them?

French army, at the dictatiOn OF the
holy alliance, entered Spain for the pur-
pose Of setting UP the king by force Of
arms, the historian states:

He knew, as everybody knew, that when
the allies had once settled the affairs Of
Spain they would go on ana settle those
of her former colonies.
Settle them how?
BY crushing democracy ana restoring
the authority OF the king.
On page 35 (Vol 81 NIcAtaster states
that the king Of Spain exhausted MS
resources against the colonies in vain,
and that then lie turned to the king5
of Europe for AID They had restored
TO him his throne. Il is not SURPRISING,
therefore, that he should ask them TO
restore his colonies.
On page ~ of Elson's "Side Lights ON
American History" the author states

TWO LUNATICS AFTER

ident?

Washington October 5.--(Special) 1.-Two
desperate cranks were arrested in the
residence part OF the white house today.
One was Peter Elliott "a heavily armed
Swede claiming to be from Minnesota,
and the other a sailor recently dishon-
orably discharged from the United states
navy.
Eliott's mission to the white house was
of hostile nature, for when trapped
by the local policemen on duty at the
executive mansion, after having eluded
the secret service men at the president
private office adjoining, he made a Vlo-
lent attempt to escape and severely
wounded one OF the policemen who as
sisted in his final capture.
AT the white house an effort was made
to suppress The details Of the affair. fear
ing that ii might incite others to catch
the crank fever III view Of the fact that
within less than a week five dangerous
cranks have been arrested quietly at the
white house.
-Four days ago Elliott sent a letter t6
the president demanding an interview
Accompanying the letter was photo
graph of the sender. Private Secretary
Loeb at once recognized the commune
cation as crank enusion' ana accord.
insly turned it over to the secret service
guard on duty at the white house.

Using Old Hens.

Expert poultrymen claim that after a
hen has passed her second year she is
no longer fit for laying purposes, and
should be sent to the carcass market
This may be so in many cases, and no
one will question the fact that the best
egg results come from fowls two years
old and under. On the other hand one
frequently finds Individual hens that
lay better at three and four years old
than when younger, and when such Is
the case it would be folly to kill such
bird. Before deciding to send all Of
the hens over two years old to the car
cass market, ascertain what each of
them Is doing in the way Of egg pro-
duction. Then, too, these old hens,
many Of them, are extremely useful at
Matching season, even though the main
dependence Is placed ON an incubator.
Be sure the old hen has lost her useful
ness before you sentence her to the
block.

Making a Garden.

The home garden is for the afec-
lions. 1t is for quality. Its size Is
wholly immaterial If only it have the
best. I do not mean the rarest Or the
costliest, but the best-the best gera-
mum or the best lilac. Even the fruit
garden and the vegetable garden are
also for the affections; one can buy
ordinary fruits and vegetables-it new
err pays to grow them in the home gar
den. When you want something supe
rior you must grow 1t or else buy II
at an advanced price directly from
someone who grows the very choicest
and the most personal products almost
necessarily you must grow them; the
value Of these things cannot be meas
ured in money. The commercial gar
dener may grow what the market
wants, and the market wants chiefly
what is cheap and good-leoking. The
home gardener should grow what the
market cannot supply. else the home
garden is not worth the whfle.-Coun'

TIL. M.rwho Knows How.

Is it not strange that in every county
and in almost every precinct that you
may visit there Is at leafs one farmer
known as a corn grower? He rarely
or never fails. The dry and the wet
seasons come and go, but he makes
corn" and "sells corn" So In every
county there is found the man who
grows his own meat" and regardless
of cholera and bad crops keeps his
smokehouse on his own farm. This
peculiar man is sometimes a success
full truck grower or fruit raiser. He
may assume one Of several forms, but
we may safely call him "Mr. Know
How" The average farmer often
looks upon him as somewhat Of con-
jurer, but at bottom we find his sue
cess due to intelligent effort. Intelli-
gence can insure crops in the face OF
disease, chinch bug, boil weevil. boil
worm, drought-yes, and floods, too

Doing the Spring Flowing.

