Number Of Divorced Persons.

(Wm. E. Curtis in Chicago Record-Herald,
There are now 81, 539 divorced peo-
pie 10 the United States, of whom 81,
205 are women and 49, 1884 are men.
The reason for such an excess OF Wo-
men is explained on the theory that
divorced men are more apt to re-
marry than divorced women. There
are very few cities in which the num-
Der of divorced men is greater or even
equal to the number of women.
Omaha is the most conspicuous, for
among its inhabitants are 249 men
and 236 women who have been sapa-
rated from their conjugal mates by
the courts. Chicago is the champion
divorce city, IL has had thatfeputa-
tion for q long time, and although
the 4, 341 divorced poodle who reside
there may not have been separated
by the local courts they have never
theless chosen it as a place of resi-
dence, and they number more than
twice as maly as are found in New
York. Certain other cities have a
similar distinction, although they are
not as conspicuous as Chicago.

K FERTILIZERS.
Some Suggestions as to the Proper
tons of Fcrtilixing Mixtures
for Corn and Cotton.

We have so many inquiries about
mixing fertilizers for different crops
and soils that we wish to say a few
words of suggestion on that subject.
The color of the soil does not
amount o anything. Corn or cotton
will require the same help IN red CT
gray land. Crops do not feed on sand
or clay. so that we see it is not the
clay or sandy soil that affects the
fertilizer needed. Fertilizers are used
simply to increase the available plant
food for the immediate crop on
which they are used.
We do not say tina. all soils are ex-
actly the same in respect to the plant
food they contain, but they are very
nearly the same. Previous culture
and the rotting of vegetable matter
and the state of pulverization each do
influence the solubility of the ele-
ments of plant food in soils. And
these may cause some difference in
the kind and quality of fertilizers
needed.
Corn requires a good supply of pct
ash and phosphoric acid and a very
little nitrogen. If the soil is in good
condition. deeply broken and not

OTHER CROPS TO GROW.
The Southern Farmer Should Not
Depend Upon Cotton Alone as
His Money Crop.

Even in prosperous times we should
not depend lon on our staple crops.
Cotton is a profitable crop when 1T
brings s cents or more, but we can't
feel assured of its remaining at that
price when it has sold so recently at
5 cents and even less. Now while we
can make a living and to spare rails
ing cotton, we should devote some of
our time experimenting with other
crops, hat may be profitably turned
into money in case of a reverse OF
cotton market. First, hops seem to be
a profitable crop. In 1899 the hop
crop of United States made an aver
age yield of sS5 pounds per acre, and
had an average value of s.3 cents per
pound, or about $40 per acre. Peanuts
in same year made an average yield OF
23 bushels per acre, but a person
should make a crop that would far ex-
coed the average. At an average val
ne of 81 cents per bushel, of $14.03 per
acre; with a lot of vines for fodder
and land richer that IT was before, the
statistics show well for this crop. Pep
permint in same year made an average
yield of % pounds per acre, and had
an average value of II cents per
pound; making one acre on an aver
age give a cash return of $685.. only
three states CAV any returns at the
last census on the crop. Chicory was
reported as being raised in six states
at an average income of $24 per acre.
/ have only numeratd here the crops
that look to be possible money crops,
for of course every farmer should
raise plenty of the good things of
the farm to supply his W table for
the entire year, and until he does he
can not expect to take his rightful
position in the front ran. The figures
and the data given are taken from
the last census of the United States,

To have your hens lay well, you must

Many bre elders of hogs and profess

these hogs can be raised in the United

We need to look out for the phos-

ri ate of potash; or: LOO lbs. acid,

cDrding to the condition of the soil.
But as very many farmers AN not
get nitrate and muriate, they must
do the best they can with c. $. m. and
kainit. To such we suggest: 1.2Oo lbs.
| acid, 500 lbs. c. S. n, 500 lbs. KANT.

We have often said that in u ex-

| the other elements r properly SUI

the same as for corn, 12-1-5. Mix:

muriate; or, 1,200 lbs. n. p, 200 lbs.
c. s. m, 600 lbs. kainit.
These will suit on the majority of
fields. Each farmer must use good
common ems and judgment as the
| VARYING conditions demand. 1t is very
difficult to suggest any formula that
| will suit land that is plowed only
three or four inches. No fertilizer is
worth anything to any crop without
water to dissolve it and feed it to the
crop.
Hence the water supply is a very
material point This very often
changes the whole thing. We advise
the use of certain amounts and kinds
of fertilizers The farmer uses them,
but fails to arrange for the necessary
water. He fails, and charges it up to
us as having given him bad advice.
All of advice along this line IS
based upon tile superstition that you

Catarrh Causes Female Diseases.

America is the land of nervous women.
The great majority of nervous women
are so because they are suffering from
some form of female disease. BY far
the greatest number of female troubles
are caused directly by catarrh. These
women despair of recovery. Female
trouble is so common, 30 prevalent,
that they accept itas almost inevitable.
The greatest obstacle in the way of re-
covery is that they do not understand
that it is catarrh which is the source
of their illness.
In female complaint, ninety-nine
eases out of one hundred are nothing
but catarrh.

The Problems of the Pasture.

Quite an interesting and as impot-
tant a question as any with which
the farmers of this country have to
deal is that relating to the pasture
land of our farms. In many parts of
the country the same fields have been
pastures almost from the time the
land was cleared. All the years since,
cropped closely by the hundreds of
cattle which have grazed on them, and
been subjected to the constant wear
and tear of rain, snow and frosts. The
result is that there are wide terri
tories of pasture land all over the
Union which afford very little in the
way of profitable feed.
The problem is: How can we get
good pastures out of these now waste
acres? / have had good success by
following this plan: First clear the
land of all brush and weeds by now
ing repeatedly, then pillow thoroughly.
taking off one or two crops, say corn
followed by oats, with the oats seeded
heavily. Here is a chance for the ex-
ercise of good judgment. 1t is posi-
BILE to was te a good deal of money in
grass seed if one is not careful. Try
hard to get the best possible seed.
Do not think hat because the land 5
to be turned back into pasture it does
not matter so much what we sow.
Timothy should be the basis of the
seed. Then, according to the locality,
mix with 1T Kentucky bluegrass,
white closer, or~chard-grass OF redtop.
Keep the cattle off until the land has
secured a thick, even turf. 1t will not
do to pasture such land before that.
l believe this method will give uni
form, good results.-E. L. Vincent, in
