The report Of the Trustees Of the New
Castle County Workhouse and tho re-
port of Warden Meserve-the first made
since the institution was put into Eracti-
cal oEeration-were sent to the Levy
Court at Tuesdays meeting and are
printed in full elsewhere. They make
interesting reading, and the potent
facts therein set forth fully justify the
wisdom of the experiment that con.
yerted our old inefficient and costly
county Jail system into an institution
where the prisoners may be employed
at healthful and remunerative occupa
tion.

MACARONI SEED FOR AMERICA
About 100000 Bushels of Macaroni
Wheat Raised in the Northwest.

Washington letter: I'm course of the
next -four years the northwest will be
furnishing macaroni wheat enough to
supply the domestic demand" said
Secretary Wilson. Last year the crop
amounted to 200, 900 bushels. This year
the farms in North and South Dakota
will produce 1000, 900 bushels, the next
year probably 20, 900, 900 bushels.
The raising of macaroni in the Unit
ed States is now decidedly past the ex-
perimental stage. When / was in
South Dakota 1 say forty-acre fields
of this wheat running thirty-flve
bushels to the acre. This is as good
as any ordinary wheat has ever done.
The seed wheat from which this mac
aroni was grown was brought from the
headwaters of the Volga. Experiment
has shown that it will grow in any
country where there is a 10-inch rain
fall. In North Dakota the average is
sixteen inches.
"The United States has been paying
over So, 200, 900 q year for
for the last decade or more. People
who have been in Italy, where most Of
1t comes from, and ave seen the pro-
cess of manufacture, have been cured
of their appetite for 1t. With cleaner
and better methods of manufacture in
the American factories, that appetite
will assert itself and the demand will
again become normal. The product of
the American factories is better than
that brought from Italy. 1t has a nutty
flavor not found in the imported arti-
Gle. Taking it all together, 1 believe
that in a few years American macaroni
eaters will be consuming nothing but
the domestic article, and the Italian
makers might just as well go out OF
business, so far as we are concerned"

NOTHING DOING"
A Slang Phrase So Old That II Has
Become Classic.

Brooklyn Eagle: Some of those who
affect the picturesque in their language,
interlarding their speech with what they
suppose to be the latest slang phrase,
eschewing accepted and approved English
for what they think Is the latest up-to-
date coinage Of the purlieus, may be
shocked to learn that one OF the latest
and most frequently used phrases Is at
lease fifty years old, and possibly classic.
This phrase is nothing doing" Thomas
De Quincy, in writing his paper on the
Knocking at the Gate In Macbeth all
Of fifty years ago, framed this sentence:
"All other murders referring to Mac
beth's) look pale by the deep crimson of
his, and, as ar amateur once said to me
in a querulous tone: There has been alb
solutely nothing doing since his time, or
nothing that's worth speaking Of " Here
the phrase is used in precisely the same
form and in the same meaning that it is
by the professor of slang In this day.
About the same time, perhaps, a few
years later, Emerson said, In one of his
essays that youth would have its fling;
that 1t demanded reach for its energies
and ambitions, and that it would never
be content away from the centers of in
dustry and population where nothing is
doing" 1t is the same phrase. Shake
speare uses it as nothing DONE" but in
the same sense, in Measure for Meas
ure,' King Lear" and "Othello." Enough
is shown to prove that the latest slang
is, after all, old and of good use. Hitch
ing this wagon of a slang phrase to the
stars, Emerson, De Quincy and Shake
speare, 1t becomes classic.
1t is a fair deduction to be drawn from
the De Quincy quotation that the phrase
nothing doing" was slang in the day Of
his writing, and was used as such. 1t will
be noted that the brilliant master of style
did not use the phrase except as a pota-
ton. From whom? An amateur murder
err. This amateur laments that in the way
of murders there has been nothing do
ing since hat done by Macbeth worth
speaking of. 1t is a fair conclusion that
a man who tries his hand at murder pure
" as an amateur with an effort to at
tain that degree Of skill which he has set
up as standard for himself is of hat
class and manner of men who use slang
as a habit Of speech. And it therefore
may be deduced that De Quincy's anna
teur was using the current slang of his
day.

Cincinnati Price Current: Unusually
mild weather continues to prevail over
the winter wheat and corn sections of the
country, with moderate scatter ed rains.
Such weather is giving the fall-sown
wheat a vigorous growth. and reports
from nearly all sections are of the same
tenor, indicating the fine appearance Of
the wheat, both the early and the late
sown. However, this mild weather has
also favored the development; and spread
of the Hessian fly, which is widely scat
tered, but there is SO far not much COM
plant of damage except from parts Of
Illinois and western Indiana, the most
alarming report being from the north
western part of Indiana, where many fields
are said to be bare in places. with the fly
worse than ever before in the fall. How
ever. the wheat crop situation as a whole
is regarded as favorable.
The large amount of corn husking that
Is going on, as reported by our corre-
spondents from week TO week, is indicative
Of the large amount of corn there is in the
country. The season has been ~unfayor-
able for the rapid drying out of the grain,
which, owing to the practical exhaustion
Of the old crop, is somewhat exasperating
10 those VINO are impatient to use IL i'm
mediately Very little OF II is regarded
as cured sufficiently to ship safely, but
there is a disposition to market ii when
ready. and a period of cold dry weather
would probably largely increase the move
ment, II cars could be had. Late reports
continue TO reflect a wide variation in the
quality, there being much good corn as
well as much soft and chaffy corn.
Pastures are unusually good for this
time Of year, affording considerable feed.
There Is more or less comment on short
supplies of pigs in the country, but there
are fair supplies of cattle, due largely to
the recent heavy influx from the western
ranges. Live stock generally is in good.
healthy condition, although there are oc-
c~asional reports of hogs dying from dis
ease.

Lost Twenty Years.

Rokomo, Ind, Dec. Twenty years
Is a long time to take out OF one per-
sons life, but that. was the fate Of
Anna NJ. Willis Of this place. Fol- TWEEN
ty years she suffered all the torments
OF Kidney Trouble, and anyone In that
state Is not living, but simply existing.
Now Anna NJ. Willis is fully recov-
cred. She appreciates the pleasure Of
living again and never forgets to tell
you that 1t Is all because a friend adj
vised her to try Dodd's Kidney Pills.
In speaking Of her wonderful cure
she says: For twenty years l suffered
from Kidney Trouble. The disease was
terrible In itself and it was all the
more terrible because | could get no re-
lief and my case seemed hopeless.

Colonel Hobbs. the noted expert on
sue of the National Provisloner that corn
fed beef will sell at IL cents on the hoof.
adding a no court order can make It
cost less At the same time he predicts
a wide range between corn finished and
grass stun.
There isn't enough Of the juicy corn
fed article to go around" he asserts,
while the American meat eater eschews
the tough grass steak. The laws OF de-
mand are higher than the statutes of a
legislature and market conditions strong
er than court injunctions.
Present prices of best steers mean IL
cent best on the hoof. Such cattle are
scarce. The price for them must 60
higher. Look out for 13 cent beef and
cheap, straight grass fed stuff"
