WOMAN'S SOCIAL POWER.
When Exercised in the Right Direc-
ton 1t Affects the Welfare of An
Entire Community.

The power and influence that woman
possesses socially is something for
which she should be grateful and use
to the best advantage. To some taste
full woman with a truly social spirit
NAV be given the credit of making
MANY community what it is. Passing
a massive city church, thronged with
worshipers, and noted for being ex-
ceedingly social in spirit, Rev. William
J. Peck, in writing for the Ledger
Monthly, recalls the fact that the
building is accredited to a socially in
clined, cultured pastors wife, who had
the gracious gift of kindness. She
had a winning way, and noticed that a
great many strangers came to the
church never to return. She made
up her mind that she would make them
feel at home. She took her position at
the close of service near the door and
greeted the strangers with a cordial
handclasp and explained she was the
pastors wife and that he would gladly
call on them if they would leave their
addresses. She had a charming per-
sonality, and followed successfully
this plan till the old church, which was
almost dead, became filled with q
strong social and spiritual power, and
people recognized it as social "hand.
shaking church," and soon this mag
nifcent edifice, built from the con
! tagion of an irresistible ecclesiastical
handshake, stood as monument OF
humanity at its BEST

ary Workers.

It has been said that suffering often
liberates and reveals the forces of the
soul. A phenomenal instance of this is
found in the little city of Casey, ILL.,, in
the person and life of Miss Lizzie L.
johnson. Her struggle for 1s years
with mortal disease is something more
than impressive.
At about 10 years of age severe ILL.,
ness came upon her which developed
into permanent aff1iction of spinal
character extending to all the nerve
centers. For Is years she has been laid
on her back wholly unable to leave her
bed. She has the free use of her arms
and head, also some use of the limbs,
but her body is confined to one posi-
tioc.
Those who have known her from her
childhood, especially from the begin.
ming of her affection, find it difficult to
realize the magnitude of the. work she
is now doing and has been doing for a
number of years. They feel that they
have never seen suffering and weari.

Eugene has one odd expectation.
She is said to believe firmly that she

I shall just keep on living"
And so she will, pro- bly,, for she has
no illnesses as yet, is active and fond of
all outdoor exercises. Eugene has
been SO much on the water that she has
acquired the sailors rudy color, and
much of her strength in old age is due
to her love for bracing sea air. People
who saw this lady in the days of her
prime will remember her strangely
beautiful eyes, Eugene eyes" they
were called. An unusual type they
were, and are, the eyelids dropping SO
low as to give an arched look to the
dark eyes, which are bright, almost
glowing still. Eugenie's eyes were al

PERTINENT FARM NOTES.

The United States raises four-ffths
of the worlds corn, over 1000, 600, 600
bushels annually.
There is wide divergence of opin-
ion as to the outcome of the United
States rice crop for 1902. Estimates
of yield range from 100000 to 4,000,-
600 sacks.
Where a locality becomes addicted
to the habit of growing one crop year
after year, the average soil deterio-
rates unless fertilizers are applied, if
the crop is sold from the farm.
A we'll arranged system of rotation
contributes greatly to maintaining
the uniform fertility of the soil, and
is also one of the readiest means by
which to get rid of insect pests.
Illinois. for the last rs years. has
averaged over a quarter of a billion
bushels of corn annually. An increase
of one bushel of corn to the acre
means to Illinois farmers $4,000 900.
The results of cooperative fertiliz-
err tests on meadows conducted in
England in 1900, showed that the most
profitable proportions of commercial
fertilizers were $50 pounds of nitrate
of soda, 200 pounds of super phosphate
and 300 pounds of KANT per acre.

She does not forget home institu-
lions and causes, as the Cunningham
deaconess' home and orphanage and
other benefciaries can testify. It is
a constant wonder how much work
Mss johnson does. She attends to ali
her correspondence, not infrequently
receiving hundred letters week, and
whether they be letters of inquiry or
remittances of. money she allows no
letter to go unacknowledged, and at
tends to this herself personally.
How does she secure the money to
carry on her mission work? BY the
sale of silk bookmarks, which she
makes, and on which she has printed
choice selections of Scripture, gems
from favorite poets, birthday notes,
etc. These marks she mails to any
Christian workers who will superin-
tend the sale of them. She receives or
ders from individuals, Sunday schools,
leagues, woman's foreign missionary
societies and other organizations.
This consecrated soul and the work
she is doing are worthy of publicity,
both for the good accomplished in the
mission fields and the inspiration it
gives to other workers. None can en-
ter her room and hear her CHEEKY
words, see her illumined face, but to
go away with new inspiration and
courage to help in the worlds work.

of Casey; he and his entire family OF

tive workers and Bible women from $2f
to $50 per annum. There are no scales

SUCCESS IN FARMING.
II Conducted and How Small
Things Are Done.

