School for the Deaf.

The 6fty-third annual opening of
deaf took place on Sept. 9. During
the first and second days 172 pupils
were enrolled. This is 48 more than
were registered during the correspond
ing period last year. and with one ex-
ception, that of the year 1898, consti-
tues the largest initial enrolment in
the history of the institution,
The dormitories for the girls are all
filled, and no new applicants can be
admitted to this department.
The intellectual training in this in
stitution is secured in the academic
departments, in which there are twelve
teachers in the oral department, six in
the sign department, and one teacher
for the deaf blind. Two new school
rooms have been added, and the faculty
is increased by the addition of two
new teachers. A new science room has
been equipped for the sake of demon
strating to the eyes of these deaf pupils
the things that hearing students easily
learn by listening.
1t is designed to enlarge the efficien-
cy of the trades departments to the
end that the deaf boys may become
bread winners. A new Whitlock press
of modern make has been added to the
printing Office. New tools and modern
repair ing machines have been placed
in the shoe shop and in the carpenter
and cabinet shops. New equipments
have been added where needed. These
shops, with complete manual train
ing outfit, provide generously for the
training of the hand in the manual
trianing and art departments there are
seven teachers.
Realizing that for the deaf no in
spiration from music or from the hu-
man voice can ever be felt, the man.
agement has planned every inspiration
possible through the eye. TO this end
all the school rooms have been decor
ated in restful and harmonious color
Jugs which form a pleasing back
ground for pictures and stationary.

broad, progressive lines, with modern
equipment for the train of the brain,

children. n.-Milwaukee Sentinel.

parish in years and leaves their beauti-
full church free of all debt. Too much
credit cannot be given to those in
charge of the bazaar. Their work
was evidently well done.

Modern Antinuities.

The quest for things antique has
led to systematic forgery and imita-
ton on the part of dealers. Paris Is
the great center Of this deceitful ia.

been discovered in the suburbs thriv-
ing factory for the fabrication Of Egyp-
tan mummies, cases and all. These
are shipped to Egypt, and in due time
return as properly Anticipated discov-

A funny story is now current about
a collector of medieval things. A GER

the order of a dealer in medieval an

the fifteenth century, and received for
his work some two or three thousand
francs. The dealer shipped the Chin
neypiece to Italy, and had it set up.
in a palace near Venice, bringing back
to Paris photographs of the palace and
of the chimneypiece in stu. By means
of these photographs he aroused the
interest Of a rich collector, who sent
his secretary 10 Venice to make sure
that the photographs did not lie. and
on his favorable report, bought the
thing for fifty thousand francs. On
the arrival Of the article at his house
in Paris, he sent for some woIkmen
to open the cases. One of them appear
ed to him to go about the work rather
carelessly, and he demonstrated with
the man. who answered, "Have no

and while there wasn't a line of affec-

was enough in them to show that each

ment made by the parents still stood.
George Schuyler was % years old.
His income now was large enough to
justify him in marrying, and in feel

bureau drawer every morning to find
his wife's purse. George was going

ter Of fact, George Schuyler liked

In a week, but that on his way he
was to stop for a few days fishing
with an old friend on the Beaverkill,
that ideal trout stream which tumbles
down the southern slope of the Cats
kills on its way to Delaware.
George Schuyler took his fly book
and his split bamboo rod on the first
morning after his arrival at his
friends wilderness lodge and started
out to whip the stream for the
speckled beauties. He was in wading

MACHINE TO BLOW GLASS.
One of the Most Marvellous Contriv~
ances in the World of Industry.

One of the Most Marvellous Contriv~
ances in the World of Industry.
Glass has at last been successfully
blown by machinery and, as has gen.
orally been the case when mechanical
means supersede hand methods, ALI
feats of hand-blowing have been out
done.
The secret Of the remarkable inven-
ton is still hidden, but specimens Of
tie work done have been shown. The
cylinders are Of immense size, the larg-
est being thirty inches in diameter and
nineteen feet long.
The new machine is the invention of
John A. Lubbers, a glassblower of AL
legheny, Pa. 1t has been built at the
Alexandria, Ind, branch of the Ameri-
can Window Glass Company's plant.
The process of blowing window glass
is simple in theory, but difficult in
practice. On the end of a long tube
a mass of molten glass is collected.
This is then heated in a furnace and
gradually distended by blowing into
large tube with straight sides.
To accomplish this without the pecu-
liar twisting and manipulation employ
ed by the human glassblower has puz-
zled many clever inventors and the
Lubbers machine was made successful
only after a great many experiments.
Lubbers has invented several labor
saving devices and this latest triumph
is likely to make him many times a
millionaire when it is generally in
stalled.
Skilled mechanics from the Westing-
house factories in Pittsburg have been
working behind barred gates and high
walls for months in the erection and
installation of the machines, which no
man other than old and skilled en-
ployes of the company was allowed to
see.
Patents have not yet been granted
on certain parts Of the machines and
therefore the secrecy.
SO confident is the company OF the
merits of the machine that it is pre-
pairing to spend thousands Of dollars
in it's installation in all Of the forty
one plants controlled by it in various
parts of the country.
1t is expected that the device Will
do away with hand blowers altogether.
So confident are the men that this will
DO the case that many are getting out
of the business. The better class Of
blowers earn from $3.50 to $500 a
month.-New York World.

