|GIVER OF MILLIONS.
So Modest That His Fame Has
Never Gone Abroad.
william Deering's Benencence Has
Been Extensive and Soon He May
Give Another Million To North-
western University.

Reports that William Deering, the
~ell-known harvester manufacturer
Of Chicago, has in contemplate tion gift
of $1,000, 900 to Northwestern uni
versitN, bring to light the fact that
while this philanthropist has continu-
ously for 20 years given thousands of
dollars to educational institutions,
churches and charities his beneficence
practically has been kept secret.
While he can hardly be placed be-
side Rockefeller in the total sums he
has given, ii is known that he has given
away fortunes. Small, struggling col
,eges or churches, particularly of the
Methodist denomination, for Mr.. Deer
ing always has been warm supporter
of the Methodist church and its institu-
tions, have been helped by him when
confronted with debts or mortgages
without the fact being flashed over the
wire and becoming public through the
newspapers.
Some time ago Mr.. Deering heard
that his native town in Maine would
like TO have library. He Immediately
wrote out a check sufficient to pur-
chase one and maintain it without put
ting any obligations on the city.
Garrett Biblical institute, affiliated
with Northwestern university, has
been the recipient at various times of
Mr.. behring's generosity. He has been
president of the board of trustees of
the institute and also held the same
position on the university board. At
one time he gave $1,000 to a seminary
at Omarga, III. He endowed and built
Fisk hall, which is occupied by the pre-
paratory school at the university and
built Willard hall, the girls dormitory
at Evanston, where the university is
located.
He has regularly given from $4,000
to $1,000 to the city missionary and

Getting u SuppIy of IIumus.

On most farms the rush of getting
out the manure for the spring planting
is over, and it's time to begin to save
manure to draw out after harvest. II
there is no manure shed on the place
scrape all the scattcrings OF the barn
yard and feed lots into a pile, get the
old stack bottoms that are too wet or
rotted for bedding over them and then
pile the manure az made from day to
day on the whole mass. If few hogs
could he let loose on the pile each day
small amount Of shelled corn scat
tered over the mass would lead the
swine to work over the whole. and be
fore the summer was past there would
be nice lot of humus in good shape for
plowing under when drawn out. Be
sides the stack yards, feed lots and all
the farmyard surroundings would be
neater for the general cleaning up.

church extension societies in Chicago
to support evangelistic work. He has
given $780, to Wesley hospital, in
Chicago, to erect Il new building and
make it first-class medical institu-
tion. The hospital also is a Methodist
institution. Northwestern university
has received many times valuable land
from Mr.. Deering, which netted hand
some return. The sums of money to
Northwestern university range from
$50 900 to 100000, all given since the
institution was founded. There are
many other gifts that would make a
long list.
Mr.. Deering is the Oldest and wealth
lest friend of the university and the
announcement that there will be a do
nation of $l,00O,0O0 for endowment
does not cause much surprise. Ac-
cording to information the gift is to be
presented as soon as President James.
who recently left the University of
Chicago to assume management at
Evanston. is found to meet Mr.. Deer.
ing's approval, after reasonable time,
from the viewpoint of the institutions
welfare. The period Of probation will
not be long, as the manner in which
President James grasped the situation
as he found it has gone far to convince
friends of the university that its future
| is safe with him.
Negotiations under way for the af-
fliation of He<lding college at Abing-
!. ton, H., with the Northwestern, are
taken as an indication OF the policy of
expansion the institution is to pursue
under the presidency of DR.. James.
For some time Mr.. DeerinS has been
in poor health. Recently he trans
ferred to his sons his interest in the
immense harvesting machine plant,
and the real estate on which It stands,
with the expressed intention Of with
drawing from active business cares.

FAMOUS OLD HIGHWAY.
Cumberland Road, Constructed Near
ly One Hundred Years Ago,
still In Fair Condition.

The most remarkable highway built
in the United States early in the CEN
tury was the so-called Cumberland
road, which was to extend from Cum
berland, Nd, through southwestern
Pennsylvania, over the Allegheny
mountains to the Ohio at Wheeling,
W. Va, and then on to st. Louis. 1t
was so well constructed that it is a
good road to-day. Henry Clay was its
protector and chief supporter and his
services in its behalf are commemorate
ed by monument near Wheeling. We
are told by letters written at that
period that there were sometimes 90
gayly- painted four-horse coaches each
way daily. The cattle and sheep were
never out Of sight, and canvas-covered
wagons were drawn by six or twelve
horses"
On this great road. which eventually
passed into the hands of the states
through which it runs, the government
expended no less a sum than 1000, 900.
Within a mile of it on either side the
country was wilderness, but on the
highway itself the traffic was as dense
as in the main street of large town.
Ten miles an hour was the usual speed
for coaches. From Baltimore to Wheel
ing ran lines of freight wagons which
carried ten tons, drawn by 12 horses,
and with wheels ten feet in diameter.
When Charles Dickens visited Amer
lea in 1912, he travelled by stage coach
from Cleveland to Sandusky, o. De-
scribing his experience, he wrote:
."At one time we were all thrown to-
gether in heap at the bottom of the
coach. and at another we were crush
ing our heads against the roof. Now
the coach was lying on the tails of the
two wheelers, and now it was rearing
up in the air. The driver. who GER
tainly got over the ground in man
ner quite miraculous, so twisted and
/ turned the team, in forcing passage
corkscrew fashion through the bogs
and swamps, that it was common
circumstance, on looking ont of the
window, to see the coachman with the
ends OF pair of reins in his hands,
apparently driving nothing, and the
leaders staring unexpected at one
from the back of the coach, as if they
had some idea of getting up behind. A
great portion of the way was over
what is called "a corduroy road which
is made by throwing trunks of trees
into marsh and leaving them to set
tie there. The very slightest Of the
jolts with which the ponderous car
riage fell from log to log was enough,
it seemed, to have dislocated all the
bones in the human body. 1t would
be impossible to experience a similar
set of sensations in any other circum-
stances, unless perhaps in attempting
to go up to the top of st. Paul's in an
omnibus"
This description serves to illustrate e
the condition of our country roads.
generally speaking. as they were 25
years ago, except in n few wealthy
communities. There has been a won
ierful change since then.-Pearson's
