The New York Tribune Farmer.

THE TRIBUNE FARMER has no
superior anywhere in this wide world as
a publication for farmers and their fami-
lies 1t does not, to be sure, tell how
to extract green cheese from the moon
but everything worth knowing about the
theory or practice of farming is treated
by men recognized as experts In their
various lines. But THE TRIBUNE
FARMER does more than supply such
valuable information. 1t keeps the far
mer in touch with all the latest i'm
provements by text and pictures, and
pays special attention to the work be-
ing done at agricultural colleges all over
the country. Besides all this 1t has fea-
lures to interest the women folk. The

STANDS BY KITCHENER
Inventions OF RumOr MOngers 'Dis-
missed With Contempt"

London, March 14.-Rumor mongers ar.
profiting by the lack of detailed informa-
ton respecting the military situation III
the Transvaal They are repeating silly
inventions about the recall of Kitchener
the return of Lord Roberts to South Africa
and the promotion Of French as COM
mander in South Africa. These reports
are dismissed with contempt by officials
and military men as even more prepOs
ferrous than the assumption that Delarev
will re-establish the siege of Mafeking
or make a dash for johannesburg.
Lord Salisbury has decisive influence
In determining the selection of the COM
mander of the forces in South Africa and
Lord Kitchener has been his favorte gen
eral from the outset. Information is re.
quired respecting the column which Lord
Methuen expected to join when he set out
from Vryburg, but otherwise there has
been no apprehension Of serious reslts
from the recent defeat, which was mainly
due to a panic among the unseasoned
.yeomanry. 1t seems probable, however,
that the number Of Beers under De Wet
who broke through the British bIockhouse
lines was larger than official reports in
dictated and that a junction may have
been effected with Delarey.

COULDN'T STOP HIM
Elements Outdone by Weather-Man
Outram. -.
MAKES A TRIP TO PHILADELPHIA
To See Fine Map Such as Will Be
Installed in New Chamber
of Commerce.

T. S. Outram, section director of the
department of agriculture and local OBJ
server of the weather bureau, has re-
turned from Philadelphia, where he Wis
tied the Bourse, at the suggestion of his
hcief, to study the weather map, main
tanned there by the department. II E:
The greater part of Mr.. Outram's two
weeks vacation was used in an endeavor
to get somewhere. He arrived in Phila-
delphia one Monday morning, when he
should have been there the preceding Fri
day night. For years Mr.. Outram has
twisted Boreas and Eurus and the rest of
them about his fingers like wax, He has
heaped indignities upon the head Of HENS
and other, gods, not excepting Jupiter
Pluvius, just to show the public what a
grasp he had on the weather situation
~. Mercury tipped it off to Pluvius that a.
weather man was going to travel. Mes
sengers were dispatched ahead, and when
Mr.. Outram arrived at Rockford, Pa, on
the Baltimore & Ohio, before him flowed
shood fifteen feet above the tracks. The
conductor essayed to conduct the weather,
observer back to Connellsville and thence
over another branch to Baltimore, but
before the astonished eyes Of the meteo-
biological expert the tracks gave way,
leaving him between the devil and the
deep murky sea. Mans power prevailed,
however, and then Mr.. Outrami finally
reached Philadelphia.
Mr. Outram asked for large weather
map for the new Chamber of Commerce
some time ago. Hetwas ordered to Phila-
delphia to take note of the, fine points in
the making and setting of the map there.
The department has promised that as soon
after July 1 as the appropriation becomes
available, the map will be forwarded by
the manufacturers T. y
In Philadelphia on either side of the
large map is bulletin board which con-
tains weekly climate and crop reports
from every state. The government will
furnish the map the reports and an artist
to draw the daily isotherms, isobars,
state Of weather, rainfall and other data.
The building ,. committee must provide
the boards and the frame.
This map appears like a painters can
vas on which Is placed the outlines of a
regular map Of the country. This is COW
cred with glass, which is sufficiently
rough to take chalk. The Chicago Board
Of Trade has installed only the map the
Minneapolis committee has not r deter
mined details.
| Mrs Outram accompanied Mr. Outram
| to Chicago, where she remained. Mr..
lOutram met his mother in Baltimore and
! went across to .Easton, Maryland, the old
family home.

