WILLING TO REPEAT.
Young Hunter Captures Something
More Than Game on One of
His Expeditions.

On the Kronprinz Wilhelm, one moon
light May night, young man and a girl
were discovered making love- The news
of this discovery spread among the pas
sengers, and many joke was cracked,
says the Kansas City Journal But Sen.
ator N. B. Scott, of West Virginia. said
In the smoking-room:
'"There is nothing to laugh at here. In
nocent love-making is natural in the
young This fact was well brought out
by an adventure that happened to a
friend of mine, years ago, in the noun
tains of West Virginia.
The young man was hunting. He came
to lonely cabin, and, being thirsty. he
knocked at the door for drink The drink
was handed to him by girl SO charm
ing that, with a smile, he said:
Would you be angry if l should of
fer you a dollar for kiss"
No, SIR the girl answered, with q
little blush.
$50 my friend took the kiss, and then
he gave the maiden the dollar. She bal
anced it in her hand moment She
knitted her pretty brows in perplexity.
!" What, she asked, shall l do with all
this money!
why, anything you please, my dear
said my friend.
Then she murmured, 4 think III
give it back to you, and take another
kiss"

CORN IN WET SEASONS.
A Subject of Great Importance That
Is Rather Apt to BE Neglected
by Most Farmers.

A correspondent asks for information
says the agricultural papers frequently
teach how to conserve moisture and
handle the crop during drought, but not
the reverse. This, if true, is due to the
fact that in the corn belt the corn crop
suffers more frequently from lack of
moisture than from too much.
The first attention in case of excessive
wetness, should be given to drainage
The thing to do is to get rid of the sur
plus water in the soil and open bitches
or tile drains will go far towards put
ting wet lands in proper shape for crop
ping. In the case of uplands or lands
with natural drainage, or where the
drainage is insufficient, evaporation
may be fastened by rolling or packing
the surface and by ridge cultivation.
All the rules of surface cultivation and
the injunctions to keep dust mulch,
apply to droughty conditions Grass
lands can be made to give up their mois-
ture more rapidly by rolling, as this
packs the particles of soil more closely
and increases capillarity. Ridge plow-
ing without narrowing or otherwise
fining the soil increases evaporation by
exposing larger areas of soil surface to
the air. Lands subject to overflow and
low or fiat lands generally can nearly
always be improved in character by
proper drainage. This is subject rather
apt to be neglected by many farmers,
but one of great mportance.-Rural

THE COOKING OF PEAS.
Particulars of the Process WITH
Which All HOusekeepers Are
Not Familiar.

Although it is generally believed
that the green pea-the unripe fruit
of the Pisum sativum-is less nutri-
tious than the dried, the green vegeta-
BILE is far more highly esteemed as
delicacy, it's fine flavor making it
great favorite. Who does not appre-
ciate that rare combination for a
spring dinner lamb, with mint sauce
and fresh green peas. Young and ten
der green peas are easily digested, as
their gluten or vegetable casein is not
SO tough and their particles are more
easily separated. Young peas also
have a higher per cent. of the tissue
forming element than the dried, as the
starch develops in excess to the nitro
gen in process of ripening, says the
Washington Star.
The Romans seem to have been ig-
norant of the use of green peas, which
were cultivated for food by the Greeks,
and grown in very early periods in
both China and India. The varieties
known to use were introduced into
England from the continent about the
eighteenth century. Sugar peas are a
Nsriety of peas of which the pods and
seeds are both used. These are very
sweet, and are gathered when the seed
is scarcely developed at all. They are
stewed same as young peas, and when
used at the right period are very tasty.
Marrowfat is late variety of peas,
growing very large, but of very tender
substance.
Fresh green peas cooked in the usual
way contain from ~ to 16 per cent. of
carbohydrate, of which a considera BILE
amount is sugar, but they quickly lose
their sweetness after they are gath
cred, and when they are kept for "A
hours or over after they are picked a
teaspoonful or more of sugar added
to the water in which they are cooked
will, in a measure, restore their flavor
and sweetness. Stale, wilted peas may
be partly restored to their pristine
freshness If they are thrown into cold
water after Smelling and allowed to
remain for an hour before cooking.
On the other hand very fresh peas are
better if shelled when ready to cook
them, and Immediately covered with
boiling sailed water.
The simplest and best mode of cook
ing fresh green peas is to plain-boil
them in above manner for ten or Is
minutes, and as soon as they are ten
der drain and dish with piece of but
ter, shake salt and pepper over them.
This is called a fAnglaise. A la Fran
caise is to cook them with little bull
lion or broth, sugar and a roux-
which must be added sparingly or the
mixture will be too thick. Peas that
have become little old had best be
cooked until they can be pressed
then made into soup or crequettes or
rarebit, as they will be more digestible
and palatable this way.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1903-07-10

cured, and seeds formed early, it was de-
cided to leave them for seed crop. By
hand picking the ripest pods good
quantity of seed was secured, although
the crop as whole could not be said to
have matured.
The growth of the cowpea is some
what similar to the soy bean, although
it is longer vine and is more trailing
by nature. 1t is not likely that it will
succeed as grain crop in the northern
states, but it promises to be a useful
crop sown in a mixture with corn for en-
silage. Search is being made for varie-
ties that will climb up the corn plants
when they are planted rather thin, in
order that they may be cut with the corn
harvester and run through the silage
cutter at the same time the corn is cut
It is believed that this will afford nice
ly balanced ration, and that a better
mixture and more economical growth
can be made than where each crop is
raised separately.
They appear to do we'll on any land
adapted to corn, and are said to add nj
trogen to the soil in large quantities.
They are especially adapted to bringing
back into fertility land that has been
exhausted by long cropping.-Prof An
drew Boss, in Orange Judd Farmer.

Cheap Plan of Narrowing,

l notice so many western farmers
advocating the narrowing of all
ground plowed each day, or rather
narrowing what is plowed during the
day. before quitting time. Now I will
tell you how we work it. We plow
right along till we turn and one can
look back and see nice smooth sur
face and have full days work of
blowing, remarks writer in Nebraska
Farmer. We take single section of
harrow and one horse. Tie the horse
to the outside of the furrow horse and
there you are. We use tow-bottom
gang pillow and this one section will
harrow the ground twice and that be-
fore it has time to dry out This is a
splendid way to exercise that extra
horse

THE FARM IN SUMMER.

Salt the weeds in the sheep pasture;
the sheep will then finish them.
Are the drains so made and opened
as to save the washings from the
highways?
Don't ever steal any crop from the
soil. Return thanks in the form of an
abundant fertilization
AS long as American farmers sell
the rough products of the soil to other
people to be worked up into finished
products, they are dividing the profits
which they should themselves reap
and are also taking fertility from
their farms they should keep in the
soil.
Sow some catch crop among the
corn to keep the ground covered dur
ing winter. Crimson clover, mustard
and other crops will do. If after the
harvest of any crop it was intended
to leave the ground bare, don't do it.
Sow something; keep the land covered
throughout the year.-Farm and
Home.

sheet-iron washing tub and fill two or

using the best oil that is recommend
ed for oiling binders and mowers. Dip
all the parts of the harness so as to
cover well with oil, giving the leather
time TO get saturated with oil. Their