a SIMPLE .RUSE

a GORGE SCHUYLER belonged
((7 to an old New York family.
~ Helen Ganzevoort also belonged
to an old New York family. Georges
branch of the Schuyler family was
poor. Helen's branch of the Came
WORT family was rich.
The parents of both these young peo-
pie had been the staunchest kind of
friends since they had been old enough
to know what friendship meant, and
friends had the ancestors been for gen
era tons back to the time of the stump
legged Peter. George Schuyler was
FIVE years older than Helen CAME
Soort. There was enough Of the same
Dutch idea left in George to make him
a dutiful son as there was enough
of the same Dutch in Helen to make
her dutiful daughter. George Schuy-
Ter had been brought up to believe
that one day he must marry Helen
Ganzevoort, and Helen Ganzevoort
had been brought up to believe that
one day she must marry George
Schuyler.
The Schuylers were not rich, as has
been said, and when George was IS,
instead of being sent to college he
was shipped west, to see If he could
pick up a fortune Helen was at that
time II years old, and she did not
feel keenly at all the parting with her
prospective husband, and it must be
confessed that George didn't shed
many tears when he said good-by to
this plain little girl with her hair in
pigtails.
George Schuyler went to San Fran
cisco, and there in the course of nine
years he did manage TO pick up what
the farmer calls a tidy bit of money"

Francisco stay, but both times Helen

Oats in Place of Wheat.

There are many localities in which
it does not pay to grow winter wheat.
Possibly because of the low price in
some sections, or for other good rea-
sons. If winter oats will succeed they
may frequently be grown with profit,
for the market price is generally good.
There are many advantages in grow
ing winter oats, particularly in warm
localities, for the season of growth is
during the cool portion of the fall and
spring, so that they fill well, while the
spring-sOwn oats succumb to the warm
summers. In growing winter oats the
seeding should be done early in Sep
TENDER and on good soil. 1t is true
that oats VIII do we'll on less fertilizing
than wheat, but, on the other hand
they pay well for good fertiliZing.
BY sowing at the time specified they
will get a good start and cover the
ground sufficient to protect the roots
during the winter. In the spring they
may be late In starting up, but they
will come unless the winter has beer
sufficiently severe to kill them out
completely. The plan is well worth
trying, at least on a small area.

Hungarian Mi1Iet.

In sections where the hay crop Is
short, one of the best and quickest
catch crops is Hungarian millet. The
seed is comparatively cheap, ranging
from 81 to 1925 a bushel, and the crop
does well on any good soil. In many
localities farmers make a good bust
ness of sowing Hungarian millet for a
hay crop on any ground from which
a crop can be taken by the middle of
August If the crop was a cultivated
one, but little preparation of the soil
is necessary. Shallow p1owing and a
thorough narrowing will probably be
sufficient in most cases. 1t is gener-
ally considered that this millet crop is
worth all it costs to get it, and it Is
particularly valuable for cattle or the
grain may be saved and fed to poultry
during the winter. One Of the most

On thin land deep cultivation will
have a tendency to shorten the yield.
On deep, rich, loamy soil the cultiva-
ton may be deeper.
Pigeons will thrive ON a variety,
grains and grass seeds of all kinds be-
ing suitable, hemp and rape seeds be-
ing also acceptable. sailed fish
should hang where the birds can have
access thereto, and ground oyster
shells, gravel, pure water, etc, should
be provided if they are confined.
This nation is increasing in popu-
lation faster than it is in meat pro-
duction. In the fifty years from 1850
to 1900 the population increased 3.2S
times. Beef cattle increased 2.95;
dairy cattle, 2.6S; swine, 2.O7; sheep,
1873. Considering these figures in con-
nection with our enormous exports it
does not look like the business is 60
ing to be overdone in the next fifty
years. Just what it will be then can
be only a matter of conjecture.
When you go into a seed store to buy
grass seed. examine it carefully, pre-
ferably with a magnifying glass, on a
sheet Of white paper. If you discover
in it, instead of timothy, the seeds of
the white and yellow daisy, plantains,
yellow dock, peppergrass. thistle, pig
weed or wild carrots, or instead of
clover, seeds of the plantain, swamp
weed, wax weed, chicory, or sorrel,
better let it alone. If such seed were
given you it would be poor policy to
take it.

Orchard grass is a slayer. A rough
weedy roadside In New York State
was grubbed over, plowed in spring,
plowcd and narrowed several times in
summer until mellow and fine. Or
chard grass was sown thickly in the
fan. That was fifteen years ago and
the orchard grass stin holds the fort,
keeping out nearly all foul growth and
giving two cuttings a year. Shade does
not injure it much. No other choice
hay grasses can hold their own like
this variety.