Success in farming depends on tho
way the business is conducted, and
on how well the small things arc
done. One of the principal causes Of
failure in farming is going on in q
haphazard kind of way, paying no at
tention to the small things and keep
ing no accounts of the outgo or in
come. Tho lew shingles that are OF
the barn don't interfere any, only
when it rains, and rainy days are the
only times they have to do these odd
jobs, being so busy other times with
big jobs. There may be weak place
in the barn floor and some day an
animal will step through. It's only
q short piece of work to repair it
and will be attended to some day,
but that day never comes.
IT one is to make success at farm
ing he must pay strict attention to
all these odd jobs. He cannot be IN
agent for everything that comes
along, 60 with q threshing machine
all the fall, or draw all the milk To
tho creamery for his neighbors. If
practicable for best results, he must
have his blowing done in the fall for
spring crops; never keep two hired
men when only one is needed. 4
great many farmers keep one hired
man the year round, when his serv.
ices five or six months would be all
that is necessary. The manner In
which the implements are used on
some farms bring a great loss to
the owner. They should be care
fully sheltered at all times when not
in use, and given a coat of paint
when required. Keep posted on tho
markets Of the future and sell &C.
cordingly.
In growing crops aim to raise what
the markets demand. All markets
are not alike and close observation
of the demands of the customer, as
we'll as the seasons when certain
kinds of farm produce is preferred
will give the farmer an advantage
which will enable him to secure bet
ter prices. Remember, it is the buyer
who is to be satisfied. If in market"
ing poultry the consumer prefers
fowls with yellow legs, it is to the
producers interest to grow such. The
best breed for his purpose is tha-
which he finds will give the buyer
the greatest satisfaction, and what
is true of poultry also is true of a
great many other products of the
farm. - V. NJ. Couch, in Farmers
Voice.

TWISTED STOMACH WORM,
Parasite That In Causing C0nsldeF-
able TrOnble Among Lambs At
the Present Time.

A press bulletin just issued by D. A.
W. Biting, of the Purdue university
experiment station. says that the past
wet season has been very favorable to
the development of animal parasites
and tho effects are now being realized
in the very great loss of lambs due to
twisted stomach worms. The symp-
toms are dizziness, loss of appetite, in
creased thirst; diarrhoea may or may
not be present; some show an accumu-
lation of fluid between the jaws;
grinding of teeth; stiffness of back
and hind parts; tagging behind the
aock. In acute cases there may be ev-
licences of pain, as collie, eating unusu-
al material aud much bloating. Some
die suddenly without showing much
evidence of disease, but most Inger a
week or two. Old sheep are not:much
affected. The worm-one-half inch
long and thread-like-is found in the
fourth stomach. If lamb be killed
and the stomach be opened at once,
these worms will be found of pink
ish color, but if the lamb dies and the
stomach be not opened for a couple
of hours, the worms will be white and
matted together, resembling fibers of
food.
The treatment is as follows: Take
one part of coal tar creosote and 100
parts Of water and mix well. With a
two-ounce hard rubber syringe hav-
ing short bit of rubber tubing on the
end, administer one syringeful to each
lamb. Use care not to hold the head
too high or to force the dose too rap
idly, SO as to cause strangulating.
i With such an arrangement a. whole
flock may be easily treated, )One to
three treatments given, a few days
apart may be necessary. 1t is also a
good policy to turn the lambs off the
regular pasture into the corn field
They will do little damage to the corn,
and in eating the lower blades and
grass get food free from all contami-
nation. Yarding and giving dry feed
may also be resorted to. The main Oh.
ject is to get the sheep off the infected
pasture.

Irrigation by Pumping.

In our western country and even in
some localities in the central west.
considerable irrigation has been done
by means of pumps. Some declare
that irrigation by means of pumps
can never amount to much. But we
know that this practice is as old as
civilization, and this mode of irriga-
ton has been employed in some parts
of the world successfully for centu-
ries. There are many places in our
western states where from five to Is
acres of land are irrigated by pumps
driven by windmills. Doubtless the
future will see the further utilization
OF the pump, whether driven by wind
or by other foree.-Farmers' Review:
