THE ENGINE TOOK FIRE.
tt Spread ts the Deest and Cut Telegraph
 Characterization.

At 12:3O Monday the engine attached to the west bound Santa Fe limited took fire, while stopping at Tehachapi station, on the joint track of the Southern Pacific and Santa Fe.
 The engine was an oil burner and the oil caught fire between the tank and engine. An explosion followed, wrecking the locomotive and setting fire to handsome composite coach behind. Both were destroyed.
 From here the flames spread to the depot, frame structure, which was burned to the ground. There was a large amount of powder in the build- ing and this exploded. The fire, how ever, did not get beyond the railroad property. Telegraph poles and wires were burned down, severing all com municatiOn to the south. None of the passengers or the train crew was injured. The total loss is $5O,OO0.

A Cure for Eczema.

My baby had eczema so bad that it's head was a solid mass of scabs, and it's hair all came out. I tried many remedies but none seemed to do any permanent good until I used De Wits Witch Hazel Salve. The Ec- zema is cured, the scabs are gone and the little One's scalp is perfectly clean and healthy, and it's hair is growing beautifully again. cannot give too much praise to DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve.-Frank Farmer, Bluff City, Ky. In buying Witch Hazel Salve look out for commercials. DeWitt's is the original and the only one con- taining pure Witch Hazel. The name k. c. Dewitt & Co. is on every box. Sold by D. J. Brannen.

Now that Wiju has been made an open port, some one asks where is Wiju. Such pitiable ignorance! Why the merest child should know that Wiju is just across the Yalu river from An Tung in Shing-King, a short distance below Funghwang, and on the same side of the river as Chang sieng. If that is not entirely clear, it is on the same line of railway as An-Ju and the next station west from Ku-SOng. It is also but a few miles from Taku-Chan.

ALL OVER THE HOUSE.
Monos-ans the Correct Thing In Mark
inc Fine Linen.


While the simple initial is per-
fectly correct, the monogram is the
more elegant method of marking
linen. The same initial or mono
gram should be used on all house
hold linen.
French embroidery is the most
approved form of decoration, and
this Is done in fine pure white mer
cerized cotton or linen.
The letters On sheets, pillow cases
and tablecloths are usually three
inches in height; for towels and
dinner napkins two or two and one
half inches in height, and one or
one and one-half inches in height
for smaller napkins.
Sheets are stamped exactly in the
middle of the top end, about two OF
three inches from the hem, with the
top of the letter toward the middle
Of the sheet, 80 that the letter reads
correctly when the sheet is turned
back. Pillow cases are marked IL
the same manner, with letters two
inches above the hem, the lower enl
of letters nearest the hem. The lie.
tiers on towels should be in the SAM
relative position, except when IT,
end is ornamented with draws
work. Then of coilrse the c:nbro.l.
cry should be above it, regardless
Of measurements. Pillow shams arr
marked directly in the center. On
the tablccloths place the letters to-
upward, either bias or straight with
the corner and eight inches from
the edge; on napkins in the same
way, with letters two and one-halt
inches from the edge.

FARMING AS A VOCATION.

It is now becoming more and
more difficult to place young men
advantageously. While it is true
that there is plenty of room at the
top of the ladder, the earnest
struggle for the lower rungs rem
der it a difficult matter to find a
foothold anywhere. Industrial
and commercial undertakings
have been protected in great num-
bers, but the introduction OF ma
chinery has made it possible to
accomplish four times as much as
formerly with the same amount
of men. While there is a good
deal more to do now than for
merlv. there are large numbers OF
people, in proportion, to do It,
and the most favorable calllngs
are over-crOwded.
One feature of the case not gen
erallv considered is that the mod
ern youth is more or less well ed
ucated. Hence there is a umver-
sal preference for situation as
clerks in mercantile establish
ments, and there are not enough
Of them to accommodate one
tenth of the applicants. Women
are adapting themselves to these
occupations. In nearly every
large business house there are to
he found female cashiers, book
Keepers, stenographers and copy
lists. They can perform the work
as well as a man, they work for
less pay, and the employer IS per-
fectly willing they should. This
gives woman an important start
in the race, and the boys must
give way. If the boys once get
in, and develop exceptional tai
ent. they are likely to work their
way up, but if they are not above
mediocrity their prospects are not
bright.
Under these circumstances 1t IS
to be deplored that the old-fash-
toned occupation Of farming is 60
ing out of favor. There is plenty
of room in the United States for
those who have a taste for agrl'
culture and do not mind the exer-
else. Farming is healthy and pro-
motive of longevity. The farmer
who has fair luck with his crops
has about as much comfort as the
average man. If he enjoys fewer
amusements and recreatiOns, his
cares are less. Until all the soil
is cultivated, from Maine to Alas
ka, it is not worth while for any
able-bodied young man to he anx-
ious about making a living. What
is more independent than farm
ing?
Instill into the mind OF your
boy the good results of farmer S
life and he will be apt to listen.

me Best Spray.