.DELAREY GRATEFUL
Theory Accounting for the Liberia
ton of Methuen.
BoER HUMANE AND cHIvALRoUs
Besides, His Helpless Wife and
Children Were Treated Kindly
by Lord Methuen.
New YORK Sum sosekaI Services

London, March 14.-In the complete abb
sence Of any explanation of the circum-
stances attending General Methuen's re-
lease by his captors, the press of all
shades Of opinion prefers to attribute 1t
to General Delarey's magnanimity rather
than to inability to retain his prisoner,
although the probability that the latter
was the real cause Of General Methuen's
release Is considered strong. 1t is pointed
out that General Delarey could not at
ford to hamper the mobility of his force
by the care of a distinguished prisoner
with a dangerously fractured thigh, and
even We're he able to place him some
where safe from recapture he would not
be likely to obtain the necessary medical
attention and comforts; but even assum-
ing that the release was prompted by in
terested motives it is held that nothing
Is thereby detracted from the magnani-
nous courtesy of General Delarey, upon
whom most Of the editorials bestOw warm
praise.s ..
The public is now eagerly awaiting
news of the terms of the release. 1t is
pointed out, in view of the character of
his wound, that it is quite possible that
General Methuen was liberated on parole.
If, on the other hand, he was set free
Internationally, the generous act will, it
is contended, be Immediately recognized
by one equally chivalrous and a Boer
eral Methuen will be sent to the Boer
lines 1t is suggested that either General
Cronje or General Viljoen would be a
fair exchange. The Times, whose com
ments can be quoted as a type of those
OF majority Of the papers, says:
We need not speculate as to whether GEN
eral Methuen would have been detained if he
had not been wounded. 1t is nough to know
that his captor placed humanity and chivalry
before all considerations and refused to take
the responsibility Of OBTAINING General Me-
thuen at the cost OF inficting exquisite torture
upon him by the incessant iolting Of a wagon
in a rough country. The action or General
Delarey is such as was to be expected from
one who has always borne high character
for humanity and enlightenment. 1t may also
be supposed that he glad to thus repay
the kindness General Methuen showed his
wife and children when they were overtaken
by the cruel fortune Of war.

Special to The Journal.
Winona, Mimi. March IA. DIR. Irwin
Shepard, secretary of the National Edu-
cational association, reports arrange
ments proceeding in a most satisfactory
manner for the annual meeting of the as
ISOLATION to be held next July at Mime
apolis. For no previous convention have
the advance arrangements been so well in
hand or so thoroughly organized at this
early date. Among the prominent men
from abroad invited to attend the con-
vention is Michael Sadler, a. member of
the London school board. regarded as the
leading teacher in England at the pres
ent time. While no positive word has
yet been received from Mr.. Sadler it is
regarded as certain that he will accept
the invitation. So
The programs for the general sessions
and the seventeen departments are we'll
urder way, but none of them is yet fully
completed. The Office force here is kept
busy answering inquiries regarding the
convention Next month when the bulle-
tins commence to be sent out. it is ex-
pected to increase the force in the sec
retary's Office.
ALL the railway arrangements for the
convention are now completed, and in a
very satisfactory manner. They include
an agreement with every railway in the
limited States. DR.. Shepard reports the
| work being done by the local committee
| at Minneapolis as very effective. The
special articles that have been prepared
and sent to educational magazines are at
tracing good deal Of attention to Min
neapolis. DR.. Shepard says that out
| side Of California he knows of no state
where the convention has been held where
as strong interest has been manifested as
| in Minnesota at the present time. He
predicts there will be very few teachers
of any prominence In the state who will
rot attend the convention.

MOON AND WEATHER
Climate and Crop Bulletin Handles
the Subject.

Section Director Outram's monthly eli
airy is unusually interesting. In addition
to the regular data are given articles on
Cruelty to Farm Animals and 'The
Moon and the eWather." The latter re-
fers to the popular theory that the wealth

the influence of the moon or the planets.

dictors. The monthly weather summary is
as follows:

ty, as recorded by weather bureau instru-
ments, forty miles per hour from the

BOARD OF CONTROL TO DECIDE
1t Is Hardly Probable That the De-
sired Permission Will Be
t.. .aat Granted. II,

The state board of control is not likely
to grant Jim Younger permission to
marry. His application is before them,
and is being seriously weighed, but the
members of the board do not feel favor
ably inclined toward it, -.s.as~-.
Application was made to Governor Van
SAINT. Paroled prisoners can marry only
by permission of the paroling power which
NOV rests in the state board Of control.
There is no precedent to guide in this
case, for the Younger brothers are the
first life prisoners ever paroled III Mime
sofa. Under the law, life prisoner is
legally dead He may not make a con-
tract without permission of the authori-
tiles. Though at large, the brothers are
still under sentence, and the question
arises whether they are legally respon-
sible for debts they may contract.
The prospective bride is said to be Miss
Alix j. Muller, young lady Of Swiss
extraction, who has been engaged in
country newspaper work. ~.
