- no idle comparison. There is no
stronger nor more effective health-giying
element than sunshine. Men grow strong
because they are in the sunlight and pure
air more than women. Girls make a great
mistake in shading their faces from the
sun. Nothing is more attractive than a
bare-headed girl-whose face is tanned by
the sun and whose hair is blown about by
the pure health-giving air. She needs not
feel herself less beautiful with her sunlit
face than her sister who has grown pale by
exposing her face to no stronger ray than the
the gas light of the ball room and social gath
ering. Because girls take too little exercise,
because too little sunshine strikes their faces
and too little fresh air reaches their lungs,
they are the helpless prey of female trou-
bles. They suffer at the coming of woman
hood when the only reason is that they
have not given themselves chance to grow
before the coming of womens functions

The question of root tubercIes on
Iegaminous plants is one that has COM
bined with 1t several other questions.
One of the most important of these
questions is whether or not plants can
draw food from the depths of the soil
II has generally been held by inves-
tigators that the deep roofing legumes
draw their food largely from far below
the surface layers OF soil. More recent
ly good many thinkers on these sub
Jects have expressed the belief that
the lower roots do nothing but take up
water and that the food supplies are
drawn from the surface soil. Some
experiments with alfalfa last year in
Italy seem to initiate against this
idea. The result of these experiments
showed that the alfalfa roots were
abundantly provided with root tu-
bercles the first year of cultivation.
Very few were found on the roots of
tWo-year-old plants, and none at all
on three-year-old plants. The expert
mentors infer that the plant makes
use of atmospheric nitrogen only dur
ing its first years growth, or until
the roots have obtained sufficient
length to obtain the necessary nj
trogenous food materials from the
deeper soil.

The municipality of Vienna has un-
der consideration project for the dis
posal and utilization of the sewage of
the city which at present is discharged
into the Danube. In England so-called
sewage farms are now quite common
in connection with the smaller cities,
and the plan has been adopted by both
Berlin and Paris, but to all of the sys-
TENS in use there is more or less objec-
ton, and even with the best of them
there is much room for Improvement
The scheme under consideration in
Vienna consists in the application of
a method developed by Herr Nobel of
Posen, by which the liquid part of the
sewage will be utilized for the double
purpose of irrigation and enrichment.
1t is intended to convey the sewage in
pipes to an extensive plain of poor land
which suffers from lack of water, due
to inadequate rainfall, over which it is
not to be carried in trenches, but the
surface of the land is to be irrigated
by sprinkling the sewage water over
1t. 1t is said that by this plan the land
will not be oYer-saturated, as it fire.
quently is on the sewage farms at Ber-
lin and Paris. The system is stated to
have been already in use at Possn with
satisfactory results.

Very Intensive FORAGE culture.

A report of some very intensive op-
erations in agriculture comes from San
Bernardo, in Spain, relative to the
production of maize, barley and oats
for forage. The crop was grown un-
der irrigation on a field of about seven
and a half acres. The field had re-
ceived 10000 pounds of barnyard
manure, 1.465 pounds of Thomas Stag,
LOO pounds of nitrate of soda, and 374
pounds of superphosphate per hectare
about two and a half acres). The
corn grew to an average height of over
13 feet and yielded about 40 tons of
forage per acre during favorable sea-
son. The corn was sown early in April
and cut about August LIST. The second
crop of corn was then grown and har-
vested by November LIST. Following
this, barley or oats was sown, which
was cut for green forage the following
spring, before the preparation of the
land for the first corn crop.

Prof. Clinton D. Smith, after five
years investigation of the milk cues
ton, publishes the following conclu-
sions: Il. A cow yields as rich milk
as heifer as she will as a mature
COW. 2. The milk is as rich in the first
month of the period of lactation as it
will be later, except perhaps during the
last few weeks of the milk flow, when
the cow Is rapidly drying off. 8. There
is little difference in seasons as to the
quality of the milk. While the COWS are
at pasture the milk is neither richer
nor poorer, on the average, than the
milk yielded when the cows were on
winter feed. 4. The milk of a fair
sized dairy herd varies little in compo-
sition from day to day, and radical
variations in this respect should be
viewed with suspicion"

Famous Novelist Called Europe a Ro-
nance and America Humdrum.
Here is an interesting letter. in the
possession of a well-known autograph
collector, that, according to the Phil
adelphia Record, Fenimore Cooper
wrote to his publishers in 1881:
Il hope you will be wrong in antic-
ipating bad reception for The
Bravo l cannot tell you much of its
reception in Europe, though Gosselin
says it is very decidedly successful in
France. America is, of all countries,
one of the least favorable to works of
the imagination. In Europe, or,
rather in England, where there has ex-
listed a necessity of accounting for
some success in the very teeth of their
prejudices and wishes, it has been the
fashion to say that no writer ever en-
joyed so favorable an opportunity as
l, because l am an American and a
sailor. AS to the sailor part of the
business, it is grossly absurd; for what
advantage has an American sailor over
any other? They know the falsehood
of what they say in this respect, for I
get 5000 pounds for a nautical tale
that shall celebrate English skill to-
morrow.
For myself, / can write two Euro
pean stories easier than can write one
American. Why, Europe itself is a
romance, while all America is a mat
ter-of-fact, humdrum, common-sense
region from Quaddy to Cape Florida"

some Opinions of Royalties Not Intend
ed for Publication.
A London paper gives an interesting
account of an album owned by the
Queen of Greece, to which many royal
personages have contributed. Some of
the opinions expressed in the book are
decidedly amusing. To the question,
What is your idea of happiness?" the
King of Greece replied: Always to
have a sovereign without a crown"
The King of Sweden was asked what
was his conception of real unhappi-
ness,and answered that he could think
OF nothing worse than tight shoes, a
corn and heavy foot on it. When
Edward VII. was requested to reveal
the person against whom he bore the
greatest grudge, he answered: "The
man who insists upon pointing his
umbrella at me and exclaiming
There he ISL" The Emperor of Aus
tria gave different answer to this
query, and said he could think of no
person whom he disliked more than
the man whose customary greeting
was Good heavens, how old you
look!" The Empress of Russia an
swered the same question as follows:
For me there is no person more dis
agreeable than the woman who con-
Biders her children the healthiest in
the world and who looks upon other
children as being very intelligent, but
fearfully weak and delicate"

How long a time after mating are
the eggs fertile? This is much dis
cussed question. Experiments seem
to show that few eggs are fertile two
days after mating, but that the best
results are obtained a week after mat
ing. That is, the eggs that are laid
about a week after the male is put
into breeding pen prove to be more
generally fertile than at any time be-
fore that This was when the male
was kept continually with the females