The best substance with which 10
spray for all biting insects Is arsenaie
of lead. It remains on the plants long,
or than other arsenical sprays, and will
not injure them at all, no matter bow
slrong it is used, requires no lime and
prac ,icallY no stirring. it is cheal,
easily made and applied.
Dissolve four ounces Of dry CON-
merclal arsenate Of soda and eleven
ounces of dry commercial acetate OF
lead each in one bucket Of water;
when dissolved, mix the two together
and allow this to stand over night,
when the arsenic Ut lead will be form
ed. The contents of this bucket are
then to be added to fifty gallons OF
water. This requires little stirring,
and one can readily see where he Is
spraying without the addition Of lime.
If, however, you do not wish to go
to the trouble of making it, it may be
obtained on the market under the
name OF "Disparne" in a paste torn
with directions.
Let me, in conclusion, caution my
readers that what l have said does not
apply to peach trees. They must
never be sprayed withsarsenical poison.

that section OF the union in which the
public school system has reached its
highest development and in which the
state universities are dominant and
triumphant. Their total salary is
$4,000 a year. President Northop
receives an annual stipend of$7, 500;
Presidents Angel and Drapevs each
receive $1,000 annually; all others
except Presidents Merriheld and Drop

To Preserve Missouri Flora.

The University of Missouri is making
a collection Of all the flora found in
the state. The experience of old
countries shows that as cultivation
becomes more intensive many shrubs
and trees cease to grow that were
once common enough. The plan is to
secure every plant to be found and to
place these in a broad fringe along the
white walks surrounding the campus.
This is not only al inexpensive method
of securing the shrubbery necessary to
beautify the campus but 1t Is believed
that the sbrubbery will in time be
highly priced.

Why the Japs are Short.

From the New York Press.
A man who has N ade his fortune in
the furniture business in this country
and has just returned from an extern
sive trip abroad, including a visit to
Japan, has 1t all guessed out why the
Japanese are so short, and what it is
that will make them taller.
"For ages" be says, ''the Japanese
have been in the habit Of sitting cross
legged or squat on the floor. They
also have a peculiar way Of walking,
owing to the way the native shoes fit
them. Both of these things would,
quite naturally, retard the growth Of
the legs. Americans and Europeans
sit on chairs, walk a good deal and
wear shoes that give freedom to the
feet. The modern chair and the mod
ern shoe are fast gaining popularity in
Japan, and | am sure these will do a
great deal toward lengthening the legs
of the natives. In time. the Japanese
may be expected to attain the average
height of Americans and European:
if they sit and cloth themselves as they
do. -

Tnrnlnr Nm Cow On Pasture.

In changing from dry feed 70 grass.
Ii Is we'll 10 60 somewhat slowly,
especially Il the hOW of milk Is large.
The vounE immature grass, especially
IN early spring, as is we'll known, con-
taius a large amount ct water, 8
condition commonly called "washy -"
Wheat and rye pastures sre Of the
same nature The dry feed ration
should therefore be continued and be
gradually reduced for two weeks or
more, after the grass is large enough
for feeding.
There is some difference of opinion
as to whether milk cows should be fed
grain while on pasture. There is no
question but that q COW will produce
more milk if fed grain while on pasture,
and if a large yield is of more impor-
lance than economy of production,
grain should certainly be fed. Where
a small amount Of grain is fed, corn is
we'll adapted ss 1t will not unbalance
the ration. If large quantities of grain
are fed, other feed should be used in
part, such as bran, gluten meal, oats
or cottonseed meal.
Experiments made by the Cornell
experiment station, covering four
years, showed that while an increase
in milk yield was secured from grain
feeding, it was not economical to
prpduce it in this way. In these ex.
perlments the pastures supplied an
abundance Of nutritious grass.

Fruit Not Injured.

Word received at the State Univer-
sity Indicates that the cold spells have
hive not seriously injured the fruit
crop. Reports indicate that a little
damage has been done to the straw
berry and other crops now IN bloom in
south Missouri, but where the fruit has
not yet bloomed practically no damage
has been done by the cold. DR.. j. G.,
Written of the University Of Missouri
says that the damp weather accom-
panying the recent cold snap has bad
much to do with preventing injury to
the fruit crop. "The dryer the
weather u.s." said DR.. WhItten, "the
more likely the cold IS to do injury. "
Reports indicate that the south central
part Of Missouri will have a full peach
crop. In the southwest and southes't
parts Of the state and along the Mis-
sissippi and Missouri rlvers there will
probably be twenty five per cent Of q
crop. In other sections Of the state,
according to reports received, there
will be no peaches except on a few
trees particularly we'll situated. The
prospect for apples, pears and most
plums is better than it has been since
1897, when Missouri produced her
banner crop of these fruits.
