Barley VIII grow on any soil that will
produce wheat. It is a superior food for
stock. In England IL is used for fattening
hogs instead of corn, and, while It does
not equal corn in producing fat on the
carcass, yet the hogs weigh fully as much
as those fed on corn. as they contain more
lean meat. For the growing pigs It is far
superior to corn. as It provides more pro-

HIS FIRST CHECK.
The Way the Piece of Paper Worried
Thomas A. Edison.

Thomas A. Edison once told friend
the story of his first acquaintance with
any big sum of money. 1t was when
he was struggling with his earlier in
ventions, and he had about as clear
an idea of the value of a bank check
as the man in the moon. He had final
-ly sold his patent on the gold and stock
indicator to the Western Union Tele-
graph company and had called at its
-Office to close the deal. After few
preliminaries he was given a check for
$4,000. He eyed it curiously and APP
peared to be puzzled what to do with
it. Observing his perplexity, General
Lefferts. then president of the Western
Union. told him that If he would go to
the Bank of America, in Wall street,
he could get the cash on his check.
$50 l started" said Edison. latter
carefully folding up the check, and
went toward Wall street. So uncer-
tain was l in regard to that way OF
doing business that l thought while
on the way that II any man should
come up to me and offer me two crisp
$1,000 bills for that piece of paper l
would give him the check very quick
iy."
On his arrival at the Bank of Amer
1ca he half tremblingly showed his
check out TO the cashier. The latter
Scrutinized it closely, gave him
piercing glance and said something
which Edison. being hard Of hearing,
failed TO understand. That was
enough. He was fully convinced that
his check was not worth $4,000 and
again thought as he rushed out of the
bank that any man who would give
him $1,000 for it could have it. He
hurried back to the office of the West
ern Onion and said he could not get
any money A clerk was sent TO the
bank with him to Identify him.
''This man." said the clerk, SIS Mr..
Thomas \. Edison, to whose order the
check is drawn
why certainly Mr. Edison" said
the cashier. 'How would you like your
money-in what shape&'
''Oh, any way to suit the bank; it
doesn't make any difference to me, so
long as get my money"
Edison was given $4,000 in large
bills. After dividing the roll into two
wads of $4,000 each he stuffed one
into each trousers pocket and mode all
speed out of Wall street. The next
day he began work on his first New
