ImDortant Little Things.

Horses are high this year, and every
farmer should keep only just the num-
Der necessary for his work, says Amer
lean Agriculturist He should get all
he can out of them by giving good
grooming and feed, starting in work
gradually, providing well fitting collars
and keeping them clean. These may
appear little things, but are just what
often determine the success or failure

Burns Cause Of Long Suffering

For almost three years Harvey
Rhodes has been suffering from the
effects of burns received while work
ing at the blast furnace of the Dan
Vile Besscmer Company and as last
resort is going to the University of
Pennsylvania Hospital, Philadelphia,
to have a skin grating operation per-
formed.
In September, 1899, Rhodes walked
into hot cinders and both feet were
badly burned. The right one healed
would not yield to treatment On the
top of the foot, below the ankle, and
along the side the flesh has not grown
in and it is here that the skin is to be
grated. This is Il rare and delicate
operation, which will be performed by
DR.. Martin, an eminent surgeon of
Philadelphia who has made a special
study of skin grating. Rhodes will be
taken to Philadelphia in a few days
by his physician, Dr. 7. B. Winter
Stecn.
Ever since the accident Rhodes has
been unable to work and during last
winter was scarcely able to use the
foot. He has to keep it bandaged all
the time, and is undertaking the Phil
adelphia trip in the hope that the
grating Will restore the flesh to the
foot and enable him to fully recover
its use. At the time the accident oc-
CURED he had only lived here a month
having moved from Bloomsbury. He
is now resident of the Second Ward,
living in the rear of Grand street above

Washington, d. c., May 13-The re-
turns to the statistician Of the depart

shows that the average condition of
wheat was 1884 against AL last year,
and $50 the mean for May for the last
ten years. The total acreage is 27,103,-
600. This is 1872 per cent less than the
area sown last fall.
The average condition of winter rye
is 1874. April 1 last it was S4.5, May 1,
1901, 94.6, and the mean for ten years
was SO. The present condition condi-
ton is the lowest May condition since
1898 and the lowest with that excep-
ton in 20 years.
The average condition of meadow
moving lands on May l was S6.6,
against 92.S a year ago, and 90.S and
90.S the mean averages for the last ten
years. The prosecution condition is the
lowest in May since 1888 with the eX-
ception of 1899, when it was $40. States
whose reports contribute most largely
to this low acreage are: Kansas and
Missouri, with 10 points below their
year averages; Iowa, with IA points;
Illinois and Minnesota, with 8, and In
diana with 6.
The verage condition of spring pas
lures was $40, against 91.5 on May 1,

No Sale Party in Denmark Getting

Plebiscite.

Copenhagen, May 13-The confer

ed by the two houses on the Danish
West Indies treaty, held two executive
sessions today. The opponents of the
sale seem inclined to yield to the de-
mand of the ministry for a plebiscite,
relinquishing their former proposal
limiting the vote to those qualified to
vote for members of the colonial coun-
ell, that scheme having aroused pop
ular disapproval. The members Of the
opposition, however, insist on with
holding the final judgment on the
treaty until after the plebiscite, which
they contend is necessary to show the
real temper of the islands. They are
willing to bind themselves to agree to
ratification on specified conditions be-
fore the elections. The ministry will
not agree to such a course, preferring
to let the matter rest until after the
September elections, when the lands
thing is likely to give the ministry a
majority enabling it to secure ratifica-
ton Internationally. knowledge of
this will now in all probability con-
duce to a satisfactory compromise with
