BOTTOM OF TOPPING BENCH.

which are also four inches wide, one
inch apart. Nail firmly and clinch the
mills. placing the outside strips flush
with the ends Of the crosspieces, as the
first cut shows Around the edge nail a
six inch strip, and the topping bench is
done.
When ready to begin topping place
this bench on top Of two crates If you
wish to sit at your work or on top OF
two barrels IL you wish TO stand. In ii
empty the onions from the crates. As
You pour out ench crate rustic the
onions around. and all the dirt and
other small stuff which may have been
gathered mp with them will pass
through the Slated bottom. The rus
tllng will brighten ,lp the onions won
derfully. The bench viii hold when
heaped up six crates, or nine bushels.
Place one OF the crates you have emp
tied at your left, and, sitting erect on
crate. you are ready FOR operations.
To begin with. you must have a sharp
knife. ana keep II sharp. as a duh one
will surely tear the skin of the onion,
and as soon as that is done II begins
to rot. 1t may seem a simple operation
10 cut OF an onion ton. but there IS a
right way and n wrong one. The wrong
way is to seize the onion and cut the
top Off by drawing the knife toward
the body This cuts the top or on the
opposite side from your body and tears
the onion down the other side. The
right way TO top is 20 hold the onion
firmly in the left hand and with the
knife seize the top an inch from the
bulb and cut mp. This makes a clean
cut through the top.
Never top onions close to the bulb
unless you want them 10 begin to grow
at once. and do not top them until you
want to market them. as they keep bet
ter with the tops on. In the old way,
unless spread thin, tbs rule does not
apply. as the tops draw moisture
which cnuses the onions 20 heat and
mold, so that they rot and spoil. With
the crate system the onions never heat
or mold. not even if they are put ir
with the tops entirely green. They
win dry ont and come ont splondidly
any time before the next summer.
Handle onions ms you would eggs nj
all times. for a bruise or cut will make
them rot. BY this way OF topping a
good spry boy viii top six bushels an
hour and he Will not feel half as tired
as in the old way.
There is a large shrlnlage in onions
from keeping, not only from rot. but
by shrlnkage Of the bulbs themselves.
I think it IS quite as much or more
than potatoes.

Queer Superstition.


However smart man may be, how

thoughtful man to a reporter Of the New

without his knowing anything about 81.
If you should tell him that he was super
siuous he would resent n. and in no un-
certain way. But all men are supersti-
uous in some way just the same.
There are things about which men
are bit cranky, an dthey develop into
wei rounded superstitions. There Is
Onie Reed, who has a queer notion that
If he gets up Thursday morning without
money in his pocket it is bad luck and
he believes It so firmly that he will not
venture out Of the house and will not turn
his hand to piece of work If 81 happens
to him. He is generally very careful 90

every Wednesday night-Ha nest egg, as
tho saying goes-for Thursday morning
But he sometimes forgets, and suddenly
discovers that he is dead broke That eet-

for superstition You call him super
sttious-weu, you had better do It at long
range.A i know another man in Chicago
who has queer little notion that q is
bad luck to forget anything when you Nre
leaving home in The morning. One morn
ing we had walked TO the car together.
He suddenly turned on me with the state
ment I'm not so to the city today
When I asked him why. he said he had
forgotten sometl ing. It's bad luck he
said, and he was unceremoniously making
tracks for the house when he said it. /
suppose we all have those little notions
md beliefs. but we are not conscious OF
hem, ana so we are apt TO believe. just

Few people have any idea the amount

Cutter, an Eiigi,sh organ Of the trade.
Gentlemen viii run up a bill of $500 or
$1,000 and pay OF perhaps $3.50 and in
crease their indebtedness by a like
amount; while. in addition TO these.
there is the positive loss by intentional
swindlef. who manage somehow to get
introduced, run up a heavy bill and will
not pay.
Take a case in point; A foreigner
called On a well-known firm with a let
ter of introduction from one Of the
firms customers. He ordered goods
and paid for them. He then ordered
some more, and introduced ten other
gentlemen. The firm in question has
not received a penny for any OF the
goods supplied on the second order, or
for those supplied to the ten others.

Park Business Good.

The Northern Paciic's Yellowstone
Park business for the season just
closed. will equal, if not exceed last
years figures.
In 1902 more than 10000 people
passed through the park. However
the COO summer kept thousands OF
tourists at home. and of course the
park suffered in common with the
other resorts. Already preparations
are being made at the park for next
year. All the hotels will be enlarged
and improvements costing several
thousand dollars are to be made. 1t
is anticipated that the 1904 tourists
season will be the largest in the his
tory of the famous resort, as hundreds
of fasteners who come west TO attend
| the ST. Louis worlds fair will visit tn
park before returning.

Mother Wants Complaint Withdrawn,

Fargo Forum: J.. A. GroulX, the
young man who figured yesterday in
police court in a petty larceny case
and entered a plea of guilty to vagran-
cy, seems to have something of a his
tory and has recently been a party
to a number of highly sensational at
fairs. Groulx is a printer by trade.
and prior to coming to Fargo was I'M
ployed at Bismarck, where in the early
part of the summer he was the target
for a ball fired from a revolver in the
hands of a Bismarck dressmaker. The
young lady, whose name is Lindsey,
has never been tried on the charge
and is now residing in Fargo.
At the time of this incident Groulx
was working in Bismarck. On the
night of the shooting there was a dance
in the city, and going home at a late
hour Groulx stopped in front OF a win
dow, looking out of second story rooms
occupied by the Lindsey sisters as
dressmaking parlors and living apart
ments. He called the girls to the win
dow and engaged them in conversation
Later. it is said, he assembled the stairs
and tried to force entrance to thell
rooms. The girls cautioned him. but
is said that he was drunk and did no
heed their advice to go away. and on
S of the sisters pulled a revolver n TOO
a shot at him. She later came to Fal
: 90, where she has since been resldln!
Among the letters found in Groulx
pockets yesterday a one from Mis-
Lindsey's mother, in which she bet
IS the printer to withdraw the complain
against her daughter. stating that 81
: had recently had great grief in the lo'
u by death of another daughter.

New Coat of Arms.

The twenty first infantry, of which
two companies are at Fort Lincoln,
has adopted a new coat of arms. The
design was submitted by a board of
officers consisting of Maj. Hunter Lig-
gett, Capt. Herman Hall and Capt. c.
f. Hampton, Twenty-firs infantry, and
has been formally accepted. 1t is very
handsome and shows on its face the
history of the regiment. On the four
quarters of the shield are shown a
Satire or Greek cross. four arrows. a
crenellated turret and a half sun rep
resenting the four wars in which the
regiment has participated, viz: The
great Rebellion, campaigns against the
Apache, Modoc, Nez Perez and Piute
Indians, Spanish American war and
the Philippine i~nsurrection. In the cen
ter of the shield there are crossed
! rifles. 81 above and U. S. below. Crest:
A twenty-one pointed star. Motto:
