when you say mo one should think Of
sowing COW peas on good soil you
are way way off. They are worth
many times their cost in the way
they improve the mechanical condi-
ton of the soil, and l have seldom
seen much of our good lands in the
east that are not somewhat i'm
proved by the addition of little
nitrogen. l sow COW peas on every
inch of good land, as well as poor,
that l can find available for this
plant during it's season. just now
I am clearing up rough, rocky,
brush pasture that is too tough to
pillow, so with an extra heavy cut
away am chewing it up and seed
ing it thickly with cow peas" What
we meant was that on the average
farm it is better to grow corn or
some similar crop when the soil is
already good enough to grow it. Put
the COW peas on poor land and
make it good enough to grow what
you need!--Rural New Yorker.

DOCILE FARM TEAMS.
Only Way to Insure Horses from Run
away Habit Is Never to Let Them
Get Started.

Generally speaking, no one feature
will add more to the value of horse
or team than the fact that they are
free from the runaway habit. The only
way to insure keeping them from this
is never to allow them to get started.
Because a team runs away once is no
reason that it is spoiled, but it indi-
Gates that the driver has got to use
something more than ordinary caution
in handling them thereafter. Let a
team get away two or three times,
and it means that driver will be as
Stunning considerable risk every time
he takes the least liberty with them.
There is no one characteristic that q
farm team can possess that will make
them more valuable than the fact that
they can be trusted, and, on the other
hand, there is nothing that will detraot
more from their practical value than
to feel that they are ready to run on
the least pretext. Farmers have fire.

second the Drovers' Journal in its po-

full with team during the first two or
three years of their driving, the dan

years Is reduced to a minimum; but
there is one thing that must always
be borne in mind, that, no matter how

EPILEPSY IN PIGS.
This Disease Indicates Imperfect Nu-

Nervous System.

Blind staggers, or, in medical par
lance, epilepsy, in pigs, is quite COM

causes. In whatever way brought on.
the condition indicates imperfect nu-

TEN. This may be brought about by
unduly stimulating food. as constant
feeding upon cornmeal, and confine-
ment. A wet, uncomfortable bed oft n
leads to the disease in young pigs. OF
course too close breeding develops
this disease. The symptoms of an at
tack of epilepsy are sometimes diff
ferent in different animals. Some
times the pig stands and froths at the
mouth. then, after a few moments,
staggefs and falls, as il in fit. After
lying awhile, it RECEIVERS and seems In
its normal condition again, perhaps for
several days, when symptoms will oc-
cur again, often proving fatal. Some
times the pig forces his nose into a
corner of the pen and stands trembling
for few moments, and suddenly darts
around the pen few times and falls
motionless upon the floor. When
symptoms of staggers are developed in
small pigs they should be given good,
dry bed, and 10 or ~ drops of chloride
of iron twice a day for few days in
their food. AS preventive, when
pigs show symptoms Of disease, with
hold the food mainly and feed sulphur
and powdered charcoal for few days.
Supplying dry, comfortable quarters,
and feeding the young pigs with good
supply of milk and occasionally mess

good, as containing a large propoI-
ton OF oleaginous matter. A few cab
bages, grass and oatmeal are helpful
as a varied diet AS in many other
things, due regard to that condition
that seems to prevent the disease is
better than to be obliged to resort to
the various remedies, and then, per-
haps, fail to restore the animal to
health.-Barnum's Midland Farmer.

In Praiae nj Alfalfa

A railroad official says OF alfalfa
sour farmers, chiefly in Nebraska, de-
pend almost solely upon it to feed, and
abundant cropfs necessary. The first
crop is enormous and acreage has been
largely increased, which reflects its
Importance. Horses work well on al
falfa feed and require very little grain.
Cattle thrive and fatten quickly; and
only have to be finished with grain be-
fore shipping to market. The most i'm
portant feature Of alfalfa lies in the
fact that it has made hay-eat ting an
imal of the hog. Nebraska raises two
crops on unirrigated land, and as many
as four crops on irrigated soil. The
former cantains about IS per cent.

