PROVERBS ABOUT CARS.

a car in the desert is only man.
The ear himself can get muddy if
he steps in the mud.
Even the crown of the car cannot
cure headache.
The cars crows cannot have more
than two horns.
\ drop of water in the eye of the
ear costs the country a great many
handkerchiefs.
When the car makes you a present
of an egg he expects of you hen.
The ear can disturb the earth. but
he cannot move it from its axis.
The car knows not misery because
he does not live i'm Il cabin.
The arm of the car is long, but it
cannot reach to the sky.
The voice Of the car has an echo
even when there are no mountains.
The ukases of the ear are worth
nothing if God says not amen"
The horse which has once been
mounted by the ear neighs continu-
ally.

the prior chemical analysis, was most
marked and the application most
generous.
Mr. Harvey W. Wiley, chief chemist
Of the department of Agriculture,
agrees with the analytical chemists
that the proper analysis will show in
what directions the soil is deficient in
plant food, yet at the meeting of the
Association of Agricultural Expert
ment Stations last fall, Dr. Wiley said I:
when man sends me a specimen
Of given soil, and writes, Please
aualyze this soil and tell me what
crops can grow on it, l send him
word, Ask your soil itself what you
can grow on IT. in that way, asking
your question direct to the soil, you
can get your answer, and in no other
way. Ky Farmer q Breeders.

BOSTON PEOPLE.

Rev. Robert Collyer, whose long and
successful ministerial career has beer
passed chiefly in Chicago and New
York, finds the complete satisfaction
of Bostonians in their city a source Of
amusement. He says he once dreamed
that he was in the vicinity of the
pearly gates and saw two ladies ap.
proach, seeking entrance.
"Where are you from" asked st.
Peter.
"We're both from Boston," replied
one of the ladies.
"Well, you can come in,2 said St
Peter, "but you won't like it," A
variation of the same anecdote is the
story of Boston woman who had pass
ed within the gates and was taking her
first look around.

STUDY THE BEEF BREEDS.

There is possibility Of farmers sue
ceedlng with beef production without
the necessity Of sacrificing their milk
and butter breeds At present the
calves on dairy farms are sold at an
early age and the majority sof the
farmers go on the market and buy their
dairy COWS, IN so doing also failing to
have good stock at any time The
temptation offered by better prices
will induce them to retain their
calves and endeavor to improve
with the beef breeds.
Well-bred calves of the beef breeds
sometimes reach the market when
thev are two years old, and three
years is considered ample time to
turn out a good animal in the market
for beef Some cattle have been
known to average a gain of two more
pounds per day from birth to market
that is, steers $50 days old have
weighed l, 2GO pound Three year, d
steers have made gain of so pound
per day during lite, and when dress
ed would average two third of their
live weight Farmers who use grades
may mot accomplish such result but

using all sorts of animals, and look

ing to the future for developments.
Some dairy farmers, who except to
depend solely upon milk and bntter,
already have cows lhat are more prone
to produce beef than milk.
1t the farmer can produce animals
that grow more RAPIDLY than those he
has been keeping, and also save a
whole years time in reaching the
market, he will not neglect the op-
portunity, and Will combine beef
production with that Of marketing
milk and butter, the result being
that the manure heap will be larger
every year, his crops greater and the
capacity Of his farm for keeping more
stock be increased, while his advanta-
ges for converting his crops into
articles that are more salaqle, and
which will bring higher prices and
more profit, will be enlarged.
When Southern and Eastern farm
ers begin breeding for what they
want, ceasing to buy their own COWS
and raising for themselves all animals
Kept on the farms, they will then
make a step in advance, which will
add largely to their productions and
give them opportunities in the future
which they have neglected in the past

DO FERTILIZERS WORK HARM?

As TO how and why commercial
fertilizers affect plant life and there
fore pay, there appears to be a wide
difference Of opinion between the
scientists The Government Bureau
OF Soils emphatlcally discredits the
theory that the analysis of particu-
lar soil will reveal Deficiencies In GER
tain chemical constituents, which can
then be prohtably supplied by the use
OF commercial fertilizers containing
the lacking elements, and presents
some cogent reasons for its skeptlc-
ism on this point Prominent among
these is he fact that in no instance
does the analytical chemist advise
the application Of as much fertilizers
as Is indicated to De lacking by their
analysis
That commercial fertilizers prom ote
plant growth under certain conditions
the bureau admits, and It is conduct
ing experiments with a view to ascer-
tanning the reason why. 1t is still
too early to say precisely what this
influence is, but some startling sug-
geshons are advanced by the soil ex.
erts. For instance they say that 1t
appears thus far that the chemical
fertilizers usually act on the plants
rather than on the soil, enabling it
to absorb and digest a greater amount
of plant food than would otherwise
be possible precisely as dose Of pep
sin acts on the human stomach or,
again, as a stimulant, just as whisk-
ey or nltro-glycerine will act on the
human circulation.
The belief is generally entertained
in the bureau that the amount of
fertilizer when the most lavish ex-
ponent of this class Of farmers advo-
Gates is too small to act on the soil, or
even to be distinguished in, any sub.
sequent analysis of the SOIL even
though the deficiency, as shown by

decided upon yesterday by Harry James

Four performances a week win be

congressman Scores President for
Arraying Executive Arm on Side Of
Despotism.-Encourae Nom Union.
ism Under Guise Of the "Open Shop"
Which Makes Him Labor's Foe.

WASHINGTON, April 14.-ln the
houes of representatives today, under
the license of debate, Mr.. Livernash OF
California discussed the labor question
and attacked President Roosevelt for
having turned the executive arm OF
the government against the men who
work. That arm, he said, had arrayed
itself on the side of special privilege
and despotism, and associated itself
with the men who hire and against
the men who are hired.
Referring to the Miller case in the
government printing office, he said
that the president had embraced the
opportunity, in a letter to Secretary
Cortelyou, on the subject of the find
ings of the anthracite coal strike CON-
mission, to express himself in language
which clearly identified him with the
"open shop in private employment.
He said that the president of this
country who goes forth and seeks to
place a barrier in the way of labor
unions by encouraging non-unionism
under the guise of an "open shop" Is
the deadliest common foe of labor.
In a personal way, he divernash)
held the president in the highest es
TEEN, but he regarded him today "as
the man of all Americans, worse than
Rockefeller, Carnegie and Morgan, as
to labor unions Mr.. Livernash also
attacked the membership of the house
and said there was in that body O.
distinct intolerance of laboring men
and their acts.
