Shallow and Deep Flowing.

1t seems almost needless to urge snal-
low cultivation for the laying by" Of
the corn crop, yet there are ONE who
still insist upon deep cultivation and
ridging for the last time going over
corn. The folly of such procedure,
however, is very evident to any think
ing, we'll posted man. The first culti-
vation should be deep to stir the SUBJ
soil and make room for the roots of the
young plants. The second and possibly
the third civilizations may be fairly
deep, though not so deep as the first.
The last two, it is a settled fact by ex-
pertinent throughout the corr belt,
should be shallow, not more than two
and a half to three inches deep. And
at this time the ground must be left as
level as possible after each cultivation.
The object is a mulch for the preserva-
ton of moisture, and why any thinking
farmer should ridge up his corn, break
ing the roots and exposing a third to q
half more surface to the sun. is a ques-
ton yet to be solved. Though the
statement that corn will take care Of
itself after being laid by" is in a meas
ure true, a constant watch must be
kept 20 break the crust forming after
any heavy rain to keep the weeds from

There seem to be many insists IN this
world, but after all, before hives are
finished. most of them are seen to be fitted
into their places, says the Philadelphia
Young People. The thing which a man
can do. and do best, Is generally that
which is appointed him. If one has a pas

thing, he will make or find a chance some

obtain a degree of proficiency in it. Our
tastes" SAYS one, "are strings pulling US
into place" The taste for books and mu-
sic viii pull one into the place OF libraries,
songs and sweet sounds, inevitably, inva-
riably. There may not be complete gratlh-
cation, nor perfect development OF exist
ing talent, but the taste that dominates
the man and the circumstances. The
strings pull, and with definite results. In
spite of difficulties, Elihu BurrItts taste
for books pulls, even at the blacksmlths
forge. and Abraham Lincoln lies at fulI
length upon the cabin floor to read by the
light Of the flaming brands. Did not these
men, and m%ultitudes of others, ind their

Such notable and instructive relish Tor
the best things is God-given, and the be-
stowal is one Of the means whereby the
place is found. 1t is often far better to be
thus pulled into place than to be born
in it.
What is the duty, then? 1t IS twofold:
Strengthen these strings that pull by eul-
tivating to the utmost the taste Tor the
Est things, determined not to stop short

and never be discouraged by obstacles
which seem to hinder reaching the place
toward which the soul is longing and the
possibility of doing the best work.

not see the reporters. but she wrote out
a statement which expressed her
thanks to Americans and newspapers
on this side for their efforts in her be-
half during her Imprisonment. The
statement is as follows:

as well as business reasons, prevent my

my fellow American men and women L

pressing my everlasting gratitude as

them for their congratulations on my

for me during the voyage. that quiet

Fine voices, it is said, are seldom

diet prevails. Those Italians who eat
the most fish those of Naples and
Genoa have few fine singers among
them. The sweet voices are found in

not of the towns. Norway is not a

Power of an Ideal.

A beautiful statue once stood in the
market place of an Italian city. 1t was the
statue of a Greek slave girl. 1t represented
the slave as tidy, well dressed and hand
some. A ragged unkempt, forlorn street
child, coming across the statue IN her
play, stopped and gazed at it IN admira-
ton. She was entranced and eaptivated
by it. She gazed long and a~dmiringly.
Moved by a sudden impulse, she went
home and washed her face and eombed her
hair. Another day she stopped again be-
fore the same statue and admired 1t, and
received new inspiration. Next day her
tattered clothes were washed and mended.
Each time she looked at the STATUE she
fund something in its beauties 2ntil she
was a transformed child.-Ireasury OF Re

Dairymen find it difficult to carry the

summer grains is c~ottonseed meal, for
while feeding it will not materially in

nearly to the standard and will keep
up its quality, which is quite as i'm

quantity fed varies according to cir
