LAWS 4soo YEARS OLD.
They Did Not Recognize Murder as
Crime,

a
Crime.
Light upon the age of human laws
is furnished by a slab of black stone
unearthed at PersepolIs last year by
j. de Morgan, an antiquary working
for the French Government, says the
New York World. The monument
contains a picture of King Hammurabi
receiving his laws from the seated sun
god Samas.
Hammurabl has been 1900 years
dead, but his code doesn't seem so old
fashioned. II recognizes the widows
thirds" Of her husbands real estate.
The custom of making Wills was al
ready established man could not
directly will his property out of the
family. II he wished to benefit a
stranger to the blood" he had first to
adopt him.
The husband could leave his prop
erty to his wife. and she could leave
1t to guch of her children as she
chose. but not TO her brothers. More
over. father could leave marriage
portion to a daughter vowed to re-
llgion. and her brothers had no claim
on the property.
The complexity of the law of mar
riage settlements points to a state OF
civilization Ike that Of modern soci-
ETY.. Save in exceptional circumstances,
only one wife was legal Slavery ex-
!yted, but marriage between slaves
and free women was recognized; and
II the slaves wife lived under the roof
Of his master that master acquired no
rights over her or her property. The
issue OF the marriage were apparently
free
Adopted sons gained rights only to
personal property. Votarles or vestal
virgins were allowed to marry by dep
uty and had wives property rights.
So in Roman law vestal virgin, In
order to enable the temple to receive
legacies, was assumed to have three
children.
This $500 year-old code has an elab-
crate law of agency and provisions for
labor regulations, but did not recog.
nize murder as crime. 1t was merely
Il question of damage, payable to the
relatives

Farm Note..

The man Or woman who does not
know how to keep up rotation in the
garden crops is not up to present day
privileges.
If there is anything that is better
than another on hot day it is water
from a jug. One never knows when
to let go. The feeling is that one
would like to freeze to it," and enjoy
it forever.
The longer the calf is left with its
dam the harder 1t will be to teach it
to drink. The longer it is left with
the cow the harder it will be to wean,
and the more foolish the COW will act
when weaving is attempted.
Don't kick the hogs for rushing
around you for their meals. 1t is your
own fault. If you would feed them
as you should. you would not be in
such a hurry II you must kick. give
yourself a good Dig jolt for not feeding
better.
1t is very good plan TO keep all
grain sacks and similar property

of proving dishonesty, but a matter
of convenience TO h. We them so

The commercial fertilizer used annu-
ally In the United States amounts to
between S40O00.O00 and $4,000, 600.

tect the farmer from fraud. The heav-
lest applications are made In the
southern States In soue Of the prai-
rie States hardly any commercial fer
tiIizers are sold
The finest AMI softest wool is al

Like the running brook, the
red blood that flows through
the veins has to come from
somewhere.
The springs of red blood are
found in the soft core of the
bones called the marrow and
some say red blood also comes
from the spleen. Healthy bone
marrow and healthy spleen
are full of fat.
SCOTS Emulsion makes new
blood by feeding the bone
marrow and the spleen with
the richest of all fats, the pure
cod liver oil.
For pale school girls and
in lalids and for all whose
blood is thin and pale, SCOTS
Emulsion is a pleasant and rich
blood food. 1t not only feeds
the blood-making organs but
gives them strength to do
their proper work.

Pinchiur berry Buahes.

The ideal treatment for raspberries
and blackberries is TO pinch them back
ut intervals during the summer and
thus secure strong. sturdy bushes three
and one-half to four feet high, with
laterals from one to one and One-half
feet long, rather than TO practice the
severe heading back after the plants
have become long and 'Ieggy." II,
however, as is frequently the case in
the best managed gardens. the plants
are at this season making vigorous
growth which may not mature, they
should at once be cut back TO the de-
sired height and the canes will harden
before cold weather. Many prefer to
cut back the bushes in the spring.
Thinning the canes, which should al
ways be practiced. may be done at any
time during the season. In general,
one-half or more Of the young canes
which appear should be cut out. Black
berry and raspberry bushes may be
transplanted in the fall, but better re-
suits are usually obtained from spring
piantings.-Maine Experiment Station.

A Land of Small Farmers.

From a recent report ON agriculture
in Germany. it appears that of the
total agricultural area of 125,000,oO0
acres in Germany three fourths are ac-
tually under the plow or in eultiva-
ton as meadows, pastures and hop
are cultivated for market garden and
vineyard produce. The area is divided
into 100000 holdings, and is princi-
pally in the hands of small peasan.s
and farmers. These peasant holdings
of from two and a half to Eve acres
form the backbone of German agricul-
ture.

there should be some device for load

kind one can have. 1t should be made
strong, yet light so that it can be cas-

should not be too sharp. With load

The wonders Of Moaern Farmlng.


The Wonders of Modern Farming.
All the great crops are now planted,
and all except cotton are gathered by
machinery. Let US follow crop
throughout q seasons work and see
the changes that have come IN its
treatment.
The plowman no longer trndges slow
iy and YEARLY back and forth across
his field. He rides sulky plow with
spring seat. There are special plows
for every need-turf plows, stubble
plows. subsoil plows plows for heavy
work. plows for light work, and gang
plows turning three burrows at once.
So simple are many of them that a boy
may drive one. Flowing by steam is
not commonly practieed In the Middle
West. but out on the great wNeat
rancAas of the Pacific coast 1t is com

can be broken. This means that man
and pair of horses with a single

field twenty-eight times 10 do the
same work that the traction engine
does by one trip of its plows. A farm

costs him from 80 to g. cents per acre
to break his ground. He considers

The land made ready for the recep-

the work that MUSCLE used to do. The
sower goes forth to SOW, but not as he
once did, dropping his seed into the
soil, trudglng backward and forward
from dawn until twilight. His grass
or his grain is broadcasted or drilled
In with mechanical evenness, and the
machine automatically registers the
acreage sown. In like manner his corn
is drilled in, listed or planted in hills,
his potatoes are planted, and even his
cabbage, his cauliflower and his tobac-
co plants from the seed beds are set
out by machinery, and the work is
done better than 1t could possibly be
by hand this. besides the saving of
time and toll Even IN the vegetable
