He is built on the same lines as Joe

has broad shoulders, q deep chest, and
long, muscular arms. He IS very quick,
but he did not impress me as being
much OF a puncher. He may have de-

he knows more about the game than

Louisiana Purchase Territory.
During the centennial celebration in
the Crescent City in December, the
pupils in the public schools were re-

on the Purchase. One of the little
fellows in the primary grade demon
strated that he had learned something
of his subject and that he could tell
what he knew In few words. Listen
Ito the boy: s Il. 4. n

for answer within the week, and, TAX
ing advantage of the permission, cold
ly accorded him by the chief of staff,
to be absent over night, he had gone,
heavy-hearted, to his old friends of the
Iron Brigade, and sought at their hands
the sympathy and consolation to be
expected of men who had themselves
felt that the official atmosphere was
tr1gid where once it had been so fair.
And it was here, on Thursday morning,
while breakfasting with the genial
commander Of the Black Hats and lis
tening to his philosophic advice to
take things coolly" and that "all
would come right" he was surprised by
the coming of a cavalry orderly,
splashed with mud, who bore missive
addressed by the acknowledgement Of
the division and marked Immediate.
With a word of apology to Col. Fair
child and his officers, Benton tore it
open, and two papers fell out. One
read:
Capt. Benton: Enclosed just re-
ceived. The general says you better
come this way where the necessary
orders will meet you, and you can get
what luggage you need. There will be
steamers going all the evening.

house lot was fenced in with a neat
fence, the trees planted in the yard had
been properly cared for and were nice
~ trimmed, no fellow coming to see
the schoolma'am was allowed to hitch
his horse to them, the yard was neat

design and painted neither red nor
white; the interior Of the schoolhouse
was as one might confidently expect, in
perfect keeping with its outside sur
roundings, decorations and equipment,
making it most attractive education

pretty teacher was Of the same get up.

EXPERIMENTS w1rH cow.

We had the pleasure of examining
some thirty different experimental
plats of corn recently at one OF our sag-
ricultural colleges. The corn was all
of one variety, Reids Yellow Dent.
The experiments We're along the line Of
determining the best method of cult
waiting corn and the proper number of
kernels to plant i'll hill. There was
corn just planted and given no cultiya-
ton whatever, experiments in deep
cultivation and shallow, plats where
the brace roots had been cut two inch
es deep, four inches and six inches;
plats given from one to five workings
and others given a late surface cultiva-
ton after the corn cared out There
were tests with planting all the way
from one to five kernels in hill, MAX
Ing altogether the most elaborate and
complete test touching the elementary
principles Of corn culture which we
have ever. seen. The product Of these
plats will later be carefully harvested
and yield determined, and results will
appear In bulletin, which should
have very wide circulation.
