scientific Farming.

".
Scientific farming In this country is
In ito infancy. II anyone is inclined to
doubt this let him investigate the sit.
uation in Germany, where al farming
on : large scale is based on an exact
knowledge Of the soil This includes
not only the elements contained in the
soil, but its underlying strata, expos
ure, elevation, and surroundings. wheth-
er shaded BY adjacent woodlands or
bulldogs. and especially its suscepti-
bility to natural efficient drainage
There II no careless hit.or. miss guess
work q to what the soil may lack or
what it contains. The agricultural and
technical schools of Germany have
trained an army Of practical chemists,
expert in the analysis Of soils. and f.
miliar with the elemental requirements
Of every plant known to German hus-
bandry. The effective value of every
kind Of fertilizer. It's influence on crops
planted in sand, clay or loan, and the
efficacy Of clover. lucerne and other
growths when plowed in to enrich soils
in nitrogen, are accurately Known. The
Ministry Of Agriculture, through its
system Of experimental stations. has
worked out the whole problem Of varie-
ties. soils, methods Of planting, cult
vation and harvesting; the farmer, has
only to follow the methods that modern
science had made easy and plain, and
with reasonably favorable sunshine and
his result is secure.

The Limit.

The Minneapolis Journal speaking Of
the Chicago livery drivers says: The
livery drivers Of Chicago are now essay
ing of late the much worked role of de-.
monstrating to the American public
how obnoxious the strike leader can
sometimes make himself when ne tries
night hard Yesterday funerals that
had already begun were stopped be.
cause the drivers went on strike and
people were reduced to tho humiliation
of seeing their dead indecorously car.
ried to the last resting place in express
wagons and the like. Even persons
having private carriages did not dare to
use them to attend funerals for fear of
violence from the strikers. Only
strong display of police force kept one
funeral from being violently asssiled
by . bowling mob.
When union labor gets to this point
of arrogant disregard of public com.
fort, rights and feelings it is treading
on dangerous ground It is adding
little more to the rapidly growing fire
that will some day consume labor
unions unless they change their ways

not contribute to the support Of our
schools and churches. does not have
to carry large stock Of goods for
which there is no rapid sale. sells his
goods at profit and leaves without .

Of a lot of cheaper stuff at good stiff
profit on the encouragement Of the

would not be willing to allow . home

City Versus Country Life.

:
At a meeting of number of business
men and farmers held recently At the
farm of one of the party, near Lincoln
Neb the question of city versus coun.
try life was discussed. E. p. Brown,
who few years ago left : successful
law practice to take up agricultural
pursuits, spoke Of his experience Is .
gractical farmer: 4
The same elements enter into the
business OF farming as go to make any
other calling successful There must
be the opportunity, the brains, the
common sense, the energy and the
weather, with modicum Of luck. all
Of which enter into other occupations.
l farm 100 acres of land. with the help
OF one man. I have had some experience
in business as banker, and some pro-
fessional experience in the practice OF
saw, and must say that the manage
ment Of the farm costs me less in tho
expenditure of energy that takes the
life out of man than did either Of the
other occupations that have followed.
"As to the financial side Of the case
I am able to make good return for my,
and good income besides.
and when consider thst can accom-
plish this without sacrificing any of
those qualities of the mind and soul
that make life worth living, and which
are the only things that can be taken
with ue when we pass on, I feel that
the rewards Of the farm are great
enough" T9
John B. Wright. president Of the
Columbia National Bank, said the best
man could make was
farm in the corn belt of the United
States. He declared every acre Of corn
land was worth 800, and predicted
that the time is not far distant when
the price Of corn would rule along with
or higher than that of wheat. Others
present concurred in the opinion.

VIOLIN FROM logsrERs dsH.

