The Potato Crop.


A fair illustration Of the difference
between an average crop and good
crop may be found in the census re-
port of the potato crop, as given in
1900. The average crop for all the
States was placed at 8O.8 bushels per
acre. The average in Vermont was 1874
bushels that year and in Maine 1875
bushels. The new land in Montana
averaged the same as Vermont in 1900,
but they had 156 bushels in 1897 and
ITO bushels in 1896. Nevada had 100
bushels in 1896 and 156 bushels in
1900. Of the other States, there were
1856 bushels per acre in 1900 In Idaho,
116 in Washington, no In Oregon and
1O4 in California. The fact that Ne
yada and Idaho were the only States
that exceeded Vermont in 1900, and
Montana only equaled it, shows that
the stony lands of New England can
equal the newly settled and exceed
ingly fertile lands Of the Northwestern
States; and If the cost of manure and
fertilizer and the labor of cultivation
is not as much there as here, there is
a gain in the better values that they
have here when ready for market

0rA-Sided BUILDINGS.

"A good many people find fault with
some of the new buildings we are put
ting up. on the ground that they are
one-sided," said one of the superln-
tendents employed by large construc-
tion company. "By this it is meant
that they appear architecturally lncom-
plete. Main entrances are placed at
apnarently inconvenient corners, and
large windows and prominent decora-
tions that rightfully belong in certain
sections to insure harmonious whole
are now sadly out of place. This lack
of uniformity is due to the fact that
many buildings in course OF construc-
ton are not being put up in their en-
tirety. In many cases 1t has oeen
found impracticable to break the
lease for houses on adJolnlns

APOSTLES OF EATING LESS.
Food Faddists Have Had a Great Year
For Their Theories

Food Faddists Have Had Great Year
For Their Theories.
It has been a fine year for the in.
creasing thousands who have fads
about their food. The high prices OF
almost everything in the market have
given the opportunity. The advocates
of no breakfast, of meat once day,
of no meat at all, of certain kinds OF
vegetables, of no kinds of vegetables,
of nuts only, of the absolute avoid.
ance of nuts, of raw fruit, of fruit
only when cooked, Of neither coffee
nor tea nor sassafras, and of all the
other things, or of any part of things
or of no things at all, have come forth
not singly, but in battalions, and have
told us how to live to be hundred
if we don't die.
1t would be gross ingratitude not t.,
be thankful to these advisers. They
are sincere. They want to do good
They give their time for the benefit
of others. They are sad to think OF
ignorant thousands going to early
graves on full stomachs. They raise
their warning voices against safety
People should stop eating before they
get enough. The old saying about
losing what is left on the plates finds
no echo in their doctrines. Eating
for the sake of eating is sin. Eating
all the things that are offered is
wickedness. So they find something
bad in every number of the bill OF
fare-from typhoid fever in raw
oysters to dyspepsia and vain regrets
in pie.
They have a right to their convlc
lions. A man down in Virginia went
without food for thirty days this year
But like as not they doubled the price
of his board for the next month. PEG
pie use the starvation plan for many
ailments. Many of them go to health
resorts and pay $50 to the hotel doctor
who strikes off the bill of fare all the
good things they would like to eat
The hotels get their savings, the doc
tor gets his big fees and they get
hungry. But most of the faddists
have their imaginations in their cut
inary departments, and 1t is not rea
sonable of them to expect the robust
members of society to follow their ex
amples. It may be wrong, but the
average American wants breakfast. l,
may hurt him, but he will have meat
He may be jeopardizing his very soul

IGNORANCE BEGETs CRIME.
Reflections of an Editor in a States
Prison Newspaper.

