will fail.-New
