ceptible to alcohol than those OF any
other age The former is a period pc
culiarly characterized by Intellectual
advance. and one during which the hab-
its tend to become independent and
fixed; the other is an epoch during
which the struggle for existence makes
itself felt in the fullest force, and it is
also an age during which. as Lewis
points ont, the feeble and Indifferent or
ganisms often feel the want OF artificial
stimulus, TO the use of which they often
succumb.
The relation between drink and insan-
ity is far more intimate than it was at
one time believed to be. Perhaps the
assertion that drink is the most potent
cause OF mental disorders would now
pass without cavil Certainly the brain
is the organ which is most disastrously
affected by excessive indulgence in al
cOhOl, for although other organs may
be seriously injured, the outcome of the
habit is more frequently mental dissolu-
tion.-Journal of Inebriety.

MIDSUMMER FARM WORK.

Rotation is a decided source of fer

Good manure is better than boughten

Don't hurry; take time to do your
work right
Don't stop hoeing in midsummer and
let the fields seed themselves with bur-
dock, purslane, golden-rod, etc.
If you desire to rid land of sprouts,
once and for all time, grub thoroughly
during August. But if you prefer a
yearly lifetime task, grub at any other
season.
You will obtain higher prices from
buyers if your farmyard and buildings
are kept in good order. Defects are
expected in products from carelessly
kept farms.
Keep land busy with cowpeas among
the corn. AS soon as the corn and peas
are harvested, rye or some winter grow
ing crop should be sown. 1t keeps the
land from teaching and wasting dur
ing the fall and winter. 1t will fur
nish pasture, if required, or it may be
turned under in the spring to add hui
mus to the soil.-Farm and Home.

AN ALCOHOLIZED INTELLECT.
What an Autopsy showed in the Case
of Man Who Had Died sud
denly mt Kansas City.

A man died suddenly in Kansas City,
leaving to the world a strangely i'm
pre5sive record of a blighted life. The
physicians upon cutting open his
skull found his brain immersed in al
cOhol, the fumes of which filled the
room. Evidently a heavy drinker,'
was the verdict of the physicians.
The physical tragedy that must have
preceded this event is quite familiar.
Psychologists tell us how that dread
despoiler, alcohol, making its way
through the system, is rejected by an
outraged stomach, spurned by an in
dignant heart, thrust through the
arteries, straining and distending
them, crisping, parching and charring
them so that they cannot perform their
functions, at last bursting them and
allowing the blood and alcohol to
flow in among the nerves and brain,

5 TWO KINDS OF WEEDS.
One Is Human, the Other Vegetable,
and the World Has No Use for
Either of Them.

John Burroughs somewhere calls
weeds "the tramps of the vegetable
kingdom" The analogy is very fit
ting; for, like the human tramp, these
vegetable Migrants range from the
picturesQuely goOd-for-nothing to the
positively vicious Sympathy or even
tolerance for either is misplaced and
worse than useless. The tramp is in
deed one OF the worlds unfortunates
and a certain sort of pity is due him
for his fallen estate. but he cannot be
brought back to self-respect and hon
est toll by aims nor mawkish philan-
thropy. His disease can only be cured
by work. To feed him without an at
tack on the wOodpile as a condition
precedent, is to put premium upon
his idleness. 1t is a fine and beauti-
full thing to see the sweet, young
matron giving a piece of bread and
meat to the unkempt bleary animal
VINO asks for a bite to assuage the
pangs of hunger, and many a tender
hearted man says in a self-gratulatory
way, as one who offers a ticket for a
AiohC seat III TdTdulSe. 1 never turn
hungry man away from my door"
This is an especially blessed thing for
the giver, but it is not the best gift
for the recipient. Aims debases the
receiver and confirms him in his weed
mess. There is no place in this good
and bad world for weeds. whether two
legged or one-legged. The struggle
for existence writes their doom thus.
as the fittest survive and multiply:
Get in line or get out" Either our
vegetable and human parasites must
show their reason for existence in the
economy of things (Which is admitted
ly human conception) or they must
make way for that which is useful or
beautiful.-Rural World.

France and Spain. They make a noise
very like geese.
And they build themselves curious
nests of mud and earth scraped together
so as to form a small hillock with a
hole on the top. Sometimes the hillock
is as much as % or "a inches high.
In the countries where they are found
they go about in flocks of 300 or 400 to-
gether. When they are feeding senti-
mel flamingoes stand at each end of
the flock to give notice of any approach
ing danger. These sentinels don't at
tempt to eat till the others have fin
ished, but stand with necks erect and
heads constantly turning, always keep
ing a sharp lookout.
When flying they form themselves
into bands, each band evidently being
under the command of leader, and in
spite of their long necks and legs they
are wonderfully graceful.
Like lots of other long-legged birds,
flamingoes love to stand on one leg and
tuck the other up out of sight.-Phila-
delphia Globe.

WiIIie's Bad Table Manners.

Williams table manners were noto-
riously bad-so bad that he was face
tiously accused of spelling the manners
of pet coon chained in the back yard.
He gripped his fork as though afraid
it was going to get away from him,
and he used it like a hay-fork. Re-
proaches and entreaties were in vain.
His big sisters pleading: please, Will
liam, don't eat like pig" made no i'm
preston upon him. One day William
and his bosom friend, small neighbor.
dined alone, and William was heard
to say in tone of great satisfaction
as he planted both elbows on the table:
Say, Harry they's nobody here but us.
Let's eat like hogs and enjoy ourselves"

BEEF-PRODUCING FOODS.
Important Conclusions Reached by
Prof. MumfOrd of the Illinois
Experiment Station.

Having already referred to an i'm
portant cattle feeding experiment re-
Gently conducted at the Illinois station
by Prof. H. w. Mumford, we present
some Of the chief conclusions reached,
taken from bulletin No SO:
l. This experiment indicates that corn
may be supplemented with clover hay, a
heterogeneous roughage, in such a way
that its influence will be practically as
beneficial as the supplementing of corn
with heterogeneous concentrate, such as
gluten meal
z. That where clover hay or some
other heterogeneous roughage is not avail
able for Supplementary the corn crop
in fattening steers, heterogeneous con-
centrate like gluten meal is highly ad-
vantageous.
3. That neither the corn ration sup
plemented by the use of heterogeneous
roughage on the one hand nor Of nj
trogenous concentrate on the other,
proved to be an ideal ration. 1t is be-
lieved that some ju1icious combination
of the two yet to be determined will be
found more satisfactory and profitable
than either
4. A ration of corn, timothy hay and
corn stover has little to recommend it
for beef production. 1t is not favorable
for the production of large, rapid or
economical gains; nor is the beef
produced by such a ration desirable. 1t
required Is pounds more grain and 4
pounds more roughage to produce each
pound of grain where timothy hay sup
plemented corn than where clover hay
was used