A great many men commit crime
because of their sheer ignorance. Of
course, a knowledge of this fact
doesn't bring satisfaction to a house
holder who has been robbed, or a
citizen who has been stood up on the
highway and relieved of his posses
sions. But, nevertheless, fact remains
true that ignorance breeds crime.
There is many little kid today play
ing on the city dumps and in the al
leyways of the slums, who, fifteen or
twenty years hence, will be the com
mon drunk, the 'hobo,' the second
story man, the highwayman and the
burglar-and the reason therefor is
not hard to find Instead of being IN

and keeps up for about two weeks: A
great deal of moisture is thrown off at
this time and sufficient ventilation must
be provided to carry it away. Roof
boards should be put on as soon as
trenches are filled, to keep rain out, but
the ends may be left open. At the ap-
proach of cold weather it is necessary
to cover the boards with earth. The
thickness Of this covering must depend
on the locality. If very heavy earth
covering is necessary, the rafters should
be placed nearer together.
Two essentials must be observed, suf-
ficient air to prevent rotting, and frost
must be excluded. II. Kent, in

The Beatrice Creamery Company Of
Lincoln paid to the farmers Of the
State during the month of June be-
tween $135,OOO and $40, 700 for butter

distributed for packing stock. or coun-
try butter. A conservative estimate
places the amount of money that will
be paid by the creameries Of this State
for butter fat alone at 100000 during
the month of June. A banker from one
of the towns in the State said that in
his town more money was being paid
out to the farmers for dairy products
than for grain.

Sowing Alfalfa.

The best way to SOW alfalfa Is to ploW
the land deep in the spring or winter.
Turn up a little new soil harrow down
and SOW beardless spring barley at the
rate of two bushels to the acre. Sow
fifteen pounds, or peck, Of alfalfa seed
at the same time. [ usually roll the
land we'll after sowing. This makes
the alfalfa do better, but is sometimes
hard on the barley Alfalfa will come
up through very firm soil and thrive
better than when it is too loose. Let the
barley ripen and cut it for grain. Then
when the alfalfa starts up a little clip
it with the mower. Clip it close. 1t Will
start again, and after month or so clip
again. It is better to keep stock of for
two years. Begin moving the second
year as soon as the blossoms form. At
ter the first crop Is taken off 1t will ma
ture another in exactly thirty days. Do
not delay cutting this second crop. 1t
will take about thirty-five days for the
third crop to grow. Take 1t off
promptly. Then in thirty-five or forty
DAYS there is the fourth crop. Take 1t,
or Craze it.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

How to Boil a Ham.

To give a ham an excellent favor,
soak it in vinegar and water for few
hours, then put it on the fire in cold
water and when it boils add two heads
of celery, two turnips, three onions,
and bunch Of herbs. Let 1t simmer
very gently until tender. If it Is to
be eaten cold, let the ham stay in the
water until nearly cold, take 1t out,
strip off the skin, and cover with bread
raspings.

Storing Celery for Winter.

When kept in quantities, celery re-
quires considerable room. An economi-
cal way to provide the necessary stor-
age is by the covered ditch plan.
Dig trench or trenches in well-drain-
ed soil, not more than four feet wide
and about two feet deep. Put board
partition through the center of the
trench to divide the mass of celery and
prevent it becoming too solid. Rafters
of 2x4 stuff are set at 1-3 pitch four feet
apart Make square box ventilators that
may be stuffed with straw to keep out
frost in severe weather.

For Tying Cows.

While the old-fashioned way Of fast
ening cows by means Of stanchions is
FAST going out Of use, some Of the SUBJ
stltutes, mainly the rope snap to the
natter and the chain which is passed
around the neck of the animal, are not
entirely satisfactory. The method Of
using a chin tie as shown in the illus
trat1on Is superior to the others. It
passes around the neck as In the old
methods, but is connected with two
posts on which rings are used. Side
chains connect the neck chain with

Feeding Bees in Winter.

Don't feed syrup to bees in winter.
Use the combs of honey and the candy
1t is just as well, If not better, to feed
right away. Very quietly remove the
outside comb or combs at one side, SO
that you can put the frame Of honey
or candy right next to the bees. The
bees will do the rest. OF course you
will not use any smoke. II your work
is carefully done, you will have NO
trouble IN regard to colonies that are
too light for winter and need feeding

shown in the cut.
By the use Of these chains and rings
one can adjust the tie to any width of
stall one is likely to have, and have 1t
as taut as needed. This plan of fasten-
ing gives the COW great freedom, enabl-
ing her to lie down with her head on
either side of her body. She cannot
move backward or forward any more
with this method Of fastening than
when in stanchions. The plan of fasten-
ing Is the best Of the more modern
methods and should have a thorough
trial
