MILLIONS FOR A MUSEUM.
New National Structure Will Cost an
Immense Sum of Money.

New National Structure Will Cost an
Immense Sum of Money.
Plans have been completed for the
new $3500000 structure that Is TO be
erected for the National Museum In
Washington. The regents OF the
Smithsonian Institution are superin-
tending this work, and 1t Is their idea
when the new building is completed TO
have a complete arrangement of the
exhibits now In the National Museum
and the Smith sonlan Institution build
ings.
The new structure Is 10 be devoted
to the scientific collections of the gov
eminent, the present National Museum
building to the industrial arts and the
old Smithsonian building TO the Smith
sonlan and National Museum library
and art collections. The regents pro
pose that the scientific collection In the
new building shall be the finest in the
world, and an officer of the institution
makes the statement that already
many Of the branches to be covered
have reached perfection that is not
equaled in any other museum In the
world. even the great British museum
The chief subjects to be covered are
biology. anthropology, geology, zoolo
gy, botany and American history. The
present National Museum building will
be given up to great exposition Of
industrial art. including the already
immense and unique collection of the
museum, and many additions that the
regents are planning to secure as rap
idly as possible. The museum will be
modelled In its scope and general plan
after the Victoria and Albert Museum
of Great Britain. Among the chief
departments will he those of land
transportation. boat models. nipple
ments of war and electrical apparatus,
of which the museum already has rich
collections.
The plans for the Smithsonian build
Ing contemplate the creation in time
of magnificent library and art gal
lery. The scientific library OF the in
stltution is already one of the finest
In the world. Its scope will be broad
ened and II will become much more
important unit In the general scheme
of the institution. The plans for the
art gallery are as yet tentative. The
new structure will be 4S6 feet long
and $40 feet broad, with height OF
four stories. Brooklyn Eagle.

Sole and Farming.


If you tell the average Missouri
farmer that he ought to use II little
more science in his business he will
reply that the advocates of scientific
methods are mere theorists; that they
do very well in their way, but they
can't teach practical agriculturist
anything in his line. Robert II. Kern,
a st. Louis lawyer, has lately given the
conservative farmers Of Macon County
4 lesson in scientific agriculture that
has opened their eyes. In settling an
estate he came into possession of some
almost worthless city property. This
he traded for some land in Macon
County which seemed almost equally
valueless. The larger part of 1t was
under water most Of the time, and
good crop never had been raised on it.
Mr. Kern called in an engineer and
had him make plans for a drainage
system. Then he called In a farmer
ture and put him TO work. The land
was drained perfectly, a bog became a
fine meadow. and where a swamp had
been from time immemorlal Il bumper
corn crop was raised. Now that farm.
which, when Mr.. Kern got it, would
hardly have brought So per acre. is
worth $50 per acre. Ten thousand dol
lars worth Of corn was raised on it
last year. 1t is said half the dwellers
in the Charlton bottoms are now talk
ing about hiring scientific engineers as
