Our New Office Boy.

The new Office boy has the hardest
time that ever. In the first place,
every other boy feels his superiority
by reason Of long service in the busi-
ness. The new boy looks to learn and
learns t. look, but first digging is a
bit awkward, and he feels it. This
morning the information bureau
called up the editorial department to
INQUIRE the date of Abraham Lincoln's
birthday. The new boy received the
message. He went off on a jerky lit
tie circuit around the room, got him
self befuddled and finally landed back
ct the telephone with this message:

he comes in I'll ask him. .-Balti-

Mlean as Pharaoh's Kline"

A. good story of an cid crofter who
appeared before the commission to
apply for a reduction of rent has Just
been told at a meeting in Glasgow.
The number of cattle on the farm led
Sheriff Brand to observe that surely
the croft could not be in such bad
way as it's owner would seek to show.
Och" replied the old fellow, you
should see the bit beasties.' What
like are they?" queried the sheriff.
They're as lean, sir, as Pharaoh's
kline" How lean was that?" pawkily
asked the sheriff, doubtless thinking
that he had cornered the applicant.
But had he? Not bit. Like a flash
came back the answer, $50 lean, sir,
that they could only be seen in
vision. ."-Yorkshire Post.

Placing of Manure.

Instead of spending your hard
earned money for commercial fertiiiZ-
ers, why not pay more attention to
the saving and care of manure and the
placing Of it to the best advantage on
your field? This habit. when intelli-
gently carried out, is like compound
interest on money-the interest soon
doubles the principal. For cotton, po-
tatoes and other vegetables, drill the
manure in the seed bed. For corn put
about a single handful to the hill, at
distance of from three to four feet
apart. Drop one grain Of corn on each
side of the manure and close to it; COW
er and harrow we'll. Cultivate shall
low and often. Be careful not to put
too much dirt to your corn and cotton.

Mayoral Privilege.

A curious privilege attaches to the
Office of mayor of Limerick. From
time immemorial the mayor has
claimed the right to a quarter OF a
ton of coal out of every cargo import
ed into the town. The coal merchants
recently objected to paying this trib-
ute, and a test case was taken to the
local quarter sessions. The magis-
frates decided in favor of the mayor.
That official receives over 100 tons OF
coal from this source every year and
distributes it among the poor OF the
town, although there is no legal rea-
son why he should not use it for his
own private purposes.

Oats For Fowls.

Oats are wholesome for men. wom-
en-, horses, hogs and hens. If you
have not a patch Of oats. you should
sow an acre now, though it may be
late. Allow us here to suggest to the
lady readers Of the Southern Agricul-
turist that a gallon Of oats put on the
fire and boiled ten minutes will be q
gallon and a third next morning, and
if fed to hens warm will fill up their
crops and put them in the notion of
giving the feeder an egg for such a
breakfast. A quart Of wheat bran
added to the warm oats will give
strong bones to fowls and keep their
digestive powers in healthy condi-
ton. -:

Classifying Hides.

1t is stated that packers have agreed
to classify cattle hides according to
the number of warble holes in each
hide. Prime hides must not con-
tain more than four warble holes. 1t
is a well-known fact, and obvious, that
the presence of these grubs is cause
Of much irritation to animals and pro-
duces loss of flesh. The treatment for
this parasite is comparatively simple
and should be promptly applied. There
is little excuse for hides of domestic
cattle being thrown out Of the first.
class by reason Of warble holes.

Sofa Beans Fattening.

AS this is the period of the year
that sofa beans should be planted, the
Agriculturist cannot refrain from urg-
ing its patrons to not neglect this
valuable forage plant. 1t Is easily
grown and it will put into each acre
of soil where grown from SS to $40 of
nitrogen. Plant in rows about three
feet apart. and one bean to each foot
The mature beans are as eagerly
eaten by horses. The bean is as use
full to the horse as cotton seed meal is
to the cow. The writer Of this ex-
perimented with the sofa bean fifteen
years ago. and knows that it is a
valuable plant for stock, and has
known the bean to be parched and
ground as a substitute for coffee. The
fatteDinS properties of the bean is re-
markahle.
In the bean meal there is 36I per
cent. OF protein and 1872 per cent. Of
fat: in linseed meal 33.2 per cent. and
3 per cent. Comparing soy bean hay
and dry corn fodder, the former has
154 per cent. Of protein and 80 per
cent. of fat. while the latter has 3S per
cent. and IL per cent. The green
beans are also twice rs rich in these
respects as green corn. Thus it ap-
pears they afford a convenient feed
for balancing the corn crop to make
it a suitable ration for growing or
fattening stock and for making milk.
Do not neglect to give this valuable
forage plant a place on your farm

A woman in society is obliged to keep
late hours She must attend receptions

quiet evening at home. Her whole time
is. taken up in keeping engagements or en-
tertaining in her own home.
Her system becomes completely run
down as consequence She soon finds
herself in a condition known as systemic

tarrhal nervousness.
If every society woman could know the
value of Peruna at such time, If they
could realize the invigorating. strengthen
ing effect that Peruna would have, how
much misery could be avoided.
Letters from society women all over the
