WASTE MAKES WANT.
Why the Thrifty German Fnrmcr q.
GENERALLY More Prosperous
than His Fellows.

That German farmers in this conn.
try generally are more prosperous
than American farmers is well
known fact. But why is this? In an
swering this question our people
jump to the nearest conclusion-that
they can live on less than natives.
That this is erroneous every one
knows who has associated with these
foreigners" at their homes, As n
rule with very few exceptions their
tables are abundantly supplied with
good, wholesome food, well cooked
and heartily eaten, This is also CON
firmed by their health, strength and
energy. They are industrious, but
who ever heard of Germans DENYING
themselves rational recreation or SO.
cial pleasures? 1t would be well for
American farmers to initiate their
German neighbors in more WAYS than
one. One reason why German farm
ers prosper is that they are practical
and rational economists. They know
they can get more for their money
by paying cash for what they buy
than by having their purchases

Did You never notice to what ex.

go to make up the supply Of plant

hausting agencies seem in great
measure to be controlled by those in
charge of the farms. There is n no.

ers, is more or less a gift; but close
study and application in this dircc-
ton will work wonders. The would
be successful farmer must study his
lands; observe the various chances
wrought over them through the on
Grafton of tilling and grazing and
he will soon learn by experience to
counteract the agencies that impoyer-
ish his acres, and render them unnro.

signed to shore service. In 1902 there
were l,023 officers available for sea
service in the navy, the total dis
placement Of which is s27,O22 tons.
Inns is an average of SOC tons to each
officer, Of the total commissioned
force 100 officers are at sea and 1903
are doing shore service.
The period between 1898 and 1902
mas been one of greater growth for
the United States navy than any 20
years previous to that time. The
SIZE and efficiency has increased
threefold in that time, but there is
an increase of only So commissioned
officers. The intricacies of the mod.
ern battleship are such as to require
the highest skilled attention. Tho
Importance of shore duty is far more

BE PROGRESSIVE.
ihe Farmer of To-Day Must he Pro-
gressive II He Would Achieve
Success.

The farmer should endeavor to
make some progress in one line or an
other as long as he farms. He can not
afford 10 patronize every agent that
comes along or invest largely in
new seeds; neither is it best to buy
every new implement or machine that
is brought out, but at the same time
he should be alive to his interests and
not follow along in the old ruts too
closely Indeed the farmer should
keep his eyes open, ever on the look
out for something to better his condi-
ton but at the same time careful
about investing his hard-earned mon
ey until he is sure of a profitable ex-
penditure
The farm home should constantly
be showing improvement in some
way; and the fertility of the farm
should be growing better all Of the
time, as it may, by proper manage
ment, The policy of continually
drawing from the soil without return
ing anything to it can not long be
carried on without noticeable diminu.
ton of the products of the farm.
Some of the modern conveniences
should find their way to the farm;
and improved implements should be
purchased as required to replace the
old ones, when found that it will be
profitable to do so and the farmers
means will allow. At least one good
agricultural paper should be taken,
and if possible to do so take three or
four and study about the farmers
methods, If rural free delivery of
mail does not reach you now, make
an effort to secure it, because it will
add so much to the enjoyment of
farm life In my own vicinity two
rural free delivery routes have .
Gently been established, and two
farmers at least declare theywillhave |
nothing to do with it, not even to pick |
up free copies of dailypaper thrown |
out by the carrier. Are these men |
think you? Why not vel |
come all such benefits to the rural
with extended hand. The |
farmer likes to have |
good road along his farm, and will |
be willing to work out his tax; yes,
and a little more too, for the sake
of having it; and in many good
things for the farmers benefits he
will be found in the front rank, and
not near the tail end.-Cor, Epito-

Certain gestures are absolutely iden.
tilted with certain feelings. To shake
ones fist is to threaten; 10 hold up ones
finger is to warn. To indicate thought
we place the tips of the fingers on the
forehead to show concentrated atten-
ton we apply the whole hand. TO rub
the hands is everywhere a sign of JOY,
and to clap them sign OF enthusiasm.
1t would be easy to multiply exam
pies. Affirmation, negation, repulsion
are all indicated by motions that every
one understands.
1t is the same, in quite as great a
degree, with nationalities, in spite of
the original diversity Of the races that
make them up. The mimetic charac-
ter results at once from race. from
history and from climate.
The gesture of the Englishman is
fierce and harsh; he speaks briefly,
brusquely; he is cold, positive. forceful.
His salutation is cold and aecentuated,
but his handshake is loyal. The ges-
ture of Germany is heavy, good-hu-
mored and always ungraceful Many
of the Slav people are unwilling to look
one in the face, and they have a false
gesture.
The Spaniard and the Portuguese.
although dwelling in a southern land,
gesticulate little; their language is
rhythmic, slow. solemn; they are grave,
their salutation is little theatrical.
The Italian is lively. mobile. jntell

country's sky The salutation of the
Italian is quick and full of feeling. his
