What the Farmer Should Know.

In agriculture, as in manufactures,
success consists in securing the largest
and best production at the smallest ex
penditure Of force, time. and money.
Evidently the farmer who aims at such
success must have an understanding
Of plant life and what proportion of it's
sustenance it draws respectively from
the air and the soil He must know
the chemical constituents Of the latter,
and the treatment which it requires to
restore the plant food exhausted by
his crops. He must have a knowledge
Of the climates demanded by different
cereals, vegetables and fruits. He must
be acquainted with the diseases and in
sect pests which endanger both plant
and animal life, and should know how
to treat them. He should be familiar
with the principles Of animal nutrition
and the value Of foods. In addition to
all the expert knowledge required,
there are those mental qualities which
are developed by scientific training-a
keen perception and an alert habit OF
mind, a full appreciation Of the value
Of facts and hospitality to new ideas,
together with that f1eXibility which en-.
ables its possessor to adapt himself
more readily to changed conditions.
Evidently the farmer Of the future will
not be "the man with the hoe. Josiah
Strong, in Success.

CHAPTER II.

Mrs Conway was not wearing the will
low for her wandering nephew. On the
contrary, her elegant rooms constantly
witnessed merry gatherings, where mirth
and music reigned supreme. She was still
handsome woman, and the world of So
ciety, fashion and folly held her as one
of it's leaders The delicate state of her
health had improved, she had dispensed
with her fair companion, and on a sweet
spring night, just four years from the
date of the beginning Of this story, she
was giving a splendid ball in honor Of the
wife of the distinguished Senator Winans
of Virginia.
The elite of Norfolk was gathered
there the house was garnished with
wreaths and garlands of flowers. Music
rose voluptuously over all, and the proud
hostess moved among her guests looking
young for her ffty-four years, in the sea:
green silk and misty laces that accorded
so we'll with her dark eyes and hair, GD,
sweetly smiling mouth. But under all
her brightness and gayety Mrs. Conway
carried an uneasy pans IN her proud
heart. It was the neglect of her idoliled
nephew. For many months no news had
come of the traveller. He had roved from
one end of Europe to the other, and wear
led of it all, but still talked not Of coming
home, and his aunt missed him sadly.
In the midst of the music and dane
ing a stranger crept to the door Of the
anteroom, and looked anxiously in
Bruce Conway. A little thinner, little
bronzed by travel, q little more grave
looking, but every bit as handsome rs
the dashing young fellow who had gam
bled with a meteor for his chance Of hap
piness and-lost
Was he looking for his aunt? Twice
she passed near enough to have touched
him with her hand, but he smiled and
let her pass on, not dreaming of his nea
presence.
At last his eyes encountered what
they sought, and, half unconsciously, he
drew nearer, and scanned the peerless
vision framed in the doorway of thu
conservatory, in the soft but brilliar
light of the wax-lights half-hidden il
flowers.
Was she a creature of this lower
earth? He had thought, that spring
four years ago, with Grace Grey at II,
leaning on his arm, looking into his face
in the moonlight, that she was more a
creature of heaven than earth. He
thought so again tonight, as he looked
at nGr leH1luS Luere wLueI LuS dLCu VI
flowers that framed the conservatory
door. He thought of all the living love.
Illness, the sculptured perfection, IT,
radiant beauty that seemed to breath,
on the canvas-all he had seen in his
wanderings from shore to shore--and
nothing he could recall was half so elo-
rious as Grace Grey at q, in her calm
repose, standing quietly looking on at
the scene, seeming herself, to the fasci-
mated eyes that beheld her, like young
angel strayed away from paradise.

COAL MEN SET FREE.
Chicago Judge Instructs a Jury to
Acquit the Coal Barons.

NniC0GO Judge JuA "
Acquit the Coal Rarons.
Judge Chetlain, sitting in Chicago, put
an end to the prosecution of the coal OPP
orators indicted by the recent special
grand jury for illegal combination and
conspiracy in restraint of public trade.
On the ground that the transactions
which formed the basis of the charges
were interstate commerce, and, as such
the case was taken away from the jury
on an instruction to return a verdict of
mot guilty" and the defendants were
set at liberty. Judge Chetlain's decision
that he was without jurisdiction in the
matter was, he said, given with much re-
luctance.
The defendants and their counsel, ac-
cording to a dispatch, were the happiest
crowd of men that ever filed out of a
criminal court with a verdict in their
favor. When, during the course of Judge
Chetlain's reading, it became apparent
that he was to rule adversely to the
State their spirits rose to such an alti-
tude that it was with difficulty that they
were restrained.
The action of the court came as q sur
prise to many who have followed the
case and was not relished by the prose-
cution, as it figured it had builded up a
strong case. Judge Chetlain, however,
decided that the defendants were amen
able to the law, but said that they must
be prosecuted, if prosecuted further at
all, in the United States courts, as the
State courts had no jurisdiction.