The Black Hills, where the red man made
his last stand against civilization, was named
in Indian parlance Pa-Ha-Sap- Pa-the
Home Of the Gods. The region is justly So
called.
The hills from the distance appear deep
blue; at closer view they are black, because
of the fir growth covering them. The seen
cry is wonderful! The tumultuous streams
hurting themselves down the hillsides are
abundantly stocked with trout. The scien
fist would find paradise there, the geolo-
gist a heaven, the miner an earth full OF pre-
July, 1874, near Custer City, by MIR. N. Ross,
chief scout of Gen. Custer. The Black Hills
are said to be the richest klondike America
has yet discovered.
In the midst of the Black Hills is situated
Hot Springs, the Carlsbad of America. The
weather is summary the larger part OF the
year-always pleasant and healthful. As a
health resort Hot Springs is exceptional.
The health.giving properties of its seventy
five springs are phenomenal.
Sightseers from all over the world are
learning of the interest this locality holds,
and every year the hotels entertain larger
lists of visitors.
The Chicago 4 Northwestern takes the
traveller in Pullman sleeper to Buffalo Gap,
where change is made for the short ride
into the Hills to reach Hot Springs.
South of Buffalo Gap is the Cheyenne
river which has cut it's way between
banks of shalc. In this shale, once the bed
OF an ocean, are fossils, petrified fish and
snakes, and myriads of other animal and
vegetable things foundin the bottom of a sea.
Horseshoe curve, near Hot Springs, is
world-famous by now. Crystal cave is also
becoming familiar in the minds Of tourists.
OF the town of Deadwood every American
and many European has heard.
After leaving Deadwood one enters Spear
fish canyon, at the bottom Of which twists
and foams the Spearfsh river. The river
has deep fall in one place, making one Of
the prettiest cascades one would care to
see. And, by the way, if one is partial to
waterfalls, the Cheyenne river falls should
not be missed. Spearfish canyon, thirty-two
miles long, is most impressive freak of ma
ture.
Battle mountain, the Wind cave, the
Onyx cave, the many queer,shaped rocks
that are known by various names, the gulch-
es and little lakes and rivers, the famous
Dakota Bad Lands," the big geyser at
Cascade Springs, are all wonderful, beau
tiful, inspiring, and interesting. The most

SOME LONELY PLACES.
Island Homes Where the News of the
World Ii News n Month After
the Event.

The lighthouse keepers at Eddy
stone were IL days late in learning
the news of the peace in South At
RIGA, but they may be quite early
compared with ST. Kilda, which may
have still to learn that the war is
really over. 1t is strange to think
that, in this age of telegraphs and
telephones, when messages are
flashed round the world in less time
than it takes cabman to drive from
st. Paul's to Charing Cross, there are
still lonely parts of the empire many
months removed from civilization, SO
isolated that no whisper of great
events reaches them until they have
taken their place in history, and are
all but forgotten in the great world.
More remarkable still is it that in
these days of Imperialism there
should be, even In an empire which
shelters one-fourth of the human
race, whole community quite for
gotten, says st. James Gazette.
Yet, forgotten empire" is much
more than mere phrase. There is
pathos as well as glory in empire.
The entire population of q lonely
island in the Pacific, over which the
British flag flies, was found two or
three years ago to be ''close to
death" through starvation. For nine
months not ship had called at the
Palmerston islands, and. though the
heat killed all the cocoanut trees and
dried up every plant and vegetable
which could be used as fruit, the peo-
pie of the islands were cut off from
the rest Of the world, and from food
supply of any kind. Somehow, in the
shipping arrangements which en-
brace Palmsrston islands, the place
had been forgotten, and the situa-
ton of the people had become des-
perate when the relief arrived. The
owner of the island had died the day
before, and the whole population was
starving when a calling vessel, hap
PLY named the Empire, brought them
food.

historic piece Of news, have never en-

Queensland coast. For months they
were forgotten" and the supplies
which should have reached them in
August arrived at the end of October
with the result that the unhappy
men, 20 in number, were found al.
most delirious from lack of food. The
food supply of Percy island is sup
posed to be delivered once a quarter
but no food arrived at the island
after the first week in June, 1900, un-
til a British sloop CHANGED to pass in
October. The islanders managed to
hail the vessel, which left behind an
ample supply of provisions, and re-
minded the Queensland government

istence it had forgotten.