The only violin IN the wer5f zss6s
from the claw Of g1snt Iessssy sas
just been completed By John RI. Dad
mum. Of 40 Berkeley street, Camden,
n. J. This unique instrument, strange
to say, can be made TO produce az
sweet musical tones as any hgh-ctsss
violin. Its owner gives the following
as the story Of its life:
The lobster from which the claw
was taken was caught of Gloucester.
Mass, in March, 1862 In time it came
to Concord, n. H., where Mr.. Dadnun
saw 1t. At that time the lobster weigh
ed 171a pounds. A single claw weigh
ed 5A pounds. The claw that Mr..
Dadmun preserved, after the lobster
had gone the way Of such things, was
1sA inches long, Z inches broad and
3A inches thick.
Preserved among other curfosities Of
the Dadmun household, the giant claw
remained a claw for many years One
day it occurred to its owner that It
was shaped something like a violin.
and he tried the experiment of fash
Joining 1t to look more like that popular
instrument. After much patient effort
Mr. Dadmun managed to transform
the claw into violin that could be

fashioned cut-his trousers are black
and wrinkled from the knee clear
down to his plain, old-fashioned boots.
Loosely tied over an expanse of white
shirt Is soft black neckerchief-a
stock, you might say, Of the period of
Henry Clay.
Judge Gary Is now completing his
fortieth year of continuous service in
the Superior Court bench of Cook
County, ILL.,, a record unequaled by any
elective jurist in the United States.
He is a product Of the State Of New
York, but Of Puritan extraction. He
was born at Potsdam, st. Lawrence
County, in 1921. His parents were Eli
Bush Gary and Orilla Easton Gary.
To-day he Is not only older in point Of
years and judicial service than any
other Judge in Illinois, but he is also
perhaps the wittiest, most satirical and
in some respects the most picturesque
figure who has ever occupied seat on
the bench in the Middle West. Though
a man of few words, brusque in man
ner, keen in wit and often cutting in
sarcasm, seeking neither publicity nor
applause, Judge Gary's popularity has
increased as he has advanced in years.
Snow-haired and bowed with his four
score years, he is still alert physically
and mentally. He pays close attention
to witnesses. clipping short their YER
bosity, reproving their indiscretions
and punctuating the questions Of coun-
sci with wit and apt inquiries of his
own. He looks like picture of
Adolphe Theirs.
For long time after he presided in
the trial Of the anarchists his house
was guarded by the police. but this
was not done at his request. Detect
ives also kept him under their eyes in
his walks about the city. But these
precautions are taken no longer.
Though he was often threatened and
warned during the excitement follow
ing the Haymarket riots. he never
showed fear. Anarchists Parsons, Spies
and their six COMPANIONS were con-
victed of the murder of Police Officer
Matthias Dean in May. 1886. Seven
received the sentence Of death and
one was sent to the penitentiary for
seventeen years. During the trial and
afterward the friends of the accused
bitterly denounced Judge Gary for his
rulings and conduct Of the case. But
his decisions were sustained in the
State and Federal Supreme courts, and
his course went far toward solving the
problem of dealing with an element
which had announced it's antagonism
to organized society and sought to de-
stroy the whole fabric of enlightened
civilization.

Waterways in Europe.

1t is evident that the value of water
ways is fully understood in Europe.
France, for example, has spent $780,
100000 on these works during the
years 1S79-19OO, and has increased the
total length of her waterways from
9O6 miles to 1880 miles, including 4O1
miles of newly-constructed canals.
Austria has spent $1O5, 100000 on
waterways in the years 1S4S-1S9S. But
the greatest advance Of all has been
made by Germany. In 1882 the num-
Der Of steamers on her waterways was
$50, representing 33, 155 tons. By
1897 this number had risen to 1853
steamers, with 104, 800 tons. The
length of her waterways in 1900, ac-
cording to Imperial statistics, was g.
79S miles. The total length of British
waterways in 1896 was 3,511 miles. ex-
elusive of ship canals.

A Poets Pastine.

It was not only as boy that
Wordsworth
Shod with steel, hissed along the polished
@ ice. *.
He was a skater of skill in his man
hood. "a girt skater; moan better in
these parts" was the testimony of a.
Dales man, quoted by Canon Rawns-
ley in his Lake Country Sketches"
On one occasion the poet went by
himself to figure bit upon the White
Moss Tarn, and a man sent boy to
sweep the snow from the ice for him.
When the boy returned from his labor
the man asked:
'Well, did Mr.. Wordsworth gle ye
owt?"
''Nay," rejoined the boy, with grin
of content from ear to ear. Il seed
him tunmle, thor
But the lad, who had thought the
tumble a fair equivalent for a tip, had
been much impressed by the quiet way
in which Wordsworth had borne his
fall. His skate had caught in a stone
when he was in full swing, and he
came down with a crash.
''He didn't swear nor say owt," said
the boy, "but he just sot up an said,
.'Eh, boy, that was a bad fall, wasn't
it ?"
