How does one generation of men
succeed another? The fathers are not
swept away In body to make room
for the children, but one by one the
old drop off and the young come on
until a day is reached when none of
those remain that once were here. How
does some form of human speech be
come extinct? About 100 years ago an
old lady named Dolly Dentreath died
in Cornwall. She could speak the
Cornish language After her death
there was nobody that could. Thus
quietly did the living Cornish language
become dead language. And i'm like
unobtrusive manner have been wrought
most of the new becomings which
have changed and are changing the
earth.-John Fiske In Harper's.

Fighting Lizards.

The ring necked lizard Of the Arizona
deserts is not mere devourer Of weak
lings. He is always ready to fight,
whether he is challenged by another or
cornered by man. When brought to
bay in some hole, he opens his Jaws
and dashes bravely out, swapping at
everything which opposes him, and so
fierce and sudden is his rush that II 10
impossible TO face ii without fiinching.
BY holding two of these lizards loosely
by the small of the back and allowing
their heads to clash as they struggle
TO escape, one may be able to induce
combats such as must occur every day
In the desperate lizard world.
Forgetting that they were captives,
they would seize upon each other and
vent their thwarted rage to the utmost
In fight which. but for timely inter-
ference, would doubtless lead to the
death of one or the other. Such bull
dog pugnacity is rather unlocked for in
lizards, but student of character
could easily read in the set jaw and
pouched throat Of this species the signs
OF fighting blood.-Country Life In
America.

Too Much Food.

Much of the sinking. tired and empty
feeling from which business men who
work their brains alone so often suffer
is due to the accumulation Of toxins in
the system which want working off"
Two meals Il day and active exercise
are the preventive, and there is no ex-
ercise which can be got at any time
and by anybody to the extent that
walking can, But to do good it must
not be sauntering. Really smart"

Dark Forcing Rhubarb.

The practice OF dark forcing rhubarb
Is growing and will, we believe, super
sede all of the older methods, such as
forcing under greenhouse benches
erecting glass structures In the field
steam forcing. etc, says Rural New
Yorker. Reports from the Ohio exper-
iment station are To the effect that for
the past three years they have been
following the methods with great sue
cess. They claim that the dark fore
ing has two very distinct advantages
over any of the older methods first,
the superior quality. and. second, the
larger yield. This latter proposition
must be self evident to any who have
tried II, as the almost entire absence OF
leaf growth allows the whole strength
of the root TO go to the stalk. They
also recommend growing in small
quantities for family use when the
commercial features are not admissible

be necessity where corn and other
grain crops are largely raised, as is
the case more and more, especially in
the dairy portions OF our country.
There need to be more system and
uniformity in this business. A change
should be made from the practice too
much followed of taking up pieces
here and there all over the farm for
tile pillow.
There should be some well defined
plan OF what Is wanted i'm the way OF
crops. and then divide the land that is
TO be devoted to the cultivated crops

with the size of the farm.

Origin Of .Watered stock /,

The expression ''watered stock"
which describes so well the expansion
of the stock of company beyond the
value of the property, originated. 1t is
said, in connection with Daniel Drew,
who was once the wealthiest and most
unique manipulation in Wall street
Drew had been drover in his younger
days. and ii was said of him that be-
fore selling his cattle in the market he
would first give them large quantities
of salt to make them thirsty and then
provide them with all the water they
could drink. In this way their weight
was greatly increased, and the pur-
chaser was buying "watered stock. ~

Old poIa

In THE Arabian Nights" we read of
wise sage who cured a great king by
a decoction with which he anointed the
handle of a stick with which the king
was in the habit of playing game at
ball, to the end that when the royal
hand perspired in the vigor OF the play
the open pores might receive the med
lcament
The translator speaks of this stick as
golf stick" (sic). but It is plain from
the context that the game was played
on horseback. 1t was. in fact. polo.
Indeed the Illustrations of the very
same edition show the said king play
Ing the game on horseback.

MuIching Strawberries.

Strawberries are mulched in winter
near Norfolk, Va, with pine straw
from the forests, although more often
a crab grass mulch is allowed to grow
Most fields are picked one year only,
but some are carried two years Some
growers do nothing to the beds the
second year, while others narrow
down the beds with pillow and scrape
out the grass as with young planta-
tons. About March beds are top
dressed with about 60C pounds of qua
no containing ! or s per cent potash
and from 10 per cent ammonia. Too
much ammonia decreases the yield. on
two-year-old beds 1000 pounds or more
are used.

The Big Corn CrOp.

a corn crop of 2,500.000O00 bushels
is suggestive of such farm wealth as to
be almost incomprehensible, says an
exchange. yet that is the approximate
amount now being secured and brought
ont in American Agriculturist's final
report. Best OF all, the crop promises
good returns to farmers,
whether sold in the grain or converted
into live stock and dairy products. Corn
for midwinter delivery Is now selling
nj figures materially above earlier years
of liberal output, and this is due large
ly TO the practical exhaustion of the
corn crop of 1901. Now for conserva-
tive marketing and judicious feeding.
