Pekin, Feb. ia few days ago
Count Won Waldersee wrote to the gen.
erals under his supervision notifying
them to have all their available troops
ready in two weeks for an expedition
lasting 80 days. Today General Chat
fee and General Veyron, the French
commander, received letters asking for
their cooperation and expressing de-
sire to know what forces they can
spare. In commencing his letter to
General Chaffee, Count Won Waldersee
says:
Owing to the unsatisfactory nature
of the negotiations for peace and also
to circumstances rendering such a
course desirable, it will probably be
necessary to resume military opera
lions on large scale, especially toward
the vest
1t is not thought likely that General
Chaffee will agree to such plan with
out instructions from Washington. The
French commander, however, is expect
ed to do so.
Count Won Waldersee's plans contem-
plate offering the command of the ex-
petition in the first instance to Sir
Alfred Gaselee the British commander,
but it is believed that on account of
his recent illness General Gaselee will
inform Count Won Waldersee that he
is unable to accept the command. In
that event it will be offered to General
Veyron, provided the French fall in
with the arrangement, which Count
Won Waldersee believes will be the case.
Such an offer to General Veyron would
have the effect, it is thought, of over
coming the differences which have ex-
listed between the French and Germans,
because it would be demonstration Of
Count Won Waldersee's confidence in
the military ability of the French con-
tingent.
Ere long an announcement is expect
ed that the destination of the proposed
invasion is Sian-fu. 1t is thought that
when it becomes known that the ex-
petition has started the imperial court
will hasten to comply Immediately with
all the demands of the joint note. The
military are much elated at the pros
pect of active service. Many believe
the Chinese army will strive to the
utmost to protect the province of Shen-
81 against invasion.

READY FOR BUSINESS.
Thinks and Is Prepared to Act
at n Moments Notice.

While the farmer can do much to be
ready for the cropping season of the
regular crops grown, yet weather con-
ditions may be such that different
methods of seeding and culture may
be required, and even other crops have
TO be grown than those contemplated
early in the season. The planning
even for such emergencies is. part
of successful and paying farming.
The writer has known, and so have
our readers known, good farm land
which was intended for corn to be per-
mitted to grow up to weeds all sum-
mer because a wet spring prevented
the planting until too late to make
what the owner thought a profitable
crop of corn. Possibly wheat was sown
on the land in the fall, but if some
quick growing forage crop had been
sown on this land, this farmer would
not all the following winter have been
SO short on feed.
Hence, readiness means not only
having definite plans to be pursued il
conditions are favorable, but even
supplementary ones which can be made
to manage existing conditions, though
these be adverse to earlier plans.
Farming is gigantic operation, and
when farmers accede to this fact and
prepare for it accordingly the success
so desired will be much more likely to
be attained. The days of tickling the
soil and gathering a harvest are with
the past. And though agriculture has
not attained the place even among
farmers themselves that its inn
portance demands, yet up-to-date in
telligent methods are being more gen.
orally adopted and the results are be-
ing felt. And knowing that possible
changes in plans may occur, how to
meet them will prove one master of
situations that will increase ones in
terest in farming. The knowing where
to procure seed needed for a supple
mentary crop is part of this prepara-
lion. Farmers should post themselves
as to where seed of the various crops
can be obtained, and as to the farmers
In their section having seed oats, corn,
cowpeas, etc, for sale, and where can
be purchased any and all farm sup
plies. This knowledge enables farm
er to be ready.-Colman's Rural World.

since, where Af-poo-dle, Kiowa boy
of ten, was pupil. He had a hand
some sister with whom an old Indian
was in love. The Indian visited the
school and was most solicitous in his
attentions to Af-poo-dle, giving him
many attractive presents, such as
beads and brass jewelry, that APP
pealed to his vanity. When Af-poo-dle
inquired of the donor what present
he could make him in return, the
willy old Indian unhesita tingly re-
piled: "Give me your sister, Ti-i-ti,
for squaw; me heapee rich; heapee
good brave" The boy promised. He
was the only son, and his word was
law in the wigwam. Accordingly a
few weeks later the Indian led Ti-i-ti
to his tepee to be his squaw. This
was a cold-blooded transaction, as is
usually the case when women are
sold.
The second way is more romantic
and more in accord with the civilized
fashion. In this case the love-sick
swain gets his sister to see the young
squaw he admires and to arrange a
clandestine meeting. If his affection
be returned the squaw keeps her APP
pointment, and he happily leads her
to his wigwam, for a clandestine
meeting constitutes marriage with
these semisavages.
The third and least practiced way
sovors still more of the romantic. In
this case the enamored buck makes a
fastidious toilet in which beads and
brass jewelry of all descriptions fig
ure conspicuously, decorates and
paints in many colors his best steed,
and, like a conquering Alexander,
rides proudly in front of the tepee
where his adored is engaged in some
mental task. He slackens pace as he
nears the wigwam and endeavors to
put his soul into his eyes as he re-
CARDS her. She timidly bushes as she
gazes upon the handsome brave, and
her eyes droop. That is sufficient an
swer for him. That night, after all
have retired, he takes his flute, goes
near her wigwam and pours out a
few doleful notes to express his
hearts yearning. Size comes out to
him, and beneath the midnight stars
they plight their faith. Then she is
proudly led to his wigwam to be
squaw No. 1, or more frequently No.
S. The next morning she is missed
and the whole camp join in mirth-
full search. When found the BRIDE
groom is robbed of all his earthly
possessions, sometimes even the very
Free Press.