Do1ng the Spring Flowing.
with the vision of acres of soil to
ploW before him, the farmer begins to
see the advantages of fall blowing
under certain conditions. If a portion
OF the soil was plowed in the fall, all
necessary this spring Is to harrow it
ana prepare the seed bed. If the bulk
OF the blowing is to be done this
spring the first to be plowed should be
the sod land. This is contrary to the
operations Of most farmers, who pre-
rer to get all the growth possible in
the early spring to turn under, but
there are advantages in early blowing
or sod land to Offset any that may
come from obtaining the grass growth
to turn under. If the sod land is plow-
ed early it will resist drought much
better for in its preparation for a crop
the sun will have no chance to dry it
out rapidly, as it will later if the plow-
Ing Is left until then. Then, too, there
Is the advantage of being able to get
out to sod land before it would be pos
s1ble to put pillow into soil that has
been under cultivation. Try the plan
this year and compare the crop with
that in former years when the sod
land was the last to be plowed.-St

Farm Notes.

It Is unwise to keep more stock than
can be accommodated with good shell
ter and a variety Of food. Good care
comes back In the form Of increase in
yield Of product or weight Of the ami
mails, but In the attempt to keep too
many, thus crowding them, the ami
mails will not thrive as we'll as when
the number Is smaller.
The farmer who can sell an article
from his farm without taking from the
land any of its fertilizing elements, is
sure to make profit If the cost Of the
labor Is not too heavy. When fat Is
stored on an animal. or butter Is q
product, the soil loses none of its fer
tility, as ell Of the starch, sugar and
fat on the farm comes from the air.
Plants absorb carbonic acid gas and
give off oxygen through the agency Of
their leaves, and it Is this carbon in
the plants which finally becomes con-
verted into butter, lard, suet, etc.

Told by General Gordon.

General John B. Gordon of Georgia,
says that one day he was srolling over
the field Of battle when he found one
of his men, an Irishman, talking ear
nestly to dead Federal soldier.
Faith" said the soldier, Il am sorry
for We, poor old fellow, but you don't
need those shoes; you're dead now, an
I'll just take EN-" The Confederate
General says the Irishman then pulled
off the dead mans shoes and put them
on his own feet.
Another one he tells is that a prayer
meeting was held in camp, and one Of
the soldiers was called ON to pray.
"Oh, Lord said the praying soldier,
eve are in the midst of terrible bat
tie and in an awful lot Of trouble. We
hope you will take proper view of the
matter and give us the victory"

soldier" the General said, jokingly,

vate along to vouch for his veracity.s

A New Method or Paro1ing.


When the Southern General, Jen-
kins, was In Hagerstown, Nd, in 1853,
a lieutenant and five men, wearing the
uniform of Union soldiers, crept out
of some of the houses of the town
where they had been hiding, and de1iv-
cred themselves up. When they made
their appearance before General Jen-
kins the following conversation oc-
Cured:
Jenkins-Hello! Who are you, and
where did you come from?
Lieutenant-We belong to the I'm
ion army, or did belong to it, but we
didn't wish to fight any longer against
our Southern brethren! so when our
forces left here we stayed behind, and
to-day we came out to be paroled.
yenkins-What did you say about
Southern brethren?' If 1 thought
had a twenty-ffth cousin yho, was as
white-livered as you are, would kill
him and set him up in my barnyard
to make sheep own their lambs. I'll
show you how parole such as you
are. You are too miserable to be pa
rolled in military style.
So saying, he ordered a detail Of six
men and sergeant-"good lusty fell
lows with thick boots"-who paroled
the recreant Federals to the west Dor
der of the town, where the paroling
process ceased, and the detail and the
crowd returned, highly pleased with

Baby Beef.

II the farmer will produce baby beef

Capital is turned annually instead OF
once in every three years. The farm

per cent more pounds Of baby beef
than It will of beef from the mature
steer, and for the past three years the
baby beef animal has sold for as high
prices per hundred as has the average
steer.
In producing baby beef the farmer
can market his heifer calves at the
