Women Who Lived as Men.

In all countries and in all ages Inere
have been women who lived as men
without their secret being discovered.
Perhaps the best known instance is
that of the celebrated James Barry.
In the early part Of the last century
this person was actually serving as
a doctor in the English army. While
employed in this capacity she was
stationed successfully in South Africa,
Malta, and the West Indies. At Cape-
town, on one occasion she fought
duel with an officer who had taunted
her with effeminacy! Authentic in
stances Of women serving as soldiers,
without their sex being known, are
furnished by the official records Of our
Civil War. Among the cases brought
to light is that Of Charlotte Lindley,
who, as private soldier, took part in
the battles of Fort Magruder and Bull
Run. Another woman, Frances Day
by name, attained the rank Of SER
geant, and was killed in action. On
several different occasions two soldiers
were discharged from the army on ac-
count Of their being found to be
women. Among the different voca-
tions which American women, while
successfully posing as men, have fol-
lowed may be mentioned those of min
ing, hair cutting, printing, bookbind-
ing and piano tuning.

Planting Corn.

Planting corn in drills and in hills is
practiced, and each method has it's
strong supporters. The experiment
stations, however, find no difference in
yield in favor Of either method, so this
leaves the farmer free to do the thing
that suits him best Shallow covering
of seed is especially advantageous DUR
ing the early spring while the ground
Is cool. Later, deep planting may be
followed with good termination. AL
most every corn grower recommends
planting the seed in furrow, whether
1t be the hills or in drills. If fresh
furroW is opened and the seed buried
in it, termination is quickened. Then
at the first cultivation the fine earth is
sifted around the stalks that grow a
little below the surface of the seed bed.
The distance between stalks or the
number of grains to be placed in hill
depends upon the variety Of corn to be
grown and upon the fertility of the
land. If small variety of corn is
planted 1t will grow more stalky to
maturity than will large variety.
Again, if the ground is rich it Will pro-
duce a greater number of stalks than
will an equal area of land almost ex-
hausted of its fertility. If the farmer
will be sure to thin his corn. thick
Planting followed by thinning is not
only the safest plan to get a good
stand. but by proper thinning the
stalks are distributed much more even
ly over the area IT, however there is
danger of neglecting the thinning out
of unnecessary stalks. then do not
plant more than the ground will bear.
If ears areathe chief aim plant in drills
from eighteen to twenty-five inches
apart, or three stalks In a hill three
and half feet apart. If fodder and
ccrn both are wanted. plant in drills
twelve to fourteen inches apart, and
four stalks in the hill

Should Feed Grain.

Farmers who keep young animals on
fodder and other rough food during the
winter, In order to save grain, will lose
valuable time. 1t Is cheaper to feed
grain and force the young stock, so as
to have them come out In the spring
as far advanced as possible. The ex-
perienced breeders of cattle make their
profit by endeavoring to secure the
NEST growth In the shortest time, and
they do not overlook the winter months
or depend upsn pasturage in summer.
To feed only rough food will save grain,
but the young animals will remain at
standstill, >and the growth that should
be made during the winter will be lost.
To fail to push them the first winter
may compel the feeding OF them year
longer, which would add to the expense
and lessen the profit.

He'll guard the barn, and guard the Get,
And keep the cattle out of the lot
I'm not so sure of that" thought Spot,
The big dog under the wagon.
The farmer all his produce sold,
And got his pay in yellow gold,
Then started homeward after dark,
Home through the lonely forest. Hark!
A robber springs from behind a tree
''Your money or else your life" says he;
The moon was up, but he didn't see
The big dog under the wagon.
Spot ne'er barked and Spot ne'er whined,
But quickly caught the thief behind;
He dragged him down in the mire and
dirt,
And tore his coat and tore his shirt,
Then held him fast on the miry ground |;
The robber uttered not a sound
While his hands and feet the farmer
bound,
And tumbled him into the wagon
So Spot, he saved the farmers life,
The farmers money, the farmers wife;
And now the hero, grand and gay,
A silver collar he wears to-day;
Among his friends, among his foes,
And everywhere his master goes,
He follows on his horny toes,
The big dog under the wagon.

When the BOOSTERS Crow.

