COMBATING WEEDS.
Rank Growth of Useless Plants Has
Demonstrated the Value OF
Thorough Tf1Iage.

There is no royal road to NEEDLESS
farming. Following are some of the
means of keeping weeds in check:
/. Practice rotation; keep ahead of
the weeds. Certain weeds follow GER
tain crops; when these weeds become
serious, change the crop.
2. Change the method of ti1lage. II
weed persists, try deeper or shall
lower blowing, or different kind Of
harrow or cultivator, or till at differ
emit times and seasons.
8. Harrow the land frequently when
it is in fallow, or is waiting for a
crop. Harrow it, if possible, after
seeding, and before the plants are
high enough to be broken by the inn
plement. Potatoes, corn and other
things can be narrowed after they
are several inches high; and some
times the land may be narrowed be-
fore the plants are up.
A. Practice frequent tillage with
light surface working tools through
out the season. This is hard on
weeds, and does the crop good.
S. Pull or hoe out stray weeds that
escape the wheel tools.
6. Clean the land as soon as the
crop is harvested, and if the land
lies open in the fall, till it occasion
ally. Many persons keep their prem
ises scrupulously clean in the early
season, but let them run wild late in
the fall, and thus is the land seeded
for the following year.
Use clean seed, particularly of
crops that are sown broadcast, and
which, therefore, do not admit of til
lage.
8. Do not let the weeds go to seed
on the manure piles, in the fence cor
ners, and along the highway.
9. Avoid coarse and raw stable ma
nure, particularly if it is suspected
of harboring bad company. CONNER
cial fertilizers may be used for a
time on foul land.
10. Sheep and pigs sometimes can
be employed to clean the weeds from
foul and fallow land. Land infested
with Jerusalem artichokes is readily
cleaned if hogs are turned in.
II. Induce your neighbor to keep
his land as clean as you keep yours.
Rank pigweeds and their illx are a
compliment to mans soil. Land
that viii not grow weeds will not
grow crops, for crops are only those
particular kinds of weeds man
wants to raise. Weeds have taught
us the lesson of good tillage. There
is no indication that they intend to
remit their efforts in our behalf

of this is furnished in the person of

given four sons and a grandson to the

thinking public.
Touched in its pocket. the public re-
spohded in upsavory references to Lncre-
tla's race.
Porter loved a good horse, and liked to
zee him win. The confidence Of the public
IN his honesty was as great a reward as the
stakes. The avowed principle Of racing,
that it improved the breed Of horses. was
but a silent sentiment with him. He be-
Iieved IN Il. but, not being rich, raced as a
profession. honestly and squarely. He had
asserted more than once that II he were

the outdoor relaxation it gives me, you
know, 80 I'm not much Of a Judge. The
other horse you bought-the winner Of the
race, l mean, ~Lusanne-will also help put
you right, l should say"
Porter hesitated. uneasily. He disliked
to talk about a man behind his back, but he
knew that Langdon trained for Crane, and
longed to give the banker a friendly word
Of warning; he knew nothing Of the iattar's
manipulation Of the trainer.
With a touch of rustic quaintness he
said, with seeming irrelevanee to the sub
ioct. Have you ever picked wild straw

Mrs. Berwind, whose servants all went on
strike at her splendid Newport villa a week
or SO ago, Is still having trouble with her
domesties. The. force with which she re-
placed the deserters included some shady
specimens. two of whom got into q nstlc
argument the other evening over the Ques-
tion which should serve coffee to the guests
at dinner. The row developed in the PAN
try, and one Of the men nearly lost an eye.
The other was sent to Jail for thirty days.
This deplorable scandal was one Of the
reasons why Mrs. Berwind's butler took

The largest raft OF lumber that ever
hoated down the current Of the father OF

contained $500, 900 feet OF lumber and was
towed by two steamers. 1t left Saltwater,

a little over three weeks, It would have

chinery OF one of the towing steamboats,
caused a tieup at Alton until repairs could
be made. There is no record Of any raft
of the size ever reaching ST. louis.
All existing railroad spans OF over 500
feet have been built since 1870, and prob
ably more In America than IN ali the rest
OF the world together. and certainly these
are much better and cheaper and have been
more rapidly and safely constructed than
those Of any other country. In 4 word.
American engineers have built most OF tho
greatest and most dificult bridges In the
world and in less than half a century,
largely within the last quarter century,
have developed the art Of bridge building

struction has reached in hundreds OF years.
They have brought IL to practical limits
that cannot be greatly extended until some
radically new material is provided that IN