The feelings of some honest folk from
the country when they visit large city
have been very accurately described by
a Chicago paper, and as this old farmer
says, there's very little difference be-
tween city and country If you only look
for the things which they have in COM
mon..
"I'm all right in Chicago If I can hear
the roosters crow once in WHILE" said
John, "but when don't hear them get
pretty homesick, and want to hurry
back to the old farm in Ford County.
That's why 1 always pick out lodgings
as close as I can get to South Water
street.
81 come up here once in while on
business of my own, and feel at home
well enough down at the stock-yards
in the daytime where the hogs grunt
and the cattle below, but I'm lonesome
at night when can't hear the roosters.
81 reckon If you was down on my
farm a night or two, you'd be mighty
glad to hear street-car gong, or a
steamboat whistle, or wagon clatter-
ing over the stones. When fellow has
heard rooster crow about sunup every
morning for forty years, he doesn't feel
just right when he gets where there are
no roosters.
.'You can talk all you please about
your clean city and your city beauti-
full as the newspapers call 1t, but I'd
rather smell a clover field in this town
when I'm lonesome than the sweetest
flowers you've got on State street,
ST recollect Parson Cross saying once,
in sermon, that a touch Of nature
makes the whole world kin. Somehow
when hear rooster crow up here, or
sheep bleat, or get the smell of stable,
it makes me feel that Chicago people
amt so much different from us on the
farm. after all"

The Dav of sr,au Farm..

Except in the far West the tendency
is toward the small farms. and it is
certainly step in the right direction
In the East the majority of farms
are under 100 acres, and in many sec
tions more money is being made from
thirty acres than 100 Particularly is
this the case where farms are located
near cities or large towns. This same
state of affairs will gradually come
about in the West as the popula ton
increases. If one has large numbers
abundance of fertilizer, and plenty of
help to handle crops which can be sold
at a profit, there is doubtless profit in
the large farm. but where 1t comes to
the choice between using the fertilizer
for fifty acres, common sense teaches
us that 1t would be best to put the fer
tilizer and labor on the smaller area,
even though the rest of the farm stood
idle. Around some of the great cities
Of the country are truckers farms, OF.
rather, gardens. where the land value
is high, on which are raised crops Of
greater value to the acre than are
raised on ten acres Of some of the large
farms in the country. These plots are
evidences Of what can be done under
the Intensive system of farming. which
is based on the principle Of a small
area well titled. II one is located near
good markets it will certainly pay him
to look into the subject Of concentrat-
ing his energies on small area.

scran Picture Books.

I know a boy of nine. who has half
a dozen scrapbooks. They are all
labeled and whenever time hangs
heavy on his hands, as it is likely to
do on rainy Saturdays and Sunday
afternoons, he gets them out and sorts
the pictures, which he has thrown into
box between times. When the Vene-
zuelan war began he saved pictures
and clippings Of that and now has a
first-rate history of the war. Another
book is made of clippings and pictures
of the great coal strike, another Of
the faces Of great men and another is
all about President Roosevelt. One
book contains an odd assortment of
pictures Of art and historical subjects
clipped from the illustrated periodi-
calls. A man who was writing book
about the Venezuelan situation offered
him SIS for his scrapbook.

Che Fees in Early sprin..

In looking over colonies early in the
spring choose warm, sunshiny day,
and be careful not to chill the brood
by long exposure. If you open hive,
know just what you want, and do it
expeditiously, and close up the hive
again. If you have the bees packed in
chaff, do not be in hurry to remove
the packing, as the bees spread the
brood and arrange matters for the tenn
perature the packing gives. and should
you remove the packing too early some
brood may be chilled and the colony
cannot make headway as rapidly.

The Hog and the Earth.

There is an affinity between the hog
and the earth that should not be ig-
nored. Floors are all right to feed on.
but hogs confined on floors are in an
unnatural position and will not do WELL
Floors are especially repugnant to
brood sows both before and after far
rowing. But remember that mud is
worse than hard floor. Hogs should
have a bed on dry earth to sleep on.
and they can do very well without
mud at any time.

Buying Cheap Fertilizers.

Most OF the troubles farmers have
had with commercial fertilizers were
due to the fact that they paid high
prices for articles of little or no value.
To illustrate: The analysis of certain
fertilizer for which the manufacturer
asked $3.50 per ton was recently sent
! to the writer, and, taking the figures
Of per cent as given by the manufac-
turer as a basis, and deducting from
them the proper per cent Of the three
plant foods, nitrogen, potash and phos-
phoric acid, we found the actual value
Of the fertilizer to be less than $14, bas-
ingredients named In the open market
Add to this the cost Of mixing and
bagging and the price might run up
to a trifie over $14, leaving for the
manufactures and his selling agents a
profit Of over $40 per ton. 1t Is true
that the mixture as submitted was
what might be termed a low grade fer
tilizer, and 1t is doubtful If the analysis
could be relied upon to figure out the
value mentioned. This is but one evil
dence Of what farmers have to contend
with In buying cheap fertilizers, and
an argument in favor of buying the
higher grades of commercial fertilizers,
even at the advanced price, as we'll as
most forcible argument in favor OF
buying the ingredients needed and do
ing the mixing at home. AS matter
of fact we have paid for the valueIess
basis of fertilizers TOO long; and paid
too much for 1t; 1t is time we learned
what to buy and how to buy it to ad-.
